Chapter 238, the opening feast
After Jiang Lan finished speaking, he left Lu Pingchuan and went into the house alone, although it was a good intention, but such an attitude was really difficult to make people grateful. Lu Pingchuan watched his back disappear www.biquge.info pen fun pavilion, turned back to Elise and his party who came forward to inquire about the reason, and had no choice but to stop and explain the incident lightly, so that he could get out.
After an unpleasant welcome ceremony, the internal testing and observation camp of the 5th "Law of Predation" is basically all there. At the opening ceremony that night, Lu Pingchuan successively met many players who had more or less contact with each other in the fourth closed beta, in addition to him and Xia Yan, Jiang Lan, Situ Nan, Li Wenjie, Pan Bing'er, Zhong Ming, Chen Modi and others, there are 3 women and 19 men in the "Caesar" camp, a total of 22 players, a total of 30 people. In addition to the fourth "Caesar" camp, the "Crassus" wearing blue armbands and the "Pompeii" wearing yellow armbands were also fully present, with a total of 90 people in the three camps, with no additional additions or alternates.
After a short and tedious opening speech, the ceremony hall quickly turned into a bustling dinner hall. After repeating the rules of the fifth closed beta test and the huge prizes, they instructed the logistics staff to bring the whole pot of stew, the whole turkey and the bacon and sausages in the basket, and beckoned everyone to start the banquet.
There were no delicate knives, forks and goblets, only wolf-like hands and gobbling crowds—the tents of the banquet hall were occupied by a peculiar atmosphere: a strange look of excitement on everyone's faces, as if the patient was snatching a life-saving cure, and everyone was tearing at the meat on the table that he thought was the best.
In order to prevent trouble, there is no alcohol at the banquet, but even with juice and soda, there are still many people with drunken faces on their faces, and people who don't know each other hook their shoulders and call each other brothers, but the next second they can beat each other for a piece of meat that they don't even know their own mothers...... All of them were so engrossed in the food and music that it seemed as if tomorrow was not coming. None of them intended to listen to what was being said by those around them, nor did they deliberately want to express anything to others, all of them were just fighting for food and pleasure in the dimly lit tents, laughing, glaring, singing, or sorrow...... Everyone is immersed in the double encirclement of loud voices and humble egos, everyone is immersed in absolutely amplified emotions, but no one thinks about tomorrow, no one thinks about the next moment.
Lu Pingchuan sat on a chair in the corner of the tent with a turkey wing in his mouth, coldly watching this grotesque group portrait like a comedy scene. The members of the "Caesar" group also ate nothing, except for Xia Yan holding a glass of juice in a daze in the corner on the other side, and Jiang Lan didn't know where to go, the three camps didn't seem to be much different at the moment. Lu Pingchuan was biting the chicken wings and was distracted, but he saw Elise smiling at him with a bottle of soda, and sat down directly next to him and said, "Can I sit here?" ”
“…… You've sat down. Lu Pingchuan's attitude was obviously not enthusiastic, but Elise didn't mind, shook the drink bottle in her hand, turned her head and smiled at Lu Pingchuan: "It's nothing, but I suddenly remembered that when I saw you for the first time, you were also eating meat like this." ”
“…… Cough! Lu Pingchuan was almost choked by her teasing, turned his head and picked up the cup and poured a large sip of juice before he eased up, turned his head and said with a displeased face, "Are you here to make fun of me?" ”
"No, just wanted to tell you something that might be useful." Elise pointed to the "Pompeii" camp not far away with the bottle in her hand, and whispered to Lu Pingchuan, "That big blond man, I think you have already met this afternoon - his name is Joffrey. Marcelo, the champion of the first closed beta, was born as a mercenary, scored at the top of the endurance and explosive tests, and had a very irritable personality, which is a typical tyrant...... But don't be fooled by his reckless image, he may be a MacArthur-like personal hero, but he also has a cool head and a strong desire to survive...... I've never seen anyone more desperate for victory than he has in the entire four closed betas, and if you run into him in an encounter, I pray that you will turn the tide of good. ”
After introducing Joffrey, Elise turned her head and gestured to a brown-haired man in the first seat of the "Crassus" camp with a wine bottle: "That's the conductor of 'Crassus', the winner of the second closed beta, Arthur. Ramíreo, who is the antonym of Joffrey, is calm and deep, rarely revealing emotions to make people wonder what he is thinking...... As a former British marine, he is the perfect combination of a gentleman and an executioner, and he is very tolerant and polite outside of the battlefield, but if you meet in a confrontation, you better not be out of his sight. ”
As he was talking, Lu Pingchuan saw the seemingly simple brown-haired middle-aged man in the middle of the "Crassus" camp raise his glass slightly, and nodded at him and Elise. Lu Pingchuan had a general understanding of the personal styles of the two opponents, but was surprised by the significance of Elise's move: "Why are you telling me this? (To be continued.) )
