Chapter 75: The Banquet Begins!
"No wonder the land in the city is so exaggerated." Fenrich exclaimed directly.
One square meter, tens of thousands of upwards, but it is really unacceptable, and the accommodation fee for one night is constantly refreshing everyone's facial features, it turns out that the other party has no intention of selling at all.
Gu Cheng was not happy because he was close to the truth and solved many doubts in his heart, but became even more worried.
"Huh. So what? Do you treat the stars in the sky the same way you treat the stars in the wild as you do in the city? ”
"How is that possible? Only some brainless guys in the wild will give their faith. To put it bluntly, our relationship is more like that of partners, asking for each other's needs. ”
"The camp depends on them for its existence, but they are not the owners of the camp. Except for some who are not strong-willed and become their dependents, there is no one to give them so-called faith. The towns in the wilderness are nothing but divisions within your cities. ”
"Then why divide it into the wild and the city? According to you, what is the difference between the city and the wilderness? ”
Fenrich and Mina stared at each other, munching on the little dessert that the butler had brought them, and were listening attentively!
The content of the chat was very novel, and it successfully aroused the interest of the two.
Finrich couldn't help but join in.
Nilton glanced at Fenrich, "There are camps in the wild, but not in the city. There are only safe houses in the city, and there are safe houses in the wild. ”
"The existence of the city does not depend entirely on the stars in the sky, and the stars are treated in an absolutely brutal and predatory attitude, while the wilderness maintains the existence of the camp through sacrifices, taking what each other needs."
Every time he chatted with Nilton about some secret knowledge, Gu Cheng would feel that his three views had been looted.
In the wild, in the city?
How does this division feel a bit like the city and the countryside?
Originally, I thought that Shining Gold Town was just a lonely town, built to protect the residents of the city! It was all about acting as a protective umbrella, but now that you think about it, it doesn't seem to be the case.
There are also inhabitants of the city in the wilderness...
It's not the relationship between the island and the ocean as I imagined. The boundaries between the city and the outside are no longer buffer zones that can be separated from each other.
So is the carrion village where his safe house is located in the wild or in the city?
"All in all. Although your city has some advantages in terms of the trial of the living, it is only an advantage. At least we in the wild can join in some way. Otherwise, those of us from the wild may only have a job for you. ”
Neil Gu pursed his lips, his face unangry.
"Then what are you talking about so much? After a long day, everyone was on the same starting line. ”
"I thought that if the wild forces wanted to enter the world of the living, they had to go through some of the rules of the 'Safe House' in our city?" Fenrich waved her hand, looking bored.
Looking at this guy Nilton, he looked slightly depressed. I thought I was pretending to be pitiful, and I wanted to ask for something?
As a result, it turned out to be just whining here.
Bah!
What are you pretending to be a second generation, and those of us who are worth a clean name?
Gu Cheng took this opportunity to leave the venue abruptly and returned to his dormitory, ready to rest. After a few days of travel, in the field tent, my sleep quality was seriously affected.
In order to better participate in tomorrow's banquet, I must recharge my energy. Because it was determined that there was no danger at this banquet, Gu Cheng slept peacefully.
Although I don't know the specific identity of this guy in the wild, his words about this are still very convincing.
In the midst of the extraordinary chaos, there is some unknown order. This is a system of rules that is unique to cemeteries.
In some places, you can kill at will, while in other places you have to follow a system of rules.
Goblin Dark Magic School, although there is no rule that killing is not allowed in the school. But after the battle for the ownership of the dormitory, Gu Cheng rarely saw the existence of killing each other in the wild.
There are no disputes between the lower grades and the upper grades. Everyone seems to have their own things to do, and delaying a moment seems to be a stain on life.
All in all, as a guest invited by the manor, just follow the rules.
Within the confines of the manor, it is easy for the lord of the manor to impose a rule that cannot attack each other.
It's like you're in a dilapidated safe house, and you're in a state of complete omnipotence.
The next day, a noise came from outside the window, interrupting someone's intention to continue in bed.
Gu Cheng's eyebrows moved slightly, he got up sleepily, rose to a lazy waist, and had no choice but to end the night's sleep.
The banquet is not held at night, but during the day.
Yes, it is only during the day that the stars in the sky will be revealed one by one.
At night, there is nothing in the sky except black.
Knock knock!
"Who?"
"The time for the banquet is approaching, and the host has sent me to guide the guests who have come from afar."
It was still the meticulously dressed butler, bent his back slightly, waiting quietly at the door.
Gu Cheng washed up briefly and tidied up a little, and his denim jacket was stained with dirt all the way.
Only then did he push the door and nod to the butler.
The doors of the adjacent rooms had already opened, and in addition to the three of Nilton, there were other guests mixed in.
Most of the strength is also under the extraordinary, and even the dead have not yet been completely transformed (into the yin), it seems that ,,, task given by the adventurer's union is indeed at the level of "infancy".
No danger, no requirements.
A team of 16 people was led by the butler to the main castle again.
The two black stone gates five or six meters high made a sore sound, and they were easily pushed open by the old housekeeper with both hands.
Looking at the two doors with a thickness of 30 cm, Gu Cheng felt an inexplicable tooth ache.
Sure enough, isn't even the butler in the manor a simple role?
"According to the rules, you will be the spectators to witness this Scarlet Banquet take place. After that, the estate will give you access to a private library to make a copy of a book. ”
Regarding these incentives, the Adventurer's Guild has also marked a detailed explanation, and Gu Cheng does not have much hope for the so-called rewards.
As the saying goes, the more you give, the greater the return. is just an ordinary spectator, and it is not a very important role.
The right to reproduce books is not very precious.
"Oh, yes. Most of you probably haven't been in or out of the world of the living. Here I will nagged a few words, and I will popularize some simple knowledge with you. ”
The middle-aged butler led everyone through the cascading stairs and corridors covered with various murals, and finally stopped in a hall.
A scarlet patterned carpet is carpeted all over the floor, and a three-meter-tall vampire statue stands directly above! On the left and right walls is a portrait of the Baron of the Manor, courteous and with wavy curly hair!
With snow-white hair, pale blue eyes, aristocratic clothes, and all kinds of features, he is completely dressed as a bard.
Talking to people, sitting, or laughing, all of them are photographs of the baron's life.
The level of the painter is very clever, and the gentle and elegant temperament is vividly reflected in the pale blue ocean pupils.
The main hall is empty, except for the frescoes and statues, furniture, dining tables, these no supplies, do not exist here!
In the center of the main hall, there is a conspicuous concave mirror.
It is oval in shape, about two meters in height and about one meter in width. The glass mirror reflects all the faces of everyone, and the deeply sunken part seems to widen the field of vision, and all the scenes in the hall are included in it without missing a trace.
"Although the banquet was held inside the manor, it was also embedded in a different space in the cemetery!"
"For different purposes, each banquet will have guests from different living worlds very warm and positive.
And what you have to do is very simple, that is, you don't have to do anything! Don't stop it, don't promote it, and quietly watch the whole banquet go on. ”
The butler's loud voice detected some echoes in the slightly empty hall!
It seems to be an exhortation, but it is also a warning.
"Then, all of you are standing in front of the Time Gate! An amazing journey is about to begin. ”
Gu Cheng and the four of them, you look at me, I look at you, exchanged glances with each other, got closer to each other, and moved towards the [Time Boundary Gate].
This adventure, to put it bluntly, is to act as a background board for people, do a physical job, and get a meager salary!
Gu Cheng was a little curious at the moment, and he was a little anxious to start all this as soon as possible.
Whether it is the "Time Gate" or the visitors of the "Living World", for Gu Cheng, they are all with a veil of mystery, waiting for him to understand them one by one.
The housekeeper waited until everyone approached each other, and they were already in front of the [Time Boundary Gate], lined up in several squads, and then nodded!
Walk up to the concave mirror and touch your fingers to the mirror.
There were no imaginary ripples, and the blood gradually flowed out of the fingers, and in an instant, the entire mirror surface was completely covered.
The scarlet light gradually condensed from the concave mirror, like a strange little sun.
In the scarlet mirror, Gu Cheng seemed to see a different world.
In an instant, the light had already illuminated the entire hall here, and everyone's eyes were flowering, and a huge force was directly absorbed.
Dizzy, all kinds of lines permeated the body, the body fell straight down, passing through the groggy passage, I don't know how long.
By the time Gu Cheng regained consciousness, he had already appeared on a round table seat.
There are a total of 16 chairs around, which exactly corresponds to the number of people invited this time!
On the round table is a blood-colored light curtain, slightly rippling, and a blurry image appears directly in front of everyone.
It was a strange castle building, a bit like the Baron's mansion.
