Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Gluttony of Human Blood

It didn't take long for Ghost Hand and Al to arrive, and Ghost Hand still looked like a ruffian, but the weird smile on his face grew thicker and thicker, making people feel that there was an indescribable deep meaning.

Al sat in her position with her eyes closed, although she was quiet and didn't say anything, but from the delicate body that occasionally trembled slightly, it could be seen that she was a little anxious and very nervous.

And Luo Wei also noticed a detail, that is, there was a brand new cross hanging on Al's chest, the cross she wore before had been left to Lu Ren forever in the eastern heights of the swarm, this new cross should have been taken from the church by her, at this time, her little hand was holding this brand new cross, as if looking for some kind of support.

Although the banquet was going on normally, the details had already made Luo Wei a little uneasy.

The last invitee finally arrived, and they sat quietly and neatly, while the Marquis Charles also stood up with his glass in his hand, and said happily: "Distinguished guests, thank you for coming, and in the last hours of the Feast of Gifts, let us present a glass of wine full of sincerity to the Dawn Warriors for their contribution to the city!" ”

Under the words of praise, the guests who went to the banquet all raised their wine glasses and expressed their respect to the table of the dawn team, and most of them, including the ghost hand, symbolically picked up the wine glass and returned the salute, only Luo Wei did not move at all.

This kind of rude performance made many people dissatisfied, but it was only secretly hidden in their hearts, after all, this is a world where the strong are respected, and the tempers of the evolutionaries are more eccentric, and they are all used to it.

After paying tribute to the Dawn Team, the Marquis Charles began his own eloquent speech again, the content was relatively the same, nothing more than thanking this, thanking that, saying that he would continue to protect the people and help this wasteland to restore and build Yunyun, and the guests who went to the banquet also listened with smiles on their faces, applauding Marquis Charles's speech from time to time, but how much sincerity in it is unknown.

At the same time as the Marquis Charles spoke, the waiters and maids also alternately shuttled and served the dishes, and the dishes that could be served at the dinner at the Marquis Palace were naturally different, most of them were jade plates made of precious ingredients, and in this era when the wilderness homeless people ate the corpses and the city residents swallowed bread, the dishes that were out of place with the times such as red wine stewed beef, goat cheese, and frosted mille-feuille were put on the table, and this was just an appetizer.

Among the dishes served at the back are roasted hares with fatty meat imported from the Crusaders of Europe, reindeer stews that can only be caught in the northern mountains, and even something unimaginable like fresh roe.

You know, in the Honkai Era, human beings have long lost control of the ocean, if you want to fish food from the sea, there is only one way, that is to dispatch in the most severe winter, at this time many mutated creatures in the sea have swam to the south to avoid the cold, at this time you can send people to dig holes in the ice, put down fishing nets to try their luck.

However, due to the destruction of the earth's ozone layer, the ability to control temperature is seriously reduced, and the temperature during the winter period often drops to minus thirty or forty degrees, and normal people will shrink at home, burn the fireplace to the bridle, and do not go out for the whole month.

There is also a casualty rate in the transportation of other ingredients, the rebels in the northern mountains are rampant, and the land corridor between Europe and Asia is also full of mutant creatures, and it is no exaggeration to say that every bite eaten at this gorgeous dinner party is not eating food, but eating human life and drinking human blood, and these nobles are no longer polite gentlemen, but demons who drink human blood and cannibalize human flesh in a conversation.

Among all the people present, only Luo Wei and Al realized such a problem, needless to say, the others were eating and drinking, and the straight Eric and Arnold didn't think too much, this kind of exciting food was in front of them, if it weren't for the scruples of face, they would probably have to grab it, especially Arnold, he was born in cloth, usually steamed bread and light porridge, when have he seen such a dish, he has begun to gobble it up.

In fact, judging from past experience, Luo Wei should not mind eating a big meal here, in his eyes, survival is the most important, what kind of human life morality is none of his business, what if thousands of people die because of these ingredients, what if it is stained with human life and blood? These foods can provide him with the nutrients to live, and that is enough.

However, since coming to Dawn City, since witnessing the various ecology in the city, Luo Wei's heart seems to have undergone some kind of transformation, some subtle change that even he is not aware of, this change makes him have no appetite at this time, and he doesn't even want to touch these foods.

Exquisite delicacies are still being served, these nobles are eating like gluttony at this time, eating sesame oil from the corners of their mouths, and Marquis Charles is also constantly sending all kinds of meat to his mouth, which seems to explain his fat body that can be described as bloated, and what is even more ridiculous is that Marquis Charles also has a dog, which is eating delicious fatty meat that ordinary people can't eat at this time.

Luo Wei inexplicably thought of a poem he had learned in class before: Although it is covered with a scarf, it is not as good as a noble dog.

I don't know how long this gluttony lasted, until everyone patted their stomachs contentedly and praised the deliciousness of the ingredients, and the meal session came to an end.

"Hahaha!" Without any warning, Ghost Hand suddenly began to laugh lowly, and the banter hidden in his eyes before was so thick that it almost exploded at this moment, "The show is finally about to begin." ”

In the laughter of the ghost hands, the banquet scene suddenly quieted down, everyone stopped talking, but there was a mysterious smile on their faces, in this strange silence, the door of the banquet hall opened, and two columns of waiters rushed in, each holding a gilded mask in his hand, judging from its shape, it should be made according to the style of ancient Greek mythology.

Luo Chou glanced at the mask he had been assigned with a cold eye, and quickly recognized that Ares, the ancient Greek god of war, the embodiment of strength, blood, murder, and calamity, was not a good sign.

By this time, Al's face was already extremely pale, and he seemed to know what was going to happen next.

In the clapping of Marquis Charles, the next scene made Luo Wei's pupils begin to dilate, and he couldn't help but hold his breath.
