Chapter 271, Ghost? Feast (I)
At the same time that Li De and the others stepped into the forest, Miledi's dinner party also officially began. The guests' luxury hovercar began to stop in the forecourt of the Duke of Winchester's mansion, and one by one the nobles of the Ados Star dressed in gorgeous dresses got out of the car and entered the luxurious villa mansion under the guidance of the servants.
In the banquet hall of thousands of square meters, countless delicacies are placed on silver plates, and a classical band composed of 15 people plays melodious music.
The beautiful Countess of Winchester, Miledy, stood at the door of the ballroom, showing off her playful smile and gorgeous evening gown to every guest who came to her.
Hundreds of guests entered the ballroom, men and women holding each other's arms, and warm smiles were reflected on everyone's faces. This evening they will enjoy the beauty of food and music while having another gorgeous feast.
Waiting for all the guests to enter the ballroom, all the doors closed, Milady slowly walked to a circular stage in the center of the ballroom. The light gathered on her and elevated her whole temperament.
Standing in the center of the banquet hall, her whole aura was completely different, no longer the gentle countess, but a queen admired by thousands of people.
"We are shadows!" Miledi's eyes stared ahead in vain, and a divine voice sounded. The harmony in the ballroom filled her voice with an unmistakable affirmation.
"We are the darkness in the midst of the light! We are fearless horrors! The crowd in the banquet hall shouted in unison.
"Thank you for coming! Tonight is the time for us to come together and enjoy this wonderful night! Miledi's voice was impassioned, "The feast of the hunt is about to begin!" ”
"Roar~~!" The guests cheered. Some of the guests raised their crystal glasses and shouted loudly in the local language of Ados, expressing their excitement and gratitude for Miledi's arrangement.
A cylindrical stereoscopic virtual screen descends from the ceiling, a huge cylinder with a diameter of five meters, right in the center of the ballroom. Let everyone enjoy music and food while still being able to see what's on the screen.
Miledi had an extra crystal cup in his hand, and the cup contained a third of the purple-gold liquid. She took an elegant sip of wine and explained to the guests, "We just fed a few hunting prey with food containing radioisotopes, and now they are under our tracking. The hunting ground is the forest behind you, and the hunt is now in earnest! ”
The crowd was lifted up again, as if celebrating the most sacred of rituals, and shouted together: "We are shadows!" We are the darkness in the midst of the light! We are fearless horrors! Then, drink the wine from the glass.
Marco walked through the dark woods, his automatic rifle clenched tightly in his hand. He seemed to feel a hint of gore and danger. It seems to have gone back to the time when the Warspear Squad was on a mission.
The original spear squad can be said to be an extremely sharp knife on the battlefield of human beings against alien races, and countless Purdo, Zerg and alien aliens became corpses under his snatching. But he didn't expect that today, a hundred years later, he, the leader of the war spear squad, would not be able to deal with the battle of the powerhouses of the alien race.
This is also the difference between the actions of ordinary squads on the battlefield. The battlefield always relies on ordinary soldiers, and squad expeditions and missions are all about individual strength.
The rustling leaves of the woods had a cold scent, and all the detection instruments could not detect any enemies. Sonar and infrared detection could only detect countless plants, but Marco's sense of danger was even better.
Marco's image appeared on the virtual screen in the banquet hall, and Miledi explained, "This is a race called humans, which belongs to a relatively low civilization. You can see that the weapons in their hands seem to be primitive air biological attack weapons. ”
The guests let out a laugh. Some people are still teasing: "Dear Milady, why did you choose such a low-level prey?" ”
"Yes! We'd love to be a little surprised! ”
"I think we're going to spend most of the night in boredom!"
"This guy looks like he has a low Force level!"
Just as the guests were talking, there was an anomaly in front of Marco.
The earth cracked suddenly. A sharp spike protruded from the ground. Marco's eyes widened as his detector hadn't reacted before, and the spikes were rapidly growing in size right before his eyes.
Marco lunged to the side, protruding spikes grazing his battle armor. Emit a spark. The armor piece was scratched with a depth of 5 millimeters, but fortunately he dodged the attack of the ground thorn just now, otherwise he would have been directly pierced.
"Oh! He actually dodged! A guest who was shoving a slice of meat-coated vegetable into his mouth shouted.
"Does he have the ability to predict too? It's just amazing! ”
"It's not a prejudgment. That's the instinct of being a warrior. But it's also an instinct that only a battle-hardened warrior can have! ”
Seeing Marco's watch, Miledi also smiled slightly. After all, if these mercenaries didn't look good, she would also be disappointed.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have personally observed the prey this time, and they are all battle-hardened warriors and strong men, please feel free to appreciate it!" Miledi said with a smile.
The attack of the ground thorns is not over, and on the virtual screen, Marco can be seen jumping through the woods, dodging the elusive ground spikes that have not appeared one after another.
At this time, the virtual screen divided into two other screens, and the two screens were the Wang sisters. At this time, the Wang sisters were moving forward cautiously, and suddenly two huge figures appeared behind them.
Two huge figures appeared behind the twin sisters almost at the same time, and the twins reacted very differently.
Wang Haoting threw herself forward, handed the automatic rifle to her right hand, grabbed a thick tree trunk on her side with her left hand, and made a roundabout movement to dodge the attack while aiming the muzzle at the attacker.
Wang Haorou chose to resist directly, a light blue light suddenly erupted in her hand, and the nine-section whip light sword spread out in her hand, her hands were raised above her head, and her back was leaned back.
A large scythe-like object slammed into the nine-section whip lightsaber, making a clattering sound.
Wang Haorou's body was attacked and fell to the ground, but her fall also dissolved the momentum of the sickle and gave Wang Haorou time to get out.
Seeing the scene of the battle, the guests in the banquet hall were all amazed.
Wang Haorou didn't wait for the next action of the black shadow, and jumped up from the ground. The nine-section whip circled around his body, and he unleashed two more scythe attacks.
At this time, Wang Haoting and Wang Haorou, with the assistance of the detector, also saw the black shadow that attacked them at the same time. Those two long legs, triangular head and hideous and terrifying face were a huge Zerg mantis.
"How can there be zerg?" The two girls burst into surprise at the same time, but the battle situation made them unable to think.
Wang Haoting's automatic rifle erupted with angry flames, bullets flew into the insect's body, and the sound of gunfire echoed in the forest, reminding her companions of the approaching danger.
Wang Haorou's nine-section whip danced vigorously, blocking all the attacks of the insect's sickle and long feet, and at the same time injuring the insect's sharpest and toughest long feet.
"What sound?" Li De said in the communicator.
"Master, there was just a shield signal and our communications seem to be blocked!" Eva's voice said.
"How so?" The slightest hint of malaise in Li De's heart suddenly increased, and he almost subconsciously blocked the automatic rifle in his hand in front of his chest, and the Force sent out, and the armor of his arm was infused by the Force and became extremely hard.
A spark burst out from Li De's arm, and the huge impact caused Li De to fly backwards and crash into a tree.
Eva uses feedback from the Guò motion detector and sonar detector to project a simulated image of the enemy onto a monitor inside Lee's helmet.
"Damn! Fortunately, Lao Tzu reacted quickly, and he was actually the Praying Mantis King! Li De looked at the enemy information displayed on the monitor, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It was in the Sherwood Forest that a praying mantis king made both Karin and Heinrich very wolf-like. Now he had to face this terrifying creature alone. (To be continued......)
