Chapter 8: The Last Supper

The pumpkin slowly rises to the top floor, suspended a foot above the ground, and then stops moving.

The castle was actually semi-open-air, and the sudden brightness made everyone a little uncomfortable, and when their eyes eased, they finally saw the hanging garden on the top floor of the castle.

White stone slabs cover the ground, slender columns glow in the sun, and the palace-like top floor reflects a soft glow. Above, there is a small verandah supported by delicate stone pillars and bowed structures, and a patchwork of flowers and trees that cannot be named. The tops of the orange and citron trees are covered with a faint golden glow, and the crystal porcelain shimmers in the morning sun, and even the blush of the roses is faintly visible.

The six silently jumped off the pumpkin and carefully searched the garden-like building, not daring to guarantee that there would be no monsters again in this calm and peaceful landscape.

They now had recesses on each side of the top floor, in which benches and couches were placed, and soft light shone in from the dome of the hall, from which the air in the room flowed.

"I swear, I've never seen such a beautiful place in my life. Amber's eyes wandered away from the surrounding landscape, and he praised from the bottom of his heart.

"The more beautiful the place, the more dangerous it may be. "Behind these pillars are weapons racks, battle axes, swords, scimitars, longbows, and armor.

"It's a little uncomfortable to suddenly be quiet. Dainch plucked a tulip and sniffed deeply:

ā€œ...... It was so refreshing."

Betty stared at him with disdain from behind.

Yare couldn't help but be thirsty, and was about to pull out a bouquet of flowers and drink the water in the vase, but was stopped by Betty, and the girl pointed to the right.

The refreshing sound of spring water can be heard from one side of the garden, which originates from the fountain at the end of the corridor on the right, with diamond-like water spewing from a milky stone plate.

Hungry and thirsty, they crowded around them, dipped their faces into the pool, and gulped down the spring.

"You can also take a bath here!" Cathy lay down with her belly in her hands, and turned her head to see that there was a large storage tank next to the pool. The water is piped into a large storage tank, which can be used for bathing and even swimming without crowding.

"This qiē is so abnormal, what kind of conspiracy is there?"

Dainch washed the stain away with spring water, revealing a face that looked both refreshed and painful.

"Of course it's a reward!"

The sweet sound of children's voices sounded in the ears of the six, and they jumped up quickly and formed a circle, with the same expression on their faces, as if they had stepped on stool.

The calendula didn't care at all, and slowly fell with a kind and lovely smile, standing on a rose:

"It's great that everyone worked hard and that no one died. ā€

"We've reached the top, should we be let go back?"

Yalei held up the battle axe, trying to ignite the fighting spirit, but he was dizzy and his ears were buzzing.

"It's better not to use too much of it just to ignite the fighting spirit, otherwise your body will collapse. ā€

Calendula said with a stern face, raised her index finger, jumped up on her tiptoes, and landed on Yalei's battle axe:

"What I'm saying is that before dawn, when you reach the top floor, you can live, right?"

The flower fairy jumped back to the rose stamen lightly, clasped her palms and smiled:

"However, if you pass tomorrow's test, you can return home alive. ā€

"Is this a contract?" Cathy asked boldly.

"That's right, this is the contract!" Calendula faded and waved her hand at everyone:

"The room is directly in front of you, dinner will be delivered to the door by yourself, have a good rest, friendly reminder, don't open the door after dinner." ā€

It wasn't until the figure of the flower fairy completely disappeared into the morning sun that everyone relaxed.

After a few minutes, they found the room that the goblin had said they were talking about, and pushed open the metal door,

Bedroom furniture painted with gold carvings, beautiful lamps with tassels, draperies with a silky sheen, sheets...... In such an aristocratic bedroom, the tense nerves of the six people finally relaxed.

There is a huge mural on the wall of the scene of Christ and his disciples at the Last Supper, and everyone can't help but sigh at the evil taste of the goblins.

"That guy ended up scheming on us. Corell was the first to react:

"It's okay for six people to squeeze into a room, and only give a bed ......"

"It doesn't matter, there's such a thick blanket on the floor, and it doesn't hurt to lay on the floor. ā€

Amber said she didn't feel pressured and just wanted to take a good shower.

"But what about the clothes?" asked Cathy, picking up her stained collar and disgusted.

Yalei rummaged around, and finally a dozen sheets were found in the closet and thrown at the feet of everyone:

ā€œ...... Special conditions...... I'm going to ...... it for a while."

"......" everyone blackened their faces, picked up the sheets, and was silent.

"That...... Betty and Cathy go wash first, it's okay for us adults to wait a while. ā€

Correll had recognized his role as an atmosphere moderator, and said with a dry smile.

"I, I'm not used to bathing with others, so go first. ā€

Betty unexpectedly refused, but it wasn't a big deal, because it was a personal habit, and the rest of the people felt that it was okay to accommodate it, so they let her wash it first.

One hour, Betty came back barefoot wrapped in sheets, and Cathy rushed out, not wanting to be with the stains any longer, even for a second.

After another hour, when Cathy returned wrapped in sheets, the men finally howled and rushed out.

The four of them soaked comfortably in the spring water, listening to the crisp sound of the clear spring and smelling the flowers, Ya Lei was fascinated by his eyes and had the urge to sleep.

"Do you think it......" Amber soaked half of his face in the water, gurgling and spitting blisters like a crab:

"Four men and two women, wrapped in sheets, sleeping in the same room, don't they look like some kind of nasty pie?"

There was no atmosphere, and without hesitation, Correll kicked him out, and when he came to the surface, Yaree made up for it.

After washing their bodies, several men washed their clothes naked, and splashed the sewage downstairs with flower pots in a very disciplined manner, and finally hung the cleaned clothes on the orange tree.

After several men also went back wrapped in sheets, six people were crammed into a small space. Corell's despair was now, and the embarrassment that permeated the air was beyond the scope of his ability to defuse.

"We should prepare the weapons we will use tomorrow. Yalei raised yƬ with a dark face, and ushered in the unanimous echo of everyone.

Towards the end of the evening, everyone selected a complete set of equipment for their team, and Jarre and Corell put on full-coverage plate armor because they broke through the limit and greatly increased their physical strength. The weapons chosen by Yalei were still two battle axes, and Correll picked a heavy shield and a chain hammer.

The two girls and Dainch chose leather armor and a crossbow, and Amber chose chainmail and a scimitar.

The group moved their weapons back to the room, and then heard a few goose calls, and when they opened the door, they saw several roast geese "quack" walking in in a queue, followed by two roast suckling pigs, carrying steaks and fruit.

The roast goose expertly jumped onto the table, and then opened the ribcage to reveal the tender color of the high-quality foie gras......

Hunger drives people crazy, and at this time, whether it is sympathy or hatred, it is a trivial thing that is not worth mentioning......

The six of them changed into dry clothes and devoured all the food delivered to the door, although they felt a little disgusting, but the quality and taste of the ingredients were excellent.

Enough food was replenished, everyone lay down wrapped in sheets, the girl slept on the bed, Cathy turned over and accidentally approached Betty, and between the other party's silks, she smelled a familiar fragrance of flowers, where did she seem to smell it?

The girl was thinking about it when there was a sudden knock at the door.

Everyone stood up in shock, and they could clearly remember that the marigolds had warned them not to open the door after dinner.

Aree tiptoed to the door and saw through the cat's eye that a wedding dress was rolling up its cuffs and banging on the door.

"What is it?" asked Correll, solemnly as he walked over.

"It's okay, let's all sleep, a wedding dress, leave it alone. ā€
