Chapter 326: Collusion (1) (Ask for subscription!Ask for a recommendation ticket!Ask for a monthly pass!)

As a sign of his generosity, the pharaoh prepared a lot of food for his invited guests.

There are more than 20 main dishes: brightly coloured honey-glazed chicken pie, lemon cake stacked like a hill, creamy quail and spiced duck, chunks of peppery boar ribs, whole roast goose, grilled chicken and pigeon skewers served by waiters, barley beef, onions simmered with spices and gravy......

In addition to this, the owner of the city of Beit ordered people to go to sea and bring seafood sealed in salt and algae: whitefish and snails, crabs and mussels, as well as clams, herring, cod, salmon, lobsters and moray eels.

Some of the seafood is chilled, sliced and dipped in sauce for eating, some is grilled with spices, and some is cooked in a large pot and served to the table.

The entire ballroom was filled with brown bread, oatmeal biscuits, turnips, peas and beets, soybeans, pumpkins and red onions, apples, berry cakes and spirits boiled pears.

Wheels of snow-white cheese sit next to salt dishes at each table, and pots of mulled wine and cold light beer are held in the arms of the waiters for guests to use.

Of course, the cherry liquor that the pot-bellied general had in mind was also generously taken out of the cellar by the Pharaoh. Barrel by keg was stacked neatly next to the Medici military nobleman's seat—Ezindo kept his promise.

Because the food was so rich, the number of guests invited was too large. The tables for this feast were lined up all the way to the outside of the palace, occupying a small half of the garden square, where all the guests could be accommodated.

When the carriage came to the palace gate, Quest saw that the entire building was surrounded by a hazy halo.

As the carriage approached, he saw eight huge light sources outside the rectangular building—a huge tray with a flame as bright as a campfire but much more stable, and a mirror behind it, allowing the light to shine directly over the garden square.

"It's all made of alchemy-treated magnesia," the pot-bellied general noticed the young blue dragon's curious eyes, and he stepped forward to explain, "That's why it's so bright, and it can be used as a searchlight in wartime, but today it's just for lighting." ”

With that, he waved his hand and motioned for the dragon Pasha to move into the banquet hall, and Quest was as good as he could.

The companions of the young blue dragon followed him: except for the half-lich who was inconvenient to show his face, the three ogre brothers, the desert elf Braci in a hooded burqa, and the paladin Jensen all attended the dinner.

Since he was about to return to the front line of the bloody battle in the past two days, Quis also gathered all his team to his side, and today the Pharaoh held a feast, which just solved the dinner of the three ogre brothers.

"It is worthy of the monarch of the Medici Empire, the banquet is really magnificent," casually put the food piled up on both sides of the aisle into his mouth, and Blue gave his own evaluation while eating, "Well, the taste of these foods is also very good, and the chefs are also experienced masters." ”

Unlike Blue, who is surrounded by food, the rest of Queth's team seems to be very quiet. Hearing the news that they were about to go to the bottomless abyss, everyone was adjusting their mindset and enjoying the last peace before the big war.

Compared with the others, Brach, who was born in the Salem tribe, is the most emotional.

After becoming a member of Quest's team, the desert elf has been refreshing his perception of the multiverse almost daily.

From the original Salem tribe, to participating in the reconstruction of Nome City, to the conquest of the island world, and more recently, he participated in the siege of a demon lord incarnate, and soon after, he had the opportunity to go to the bottomless abyss to challenge those demons.

"The world is changing so fast," Blatch exclaimed.

As he walked, he looked at the palatial palace, and if he were the Grand Samurai of the Salem Clan, he would have felt dizzying, but now he could ignore it.

He could even spot many of the decorations, which were clearly the products sold by the Scales of Eternal Order.

For example, the stained patchwork glass inlaid in the windows, the engraved water clock timer with filigree and silver inlay, the fanatic armor ornament with the lion of Niroa, and the latest water purification pump......

As Quis and his entourage entered, the Pharaoh got up to greet him, and the whole palace instantly became lively.

And behind this noise, there is an undercurrent surging against the young blue dragon.

"Judge Kunini," leaning on the pillar in the corridor outside the palace, the Commander of the Wind called out the name of the person behind him without looking, and the Devil Count was in an invisible state at this time, "You ...... this time But I owe me a favor. ”

After saying this, the spy leader who belonged to the Medici and even the Ash World raised his arm, hooked a silver jug with ears filled with fine wine with his fingers, and handed it to the other party's sight.

Kunini, who had just come out of the back kitchen and had put in the freshly baked "dragon-killing potion", suddenly turned cold in his eyes - of course he recognized the silver kettle - the attendant who had been distorted by the magic told him that the silver pot contained the wine that the pharaoh had specially prepared for the dragon Pasha.

"What do you want to do?"

Without any movement, a light purple film appeared around Kunini and Commander Wenfeng, as if cutting the space where the two of them were located out of thin air, and the attendants who came and went around did not react at all.

However, despite the revelation of his deeds, he still did not immediately kill the Commander of the Wind - and even if he did want to, Kunini had to admit that how could someone who dared to expose his poisoning to his face not leave him behind.

"I should have asked you this," Commander Wenfeng didn't panic in the slightest, he straightened up and turned to face Kunini, "The Speaker of the Obsidian Council, or maybe some of the Great Devil lurking in this world...... Mr. ”

was called out of his identity, but Kunini became relaxed.

If the other party is deceiving himself, then an excessive reaction will confirm his suspicions, and if the other party has already determined his identity as a devil count, then no matter how much he talks about the lotus, there is actually no way to dispel his suspicions.

Based on the game theory he had learned at that academy in the depths of the Nine Prisons, the current situation—seeing through it without telling it—could only indicate that the other side was trying to blackmail him, or even intended to cooperate.

A mortal wants to blackmail a devil earl?

Cuunini will certainly say "welcome to let the horses come", and then use the contract theory, which humans simply cannot fully understand, to turn the other party into a soul prism in his wallet, the kind that tinkles.

And if Earl Wenfeng wants to cooperate with him......

Kunini was genuinely interested, or rather moved.
