Chapter 40: The Tasters and the Eaters

Inverted black pyramid, a hundred coffins.

The nine erected coffins staggered, with a thumping sound from within.

Boom –

The lid of the coffin was lifted off and smashed to the ground.

Out of the erected coffin came a series of figures that seemed to be no different from ordinary people, but the skin membrane appeared more tenacious.

In front of the eight figures, there was a person in the lead.

The leading taster was pale with a little bit of turquoise, and those turquoise spots were colonies formed by the fungus's parasitic body.

Ordinary tasters tend to have only tough skin, and only those who are close to Sequence 8 - Ghoul Eaters will show the external characteristics of these original Ghouls in advance.

The shallow taster with a green colony on his body came to Gu Xiao and bowed slightly to show respect.

"My lord, my name is Dallas, and I am the captain chosen by these eight tasters."

Gu Xiao glanced at Dallas's sturdy arms with his right eye, sharp nails, and the specific attributes of the shallow taster appeared in his eyes.

【Taster】

Class: Class, Eater

Route: Necro-Eater Sequence 9

Attributes: Attack, 5, Defense, 4, Speed, 6

Talent: E-Rank: A Taster can devour the corpses of enemies to quickly recover itself. However, their bodies have not yet formed a complete internal ecosystem, and some organs of the corpse cannot be digested, so they can only devour about 10% of each corpse and restore 10% of their total blood volume.

(If the taster has 4 corpses at the same time, they can only devour 10% of each corpse, recovering a total of 40% of their HP)

(The effect can restore the damage of flesh and blood, but it cannot restore the damage of bone and nerve tissue.) οΌ‰

Skill: Swim proficiently.

The attributes are very good, although they don't have the common spiritual pollution talent of the gram class (they lose SAN value when they meet), but it's also good to be able to heal themselves.

At present, there are no medical professionals in Gu Xiao's territory, and the self-recovery talent of those who taste it is more important.

Gu Xiao groaned, just wanting Dallas to take the taster to rest first.

But he suddenly found that only nine coffins seemed to be opened, and nine tasters came out. And not ten.

How so? In the introduction of the system, it is clearly said that there are ten hundred coffins per day.

Suspecting that he had made the wrong number, he rechecked it with his fingers, only to find that there were still nine.

He immediately asked, "Dallas, why is there only nine tasters, shouldn't there be ten?" ”

Hearing the question, Dallas hesitated, and replied a little hesitantly, "Yes, that's right, my lord." There was another adult who did not wake up with us in the coffin. ”

"He, he said, was going to make a perfect first impression on the lord. He, he's going to cook a meal for your lordship. ”

Dallas's body trembled involuntarily at the mention of the man in his mouth, as if he was terrified of the man.

Gu Xiao frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied.

The tenth man did not listen to the command, and decided what to cook for himself.

"Where is he? Dallas, take me to meet him. ”

Dallas led Gu Xiao to the corpse eater restaurant that had not yet been opened-residual body temperature.

At this time, the residual body temperature was ten rooms and nine empty, and most of the rooms were dark.

Only one room is brightly lit, which stands out against the dark surrounding rooms.

In the room, a 'cook' is cooking.

A straight black men's suit, a neat appearance, and a clean face.

A well-fitting white chef's suit is worn on the body, and the white chef's suit against the black suit is very eye-catching, like the only white island in the black ocean.

Expertly cut, floured, and fried.

It's just a simple cooking operation, but under the hands of the gray-haired chef, it's like a fine art, the sound of the blade cutting through the flesh and the sound of water splashing in the oil pan are so harmonious and beautiful.

Next to it is the elaborate table of the gray-haired chef.

Shiny silver knives and forks, reflective Bordeaux wine glasses, and diamond-shaped clean cloths are all placed in the most comfortable position for diners.

All of this is evident to the diners, prepared with great care by an elegant chef.

Feeling the dimming of the light in the room, the gray-haired chef realized that there was a visitor.

Looking up, Dallas, the strongest of the tasters, respectfully followed behind a skinny boy.

Then the identity of this thin boy is self-evident, and only the master of this territory can have such a personality.

The gray-haired chef didn't bend down respectfully like Dallas, and flattered the lord.

On the contrary, he changed to another way, just nodding at Gu Xiao very plainly.

With his hands spread out, he showed the lord everything he had prepared.

came to the dining table in person, pulled out the chair and motioned for Gu Xiao to sit down.

The best ingredients are reserved only for the most honorable, and only the most honorable are personally received by the chef.

β€”β€”In this way, the gray-haired chef showed his respect to Gu Xiao.

"Before dinner starts, there's a question to ask in advance."

The gray-haired chef looked at Gu Xiao.

"Your lord, you're not a vegetarian, are you?"

Gu Xiao shook his head as a matter of course. He has never been a vegetarian since the Blue Star.

"Good appetite!" The gray-haired chef raised his glass to Gu Xiao.

Gu Xiao raised his glass with the gray-haired chef and drank the appetizing sweet wine.

The gray-haired chef walked to the back kitchen and ushered out another 'guest' in a suit and leather shoes.

This 'guest' was slightly obese, but his eyes were shrewd, and he looked like he was engaged in mental work.

The gray-haired chef's voice rang out.

"God has given you the will not only to create art, but to be art."

"Mr. Smith, a good meal is an art show, and it takes the chef's most meticulous preparation of ingredients to bring out the best in its kindness. Please be seated. ”

The gray-haired chef ushered the second 'guest' Mr. Smith into his seat and presented the first appetizer of the day to Gu Xiao and Smith.

Three plates of oily meat were placed in front of the three of them.

"The first course, please enjoy the fried brain flowers."

"The selection of the best quality olive oil, the most delicate grasp of the heat, and the brain flower with a high degree of brain development, can present the food in front of the two."

The gray-haired chef pushed the two plates of brain flowers to Gu Xiao and Smith.

Mr. Smith looked at it with great interest, and cut it gentlemanly with his knife and fork. Make the most of the food prepared by the gray-haired chef.

Perfect table manners hint at Mr. Smith's illustrious status.

But Gu Xiao next to him didn't have an appetite at all.

It's all because Mr. Smith's skull is long gone!

In the fresh brain, the part of the brain flower is missing!
