Chapter 3258: Banquet
In the different space, several large patches of blood were scattered on the street. An arm cut into a dozen segments and an arm blade were mixed in the blood.
On the steps beside the street, the mask on Lone Skeleton Lancelot's face cracked, his chest center was sunken, and the broken armor was embedded in the flesh like scales. Around it, it looked like a flower blooming, with several recurved ribs sticking out.
"I am, Lone Skeleton, Lancelot."
Lone Skeleton Lancelot spoke with his last breath. He didn't want to die in tonight's big event like a small fry, unknown to anyone.
In fact, Lone Skeleton Lancelot was overthinking.
Su Xiao slashed off Lone Skeleton Lancelot's head, took out a dart-like syringe from his storage space, and flicked it, pinning it onto Lancelot's corpse. Don't underestimate this thing; this blood-collecting needle looked small, but it was actually a kind of high-tech, capable of collecting about 300 milliliters of blood in a single time.
【Prompt: You have killed Lone Skeleton Lancelot.】
【You have obtained 2.71% World Source.】
Judging by the amount of World Source obtained, this was at least a small boss-level enemy. Killing such an enemy, however, didn't drop a treasure chest.
Su Xiao clearly felt that his luck had been average recently, which made him worry: if the plan went smoothly and he successfully killed the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun, would it not drop a treasure chest?
If a big boss like the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun didn't drop a treasure chest, that would be a big problem. Thinking of this, Su Xiao was even more eager to change his luck, which meant catching the Goddess of Luck.
Using a wet towel to wipe the blood spots on his arm, Su Xiao put on his clothes and the pharmacist white robe. Afterward, he took off the bucket on his head. He came to Lancelot's corpse, pulled out the blood-collecting needle, and the second stage of the plan began.
Palace, Grand Banquet Hall.
The time for the banquet to start was approaching, and the food and drinks were all prepared. The number of servants in the banquet hall was much smaller, and their attire was more decent.
Beside the dining table in the corner, Morey and the Moon Apostle's eating manners were much more ladylike. The 【Insight Eye】 floated in front of the two of them. The Apocalypse Sisters had transferred from an escape-type live broadcast to a food broadcast.
The two of them were satisfied with this big meal. In the Void Arena, tens of thousands of viewers were hungry from watching the broadcast. Originally, everyone thought that the broadcast of the contention battle would be steel colliding, heavy armor, and fighting until the sky turned dark, but who would have thought that the audience in the ring auditorium would be hungry from watching? The catering department of the arena let out a happy wail.
"Satisfied."
"No regrets in death."
The Moon Apostle and Morey both leaned back on the chair back. They became best friends for a reason.
After the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun in the main seat saw this, he first criticized the Moon Apostle and Morey for not having ladylike temperament in his heart, and then felt heartache in secret. If he had known about these two goods, he wouldn't have asked people to prepare such high-level ingredients. Originally, it was to reward his subordinates, but as a result...
Just at this time, black smoke rose on the wall, and a door made of dark golden metal skulls opened, with wisps of black smoke rising inside.
Strips of pale bone arms reached out from the edge of the door, grabbing the door frame, as if trying to struggle out of the fog.
Morey and the Moon Apostle saw this scene and felt that they had no face when they came. How could they have walked in so happily? It was too lacking in style.
Black fog spread, accompanied by the ticking sound of the clock jumping. A figure in a suit walked out of the door. Because they feared him, the skull arms reaching out from the edge of the door shrank back.
Wood was still in his original appearance, his skull covered with rice-sized gems, making his skull completely black. The faint green pupil flames in his eyes, combined with his expression, made him look like he was smiling at any time.
Wood came alone. He found a table and chair to sit down, picked up a wine glass, and his pupil flames condensed. He was somewhat dissatisfied and poured out the wine in the glass, opened a bottle of wine he had brought, and poured a glass. Only then did his aura relax.
Seeing this, the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun didn't react. His thought was: be arrogant, you won't be able to be arrogant in a while.
"My lord, save me..."
A bald man more than ten meters away knelt on the ground, his hands clutching his throat. Strips of black tentacles reached out from his mouth and nose. After he let out a painful whimper, black tentacles also reached out from his eye sockets and ear holes. Finally, his whole person was burst open by the tentacles.
Black tentacles coiled across the wall surface, and a tentacle passage opened up, emitting sounds from the netherworld that were so seductive and eerie that merely hearing them was enough to drive a person insane.
"Sovereign of the Blazing Sun, I didn't hurt your people, did I?"
Sin Ays walked out of the tentacle passage, stepping on half a broken skull along the way.
"This disgusting trash."
Sin Ays, wearing white clerical clothes, appeared. One could only say that being hostile to this guy required a big heart. Don't forget, in his youth, Sin Ays was very arrogant.
The Sovereign of the Blazing Sun was silent. He knew that this tentacle man was deliberately provoking him. Now, he had to endure. It would be soon. These guys who thought they had the upper hand and let their subordinates infiltrate Saint Dan City were about to pay the price for their arrogance.
Today's banquet was the best method the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun could think of. If Sin Ays and Wood only came with one, then he would negotiate peace. If they all came, he would use the mechanisms in the palace to catch these people in one fell swoop.
This mechanism was a legacy of the 'Dynasty,' and only the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun, who inherited the royal bloodline, could activate it. Besides himself, no one knew of the existence of these mechanisms.
The Sovereign of the Blazing Sun wanted to seize the final victory in a way that no one would expect. He had already discovered that in terms of scheming, he was far inferior to these people, so he took a different path, relying on his own trump cards and strength to defeat these people.
The order of elimination set by the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun was: Wood -> Sin Ays -> Water Brother -> Su Xiao -> Caesar -> Morey, Moon Apostle.
Sin Ays arrived at the venue. A female servant let out an exclamation. The water in her hand rolled up into a tornado, and an arm reached out from the water. Water Brother appeared.
Drip, drip~
Water droplets dripped along Water Brother's hair. He closed his eyes and held a blind cane in his hand.
"Madam, I disturbed you."
Water Brother nodded apologetically to the female servant, which made the female servant very confused. In the past, the powerful people here didn't treat her as a person, calling her back and forth was just a small matter. This world was about to come to an end, and the exploitation of the weak by the strong could be imagined.
After Water Brother arrived, just when everyone thought the banquet was about to start, Lilim, with her arms crossed, walked in smelling the fragrance. Judging by her complexion, she hadn't been doing well recently.
Lilim was now a 'big shot' in the Trace King Hall, possessing a lot of say, such as deciding where to look for Trace Kings, and which direction the Trace Seekers should walk together. Please don't laugh. In the Trace King Hall, which direction to look for Trace Kings was the top priority.
Now Lilim was doubting life. Thinking that the Trace King Hall was a hidden force was simply too stupid in her eyes now. Even wild boars in the wilderness wouldn't fall for such a trick, but she just believed it.
In the banquet hall, seeing Lilim who had no style of appearance, the Moon Apostle and Morey felt like they had found family. The little friends of the good camp gathered again.
"Come and eat, it's delicious."
"Waiter, serve another table."
"?"
Lilim's face was burning, but she was truly too hungry. Following the Trace Seekers, she discovered that the Trace Seekers didn't eat.
Soon, under the cover of the Moon Apostle and Morey, Lilim ate as ladylike as possible. In the Void Arena, seeing Lilim's appearance, the old guys of the Demon Race felt heartache. This was their heart's treasure, watched growing up from childhood. Now being so embarrassed, could they not feel heartache? They say the older generation loves the younger, and they were separated by several generations.
Pairs of old eyes, as if magma were burning inside, looked at Lilim's father. Lilim's father, wearing curly goat horns, looked expressionless, but was actually a bit panicked.
In the banquet hall, the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun in the main seat looked gloomy. His thought was: how did another one come?
The Sovereign of the Blazing Sun looked at Wood drinking alone, Sin Ays closing his eyes to rest, and Water Brother eating an apple. Suddenly, he felt that these three guys didn't seem as hateful as before, at least they didn't treat him as a sucker, they just wanted his life.
Just when the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun thought this, a voice reached his ears. The other party shouted: "Waiter, the food here tastes good. Pack it for me after eating. Waste is shameful."
Hearing this sentence, the Sovereign of the Blazing Sun's expression was a bit dull. ===== CHAPTER 3259 =====
