The delicious aroma was extremely invasive after the stir-frying. It wafted into everyone's noses along with the rising steam.
Crassus lowered his gaze slowly and stole a glance at the dishes on the table. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.
The colorful dish should be the stir-fried octopus tentacles. The colorful side dishes were mixed with the octopus tentacles that were cut into small pieces. It looked appetizing. It turned out that the octopus tentacles were so small. They were only as thick as a thumb, and there were no eyeballs on them. The surface of the octopus tentacles was shiny with the color of the sauce, making them look very tempting.
As for the octopus balls, they should be the golden balls that were arranged neatly on the black square plate. They were just the right size and covered with a layer of fine wood shavings.
"Huh?" Crassus stared at the wood shavings with his eyes wide open. These things are actually moving? Could they not be wood shavings, but some kind of thin worm?
Crassus lowered his head and looked at the moving wood shavings carefully. They looked really strange, but they were not scary.
The two octopus dishes were completely different from what he had expected.
They did not look scary at all. The stir-fried octopus tentacles were bright and attractive, while the octopus balls were cute and strange. It seemed like there was a huge difference between an ordinary octopus and that octopus monster.
"It's not scary at all." Crassus raised his eyebrows and looked at the three people who did not dare to look at the table. He immediately looked troubled. "Tsk, tsk. This … this … this is a little too scary, isn't it?"
The three people who were ready to take a look at Crassus when they saw him lowering his head retracted their gazes when they heard him.
"Hey, hey, hey. You guys should take a look too. The dishes are already served. Why don't you guys take a look? You can't let me suffer alone," Crassus said hurriedly.
The three of them were unmoved.
"Look, we're all level-10. Is this all you have? It seems like I'll have to be the warrior. "Crassus put an octopus tentacle into his mouth with a fearless expression.
The three of them looked at Crassus from the corner of their eyes at the same time.
Crassus opened his mouth and chewed. His eyes lit up.
The crispy octopus tentacles had an excellent texture. As soon as he bit into them, the fresh taste of the octopus exploded in his mouth.
It was so delicious that it instantly filled his mouth and directly attacked his soul!
Crassus felt as if he was suddenly immersed in the boundless ocean. He did not feel any fear. What was even more incredible was that he had gained the ability to breathe in the ocean.
He looked around curiously. In the deep blue sea, there were fish that occasionally passed by him, but they were not afraid of him at all.
Then, he found a flickering flame in the depths of the sea.
"Why is there fire in the depths of the sea?" He swam towards the flame in surprise, but no matter how close he got, the flame always kept a certain distance from him, jumping around in a strange way.
The pressure of the surrounding seawater increased, but Crassus's eyes gradually became clear. In the flickering flames, he seemed to see some incredible laws.
"Hu —"
Crassus suddenly let out a long breath, as if he had been holding in the water for a long time. He looked at the chopsticks in his hand that he had not put down. Then, he came back to his senses and realized that he was eating.
"What was that just now?" Crassus was a little confused. Could it be that what he saw just now was an illusion? However, this illusion was completely different from what he saw when he was controlled by the octopus monster in the catacombs. He vaguely felt that if he could completely control that flickering flame, his strength might be able to improve further.
"Could it be related to this octopus?" Crassus picked up another octopus tentacle. After hesitating for a while, he put it into his mouth.
As soon as he chewed, the delicious taste began to spread. He entered that mysterious state again.
Julian, Louis, and the others looked at Crassus who had entered a trance after taking a bite of the octopus tentacle. They were surprised and looked down.
The dishes on the table were unexpectedly delicious.
There were no scary tentacles, no scarlet eyeballs, and even … a little cute?
"Is this … its son?" Louis stroked his chin.
"This should be a normal-sized octopus from the Boundless Ocean," Douglas deduced.
"It doesn't look like anything special." Julian picked up his chopsticks, picked up an octopus tentacle, and put it into his mouth.
"Hmm?!" Before Crassus could savor the taste of the octopus tentacle, an endless ice field appeared in front of him.
"Is it really that delicious?" Louis looked at the two stunned men. After hesitating for a while, he picked up an octopus ball and put it into his mouth.
"Oh … Sss … It's hot!" Louis, who was about to open the octopus ball, opened his mouth and exhaled a few times. Then, he quickly entered a mysterious state as well.
Douglas could not stand their behavior. He picked up an octopus tentacle and put it into his mouth. He muttered in his heart, "Isn't it just an octopus tentacle? Why are all of you being so mysterious … "
Then, he saw an ice mirror between heaven and earth.
…
The four of them recovered from that mysterious state almost at the same time. They happened to meet each other's eyes, then swallowed their saliva at the same time.
"What did you see?" Crassus felt that his throat was a little dry.
"Something very mysterious." Louis still had a look of disbelief on his face.
"I have to say that these octopus tentacles might be able to bring us great benefits," Douglas said with a grave expression. He guessed that the things they saw might be different, but the meaning should be the same.
"Interesting." Julian only said two words as he picked up a second octopus tentacle.
Crassus and the others did not say anything else, and continued eating.
"Is it really that delicious?"
"They're not in cahoots with each other, are they?"
"This is an octopus tentacle! They're actually enjoying it so much! "
The powerhouses, who were originally waiting to see the big shots embarrassed, were all shocked when they saw the four of them eating the stir-fried octopus tentacles and octopus balls with a satisfied expression.
…
Harrison picked up a skewer of roasted pig's eyes, and introduced it to Dracula with an infatuated expression, "Look at the quality of these roasted pig's eyes. The thin eyeballs are wrapped in a plump liquid, and it looks like they're going to explode if they're roasted for a while longer. Only Mr. Mak can master such a skill. I heard that someone outside wanted to imitate it, and his eyeballs exploded all over the floor, scalding himself until he became an idiot."
Dracula took a look at the skewered eyeballs, and immediately thought of the octopus tentacles that were filled with eyeballs. These were called pig's eyes, but who knew if they were actually roasted with octopus tentacles?
Dracula forcefully suppressed the churning in his stomach, and glanced at Harrison. These things looked so scary, but this little fatty actually liked them so much. This kind of courage was not something that ordinary people could have.
"Pfff …"
Harrison bit off an eyeball. When the eyeball was bitten open, Dracula clearly heard the sound of it breaking.
"Who the f * ck can take this!"
Dracula looked at the goosebumps on his hands, and instantly lost his composure.
