After Lü Luo received the female wedding ring, he walked towards the main hall of the castle.
As soon as he entered the door, the soldier gave him a card with the words "Candidate" written on it.
When he looked at the castle, the red and white castle seemed to have woken up from its slumber.
The main hall of the castle was very large. There were magnificent candlesticks, flickering candlelight, a warm fireplace, and sparkling silver cutlery.
Everything seemed to have been waiting for Lü Luo and the others to arrive.
The banquet hall was filled with exquisite dishes. Although Lü Luo had not seen most of the dishes, he could tell that a lot of effort had been put into them.
"The scale of this banquet hall!"
[There's something wrong with the food. I'm not sure if it's a good or bad problem.]
Seeing this notification, Lü Luo frowned slightly, but he did not say anything.
Other than him, there were a few other people standing here.
These people were not very old. Most of them were about the same age as him. The oldest was about 30 years old.
Like Lü Luo, these people were constantly observing their surroundings.
At the same time, they were also observing the others because these people could become their future competitors.
That's right, when Lü Luo entered the banquet hall, he had already confirmed that these people were his competitors.
Some people were relaxed, some people were nervous, and some people were confident.
Seeing these different expressions, Lü Luo did not rush into the banquet hall. Instead, he stood at the entrance and thought for a while.
He did not know if the old Lizardman Ku Ding's words were a reminder.
If it was, then other than reminding him of the time, Ku Ding also wanted him to make more preparations.
This was a gift that the King of Nightmares had prepared for his mother, Qiu Guling, so the main bride would definitely be Qiu Guling.
Because Qiu Guling and Ludi had been entangled for 7 years, it was time to end it.
However, Lü Luo clearly remembered that the King of Nightmares had mentioned that the Bambusa Chinensis would also be one of the brides.
Since it was one of them, if Qi Xin Zhu was arranged to be the bride, could it be speculated that there would be other brides besides Qi Xin Zhu?
Moreover, if the ceremony was to be followed, then both the bride and groom had to be present.
The bride had already been chosen, so the men that appeared in the King of Nightmares' castle should be the groom selection.
Lü Luo himself was one of the groom candidates.
The next 16 hours should be the key to becoming the groom.
Back to the original question, how to become the groom.
Now, Lv Luo was sure of one thing. The groom needed a wedding ring! As well as formal wear! There was a high probability that he would need a wine glass
Thinking of this, Lv Luo took out the brass ring he had just obtained.
"Woman's Ring, one of the tokens of marriage. I've just entered the house, and I'm already one step ahead? Heh! "
Lü Luo laughed as he scanned the groom candidates. He found Gu Fangyi and Zhou Kai in the corner!
However, the distance between them was too far. Lü Luo walked while using the Observer to observe everyone.
What surprised Lü Luo was that he did not find Ludi among these people.
This was actually to be expected because most of the people present were of the same age.
It should be the King of Nightmares' intention. Lü Luo was not clear about the specific purpose.
However, he was certain that there was no existence that could break the rules with brute force. If Ludi appeared here, it would be too abnormal.
Thinking of this, Lü Luo laughed at himself. To the King of Nightmares, they were just a bunch of toys. There was no need to take him seriously.
"Ludi is the bride and Qiu Guling is fixed. This wedding game was originally held for him and Qiu Guling.
That is why they are the main characters of this wedding. Perhaps they have already met somewhere in the castle! "
Approaching the table again, the Observer gave him another notification.
[This food is very special. It feels like the material is not ordinary. You can try to touch it.]
"Special material! That's two notifications in a row. "
With the Observer's notification, Lü Luo walked towards the table. The fragrant food made his appetite whet.
He looked at the servants here. They were all beautiful Third Grade humanoid harpies.
These Harpies were all naked. Their bodies were only covered with a thin layer of feathers. They were extremely seductive.
The surrounding groom candidates had calm expressions, but some of them couldn't help but engage in simple interactions with these Harpies.
Then, in the darkness, she secretly bit off the neck of the person in front of her.
[This person is dead.]
"I know."
Lü Luo stopped one of them. This Harpy immediately twisted her chest and body in front of Lü Luo.
Her twin peaks rubbed against Lü Luo's arm as if she was trying to seduce him.
[This scale is similar to Bambusa Chinensis.]
However, Lü Luo wasn't very interested in creatures with fur. Moreover, his girls were all of higher quality.
"Oi oi, Miss Birdman. That's awkward. It's disgusting.
Let me ask you something. Can the food here be eaten? "
Disgusting? The Harpy servant obviously didn't expect Lü Luo to say something like this.
The servant was a little angry. Was this person a man?
Although she was angry, she still gave Lü Luo a charming smile.
"Sir, don't you want me? As long as we go to a place where there is no one, I can do anything! "
Lü Luo sized up this Harpy. He had also done things like CP in his previous life. To be honest, it was just for the sake of excitement.
In this life, he had turned white and was a decent person. The wasteland still needed him to save it. Mutant ~ Get out of here!
"Thank you, but no need. I have hairy phobia. Your body is too hairy, and it's chicken feathers. I can't stand it."
"These are eagle feathers!" The Harpy servant said angrily.
"It's the same. Just tell me if the food here can be eaten."
"These were originally prepared for you. Of course, you can eat them. However, you can only try one of the plates.
When you eat it, it's best to be careful! "
Be careful? Then there must be something wrong with the food. Was it poisonous or harmful? Or was it Death Flame?
To be honest, Lü Luo wasn't very afraid of these situations.
Perhaps he wasn't immune to poison yet, but even if he wasn't immune, it shouldn't be a problem for him to be immune to 95% of the poison.
The Observer had reminded him twice that there was something wrong with the food. This meant that there was something wrong.
"Then I'll eat it!"
Lü Luo's finger touched one of the plates, and the Observer's notification appeared.
[Sky-Devouring Snake meat. Seventh Grade Pure Mutant meat. Greatly increases Strength when consumed.]
Holy shit! There were no side effects?
Lü Luo picked up the chopsticks and fork on the table, poked at a piece of Sky-Devouring Snake meat, and put it into his mouth.
However, before he could chew, the Devourer was one step ahead of him. It dissected the meat perfectly.
[You have devoured Sky-Devouring Snake meat. Your Strength has increased by 0.1.]
"This … …"
Lü Luo's heart could no longer be described as shocked. He knew that an Eighth Grade Disaster was very powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so generous.
It was actually serving them food that could directly increase their strength?
"I only have one chance. I can't waste it!"
Lü Luo didn't say anything else. He picked up the plate and started wolfing down the food, attracting the attention of everyone around him.
Was this guy affected by some sort of mental ability? This was what many people were thinking about.
In such an unknown environment, not many of them dared to eat food they didn't recognize on the table.
However, Lü Luo didn't show any abnormalities after eating. This piqued the curiosity of some people.
If Lü Luo was fine eating like this, then shouldn't they try it as well?
Did this food have some sort of special effect?
One of them cut off a small piece of a plant that looked like brassica and put it into his mouth.
His expression was strange at first, then twisted. His body tensed up, and his clothes instantly tore apart!
Roar!
In just a few breaths, this person had turned from an ordinary human into a giant humanoid.
Fortunately, the people who came here were not weak. If a few Extraordinaires joined forces, they could easily kill him.
Holy light, energy fusion, and dark energy blasted the mutant's body.
Soon, this mutant crashed to the ground and was completely disintegrated by the energy.
People had arrived one after another. While Lü Luo was stealing food, the Observer didn't stop collecting information on the people here.
There were a total of 62 people left. Apart from Zhou Kai, all of them had extraordinary strength. Second Grades were the least, Third Grades were the most, and there were even some Fourth Grades.
One of them was someone Lü Luo knew.
A member of the Knights of Justice, Ziegfeld!
However, Lü Luo didn't greet Ziegfeld. They weren't familiar with each other, and they had even fought a few times. There was no need to get close to him.
Before he met up with Gu Fangyi and the others, the castle gate slowly closed.
The old lizard Ku Ding, who had greeted them earlier, walked to the center of the hall.
He bowed slightly towards Lü Luo and the others. Then, he waved his hands in the direction of the second floor.
A black horse galloped over!
"Nightmare!"
The people here exclaimed. Although Nightmare hadn't appeared for long, he was the most popular person in the East Loop.
The confrontation with Qiao Xing earlier had also earned Nightmare a lot of attention in the East Loop.
There were even figurines of Nightmare circulating in the streets. Many people had made Nightmare into a doll and kept them in their rooms.
Nightmare was powerful and beautiful. Many Transcendents in the East Loop wanted to defeat and conquer him.
Most of the people here were Grades 2 to 4. Under normal circumstances, they could only admire and look up to Nightmare from afar.
However, it was different now. They had seen Nightmare Lord's true body, and this meeting brought about a violent impact on their minds.
[Stop looking! He's using his ability.]
Lü Luo's lips trembled.
"I don't want to look either, but this guy is poisonous!
I subconsciously took a look, and I couldn't move my eyes away. What should we do now? "
Lü Luo was panicking. Not only could he not move his eyes away, but his body had also become stiff.
His heart beat along with Nightmare's steps. His breathing followed the rhythm of Nightmare's Death Flames.
At this moment, Lü Luo felt a power coming from his core. It was helping him resist Nightmare's power.
[Your Sequence A-00, Faithless, is working. You are very superstitious, so the power of Nightmare can't tempt you.]
Lü Luo's scalp was numb, but his eyes gradually became fierce.
His body, which had been unable to move before, was now able to move. He gritted his teeth.
"It's just a horse. There's no need to …"
Lü Luo finally moved his eyes away. He put his gaze back on the food in front of him and continued eating.
This seemingly ordinary action was very abrupt in the banquet hall at this moment.
The King of Nightmares naturally saw the scene of Lv Luo eating. It stomped its hooves and made a sound.
"Welcome to my mother's fainting ceremony. This will be a moment that we will remember for the rest of our lives.
All the mutants and humans in the East Loop will witness their fainting ceremony.
In order to celebrate this great moment, we need to bring some preludes and some interesting things to the ceremony.
For example, I've chosen some beautiful brides for you, and you need to … snatch them! "
Below the stage, more than 60 people stared at King of Nightmares without blinking. Only Lu Luo lowered his head and continued eating.
Nightmare smiled at Lü Luo's action of eating. He looked directly at Lü Luo and said,
"My brides are all the most outstanding and beautiful beings in existence.
But they are so beautiful and outstanding. What kind of person is worthy of them?
So, I found you. You are all the elites in the East Loop that I've carefully selected. You are also talents that I admire and like.
I've placed all the games and clues in the castle. The person who finds the token will become the groom of the matching bride!
Besides hugging the beauties, you can also get a little gift from me.
For example, Death Flames? Or Nightmare, who knows! Hahaha.
Okay, the banquet begins. Ku Ding, I'll leave it to you. "
After Nightmare finished speaking, he laughed and left.
"As you wish, my master."
Ku Ding bowed in Nightmare's direction and then looked at the 63 bridegroom candidates.
"I'm the host of this evening ceremony. My name is Ku Ding.
Since everyone is the winner of the game, let's play an interesting winner's game.
This is the banquet hall. Since it's a banquet, you need to eat.
There's a lot of food on the table, and it's all very valuable. Two of the candidates have already tried it, so we can't waste it.
The game is very simple. The majority obeys the minority.
There are 62 people here. The first person to grab a seat at the main table has the right to ask questions.
The questioner can ask a question with a yes or no answer, and the others can answer.
If the answer is yes, put the candidate's token in your left hand. If the answer is no, put it in your right hand. Don't let anyone see it!
The winner's answer is the winner, the majority's answer is the loser, and the tie is nullified.
The winner will be rewarded with a portion of food. This food was specially prepared for you by Lord Nightmare, so you can eat it without worry.
The questioner will be counted as the winner, enjoy the food, and advance to the next round.
Those who destroy the items in the room will be counted as the loser.
The loser will have to eat one stack of food on the table.
If the loser wants to participate again, he will have to eat two stacks of food on the table.
If the loser wants to leave the evening ceremony, he will have to eat two stacks of food on the table.
You have 60 seconds to answer each question. After each question, you will have 20 minutes to rest and eat.
When there are only 5 people left, the game will end. The winner will receive a token of the evening ceremony. "
When Lü Luo and the others were still digesting the rules of the game, Lizardman Ku Ding knocked on the table.
"Now, the game begins!"
It's starting?
A few of the more powerful and quick-witted candidates rushed straight to the main table. As they moved, some of them had already begun to fight with each other.
However, they controlled their strength reasonably because no one wanted to destroy the items here and become the loser.
Lü Luo didn't chase after the right to speak. Otherwise, with his strength, he would have the chance to speak!
He went straight to Gu Fangyi and Zhou Kai. The food here was a big problem.
If he ate the wrong food, Zhou Kai would be fine. He was in his mutant form and could rely on his plant form to survive.
However, Gu Fangyi couldn't. There was a high chance that something would happen to him. Therefore, Lü Luo had to be prepared.
He would try his best to help Gu Fangyi win. If he lost, he would tell Gu Fangyi which plate of food he could eat.
"Brother Gu, Brother Kai!"
"Brother Luo!"
"Coming!"
The three of them nodded at each other. At this time, Gu Fangyi and Zhou Kai were relieved to be with Lü Luo.
Bang! The sound of the table shaking could be heard from the end of the long table.
The plates on the table shook, but fortunately, they didn't fall or break.
The candidates who were fighting for seats were slightly relieved. If they didn't get a seat and were judged to have failed, it would be terrible.
The three of them looked at the main table. A long-faced man had already snatched a seat at the main table. He glanced at the others with his long and narrow eyes and started to ask questions.
"Hehe, I didn't expect it to be me. My first question is very simple. Are you here to participate in the evening ceremony?"
