The joyful singing came to an end when the door of the banquet hall opened again … But Mr. Varley was still flirtatious on the stage.
"Let me introduce the most outstanding guest tonight, Miss Gong Linna —!"
At this time, Mr. Varley dashed to the beautiful woman who had just opened the door and looked at everything in the banquet hall in a daze. In the last half of the dance, Mr. Varley even knelt on the ground and slid all the way to the beautiful woman.
"Huh?" The eldest daughter of the Tzimisi Family was startled, but she reacted quickly.
Facing Mr. Varley's unusual way of introduction, she lifted her skirt with both hands and gave a slight salute … It was impeccable.
At this moment, a round of applause rang out. The ghoul bodyguards … This was the [Emergency] Response from the [Signal] given by the twin maids.
"I'm glad you're here, my sister." Mr. Varley hugged Miss Gong Linna gently, whispering in her ear, "May our friendship last forever."
"I saw the supervisor … Varley, what do you mean?" Miss Gong Linna gently pushed him away, smiling calmly, "Are you introducing me to a dance partner?"
"If you want." Mr. Varley showed a thought-provoking smile, holding Miss Gong Linna's hand and walking to the center of the banquet hall, saying loudly, "I hereby announce that tonight's banquet has officially begun. First … of course, we'll start with our delicious food. "
Chef Narson slowly pushed the dining cart to the front of the crowd.
He gave them a look, and Tang Tianlin and Nan Xiaonan had no choice but to brace themselves under the gazes of the crowd. Step by step, they walked out of the dining cart and opened the lids one by one … They knew what these delicacies were.
During the cooking, Tang Tianlin could still keep calm probably because of his profession … But during the cooking of the brain flower, Nan Xiaonan's face was pale all the time.
She kept vomiting … Even the Immortal Realm experts from the otherworld had seen blood, so they only felt some physical discomfort.
"Oh, it's the blood fountain. I like this dish, really." Miss Gong Linna smiled. "And my favorite brain flower … It seems like you've put in a lot of effort. Chef Nelson, thank you for your meticulous preparation tonight."
The so-called blood fountain was a miniature, multi-tiered fountain filled with warm blood of just the right viscosity. The blood would slowly flow down and become active. Then, with a small stick or fork, the food would be picked up and dipped into the thick blood on the fountain … and eaten.
In fact, the way it was eaten was similar to chocolate or cheese hotpot.
At this moment, the air was filled with the faint smell of blood … The strange blood fountain trays were carved with sinister and twisted human bodies.
Vampires wouldn't suppress their instincts in front of fresh blood … Small, sharp fangs had already emerged from the lips of the various vampires.
Under such circumstances, those who did not show these symptoms immediately became very conspicuous.
At this time, Tang Tianlin was even prepared to break out of the encirclement at any time. But for some reason, these vampires did not seem to care about them. At this time, they had already started to share the [Food] on the dining car.
Of course, those bodyguards in black looked normal at this moment … But they more or less showed their yearning for the blood fountain.
But Tang Tianlin found something strange. If he and Nan Xiaonan had somehow become the people of the ancient castle because of Mr. Butler, so they did not attract attention for the time being, then what about the two passengers who had broken down on the road during the day?
At this moment, they seemed to have been forgotten — They were standing here, right in front of everyone.
Even when Tang Tianlin's eyes met with Luoqiu's, Boss Luo smiled and nodded.
"It's so strange … Those two guys." Tang Tianlin quietly said to Nan Xiaonan at this time, "It seems that no one has noticed them."
"No, didn't you just notice?" Nan Xiaonan shrugged at this time.
Tang Tianlin was suddenly speechless — Nan Xiaonan was right, didn't he notice it himself … The ones who didn't notice it seemed to be this group of vampires?
As such, while Tang Tianlin was still in doubt, the [Food] on the dining car had been finished unknowingly … Actually, there wasn't much brain matter for one person. These vampires only ate a small portion each, and it was more or less enough.
Mr. Varley wiped his lips at this time and smiled, "This is just the appetizer, the main dish is still to come."
With that, Mr. Varley clapped his hands directly … The chef, Mr. Nelson, understood and slowly walked to the corner of the banquet hall … He suddenly pulled down a rope that was hanging down.
After that, the entire wall began to slowly descend … After it descended, there were actually many lattice rooms on the wall.
One side of the lattice room was a glass curtain wall facing the banquet hall. In the lattice room, there were boys and girls wearing different clothes with different styles.
"Dear sir, miss." Mr. Cook slowly said at this time, "This is tonight's main dish … I've prepared the taste."
"[Farm]?" Mr. Cor of the monitoring team couldn't help but frown at this time, "These are … ancient humans? Varley, you actually hid [Ancient humans] in your home, and even made yourself a … small [Farm]? "
"Oh, Cor, my good friend." Mr. Varley smiled at this time, "Not every ancient human has their birth certificate … If they can't prove their origin, who will care about this?"
Mr. Cor of the monitoring team was suddenly speechless … This kind of [Farm] delicacy had always been enjoyed by the nobles of the big clans. It was an extremely luxurious enjoyment.
But to the vampires in the monitoring team, they could only be bestowed with rewards if they made contributions. Most of the monitoring team members were from ordinary vampires or small families in the vampire world. Only a small number of them were collateral relatives of the 13 clans.
At this time, Miss Gong Linna's pair of beautiful eyes looked at the lattice room as if looking for a suitable prey … Recently, due to the revolution of ancient humans in the [Inhuman Domain], many blood seeds began to be contaminated. In order to ensure the purity of the blood seeds, the clans had begun to clean up the large [Farms] … However, the new batch of [Crops] hadn't grown yet, causing the blood price to rise.
Although the nobles could still barely maintain the supply … but this young lady of the Tzimische Family had her own ideas. Therefore, in order to win the support of a large number of middle and lower class, she had begun to share the joys and sorrows of the middle and lower class. The most important thing was to use the blood that she had prepared.
It seemed that she should come to this ancient castle more often … She had to raise a large number of subordinates, so her finances were quite tight. But Varley was different. As one of the heirs of the Tzimische Family, he had never participated in the internal strife of the family. But after so many years, although the portion given to the heirs each year was not much, it was only used to raise this ancient castle, so there should be a large surplus.
What a rich little brother.
After thinking about this, Miss Gong Linna suddenly felt that her luck was not bad today.
Although she didn't know the purpose of Varley inviting her here … but the vampire's pursuit of the ultimate blood came from the instinct. No vampire would resist when facing their instinct.
Miss Tzimische's fangs seemed to have become a little sharper because of this.
"Before we officially start the meal, let's play a game." Mr. Varley opened his hands at this time, "As a show to liven things up, I've decided to give the winner of the game a treasure from my personal collection as a reward, and the winner will have the first right to choose food."
"Game?" Miss Gong Linna seemed to think of something at this time. She said with a strange expression, "Varley, don't tell me you want to … play cards?"
"Sure enough, you are my dearest sister." Mr. Varley smiled at this time, "You really know me too well."
Miss Gong Linna couldn't help but sigh. There was a kind of realization in her heart: What should come will come after all.
This was the reason why she didn't like to be a guest at Varley's house: This guy liked to drag others to play cards with him every time. No matter what he did, it would eventually become a game of cards, no matter who came.
Vampires had no way to stop Varley from playing cards.
"Mr. Varley, we didn't come here for …"
Mr. Cor frowned at this time. The rumor that the libertine of the Tzimische Family liked to play cards was spread in almost all the clans. It was rumored that Mr. Varley was even driven out by the Grand Duke of the Tzimische Family because of playing cards … The reason was that when he played cards with the Grand Duke, he crushed the Grand Duke with a flying dragon.
"Let's talk after the game." Mr. Varley glanced at the captain of the monitoring team at this time.
Mr. Cor couldn't help but shudder at this glance … At this moment, he seemed to vaguely feel a murderous intent.
"It seems that everyone has no opinion." Mr. Varley smiled at this time.
Then, he asked the twin maids to bring a box and put it in front of everyone. Then, he put a pair of numbered balls into the box.
"Now, let's start to divide into groups." Mr. Varley smiled at this time, "Two people in a group … please. Everyone here … except for the bodyguards upstairs, come over and draw lots to be divided into groups. "
With that said, Mr. Varley was the first to reach into the box and pulled out a small ball with the number [9] written on it. "Number 9! Then, the person who draws [10] will be in a group with me … and so on, [1] and [2] will be in a group. Do you understand? "
Miss Gong Linna obviously played this game before. At this time, after Mr. Varley, she was the second to reach out to draw … Then, the housekeeper, the family doctor, and the twin maids walked over one by one.
"Let's go and draw lots." Mr. Chef looked at Tang Tianlin and Nan Xiaonan at this time and said.
"We … we also want to draw lots?" Nan Xiaonan couldn't help but frown.
Mr. Nelson said indifferently, "Didn't you hear what the master said … except for the bodyguards upstairs, of course, it includes you."
With that, Mr. Nelson went straight to the box for drawing lots … Tang Tianlin and Nan Xiaonan looked at each other at this time and had to wait and see, following Mr. Nelson.
At this time, Nan Xiaonan paid attention. She found that Mr. Luo had taken his female companion to the drawing box one step ahead of them.
"This guy, don't tell me he came here with the mentality of killing time …" The Immortal powerhouse of the otherworld couldn't help but mutter in his heart at this time.
With doubts in her heart, Nan Xiaonan tried her best to see what number Mr. Luo had drawn … However, such a simple method of drawing lots was really effective for a group of inhuman beings.
However, when she reached into the box, she understood that this box seemed to have the ability to isolate all perception, so what was drawn seemed to be completely random.
Nan Xiaonan looked at her small ball, number [1].
"What's yours?" She subconsciously looked at Tang Tianlin.
Tang Tianlin frowned at this time and released the small ball in his hand. The number on the ball was [11].
Nan Xiaonan was startled and said, "I just saw that Miss Gong Linna's number is [12], so you …"
Tang Tianlin nodded silently and became silent. At this time, Miss Gong Linna seemed to have noticed this and looked at Tang Tianlin with a hint of interest.
Finally, it was the three vampires of the monitoring team.
After they finished drawing lots, Mr. Varley asked the twin maids to pack up the box for drawing lots. After that, the butler, Mr. Lesa, held another wooden box in both hands and slowly walked out.
After putting down the box, they opened it up and laid it out … Then, a 1m x 1m large chessboard appeared before everyone's eyes. There were many squares on the chessboard, seemingly for walking. In the middle of the chessboard, there was a golden die and a small box. Inside the box, there were many cards … The words [Function Card] were written on the box.
"Let's team up first." Mr. Varley raised the [9] ball in his hand at this time, "Then, the person with the [10] ball, please come in front of me … So do the others."
Everyone looked at each other, and finally, one of the two subordinates of Cor of the monitoring team walked to Mr. Varley with some anxiety.
The team formation began.
Nan Xiaonan's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch at this time — She found that the person with the adjacent number was actually the butler of the castle.
A feeling of being in trouble spontaneously arose … She could only sigh and walked to the butler as if she was appointed — At this time, she saw that Boss Luo and Miss Maid were still standing together.
Their numbers were adjacent to each other … This Immortal Master of the otherworld suddenly laughed in her heart.
Haha.
You dare say you didn't cheat?
…
…
There were a total of seven groups.
Nan Xiaonan and the butler of the castle were in a group. Tang Tianlin and Gong Linna, the eldest daughter of the Cimisi Family, were in a group. The owner of the castle and member of the monitoring team A were in a group. As for the twin maids, they were unexpectedly divided into a group. The family doctor and the chef were in a group. Mr. Cor and his other subordinate, B, were in a group. Finally, Boss Luo and Miss Maid were in a group.
Mr. Varley looked around at this time, then smiled and said, "Then, each group, please discuss the person who will throw the points, as well as the hero … I'll explain here, as the hero, you need to enter the chessboard and become the card we want to play."
