Chapter 1351 Restaurant Rumors

"I see, we are honored to host you. The snow is indeed too heavy. Please come in quickly. The family members are having a meal. Please come with me. The host will be happy to have you dining with us."

With that said, the old ghost housekeeper and the maid led Shade towards the corridor on the left side of the first floor. So far, the undead maid, like the butler, has strong elements of whispers, undead power, the crazy curse of the earth, and the feeling of demonic corruption. With such complex forces mixed together, even Shade couldn't tell which one was the original relic just by looking at it with his eyes.

But at least Shade understood the nature of the "Crazy Land" he encountered this time. It was still different from the past. This time, the scenery within the "Crazy Land" became a complete whole, allowing any creature that entered the scene to Forgetting the existence of the outside world, he only thought that this area was the whole world, and then turned into dust in the curse, causing the scope of the curse to continue to expand.

This special twisted nature is the perfect match for this kind of relic, but I don’t know whether the appearance of the relic induced the distortion of the land, or the distortion of the land attracted this special relic.

The entire mansion was dilapidated, the blood-stained red carpet blended with dust, and the broken floor made Shade worry that the ground would collapse with every step he took. Normal time is still morning, but due to the influence of the relic, it is always dark here. The glass lampshade of the gas lamp in the mansion was almost completely covered with dust. In the dim corridor, it could only illuminate a small area under the lamp.

When following the old housekeeper inward, Shade felt like he was simply walking through darkness. The dim light was like a bait to trap prey, waiting for him ahead.

The smell of decay, rotting corpses, and feces became worse as it got closer to the restaurant. While walking through the corridor, Shade also noticed that there were many undead servants in the house, and most of them were corpses and ghosts.

In fact, this is a normal situation. Before all the deaths, the Watson family was also a well-known local wealthy businessman. Maintaining such a large family manor naturally requires enough servants and maids. Like Oxenfurt Manor, it is not the case. unusual.

Because the house is not particularly large, the restaurant does not have the function of a banquet hall. It is just connected to the kitchen as a place for the family to eat. Only the upper half of the wooden door outside the restaurant was still connected to the deformed door frame by iron sheets, and the door itself was stained with black blood.

Shade did not dare to activate [Echo of Blood] in this environment. He was worried that he would be blinded by the red light everywhere.

After the old housekeeper knocked on the door, an old man's voice came from the restaurant. After receiving permission, the housekeeper and maid led Shade inside.

At this time, Shade had completely held his breath, because the smell here was actually more terrifying than the [Worm Cave].

At the entrance of the restaurant, you have to go down the steps on both sides. This is a semi-underground room. The entire restaurant is not particularly large and has no windows. There is a fireplace on the wall opposite the door. On the left is an old wooden cabinet with dishes and plates. On the top of the cabinet are three maggot-covered human heads. On the right is the door leading to the kitchen.

There was a long wooden table without a tablecloth in the center of the room, but it was said to be a long table. There were five people sitting around it, and only one end of the seat was empty.

Sitting at the end of the table is an old ghoul whose clothes are still intact. His exposed skin has completely turned blue. Because the skin and flesh are really loose, there are wrinkles all over his body, like Wearing ill-fitting clothes. At the same time, he is also the one who seems to have been most corrupted by the demonic power so far. His body has four arms, one on the left and three on the right. His whole body smells of sulfur, and his face has eight eyes.

No need for Shade to guess, the old butler introduced his identity. He was none other than the owner of the manor, Old Watson, the father of Hailey Oxenfurt.

Among the other four people sitting across from each other at the table, the ghostly old woman with a light green transparent spirit is the mistress of the manor and the mother of Hai·Osenfurt; she is huddled on a stool with a long hair. The rat tail is a monster that looks like a child. It is the son of old Watson and the brother of Sea Oxenfurt. He must have been 29 years old when he died. He was extremely fat and appeared when he was sitting on a stool. The fat almost covered the back of the chair, and the whole body was pink and looked like something from an ogre. He was the younger brother of the owner of the manor, Old Watson, and the uncle of Sea Oxenfurt; as for the last one who covered his face and cried Transparent Soul is a succubus from one of the special undead races. She is the youngest daughter in the family and the sister of Sea Oxenfurt.

In addition, there is a ghost dog lying on the ground. This thing is chewing a human hand bone.

As for the smell, it comes entirely from the family’s food. Shade didn't really want to use his eyes to distinguish or use words to describe the things stacked on the table. Simply put, putrid animal carcasses are the most food-like things among them. The human corpses that had been decaying for an unknown period of time, the obvious dilute feces, and other things that Shade didn't even want to guess were the real sources of the stench.

Just one glance at it made Xia De extremely regretful that he had eaten breakfast this morning. The churning feeling in his stomach became more and more intense, and he could only desperately imagine the scene of Mia running around in front of him, trying to suppress the discomfort with something that made him happy.

This is not discomfort caused by the whispering element or demonic power, it is purely an instinctive reaction of the human body. In some ways, unless the human body is abandoned, this is more difficult to contain than the supernatural curse.

"What a distinguished guest. Welcome, the emperor's envoy. Please forgive our poor hospitality. I wonder if we can invite you to have dinner with us?"

Because of the ring, Shade was treated very kindly. Although the old ghoul who spoke spoke decently, his voice still sounded like "snoring", which was quite difficult to distinguish.

"Of course, it's my honor to bother you. Please call me Mr. Watson. The ruler of Witton has given me a special task."

He forced a smile and sat down. Fortunately, the plates on the table were not very full, and there was no "food" on the table in front of the originally empty seat.

"Mr. Watson, what do you like to eat?"

The hostess of the manor, the soul of the fallen lady asked, her voice had an indescribable weirdness.

So all the monsters at the table each took their own "food" and looked in the direction of Shade. Shade's smile almost froze.

[If you eat these foods, you are very likely to obtain spiritual runes such as "disease", "dirty" and "feces". 】

"She" prompted softly.

"Stop joking now!"

Xia De said in his heart and quickly organized his words:

"My master, Miss Violet, does not allow me to eat other people's food outside to prevent me from delaying my trip. However, please allow me to invite everyone to drink together as a thank you?"锌锔锡 male bei?"

As he spoke, he reached into the inside of his coat and took out a red wine bottle. Fortunately, no one cared about where the wine bottle came from, and the ghost maid on the side also filled up the wine for everyone.

Shad used the cup he brought with him and took a sip eagerly. He had never liked drinking, and for the first time he felt that alcohol had such a delicious taste.

The old ghoul suggested that everyone raise a toast together, and after putting down the cup, the fat ogre and old Watson’s brother asked again:

"Oh, Mr. Envoy, the suitcase you are carrying makes me feel very uncomfortable. What is that?"

Xia De’s expression remained unchanged:

"That is the important item that my master, Emperor Violet, asked me to send to the Serkses Higher Medical School. I think even country nobles like you should know what that academy means."

The old ghoul still speaks in a "snoring" voice:

"Of course, it is one of the greatest witch academies. I had planned to send my two daughters to study there."

It is absolutely impossible for an ordinary person, Old Watson, to know about the "Serkeses Higher Medical School". This should be the common sense of life in the fifth era given to him by the relics.

Xia De then looked at the weeping banshee, and then followed his words and asked:

"You have two daughters? I only saw this beautiful little princess. Is your other daughter already married?"

The undead succubus who was praised by Shade still covered her face and sobbed softly. Sea Oxenfurt's brother, the small monster with a rat tail, replied:

"Yes, I have a sister who is married to a nasty guy on the other side of town."

These people seemed not to remember how they died, but when it came to Hai?'s marriage, everyone became gloomy. The indoor temperature has dropped slightly, and the light in the already dark underground restaurant has also become darker.

Because of the alchemy items of Priest August, it is not difficult for Shade to solve them, but Shade still remembers why he came here.

He held his breath while holding the wine glass, pretending to be interested and said:

"An annoying guy? Yes, the families of married girls always hate the man who kidnapped their girl. You have reason to hate him."

"But that guy is not just annoying, he deserves to die!"

The fat monster with all the fat on his body slashed **** the table with the kitchen knife in his hand. All the food on the table was shaking, making the diffuse stench even more obvious.

"If he is so damned, why did he let that girl get married? He is very rich?"

Xia De asked again, but this time there was no answer. Except for the banshee who covered her face and cried, the other four people looked at him with a total of 27 eyes:

"Money? Every penny he has is stained with the blood of innocent people. Will we want his money?"
