Chapter 356 - Night Dinner (2) (2/2)
On that day, Zero and the others thought that after killing the creator Gulad, the danger in Remot was resolved. However, this was not the case. In Gurad’s plan, a plan to infiltrate the Remot had begun quietly and finally succeeded.
The troops led by Avenot were lured away by the living corpse, which eventually led to a tragedy. I heard that the majority of the Remot’s residents died in battle along with a part of the Asgard’s garrison.
Su Yun thought that Theon would not be able to escape, but unexpectedly, she saw him at Asgard’s place.
Theon closed his eyes and said painfully: “I had originally wanted to accompany Remot and Pera to death, but Mr. Avenot actually saved me. And now that His Excellency Douglas has given me a foothold in this wonderful city, I will close my eyes and see the dead. ”
He shook his head and said with a bitter smile, “My dream is over. “But you are different. Zero, you have only just started.”
Su Yun was speechless. At this time, the door opened and the Helper said to everyone in the room: “Everyone, please follow me. The banquet is about to begin.”
The banquet officially began with the performance of an impassioned tune by the 300-man honor guard. The hall was a magnificent place, with soft yellow lights flashing in every face. Women in noble dresses and polite men talked to each other, and a show of hypocrisy played out on this huge stage.
Helper carrying fine wine and food shuttled back and forth in the crowd. Music and human voices intertwined and created a magnificent picture scroll.
When he saw the Great Hall, Zero felt as if time had gone wrong. The wilderness and the apocalypse were nothing more than a dream. He couldn’t be blamed. After all, warriors like Zero rarely had the chance to go to such occasions. Not only was this feeling formed, even Su and the others were stunned. Only Berrien did not seem to find it strange and directly walked towards the competition grounds.
“His Excellency Douglas would not have held a warrior promotion ceremony on such an occasion for no reason at all. “One of them will definitely want you to integrate into the upper class. Don’t miss this opportunity.” Theon smiled, as if he had returned to that graceful man from before. But in his eyes, that pained divine light hidden deep within betrayed him.
Theon only changed into a mask, he then said to Su Yun in a low voice: “I’ll come and reminisce with you later, I’ll take my leave first.”
With a nod of his head, Theon turned his walking stick and walked towards the crowd. There were a few people who were born with the ability to communicate with others. Theon was undoubtedly such a person. As for zero, that was no doubt not the case.
According to the procedure of the dinner party, Ben’s speech was to be held in conjunction with the buffet, which was a relatively free process in which all the guests were free to move around and talk to those who were interested, without any restrictions. As for the process of advancement, it was the process of advancement for those who were at the zeroth rank. Finally, there were speeches from some big shots, after which the dinner would be over. Of course, if the guests were unwilling to leave, they could still stay. In any case, the banquet party had already prepared to work all night, and they would definitely provide food and wine.
Although, in name, these few warriors who survived Jodtenheim’s battles were the main characters in the banquet. But in fact, there were many people who were much more eye-catching than them. Amongst them, the ones who received the most attention were none other than Valkyrie and Loki.
war goddess’s silver dress tonight perfectly reflected her icy temperament. From the moment Valkyrie entered the stage, the gazes of nearly 80% of the males in the hall stopped on her for a long time. There had never been a moment when Zero complained about the sharpness of his senses, or he wouldn’t have had to listen to the murmurs of the music and the noise in the hall.
“Look, the goddess’s figure is really good.”
“Yeah, I think it’s more exciting to get her into bed.”
“I really want to taste her taste.”
The nobles did not represent nobility. The erosion of life had corroded the minds of these people, and the high status of power had caused their desires to lose control of the shackles. Thus, in the eyes of zero, these so-called nobles were sometimes even more immoral than wild beasts.
These obscene words would not escape Valkyrie’s ears as well. Su Ming thought that if the situation and the time were not so wrong, these people who dared to point fingers at her would probably have already been greeted by Valkyrie’s war lance.
Just as he was thinking, Valkyrie seemed to have sensed and looked towards the direction where she went. Immediately, their gazes met in midair. She raised the wine cup in her hand towards Valkyrie. Valkyrie’s face was cold all the way until this moment when she saw zero.
Although it was just a smile, it was breathtakingly stunning.
