Chapter 398: Food at the inn

Chapter 398 Food at the inn

Jin is never picky,

Even though the bedding here had a strange smell, she still sat on the bed as soon as possible, making the most of her free time.

“William, I find that your words and deeds are inconsistent. When you were in the passage before, you said you wanted to cause less trouble, but now you choose to stay in this weird hotel. What are you thinking?”

Yi Chen, who was sitting at the wooden table and thinking, gave the answer:

“Because the exit of the passage was so different from what I expected, I wanted to see what the nature of the inn was, as well as the nature of the parasites and what they were trying to do.

 What the two of us just showed were the forms of the [dead person] and the [cancer person],

Logically speaking, we are fully qualified to carry out relevant activities in the old world, and the forces behind it are also very obvious.

If these parasites still do something small while we are staying in the hotel, or even want to kill us, we can deduce two things:

  1. This group of parasites is very special. They don’t care about the opinions of the source area, and they don’t even worry about being hunted down.

   2. They regard individuals in the outside world as completely hostile. Regardless of whether we express symptoms or not, they will eliminate us at all costs or occupy us parasitically.

 Once the above conclusion is established,

This kind of parasite is a huge threat to our world, to organizations, and even to the entire human civilization.

If we leave here and wait until the [Channel] is completely corrupted by them, we will defeat Mr. Allman through the human sea tactic and parasitize in Mr. Allman's body to steal memories, posing a major threat to the organization.

 So I decided to stay for a day to explore their bottom.

 If necessary, kill them all. "

"Great!"

 Jin raised her arms above her head to make a scissor-hand movement. She didn't think as much as Yi Chen did. The future of the organization had nothing to do with her, as long as she had fun with it.

 This kind of killing of novel species is exactly what Jin likes.

 Since the concept of time has been erased in the old world,

 The "people" in the inn have different sleeping and eating patterns. The dining area on the first floor is almost always crowded with people, and the dishes in the kitchen are almost always available.

Since you want to explore the inside of this inn, it is better to go to the lobby on the first floor to experience the eating process.

 After waiting for half an hour, the table in the corner of the first floor was vacated.

Yi Chen saw the right opportunity and pulled Jin downstairs immediately. Just when he was about to sit down, a fat palm also fell on the table.

This fat palm corresponds to a tall man with concave facial bones. Although it is similar to a human being, the belly of the big man has obvious "link patterns", like Michelin tires, and somewhat similar to the flesh of maggots.

Moreover, there was a strange-looking girl sitting on his shoulders.

The girl's eyes are about three times the size of a normal person, and fangs and a slender, curly tongue occasionally appear in her mouth. Her slender hands with hairy wrists are constantly rubbing.

 “This is our place.”

 The big man's attitude was extremely tough, and he even moved his tire-shaped belly to serve it on the table.

Yi Chen did not express his position, and did not intend to take action until he found out the situation of the inn. Moreover, when he was observing the first floor, he had already noticed that the big man carrying the girl came to the inn earlier than them. The other party had indeed been waiting for a long time.

 Just when Yi Chen was about to give up the throne,

  唰!

The sword's edge, which was outlined with bloodshot eyes and had tumors on its surface, was already placed on the big man's neck.

Jin’s body is also constantly overflowing with killing intent.

The tense atmosphere attracted the attention of many people who came to the inn. Many people even looked longingly, hoping to see the beautiful scene of bodily fluids, limbs and organs flying around.

finally,

The girl sitting on the big man's shoulders spoke a sharp and annoying Old World language:

“Baby, let’s go~

 Since we have determined that we are not qualified to go to the other side, there is not much point in staying here to eat. If you get hungry on the way back, the mother will lay eggs for you to eat. "

 “Mom’s eggs! So good, so good!”

Like an imbecile, the big man shook his fat, maggot-like body and quickly left the inn.

 Yi Chen looked at this strange mother and son, carefully studying the words they just said.

   "Not qualified to go to the other side," you mean crossing the passage, right?

 Could it be that the real way to make money for this inn is to collect 'tolls' from the sick people of the Old World heading to the other side, or something else? 』

At this moment, the clerk rushed over and asked, "Have the two guests come down to eat? For free guests, we will only provide seasonal meals. If you want to order a meal, you need to pay extra."

 “What are the seasonal meals?”

“That is, fresh food made temporarily using ingredients available in the kitchen.”

 “Then choose seasonal food.”

"okay!"

Yichen probably knew that the currency in circulation in the old world was an ancient coin. It must be that the cost of such a special inn connected to the passage must be high.

The food delivery speed of the inn is really fast, and the dishes were brought out in less than five minutes.

One portion was served in a large iron pot, and it was even bubbling inside, as if it had just been stewed over a strong fire. The other portion was served on a small dinner plate.

When the food was brought to the table, Yi Chen's expression immediately turned into a ball, and he even felt a little psychologically uncomfortable.

 Being stewed in the large pot, in addition to the big bones with meat, there are also pieces of gelatinous white skin with obvious traces of links on the surface. There are even sunken grapes and a few kelp threads floating on the surface.

 As for what’s on the dinner plate, it’s even more obvious.

 A severed "monkey brain" was placed directly on top, as if it had only been pickled raw.

The eyeballs that are far larger than ordinary people are dimmed due to death, and the dense structure of compound eyes can be clearly seen.

 The skeleton is connected to the bottom of the head. After being roasted, the sliced ​​meat has a feeling of BJ roast duck. It is neatly placed on both sides of the dinner plate.

In addition, there is a pair of fly wings that match its size for decoration, and a plate of white sauce made from the eggs inside the body.

Although Yi Chen had eaten all kinds of strange dark dishes in the orphanage during his lifetime, this kind of food was disgusting to look at. He would not have eaten if he was not hungry.

   The mother and son just now? How long has it been, and less than ten minutes since they left the table, such food has been prepared... This inn is not simple. 』

Seeing that Yi Chen had not eaten for a long time, the clerk came closer and said:

“If you are not satisfied with the seasonal food, you can spend money to buy other food.”

At this moment, Jin actually put a piece of stewed white skin full of protein into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it, and showed his thumb afterward.

“It tastes good~ William, you should try it quickly, just like eating bugs! When I was chained in the basement when I was a child, I relied on these little guys to make a living.”

"Jin, you can eat~ I'm not very hungry yet. By the way, do you have the currency of the old world?"

“Yes, Master gave me a whole bag when I left the cancer palace.”

 “It doesn’t have to be one bag, just one.”

 Jin immediately inserted his arm into his waist and took out an ancient coin from between the abdominal organs.

  The coin is made of a special sedimentary rock, which is even harder than any metal seen in human society, and is overall white-gray in color.

The front of the coin is engraved with a vertical and horizontal structure similar to neurons, and you can even see a very intuitive three-dimensional feeling.

On the back are chain-like molecules similar to DNA and RNA. When viewed from different angles, it can even feel like these chain-like molecules are swimming among the coins.

By injecting pathogens into the coin, a flagellum-like tentacle structure will grow on the edge of the coin to verify its authenticity.

The clerk who had not gone far was called back by Yi Chen, and he slapped the coin directly into his hand.

After confirming that it was a genuine ancient coin, the clerk’s right eyeball fell off due to excitement.

 Plop! It just fell into the steaming iron pot of stew.

 He immediately took out another spare eyeball from his body and installed it, and the one that fell into the pot was given to the customers for consumption.

 “Are you going to add vegetables?”

 “No…I want to ask you some questions.”
