Me too.
"Me too."
"We are all the same."
Everyone stood up and spoke.
"We were all comrades who relied on each other on the battlefield." Tao Jing stood up, holding a glass of wine in her hand.
“I, Miss Eleanor, Mr. Teandolo, and many other warriors, we are all equally important.”
After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.
Irene said, "Miss Tao Jing's idea is also my idea, so please don't thank me."
"Hahaha, I can't do anything else, but I'll drink this for everyone, and then I'll do a sword dance to liven things up." Yu Chengyue downed a bowl of baijiu in one gulp, then picked up his sword and jumped onto the stage to start dancing.
Seeing this, Gavin jumped onto the stage as well: "Old man, I'll join too! The swordsmanship of British knights is not to be outdone."
"Good, good, good." Yu Chengyue laughed.
An old man and a young man were sparring on stage, and everyone watching applauded excitedly.
……
the other side.
Guanghai City, Xia State.
A group of handsome men and beautiful women walked along a bustling street, chatting and laughing, attracting the attention of passersby.
However, passersby just thought that since they were so good-looking, they must be extraordinary individuals, perhaps even extraordinary individuals who had obtained immortal runes and were having a team-building activity, so no one came to chat with them.
It is common knowledge that becoming a superhuman will subtly improve one's appearance and physique, and the more powerful a superhuman is, the more handsome or beautiful they are.
"Holy crap! There's a spiny worm in the sewer!" a high school student exclaimed as he passed by the manhole cover.
It instantly attracted the attention of those around, and instead of being afraid, passersby gathered around.
The man, who looked like an office worker and was carrying a briefcase, said, "Where is the Spine Worm? I am an Awakened One, and my ability is telekinesis. Everyone move aside, I'll catch it."
“I am also an Awakened One, but I don’t have any awakened abilities. I should be able to help.”
"Help me my ass! It's just a small spinal worm, not a spinal worm king. I'll catch it and send it to the 'Superhuman Management Center'."
One by one, passersby displayed their unique skills, managing to pull a half-meter-long spinal worm out of the sewer.
"Run, you little punk, think you can escape? I'll shoot you in the head."
"Let's go, I have to go to work."
Los Saint and his group watched silently from a distance.
Maido whispered, "Why do I feel so sorry for that spine-borne worm?"
Bai Yuekui crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows. The prevalence of supernatural abilities in Xia Kingdom is too high. Six out of ten people have initially awakened 'Willpower', five out of ten who have initially awakened have entered 'Turbulent State', and two out of ten in 'Turbulent State' have awakened their abilities.
This country has achieved universal superhuman abilities, but the number of people who can use elemental power is still relatively small, with only one in ten thousand people on average. In other words, there are about 14 people in the country who can use elemental power.
Of the 1.4 billion people in China, only 140,000 possess elemental powers. If these 140,000 people are dispersed across the country, each city would only have a few to a few dozen such individuals.
"Let's go, everyone. I've already made reservations at the restaurant," Buyer said gently. In the past, when there were fewer people, they could go to a buffet, but now that there are more people, that's not an option. Besides, money is just a number to the gods; they wouldn't go to a buffet just to get something for free.
"Let's go, let's go~ It's more fun to eat together, right, Brother Luo?" Maiduo skipped happily as she walked away.
“A family dinner…” Ereshkigal covered her lips with both hands, glancing at Los Saint out of the corner of her eye as his cheeks flushed slightly.
Quetzal raised his hand and shouted, "Oh~ let's have a contest to see who's the biggest eater today!"
Ishtar proudly puffed out her chest and raised her head: "Who would lose to you? At least when it comes to eating, I won't lose."
Yae no Miko was somewhat surprised: "This is the banquet of the gods? It's not quite what I imagined."
"I have a feeling something bad is going to happen." Luo Sheng's temples began to throb as he looked at the goddesses, each with their own thoughts.
Chapter 125: The Trojan War at the Dinner Table, and the Goddesses' Confessions
"Welcome." At the entrance of the magnificent hotel, two rows of waiters bowed and greeted Luo Sheng and his party as they arrived, chatting and laughing.
Upon seeing this, the lobby manager hurriedly came out from behind the front desk: "Welcome, esteemed guests." Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He was an extraordinary individual who had awakened his abilities, ranking among the top 10,000 in the list of extraordinary individuals in Guanghai City. He had even completed three city-wide bounty missions. He felt that he was not far from obtaining the 'Immortal Mark', but the aura emanating from these incredibly handsome distinguished guests gave him a profound shock.
When he participated in the 'City Bounty Mission', he had the good fortune to meet two second-tier extraordinary individuals who had obtained 'Immortal Marks'. They were both prominent figures in Guanghai City, and they possessed an unfathomable aura.
At this moment, the handsome men and beautiful women in this group had an even more unfathomable aura than those second-tier extraordinary individuals, so they were clearly third-tier extraordinary individuals.
If a first-tier transcendent being with awakened abilities is a prominent figure in a city, and a second-tier transcendent being is the face of a city, then a third-tier transcendent being is the pillar of a province.
He was truly flattered that more than a dozen third-tier superhumans had come to his small hotel.
“We booked a private room, number xxx,” Buyer said with a smile.
The lobby manager, sweating profusely, bowed deeply: "Oh, yes, yes, we did make an order two days ago. We ordered 30 portions of every dish on the menu. My boss initially thought it was a prank. We are very sorry for the inconvenience caused. Please forgive us."
If he's a third-tier superhuman, then there's no problem. Even a first-tier superhuman eats three times as much as an ordinary person, so it's normal for a third-tier superhuman to eat more than ten times as much.
"Huh, we weren't kicked out this time!" Maido said in surprise. "They kicked us out last time and the time before that, and it makes me angry just thinking about it." She pouted, clearly indignant.
Bai Yuekui crossed his arms and said, "With everyone eating so much, it's normal to get kicked out of a buffet."
"Would you like to have a meal now or perhaps some tea? We have exceptional teas that are not available on the market," the lobby manager said hastily, taking a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the sweat from his face.
This extraordinary young woman, who is about the same age as his daughter, harbors a great deal of resentment.
Since the country popularized the extraordinary, many buffet restaurants have closed down in a short period of time, simply because the awakened ones can eat too much.
Furthermore, the environment of Xia Kingdom has also begun to become extraordinary, and a small number of plants have begun to possess extraordinary attributes, especially those plants with particularly long growth cycles, such as tea.
Staple foods like rice and vegetables cannot acquire extraordinary properties because their growth cycle is too short.
Very few plants that have acquired extraordinary attributes are edible; currently, the edible extraordinary plants are mainly tea leaves and fruit trees.
Moreover, the quantity is extremely limited. Each type of tea and plant has different extraordinary properties and is basically not available on the market. They are all specially supplied to extraordinary individuals.
The hotel was able to obtain these "extraordinary supplies" because the hotel owner himself is an awakened superhuman and actively participates in "city bounty missions".
'Urban Bounty Missions' are specifically designed for extraordinary individuals to hunt down monsters in the city in order to maintain basic security in the city.
The 'Superhuman Management Center' will reward civilian superhumans with generous amounts of money and honor points based on the number of missions they complete. Honor points can be exchanged with the nation for various superhuman resources and martial arts training methods. With enough points, one can even travel to the 'Miracle Forest' in Chengdu to learn their own unique skills.
Because the bounty was so high, many superhumans became 'monster hunters', specializing in taking on city quests to hunt monsters, and even forming many hunter teams.
Many of the hotel's extraordinary resources were purchased from hunter teams.
Hotels with exceptional dishes and teas are now in high demand; without these, a hotel is considered low-class.
"Are there still extraordinary tea leaves? I've only been in the Sahara Desert for two months and Xia Kingdom has already changed like this? The changes are too fast." Maiduo scratched her head in surprise.
The lobby manager smiled and said, "Since the country opened up to the extraordinary, things have changed rapidly. Now is the beginning of a new era."
It seems that these high-level superhumans have just returned from abroad, after all, some of them have appearances different from those in Xia Country.
Upon hearing this, Ishtar proudly put her hands on her hips and said, "Tea? What is there that I, this young lady, haven't tasted? Then bring us a few cups of it all."
"Then please, esteemed guests, proceed to the tea area and scan the QR code to order tea." The lobby manager bowed slightly as he led the way. The fact that more than a dozen third-tier extraordinary individuals had dined at his restaurant was enough to make it the most famous restaurant in the city.
The tea-drinking area is not just for drinking tea; it also serves as a social space, providing a place for the extraordinary individuals who come here to interact with each other.
The tea-drinking area is quite large and is an open area, not individual booths.
There are already more than twenty extraordinary individuals here, enjoying tea and exchanging ideas. Among them are high school students, security guards, office workers in black suits, teachers, and doctors.
After the Xia Kingdom popularized the extraordinary, the entire social structure changed, and the whole society was forced to work a six-hour workday.
It's not that capitalists are kind; it's that they can't afford to be unkind.
Whether you earn respect now depends mainly on whether you are an extraordinary person and at what stage of extraordinary person you are.
Only those who awaken their abilities are considered extraordinary; even the 'Source Turbulence' is merely an 'Awakener'.
No matter how much wealth or power you once had, in this extraordinary era, if you fail to awaken to the fact that your wealth and power are like bubbles that burst at the slightest touch.
The weapon of criticism can never compare to the criticism of weapons.
Los Angeles: "Every businessman who makes money has a unique understanding of the market and is good at seizing every opportunity."
As he spoke, he sat down on the circular sofa. It was a large circular sofa with a coffee table in the center, capable of seating more than a dozen people, a design that facilitates social interaction.
Seeing this, Ai Lei looked at the seat next to Luo Sheng, her cheeks slightly flushed. Should she sit on the right or the left? Would it be inconvenient for Luo Sheng to drink tea if she sat on the right? But if she sat on the left, what if he wanted to hug her... Pfft! Ai Lei's cheeks turned red.
"Hey!" Just as Aileen came to her senses, she realized that Buyer had already sat on the right side of Los Santos. So she could only go to the left. Just as she thought this, Tiamat brushed past her and took over the left seat.
"Wait..." Ai Lei hurriedly reached out her hand, then listlessly lowered her head and sat down opposite Luo Sheng. Ai Lei, you're such an idiot!
"Oh~" Bai Yuekui sat down next to Ai Lei, tapping his leg with a gossipy glint in his eyes.
She had noticed it long ago: aside from Mydo, all the goddesses present liked Los Saint to varying degrees, but so far there hadn't been any jealousy or rivalry. Tsk~
"Look, look! There are even drinks made with slime! Can you eat slime?" Maido exclaimed in surprise as she scanned the QR code to order her food and looked at the drinks on the menu.
“Slimes are, in the end, just low-level organisms formed from condensed elements. With proper preparation, slime condensate can be consumed by humans,” Buyer said gently, ordering a cup of tea.
"Now, the environment in East Asia is being altered by elemental energy. Harmless elemental creatures like slimes and crystal butterflies are born in places where elemental energy is abundant."
"Oh, I see. I don't really understand." Maiduo scratched her head.
"It's just something edible, that's all. If Devouring Beasts were edible, I think humans would find a way to cook them too," Artoria said seriously. Back in ancient Britain, she had eaten the flesh of magical beasts, since she would eat anything edible when she was hungry.
Quetzal stretched comfortably and said, "Speaking of food, I'm reminded of corn and potatoes. These were gifts I gave to the Maya. I never imagined they would spread all over the world in this day and age."
“That’s true in Type-Moon, but…” Los Saint stroked his chin and didn’t continue. In American mythology, Kukulkan gave them corn, potatoes, and obsidian.
Even if the corn and potatoes in this world were cultivated by the Native Americans over generations, now that Quetzal has arrived in the Americas, even if you tell the Native Americans that corn and potatoes were actually cultivated by their ancestors, they will not believe you. Instead, they will angrily question, "Are you trying to blaspheme Kukulkan?"
"Distinguished guests, thank you for waiting." The lobby manager pushed a food cart over and placed the drinks ordered by everyone on the table: "Please enjoy your meal."
"Wow! This slime drink is so delicious!" Myodo's eyes lit up after just one sip. "It's so much better than a buffet!"
Bai Yuekui took out a pair of glasses and put them on his nose. While gently stirring the black tea with a spoon, he took out his tablet computer to read a book: "Drinks with extraordinary attributes will give extraordinary people a sense of sensation beyond taste, touch, and smell. The more layers of sensation, the better it tastes."
Maido looked at Luo Sheng with a puzzled expression: "Why didn't Brother Luo bring me here before? Was it because it was too expensive?"
Luo Sheng looked at Bai Yuekui: "Yuekui, take Maiduo to get her brain checked when you get back. I feel like Maiduo's brain was damaged during the fight."
"This child's thought process is indeed a bit peculiar at times." Bai Yuekui, with the helplessness of an old mother who had failed to raise her child well, patted Maiduo's head.
