Chapter 1271: "Visit"

July 4, 2021 · 5 min read · 1,040 words

Aboard the Sea God, Lyavar and Candice, members of the White Silver City exploration team, sat on chairs that were not quite suitable for them, warily watching the "dwarfs" coming and going around them.

However, they were all well aware that these should be normal humans, after all, they knew that their own exaggerated height came from potions. But they still felt that the people on this ship were too short, including Mr. Danitz, who claimed to be the messenger. You see, in the , aside from children, residents who had entered the development stage and not yet advanced to Sequence 6 had an average height of over 1.8 meters, and among them, there were many Beyonders who had reached over two meters at Sequence 9.

The slight rocking of the ship made these "half-giants" feel more or less uncomfortable, but their robust physiques helped them quickly overcome this effect. The contrast between the boundless sea outside the window and the solitary vessel made it hard for them to suppress feelings of unease, fear, and tension, as if they were on their first exploration mission, surrounded by monsters lurking in the darkness that could attack them at any moment.

Just then, Danitz entered the room that had been converted from a dining hall, and said with a smile to the tall figures who were sitting stiffly in strange clothes, looking cautious and wary: "Your food is ready. Now, you can enjoy the meal to your heart's content."

"By the way, don't forget the precautions I just told you about. This sea area is very dangerous."

"Don't get up. Just sit down."

Seeing that the young elder who called himself Derrick and a few "half-giants" were about to stand up and speak to him in the most polite manner, Danitz quickly pressed down with both hands to stop this uncivilized behavior.

If I had that height, I would have already started mocking the people around me... Danitz muttered, clapping his hands to signal the crew to bring in the food.

A strong aroma then drifted into the nostrils of Derrick and other White Silver City residents. It was the familiar smell of grilled meat and mushrooms, but with an added indescribable, somewhat strange, slightly pungent odor.

The smell was so tempting that Lyavar, Candice, and others' saliva secreted wildly, and their stomachs were instantly awakened.

"Desi-style grilled meat," Danitz said, pointing to a crew member who had just entered.

That crew member carried a large steel tray filled with pieces of meat that were grilled until the fat oozed out, showing a slight golden color, evenly sprinkled with cumin, basil, and other spices.

"Steak, pan-fried meatfish, white bread, seafood clear soup, light beer..." Danitz introduced them one by one, and finally added with a smile, "You don't need to worry about anything; you can eat to your heart's content. We have a very ample supply of food."

After saying that, he glanced at the "half-giants" who seemed to want to stand up, chuckled, and withdrew from the room.

Candice, with her neat short hair, reluctantly tore her gaze away from the food, swallowed, and said: "Elder Derrick, what should we do now?"

Although Derrick believed that the messenger of Mr. Fool would not harm them, he still gave a very cautious opinion out of habit: "Divide into two groups. One group waits for the next meal, and the other group tries now."

"Alright, Elder Derrick." Candice stood up abruptly and said, "I request to join the try group!"

The list of ten was quickly filled. Candice and Lyavar simultaneously walked to the long table against the wall and, quite tacitly, each took a piece of the most tempting so-called Desi grilled meat.

With that first bite, the full juices, the fragrance embedded in the grain, and the pure meatiness formed a complex and layered experience in their mouths. They only chewed a couple of times before eagerly swallowing the food to take another bite.

This was far more delicious than the meat and mushrooms they had eaten before.

Unconsciously, these ten residents of the City of Silver had eaten until tears filled their eyes, their vision blurring.

On the deck, Danitz looked out at the safe route within the divine war ruins, considering how to settle these followers of Mr. Fool later.

Suddenly, a sailor ran over, panting: "Lord Messenger, they've finished eating and hope to have some more!"

...What kind of people are these? Danitz was taken aback and said: "Prepare another portion for each of them."

Seeing that the sailor was about to turn around, Danitz quickly added: "Starting tomorrow, organize the crew to go fishing!"

... ...

In the Sounia Sea, on an uninhabited island.

Klein had initially adapted to his current state, reined in his spirituality, and planned to "teleport" back to to summon the "Mirror" and ask some questions.

He didn't rush to move the residents of the to the outside world. He intended to wait until Danitz had settled the vanguard of the White Silver City and had enough experience before doing this. After all, the path to leave the "Abandoned Land of the " had been opened. He could use the ability of the "Star Staff" to directly transfer the entire Moon City by responding to prayers.

Of course, if that door closed again, Klein still had a way. He would first transfer the Moon City residents to the King's residence and let them open the door themselves—without the first "Blasphemy Slate" and the "Dark Angel" evil spirit, ordinary Beyonders could push open the door.

As for whether the "" would interfere and obstruct, Klein did not consider it, because that Sequence 0 True God could do so now, but if He didn't want to, Klein couldn't stop Him.

Additionally, Klein believed that the current focus of the "True Creator" was not on this aspect. His most urgent task was to catch and retrieve the first "Blasphemy Slate".

"Strictly speaking, this is a family ethics drama..." Klein complained in his mind, then grasped "" from the air and put this sealed artifact, which had accompanied him for a long time, on his left palm.
