spooky invasion

Chapter 369 Intention
The dinner was surprisingly sumptuous. Although it could be seen that the ingredients were all locally sourced from the hotel restaurant, the cooking obviously took a lot of effort, and it was by no means rushed.

If you want to say how luxurious and exquisite this table is, it doesn't count, at least it doesn't match this high-end level.

But in the final analysis, this is not the sunny era, the hotel has no chef, no kitchen assistant, no service staff, everything is obviously done by Brother Zhi and the others themselves, which seems very grand.

"Brother Jiang, please, please take a seat." Brother Zhi saw that Jiang Yue and others' reactions were a little surprised, and greeted with a smile, "Don't be restrained, keep it in normal times, who would value such a meal. Can you Come on, that's to give Brother Zhi my face."

Brother Zhi has an innate social air about him, but he is not overbearing or too slippery to be disliked by others.

This kind of just-right enthusiasm is very conducive to breaking the deadlock in such an occasion where each other is somewhat wary.

Brother Zhi also noticed that the status of this group was not low, but basically Jiang Yue had the final say on their actions.

He had some friendship with Jiang Yue before, so this enthusiasm will not appear too abrupt.

After Jiang Yue took his seat, the others found places around Jiang Yue and sat down.

After all of them were seated, only a few of them from Zhige's side took their seats with a smile.

There are also two bottles of wine specially prepared on the table, one white and one red.

"Drink something white or red?"

Brother Zhi asked Jiang Yue and the others.

On Jiang Yue's side, none of the others expressed their opinion in a hurry.After all, they are not familiar with each other, and the psychological defense line has not been removed. Who knows if there is any explanation for this meal?
Jiang Yue said with a smile: "Brother Zhi, we are no longer outsiders. But other people must be muttering in their hearts, wondering what to say about this meal? Why don't you say a few words first, I think everyone will be very hard-pressed .”

A group of people who have no connection with each other gather together in a group, especially in this sensitive and weird time, it is normal to be a little psychologically defensive.

"Brother is a real person. Let me just put it this way. Two days ago, more than 80 of us came to participate in the assessment. Now there are still people left. Except for our table, how many people are left?"

"I estimate that there are at most twenty or so. Is it fate that we can sit together?"

"Let's not talk about fate for this meal, is it a celebration for the rest of our lives?"

"Brother Xiaojiang, maybe we were all wrong from the first day. If the two camps hadn't been separated on the first night, there had been no internal strife, and everyone had more trust in each other and more unity, would the first night have been better? How many fewer people died?"

Jiang Yue nodded with a smile. From a certain level, Brother Zhi's words made sense.

But Du Yifeng didn't agree with it, and sneered: "Unity and trust is easy to say, but it really needs to be implemented. Everyone has their own selfish intentions, and most of the time it is simply unrealistic. Everyone is laughing and laughing at the dinner table. Of course, we can unite sincerely, but it's really here." At critical moments, each has selfishness and interests, how do we talk about unity? How do we coordinate interests? Brother Zhi should know that among us, tasks overlap."

Brother Zhi also had an impression of Du Yifeng, after all, Du Yifeng was also the one who proposed generating electricity on the first night.

Of course, Brother Zhi couldn't have imagined what Du Yifeng said.

"Indeed, when everyone first came here on the first day, they were very high-spirited. No one obeyed the other. I believe that you should have a deeper understanding in your hearts, right? Although there is a certain degree of competition among the examiners, most of the examiners have no irreconcilable conflicts of interest. Under this premise, as long as everyone is calm, you will Let go of differences, dig out your heart, and it is entirely possible to cooperate."

Du Yifeng still shook his head disapprovingly.

It wasn't that he was having trouble with Brother Zhi, but deep down in his heart, he also felt that what Brother Zhi said was not unreasonable.

But he changed his mind and thought of a deeper layer.

Brother Zhi and his group set up such a sumptuous table, and they basically showed their courtesy for nothing. If they said they didn't ask for anything, Du Yifeng wouldn't believe it even if he was killed.

No matter what requests Brother Zhi and the others had, Du Yifeng didn't want to get involved.He also didn't want Jiang Yue to get involved.

His personal mission has been completed, so there is really no way to bite the bullet and accompany Jiang Yue and the others.He didn't want to make any more troubles and get involved in any new troubles.

Du Yifeng's ugly words are the first thing to say.

When the time comes, Brother Zhi and the others really make any excessive demands, and he can refuse them without psychological pressure.

Xu Chunru said with a smile: "Brother Zhi, whether to cooperate or not, let's talk about it later, let's cooperate first to wipe out this table of food, maybe the trust between the two parties will be deepened."

"Haha, Ms. Xu is more straightforward. These two bottles are good wine. It would be a waste not to destroy them. Brother Xiaojiang, let's start? Let's bring the atmosphere up?"

When it comes to drinking, Jiang Yue was able to fill a box with Han Jingjing and the others in the tavern, so there are so many people present with two bottles of wine, it is not a big deal.

Alcohol is the best lubricant at the dinner table, no matter how blunt the relationship is, it won't matter after a few glasses of wine.

Sure enough, the initial restraint was stimulated by alcohol, and the atmosphere soon opened up.

In this way, two bottles of wine are obviously not enough.

Brother Zhi obviously came prepared, that Brother Hao conjured two more bottles of white wine from under the table like a magic trick.

It can be seen that this is what they have prepared for a long time.

It just didn't come up in one breath.

If six or seven bottles of wine are displayed at the beginning, this posture will definitely scare people.

First put two bottles to enliven the atmosphere, so that people will not be overly wary.

After a drink, neither Brother Zhi nor Brother Hao mentioned what the name of the meal was, and Jiang Yue and the others were smart enough not to ask.

After the wine table came down, Brother Zhi proposed to go to the third floor for karaoke.

Not to mention, this event is really long gone.However, considering that it was getting late and everyone needed to rest, they politely declined.

Brother Zhi suggested that everyone sit in a nearby coffee shop and drink some coffee and tea to soothe the hangover.

In fact, this little drink is not much different from drinking a drink to the awakened ones.

How can there be any hangover talk?
Unable to withstand Brother Zhi's warm invitation, Jiang Yue and the others agreed to sit down for a while.

Even though the others had some thoughts in their hearts, they were reluctant to go, and they were unwilling to go back to the suite alone.After all, placing orders at this time is not a good thing.

The layout of the cafe is very warm and the decoration is very emotional.

It's a pity that it has been short of popularity for a long time, and it seems a little deserted.

Because of the large number of people, they did not choose to enter the private box, but took their seats in the lobby.

In fact, everyone knew that if Brother Zhi was so enthusiastic, he must have something to say.

Don't talk about things at the wine table, but at the coffee shop, this matter must be put on the table.

After making some drinks, Brother Zhi asked first, "Brother, how have you been doing these two days? Are you done with the mission?"

Jiang Yue said truthfully: "It can only be said that it is okay, some people have completed it, and some people have not yet found it."

Brother Zhi seemed to have expected it, and sighed: "Our situation is similar. If it is convenient, maybe we can exchange ideas? Share our success stories with each other?"

Jiang Yue smiled wryly and said, "I'm fine, but my mission is in Immortal Valley, and I plan to go there tomorrow. If I can come back successfully, I will definitely share all the information I need by then with Brother Zhi for free."

This is a heartfelt remark, one that makes no fault of it.

But it happened to be another bad word.

"Is it the Immortal Valley? Ah Hao, didn't you come back from the Immortal Valley?" Brother Zhi glanced at Brother Hao who was behind him.

Ah Hao, who was wearing glasses, nodded: "The Immortal Valley was greatly affected by the earthquake. Many mountain roads have fallen rocks, and several original tourist passages have been blocked. Moreover, there are monsters in the Immortal Valley, which are full of malice towards humans. I saw with my own eyes an examiner being devoured by a monster..."

"Swallow?" Jiang Yue frowned.

"That's right, it's devouring. The monster is at least ten meters high. It's lying in ambush on the side of the mountain road. It's hard to see with the naked eye. It's completely integrated into the environment, and it's extremely confusing."

Then, Ahao described the appearance of the monster.

However, he was relatively far away at that time, and his observations were not detailed enough, so the description was relatively abstract.

According to his description, the speed of this monster is not very fast, but it is extremely powerful, and its palm can forcibly tear out stones from the mountain wall. It is simply a walking excavator.

"This monster is blocking the passage into the mountain. If you want to hike to the top of the mountain, it is a must. Of course, there is another option, which is to take the cable car. However, the cable car is currently not powered on, and the facilities are also damaged. Disaster."

With that said, the cable car is not an option at all.

Then the remaining channel is the only way to go.

Jiang Yue suddenly asked: "Brother Zhi, is your mission area also in Immortal Valley?"

"No, mine is in Diddy World."

"No way?" Du Yifeng and others were extremely surprised.

Brother Zhi was also quite surprised by their reaction: "Could it be that you are too?"

Jiang Yue asked curiously, "Brother Zhi, have you been to Didi Paradise?"

"I've been there, but it's a bit tricky." Brother Zhi sighed, "Have you ever been to Didi Paradise?"

Jiang Yue didn't hide anything, nodded and said, "I've been there, but that place is very evil."

Brother Zhi agreed deeply: "Yeah, that big house of horrors, I almost didn't get scared. I really don't know how these missions are set up, and how they let us enter such a ghostly place."

House of horrors?
Jiang Yue and the others were startled. Their mission in Didi Paradise has nothing to do with this.

"Aren't you the mission of the house of horrors?"

"It's really not. We're in the children's amusement park area. Did Brother Zhi pass by there?"

"The House of Horror and the Children's Amusement Park happen to be in two directions. I'm going through the west gate."

"Well, I can only say, Brother Zhi, you are very lucky. You are lucky to be able to come out of Didi Paradise alive."

"What do you mean?"

Brother Zhi and the others were stunned. Although Ximen was scary, it wasn't as scary as Jiang Yue described, right?

Jiang Yue briefly described the situation of Time Lost Realm.

He didn't say how to escape from the Time Lost Realm. This is key information, and he didn't want to casually leak it to these guys.

Sure enough, Brother Zhi and the others all changed their complexions after hearing this.

Is there such a weird place?
Time flow thousands of times faster?To see a person from childhood to old age, from birth to death in a short period of time?

Although this is not a ghost, it is also scary enough.

The key is the sense of despair. Once you fall into it, you can watch yourself grow old and your life disappear at a speed of thousands of times.

If the flow rate is [-] times, one breath for one second is equivalent to two or three hours.

Who can bear this?
If you stay in it for an hour, it means that four or five years have passed.

If you stay for more than one day, your life will become a cloud for a hundred years?
Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.

Zhi Ge said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, I didn't go through the southeast gate before."

Brother Hao suddenly said, "Brother Xiaojiang, how did you get out of such a terrifying place?"

Du Yifeng frowned and said: "Don't worry about how to get out, this kind of ghost place, just don't get close."

Brother Zhi smiled and said: "That's why I suggested that everyone get together tonight, to share experiences, the point is to share! We definitely won't take the initiative to approach such a place, but we can't accidentally enter by mistake. Or Didi Do other areas of the park also have this Time Delusion Realm?"

"Ah Hao, to show your sincerity, please tell me the details of the Immortal Valley first, where is the monster, and what are its weaknesses, can you tell Brother Xiaojiang and the others?"

"no problem."

"By the way, do you have a mission area for the sea of ​​flowers? You have to pay attention to this place too. The flowers and trees in the sea of ​​flowers will move, entangle people, and release all kinds of charming pollen..."

Brother Zhi and the others were really eager to share information and contributed a lot of information on their own initiative.

This made Jiang Yue and the others a little embarrassed to hide it, so they had to share some important information with them.

The final result can be described as happy.

At least Brother Zhi and the others achieved their goal of organizing this dinner.

After the exchange was almost over, Jiang Yue and others bid farewell.Brother Zhi and Ahao looked at each other, as if there were still unfinished topics.

In the end, Brother Zhi spoke first.

"Brother, I would like to ask, when are you planning to go to Immortal Valley?"

"Tomorrow." There was nothing to hide.

Jiang Yue's plan is to go to Immortal Valley tomorrow, try to complete the task that day, and then return directly, the sooner the better.

The rhythm of the past few days is basically one task area per day. Although there are many twists and turns, it is finally completed smoothly.

"Tomorrow? Can you... postpone it for two days?" Brother Zhi asked in a discussing tone.

"why?"

"I'm thinking, when the time comes, we can be together, and the strength is strong if we have more people. If we cooperate sincerely, maybe we can find a way to kill that monster?"

Brother Zhi expressed his intention.

"Brother Zhi, isn't your mission area in the House of Horrors?"

"Yes, so these two days I have to complete the mission of the House of Horror first, and then go to the Immortal Valley. Ah Hao and I have made a plan. If we go our own way, neither of us can handle it. It's better to work together."

Jiang Yue smiled, he felt that Brother Zhi's reason was a little unreasonable.

Different mission areas have different levels of danger, and it is fundamentally unfair to join forces to engage in this cooperation.

If there are such dangerous monsters in Immortal Valley, why does Brother Zhi have to do it with Brother Hao?Take your life as a bet?
Just to complete the task?This motivation is obviously not enough.
