288. Dinner at the Court

"So generous, for things that are not my own."

Alesha's voice suddenly rang in Zhou Chu's mind. After hearing Alesha's words, Zhou Chu glanced at Alesha. Sure enough, he saw this little girl, and slightly raised a disdainful angle from the corner of her mouth.

"It's okay, in this case, I have to express it, and for the long time of vampires, these are really nothing."

Zhou Chu also answered in his heart, and then smiled and rejected Durcula and Lilith's kindness.

"Thank you, it's just that I'm not from this world. These things are useless to me, but even in my world, I don't like collecting personality."

Dracula smiled and didn't say anything.

Half an hour later, I finally arrived at the Hall of Nightingale. This hall, like its name, was carved with a pure gold, lifelike nightingale above the arch of the hall.

After Zhou Chu followed Durcula in, he found a huge palace bed in the center of the Nightingale Hall. The purple curtain poured down from the towering dome, covering the entire palace bed like moonlight. Only behind the curtain was a table and a pretty figure.

On both sides of the palace bed, there were five maids who were more beautiful than ordinary vampires. Next to the maids, there were several vampires with different costumes. Behind these vampires, in the vast darkness of the Nightingale Hall, Zhou Chu could still feel that there were a large number of vampires hidden there.

In other words, there are at least dozens of vampires hidden in this hall.

Although he knew that the other party could not do anything to him, Zhou Chu still frowned slightly. After entering the hall, Lilith, who had been paying attention to Zhou Chu's expression, immediately knew that this guy probably knew that there were other vampire guards and assassins in the hall, so he was unhappy.

So she immediately smiled, walked forward, held Zhou Chu's arm, and bit his ear intimately.

"This is not for you, but. How can you say that when facing visitors from another world, you can't let the vampire queen face you, a dangerous visitor alone. They only know that you may be a demon, but they don't know that you have Cain's heart."

Zhou Chu was stunned for a moment, then realized that Lilith probably misunderstood his meaning. He frowned just now. After feeling the number of people, he judged and calculated in his mind, and found that if the other party wanted to do something, his human form would probably not be able to leave safely and must enter the initial form.

This is what made him frown. For some reason, subconsciously, Zhou Chu still hopes to face all problems in human form.

As for being unhappy? He must have such a feeling and induce unhappy emotions.

So he shook his head. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a cold snorting sound coming from the hall.

"Hmph, Camilla, you shameless woman are going to hook up with a man again."

Zhou Chu raised his head and found that the person who made this sound was a vampire who was a bit old but had no aristocratic style. He looked like a sinister and obscene old man.

"Jean Resel." Lilith continued in Zhou Chu's ear, "Camilla is the master of this body. As for what he said is shameless... Haha, Camilla likes women, and she is still a virgin."

After saying this, Lilith instead pulled Zhou Chu tighter and said to Jean Resel.

"It depends on whether the man is qualified to hook me up. Haha, I don't know which old guy wants to seduce me, and then he becomes angry and spreads rumors everywhere? Really, what does that oriental proverb say? If you can't eat grapes, you say that grapes are sour?"

Hearing this sentence, Resel's face suddenly became gloomy, and then Zhou Chu felt an invisible wave of power brewing and rising on him.

Want to do something? He immediately tensed his nerves. Once he felt the invisible rays of the other party's body, it seemed not strong, but it was extremely feminine. It seemed that the magic fluctuations were emitted, he would immediately fight back. He didn't care whether this was the Palace of Night, anyway, he could escape unstoppable.

But Gao Ming also told him that if he can, it would be the best thing to contact the vampire ruler and win over it. This made him suspicious, but think about it, if this would make the vampire ruler decide not to unite, there might be no problem for such teammates and allies.

So Zhou Chu did not relax. If the opponent attacked, he would definitely choose to fight back, no doubt.

But Resel's fluctuations were not successfully used. When the sword was tense, a slight cough came from the court bed covered by the curtains.

"Resel."

The slight but unquestionable rebuke immediately made the fluctuations in Resel's body disappear invisible. He turned around and bowed respectfully to the back of the curtain.

"Queen."

"If you have a distinguished guest visit, don't act impulsively."

"yes."

Resel answered this way, then glared at Lilith, but did not attack again.

The voice behind the curtain was female, cold, but with some majesty, but Zhou Chu sounded a little bit lacking in energy. He didn't know why he felt this feeling, but he always felt a little strange. As for stopping Resel, it was because this queen had already known Lilith's true identity.

Then the mysterious queen coughed softly and spoke again.

“It’s time to start.”

Can you start? What to start?

Zhou Chu soon knew the answer. First, a male vampire dressed in a servant moved a long table and two round tables. The long table was placed in the center of the hall, and a round table was moved into the curtain, and one was placed in front of Zhou Chu. Then, the high-back chairs with a high backrest with no armrests on both sides were also moved up, placed one by one on both sides of the long table and next to the round table in front of Zhou Chu.

There were maids wearing gorgeous palace maids' uniforms, fishing out of the darkness, and everyone held an exquisite silver plate in their hands, and there were various dishes that looked extremely attractive.

Is this the rhythm of dinner? Isn’t it about talking about things? Zhou Chu looked at the tables, chairs and dishes, and the tableware was placed one by one, and a palace dinner that was about to begin was grandly prepared.

Perhaps vampires like to talk about things at dinner parties and follow the customs. Zhou Chu didn't think too much about it. At the maid's instructions, he sat on the round table in front of him. Lilith and him sat on the same piece, but Durcula returned to the vampire and sat next to the front position on the long table.

After everything was ready, the other vampires also took their seats, and then heard the faint figure behind the curtain and raised their wine glasses.

"Come on, let us welcome guests from afar."

Dracula took the lead in raising the cup. The other vampires looked at Zhou Chu curiously while also raising the cup.

Zhou Chu and Lilith also raised the cup, while Alesha created an illusory cup out of thin air, and raised it up as if it were.

Just like the mellow wine at the entrance, at least the atmosphere at the beginning was relaxed and comfortable. The vampires ate and talked, exchanged recent experiences, the sound behind the curtain, and Dracula, and asked some other things, some about the East, and some were purely for Zhou Chu to play freely. Zhou Chu's answer also amazes these vampires - they feel fresh and curious about the world that is still mainly in the medieval world, and everything in the real world, especially after learning that the medieval history in the real world is extremely similar to them.

"Mr. Cadias." The voice behind the curtain rang, "If, as you said, why would your world develop in the direction of civilization you called technology?"

"Her Majesty, please forgive me for not being able to answer this question, because I am not from that era, but I can share my ideas." Zhou Chu said, and then organized some language before he said slowly.

"Perhaps the development and process of civilization have been determined early in the morning. I mean, despite all kinds of legends, in fact, what I know, the civilization in our world has disappeared from history since some time, magic, magic, magic, and other non-scientific things. Maybe there are secrets I don't know, but even if there are, it should be rare. Human-like intelligent life like vampires, werewolves, etc., no longer appear, and humans themselves have not developed the magical abilities, as well as group abilities or superpowers. When they cannot break through their own limitations, they can only give up pursuing individual transcendence, and choose to enhance the external forces of the entire civilization outside their body, such as technology..."

What Zhou Chu said is the truth and what he analyzed. If, in the long years, even if there is even a large-scale magic or supernatural awakening, then the civilization in reality will definitely not be like this. Without finding a way to study other things without finding a way to go beyond its own limits and internal improvements, and to develop towards scientific and technological civilization, it is a last resort.

"A world like this..." Dracula touched his tough mustache, "It's really wonderful for vampires."

Others also showed a look of approval and approval, but Zhou Chu smiled: "It may not be like this."

"How do you say it?" Dracula looked at Zhou Chu, "Isn't that the case? If, according to Mr. Cadias, there are no people among humans who can use blood power or magic, and they can never surpass their own limits, then even the army of a country cannot compete with vampires. We are not like the legendary fear of silver and crosses. In the absence of holy tools, all we fear is sunshine."
