Chapter 204: Humans under the Dark Starry Sky
Keith is a great actor.
It is a very elegant mind flayer, tall and slender, with handsome and charming facial features (for a mind flayer). Even the tentacles on its chin are smoother and slender than other mind flayers. , it has a very unique status in the tribe, second only to the elder brains who control the lower mind flayers.
The so-called foodie is actually a human actor.
It's just that unlike human actors, Keith mainly performs eating, that is, the mind flayer's mukbang actor.
In terms of strength, Keith is not powerful. It is just a barely high-level mind flayer. Even the shadow mind flayers it has cultivated have many stronger than it, but its spiritual power is very special. Keith He has a strong ability to empathize with emotions, which makes him a natural actor.
Food hall.
It is located on Gemini, the sixth satellite of the Garden Planet. It is a huge ring-shaped building, a bit like an ancient Roman arena, and can accommodate a large number of spectators at the same time.
There are floating crystal clusters around, which are the strange objects of the Mind Flayer technology tree [Emotional Resonance Stone].
Generally speaking, the mind flayers who are not wealthy have such a landmark building, which is a food hall that provides eating and broadcasting services to everyone. The physiological structure of mind flayers must be mentioned here. They must eat brains regularly, and this hunger is very strong. But sometimes they can’t get so many brains, so they can only watch mukbang and use emotional resonance stones to Satisfy your craving for brain.
This is the origin of the popularity of eating and broadcasting among the mind flayers for tens of thousands of years.
For this reason, a great gourmet has a very high status!
Although Keith's mind flayer expedition fleet has been corrupted by Suen, its need for brains is not that strong, and it instead pursues something called 'essence'. But a mind flayer is still a mind flayer after all, so it is necessary to watch a 'eating show' once a month to satisfy the brain's cravings.
So sometimes tens of thousands of mind flayers would come to Keith's mukbang show at the same time.
However, around the food court, there are several distinct camps of mind flayers. The first is the camp of Suen believers. They are priests and possess the divine power given by Suen. Although most of them can only They cast three-ring magic, but they are stronger than other mind flayers, and they also wear the emblem of a huge head covered with tentacles on their chest.
The second is the shadow mind flayer camp. It is a kind of mind flayer with jet-black skin that can sneak in the shadows. They are new varieties cultivated by the elder brains under the guidance of Suen. However, due to the breeding plan Not completely finished yet, these monsters can only be temporarily invisible. During the cultivation process, due to some side effects, their psychic energy was weakened, and their psychic energy pool was not as good as that of normal mind flayers, but their psychic blast was still very powerful.
The third one is the constructor of the mind flayer. The Suen mind flayer has very advanced alchemical technology. These mind flayers in the alchemy path are surrounded by various construction robots. They are the main battle force of the Mind Flayer Expedition Fleet. The Suen soldiers in killing form have very high combat effectiveness, and their numbers are very large.
"Please play the role of Gourmet-Keith!"
The gravity of the Garden Planet is only one-half of the material plane. The mind flayers are accustomed to using levitation to fly. As long as With a little psychic power, you can complete your daily walks.
A mind flayer host stood in the center of the performance hall, outputting telepathic communication in a gorgeous accent, passing it to others through the crystal cluster stone, and also resonating his own excitement to the audience present. To describe it in human terms, before the performance, there is an atmosphere to enhance the atmosphere, and by the way, the emotional resonance stone is used to convey its excitement to other people.
Keith walked gracefully and slowly walked towards the dining table.
It can fly, but it looks stupid when flying on stage. It is a famous performer and must have an aura, so it walks like a humanoid creature, and it must walk with an accent. The side face should be facing the audience at a 45-degree angle, allowing the audience to notice the six strong and smooth tentacles on its chin.
If it weren't for some accidents, Keith might even be promoted to become a Soul Eater, a member of the High Mind Flayers.
A burst of thunderous applause sounded.
The mind flayers of Suen will only actively make such sounds when praying to Suen and participating in food performances, rather than communicating through spiritual communication.
"Everyone."
"Today we are going to taste a human with an intelligence of 19 points."
Keith began to introduce today's main course as usual, and to arouse the emotions of the audience. When they heard that the ingredients had 19 points of intelligence, the Suen mind flayers around them became restless, because they had not tasted such high-end products for a long time.
They can't wait.
Keith raised his hand to calm the audience's emotions gracefully, and continued to introduce: "It comes from the twelve skull farms of the eighth moon, and is produced on the planet Terra we see in front of us."
"They are the ninth batch of slaves captured by the expedition fleet in the Dark Age. They have been cultivated to the 52nd generation."
"It is a very excellent breed!"
As a top Playing the role of Gourmet, Keith wants to arouse the emotions of all the audience. He introduced in detail: "Its ancestor is a Northlander, and the dull Northlanders should not have such high wisdom."
“But we captured a Northland Witch, and the food this time is the descendant of the Northland Witch!”
A burst of thunderous applause sounded again.
Keith was very satisfied with the audience's performance. It activated the emotional resonance stones around the performance hall and continued: "The Twelve Skull Farm is a very excellent breeding base. The slaves produced there are of high quality and have a lot of intelligence attributes. High-quality breeds between 15-16 years old, and they no longer know how to resist and are quite docile."
"If you need it, you can contact the staff of the Skull Farm"
This. It's the usual advertising time.
Occasionally, rich owners of mind flayers spend money to buy slaves to taste. The food court alone cannot fully meet their needs, but because they are expensive and scarce, they are not available to ordinary mind flayers. Unless they can invade Holy Terra again and break through the protective barrier of the real kingdom.
Since the construction of the Twelve Realms of Clock Nirvana was completed, interstellar monsters have not invaded Holy Terra for nearly a thousand years.
"Next."
"I would like to ask the administrator of the farm, Dao, to send us today's staple food!"
Zhiga.
A heavy alchemy door opened, and a slightly arrogant upper mind flayer walked in front. Its skin was light purple, a bit like a soul eater, and behind it was a A girl who is around sixteen years old, her skin is a little too pale, her facial features are quite delicate, and her appearance reveals a hint of morbid beauty. Her head is much larger than the average human, which makes her look a bit weird, which ruins the overall beauty. Her pair of blue eyes The beautiful eyes are like bright gems, but the eyes are empty like a doll with a broken heart.
There is no hair on the girl's head, and her smooth skin is like oriental porcelain. Such a smooth scalp makes it easier for the mind flayer to eat, and it looks quite beautiful.
"Hmm!"
"It's really a masterpiece!" The mind flayers all around exclaimed impatiently.
Keith is also very satisfied with the ingredients in front of him. This is the ultimate delicacy that even he rarely tastes. He is a genius among humans, a true genius, and even a genius among geniuses.
The girl's expression was very calm.
She seems to have a cognitive disorder and is indifferent to everything in the outside world. In other words, she has already known her fate. She has profound knowledge and has mastered a lot of knowledge that the mind flayer allowed her to learn, but she does not have any magic power, not even a little bit of extraordinary ability. She is wearing a human dress as white as snow, delicate and delicate. The skin on the arms is paler than the cloth, and you can even see a few blood vessels, as if you have albinism.
The mind flayers use various means to reproduce human subspecies. Only truly high-quality humans can cultivate such geniuses. The rest have been reduced to a kind of sick creature called "giant brain man".
But this is Keith's food hall, and giant brain people cannot be on the stage. Those are food only eaten by low-class foodies.
Decent!
Style!
Elegance!
Keith is well-known among the mind flayers. Every meal he eats is of the highest quality. He is a genius among humans and humanoids. Only in this way can he maintain his superiority. If there are no excellent ingredients, he will be willing to eat for half a year. Put on a food court show. ——Emotional resonance stone.
Under the surging psychic power, Keith's slightly excited emotions also resonated with the tens of thousands of mind flayer spectators present.
With such top-quality ingredients, even it has to be careful.
It is said that the top product of the 'Twelve Skull Farm' is an extreme genius with 20 points of intelligence. It is a creation multiplied by the blood of sin. Even a gourmet like it is not qualified to taste it. They are often secretly sent to the mind palace of the big brain. This corrupted dark ritual will create many defective products. Those failed products are giant brains, an extremely ugly, deformed and stupid sub-human monster.
The human subspecies with 18-19 points of intelligence is already the limit that ordinary mind flayers can contact.
"Lie down." Keith ordered.
Under the fluctuation of spiritual energy, the girl lay expressionlessly on the white marble table. Her swaying snow-white dress seemed like a bouquet of spreading lilies, so beautiful that it was heartbreaking and slender. And the smooth calves, under the crystal light of the performance hall, are as gorgeous as porcelain gems. The girl's chest rises and falls slightly, which means that her mood is not as calm as it seems on the surface. In those frost-like dim eyes, There was a faint glimmer of despair and darkness.
They are the lost descendants of humanity.
Leaving the protection of the unknown people, they perished in the distant garden planet. Children without the protection of the giants will never be able to grow up. Although they can see the stars in the distance when they look up, But I can never go home.
Even if they are a group of geniuses, they are just a delicacy on the long table.
No one here cares about the beauty of the girl, because she is just a piece of food. In the fragmented beauty, countless mind flayers stare at her brain with pairs of hungry and greedy eyes. How terrible is that? Excellent product, with a snow-white and smooth scalp, a perfectly contoured skull, and those jewel-like eyes. The moment you open the skull, you can imagine how delicious the brain inside will be!
The gradually dimming sapphire eyes are completely despairing bit by bit, and she is dying in endless pain bit by bit. She will feel that her brain is being sucked, and she will feel that death is gradually coming. Extreme emotions will completely explode at the last moment of death. That is the supreme delicacy of the mind flayers, the most extreme emotional feast they can taste!
Keith's hands were shaking slightly.
Its tough tentacles climb along the girl's forehead. It is choosing the best angle and will not let the girl die during the eating process. Only the most perfect 'eating alive' can Only if it lives up to its reputation as a "big food show" can it bring the most extreme emotional resonance to nearby audiences.
It is an elegant artist, as it eats with the precision of a mind flayer's art.
Soon.
Keith has chosen the perfect angle. Here, he can absorb two-thirds of the girl's brain and still keep her alive. With a little psychic spell, her life can be sustained until Keith eats it. Just the last drop of brain matter in her brain.
On the long white table, the girl slowly closed her eyes. Her eyes, like bright sapphires, took one last look in the direction of Holy Terra.
Perhaps the humans there have long forgotten these lost descendants...
Tick! Tick!
While the girl was quietly waiting for the Mind Flayer to pry open her skull with its tentacles, she suddenly heard a ticking sound like a clock.
The world stopped at this moment.
Like all the mind flayers, she should be completely still in time, but her intelligence is too high. Although her excessive intelligence makes her understanding of the world very vague, as if she is separated from the world. There was a layer of gray mist, but this talent also allowed her to sense the changes in time.
She was still.
Her body, heartbeat, and breathing all stopped, but her consciousness was gone.
This moment!
She saw a black giant as towering as a mountain, who might be the successor of the legendary nameless giants.
Under the endless starry sky.
Countless mysterious silver rune imprints are like bright nebulae. The extremely gorgeous nebula rotates at high speed, and is covered with huge translucent purple bubbles in the outer layer. Under the reflection of the starry sky like an illusion , she saw the shadow of a dark giant, whose eyes as deep as the abyss stared at her, with a trace of pity in his eyes.
A huge ghostly hand gently picked her up, as if holding a beloved object. She was held in the palm of his hand and lifted to the sky!
"Child!"
"I will take you home!..." the black giant whispered.
In an instant.
The girl broke free from the still time. She burst into tears, crying silently and choking.
At this moment, she finally knew that she had not been completely forgotten.
They are no longer the blood descendants of humans lost under the stars.
The shadow of the black giant gently wiped away the crystal tears from the corners of her eyes. He whispered softly: "Don't cry, child."
"I'll give you a beautiful Fireworks! ..."
——Eternal Blazing Sun [Spell Level Up] [Eleventh Ring Legendary Spell]! ! !
A bunch of brilliant fireworks bloomed under the starry sky.
As if announcing the return of mankind to the starry sky, the blazing light like the sun shines on the entire garden planet, allowing countless human blood descendants imprisoned in the Skull Farm to see the line at the end of the horizon. Light, it is so warm and hot that it can melt all darkness!
"Sealed Artifact No. 1!"
"Let the Scourge Envoys enter the lunar outpost and stand by!"
"Recall the Farstriders Chapter, recall the Pioneer Chapter , recall the Order of Martyrs, assemble the Astra Militarum, assemble all the orders of Holy Terra..."
"The demiplane of the Heart of Machinery has entered the first level of combat readiness!"
"The Golem Construct Legion is preparing for cross-dimensional projection!"
"Contact Abyss City."
< br>"Send a church envoy to seek help from the seven Witch King cities. I can give up all the mineral resources in the black abyss."
"Inform Ms. Hecate."
"Let Quin-To go to the Eternal Forest. I need the help of the sages and archdruids in the forest!"
"Send Aoun from Abyss City to Bai Yujing to get the design of the dragon-headed battleship that I have sealed away. Bring it over, I need the support of the Cathayans' fleet!"
"Let Yvonne Tanner go to the Tower of Knowledge and tell them that I have found the blood descendant of the Northland Witch."
< br>………………
This moment.
Xiao En activated all his contacts and resources, and he wanted to face the mastermind of Su En's mind flayer fleet!
Human beings have been forgotten by this starry sky for too long.
………………
(Note 1: At the Skull Farm, cultivated humans and humanoids will be tested and measured to assess their total brain capacity. If he ranks Those in the top 5% have the right to reproduce, which is also used to motivate humanoids to learn more knowledge. Those creatures that are not ranked in the top will be sold to other mind flayers for food, and the ranking is determined. The lowest 5% will be slaughtered directly.
Note 2: This captivity method ensures that only the smartest humanoids can continue to survive. The humanoids here have higher perception and intelligence than ordinary people. 1d4 points, up to the maximum value of 20. But unfortunately, they have not been able to leave the pasture, because the spirit of resistance has been eliminated in them for a long time during the artificial breeding process.
Note 3: The mind flayers control the promotion path, and human extraordinary beings will be killed and eaten directly when discovered. What they want to cultivate is ordinary people with intelligence above 18 points. Eating highly intelligent humanoid creatures can speed up the advancement and evolution of mind flayers. Top geniuses with 20 points of intelligence will be sent to the spiritual spire of the big master brain. )
