Chapter 037 Mirage (XIV)
The morning of the fourth day of the "Mirage" dungeon.
Dong Jin woke up on time at 7:00 and first ordered two billboards on Mirage Island through the Internet, and then sent a message to Xing Ge to discuss with her the specific time for Feilin and the others to pick up the tickets.
Before he stepped out of the B&B to the hotel kitchen where the farewell banquet was held, Xing Ge called first:
"Dong Jin, you woke up quite early. Are you too nervous about tonight's performance to sleep? I think I'm really crazy. You fooled me into rehearsing with them all night long until now..."
In fact, I slept quite well, and it can even be said that it was the best sleep in the dungeon - after all, Lei Ming, the most dangerous person in the whole trial, rarely slept next to him.
Of course, he couldn't say this in front of Xingge who hadn't slept all night. He didn't want Xingge's complaints to double. So at this moment, he chose to remain silent and let Xingge vent his inner anxiety.
After half an hour, the singer, whose mood had returned to normal, finally mentioned the real purpose of the call:
"You should still be in the B&B now, right? Then don't rush out. I asked someone to send something to you, and it should arrive soon. By the way, did I tell you that I made some changes to the opening song of this opera? You will be surprised when you see it tonight."
"Okay, okay, that's it, I have to go to sleep for a while to recuperate my voice. I wonder if the performance tonight will go smoothly...ah! The more I think about it, the more I feel like I'm on a pirate ship! Why did I believe your lies yesterday!!!"
"It will go well, my dear lady, I wish you a good dream." Dong Jin just smiled and gave his blessings after hearing this.
After tonight, whether I succeed or fail, the whole world will know your name.
Although this compensation is insignificant, I hope your kindness will continue to shine.
The "soon" that Xing Ge said on the phone was really fast.
Because less than two minutes after the conversation ended, Dong Jin received a luxurious gift box that she had sent by Tongdao.
In the gift box was a VIP ticket for the first row of the opera house, a set of golden crowns with olive branches, and pure white clothes with several gold ornaments and wide strips of cloth.
Looking at the clothes in the box that were full of the style of ancient Greek gods, Dong Jin recognized at a glance that this was the costume that the priest who prayed to the gods at the end of the original opera should wear.
However, when watching the rehearsal of the original opera, the gold ornaments were all gold-plated, and even this suit was not the current size.
It seems that this is a new dress that Xingge urgently ordered for him. Does she want him to wear this dress to witness the birth of the new opera?
Are singers so ceremonial?
After looking at this carefully crafted dress for a while, Dong Jin thought about today's arrangements.
Although he can't watch the opening of the opera on site, it is no problem to find a time to change into this dress. When the time comes, Xinge will sing her opera, and he will perform his own drama at the same time.
Isn't this a witness in another sense?
After putting the clothes and the accessories into the bag, Dong Jin picked up his backpack and went to the hotel kitchen to make the preparations.
A Manchu-Han banquet usually has 108 dishes.
Today, the time is too short. Even with the help of the hotel's chefs, Dong Jin does not have the time to replicate them one by one.
Pig said that there will be about 50 people in the evening. According to the number of B&Bs in the surrounding area, this may be the total number of monsters existing on the seashore. So Dong Jin simply picked and chose from the dishes according to the number of people, and finally made 52 dishes with his five special dishes.
The whole farewell banquet started at 17:00 and ended at 19:00.
At 16:00 in the afternoon, after the chefs had finished helping him, Dong Jin dismissed them all with the excuse that the recipe was a secret. Because what he was about to do next was something that normal people could not watch.
Whether it is crushing sprouted potatoes, grinding konjac tubers into powder, extracting pufferfish blood, dyeing brightly colored poisonous mushrooms with pigments, or stuffing the highly toxic powder provided by other trial participants into a new seasoning bottle...① The spectators were drooling
as they watched Dong Jin cook, but the more they watched, the more they felt something was wrong. They tried to search for copies of the ingredients he used. At this moment, they finally couldn't help but say:
[My goodness, these things are just ordinary recipes for others, but they have become several ways to kill people in his place, right?]
[I am so naive! I only knew that Brother Jin had no moral principles, but I didn't expect that after he changed his career temporarily and became a chef, he didn't have any professional ethics at all. ］
［Dong Jin: Didn't I say it? I'm very expensive. Want to eat the food I cook? You'll have to pay with your life. ］
［I'm different from you. I knew that Brother Jin had no moral principles, but I didn't expect him to be so immoral. I advise you to stop posting comments here, and go listen to what he said to Feilin on the phone! After this, you will understand one thing, that is, don't mess with Brother Jin! ］
Dong Jin, who was cooking leisurely at the moment, was heard talking to Feilin on the phone:
"Did you get the 'Construction Ahead' sign?"
"Okay, when you go to the theater at 5 o'clock, just put it at the two intersections of the hotel for me."
"Are you talking about the tires? We'll have to wait for the tires. There aren't many monsters entering now. It won't be too late to poke them one by one when they all go in around 4:50."
"As for the thumbtacks I gave you, scatter some of them before you leave. After all, something is better than nothing. Who knows, there might be some whimsical guy who wants to run away on a bicycle?"
"Okay, thank you. Please keep the phones of those trialists for a while, and don't let them have the chance to contact the outside world before 19:00. Finally, I hope you enjoy watching the show tonight."
After saying that, Dong Jin hung up the phone and continued to open the "Eye of Truth" to concentrate on arranging the dishes.
Some of these trialists from this universe came for common interests, while others were lured by him with some clues in the tickets and copies, and were willing to help him do some small things.
Under the premise that their phones were kept by Feilin, he didn't care how much those people guessed from his action of cutting off the monster's retreat. Anyway,
after these multiple toxins were added to the dishes one by one, he had to respect the other party as a warrior if he could finally move to the garage. Even if the trialists did their job half-heartedly, few monsters could really escape.
After preparing all the poisonous things perfectly, Dong Jin picked up his phone at 17:00 and turned on the live broadcast in the dungeon.
As he asked people to serve dishes one after another, this rare scene of food conquering monsters made the number of people in his live broadcast room burst again.
"Wow, how did this milk tea become so mellow?" Maybe it was the addition of konjac tuber powder?
"Isn't this just a simple braised mushroom, why is it so fresh?" Maybe the poisonous mushrooms made you hallucinate.
"The potato cakes that look plain taste so good?" Do you have a special liking for sprouted potatoes?
"Hiss... This is called Maoxuewang, right? It's hot, fragrant, and spicy, and it's really spicy!" Maoxuewang mixed with puffer fish blood is not only spicy, but also deadly.
In the kitchen, Dong Jin, who could vaguely hear the outside world praising him, was preparing the next dish while silently introducing the ingredients of each dish to the monsters outside like an ordinary chef.
With his cheating "eye of truth", he could not only find the best heat and bring out the best flavor, but even at this moment when all kinds of toxins were on the battlefield, he could roughly calculate the specific time when the poison would take effect by adjusting the order of the dishes according to the prompts of his eyes.
However, this operation was a bit life-consuming.
He took up the seasoning bottle filled with highly toxic powder and sprinkled it all into the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall in a few seconds. When the audience asked him about it, he said without blushing, "This is my secret seasoning." Dong Jin personally delivered the bowls of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall to the serving port.
He didn't know whether the monsters outside could become Buddhas after eating this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
But isn't there a saying that people will see the Buddha after death?
Then they can see the Buddha after all.
Because after this dish, no monster will go out alive.
It is now 18:53 in the evening.
When the waiter brought the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and served the dishes one by one, Dong Jin found a room at random and changed into the sacrificial clothes that Xinge gave him.
Pure white loose fabric, pure gold crown in the shape of an olive branch.
The thin gold chain passed behind his ears, and the thin gold tassels on the chain were neither sparse nor dense, vaguely covering the lower half of Dong Jin's face.
Then there were the matching gold necklaces, arm rings, bracelets, belts, leg rings, anklets...even the attached headband was also woven from gold threads. Dong
Jin knew that this suit was luxurious, and after putting it on completely, he found that it was even more luxurious than he thought. At this moment, he couldn't help thinking, how much money was left in the bank card he gave to Xing Ge that made this singer spend so much money to buy him such a suit?
Forget it. Anyway, what he was going to do next was no different from singing an opera.
Dressing a little more gorgeously might make the whole show more exciting.
After Dong Jin changed his clothes, the time had turned to 18:55.
He picked up the mobile phone placed on the table beside him and turned the camera that was originally facing the ceiling back to himself.
Just as the audience in the live broadcast room were praising his outfit and writing all kinds of praise essays, Dong Jin opened the door and walked towards the banquet hall, while making a split screen in front of everyone. So
at this moment, half of the live broadcast room showed Dong Jin's appearance, and the other half showed all the content on his mobile phone screen.
[Before, we asked Dong Jin to use his mobile phone to show us the popularity value redemption table of the "No Heartbeat Challenge", and he said he couldn't do it. Then how did he split the screen so skillfully now? You are not going to say that this is the result of his secret efforts in the past two days when we were not paying attention? ］
The next second, the unfinished praises and doubts from the audience were drowned out by the question marks on the screen.
The mobile phone screen that was split by Dong Jin clearly showed that Dong Jin had logged into an account.
Account name: Magician.
As if the audience's shock was not enough. After logging into this world-famous account, Dong Jin wrote something in his dynamic, then attached a link to his live broadcast room and exited neatly.
Then he switched to another equally popular account called "The Fool" and did the same thing as before.
Then it was "Star".
After completing the nearly repetitive operations on each account, Dong Jin finally switched back to the current account and changed the avatar and name of the current account to the "Lovers" in the tarot card.
Afterwards, he used this account to forward the comments of the previous three and wrote the last sentence.
So at this moment, the latest updates of the four accounts are as follows.
Magician:
Dear, this is just a magic.
(Link: Dong Jin Live Room)
——Posted from 18:57, Mirage Island.
Fool:
Those who believe in me are not fools.
(Link: Dong Jin Live Room)
——Posted from 18:58, Mirage Island.
Star:
A single spark can start a prairie fire.
(Link: Dong Jin Live Room)
——Posted from 18:59, Mirage Island.
Lovers:
Will humans be moved when they see natural disasters?
——Published since 19:00, Mirage Island.
With the last post from the live broadcast account of "lover", Dong Jin himself, the time finally turned to 19:00.
The content on Dong Jin's mobile phone split screen also quietly changed from his mobile phone interface to the scene inside the water opera house.
I don't know when the opening music of the new opera was changed to the song "Symphony of Fate".
Maybe this is the surprise that Xin Ge mentioned in the morning.
So at this moment, in the four consecutive hits of "Destiny" that shocked the world, Dong Jin, who happened to walk to the front of the hotel banquet hall, smiled and said to the audience outside the screen:
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to watch my live broadcast."
"As you can see, I am the 'Magician', the 'Fool', the 'Star', and the 'Lovers' who are like disasters."
