After a close conversation with Eiffel.
Gu Xinghe sipped the black tea that Eiffel had brought in, watching her leave the room with a smile.
After he was left alone in the room, Gu Xinghe placed the red jade spider he was holding on the desk in front of him.
After a "nutritious meal" in the town of Wheat Field, the red jade spider was visibly "plumper".
This roundness clearly does not refer to its size.
Perhaps it was because she wanted to be able to climb onto Gu Xinghe's shoulder at any time, or perhaps she wanted to continue being carried out of the house by him in his pocket.
The size of the Red Jade Spider has not changed much; it is still only slightly larger than the palm of a hand.
However, its smoothness is reflected in the feel of its touch, as well as its luster and color.
From the perspective of jade, the red spider does feel much warmer to the touch, and its color has become even more beautiful.
"There's such a 'plump' little spider here, why don't I take it..."
So, Gu Xinghe touched the warm, jade-like red spider and "praised" it.
However, this is true both from the perspective of the Red Jade Spider and from the perspective of other normal people.
Gu Xinghe's words implied that—
My dear child, I've raised you to this age, it's time for you to give me something in return.
Upon hearing this, the Crimson Jade Spider shifted its body slightly in confusion.
It's obvious that its body shape is being deliberately controlled, and it doesn't know what part of it meets the "ready for slaughter" standard.
But at that moment, the red jade spider saw the insect eggs that Gu Xinghe had handed to it.
However, looking at the delicious food right in front of it, the Red Jade Spider dared not move or eat at all.
They seemed to be frightened by Gu Xinghe's words.
Seeing this, Gu Xinghe was at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
He simply felt that, given the swarm's ability to multiply into countless forms like an army, it was a problem.
Centipede spiders have clearly demonstrated similar abilities in the past.
Now that the Red Jade Spider has inherited a significant portion of the other party's assets, it would be quite appropriate for it to devour these insect eggs.
But looking at the red jade spider, which had buried itself entirely in its eight segments and seemed completely unmoved by the delicious food in front of it...
Gu Xinghe could only offer words of comfort in his mind.
After confirming that he seemed to be out of danger.
The red jade spider, which was very easy to appease, quickly and happily swallowed the four eggs that Gu Xinghe handed over.
Not long after, Gu Xinghe saw the Red Jade Spider, having eaten its fill once more, spin its silk and wrap itself into a cocoon.
According to Gu Xinghe's perception, the red jade spider, wrapped in spider silk, was in a deep sleep.
It's like some kind of evolution that takes time.
Gu Xinghe was also quite looking forward to the growth of the Red Jade Spider.
After placing the white spider cocoon...
Wanting to take a break, Gu Xinghe decided to first, as the "evil landlord," thoroughly inspect his land—
Having just left his room, Eiffel had apparently taken advantage of the time he was feeding the spiders to arrange the players' tasks.
Besides them, there were clearly many servants busy at work in the manor.
The preparations for the banquet were largely the same as when he participated in the instance.
In that case, although he was also assigned the job of a butler at the time.
But overall, compared to his current actions, it seems that nothing has changed.
After going down to the first floor, Gu Xinghe saw the banquet setup and preparations up close.
Among the eight players who arrived at Rose Manor, some were setting up the scene.
Some players were also being trained to work as banquet waiters.
Eiffel, as the head maid, was in charge of arranging various tasks.
However, Gu Xinghe noticed that one of the players was clearly being taught etiquette and some skills as a bartender.
Besides the regular drinks provided at banquets, many guests will certainly want to drink drinks that are mixed on the spot.
Therefore, such a position was not overly strange at the banquet.
But Gu Xinghe was only curious about the banquet in his beginner dungeon, and it seemed that such a position did not exist.
Rather, it was after he had his first dinner with Chris and praised the wine he had drunk.
Chris did indeed send quite a few of the same kind of wine to his room at that time.
Even more surprisingly, there was a large wine cabinet in his room.
However, there were no other beverage utensils that seemed to be a suitable match for it.
It seems they don't really want him to develop any interests related to bartending.
Perhaps this is Chris, who has some knowledge of Gu Xinghe's past life.
Want to nip his "special" bartending skills in the bud?
"Actually, I'm quite good at bartending."
Of course, Gu Xinghe, who said this, did not intend to become the unlucky bartender again.
He simply made a spontaneous comment after witnessing the scene.
However, Eiffel, who was walking towards Gu Xinghe, overheard these words halfway through his journey.
"It's probably because your owner doesn't want you to work too hard."
The very considerate maid was explaining to the puzzled Gu Xinghe.
After some thought, Eiffel seemed to have filled in the blanks and then agreed wholeheartedly.
"If you want to drink, you can have someone else mix it. I think the host would think the same way."
But after hearing Eiffel's explanation, Gu Xinghe felt that Chris definitely didn't think that way.
She probably knew, like Theresa back then, that the drinks she made had a very "unique" flavor.
At this moment, Gu Xinghe felt that his bartending skills had been ridiculed once again.
The time for preparing the banquet had quickly passed by.
After that, Gu Xinghe didn't have much contact with the players who came to Rose Manor.
After all, the work area they were assigned to basically did not overlap with the places he usually went.
Moreover, even if a few players caught a glimpse of Gu Xinghe in the distance at Rose Manor.
They would immediately lower their heads and look away, as if they had seen something terrifying.
Therefore, from the perspective of other players' live streams, Gu Xinghe has indeed become the person he once predicted—
Such figures are like behind-the-scenes bosses or big shots who appear as Easter eggs.
