Chapter 349 The strange and weird butler!
Suddenly, a blinding white light illuminated the entire space, so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it.
At this moment, everyone felt a powerful force wrapping them tightly, and then their bodies were involuntarily drawn into an unknown vortex.
When they opened their eyes again with difficulty, they found themselves in a manor of jaw-dropping luxury.
All I heard was a clear and rhythmic "da da" sound coming from far away.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man with a lifeless face like ashes walking slowly towards them with elegant steps.
He was wearing a tuxedo of exquisite tailoring and luxurious texture. If it weren't for his pale face, this man would be no different from an ordinary human being in appearance.
The middle-aged man walked up to the crowd and stopped, saying in a cold and emotionless voice:
“I am the steward of this manor, and today our distinguished Duke specially invites all the distinguished guests to be our guests.
But please remember, since you are here, you must strictly abide by the rules of the manor, complete your respective tasks conscientiously, and absolutely not make any mistakes.
Now, please come quickly and get your own work badges."
As soon as the words fell, a girl with shoulder-length hair in the crowd immediately stepped forward with a smile on her face, nodding and responding:
"Okay, Master Butler, don't worry, I will do my best to do my job to the best of my ability!"
Seeing the short-haired girl being so considerate, the butler nodded slightly, indicating that he was quite satisfied with her attitude.
However, he immediately turned around, his expression instantly becoming gloomy, and shouted at the others:
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and get your work badges!"
Hearing the steward's roar, the other participants hurried forward as if awakened from a dream, scrambling to get the work badges representing the division of tasks.
During this process, the butler had a gloomy face, and his hawk-like eyes stared at everyone who approached.
It looked just like a hungry beast that would open its bloody mouth and devour anyone if it felt even slightly dissatisfied.
The players who came to get the badges all looked trembling with fear, walking on thin ice, and they didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that they would get into trouble if they were not careful.
However, when the line finally reached Lu Xiaoli, the situation suddenly took a dramatic turn.
The butler, who originally had a serious face, the moment he saw Lu Xiaoli, his expression changed like a Sichuan opera face-changing, and quickly changed into a flattering and ingratiating smile.
He bent down slightly and said respectfully in a deliberately low but still clearly audible voice, "Miss, this is a sign specially prepared for you. Please be sure to keep it safe!"
Faced with this sudden change, Lu Xiaoli couldn't help but feel a little bewildered. She thought to herself:
"Huh? Oh my god, what's going on? You're treating me like this right after we met. Are you trying to flatter me? That's brilliant! But I won't be fooled that easily!"
At the same time, after witnessing this scene, other players around began to make their own calculations in their minds.
Many people thought that the housekeeper must have taken a fancy to the bright and beautiful Lu Xiaoli, so he treated her so specially.
Especially the woman with short hair, she was extremely angry at this moment.
You know, before this, she always thought that she had successfully won the favor of the housekeeper. Who could have expected that a Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway, and she was a woman more beautiful than herself!
Soon, everyone received their own sign.
Then, a maid with obvious suture marks on her mouth appeared. She assigned the players to different work locations with an expressionless face.
The badge Lu Xiaoli got showed that her job was to be a maid, responsible for being on standby in the hall at all times and standing by to serve the master while he ate.
She quickly glanced at the sign in Shi Yan's hand beside her and found that the word "Driver" was clearly written on it.
So, before they were about to separate and go to their respective jobs, the two looked at each other tacitly and signaled to each other to be more careful.
Suddenly, an extremely shrill howl resounded through the sky, like the cry of an owl at night, which was creepy.
Lu Xiaoli, who was busy at the time, felt his heart tighten when he heard the sudden scream. He quickly glanced around out of the corner of his eye.
The housekeeper who was guarding beside him disappeared at this moment, which made Lu Xiaoli a little bolder.
Out of curiosity and love of gossip - after all, eating melons is an innate human nature!
Lu Xiaoli cautiously took a few steps back, then tiptoed slowly towards the source of the sound.
When he finally arrived at the kitchen door, the scene before him left her dumbfounded.
In the back kitchen, a player from the country with a red sanitary napkin was lying on the ground with a pale face. One of his arms was missing, and blood was gushing out from the broken arm like a fountain, staining a large area of the ground red.
In front of this injured player stood a burly and strong chef.
The chef's face was shrouded in a gloomy and terrifying aura, which made people feel intimidated.
The chef's deep, hoarse voice, as if coming from the Netherworld, pierced the entire kitchen: "Humph! This is the fate of those who dare to steal from the master!
If anyone dares to act dirty in the future, hehehe... then don't blame me for being rude. I'll treat you to a fresh and delicious sashimi feast!"
After saying this, he let out a terrifying laugh that echoed in the air for a long time.
[Ding—die if you make a loud noise! Players from the Sanitary Pad Red Country are eliminated!]
Seeing this, Lu Xiaoli knew that there was nothing exciting to see here anymore, so he turned around and prepared to sneak back to his original location.
However, just as he turned around, he suddenly found that the butler had appeared behind him without him noticing!
