Chapter 270 Kafka
Changle Street is extremely bustling.
There are all kinds of stalls on both sides of the street.
Beside the stall, Lin Tian, Xiao Wu and others sat around a slightly worn but clean wooden table.
Xiao Wu held the crumpled menu tightly in her hand, her eyes gleaming with curiosity.
She leaned close to Lin Tian intimately, and her furry rabbit ears trembled slightly from time to time.
"Brother Tian, the names here are all weird. Take a look. What should we eat?"
Lin Tian leaned slightly to the side, casually scanning the menu. He then pointed at two items and said, "I think the soda bean juice and the Qiongshi bird skewers are good."
"is it?"
Xiao Wu blinked her big watery eyes and tilted her head even more.
She always felt that there was something hidden in Lin Tian's recommendation, but after looking at it from left to right, she couldn't figure out what it was.
So, Xiao Wu turned around and discussed with Alicia and Medusa who were sitting beside her.
After the three of them discussed in low voices for a few minutes, they ordered a few more of the restaurant's specialties.
At this moment, a light sound of footsteps was heard. A woman in a well-tailored suit quietly came up behind Lin Tian.
"Excuse me, everyone,"
The woman's voice was gentle and apologetic.
"There are so many customers in our shop today that there aren't enough seats. Can I squeeze in and sit here for a while?"
This sudden sound instantly attracted the attention of several women.
Lin Tian also turned around at this time. After seeing who was coming, he couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly, with a look of surprise on his face, "It's you!"
Kafka did not show much surprise when he saw that Lin Tian knew him.
The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a perfect smile, and then she slowly sat down on a chair beside her.
"It seems you know me, sir," Kafka said softly. "Then I won't bother introducing myself any more. May I know your name, sir?"
Lin Tian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked Kafka up and down.
"My name is Lin Tian. I didn't expect to run into a member of the Galaxy Hunters in a place like this. It's quite surprising. Tell me, what do you want from me?"
Kafka's expression was calm, and he met Lin Tian's gaze calmly. "Mr. Lin Tian, are you so sure that I came here specifically to see you?"
Lin Tian chuckled, his tone a little teasing, "Did you come all this way here just to go on a date with me?"
Kafka was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Lin Tian to say that.
But she quickly reacted, nodded gently, and a charming smile bloomed on her face, like a flower blooming in spring.
"Dating? I've never experienced that before. If I have time, maybe I can give it a try."
Seeing that the topic was gradually going off track, Lin Tian's expression straightened up and he spoke seriously.
"You'd better stop beating around the bush and just tell me your real purpose. Of course, if you really just came here to eat, just pretend I didn't ask."
Kafka smiled, leaned forward slightly, and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"I came here this time to discuss cooperation with Mr. Lin Tian and make friends with him."
"Oh?" Lin Tian raised an eyebrow, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes. This time he was really interested. "What do you want to cooperate on?"
"I would like to invite Mr. Lin Tian to join us in dealing with the Star God," Kafka's eyes were firm and sincere.
"If you are willing, sir, if you need any help in the future, we, the Galaxy Hunters, will definitely not refuse."
Lin Tian thought to himself that as the Heavenly Dao, he had to weigh the pros and cons before doing anything and calculate how many Origin Points he could obtain, or other equivalent benefits.
I am not strong enough at the moment, so I have to be careful in my actions.
If we have the help of the Star Core Hunters, we can do many things with ease.
Thinking of this, Lin Tian nodded slightly. "Cooperation is certainly something we can consider, but dealing with a Star God is no small matter. Are you sure you have the strength to do it? Besides, why did you come to me?"
Kafka shook his head slightly, then nodded slowly.
"Just because we don't have it now doesn't mean we won't have it in the future. As for choosing to cooperate with Mr. Lin Tian, it's because you are an unpredictable existence in our eyes, so we naturally have to build a good relationship with you in advance."
As she spoke, Kafka took out a small mobile phone from her exquisite handbag, handed it to Lin Tian, and asked him to add a contact number.
After doing all this, Kafka slowly stood up and straightened the corners of his clothes.
"Since the cooperation has been reached, I will take my leave first. If you have any questions, you can contact me at any time."
Kafka just turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly seemed to remember something and turned back again.
"By the way, there might be some disturbances on the Immortal Boat soon. Sir, please be prepared in advance."
As Kafka's figure disappeared in the crowd, Xiao Wu came over immediately, her face full of curiosity.
"Brother Tian, you two were so mysterious just now, what were you talking about?"
"It's nothing, just a small matter..." Lin Tian said lightly.
After listening to Lin Tian's explanation, Xiao Wu frowned slightly and raised the first question.
"Brother Tian, isn't this a bit unreliable? I feel like your cooperation is just empty promises, with no tangible benefits to be seen."
"And that woman seems to have known our purpose. I'm always worried that she will deliberately trick us."
Lin Tian smiled and nodded, reaching out to gently touch Xiao Wu's rabbit ears, his eyes full of admiration, "You are quite smart."
Hearing this, Xiao Wu was stunned at first, then reacted, rolled her eyes in frustration, and said coquettishly: "Brother Tian, you are so mean, don't tease me."
"Okay, okay, I was just kidding."
"Cooperating with her also makes it easier for us to act. You don't have to worry about any danger. With me here, how could we possibly suffer any loss?"
Seeing Lin Tian say this, Xiao Wu stopped trying to dissuade him.
At this time, the waiter came over with steaming hot food.
Xiao Wu looked at the glass of slightly turbid soda soy milk in front of her, her eyes full of anticipation.
She held the cup with both hands, took a deep breath, and took a big sip.
The next second, a unique and strange smell instantly exploded in the mouth.
The taste was like the fermentation product of various strange things mixed together.
Xiao Wu's face turned pale in an instant, and a trace of pain flashed in her originally bright eyes.
But under the puzzled gazes of Alicia and Medusa, she suppressed the feeling of nausea and vomiting, tried hard to pretend to be normal, and even forced out a look of seeming enjoyment.
"It's the first time I've had such a delicious drink. I felt like I saw my mother." Xiao Wu's voice trembled slightly, with a barely perceptible sob at the end.
"Really? Is it really that delicious?"
Alicia looked skeptical, her beautiful blue eyes filled with suspicion.
Then he picked up a glass of soda soy milk and took a sip.
In an instant, the same disgusting taste spread in the mouth.
Alicia's body suddenly stiffened, she subconsciously covered her mouth, closed her eyes tightly, and a crystal tear slowly slid down her fair cheek.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu, who was standing by, suppressed the urge to burst out laughing and secretly glanced at Alicia.
Then he pretended to be calm and pushed a glass of soda bean juice to Medusa, with a seemingly sincere smile on his face.
"This stuff is really delicious, don't you want to try it?"
Medusa frowned slightly, looking at Xiao Wu and Ailishiya who were "drinking so much that they were about to cry", and she always felt that something was wrong.
She picked up the cup suspiciously, but instead of drinking it directly, she sniffed it gently. The strange smell made her frown.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu gritted her teeth, picked up the soda bean juice in her hand again, and took another small sip.
Secretly, her right hand was gripping Lin Tian's arm tightly like a pair of pliers. Her fingers turned white due to the force, and Lin Tian's arm was deformed.
You can imagine how bad this thing tastes.
Alicia on the side also cast an expectant look. Seeing this, Medusa hesitated for a moment, and finally picked up the soda bean juice and took a big sip.
In an instant, the strange taste that had been condensed for who knows how many years exploded in the mouth, like a taste disaster.
Medusa's face suddenly changed, and she screamed "Wow" and vomited.
Xiao Wu and Ailishiya on the side could no longer pretend. They opened their mouths almost at the same time and spat out the soda bean juice in their mouths.
The milky white soy juice splashed everywhere, creating an embarrassing scene.
After recovering from her shock, Alicia immediately gave Xiao Wu a blaming look.
"Xiao Wu, aren't we best friends? Why are you trying to trick us?"
Xiao Wu wiped the remaining soy milk from the corner of her mouth and stuck out her tongue embarrassedly. "I learned this from Brother Tian. He said that delicious food should be shared with everyone."
Seeing Xiao Wu bringing the flames of war to himself, Lin Tian quickly held up his hand to deny, "I didn't do that. Don't talk nonsense, or I'll sue you for defamation."
Just as the four of them were laughing and joking, the originally quiet shop suddenly began to shake violently, as if it had encountered a small earthquake.
The dishes and chopsticks on the table clinked and the people around looked panicked.
Accompanied by a fluctuation of energy that was imperceptible to ordinary people, the fluctuation spread rapidly in the air like invisible ripples.
In a void in the center of the immortal boat, a huge ancient tree is growing at an astonishing speed.
At the same time, many indigenous people on the fairy boat seemed to be eroded by some evil force. Their bodies began to twist and deform, and they mutated and degenerated, turning into monsters that only knew how to kill.
