Apart from the group that had left the castle, the remaining four in the hall were all under Beatrice's watchful gaze. Her eyes fell upon them, observing every move they made.
"This is my sister, you can just call her Betty!" Peter Parker explained as he approached the blonde girl with a can of juice in hand, offering it to her. "Betty, try this juice; it tastes absolutely amazing!"
In this world, if one wanted to drink juice, they could only hope for a chance during the fruit harvest season, and even then, the juice was not particularly tasty. This was Peter Parker's impression after having tasted the kingdom's special juice.
"On behalf of your brother, just take a sip, Betty!" Faced with the canned juice, Betty's eyes flickered slightly. Under Peter Parker's novice guidance, she quickly figured out how to open the can. With a satisfying pop, she opened it and took a big gulp, exhaling afterward. "It’s not bad!"
A little girl who could make sarcastic remarks? And with a tsundere personality?
This must be what it feels like to be drained! Chen Fan thought to himself.
"Betty, try this; it seems to be called potato chips. They're really delicious!" Peter Parker continued introducing various snacks, all of which had been explained by Lai Yueang, who was watching with deadpan eyes.
Faced with an array of high-end snacks, the non-human beings quickly became engrossed. Their mouths and hands were constantly moving, fully displaying their foodie nature. Even Emilia, who radiated an ethereal aura, unknowingly fell into the sugary trap of snacks and succumbed at that moment.
Watching this scene unfold before him, Chen Fan felt his mouth twitch violently. Why did this scene give him a sense of impoverished mountain areas receiving supplies?
He couldn't complain! The boy blinked and suppressed his urge to voice his thoughts as he turned away and left the hall.
...
...
After a long time, the table was completely covered with snack wrappers, and various crumbs littered the floor. It was only at this moment that the few non-human beings gathered around the table finally came back to their senses.
"Where's Chen Fan?" Peter Parker looked around but found no sign of the boy; even his two companions were nowhere to be seen.
"Several guests, the sir is on the rooftop!" a projection of J.A.R.V.I.S. announced.
After some time, it had extracted the components of the language from the town below and added a comprehensive guide to foreign languages into its core programming.
For an intelligent artificial intelligence, this was not a difficult task.
A metallic humanoid figure emerged before them, speaking in the common tongue of the continent, which made several people widen their curious eyes. The Spirit Cat began to circle around J.A.R.V.I.S.'s projection, examining it closely.
Not human? Not even a Demihuman? What a strange thing! Peter Parker turned around a few times, his curiosity growing stronger.
It looked like a pile of metal, yet this pile of metal could move and communicate with language. How incredibly amazing!
Is this science?
……
……
"Excuse me, do you have a broom?" Regardless of her curiosity, Rem, as a maid, blushed as she asked. The various packaging scattered across the table was indeed created by her group.
Of course, there were no brooms in the fortress. However, J.A.R.V.I.S. understood her intent and responded in its 'warmest voice' loaded into its program, "Leave the cleaning to me. You guests can go to the rooftop; there you can enjoy a wonderful view!"
"No way! As a maid, I can't embarrass my master!" Rem insisted firmly, her expression showing that she wouldn't leave without being given the chance to clean up. "Please give me a broom!"
This was a showdown between an intelligent butler and a non-human maid—
However, victory had been predetermined from the very beginning; indeed, there were hidden agendas at play!
Before everyone's eyes, several strange metallic objects emerged from the corner of the hall, moving at incredible speed. In a matter of moments, the somewhat chaotic hall was tidied up, returning to its previously pristine state.
"Alright everyone, the hall has been cleaned!" The voice of J.A.R.V.I.S. rang out as a few people stood in stunned silence. It then gestured invitingly down the descending staircase, saying, "Guests should head to the top floor to enjoy the view. When it's time for lunch, I will come to remind you all!"
Rem's expression stiffened; it was frightening how quickly everything had been organized!
******
At the top level of the Floating Fortress, after activating the isolation layer, a massive platform extended outwards. From here, one could observe a landscape stretching for miles, taking in everything within sight.
As the fortress was situated at a high altitude, the scenery was breathtakingly different.
In a corner of the top floor, beneath a sunshade, Chen Fan squinted his eyes. To be honest, the only advantage of this other world was its clear air and abundant greenery; as far as the eye could see, everything was lush and green.
"This place is much better than the world of Kabaneri. Hmm, it’s necessary to establish a city here too!" The boy thought to himself. If the forging of the spatial gate could succeed, it would be equivalent to opening a door to another world, allowing for easy travel back and forth at any time.
If Odin, who had plotted against Chen Fan, knew that his scheme had backfired and instead gifted Chen Fan with access to another world, he would surely have some choice words in his mind.
"Chen Fan... do you still have those snacks?" Upon reaching the top floor, Peter Parker broke away from Betty's embrace and flew right in front of Chen Fan, immediately bringing up snacks.
"Did you all finish so many snacks already?" This caused Chen Fan's expression to change slightly. There had been plenty of snacks stored in the hall; how could they be gone so quickly? Were they treating snacks as their main course?
It seemed that modern food held an immense allure for people from another world!
Hearing Chen Fan's inquiry, the faces of the group turned slightly red, which made Chen Fan smirk as he noticed their expressions. It was such an obvious reaction; he could tell exactly what they were thinking!
"Betty only had a few pieces of chocolate!" Betty said, genuinely having eaten just a few pieces.
Her tone was filled with dissatisfaction, prompting Chen Fan to give a wry smile and shrug. Was she reminding him? Reminding him to bring out more snacks?
Helplessness washed over him, the helplessness of dealing with food lovers. Facing their eager gazes, Chen Fan reluctantly said, "I'll have someone bring some more over later."
"Oh, that would be too much trouble!" Peter Parker rubbed his hands together, his expression clearly showing that he felt it was indeed a bother, while also giving Chen Fan a supportive look.
Emilia, with her ethereal aura, blushed slightly. Snacks were truly magical food—so delicious!
"By the way, do you guys know about items with spatial properties?" Chen Fan asked tentatively. Judging by the expressions on their faces, he felt reassured; they seemed to know! That was good—it saved him time searching.
"Holy Gold Coin is a metal with spatial properties! Didn't you know?" Peter Parker asked in confusion. The very thing they were looking for was right there, yet the other person looked completely clueless—it was quite amusing!
"Holy Gold Coin? A metal with spatial properties?" Sweat trickled down Chen Fan's forehead as he felt a sense of melancholy akin to searching for something in dreams only to suddenly realize it was right in his pocket.
As for items with properties, well, Chen Fan admitted he lacked understanding. As a Godslayer, he was only sensitive to divine energies; everything else simply didn't attract his attention.
Since Holy Gold Coin was indeed a metal with spatial properties, the target was confirmed. Now it was just a matter of collecting them and figuring out how many he needed.
