Although the remaining participants were montarily in disarray, these "experts" would never truly be defeated by re snails and geese.
Fish spat lightly after realizing gunfire had no effect on the snail.
"Tch... physical attacks don't work?"
"Highly toxic, huh—let's see how toxic you really are."
Saying this, Fish pulled out a gas mask from her bosom and fastened it over her head.
Then she produced a scroll from her clothing.
Fish tore the scroll, revealing a hexagram pattern before her as thick green smoke erupted forth.
The smoke surged toward the black snail, which retreated into its shell as before.
But this ti, it was futile.
The green smoke seed to lock onto the snail, directly penetrating its shell.
The entire snail shell trembled violently, then...
Holes appeared one after another on the seemingly indestructible shell, emitting sizzling sounds and white smoke as if being corroded.
Soon.
The entire snail completely "disappeared"!
anwhile, Li Hua had completed his preparations.
During intervals of spinning dice, Li Hua finally finished shuffling his deck of cards.
He then drew five cards from the deck and tossed them toward the goose's direction.
Li Hua threw down two chips marked not with numbers but with depictions of eyes.
"Placing bets, my friend!" he announced clearly as the chips landed on the table with crisp sounds.
"Show your cards!"
At his command, both his and the goose's five cards flipped open simultaneously!
Li Hua's hand wasn't strong—just a pair of nines with miscellaneous cards.
But the goose only had a single ace—even weaker!
As the ten cards were revealed, the bewildered wild giant goose let out a shriek, its eye sockets becoming empty, bloody holes.
Blinded, the goose naturally panicked, ceasing its charge and flapping wildly in place!
Seizing this mont, Li Hua drew the king of spades from his deck and flung it, piercing through the goose's left eye socket straight into its small avian brain.
The wild giant goose collapsed heavily onto the table.
Elsewhere, Robin had also eliminated her wild giant goose.
While Li Hua's thod was bizarre enough, Robin's approach sent chills down Lin Yu's spine.
The woman bit her finger and used the blood to sketch a crude goose drawing on paper, then crumpled it.
And on the table...
The wild giant goose's body grotesquely twisted and contorted as if being crushed by imnse forces from all directions!
Equally incomprehensible to Lin Yu was Phantom's thod—the guy simply draped a red cloth over the advancing snail, blew on it...
And the snail vanished into thin air.
Among those present, only Mosin-Nagant's approach made complete sense to Lin Yu.
After repeatedly repelling the snail with arrows, he trapped it at the edge with a net before shattering its "indestructible" shell with so animal's fang dagger.
Regardless...
Watching all this, Lin Yu couldn't help but remark:
"Truly, when eight immortals cross the sea, each displays their divine powers."
These experts' thods had reached levels of weirdness beyond Lin Yu's comprehension.
After all creatures were slain,
Ka spoke up with a smile.
"What magnificent skills our guests have demonstrated!"
"Now then... please enjoy your delicacies."
As Ka spoke, the previously lowered transparent partitions slowly rose.
Then, delicious portions of goose liver and snail were served before each panting participant.
Like trophies of consolation and reward.
"For optimal dining experience, please finish your appetizers within fifteen minutes... Taking too long would be sacrilege against fine cuisine."
"Naturally, we'd have to sever a rope as punishnt."
Ka warned aningfully.
Fifteen minutes might sound ample, but in reality...
It wasn't much at all.
Those who chose snails had it slightly easier—after shelling and frying, the at was only palm-sized.
The goose liver portion... was nearly half a head in size.
And from the clanking sound it made landing on plates, this thing was undoubtedly quite firm.
However, choosing snails had drawbacks too.
The snail flesh was black tinged with purple. Though Ka claid its toxicity was reduced, the remaining poison was absolutely substantial.
Of course...
Whether goose liver or snail at was worse didn't matter to Lin Yu.
Before him sat two plates.
"So the fun earlier cos with payback now!"
Lin Yu sighed.
Not having to fight those creatures was great, but eating this food wouldn't be easy either!
Especially with the fifteen-minute limit.
Plus maintaining Fluoxetine's persona...
Lin Yu quickly began cutting and eating the goose liver with knife and fork.
Admittedly...
The goose liver tasted excellent. Though slightly firr than normal, beyond the crust's sumr-popsicle hardness, the interior was just chewy like tough beef.
The rich aroma paired wonderfully with the sweet-sour blueberry sauce beneath, making it genuinely enjoyable.
The only problem was...
"Too filling. Too rich."
By halfway through, Lin Yu already felt dizzy.
Fortunately, Lin Yu was naturally a fast eater with good appetite—his family ran a restaurant after all...
And in his mory, he often ate double portions.
Thus, when two-thirds of the fifteen minutes had passed...
At the ten-minute mark, Lin Yu had elegantly finished his goose liver.
This speed made him the fastest among all goose liver choosers.
The remaining five minutes, Lin Yu used to recover while eating the snail.
During this breather, he observed the reactions of Li Hua, Radish and Robin who chose snails.
Uncle Radish looked unfazed, as if the weakened toxins didn't affect him.
Li Hua took so dissolving tablets, though his body trembled slightly before the dicine took effect.
As for Robin...
She now sat curled up hugging her knees, sweat rolling down her pale forehead.
"Is this severe toxicity pain-related?"
Watching the trio's reactions, Lin Yu gained so understanding.
The poison's effect seed strongly pain-based!
However, Lin Yu refrained from jumping to conclusions.
He cautiously picked up the snail at, stuffed it whole into his mouth and swallowed.
The initial savory flavor lasted but a mont before the anticipated intense pain arrived.
Only...
The pain's location surprised Lin Yu.
Rather than digestive system issues, the agony ca from his extremities.
Lin Yu instantly understood why Robin looked so miserable.
The pain from fingers and toes—ten digits connecting to the heart—nearly made him scream.
"Fuck!"
"Isn't this pure torture?!"
