The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 1228

Two weeks later, in a secluded alley near the slums of the Zelatadi district, a restaurant named 'Green Wilderness' quietly opened for business.

The exterior of the dark steel building remained largely unchanged, except for a few cylindrical chimneys that stretched straight up to the roof at the back. The only other change was an iron rod extending from the left side of the main entrance, supporting a golden signboard with a sketch depicting a frying pan, cutlery, and food.

Above the main entrance, there is a plaque made of pure gold, with the four vermilion characters "Green Wilderness" written in Common script, which can be clearly seen from afar.

The dozen or so dwarf goblin slaves newly purchased from the slave trader group were trained and officially assigned to chores and hospitality duties. To avoid unnecessary trouble, Willie also hired two ferocious berserker demons as gatekeepers. Although they were only at the peak of the high-level, their strength was sufficient to deal with ordinary demon troublemakers.

After all, following the incident involving the Augustus Gang, the surrounding forces in the slums knew, to varying degrees, that the owner and backer of this seemingly insignificant shop were people they couldn't afford to offend.

"Welcome to our shop! Today is our grand opening, so all dishes and food are 8% off. In addition, we'll be selling a unique high-level magical dish every magical hour, first come, first served!!"

"Struggling to improve your strength and hitting a bottleneck? No problem! Our limited-time sale of high-level magical dishes will solve your problems, with exceptional effects even against high-level demons..."

When the Balrog Brent came to the shop last time, he made the first sale for Bella's food truck business. Later, other forces pretended to approach and buy things in order to find out about Allen and his group, which brought a lot of customers to the snack business.

Once a demon has tasted the delicious food from Feynman's world and confirmed that it is not only harmless but also slightly beneficial to the eater's health, no demon can escape the clutches of magical dishes.

Although no one had any impression or understanding of Bella's meticulously prepared high-level magical dishes, the fact that she dared to have the dwarf goblin waiters shout and promote them on the street still moved many of the demon residents in the area who were stuck in a situation where their strength could not be improved.

Of course, there were also other powerful demons who took this opportunity to come to Allen, who lived a secluded life.

"What happened last time was a misunderstanding, and I hope Mr. Lex can forgive our gang's rude behavior. I, Ulysses, as the leader of the Augustus Gang, assure you that from now on, members of the Augustus Gang will never cause trouble within the territory of the Green Wilderness Tavern. Any demon who violates this rule will be executed by my own hand as an atonement!!"

"If there is any need for our gang to serve in the future, please give us your orders, Mr. Lex. All 366 members of the Augustus Gang will do their utmost to help."

The eight-armed serpent demon named Ulysses stood steadily in front of Allen, each of his four large hands holding a heavy-looking black iron box. He apologized to Allen in a humble and polite tone.

The demon gang members who managed to return described in detail what happened in the shop. At that time, Ulysses knew that they had provoked someone they shouldn't have. Whether it was the Assassin Demon, a core member of the Assassin Guild who took the initiative to clean up the trouble, or the Berserker Demon disguised as Allen who finally showed his overwhelming Saintly strength, if any of them were to investigate what happened that day, the Augustus Gang would suffer a devastating blow.

Ulysses had already prepared to pack up his assets and flee late that night, but at the last minute he couldn't bear to give up the gang's hard-earned foundation. In the end, he chose to risk staying in the gang's territory and quietly wait for the development of events.

After confirming that the other party did not seem to be pursuing the matter further, Ulysses breathed a sigh of relief and then began to prepare to find an opportunity to mend their relationship.

Allen glanced up at the tall, burly eight-armed serpent demon and couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. A powerful being at the peak of demigod level could only become a gang leader in the slums of the Abyss, while in their Mansa Wilderness, a peak demigod level could become the tribal leader and pillar of the alliance of hundreds of thousands of people.

Not daring to meet Allen's eyes, the snake demon Ulysses bent down and placed four huge iron boxes about two meters in front of Allen, then opened them, revealing a variety of precious gems, ores, and equipment inside.

"……hiss"

Besides Ulysses and Allen, several other gang leaders from the surrounding area also took the opportunity of Allen's new store opening to get acquainted with him. Upon seeing the four generous gifts from their rival Ulysses, they all secretly gasped in astonishment, feeling somewhat ashamed of their own gifts. Allen was also slightly surprised; he hadn't expected the Serpent Demon to be so generous, giving gifts that truly suited his needs. He had come to this abyss precisely because he lacked such precious materials.

"Thank you for spending so much money, please have a seat."

Although he was slightly pleased, his expression remained unchanged. Allen simply pointed to one of the few empty tables on the third floor and said calmly.

"Thank you."

Seeing that Allen did not back down his congratulatory gifts, Ulysses was relieved. Although giving away these four gifts had reduced the gang's assets by half, it had at least preserved his foundation, and there would be plenty of opportunities to make up for the losses in the future.

If we could establish a connection with this unpredictable saint, or even get in touch with a big shot in the Assassin's Guild through him, then this loss would be insignificant!

Once the towering Ulysses was seated, Allen turned his gaze to the other, more reserved demons. After a brief silence, one of them, a demon with a massive, tumor-like head supported by a dozen long tentacles and resembling a bewitching demon, used his mind to vibrate the air, producing a sound similar to a human voice: "Respected Berserker Demon Lord, I am from South District 8..."

Several demon leaders introduced themselves to Allen and presented him with gifts. Adhering to the principle of not hitting a smiling face, Allen, although he looked down on these powerful demons from gangs, did not give them a cold shoulder and kindly invited them to sit down and wait for their meal.

Just as the group of powerful demons were looking at each other, unsure of what to say, a figure suddenly appeared in the open space, immediately arousing strong vigilance among all the powerful figures present. The surge of magical power and aura instantly filled the entire building.

Only Allen remained calmly seated, quietly awaiting the uninvited guest's next move.

“Sidney, on behalf of the Assassins Guild and Vice President Brunt, has come to congratulate Mr. Lex.”

The Assassin's Guild emblem on Sidney's body revealed his identity to the powerful figures present. Several gang leaders, upon seeing this, appeared slightly embarrassed and flustered, and quickly concealed their auras.

"Vice President Brunt heard that Mr. Lex's restaurant is opening today, and specially ordered me to deliver a congratulatory gift to you. Please accept it, Mr. Lex."

Sidney held a dimensional artifact and respectfully presented it to Allen. Behind this seemingly innocuous gesture, however, the other demon leaders below secretly grumbled. It seemed that the relationship between this Berserker Saint and the Assassin Guild was far closer than they had imagined.

"Please thank President Brent for me."

Allen didn't stand on ceremony and took the dimensional device directly from Sidney's hand. He probed inside with his consciousness and roughly knew what was inside.

"Now that all the guests have arrived, we can begin the meal."

"Willie, have Bella prepare the dishes."

"Yes."

A culinary feast thus unfolds in the city of demons.
