Inexplicable

Little fatty Hua Xiong was helped up by his personal guard, and inevitably burst into tears and wails. Anyone who didn't know would have thought the old Angel King had kicked the bucket. Anyway, Hua Zhen was too lazy to pay attention to him and signaled to the deacon of the Construction Department. Under his guidance, he walked towards the banquet hall of the Tiangong Ship.

After entering the hall, Hua Zhen was deeply shocked by the scene inside. Only then did he truly understand how Grandma Liu felt when she entered the Grand View Garden.

The structure of the hall was similar to the Baroque style, with an area of at least several thousand square meters. Complex and huge crystal chandeliers hung in the very center of the hall, crystal clear and obviously finely polished.

The surrounding walls were covered with exquisite and beautiful relief murals, which were illuminated by the crystal lamps, making them extremely brilliant. The thick red carpet was laid underfoot, and stepping on it felt like being in the clouds, light and comfortable.

At the end directly opposite the hall door was a wide and long staircase. At the top was a throne carved with angel wings, luxurious and majestic, supreme and noble. It belonged to Angel King Hua Que, and its extreme luxury fully reflected the ingenuity of the Construction Department.

At this time, many people had already arrived in the hall, including some Commanders and Generals of the Angel Civilization, as well as Governors of the subordinate civilizations with relatively high status. Many of them brought their families with them.

This was easy to understand. Angel King Hua Que's birthday was only celebrated once every thousand years. Those who came to celebrate his birthday were all highly respected dignitaries. If they could seize this rare opportunity to befriend a 'big shot' who could help their family or civilization, it would be of great significance. After all, this was one of their purposes in coming here.

Hua Zhen was just a child who grew up in an ordinary family in his previous life. Although he had seen this kind of 'high society' social occasion on TV, it was his first time experiencing it personally.

He automatically shielded the stinky men who were toasting and flattering each other. After watching those delicate and beautiful, graceful beauties for a while, he smacked his lips and said, "Tsk tsk... Does entering the gene era even affect appearance? Each one of them has fair skin, beautiful looks, and long legs!"

The deacon of the Construction Department beside him didn't hear clearly and asked with some confusion, "Third Prince, do you have any instructions?"

"Ah? Oh, it's nothing..." Hua Zhen retracted his gaze and waved his hand at him, "You go ahead with your work, it's fine as long as I have Gus with me!"

"Okay, Third Prince. If there's anything, you can call me through this at any time!" The deacon handed Hua Zhen a communication device the size of a finger ring, and then respectfully retreated.

"Let's go, Gus, see if there's anything to eat. I'm starving to death now~"

Seeing that his arrival had already attracted the attention of others, Hua Zhen called out to Gus and walked towards a table full of various foods. He didn't want to pay attention to those irrelevant guys.

The crowd in the hall watched him for a while and then stopped observing, continuing to chat with the people around them.

Although Hua Zhen was the Third Prince of Tiangong, he was still young after all. And to put it bluntly, apart from his noble status, his say in Tiangong was probably not as good as many people in the hall. These people were all shrewd, and it was impossible for them to waste this rare opportunity to curry favor on a little prince who couldn't help them! They were all very realistic~

The scene switched to Hua Zhen's side...

He thought that the food and drinks at the old Angel King's birthday banquet would be much better than those in his bedroom, but when he approached the table and looked at the food on it, his eyes were full of disappointment.

Perhaps it was because the pursuit of food was not so high after the civilization level entered the gene era. The Angel Civilization's diet was a bit similar to that of ancient Western countries in Hua Zhen's original world. There were three main characteristics:

First, raw. The grilled meat must have blood on it. After a meal, it was like eating a dead child, with a mouthful of blood red.

Second, cold. Ice cubes must be added to all drinks and wines, which was barely acceptable.

The third point, which Hua Zhen couldn't stand the most, was that there was no meal without sweets and no sweets without a meal!

For example, the sweet soup in front of him, he had drunk it in his bedroom before. Seriously, if he didn't have two bottles of insulin, he wouldn't dare to take a sip. It was sickeningly sweet.

"This can't go on. After I go back, I have to teach Lian Xi to make something edible!" Hua Zhen said vaguely while gnawing on a simple 'Hot Dog Sandwich' in his hand.

Gus didn't understand why he had to clip (jiā, pick up with chopsticks) grilled meat and milk cake together in bread. Could this be delicious? Seeing him eating and stretching his neck, he quickly picked up the sweet soup on the table and said with concern, "Your Highness, eat slowly and don't choke. Here, have a sip of sweet soup to smooth it down..."

Hua Zhen's little face darkened, and he resisted the urge to kick him to death. He said with a fake smile, "Gus, you've been busy for me since morning, and you haven't even had time to drink a sip of water. You've really worked hard. So, you should drink this bowl of soup..."

He paused, "Remember to finish it in one gulp~"

"Uh, that... Your Highness, drinking it all in one gulp will make me sick..."

"You knew it would make you sick and you still brought the whole bowl over for me to drink. Are you doing this on purpose?" Hua Zhen showed a fierce look and bared his teeth, "Drink it!!"

'I just saw that you were choking~~' Gus cried out in grievance.

"Huh? Why is the little Third Prince here all alone?"

Just as Gus was contemplating whether to obey his Third Prince's order and gulp down the sweet soup, a gentle voice suddenly sounded from behind. He turned his head to look and his eyes widened instantly. "L... Left... Left..."

Hua Zhen looked over, puzzled. He saw that the newcomer was a middle-aged male angel with neatly styled golden hair in the fashion of English nobility. A silver toga was draped over his body, giving him a very gentlemanly air.

Left Wing King? Hua Zhen frowned almost imperceptibly. Before attending the old Angel King's birthday celebration, he had done a lot of homework, so he recognized the middle-aged man at a glance.

Angel King Hua Que had two great wing guards: Left Wing King Miller and Right Wing King He Zheng!

In Angel Palace City, both of them held extremely high prestige and status, equivalent to the left and right prime ministers of ancient China. Unlike He Zheng, an old-fashioned noble, Miller had risen from an ordinary angel to his current position step by step. Not only was his strength astonishing, but his personal abilities were also very strong.

Gus was just a nobody in Tiangong. After seeing Miller, the fact that he didn't dump the bowl of sweet soup on Hua Zhen's head showed that his mental fortitude was pretty good.

"Greetings, Left Wing King~" Although he didn't know what this guy was doing here, Hua Zhen still politely greeted him as a junior. Compared to the Wing King, who was second only to one person and above ten thousand, his status as the Third Prince was far too inferior, so he had to treat him with caution.

Recalling what his subordinates had reported to him about the little guy in front of him, Miller couldn't help but find it amusing. He walked to Hua Zhen's side, patted his head, and asked softly, "Little Third Prince, why didn't you wear a protective device before entering the Tiangong Ship? Do you know how dangerous that is?"

Hua Zhen was an adult, so being treated like a child and having his head rubbed by Miller made him feel very awkward, but he didn't show it. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "Gus told me before that the angel gene cannot withstand the transmission of the Wormhole Device before it has been upgraded. I didn't believe him, so I..."

Miller laughed loudly upon hearing this. "Haha... I bet the little Third Prince must have felt terrible at the time, right?"

"Uh... yes!" It was more than just terrible, I almost threw up my bile.

"You little rascal, you're too reckless..." Miller shook his head and chuckled as he looked at the half-eaten 'Hot Dog Sandwich' in his hand. "The Angel King's birthday banquet will last a long time, Little Third Prince, you should eat more. I won't disturb you any longer..."

Watching his departing figure, Hua Zhen was at a loss.

"Left... what was the Left Wing King doing?" Gus voiced his doubts. Coming here, saying a few words, and then leaving, no one would think it was just a simple greeting.

Hua Zhen frowned and fell into deep thought
