Chapter 31 - The Gourmet Mirage
Everyone on the ship smelled a delicious taste almost at the same time. Before the feeding center in their hypothalamus could command them to “find food”, they already felt their visions blurred and fell into a mirage weaved by the delicious smell of food.
This was the same for Angor.
All kinds of stunningly colorful dishes floated in front of his eyes, making him want to dig in right away. When accompanied by the persistent aroma rubbing against his nose, Angor could not control his hands from reaching for the honeyed roast drumstick beside him.
Uncontrolled desire could affect all of man’s physiological attributes, including sanity.
When the desire to eat had filled Angor’s brain, he lost all reason, all logic. His mind was as blurry as a beast.
He was not the only one. All common people on the ship had been seized by the desire for food and screamed madly, coveting the mirage food.
As Angor struggled against his uncontrollable appetite, an itchy feeling worse than the hunger suddenly appeared around the bladebones on his back.
