CH 41

TL: Hua

After telling Rowlett that he could eat human food, the old chief steward did not need to be reminded and very thoughtfully told the kitchen to cook some different kinds of food every day.

Perhaps, like Clarice, he deeply sympathizes with his experience of having to eat small white bait without any seasoning in order to follow the crowd.

Ji Mingjiang scooped a spoonful of boiled milky yam pork rib soup into his bowl, blew off the heat on the surface, and took a sip into his mouth. Sliding between the teeth, the dense and silky taste made Ji Mingjiang’s eyes shine, and the fish tail happily splashed a few times in the water.

Clarice had just changed his clothes and hung them in the dryer when Ji Mingjiang saw with sharp eyes that he had taken out another tube of nutrient solution from the space button. It was light green and looked very fresh, but he didn’t know what the taste was.

It made Ji Mingjiang unreasonably think of the grass cake that he had been curious about since he was a child.

Thinking of the lack of energy he faintly felt when he changed his form just now, he hastily swallowed the soft and juicy pork ribs wrapped in yam paste in his mouth and tugged on Clarice’s trouser legs.

“If you want to drink, just say so.”

Leiden glanced at Ji Mingjiang helplessly, stuffed the lime-flavored nutrient solution into the mermaid’s outstretched hand, and walked to the dining table specially prepared for the mermaid in the pool.

Facing Ji Mingjiang’s incredulous gaze, he ruthlessly took away nearly half of the lunch.

“Don’t eat too much at noon after drinking the nutrient solution, or your afternoon appointment with Bernie Lavender may have to be spent with Lin Feng’s questioning.”

“Oh…” Seeing with regret that the large bowl of pork rib soup and the crispy fried squirrel mandarin fish were taken aside by Clarice, Ji Mingjiang slowed down and ate the rest of his bowl of yam rib soup and a few fried small dried fish seasoned with salt and pepper.

In the end, he put down his chopsticks almost at the same time as Clarice. As for the tube of nutrient solution, he drank it like an after-meal drink.

The lime flavor is very refreshing. It washes away much of the mellowness of the meat that remains in the mouth.

The empty glass tube was taken away by Clarice and thrown into a trash can on the side. While sorting out the accumulated energy in his body, Ji Mingjiang talked to Clarice curiously about the fact that Flavin was a bit overreacting this morning.

“As the head of the Lavender family, hasn’t he seen a mermaid before? He looked at me so surprised at that time.”

That expression was definitely not just because he was surprised that a mermaid suddenly appeared next to Clarice; it was more like an emotion towards him and the mermaid itself.

But thanks to his violent mood swings at the time, Ji Mingjiang noticed the continuous spillover of mental power almost without any effort, and it also made him more confident in his copying and pasting.

Thinking of this, Ji Mingjiang gave that old gentleman a big thumbs up in his heart.

“Didn’t you guess that?” Upon hearing his question, Leiden first glanced at Ji Mingjiang in surprise and then explained, “Flavian’s bestial mutation direction is hamster. It has a timid character and a sublime personality and has never caused any serious damage to Flavin’s spiritual sea. The occasional little restlessness can be solved by finding a feline primary beastman.”

“Ah?” Ji Mingjiang was originally leaning on the edge of the pool with one elbow. When he heard this, he almost knocked his arm against the edge of the pool.

“It’s a good thing the pool wasn’t damaged…” Ji Mingjiang breathed a sigh of relief after taking a look at the intact pool edge and his strong arm without even a single red mark.

However, does spiritual counseling still follow the natural law of suppression by natural enemies? !

What kind of science but not scientific setting is this!!!

“So, besides him, what about the rest of his family?” You can’t have a family that can rely on their natural enemies for spiritual counseling, can you?

“The fact is that almost none of the new generation and the previous generation of the Lavender family have mutated in the direction of fierce beasts. The ratio of ordinary human to those beastmen that mutate in the direction of docile animals is about 60 to 30. In the new generation, only the one named Bernie had the fierce beast mutation.”

The sound of the dryer stopped at some point. Leiden took out the dry and tidy clothes from it and hung them on the coat rack. After thinking for a while, he answered Ji Mingjiang’s question.

Speaking of this, Leiden couldn’t help but feel a little bit of admiration. Although the genetic mutation will greatly improve people’s physical fitness in all aspects, as an ordinary person, it may not necessarily be worse.

Flavin’s eldest son, as he remembered, was named Bernard. Although he didn’t mutate, he had already become the Minister of Finance in his thirties because of his conscientiousness and responsibility.

“So, living as an ordinary person who does not mutate may be a good thing for a family like Lavender.”

As for how to let those ordinary people who have no noble background and no genetic mutation live in peace, Leiden feels that he has been doing a pretty good job since he took office.

…

“Ah? You mean my brother?”

In the Mecha Hall in the afternoon, Ji Mingjiang curiously asked about it after finishing a match with Bernie.

When Bernie heard him mention Bernard, he hissed like a conditioned reflex before saying, “Don’t mention my big brother’s name. Whenever you say his name, I feel my ass hurt.”

After speaking, in order to express his grief and indignation, Bernie also put a bubble on his head that read “QAQ”.

“But my brother is really hardworking.” He was angry, but he still admired him very much.

“As far as I can remember, I feel that my brother hasn’t stayed at home very much. He stayed at home longer after he had someone under his command, which means that his work has stabilized in the past few years. When I was in my room playing games all night, I saw that the light in his room was still on until 4 a.m. Then he went out for exercise after six o’clock in the morning.”

When speaking so unreservedly, Bernie felt that the gap between him and his brother was a bit too big, so he glanced at Ji Mingjiang’s covered face and quickly made an excuse for himself: “I just graduated from junior high school, so playing games all night is normal!”

Ji Mingjiang laughed and looked in the direction of the mecha hall, saying, “Well, it’s actually normal to play games now.”

Seeing Bernie’s face suddenly flush, Ji Mingjiang consciously changed the subject.

“Then what is your direction of bestialization?”

Bernie had also told him before that he was going to go to military school, and this question was not too abrupt.

Jimingjiang is mainly curious about what kind of animal Bernie Lavender will be with his firecracker temper.

It’s impossible to be a rabbit, hamster, or small parrot!

“So that’s what you have been wanting to ask!” Sure enough, when talking about his bestialization direction, Bernie Lavender showed the complacent look that Ji Mingjiang saw when he first met him.

Ji Mingjiang turned sideways slightly, showing a look of attentive listening.

With a very supportive audience that he still wanted to win over, Bernie began to speak without any reservation.

“My mutation direction is Great White Shark!”

Wow, what a coincidence!

Ji Mingjiang, who hammered great white sharks at the bottom of the sea every day before, raised his eyebrows, his face showing a bit of surprise.

I didn’t expect to be able to hammer the virtual great white shark in the interstellar world after hammering the real great white shark.

This is fate.

And this was directly taken by Bernie as an expression of being shocked by his powerful mutation direction. So he feels even more smug.

“Isn’t it amazing! I did special research at the time and found out that the great white shark is the overlord of the ocean!”

No, mermaids are. Ji Mingjiang listened and retorted silently in his heart.

“At that time, my old man was worried when he found out.”

Indeed, the natural enemies of those rabbits and hamsters in your house certainly cannot help you, great white shark.

“Then just a while ago, my mental power had a little riot for the first time, and he found me a spot for the mermaid matching day. After all, the great white shark must be more troublesome than other animals when it becomes agitated. Finding a mermaid for spiritual counseling is the best solution.”

Wait a minute……

Ji Mingjiang hasn’t forgotten that his match list at the time included the young master who is now sitting across from him.

Thinking of this, he tilted his hooded head back slightly and was about to run away if the situation went wrong.

“I chose a very good-looking mermaid that was different from other mermaids, and then I didn’t even get to see him before being eliminated in the first round. Although the others were equally disliked by that mermaid.”

Bernie reminisced about the first turning point in his life. He was still gloating about that marshal, president, and film star, but for some reason, his expression suddenly changed, and he said furiously, “But I heard that the mermaid still matched someone else and left. It must be the guy who suddenly sent a message to the person in charge to jump in line! Don’t let me know who he is!!”

Hearing this, Ji Mingjiang raised his head and gave him a complicated look.

Silly boy, two days ago he was still talking about how scary Clarice is, but today he has already uttered such words…

This extreme contrast reinforced the idea that he couldn’t fall off the horse1An internet slang meaning that your identity is being exposed. here. His face wasn’t adjusted much, and he also threw away the starry sky hair dye before, so if Bernie looked closely, he might recognize him.

But it shouldn’t be a problem.

However, people always have to pay the price for the flag they set, even if the flag has just been set for a second.

Probably because the hood had shifted slightly when he raised his head, a strand of silver-white hair quietly floated out of the hood and hung down to Jimingjiang’s chest.

“Eh?” Bernie was a little surprised that the mysterious and powerful boss had such youthful silver hair, “By the way, the mermaid I just mentioned has the same hair color as yours!”

“And it seems that it’s not just the same hair color…”

The length of the hair and the smooth and shiny texture are also similar.

Without waiting for him to utter his next exclamation, Ji Mingjiang took a pretend glance at his bracelet and then jerked up to his feet.

“Someone matched me just now; I’ll go there first.”

The pace was much faster than usual, and Bernie, who looked confused, was quickly left behind. After sitting in the cockpit of the mecha, Ji Mingjiang breathed a sigh of relief.

“I’m scared to death; I will die of embarrassment if I fall off my horse at this time…”

The muttered words were covered up by the mechanical beep that rang out after detecting someone entering.

[Player/eh564e, currently in the advanced field, has not entered the overall ranking; do you enter the ranking match? ]

Upon hearing the system sound that had undergone significant changes compared to before, Ji Mingjiang then looked at the screen in front of him.

After reviewing his record, he realized that due to the excessive matches with Bernie and other random players in the past two days and his stable winning rate, he had met the requirements to move up to the advanced field after finishing the match with Bernie just now.

Sliding his finger over the long list on the screen in front of him, Ji Mingjiang chuckled. “That goes without saying. Of course, the choice is confirmed.”

After pressing the OK button, the leaderboard in front of him had an additional online status marker after each person’s name, and only players who showed up online could be challenged.

On weekday afternoons, there were not many people online on the list, and the top 100 people were even offline, which made Ji Mingjiang very frustrated.

Finally, after going through the list for most of the day, he finally decided on his target for this challenge.

Although not a very top ranking, ……

They really need a beating!

[Player Come And Beat Me, total ranking 666, status online, do you want to challenge? ]
