Di Lang's face changed suddenly, and he threw the packing bag that was being sorted into the cart: "Quick, lift the barbecue grill to the cart, we have to leave quickly."

An Jin was nervous by his emotions, and quickly helped lift the oven, a little puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Di Lang: "The voice just now was the sound of the black horn beast's attack. It sounded like a frenzy. Now it is farther away from us, and if it is closer, you have to use mental power to resist, otherwise you will be injured."

He put the empty basin on the oven and grabbed the handle of the cart: "We can go offline at any time, but the oven will be useless, look at the forest."

An Jin looked over and saw that in the forest, where the roar came from, the surrounding trees were toppled, smoke and dust were everywhere, and the trees at the edge of the forest were shaking violently.

While watching, he silently recited 'Black Horned Roaring Beast' in his heart, which always sounded familiar.

He soon remembered that when he entered the holographic world with Norman before, someone asked Norman for help and mentioned this word.

"It has a geographical advantage, but no one sets up a stall, because it is not safe outside the town's protective cover," Di Lang said, pushing his car towards the town quickly, urging An Jin, "You get off the assembly line first, I dragged things back to the cabin."

An Jin responded, but instead of going offline, he opened the panel, and the sign belonging to the parent was bright, right in the forest.

Norman is hunting the Blackhorn Howler!

He thought about it and ran to the forest.

"An An," Di Lang turned back and saw that he was not offline, but ran into the forest and shouted, "What are you doing, get offline!"

An Jin: "I'll go over and take a look. If there is danger, I'll go offline. Don't worry."

When Di Lang saw him say this, he didn't hesitate. He was worried that the range of the next sound attack of the Black Horned Roar would expand, and he would enter the town without delay.

An Jin ran in the direction of the small blue dot on the panel. There were many bushes and weeds growing in the forest. Fortunately, the hunted person in the middle walked out of the way, and he ran smoothly.

After a while, the black-horned roar let out another roar, An Jin was dizzy for a while, and there was a fishy smell in his mouth, and he hurriedly used the ability treatment.

Ten minutes later, he saw Norman and the huge star beast in front of Norman.

The star beast had dark skin and two black and shiny horns on its forehead. At this time, there were many blood holes on its body. The eyes of the copper bell were bloodshot, and it attacked Norman like a madman.

An Jin's heart tightened, and she bit her lip and didn't make a sound.

Norman's tall body is very agile, dodging the attack of the black horn beast, and he fired when he turned sideways. The bullet with mental power penetrated the skin of the star beast's neck, splashing bright red blood.

The black-horned roaring beast raised its head and roared wildly. The sound was loud and vibrated. With it as the center, the sound waves were pushed away layer by layer.

An Jin was well prepared this time, running his abilities in advance, without causing any discomfort.

He looked at Norman nervously, and he found that whether the star beast attacked Norman or Norman attacked the star beast, Norman's mental power would always decrease.

With an expressionless face, Norman quickly moved to the right side of the star beast and fired several shots at the neck. The star beast turned his head, raised his iron-like feet, and quickly stepped on it.

An Jin acted faster than his thoughts, subconsciously wanted to run over, but was tripped by a grass stem on the ground and stumbled. He quickly stepped on the ground and stabilized his body.

Norman rolled over to avoid the attack, noticed him, his eyes changed slightly, and said solemnly: "An An, off the assembly line."

While speaking, the roaring beast attacked him again, he dodged and fought back at the same time.

An Jin stood on the spot, did not go offline, and did not move again, worried that it would affect Norman.

The black-horned roaring beast was covered with scars and bleed a lot, but the offensive was still slow.

Norman also had blood on his body, but he was wearing black clothes, and An Jin could not tell whether he was injured or not.

What An Jin was more worried about was that Norman's mental power was being rapidly consumed.

Seeing that the little mermaid was no longer approaching, Norman felt relieved and concentrated on dealing with the Blackhorn Howler.

The Black Horned Roar is the most difficult star beast to hunt in the holographic world. It is not particularly powerful, but its vitality is tenacious, and it can attack with sound, which consumes a lot of mental energy.

The best way is to fight with wheels, which consumes slowly, but the distance of the sound attack is very large, and it is difficult to achieve wheel warfare.

Going online and going offline doesn’t work either, because every time you go online, it’s where you go offline. If you’re unlucky, you may be directly stepped on by the roaring beast when you go online.

The Eddie team tried to team up with other people, arrived at another location in the holographic world, and then rushed to the battlefield, but it failed.

When you hear the roar on the way, your mental power will be consumed, and it takes time to travel. It is difficult for those who deal with the roar in front of you to support.

In the holographic world setting, if the star beasts are out of battle, they will recover immediately, and there is no need to slowly recover.

Therefore, if you want to hunt the star beast, you must kill it at one time, and you can't grind it to death slowly.

This is why many people choose to exercise in the holographic world.

As long as you get out of the battle before the star beast dies, you can repeatedly deal with one star beast a day and carry out targeted training.

About half an hour later, Norman accurately shot the Black Horned Howler in the neck again. His shooting was very accurate, and almost all the bullets landed on the neck.

The black-horned roaring beast wailed, and the huge beast's pupils were blood-red, raised its head, opened its mouth wide, and made a final sound attack.

An Jin glanced at Norman's spiritual sea and began to sing.

The brisk singing sounded, and the energy particles quickly flew into the Norman spirit sea.

Norman was stunned for a moment and looked at the boy. He didn't expect that the singing voice in human form would also have a therapeutic effect.

An Jin smiled at him, and while he was not paying attention, he activated the water ability to condense the blood on the face of the Black Horned Roar into a rapidly spinning water arrow, which quickly shot into its eyes.

"Woo..." With a short painful cry, the sound of the black-horned roaring beast stopped abruptly, and fell to the ground with a thud, and the ground trembled.

An Jin looked over, his eyes slightly brightened, this was his first time attacking with water power, and he was very satisfied with the result.

Norman walked up to him: "Why not go offline?"

An Jin was embarrassed to say that he was worried about Norman, as if he doubted Norman's ability. He knew that even if he didn't take action, Norman would be fine.

He said: "I just want to see, you are amazing!"

Norman met the young man's bright eyes and couldn't hold back. He rubbed his broad palm on the top of the young man's head, and said seriously, "An An is also very powerful. Many people can't deal with the continuous sound attacks of the Black Horned Roaring Beast."

He looked at the boy and asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

An Jin shook his head: "No," he frowned, and raised his finger to Norman's strong arm, where there was a bloodstain, "Are you injured?"

Norman: "Not my blood."

An Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to put down his hand when Norman grabbed his hand. He was stunned and looked up.

Norman stared at the little mermaid's fingers and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

The little mermaid only changed her appearance, but her body did not change. Her fingers were slender and soft. At this time, her fair skin was clearly marked by burns.

An Jin curled his fingers: "It's okay."

Norman listened to the little mermaid's soft voice, thinking that the little mermaid was good-natured, timid and squeamish, and suspected that someone was bullying him, his face became more serious: "Someone bullying you?"

An Jin shook his head: "It's really okay."

He didn't want to tell Norman that he was working at a barbecue stall for the time being, and he was going to give Norman a little surprise.

An Jin squeezed his fingers slightly, and Norman released him.

An Jin smiled and pointed at the Black Horned Beast: "Do you want to get it out?"

Norman: "I'll notify someone to come and take it away. You go offline and rest first."

An Jin shook his head. He was in a good mood, and his mental strength recovered quickly. He didn't want to go offline yet.

His eyes were very bright and he asked, "Are you free now?"

Otherwise, it should not be in the holographic world.

Norman: "Available."

An Jin looked expectantly: "Would you like to go to a place with me?"

Norman glanced at the time, it was less than five o'clock, and nodded: "Okay."

An Jin's eyes were bent, and he didn't listen to Norman for a while. He lowered his head, tapped the ground with his toes, and couldn't help but raised his head and asked, "Aren't you curious?"

A smile flashed in Norman's eyes: "You will tell me if you are curious?"

"No," An Jin blinked, "there would be no surprises then."

He murmured softly, "But you don't even ask, you don't seem to be expecting it at all."

Norman was slightly surprised, looked at the boy's slightly bulging cheeks, and thought seriously if he was too boring.

He said seriously: "I'm looking forward to it."

An Jin blushed slightly. Norman cooperated with his careful thinking, but he was a little embarrassed and turned his head to one side.

Norman looked at the side of the boy's face, which was dyed pink, with a deeper smile in his eyes.

Soon, the logistics staff of Eddie's team came over and thanked Norman repeatedly: "Team Tang, the boss and Eddie have not recovered their mental strength to a safe point. They are forbidden to go online. Let me help and thank you."

The boss and Eddie couldn't hold on in the middle of the fight and were forced to go offline by the system.

Norman nodded: "You're welcome, you are busy, don't worry about me."

The logistics staff transferred more than half of the bounty to Norman and greeted the team to work.

Norman did not check the amount. He hunted in the holographic world mainly for exercise, and made money by the way.

He glanced at the little mermaid, the skin below the little mermaid's chin was white and tender, looking soft and clean.

He raised his hand and took off his T-shirt neatly, revealing his strong and exaggerated chest and abs.

An Jin watched for two seconds, then quickly looked away.

The members of the hunting team next to them praised: "Team Tang's muscles are simply a man's dream!"

"It's so handsome, I really want to get a body like this, but it's a pity I'm too poor."

Norman didn't say anything. He wiped off the blood on his body with a T-shirt, wiped the remaining dry blood with a wet tissue from his backpack, and put on a clean T-shirt.

After he put it on, he grabbed the little mermaid's waist with both hands, lightly placed the man on his left arm, and walked out of the forest.

An Jin quickly supported his shoulder, noticed that he had changed his clothes, guessed that it might be related to him, and the tips of his ears were red: "I can go by myself."

"You almost fell," Norman stated.

An Jin was stunned for a moment and wanted to refute, and then thought of the trip over a grass stem before, feeling embarrassed, and explained in a low voice, "I just wasn't careful."

Norman rubbed the top of his head: "It doesn't matter, you are very light, I will walk faster with you in my arms."

An Jin accepted this reason, and Norman held him, saving time!

Outside the forest, Norman looked left and right, frowning slightly.

An Jin also looked around: "What are you looking for?"

"I heard that there is a barbecue stall near here whose barbecue is very delicious, you should like it." Norman explained and continued on.

An Jin's eyes lit up, but he didn't expect his skewers to be so popular!

The corners of his mouth curled up, holding down the pride in his heart: "Maybe it's already closed."

Norman will be surprised when he learns that he made the skewers, and the more he thinks about it, the happier he is.

At this time, Di Lang, the owner of the barbecue stall, was not in a good mood.

He returned to the hut and was about to clean the oven and the pot for marinating skewers when Mu Chen came to the door.

Mu Chen's image in the holographic world is very handsome, and his body has also changed, but he is thinner and looks like a noble boy.

"Excuse me, are you Di Lang?" Although Mu Chen recognized Di Lang, he still asked politely.

Di Lang wondered: "I am, what's the matter with you?" He added, "Today's skewers are sold out."

"I'm not here to buy skewers, I'm asking you something," Mu Chen smiled gently, "In order to show my sincerity, let me introduce myself, I'm Mu Chen, head of the Third Army, hello."

As he spoke, he opened his panel and showed it to Di Lang.

The real identity is hidden on the panel and can only be seen with the permission of the person.

Di Lang's eyes widened, surprised and excited after reading it.

The students of Imperial University are no strangers to the generals in the military. He wiped his hands nervously: "Mu, General Mu Chen, what's the matter with you?"

Mu Chen smiled and patted his shoulder: "Don't be nervous, relax," he seemed to be chatting, "Do you know that your barbecue has the effect of improving your mental strength?"

"... What?" Di Lang hadn't reacted for the first two seconds, but when he did, his voice was completely uncontrollable.

He looked at Mu Chen in disbelief, with a 'Are you kidding me' expression on his face.

Seeing this, Mu Chen was even more certain that the effect of the barbecue had nothing to do with Di Lang. He nodded solemnly: "I'm telling the truth, it seems that you don't know."

"How could I be clear? How is this possible! If I were clear, how could I sell it at such a low price?" Di Lang spoke very quickly, "No, it doesn't seem to be of much use in the holographic world."

When he said this, he calmed down a little, and soon became nervous again: "Don't you think I took advantage of the holographic company, a commercial crime?"

He raised his hand and assured: "I definitely don't." Thinking of his own scheming, he continued, "I am definitely not that kind of guy. His family is very poor, he doesn't even know a few words, and he can't speak easily. How old are you?"

He concluded: "There must be some misunderstanding!"

Hearing this, Mu Chen couldn't help but suspect that his previous guess was wrong.

The Ministry of Information could not find any specific information. Could it be an unregistered citizen in a remote area? Is there such a place in Soo

Mu Chen thought to himself, if there is a real misunderstanding, he must report to His Majesty and develop the economy in remote areas as soon as possible.

However, after thinking about it, the effect of barbecue does exist, and if it has nothing to do with the two people in the barbecue stall, it is even more impossible.

The first thing they investigated was a meat shop. The meat in the shop was very ordinary, nothing special, and the survey results of the seasoning were the same as the meat.

All distractions are ruled out and may only be related to people.

He looked at Di Lang, is this guy a movie king? Was the shock just now a performance

But Di Lang's information from childhood to adulthood is transparent to him, and there is no suspicious point.

If he was really capable, Di Lang wouldn't even be able to get the money for his mother's hospitalization. He even took time to set up a stall to make money during the exam.

After thinking about it, Mu Chen still felt that the guy was the most suspicious.

He asked, "Where is your guy?"

Di Lang: "It should be offline." He opened the panel while talking about the fury of the Mojiao roaring beast. When he saw that An Jin was online, he was surprised.

"Boss." Just as he was talking, a clear and soft voice came from outside the door.

He turned his head and saw that he was being held in the hands of the town celebrity Tang team. He was surprised for a moment, and then suddenly said: "You mean the Tang team when you say invite friends to have a barbecue?"

An Jin nodded and poked Norman's arm. Norman understood and put him down.

Mu Chen looked at Norman in surprise, then at An Jin, and then jokingly said, "Team Tang, won't you introduce me to this young man?"

The light of gossip flashed in his eyes, and when all the Austrians mentioned His Majesty, the adjectives are always and powerful, cold, serious, and taciturn.

When have you seen His Majesty hold someone with a gentle face

Mu Chen was almost certain in his heart that His Majesty was secretly in love!

An Jin heard Mu Chen's joking, blushed slightly, and greeted politely: "Hello, I'm An An."

"An..." Mu Chen paused, looked at Norman suddenly, and spit out very heavy words, with a strong sense of inquiry, "An?"

Norman nodded without changing his expression: "Yes, you are right."

Mu Chen took a deep breath and looked at An Jin's feet subconsciously.

It's the feet!

He felt a strong shock to himself, and even suspected that he was having an absurd dream.

The room fell silent for a moment.

Di Lang quietly grabbed An Jin's arm, pulled him aside, pointed at Mu Chen and whispered, "This is Admiral Mu Chen. He said that our barbecue can restore spiritual power, so he came to investigate."

He spoke in a whisper, in a very low voice. In order for An Jin to hear clearly, he almost whispered in An Jin's ear.

Seeing this, Norman frowned unconsciously.

An Jin was stunned when he heard the words, but quickly calmed down, thinking that the military was really powerful, and he found out so quickly.

He was not used to being too close to people, so he took a step to the side and smiled soothingly at Di Lang: "It's okay."

Seeing his indifferent reaction, Di Lang muttered, "I'll say it must be a misunderstanding."

Mu Chen calmed down, walked to Norman, and whispered the findings of the general to Norman.

Norman's eyes immediately fell on the boy's hand. The injury on the boy's hand was hot from the barbecue!

There was a hint of annoyance on his face. He actually forgot to give the little mermaid money. The little mermaid was playing in the holographic world. If he wanted to eat, he couldn't buy it without money.

It must be because I have no money to work.

After Mu Chen finished reporting, he suddenly said in a tone of voice: "No wonder the information department can't find the information and can't track the address, no wonder Di Lang said he was poor, didn't know how to speak, and didn't speak well, I'm also surprised that Si Ao is so poor. The place."

Norman was even more annoyed, thinking that his little mermaid was working to make money before he learned to speak, and he couldn't help feeling distressed.

Mu Chen was still poking at his heart: "Your Majesty, you are too stingy, you don't even give An An pocket money." He looked at An Jin with gleaming eyes: "If Xiao Yin enters the hologram, he can also talk to me, He's so good, I spend all my money on him!"

Norman said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect it."

He has never been short of money since he was a child, and usually pays with his fingerprints or pupils.

He regarded the little mermaid as a teenager, but he was too impressed with the mermaid, and he never thought that the little mermaid would need to spend money.

He opened the panel and transferred 100 million star coins to the little mermaid.

An Jin heard the beep and opened it to see that it was Norman's transfer reminder. He stared at the row of zeros behind him, startled, and hurriedly looked at Norman, wondering, "Why did you transfer money to me?"

Norman: "Buy you something, let me know if it's not enough."

An Jin shook his head, turned the money back, and said seriously, "You have already spent a lot of money for me, and now I can make my own money."

He walked over to Norman, and his eyes flashed with pride: "The delicious barbecue you said is the one I cooked. When you invited me to dinner last time, I wanted to invite you back.

"I used yesterday's wages to buy a lot of vegetables. You sit and wait, I'll cook barbecue for you."

Norman didn't move, looking down at the boy: "You make money to invite me to dinner?"

"No," An Jin scratched his face embarrassedly, "I'm going to buy something."

Mu Chen's heart turned sour into a lemon. His Majesty was also lucky. The mermaid raised not only did not have to coax him to sing, but he would also make money himself and treat guests to dinner!

Norman's heart softened, and he rubbed the top of the boy's head: "You don't have to work part-time. I want to buy anything with my money. It's right to spend money for you."

Although An Jin knew that Norman said this because he could provide mental power, his heartbeat still accelerated.

He looked at Norman's serious expression, and suddenly felt that Xiao Yin was right, they were not pets, but merman masters.

What he wants from Norman, he will not abuse him or abandon him, he will only be nice to him, he has nothing to worry about, what is this not a master

However, he is not a real mermaid, he is a person with an independent personality and does not want to rely entirely on others.

He smiled at Norman: "I like to make my own money, I feel satisfied."

He pursed his lips, glanced at Mu Chen, then at Norman, and asked in a low voice, "Can I still work at a barbecue stall in the future?"

Norman pondered for a moment: "Do you like barbecue?"

An Jin frowned and thought for a while: "No," he squeezed his fingers embarrassedly, "I only know how to grill."

"You can do what you like, what do you like?" Norman asked.

An Jin moved in his heart, thought for a while, but did not speak.

What he really wants to do is meaningful only in reality, but in reality he is a mermaid.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Norman thought that he couldn't think of what he liked, so he said, "You are still young, and it's normal that you don't find what you like. You'll find out later."

"Well," An Jin replied in a low voice, "Can we continue to barbecue then?"

Norman looked at the boy's finger. If the boy liked it, he wouldn't stop it, but the boy clearly just wanted to make money, and he selfishly wanted the boy to change jobs.

Seeing that the topic turned to barbecue, Mu Chen said to Di Lang: "I found someone investigating you, and found your mother. I asked your mother to be transferred to the military hospital. She may not feel at ease if she doesn't know me. , you go see her."

Di Lang's face changed suddenly: "Is it about the barbecue?"

Mu Chen nodded: "Don't worry, we have already controlled people, and neither you nor your mother will be in danger."

Di Lang thanked An Jin, said hello to An Jin, and went offline.

Mu Chen closed the door and smiled at An Jin when he came back: "Hello An An, I'm Mu Chen, the master of Xiaoyin."

An Jin was stunned, no wonder he felt a little familiar, he smiled: "Hello."

In his heart, he thought that Di Lang had mentioned Mu Chen's identity, and Mu Chen's attitude towards Norman, Mu Chen was an admiral, so what would Norman's identity be

He knew that Norman worked in the military, but he had no idea of his position. He asked curiously, "Are you also a general?"

Norman nodded, and An Jin's eyes lit up: "It's amazing."

Without outsiders, Mu Chen couldn't help but ask: "An An, do you know that the meat you roast has the effect of restoring mental power?"

An Jin hesitated for a moment, thinking about his importance to Norman, and nodded, "Yeah."

Mu Chen took a step forward excitedly: "How did you know?"

An Jin stepped back subconsciously: "I gave them spiritual power."

Norman reminded Mu Chen: "Calm down, don't scare An An."

Mu Chen: "Sorry," he restrained his excitement, "You mean, you passed your spiritual power to the food?"

An Jin nodded, his eyes lit up: "They will become especially delicious!"

He felt Mu Chen's friendly attitude and knew that Norman and him were good friends, so he said, "I'm going to bake something for Norman to eat. Would you like to join us?"

Mu Chen nodded quickly: "Okay."

An Jin thought that fortunately there was a lot of food to buy, he took out the food in the corner and placed it on the table one by one: "You wait for a while, it will be baked soon."

He opened the window and looked at Norman as he said, "Can you help move the grill to the window."

Norman moved the grill as he said.

An Jin thanked him and asked him to sit and wait when he saw that he was still standing.

Norman: "Do you need help?"

An Jin shook his head: "No, the ingredients I bought are all processed, just bake them directly."

He turned on the switch, put the hard-to-cook food first, and neatly brushed the oil and seasoned.

Mu Chen looked curiously, and whispered with Norman: "Your Majesty, how to deal with this matter?" He said with a sigh, "Many people in the military are looking forward to it, thinking that someone has the ability to restore the spiritual power of food, I didn't expect it to be related to mermaids."

He couldn't help but sigh again: "No wonder you were surprised when you said that An An entered the holographic world. I am still surprised now. Is he really An An?"

"Yes," Norman said, "a solid-colored merman and probably closer to a human than a fish."

Mu Chen looked at An Jin's neat movements and nodded in agreement: "Do you want to announce it?"

Norman looked at the little mermaid and pondered for a moment: "No, the mermaid is precious enough, and there is no need to add a bargaining chip to those with bad intentions."

Mu Chen said: "I'm afraid I can't hide it. In addition to the military, other people also discovered the role of barbecue. Those people thought about Di Lang and An An and were warned by my people."

Norman: "Let the holographic company announce the bug." Thinking of the little mermaid's silence before, he said, "The bug is reserved as a welfare for the holographic world. When An An doesn't want to roast meat, the welfare will be cancelled."

Mu Chen: "Are you still going to let An An BBQ make money?"

Norman was a little helpless: "As he likes," he paused, "Negotiate a good price with the holographic company."

Mu Chen agreed: "The barbecue of the pure-colored mermaid can't be too cheap."

At this moment, the aroma of barbecue comes out, the rich meat aroma and sweet corn, spicy and sweet, stimulate people to secrete saliva uncontrollably.

Mu Chen took a deep breath: "This is too fragrant! I didn't buy kebabs online before, and I lost it."

An Jin grilled the star beast meat that Norman ordered last time, and handed it to Norman, expecting, "Do you want to taste it?"

Norman stared at the meat. Unexpectedly, the little mermaid still remembered the dishes he ordered. His heart was soft. He took a bite of the meat.

An Jin's eyes curved: "Last time you ate, I don't think you can eat spicy food very well. The taste is sour. I only gave you a little chili and a little lemon juice when you roasted it."

Norman was slightly startled, but he didn't expect the little mermaid to notice it. He felt strange and warm to this feeling of being taken to heart.
