In Shadow City, I have seen enough of the grotesque high-tech fortresses and strange visitors from other worlds. I have seen the rust-smelling armored scorpions flying in the wind for thirty miles. After the passionate conscription advertisement, Sagina and Sona finally walked into the portal and came to my house, and then they saw the residence of the head of such a powerful empire, and immediately... almost passed... Anyway, Sagina The expression looked like it was about to twitch.
Sagina looked at me with particularly subtle eyes, with question marks looming in her head, while Sona scanned the living room before the portal behind her completely dissipated, and the last two eyes fell on me. On the body, Sona said tactfully: "Well... it seems that the living area of the empire should not be tight?"
Sagina was more straightforward: "His Majesty the Emperor lives here? Why is your living room not as big as the Crow Temple?"
"Er... the house is enough, anyway, I think so," I knew that Sakina and Sona both had this question, so I scratched my hair in embarrassment, "As the saying goes, even if there are tens of millions of rooms in Guangsha, only one person can sleep." It needs to be two feet wide. If I wake up early and see the ceiling two meters away from me, I feel like I have been exiled by the whole world... "
As soon as I finished speaking, Miss Lin's lazy and uplifting voice came from beside me: "Look at your talent, if Miss Ben sees the ceiling within three meters of me when I'm sleeping, I'll feel like I've been exiled from the world Woolen cloth."
As usual, Lin Xue showed up at my house with her meal in hand, and now she was leaning on the sofa without any seriousness. Dangling on the armrest of the sofa with bare feet, listening to Guo ○ Gang talking about Yu ○’s family on TV, I knew she was talking nonsense again, so I followed suit: "Then next time you go to sleep in the patio... eh , you tricked Xiaoxue to listen to your dad bragging again?"
If I remember correctly, Miss Lin is still in a state of confinement, but she can still show up in the living room with a precise meal, and she doesn't see Xiaoxue's strange figure in her sight. It seems that there is only one truth: this is not The responsible teenage mother cheated her daughter again without hesitation. From this I began to sigh. Lin's father and Lin's mother's confinement of her has a meaning...
"I promise to give her twice the pocket money after I give birth to her in the future—by the way, try not to scream when you beat her up, and then the child will go to her grandfather's house," the eldest lady rolled her eyelids glanced at me. Her gaze suddenly fell behind Sandora, and she found the Arcane Bean Dangling like a jelly, and she immediately let out an exclamation. "Yeah, where did you get the slime from?"
My thoughts are still stuck in the first half of her sentence: "I don't think I like to beat children, then in the future Xiaoxue must be educated all day long because she has learned completely wrongly-you can't just spoil her, give Xiaoxue It's not good for children to have too much pocket money... Oh, you said this, this is not a slime, it's an elemental creature, what I got from Alleria is a mysterious 'robot'."
"I know that girl can't be used to it, anyway, she won't be able to make decisions once she is born. Hey. This slime can transform. It just turned into a chair—come, let me see if it turns into a bicycle."
Everyone must have noticed that Lin Xue and I were discussing two topics at the same time. The young lady called this a non-linear dialogue. In fact, if I want to chat with Qianqian, it is even more powerful. We can discuss more than a dozen topics at the same time without mixing with each other...
Sagina and Sona looked at Lin Xue and me chattering with each other in a dumbfounded posture. At this time, the elder sister stepped forward and said to the two half-dragon girls with a smile: "This is called a non-linear dialogue." , Just get used to it. Let’s eat first, there are not so many particulars here, and all visitors and guests are welcome. Just relax like when you were in the ancient garden.”
At this moment, I heard a childish cry from the side: "Gah~!" Turning my head, it turned out that the little crow was coming out of the kitchen with flour on her face—she might have just been a disservice. After seeing me, this silly bird immediately rushed towards me with its arms flapping as usual. I opened my hand with a smile—then the little crow jumped straight over my arm and jumped at the girl who was being molested by Miss Lin. The latter made a puff and was knocked into a puddle of fluid by the little crow—it is said that this thing is an elemental creature formed by arcane energy, but how I look at it, I think it is actually a piece of jelly.
"Master! Jelly! I ate it!" Mai Diwen happily hugged the arcane bean that was trying to restore its shape, and had already bitten down before I could stop it. Her face turned black, but she didn't realize it, she was still chewing and muttering, "It tastes a little numb, it's not good...it's not strawberry... Mom! There's electric-flavored pudding here!"
An Weina floated out of the kitchen holding the frying spoon, and saw that the silly bird was holding a large group of electric arcane energy body and looking for the place to lower its mouth. Suddenly, several translucent ghost figures floated out of its body in fright. , then rushed up and pulled the little crow out: "This is not edible!"
The arcane bean that was bitten by the little crow seemed to react at this time, it swayed blankly in place twice, and then Shi Shi ran into the shadow beside the sofa to repair its wound: judging from this Well, the self-healing ability of elemental creatures does seem to be a little stronger than the self-discipline machines on the technological side... although the current focus is not here.
I brought this oddly shaped gadget home for Qianqian to play with, but I didn’t expect it to be quite popular with my family. Even Viska poked it twice out of curiosity—although it is also Xiling Apostle, but she was a special case who was confused back then, and she only had units on the technology side, so I am afraid she is not very familiar with Arcane Douding.
As for Qianqian—she ran back to the room immediately after seeing Arcane Douding just now, and she didn’t go up to poke this novel thing immediately. I was really curious what new ideas she had, but after a while After that, she jumped down from the stairs in three or two steps, holding her Brazilian turtle carefully in her hand...
Brazilian tortoise, pawn. At the age of two and a half, he died of a large area of arcane ablation all over his body...
When Lilina was busy resurrecting the unlucky Brazilian turtle, Qianqian said with a frustrated and distressed face: "I thought it was full of water... I was going to put the two tropical fish in Lilina's house... "
"It would be better if you put those two unlucky things." Lilina buttoned the carapace of the revived Brazilian tortoise, carefully shoveling off the burnt parts, "Those two are not tropical fish, they are A new species cultivated by the Goddess. She originally wanted to make two Bahamuts, but somehow ended up with two tropical fish. Those two tropical fish can survive in an arcane environment... "
I rubbed my shallow hair helplessly: "Forget it. Blame me for not stopping you in time..."
But I want to say more - who would have thought that this girl would suddenly think that a slime can raise bastards in her body! And this thing is not a slime! And the Brazilian tortoise is not a bastard! Those who only know how to poke around or make the other person turn into a bicycle after seeing the slime are weak compared to Qianqian's thinking jump ability!
Sagina finally couldn't help leaning over while no one was paying attention, and whispered to me: "Is your house usually so lively?"
"Ah. You don't even know how big our family is," I pointed at Qianqian who was studying how to put soda cans in Arcane Douding's stomach, "and now she is the only main force left, and there is another one who is more noisy She was fooled by her mother and left, otherwise the world would be turned upside down now."
Sagina stuck out her tongue: "It's really different from what I imagined..."
I roughly know what Sagina imagined. She probably thought that when she went to eat at the imperial emperor's house, she must see a magnificent palace covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters. Walk in the middle, and then push open the gate. Inside, there is a row of butlers on the left and a row of maids on the right. The emperor's family sits on a pure gold throne half a kilometer away. There is a twenty-jin crown on the head. Before speaking, seven or eight etiquette officials will tell you about the royal etiquette and the eighty honors and eighty shame of the empire. Then burn incense, bathe and change clothes to prepare for dinner. Find a big beautiful girl who strengthens the company to dance around the table. This meal starts at 7:30 and can be eaten until breakfast the next day... This is basically how the royal life in Sagina's head should be.
She must be killed and would never have imagined that she was in our territory. The first dish at the emperor’s house was stewed pork vermicelli, and the noise of a group of princesses eating was comparable to that of cattle scrambling for slots—for two pieces of meat, Lilina and Xiaodeng could fight on the spot...
Of course, Sagina and the others knew about our family when they were in the mother continent, but the former probably didn't expect us to be like this at home.
An Weena and Saeko quickly served a large table of dishes, and greeted everyone to sit down. Sagina and Sona were puzzled by novelty from the beginning. Up to now, they have accepted this kind of setting which is different from what they imagined at the beginning, and to be honest-this kind of atmosphere makes the two half-dragon girls from poor background feel a little more relaxed.
The only thing that makes them a little nervous now is that Lin is sitting opposite them. The spiritual sense of race instinct makes the two of them a little bit reluctant to let go. Lilina even exaggeratedly placed Ding Dong in front of her eyes, clasped her hands together: "Thank you, Goddess Give me pork stew vermicelli…”
So Sagina and Sona were stunned for a moment. They didn't know if this was the standard etiquette for believers to eat. They looked hesitantly at the Dragon God girl across the table. It was bought by Saeko…”
I quickly coughed twice: "Ahem... eat!"
The two half-dragon girls don't know how to use chopsticks, and it's impossible to carry tableware with them when they go out. Fortunately, they are still used to using earthen tableware with no technical content such as knives and forks, so they didn't make a joke about it. This is the first time Sagina tasted the craft of a ghost maid, and she exclaimed as soon as she took the first bite: "Ah, this is delicious! What is this golden thing?"
I looked up and said, "It's made of eggs, and it will turn golden brown after frying."
"Egg...egg..." Sona's complexion suddenly became subtle, and the corners of her mouth were a little wet, "It feels so strange..."
"Eh... you don't eat eggs?" My sister asked curiously.
Sona blushed: "Half-dragons are born from eggs..."
Everyone: "..."
"Although there is no taboo against eating eggs, it's just that we generally don't eat them very much," Saina added. It seemed that she had no problem with the food on the table at all. "About one-third of the half-dragon people don't like eggs very much, and the rest don't feel much. Sona happens to be in that third."
I understood immediately, and then pointed to the little crow who was concentrating on picking soybeans from the plate to eat: "She doesn't eat eggs, but she can't recognize them as long as they are made into dishes. In the final analysis, it is a psychological problem. Hmm , Sagina. Are you unwell?"
I found that Sagina has been sitting dishonestly since just now, twisting and turning on the chair. At first, I thought she was not used to the relatively high chairs on the earth (in fact, it was to take care of some short wax gourds at home. Let them experience the feeling of reaching the table without a stack of books), but now Sagina's face is getting weirder and weirder.
"That..." Sagina was a little embarrassed, "Is there a chair without a backrest? The tail... is numb."
Silently, I noticed Sagina's back. A big tail was stuck straight up against her back because there was no place to put it, and the tip of the tail was innocently dangling above the half-dragon girl's head... Well, there was a bow tied to the tip of her tail!
"Oh, wait." An Weena got up and moved two chairs without backrests from the wall, "Sorry, I didn't expect it at first... These two chairs are just in use."
I recognized the two chairs, one from Yakumo Blue and the other from Cirno, neither of which had backs for various obvious reasons. I have to say that luckily both of them have gone home to visit relatives (workers). Otherwise, I don’t know how many follow-up situations have been revealed after this meal, but there are already many situations that have emerged now!
This meal was full of ups and downs, with frequent occurrences, and very unique. It’s full of imperial features—I have to say, it’s not easy to gather such a large group of creatures that are more or less different from humans to have a meal at the same table. Sometimes I look around while eating. Can find a sense of accomplishment: How do you say I maintain the three views of earthlings among this group of people
After dinner, Sagina and the others originally wanted to rush back to Xinxiang, but in the end they were dragged by their respective gods to stay. Lin wanted to take this opportunity to check the integration of Sagina and Dragon God. . But the little crow simply wanted to find someone to play with. Seeing the situation, the three of them don't have to go back tonight, so my elder sister and An Weina went to the second floor to prepare a room for them, and I watched with great interest as Qianqian and the others bullied the slime there...
Qianqian is trying to screw a faucet on the latter, and it can be seen that she maintains an unusually firm misunderstanding of this soft "fluid" creature.
"By the way, do you want to give this little guy a name?" Lin Xue was also very interested in that Arcane Bean Ding, she patted the latter's body, "Why don't you just call him Xizhilang, it looks like jelly of."
I feel that this name is very visual, and I was stunned for a moment before I remembered that it was the association that Raven 001 had after being beaten up by Vega. In an instant, I didn't know whether I should tell the truth to the eldest lady...
But in the end, Arcane Douding won the title of "Lang of Xi" and was promoted to Qianqian's No. 76 pet. The top ones include Qianqian's Brazilian turtle, Pikachu, and two self-discipline machines. People, a unicorn, a mini Sadako in the basement, Xiao Hei who passed away more than ten years ago but is still living in shallow memories, little Bubbles, a little crow, and a lot of weird things in Ding Dong's laboratory The creature, this girl's spare time life is really colorful.
Just taking this opportunity, I told everyone about the current situation of the Celestial City, as well as the matter of Bella Villa, because according to the temperament of Qianqian, Lin Xue and other lazy people, they themselves would definitely not have any problems. I don't have time to ask about these things.
Qianqian finally understood one thing: "Oh, so this is not a slime."
Lin Xue is somewhat more reliable than Qianqian, at least after listening to some knowledge on the mysterious side, she showed a look of contemplation, and soon had her own thoughts: "Hey, Mu Mu, have you found something? Thing—things on the mysterious side seem to be more in line with the power form of me, Qianqian, and sister Chen Qian?"
I nodded as a matter of course: "Of course, the three of you were apostles of the mystic department in your previous life, and my sister is also the number one conjurer in the empire."
"Do you still remember a project that Tavel has been working on?" Lin Xue squatted on the armrest of the sofa with her bare feet, and her upper body fell towards me. "She tried to use imperial equipment to replicate the special powers of us. The energy-stealing device imitated based on your power, and the parsec device that is still experimental equipment, as for my prophecy ability and Chen Qianjie's curse ability, there is still no way to imitate it... "
I reached out to catch the mischievous young lady (she is not afraid of me really daring not to pick it up—although I really dare not), thoughtfully: "You mean..."
"Perhaps the reason for Tavel's slow progress is that the field is wrong. It will be easier to reproduce our power with the technology of the mysterious department. Recently, she has established several joint teams. Xiling technicians and mystics work together to study those Mystic technology or something, let her give those slow-moving projects to the new team for a try," Lin Xue said, "Look, our biggest problem now is that the advanced technology of the mysterious department cannot be directly applied. The apostle will not be able to evolve for a while, and a high-level apostle like me and Qianqian, that is, the level of the three hundred commanders, may not be born again for many years, but if the existing research in Tavel Basically, turn part of our power into mass-produced equipment and apply it to battleships and even individual soldiers... "
—So, I saw a bright future. RS
