Cen Qiyun was busy in the kitchen, humming a light tune. In her words, eating those synthetic rations was a soulless act.
Meng Yi felt embarrassed to just sit there and wait for dinner, so he helped prepare the food in the kitchen. Seeing that she seemed to be in a good mood, he casually asked:
"What's going on with the Penal Department? How can punishment make you more motivated?"
Cen Qiyun's face suddenly fell.
"Not only does the torturer torture the body, he also tortures the mind. There are some special magic arrays involved." She didn't seem to want to say more.
Meng Yi nodded and focused on washing the vegetables, which should be very expensive.
There are some "druids" in the agricultural area. This is the nickname Meng Yi just gave them. They are some people who believe in gods related to plants, agriculture, etc.
He recalled what Li Hao and the others had said yesterday. He turned his head to look at Cen Qiyun, who was picking vegetables, and asked, "By the way, have you heard of the God-Favoured Ones?"
Cen Qiyun shook his head and said, "No, where did you hear that? It seems to be a similar title to the Divine Grace."
Definitely different.
Meng Yi put the washed vegetables aside, wiped the water droplets from his hands, and frowned in thought.
What did Suo Yi say?
If you are a person favored by God, the best outcome is to have one more person on the Supreme Arbitration Committee.
This tone... is it just?
You should know that the Supreme Arbitration Council is the highest ruling body of mankind today. It is said that each member is an extremely powerful divine being, who can destroy a city by himself.
It seems that those favored by God have a lot to say. The Judgment Bureau has been lenient with him just because he suspected that he was one of the people favored by God.
Meng Yi remained in a trance-like state, his hands unconsciously continuing to prepare the dishes.
"What are you doing?"
Cen Qiyun looked at him dissatisfiedly, "Why are you so extravagant?"
She pointed at the celery leaves Meng Yi had plucked and said distressedly, "Why are you throwing these away when you can eat them?"
Meng Yi smiled awkwardly, how could he understand these things?
"I really don't understand you. Come on, come on, get out of the way. These things are very expensive!"
Cen Qiyun pushed him out of the kitchen without any courtesy.
Meng Yi could only lean against the kitchen door, looking at the busy Cen Qiyun with boredom.
The early morning sun shone through the window onto the faces of the two people, and along with the sizzling sound, the aroma of cooking began to fill the surroundings.
Meng Yi had an illusion, as if he had not traveled through time at all. It was an ordinary morning, and the two of them were busy in the kitchen under the sunshine...
boom--
There was a loud noise outside the window, and the two of them couldn't help but turn their heads to look outside.
Layer upon layer of blue ripples appeared in the air, and the electromagnetic barrier covering the city was revealed again.
Cen Qiyun shook her head. "Okay, let's eat. After dinner, we'll go back to the inner city. I'll buy you some clothes while I'm there."
Meng Yi's clothes were now in tatters after last night's battle.
He calmly touched the two thousand nine hundred and ninety-two yuan on his body, thinking that it should be enough to buy clothes.
To be fair, Cen Qiyun is a good cook, but when Meng Yi learned from her that the three dishes in front of him would cost about five yuan, he couldn't help but be shocked.
The "druids" in the agricultural area make quite a lot of money.
Cen Qiyun said while eating:
"We have to work hard to earn money for God's temple. Generally speaking, those who are blessed by God are not special."
She gave an example: "If you are good at medicine, farming, formations, or even torture people, you can find some corresponding positions."
"If you were like me, we'd either be working as laborers in factories or fighting in the wilderness."
Meng Yi wasn't surprised. He had actually been prepared for this. He asked curiously, "What does the wilderness look like?"
Ordinary people kept their distance from the wilderness and would not set foot in it unless they wanted to perform a new sacrificial ceremony.
In Meng Yi's memory, he had entered the wilderness before in order to communicate with new gods, but that was around the city and he did not go deep at all.
Cen Qiyun shook her head, "I haven't either."
"Um?"
This surprised Meng Yi. "Weren't you also a divinely blessed person before?"
Cen Qiyun stretched out her chopsticks and pointed at the mechanical creature in the corner of the living room.
