Chapter 284 Irene is very motivated!
Hu Li carried her left and right bodyguards on each shoulder and went downstairs. She sat at the dining table and waited obediently for her meal. Irene stood at the dining table, staring at the two chickens on the fox girl's shoulders.
The two pairs of cross-eyed men stared at the little doll on the table, both sides exuding an aura of equal intelligence.
"I think they have bad intentions towards me," Irene said suddenly. "There's something evil in their eyes."
"Impossible, Boiled and Salted are so well behaved!" Hu Li immediately said seriously, "They usually just sleep in my tail, and never fight when I let them out..."
“It’s obvious that they fainted after eating all the shit you fed them!” Irene stared. Although no one could explain how the two chicks were raised to this style by Hu Li, the reason behind it was obviously related to the nine-tailed fox’s messy “magic arts” and the “spiritual things” she had created. When she thought of this, she couldn’t hold back. “It’s a blessing for these two things that they are so lucky. You fed them for three days and they were in shock for two and a half days, but they are still alive today…”
Hu Li was slightly startled when he heard this, then he started to think about it, and after a moment he clapped his hands: "So that's what's going on! I was wondering why they always sleep for such a long time after eating."
Irene: “…Is it really three days of shock and two and a half days?!”
"It's difficult for spiritual beasts to transform into mortals, not to mention that they are originally poultry, so it's normal for them to have some difficulties and obstacles." Hu Li waved his hand, looking quite confident. "Anyway, I will protect them no matter what. I tell you, I'm pretty good at raising spiritual beasts and birds. I was the team leader of the small animal raising group in our class. I was the one who fed the two black-winged sparrows in the back mountain of our school..."
At this point, she raised her shoulders and turned to look at her two guardians: "Right, I took good care of you, okay?"
So Baiqie and Yanbao nodded modestly.
Irene was surprised: "Can these two flat-haired beasts really understand?! They look so stupid..."
As soon as she finished speaking, the boiled chicken and the salt-baked chicken flew into the air, swooped down and pecked the little doll on the head, knocking it onto the table.
Irene didn't react at all. After rolling on the table, she flew into a rage and jumped up to fight with the two chickens, shouting as she beat them: "I told you these two guys have bad intentions towards me!"
Hu Li was also startled. He quickly stood up and rescued Irene while emphasizing the fact: "But it was you who scolded them first..."
Yu Sheng had just finished cooking in the kitchen when he heard the noise coming from the restaurant. At first he thought it was just the usual quarrel between Irene and Hu Li, but halfway through he felt something was not right, so he quickly turned off the fire and ran out. Then he saw the little doll being pressed on the table by Bai Qie and pecked on the head, while Hu Li was trying hard to grab the salt-baked doll and stuff it into his tail...
Yu Sheng was stunned: "..."
After finally getting the chaos under control and figuring out the whole story, Yu Sheng could only look speechlessly at the puppet that was angrily fixing its hair: "So, you scolded them first, and then started fighting with the chickens - and you didn't fight them in the end?"
Irene jumped up and down in anger: "Don't emphasize the last one!"
Then she added, "What do you mean by having never fought a chicken before? A good chicken carries auspicious clouds when it flies up, and carries lightning bolts when it dives down - it's hard to fight against that thing, okay!"
Yu Sheng felt very amazed at that time.
"I, I will definitely discipline them when I get back." Hu Li saw that Yu Sheng didn't say anything and thought that he was angry, so he lowered his head and said, "They have just started to transform and don't know many rules yet."
"It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal," Yu Sheng waved his hands cheerfully, "Eat first, eat first, I'll go serve the dishes."
Hu Li stood up instantly: "I'll go help!"
"Wait here," Yu Sheng pushed the fox girl back in an instant, "If you can't even get to the kitchen door with a plate of food, you have to come back and wash the dishes. I won't have to eat this meal if I ask you to serve the food..."
Hu Li's ears drooped: "Oh."
A moment later, the table was filled with sumptuous food.
Although Irene doesn't have to eat, she always takes a seat when the meal starts. At this time, she stood at the table with her eyes wide open: "Wow - what day is today? The food is so good!?"
"The Secret Service has transferred the money - the reward for discovering the 'City in the Fog' and the reward for rescuing the citizens," Yu Sheng said happily, "and I just received news that the resettlement subsidy for 'Fairy Tale' has also been approved. However, it will take some time for the money to arrive, after all, the amount is quite large, and some procedures still need to go through the board of directors... Anyway, we won't be short of money in the future, so we have to celebrate today."
"Okay," Irene clapped her hands happily, but soon realized, "Wait, when did you go buy the vegetables?"
"I bought whatever I needed from the market when I was cooking just now," Yu Sheng said casually, "and this big pot of rice was taken directly from the Secret Service canteen - I also took this pot from their window just now, and I have to return it later."
Irene was stunned and managed to utter after a long while: "...Your skill of opening the door is really perfect."
Hu Li didn't have time to comment, her head was already in the pot at that moment.
Fortunately, Yu Sheng was quick enough to serve a bowl of rice in advance, otherwise this pot might not be enough for Hu Li alone.
When the meal was almost over (when Hu Li started to lick the bowl one by one), Irene, who had been daydreaming for a long time at the table, suddenly said, "By the way, Yu Sheng, please make me another body."
Yu Sheng was originally quietly enjoying the heartwarming scene of the fox fairy licking the bowl at home, but he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this: "Ah?"
"Didn't you say before that you would build me a new body when you had the chance? You brought back so much good material from the Secret Service..."
"Uh, I did say that, but why did you suddenly think of it now?"
Irene said seriously: "Build one that is more powerful. If possible, build one of normal size."
Yu Sheng was shocked: "...Just because you've never fought with a chicken?!"
Irene's face was originally full of seriousness, but at this moment she couldn't hold it anymore, jumping up and down and pointing at Yu Sheng's nose: "Who told you it was because of this! Am I such a petty person in your heart!?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Yu Sheng was too embarrassed to nod directly, so he could only answer with a straight face and implicit words: "Yes."
"It's because I've never fought that C-type buckle!" The little puppet stared with anger, "It's shameful, so damn shameful! I have ball joints, but I've never fought a C-type buckle..."
Yu Sheng: "...Is this the key? And I remember that the 'artificial saint' didn't seem to have only C-shaped buckles on her body. It seemed to have a complex mechanical structure... For example, the self-destructing lid."
"You see, we both have similar grudges - I didn't fight, and you were tricked. Anyway, the root cause is that C-shaped buckle." Irene walked over and patted Yu Sheng's arm. "That thing is really dangerous. Even though you only encountered one, its combat power is stronger than many dangerous entities, and it can even be mass-produced on a small scale... What if you encounter it again next time? What if you encounter more than two? Or even... what if you encounter a guy more powerful than that C-shaped buckle in the future?"
The little doll had a rare serious look on its face, which even made Yu Sheng look serious.
"I always feel that sooner or later we will have to encounter more difficult enemies and difficult situations like this. The director of the Secret Service said that there are always problems around you... Of course I have no objection. I am happy to fool around with you, but I will be very unhappy if I can't beat you. I can't always open the door and run away or let you go up to deliver..."
Irene sat down cross-legged on the edge of the table, looked at Yu Sheng, then turned back to look at the nine-tailed fox who was concentrating on licking the bowl and didn't seem to care at all about what was being discussed here.
"Your body is getting stronger every day, and you are becoming more and more proficient in using those evil abilities. As for Hu Li, she is already very strong, and she learns very quickly. She has even created two Liaojis. Although the Liaojis are a bit unexpected, she is very good at fighting anyway, and she may become even better."
The little doll said this and pointed at himself.
"My body, made of rebar, is indeed very strong, but not strong enough. It only meets the requirement of survival on the battlefield. But when fighting with that C-type spike, my reaction speed and offensive ability are obviously not enough. Strictly speaking, I even have no offensive ability..."
Yu Sheng nodded: "That's right, your head is not even as long as the fingernails of that artificial saint."
Irene jumped up and hit Yusheng on the chin with her head: "Yusheng, you uncle!"
Yu Sheng suddenly let out an "Ah", startling Hu Li who was licking the bowl opposite him. Then he rubbed his chin and said, "Okay, okay, go ahead and tell me...ah, there's no need to say it. Anyway, I understand what you mean. Just build another fine-crafted body, right? To make up for the shortcomings in combat power."
“Yes,” Irene stood in front of Yu Sheng with her hands on her hips. Her eyes were determined as if she was determined to perish together with all the C-shaped dolls in the world. “This time, I will teach you to use a higher-level soul infusion ritual. We will use the best materials, as well as the best skeleton and filling materials, to fill in all the previous loopholes that may have caused the ritual to go wrong, and try to allow me to exert the power I should have. I tell you, I am really powerful. How could the real Alice doll be defeated by a fake mass-produced one made by a cultist…”
As he spoke, the little doll's resentment overflowed again. This time, Yu Sheng did not tease her anymore, but reached out and touched Irene's hair.
"Okay, since the Secret Service won't be able to come up with any results for a while, and we have nothing else to do... let's go build an Irene Pro Max!"
"…What a ridiculous name!"
