Chapter 223 I will protect my sister!
Since they were going out, and to a very far place, Zuo Shan decided to buy her and Lele two decent outfits to dress them up a bit.
After all, clothes make the man, and when you meet a stranger, your first impression will definitely be based on your appearance.
She doesn't seek to be glamorous, but she also doesn't want people to treat them like beggars.
When I went to the All-Powerful Supermarket, I found that the clothing styles there were really terrible. They were either dark and outdated in color or gaudy and tacky.
Forget it, let's wait until we get there to do the shopping. I'm sure the aesthetic sense in District 41 is better than in District 48.
January is the third month of extreme cold. On January 7th, 8th, and 9th, for three consecutive days, both Zuo Shan's and Pandora's watches received the same message:
"Dear Ms. Zuo Shan (Pandole), hello!"
You have been invited to participate in the 106th annual Sea Hunting Carnival, and the official organizers will send a large aircraft carrier manufactured by Wellington Aircraft Manufacturing Company to your area.
Please be sure to arrive at the central square of your district before 12:00 noon on January 10th, 33838 of the Gorentian Interstellar Calendar. Please present your invitation at that time to board the spaceship for free.
After the ship arrives at its destination, staff will guide you to the designated hotel. The first three days (January 11, 12, and 13) will be free of charge for food and lodging, and the following seven days (January 14 to January 20) will be discounted by 50% for food and lodging.
On January 21st, you will be returning on the same aircraft carrier for free. Have a pleasant journey and a fruitful trip!
Zuo Shan had participated in many competitions on Blue Star and was already used to the various information from airlines. However, for someone like Pan Duole, who lived in a remote area and had never traveled far, this information at least prevented him from being completely clueless.
She had been in a state of excitement for the past few days, sometimes thinking about how to hunt on this trip, and sometimes dreaming about how magnificent the sea must be.
Zuo Shan had consulted Linghu Yi beforehand, and he said that it was acceptable to bring small, gentle pets that wouldn't easily hurt people.
As for children, there are no relevant regulations, so they should be allowed to come along. Anyway, the ship is big enough that it won't be full.
Since it was a rare free trip, Zuo Shan decided to take her whole family along, treating it as a sightseeing tour. As for how many mutated sea monsters they could hunt, she didn't really care.
Mao Li's energy has almost recovered, but in order to ensure some of the more practical functions, he does not plan to return to his original form for the time being.
For example, the testing of shielding instruments is one such example.
He can now not only become invisible, but also block the detection of various electronic detectors, and interfere with the detectors' detection of Xiao Bao's mutated beast level.
For example, he could disguise Xiao Bao's ability level as Level 1, so as not to attract excessive attention from others to Xiao Bao.
After all, many superhumans will bring their contracted beasts to this hunting carnival, and no one will pay attention to first-tier mutated beasts.
On the morning of January 10th, it was only 10 o'clock when Lele was already restless, urging Zuo Shan to leave as soon as possible.
In such cold weather, even though the daytime temperature is relatively higher than the nighttime temperature, it is still more than -50 degrees Celsius. Zuo Shan doesn't want to freeze.
Seeing how anxious she was, I directed her to check her luggage, boil water and fill the thermos, as well as the baby carrier, stroller, formula, bottles, and spare clothes.
After dawdling for an hour, Lele was so anxious that her forehead was almost sweating. Zuo Shan then pretended to have just remembered and went to look for the sanitary napkins that Aunt Zhou had given her last time.
Actually, her body was still in the recovery stage and she hadn't had her period yet, but Lele was already over twelve years old, and she didn't know if the child would happen to have her first period.
With forty minutes remaining, Zuo Shan finally couldn't bear to continue tormenting the little girl who was in a rage, so she took the baby and went out.
The central square was only a little over a kilometer from their home, and since both of them were superhumans, it only took them 12 minutes to get there.
Then they discovered that there were hundreds of people waiting there, it was incredibly lively.
However, upon closer inspection, a problem was discovered: forty or fifty people were in the center of the square, and some of them were looking up at the sky, seemingly waiting for an aircraft carrier.
The other hundreds of people were scattered around the square, some chatting, some rubbing their hands and stamping their feet, as if they were there to watch the excitement.
Zuo Shan led Pan Duole toward the center of the square. As they got closer, they saw about a dozen familiar faces, all of whom were members of the Fearless Mercenary Group.
For example, there's Deputy Leader Kang Zhenghao, Ding Yi's uncle Ding Tai, and Song Bo, who escaped with him during the last collection.
Judging from their attire and demeanor, most of the remaining individuals should be administrators from District 48. It's unclear which department they belong to, but almost all of them are Level 3 ability users.
Those mercenary groups were all third-tier ability users.
It seems that those below the fourth rank are almost all sending out invitations at the upper limit.
The two sisters were dressed very plainly, unlike the other people waiting there who were dressed in finery. When Kang Zhenghao saw them, he greeted them with a smile: "So early in the morning, are you here to join in the fun and see the large aircraft carrier?"
"It's not about looking, it's about riding." Zuo Shan pulled out two invitation cards and waved them at him.
Kang Zhenghao's eyes widened in surprise: "Tell me, where did you get these two invitations?"
"It was a gift from a friend," Zuo Shan said.
"Your friend is too generous. He gave such a valuable thing to a zero-level ability user like you. Many second-level ability users in our group want to get it, but none of them are qualified," Kang Zhenghao complained.
"I broke through to the first level a long time ago," Zuo Shan said, rolling his eyes.
"Even a first-tier one is weak! It's a pity it's too late to replace him now. If I had known you could get two invitations, I would have definitely spent a lot of money to buy them!" Kang Zhenghao said.
"Sorry, I'm not selling! Even if I'm only a first-tier cultivator, it would be good for me to broaden my horizons," Zuo Shan said.
“That’s true. If I had gotten this invitation when I was at the first level, I definitely wouldn’t have been willing to sell it to anyone else,” Kang Zhenghao said.
As the two were talking, Ding Tai and Song Bo also came over.
"Left Fan, I heard it will be very chaotic once the hunt begins. You'd better stick close to us to avoid getting bumped into," Song Bo said.
"If you ask me, you'd better stay far away and just watch the excitement from the beach. Otherwise, with your skinny arms and legs, any second-tier sea beast could easily drag you into an ice hole!" Kang Zhenghao said.
"I will protect my sister," Pan Duole said, straightening her small frame as she stood in front of the left fan.
"You're just a little kid like you?" Kang Zhenghao said disdainfully.
"Deputy Commander Kang, don't underestimate my little apprentice. Give her ten minutes, and she can peel your skin off from head to toe without even a scratch!"
A familiar voice suddenly came from behind them. Zuo Shan and Pan Duole turned around together and saw Master Liu staring indifferently at Kang Zhenghao.
"Master Liu, your joke isn't funny at all!" Kang Zhenghao said with an awkward laugh.
Their Fearless Mercenary Group had very close business ties with Liu Lin, the owner of the weapon-refining workshop. Even as the deputy leader, he dared not offend him casually.
“I never joke with people,” Liu Lin said.
Kang Zhenghao and his mercenaries were dumbfounded. They had been listening intently to the gossip when Kang Zhenghao was chatting with Zuo Shan earlier.
They were all guessing that the reason the Zuo sisters were able to get invitations was most likely because they had pleased some high-ranking administrator. The administrator was so pleased that he didn't care how incompetent they were and gave them two invitations as a treat.
Unexpectedly, Master Liu actually stood up for this little girl.
It was only then that they noticed that the little girl Pandora had a very strong power fluctuation, and that she was actually a third-tier fire-type power user!
Then everyone looked at Kang Zhenghao, the meaning of which was very clear: why not recruit such a talented little girl into their Fearless Mercenary Group?
Kang Zhenghao naturally understood what they meant, but inwardly he cursed, "You don't know anything! This little girl is only ten years old and she's already at the third level. Their Fearless Mercenary Group is not worthy of inviting such a genius to join!"
Perhaps the person who sent them the invitations had already planned it all out. This time, they went to participate in the hunt to show the leaders of those large mercenary groups their strength.
Who knows, after this, the two sisters might soar to great heights and completely leave this small place, District 48.
