Chapter 46

Xiaoman gave up in the first match of the ranking competition among the top six, and sat firmly in last place, allowing others to play.

The atmosphere in the stadium became increasingly heated, with people discussing the contestants everywhere. However, Xiaoman was leisurely touring Flora City with Lielie outside the stadium.

On this day, Xiaoman was selecting flower seeds in a beautiful little flower shop, while Lielie was having fun with a few colorful puppies who had just learned to run in front of the shop.

Xiaoman didn't take note of the simple instructions given by the shop owner, because she was going to bring them to her teacher. Even though these beautiful varieties were specially selected and bred, and each had its own requirements for the environment, they were definitely not as difficult to grow as herbs, and Xiaoman believed that her teacher could handle them easily.

At worst, there is still Belu. Xiaoman had seen it before. He just poked the tree casually, and then the sick and almost leafless tree stretched out like a ball of cloth soaked in water, and soon it was covered with fresh green, so moist that even tender branches sprouted on the trunk near the ground.

It's a miraculous skill.

Obviously, the Dragon King's personality, complexion, and wealth all make people think that he controls metal.

Bernaludos's answer to this is: "But gold is nothing special. Dragons do not need to obtain it. It is wealth, strength, longevity and vitality. In short, everything that you consider precious and good belongs to us at the moment of conception."

He looked calm as he said this, and his outstanding appearance that completely conformed to the world's aesthetic standards, coupled with his indifference to wealth and his ability to control it effortlessly, made people believe in the truthfulness of his words even more.

And this is actually the truth. It is a symbol of the dragon race's innate high status. Yuan Qian used the standard template, and except for the adjustment of appearance, it was basically unchanged.

——When the first piece of gold in this world was extracted and attracted the so-called precious definition with its brilliant luster, the dragon clan had the right to dominate it. The color of the hair and the ability to give vitality are the same as the "sun", the color of the pupils comes from the vast earth and everything contained under it, and the power to see the essence of the soul and even transcend life and death comes from the "moon". This is the dragon clan of this world.

In terms of their status, they are the eldest sons of the world. Unlike the beasts who are well cared for and governed, the dragons are the eldest brothers who completely dominate the younger ones, and are qualified to make every individual in the tribe strong and lasting.

It's a pity that because they are too closely connected, they will run into problems with the Star Gods, just like the Sirens and other races that were closely related to nature and became extinct first. So there is a reason why the dragons disappeared. Bernaludus is still active today because he took advantage of a loophole, and it will be easy for him to withdraw in the future.

Only the beastmen have the qualification to remain safe until the last moment, because they are like babies who are given a pacifier and held in their parents' arms when a natural disaster strikes.

Fortunately, Xiaoman is not a member of the beast tribe, and he is not a good baby who is blindfolded and coaxed to sleep by deceiving others that the world is safe and sound.

She is the beheading officer designated by the Star God who is qualified to kill Him. Even if she is in imminent danger, she is naturally qualified to be treated equally by the King of the Dragon Clan.

The Dragon King walked into the small flower shop with great strides, the tip of his horn less than a palm's distance from the roof.

He met Xiaoman's gaze and turned sideways without saying a word, revealing a frightened young fox with gray fur and a gray face. It was unknown what he had encountered on the way here with Bernaludos.

The messenger forced a smile and trembled as he handed over an exquisite letter. He said with an expression that was uglier than crying, "Dear warrior Pan, this is what the city lord ordered me to deliver to you..."

Mayor Flora? Xiao Man was a little confused. Although she planned to kill him when she could see him during the award ceremony, they were still strangers now. If she wanted to recruit other female contestants, there were three of them in the top five, and not all of them had complicated backgrounds, so why did she invite the last one who looked so unmotivated?

She silently recalled whether she had brought the emergency medicine to relieve the poison with her, and then took the envelope calmly.

The messenger was overjoyed and didn't want to say anything more. She said goodbye immediately. In part, it was out of trust in the city lord. Who would refuse an invitation from such a noble, elegant and powerful young beauty? It was enough to receive the letter. She would definitely go to the appointment.

Xiaoman had no scruples about the target person, so he opened the letter on the spot, took out the invitation letter and took a look at it.

"...She invited me to visit the garden tonight." Xiao Man said to Bernardus. After all, she was not with the teacher now. Although this person was a little strange, at least he was assigned by the teacher and could be regarded as an elder who could be trusted and give reference opinions.

Bernaludos took the gilded card with a sweet fragrance and scanned the content.

Oh, after removing the useless rhetoric, it really is like this, that is, Ellyretna sincerely wants to invite "Pan" to her garden tonight to watch the buds bloom.

What is this? Is this the otherworldly version of "My cat can do a backflip"? Ms. Ellyretna Flora, you are truly unfathomable... Yuan Qian had mixed feelings, but on the surface he just returned the card calmly and looked at Xiao Man, with an expression that didn't even bother him about whether she was going or not.

"Should I go?" Xiao Man asked him for his opinion. They both knew that the meaning was "Should we do it tonight?"

"Whatever you want to do." Bernardus said as he left the small flower shop which was totally unsuitable for him, as if he had really just met the messenger by chance and brought people here.

The owner then weakly handed over a few packaged bags of flower seeds, seeming very nervous, but after Xiaoman paid the bill, his hands did not shake at all as he counted the money.

"What do you think the female city lord is thinking?" Yuan Qian was puzzled.

[She's as sexy as Xiaoman, she's classy!] The adjutant is still fine-tuning the two new characters. While keeping their temperaments unchanged, he may have repeatedly adjusted the length and direction of a strand of hair. There are also many adjustments that you can't see without looking at the data, such as the elasticity of the ahoge and the ups and downs of the finger joints. Perhaps he's obsessed with perfectionism for some reason, which has caused his chat replies to become even more messy.

“…”

Yuan Qian chose to open the forum to look for analysis posts.

It's a pity that the progress of the comics is not in sync with reality. Readers who only know about the situation at the end of the previous chapter are still unaware of the new development that Elerytna sent an invitation letter to Xiaoman. Even the secondary works that pair the two of them reveal a sense of mission that appearing in the same frame means getting married. In other words, the information in the original work is still at the stage where even readers with a natural keen eye for paper people can't find much overlap.

As he was flipping through the pages, he began to wonder, and then he poked at the adjutant who had already clicked save and was doing nothing:

"Are you saying it's my illusion? Why do I feel like all the perverted thoughts of the readers are directed at No. 2? Is No. 3 more likely to get into trouble?"

The readers who provide an endless supply of emotional points are lovable, but they always have a lot of amazing thoughts about the introverted, gentle and normal Lazarus, but when it comes to Bernaludus, most of them are simply healing contrast cuteness or handsomeness, which seems very strange.

[You just realized it.] The adjutant complained, [It’s not the first time that humans like to strip decent people’s clothes… The really arrogant handsome guy is safer, maybe because everyone is getting used to it, so it doesn’t seem so special.]

"But I remember you were wearing a lot of clothes too?" Yuan Qian said.

"It doesn't matter. When the boss switches between frequent outbursts and messing around and losing hope and lying on the ground pretending to be dead all day, everyone will think that he should be more serious." The mentally ill boss himself said this in a relaxed and happy manner.

"..." This is really a method that only you can use. It is of no reference value. However, the second character, the lich teacher, has been offline for a long time, so even if you want to use it, there is no chance. Besides, the current character is perfect or just right, and there is no need to add anything else.

Yuan Qian finally chose to hypnotize himself: being spoiled is also a way to gain emotional value, so how can it not be a gain? So it’s not a loss!

After all, as long as he looked at the details of another character besides Winchester that changed with each passing day, and thought that this shell would be matched with the core of Mr. Adjutant, Yuan Qian's heart began to be uneasy... This feeling should be very similar to that of a relative of his who is a class teacher. The reputation of a genius and naughty kid in her class can be said to have been so great that the relative even missed the New Year's party because of his various means.

Yuan Qian felt that although Mr. Adjutant had lost more than half of his time, he was able to match him in the remaining time. Therefore, he felt as if he saw a bleak future. It was so terrible that he would feel uneasy if he didn't accumulate more emotional points.

As he was thinking about this, he saw a post that was pushed to the top with the title "Private Personification of Star God".

...Yuan Qian, who had personally seen His chaotic and distorted appearance in the prophetic spell, clicked on this post with a strange feeling and found that the painting was surprisingly good.

But even the oversized Starlight Old Horse in the original work who has no idea what's going on and acts on instinct has to be transformed into a blond, childlike, vegetative sleeping handsome man, and join the modern campus setting luxury package as a mascot principal. He also has to turn over in his sleep and show a little bit of his belly to everyone. The paper man is really having a hard time.

This private setting is quite reasonable. Maybe the author is thinking this way. Will it eventually become an official setting? There is nothing wrong with that. It's just that Yuan Qian will feel a little strange when he sees it.

[I think he should be overly doted on.] The adjutant said, [He is too doting on me. He even has to examine the people who come to help him again and again. Is this an instinctive desire to control me or something else? It's so scary.]

"He is in a daze and can't wake up. I can't show my love to him even if I want to," Yuan Qian said.

[Yeah...I can't wake up. How can I be 'awake' without wisdom?]

[Then you can just be His 'spokesperson'. He cannot refute it, so any interpretation you make is His will in their eyes, isn't it?]

"That's true, but you make it sound like we're bullying others." Yuan Qian had already adapted to it a lot. Not only was he not shocked, he even accepted the comment and continued to complain.

[What's wrong with bullying him?] The adjutant shouted, [He made a 17-year-old girl lose her mother and he will die soon. Meeting us is his retribution!]

Yuan Qian thought of his reaction when he knew about the mission Xiaoman was born with. His rare seriousness brought out a strong sense of oppression. He still remembered the suppressed anger and coldness. He thought to himself that he was really a vengeful devil.

"I'm just here to help. Retribution is within your business scope." Yuan Qian corrected.

[So I caught a few nightmares and cooked them in a pot... Everyone likes stewing. It's worth a reference.]

Indeed, although the Star God is an extremely large creature with all kinds of strange synaptic organs and acquired deformations on his body, if you don't look closely, but if you have to generalize it, it is indeed closer to a creature like a horse, even though the hooves that carry the world are probably not four, or not always four.

In short, that's why they sometimes make jokes when they chat, and his shape-shifting mane and other features are highly consistent with the nightmares in fantasy works - but this is not a reason for you to harm wild nightmares! The nightmare horses are very innocent.

Yuan Qian’s complaints were not sophisticated enough and his energy was exhausted. He began to think about how big a pot would be needed to stew the Star God.
