The shop owner was tall and strong. He stood next to the seated Xie Sen and put great pressure on him. Xie Sen waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, brother. I am an honest man and will never make fun of others!"
The boss looked him up and down, frowning: "Are you doing a live broadcast?"
"Ah?" Xie Sen was stunned by his sudden question, thinking that his boss's train of thought was too weird. "No, I just stopped by to have lunch."
"I see he is live streaming. Wasn't that video on Tik Tok very popular?"
"I think so!"
Xie Sen was bewildered. The diners were pointing at him and discussing animatedly. He pricked up his ears and listened for a few words. He understood why they suspected that he was broadcasting live.
It turned out that two days ago, a small anchor on the famous live broadcast platform Tik Tok in Xingcheng found a small restaurant to have lunch in order to attract attention. After the meal, he shouted to the boss - Boss, give me a plate of fruit after the meal. This sentence not only stunned the boss, but also made the audience laugh.
Xie Sen understood the reason, but he was even more confused. What was so funny about this?
"Check my personal bracelet to see if I'm live streaming!" The boss reached out to him.
Xie Sen used his fingerprint to open the ring and raised his hand generously: "You can check it as you like."
The boss quickly checked his bracelet and made sure he wasn't running any software or doing any live broadcasts. He looked better and patted him on the shoulder.
"Young man, don't joke around if you don't have money. If you want to eat rice, there's a high-end restaurant a hundred meters ahead. If you go early, you might be able to grab some."
Xie Sen's mouth twitched. Is there any inevitable connection between rice and high-end restaurants?
He raised his head and nodded, laughing: "Yeah, big brother is teaching me a lesson, big brother, you go and get busy," he said, pointing to the meat in the lunch box and gave a thumbs up, "Super delicious!"
The boss smiled again, said to come often, and went back to work.
Xie Sen did not dare to ask why there was only meat and no vegetables. He just finished eating the meat, drank a glass of water, and left the shop.
He checked his residence through his personal bracelet and took the shuttle back to the original owner's apartment.
The apartment was located in a relatively remote neighborhood, a two-story building with each floor about 70 square meters. He entered the door smoothly using his fingerprint.
After looking around, he sat on the sofa in the lobby and began to cram on relevant information about this world.
The planet he was on was called Brandt, a beast planet with three main cities: Sun City, Moon City, and Star City.
The ancestors of the Beast Star were wild beasts, which later evolved into orcs who could transform into humans. The orcs created a splendid civilization, and the predecessors of the three main cities were the three major tribes of the Orc era.
As time goes by, orcs can only exist in human form and can no longer transform into beasts.
Even if they cannot transform into beasts, they are still different from the people on Earth.
The Beastmen reach half adulthood at the age of sixteen and full adulthood at the age of eighteen. Generally speaking, they will awaken their contracted beasts before the age of sixteen. Historical books say that contracted beasts are gifts from the Beast God to his people.
When the contracted beast is awakened, the beast pattern of the corresponding contracted beast will appear on the body of the Beastman. The Beastman all look male, there is no distinction between male and female, only between male and female.
The male's animal pattern is on the chest, mostly fierce beasts, while the female's animal pattern is on the left shoulder, mostly small beasts.
The beast patterns are guidance given by the Beast God. The Beast People use the beast patterns to find the corresponding contracted beasts. When the synchronization rate with the contracted beasts is higher than 50%, a contract can be formed. The contracted beasts will become the most loyal partners of their masters and will greatly enhance the abilities of their masters.
During the development of the Beast Planet, the environment became increasingly harsh. More than a thousand years ago, a huge disaster occurred, causing the edible plants on the Beast Planet to almost disappear.
To this day, the environment of the Beast Planet is still harsh, and the animals and plants that survive on the planet have extremely strong vitality. Outside the three main cities is a vast area of barren forest with tall plants and ferocious beasts, which is very dangerous.
This pristine wild forest is the source of most of the food for the residents of Beast Star. It can be said that although Beast Star has entered the technological age from the primitive age and even opened the interstellar age, it still retains the habit of obtaining food from nature.
Due to these historical issues, all edible plants on the Beast Star are artificially cultivated and the quantity is extremely small. The most abundant is rice, but one or two ounces of rice costs at least one hundred star coins. Almost all restaurants selling them have daily fixed sales, and you have to snatch them up.
In other words, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it, not to mention that the average daily wage here is only 200 star coins, which is unaffordable for ordinary families.
As for vegetables and fruits, they are not available anywhere else except the "Fuyou Supermarket" which maintains close ties with the Institute of Plant Research. Even in Fuyou Supermarket, they may not be available every day, and the prices are ridiculously expensive.
The cheapest and richest supermarket sells the most in a week - a limited quantity of 30 kilograms of cabbage, which costs 1,000 star coins per kilogram.
When Xie Sen saw this, he finally understood why the shop owner and diners had such abnormal reactions. Not only did he spend ten star coins to get a box of meat, but he also asked the owner for rice, which he might not be able to buy with a hundred star coins. In the eyes of the owner, wasn't this just looking for trouble?
He smoothed his hair and sighed. What was this? He had eaten vegetables and fruits until they turned into vegetables in the apocalypse, and now he was forced to eat meat every day?
Thinking of this, he suddenly jumped up from the sofa. He could eat vegetables and fruits in the end times because he accidentally got the plant system!
Plant system! His heartbeat suddenly jumped up, and he pulled down the collar on his right shoulder. When he saw the pattern on his shoulder, he was delighted, and then he couldn't help frowning.
A five-colored flower floated on his fair shoulder. He was very familiar with the outline of the flower. It was the peony, the carrier of the plant system. However, at the end of the world, the color of this flower was bright red, but now it had five colors: red, white, green, black and yellow.
He stretched out his fingers and rubbed the petals, trying to communicate with the system, but no matter whether he spoke or communicated in his mind, he got no response.
Thinking of the scene when he was bound to the system, he walked to the kitchen, took a knife and cut his left index finger, letting the blood drip onto the peony.
Soon, the blood droplets that fell on the peony disappeared, and a faint five-colored light appeared on the petals. A four or five-year-old boy's voice appeared in Xie Sen's mind: "Wow! Success, Asen, you are still alive!"
Xie Sen quickly asked in his mind: "Did you do anything?"
The baby's voice was a little weak but could not hide his pride: "Of course, I activated my body energy at the critical moment to find a body that matched yours, otherwise you would definitely not survive."
"What about the original person in my body?"
A Dan said: "You can survive successfully, the other party must have died before you came."
Xie Sen was about to ask again, but A Dan said, "The power of time and space conversion is too strong. My energy is scattered and I am very weak. The plants you originally activated are gone. I need to reactivate them. I need to sleep to recover my daily energy. I will wake up once every twelve hours."
"If you still want plants, then work hard to collect gratitude energy to activate the plants. The more plants there are, the more time I will be awake," he said in a lower voice. "By the way, you have to remember to rest every eight hours after waking up."
"Why?"
After a while, there was no response from the system.
Xie Sen wiped his bleeding fingers on the peony petals and waited for a long time. There was no sound in his head and the bloodstains did not change at all.
Xie Sen wiped his shoulders clean, pulled up his collar, returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa. These days, the system is unreliable!
