The Kess? The Maines?
Xie Sen looked at the giant lion beast and asked in confusion: "What if more than one giant lion beast master wants to form a bond with it?"
"The market price of an A-level contracted beast is 20 million. We will sell it to the beast owner who offers the lowest price and has the highest synchronization rate." Sun Mao said.
Xie Sen's eyes suddenly widened. Twenty million? How could Maine have so much money?
Just as he was thinking, his communication rang. He stopped what he was doing and checked the communication display. It was Maine.
He said to Sun Mao, "I have a friend who is also the master of a giant lion beast. I asked him to come over. Can I let him in?"
Sun Mao looked at the giant lion beast that was about to stand up after Xie Sen's hand left it, and said hurriedly: "You clean its wound, I'll have someone lead him in."
Xie Sen nodded, connected Maine's phone, and asked him to come in with the people arranged by Sun Mao. After thinking for a while, he was worried that he was not mentally prepared, so he said to him: "The people from the Kes family are here too."
Maine was not surprised at all: "Three powerful families have giant lion beasts as their contracted beasts. They will all come here when they get the news."
Xie Sen suddenly realized, and subconsciously lowered his voice: "The price of the giant lion beast is 20 million, you..."
"Let's look at the synchronization rate first. If it's high enough, I'll find a way." Maine didn't seem worried and his tone was calm.
Xie Sen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, you come over first."
Xie Sen hung up the phone, treated the giant lion beast's wound, and was packing up the medicine and cloth strips when a young man's voice full of amazement came from the door.
"Oh! That's so cool, I want it!"
He turned his head and saw a young man in a well-tailored black suit running quickly towards the giant lion beast, followed by a serious-looking middle-aged man and two burly bodyguards.
The boy was about 1.93 meters tall, with blond curly hair and delicate features. He looked a bit like Maine, but a little plump and with baby fat on his face.
He ran to the giant lion beast with an excited look on his face. The giant lion beast seemed to have sensed something, and stood up from the ground, growling softly in its throat.
The boy was not afraid. He jumped and stretched out his hand to touch the giant lion beast, but was stopped by the serious-looking man: "Riluo!"
"Father," the young boy Rui Luo withdrew his hand and stood still, turning his head to look at the approaching middle-aged man, "He is rejecting me. I can feel that our synchronization rate is over fifty."
The middle-aged man nodded: "Yes, before the contract is signed, the high-level contracted beast will reject all people who may become its beast master. It will only be willing to sign the contract with a beast master who can make it obey."
He paused and reminded: "Before you make it obey, you must restrain yourself and not provoke it."
Rui Luo nodded: "I understand, father."
Sun Mao waited until the father and son finished speaking before stepping forward to greet them, "Lieutenant General Kes."
Miles nodded and praised, "It really deserves to be called a gold medal. It has been a long time since an A-level contracted beast appeared on the market." He looked at Megalomon, "How is it?"
"Great," Sun Mao's eyes sparkled, "His physical fitness, IQ, muscle strength, and toughness are all perfect. He just suffered some external injuries, which have been cleaned up and he will recover soon."
Meier nodded with satisfaction and made a decision directly: "Arrange a synchronization test. As long as the synchronization rate between Rui Luo and it exceeds 50%, we will directly carry out the bond ceremony."
Sun Mao thought to himself that this was a very good plan. He wanted to conclude the contract quickly to avoid competition from beast masters with higher synchronization rates!
He put on a standard smile and said: "The synchronization rate test is ready, but there are still a few giant lion beast masters who have not arrived. Please wait for a moment, Lieutenant General Kes."
"It's enough to test me. I can form a bond with it!" Rui Luo said loudly.
Meier also looked dissatisfied. Sun Mao smiled and explained: "The sales process of all contracted beasts is like this. The higher the synchronization rate, the stronger the combat power. The synchronization rate is more important for high-level contracted beasts. According to regulations, we must choose the buyer with the highest synchronization rate among the bidders."
"Brother Kes, don't be so anxious. I'll bring my little brat here for testing. If his level is lower than yours, I'll take him back directly." A hearty voice came from the door.
Xie Sen looked over and saw a dark-skinned, sturdy man, with a tall and thin young man beside him.
"Lieutenant General Yaben." Sun Mao greeted.
"Brothers are really well-informed. I rushed here quickly after I got the news, but I was still the last one to arrive." Yaben had taken a few steps forward when a rough voice came from behind him.
This time, a tall and strong middle-aged man with yellow skin walked in, and he was accompanied by a young boy.
Sun Mao greeted again: "Lieutenant General Qiao."
After Lieutenant General Qiao took a few steps forward, another person walked in, but he didn't say a word and was very quiet.
Xie Sen's eyes lit up and he quickly ran towards the door. The others were all paying attention to the giant lion beast and didn't notice him. He suddenly moved and everyone's eyes turned to him.
"Father, why is he here? Have you informed him?" Rui Luo followed the direction where Xie Sen was running and saw Maine. He looked at Meyer in disbelief, suppressing his anger.
"No," Meier said in a deep voice, warning, "This is not the way you should treat me."
"I'm sorry, father. I'm just so surprised." Rui Luo apologized with his head lowered.
The parents and teenagers from the other two families looked at each other with an expression that indicated they were enjoying a good show.
"Maine," Xie Sen ran into Maine halfway. He looked at Maine, who was still wearing all black as in the morning, with no wounds on his exposed skin. He smiled, "Are you in a hurry?"
"It's okay," Maine looked ahead and paused. Xie Sen looked at him worriedly and changed the subject, "Manager Sun said that the synchronization rate test is ready. Now that everyone is here, we should be able to start the test."
Maine nodded: "Yeah."
"Why are you here?" As the two approached, Rui Luo walked up to Maine and asked loudly.
Xie Sen rushed to Maine with dissatisfaction: "I notified him to come. He is the master of the giant lion beast, so why can't he come?"
Maine didn't expect him to stand in front of him, and stared at the top of his black hair in surprise.
Rui Luo glanced down at him and said disdainfully: "Who are you? Are you his female friend? You have a really bad taste."
"You are the female!" Xie Sen glared at him, "I am his friend, and my vision is a hundred times better than yours!"
Rui Luo clicked his tongue, and looked at Maine with a sneer on his face: "Friends? I didn't expect you to dare to make friends."
Maine's face turned ugly for a moment, and Xie Sen frowned.
"Rillo." Meier growled and gave Rillo a warning look.
Seeing this, Sun Mao interrupted in time: "Everyone, please follow me and do the synchronization rate test."
As he spoke, he looked at Xie Sen and pointed to the upper left corner where a square metal instrument was placed: "Xiao Sen, lead the giant lion beast there."
"Don't you have any gold medals left? You actually let him do such a thing. He might as well get stepped to death by the giant lion beast later." Rui Luo said sarcastically.
Silly kid, Xie Sen glared at him, and Maine pulled his arm: "I'll go with you."
"No need," Xie Sen said with a smile, "I'm fine, you follow Manager Sun."
Sun Mao smiled and said, "Only Xiao Sen can do this well. Beast Master, come with me to prepare."
Xie Sen walked to the giant lion beast. The giant lion beast, stimulated by its master, stood there, waiting for Xie Sen to come in, and looked down at him.
Xie Sen jumped and touched its chin, then walked to its front legs, hugged its legs, and used a little force to signal it to move.
The giant lion beast was very smart and immediately understood what he meant. It followed his force and walked to the location designated by Sun Mao.
"Who is he?" Lieutenant General Yaben, who was waiting for his son to wear the instrument not far away, looked at the scene in surprise and asked Sun Mao.
Sun Mao smiled and said, "He is our employee. He has a very strong affinity and all the contracted beasts like him."
"So amazing?" Lieutenant General Qiao stroked his chin, "I've lived for so many years, and I've never seen such a docile uncontracted A-level contracted beast."
Maine, who was wearing the instrument, heard this and looked in the direction of Xie Sen. The giant lion beast was lying on the ground and Xie Sen was rubbing its mane.
Lieutenant General Kes glanced at Xie Sen thoughtfully: "Is he the student who was on the hot search because of Dean Ma and Dean Mu?"
As soon as the words fell, the three lieutenant generals looked at each other and saw expressions of speculation and surprise in each other's eyes.
Maine saw all this and frowned.
After the four giant lion beast owners put on the testers, Sun Mao led them to the metal instrument next to the giant lion beast.
He turned on the instrument, and a pair of footprints were projected on the ground in front of the instrument. Sun Mao said, "Everyone just needs to stand at the footprints one by one. You will know the synchronization rate value in ten seconds."
Several people looked at each other, and Lieutenant General Qiao patted his son on the shoulder and said, "You go first."
Ten seconds later, the instrument displayed a value: fifty percent.
Next was Vice Admiral Aben's son, with a synchronization rate of 153 percent.
Maine took a step forward, and Rui Luo immediately said, "I'll go first!" He walked quickly to the footprints, with a synchronization rate of 58 percent.
He jumped aside with a smile, but when he saw that Maine's synchronization rate was 60%, his smile froze instantly.
Lieutenant General Yaben laughed and said, "Brother Kes is still the best." Although he did not say it explicitly, everyone present understood that he meant that the two people with the highest synchronization rate were both Meyer's sons.
Rui Luo gritted his teeth, pointed at Maine and said loudly: "He doesn't count, he can't afford the price at all!"
Sun Mao looked at Maine inquiringly, and Maine asked, "Can you give me a few days?"
Xie Sen looked at him in surprise. If he were given a few days, would he be able to come up with 20 million?
"Didn't we say that we should choose among those who can afford the price? He can't even afford the price like this!" Rui Luo was dissatisfied.
Sun Mao ignored him and looked at Meyer in embarrassment. Now the two people with the highest synchronization rate both have the surname Kes. If Meyer agrees with Rui Luo and insists that Main cannot afford the price to deprive him of the right to participate, then Gold Medal will have no way to do anything.
Xie Sen couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with giving me a few days? Do I have to pay the full amount right now?"
Maine patted his shoulder and suggested to Sun Mao: "I can give half of the deposit first."
"You have 10 million? Where did you get so much money?" Rui Luo was shocked. He looked at Meier suspiciously, "Father, you..."
"Shut up!" Meier's forehead vein jumped, and he looked at Maine and asked the same question as Rui Luo, "Where did you get your money from?"
Maine lowered his eyes and did not reply. Xie Sen only knew that the way he made money was hunting. However, the price of meat in large supermarkets was ten star coins per pound, and the price of selling directly from hunting was definitely cheaper. No matter how he thought about it, he could not save up ten million.
To put it another way, even if the 10 million was obtained through hunting, it cannot be told to anyone, because Maine left the city illegally!
Rui Luo was silent for a moment and then spoke again, his tone full of realization: "It must be your uncle who gave it to you, right? I will contact your uncle right now and tell him not to give you the money. Even if you pay half now, you won't be able to pay the rest!"
Maine said nothing, but just looked at Sun Mao inquiringly.
Just as Rui Luo was about to say something, Meier's communication line rang. Everyone around him fell silent and listened to him tell the other party about the current situation. Then they said "hmm" and hung up the line.
As soon as he hung up the call, Rui Luo asked hurriedly: "Is it from Grandfather? What did he say?"
Meier looked at Maine and said, "I will arrange for Rui Luo to participate in this graduate league. Whoever ranks higher among you will form a bond with it."
He paused and said, "If you win, the twenty million will be paid by the Kes family."
"Father!" Rui Luo was dissatisfied.
"This is what your grandfather meant," Meier looked at him, then said to Sun Mao, "My assistant will pay the money later. No matter who wins, the bond ceremony will be held after the end of the ninth league. You will take care of the giant lion beast for the next few days. The fee will be discussed with my assistant."
"Okay." Sun Mao nodded.
Several lieutenant generals left with their sons. Xie Sen felt distressed when he saw Maine in silence. He could have signed the contract directly!
He looked up at Maine, waved his fist, and said firmly: "We will definitely win the championship. It will be your contracted beast!"
Maine stared at him for a while, then suddenly laughed and couldn't help rubbing his head: "It's okay, actually..." He lowered his voice a little, "60%, a little low."
He said helplessly: "But high-level contracted beasts are too rare to come across. You're lucky if you can come across more than 50% of them. If you miss out, you may never come across one again in your lifetime."
Xie Sen's heart moved. He remembered that in the book, Long Teng and Maine both had extremely high synchronization rates with their S-level contracted beasts, both above 85%, so their combat power was extremely abnormal.
His gaze fell on Maine's chest. Could it be that Maine had misread the contract beast pattern?
"What are you thinking about in broad daylight?" Sun Mao patted his shoulder with his left hand, smiled ambiguously, and held his chin with his right hand. "That's right, a small male like you can't find a female. It's right to find a male!"
"Don't worry, we don't discriminate against homosexuals," Sun Mao said, looking at Maine. "Xiao Sen has a good temper and is hardworking. Except for his infertility, he is much better than females. You should consider him. He likes you very much. He wanted to tear the clothes off your chest with his eyes just now."
Xie Sen was speechless and inexplicably embarrassed. He slapped Sun Mao's hand and said, "Manager Sun, don't talk nonsense. We...we are not gay."
Maine's eyes fell on his slightly red ears, he rubbed his fingers silently, and nodded seriously: "I will think about it carefully."
Xie Sen glanced at him speechlessly: "Why are you joining in the fun!" He checked the time, "I still have an hour and a half before I get off work, you go home first!"
Sun Mao's eyes lit up: "Oh~ So you're already living together!"
"Manager, I'm going back to the maintenance department. Don't come to me if you have any problems in the future." Xie Sen said as he walked out.
Sun Mao reached out and pulled him back: "Why are you still so angry? You are an incompetent employee. Forget about the maintenance department for now. Take care of the giant lion beast for the next two days. It's best to get it used to staying here. If it causes trouble while you are participating in the league, it will be troublesome!"
After Sun Maocai finished speaking, the phone rang. After he answered it, he gave Xie Sen a few more instructions and left District 4.
Maine said: "I have nothing to do today, I will wait for you to get off work here."
Xie Sen sat cross-legged on the ground, touching the giant lion beast's claws, and waved at him: "Alright, you can get more familiar with it. I heard that even if the synchronization rate is high enough, it is not easy to make him obey the contract."
"Yes, this is the nature of animals. They will only submit to creatures that are stronger than themselves."
Maine said as he sat next to him, looking at the giant lion beast, tilted his head in confusion, and followed Xie Sen's movements to reach out and touch the giant lion beast's paw.
The giant lion beast raised its eyelids to look at him, then narrowed its eyes again.
"Eh," Xie Sen thought about what he had heard before and couldn't help but wonder, "Didn't they say that the contracted beast would reject people who might become the beast master? It doesn't seem to reject you."
"I find it strange too," Maine frowned, and after a while he guessed, "Could it be because of you?"
Xie Sen was not sure, but he was more inclined to believe that Maine had made a mistake with his contracted beast.
He blinked, but couldn't help but be curious, pointing at Maine's chest: "Can I see your contract beast mark?"
Maine's eyes changed slightly, he looked at him and whispered, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Xie Sen nodded: "Of course, I'm curious."
Maine looked into his black and white eyes, and an inexplicable disappointment rose in his heart. He rubbed his nose and said, "You have forgotten a lot of things. Don't say such things to others in the future."
Xie Sen realized something was wrong. Before he could ask, Maine started to explain: "This is a female confessing her love to a male. The beast pattern is the symbol of a male. When a female makes this request, it means she has set her eyes on the male."
Xie Sen was stunned and waved his hands repeatedly: "I don't know... and I'm not a female, I wouldn't say that even if I confessed!"
Bah, what is he thinking! There are only men here, how could he have the time to confess to anyone?
Maine chuckled, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What would you say when you confess?"
Xie Sen met his gaze, and his heartbeat inexplicably quickened. He looked away: "Just say you like it!" He changed the subject, "Can I take a look? I'm curious."
At this point, he suddenly remembered that he had seen Maine take off his clothes!
"No," he looked at Maine in surprise, "Are you actually a female? The last time you changed your clothes, there was no animal pattern on your chest."
If we hadn't talked about this, he wouldn't have noticed anything was wrong. In his opinion, it was normal to have no animal patterns.
Maine curled his lips and said in a low and dangerous voice: "Do you think I look like a female?"
"No, no, no," Xie Sen waved his hands quickly, "Curious, just curious."
Maine said, "Didn't you notice that your contracted beast mark doesn't show up normally? It only shows up when you're in a strong mood or when you're deliberately controlling it."
Where is the animal pattern on him?
Xie Sen laughed dryly: "I didn't notice." He looked at Maine expectantly, "Can I take a look?"
After listening to Maine's explanation, he felt more and more that Maine might have made a mistake in the contracted beast. The beast pattern was on the chest and did not usually appear, so it was very likely that Maine did not see it clearly.
FlyingLionmon and GiantLionmon have similar names and look alike. He still remembers the description in the book - FlyingLionmon is a lion with wings.
Maine hesitated for a moment, lifted up his shirt, and quickly took off his pullover T-shirt. His skin was very white, but not weak. His muscles were strong and he looked very powerful.
Xie Sen stared at his chest. Gradually, a roaring lion head appeared in the middle of Maine's white chest. The lion's eyes were sharp. Xie Sen seemed to hear the lion's roar just by looking at the beast pattern's ears, which was powerful and fierce.
Xie Sen looked at it for a long time, but couldn't find any difference between it and the giant lion beast.
Could the wings be white, obscured by the skin?
Thinking of this, Xie Sen put his hands on the ground and put his head close to observe more carefully.
Maine's body subconsciously tensed up. Xie Sen was too close to him, and Maine could even feel his breathing. Every time the breath hit his skin, it felt itchy, as if it passed through his skin and into his heart.
Seeing Xie Sen getting closer, Maine couldn't help but reach out and grab the back of his collar. Just as he was about to pull him back, a surprised voice came from the door.
"Sorry to bother you, please continue!" The visitor was shocked to see a man with his upper body naked and another throwing himself into the arms of another.
Arsen's posture, how come it looks like he's sucking...
Stop! The man put the food bucket next to the door and said quickly, "Xiao Sen, this is food for the giant lion beast. Remember to feed it before you leave work."
The words were still ringing, but the other person had disappeared and the door was closed tightly.
Xie Sen was stunned by his action which seemed like he had pressed the fast-forward button. When he came to his senses, he realized something was wrong. How did he get so close to Maine?
He glanced to the left. Why was Maine's hand on his shoulder? A hug?
“You…” He looked up in surprise, and his forehead brushed against Maine’s chin.
Maine lowered his eyes to look at him, pinched his collar and pulled it back slightly. Xie Sen instantly realized that he had just misunderstood and stepped back with a red face.
Maine glanced at his red face and said, "You're too close. Do you see clearly? If you see clearly, I'll put on my clothes."
"I see it clearly." Xie Sen nodded awkwardly, but thinking about the beast pattern that was no different from that of the giant lion beast, he couldn't help but reveal a puzzled expression.
"Is there a problem?" Maine noticed that his expression was not right and asked while putting on his clothes.
Xie Sen thought for a moment and asked, "Will there be two contracted beasts with the same beast pattern? For example, the giant tiger beast and the flying tiger beast, or some other tiger beast?"
"No, the beast pattern of each contracted beast is unique, at most they are similar." Maine heard his question and probably knew what he was thinking, "Are you suspicious that I made the wrong contracted beast because Giant Lionmon doesn't reject me?"
Xie Sen rubbed the back of his head and laughed: "I just like to daydream."
Maine smiled. He liked Xie Sen's wild thoughts about him. It made him feel warm. No one had ever done that for him.
He smiled, and suddenly his mind emerged with the mocking look on Rui Luo's face when he said "You dare to make friends?" He lowered his head and his smile gradually faded.
Xie Sen didn't notice. He stood up and patted his pants: "I'll go get the animal food. It was injured before, and I don't know if it's hungry."
Xie Sen walked to the door and looked at the wooden barrel that could be used as a water tank in modern times, with a helpless look on his face. He tried to lift it up, but couldn't, so he pulled the edge and slowly dragged it backwards.
"I'll do it." Maine walked up to him and patted his shoulder.
Xie Sen let go of his hand and looked at Maine enviously as he lifted the wooden barrel with ease. He quickly followed and asked Maine to put the wooden barrel next to the trough. After Maine put it firmly in place, he used a large pair of tongs to pick up the meat and put it into the trough.
Maine grabbed his wrist and said, "Don't clamp it. I'll do it. You step back a few steps."
Xie Sen did as he was told. Maine held the lower end of the bucket, lifted it up with force, and poured all the animal food in the bucket into the trough at once.
Xie Sen was full of admiration. This boyfriend is really amazing! He gave Maine a thumbs up and said, "Great! If you come here to work, the feeding department can hire a lot fewer people."
Maine smiled, Xie Sen ran to the giant lion beast and rubbed its mane, pointing at the trough: "Are you hungry? Go eat something."
The giant lion beast tilted its head and rubbed his hand, then stood up and went to the trough to eat.
"Are you very popular with the contracted beast?" Maine asked.
"Yes, I have a high affinity, and I like them too." Xie Sen smiled and looked at the giant lion beast that was eating with big mouthfuls. Thinking of Sun Mao's words, he frowned, "If it doesn't submit, there is also a way to force it to form a contract with the beast master, right?"
"Yes," Maine said, "I will not force my contracted beast. A beast master who cannot make the contracted beast submit is not worthy of forming a contract with the contracted beast."
Xie Sen's brows relaxed: "You are so kind." He looked at the giant lion beast worriedly, "If you don't form a bond with it, it will be Rui Luo's turn. If he can't make the giant lion beast surrender, he will force it."
"Are you confident of winning the championship?" Maine asked with a smile.
"Of course," Xie Sen's eyebrows lit up instantly, "You, Long Teng, and Bai Jiao are recognized as the strongest team in the forum. You will definitely win the championship."
"Then you don't have to worry, I will make it surrender." Maine was extremely confident.
Xie Sen shrugged helplessly. He always felt that something was wrong. It didn't make sense that everything should be the same as in the book, but Maine's contracted beast was wrong.
Maine was silent for a moment and then spoke again: "Do you like browsing forums?"
"Not really. I usually look at it when I have questions and seek answers." Xie Sen couldn't help laughing when he thought of the neat replies on the forum. "You are recognized as the strongest combination, but they all think that you can't form a team. I'm really looking forward to their reactions when they know you form a team."
"We'll see tomorrow," Maine said. "Tomorrow the team registration will close, and the names of all team members will be announced. The prizes will be distributed according to the names on the list."
After he finished answering, he looked at Xie Sen and said, "They should have listed the reasons why we won't form a team. Did you see it?"
Xie Sen thought of what Maine said, and his smile faded. He looked at him sincerely and said, "Don't worry about it. People can't choose their own life experience. It has nothing to do with you."
He smiled and gestured: "They don't understand you. You are great, better than anyone I know. You are good-looking, good at fighting, and you can make money. You have plans and you are kind!"
Maine stared at him for a long while, chuckled, and whispered, "I hope you can always think this way."
Xie Sen blinked and said quickly: "As long as you keep doing this, I will of course keep thinking this way!"
Don't turn evil, and don't bring strange beasts to attack Brandt Star.
The two chatted casually, and soon it was time to get off work. Xie Sen asked Maine to wait for him at the door while he swiped his card to get off work.
Along the way, he felt that his colleagues were looking at him with very subtle expressions. He looked down at his clothes and found nothing wrong.
He swiped the card in confusion, and Sun Mao suddenly appeared from behind him, patted his shoulder and gave him a thumbs up: "Great, you got it so quickly, but you have to know how to be moderate, and pay attention to the occasion and time, and restrain yourself when you are at work."
He smiled teasingly, "You guys are living together anyway, so you can do whatever you want at night."
Xie Sen was confused at first, and didn't understand what he was saying at all. But after listening to the end, he finally understood. He grabbed Sun Mao's arm and said through gritted teeth, "What nonsense are you talking about? I said he and I are just friends."
"Do I look like a fool?" Sun Mao pointed his index finger at himself and shook it left and right. "You should use this to comfort children. Now everyone in the company knows that you had sex with a handsome guy on the grass in District 4 during working hours."
Xie Sen's voice almost came out from between his teeth: "Everyone?"
"Yes, this is a fact with solid evidence," Sun Mao laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "It's okay, the brothers won't laugh at you, they are all praising you, you look like a female, but I didn't expect you to be so aggressive, so cool!"
Xie Sen covered his face and said, "What the hell, nothing happened, what nonsense are you talking about!"
He let go of his hand and said through gritted teeth, "What's the name of the man who delivered food to the giant lion beast? Tell me, and I promise not to beat him to death!"
Sun Mao shook his head: "The company prohibits internal fighting. You look peaceful with your face written all over it, but I can't tell you that it's no big deal to be thick-skinned."
Xie Sen looked at Sun Mao's smiling face and felt itchy. In order to avoid beating his boss, he waved goodbye neatly and trotted to the door.
"Someone bullied you?" Maine said in a cold voice, seeing how depressed and angry he was.
Xie Sen looked up at him, and thinking of those rumors, he felt embarrassed and amused, and couldn't help laughing: "No one bullied me, but I seem to have accidentally ruined your reputation."
"mine?"
“Well,” Xie Sen coughed lightly, a little embarrassed, “When I was looking at your beast pattern, someone saw it, and he misunderstood that we were doing it… and spread it out.”
A smile flashed in Maine's eyes: "It's okay, I don't mind."
Xie Sen thought, he was indeed too thin-skinned. Two grown men, what's the big deal about a misunderstanding?
However, the next day when he received all kinds of teasing, surprise, admiration and ridicule from his colleagues, he still felt very uncomfortable.
During lunch, he also met Yang Shun, who was as gentle as ever. The two of them ate together, and Yang Shun didn't make a single joke during the meal. Xie Sen was so moved that he cried.
After finishing the meal, when they were about to separate and go back to their respective lounges, Yang Shun said with concern: "I sent you a website, I think you might be able to use it. You are a male, so you need to be more careful than us females."
Xie Sen returned to the lounge with a puzzled look on his face. What should he pay more attention to than females?
He opened the bracelet, clicked on the link Yang Shun sent him, and then his face was filled with black lines.
Lubricant, condoms, after-sex care cream...what are these things!
How could he possibly use it?
Xie Sen's face flushed as he deleted Yang Shun's messages, all web browsing, and then opened the school forum.
As soon as he entered the forum, he saw a hot post with a flame logo floating at the top. "Shock! They actually teamed up!"
He clicked on it and saw a list of league team members on the main floor. One group was highlighted in red and bold, and it was their group.
"I can't believe it. Aren't they just traveling alone?"
"I'm very curious, how did Xie Feicai sneak in?"
"Hasn't anyone noticed that these people are isolated? I guess they are just trying to keep each other warm."
"Maybe it's just to win the championship? The other three have abilities that need not be mentioned. After Xie Feicai's failed suicide attempt and awakening the Mimic Beast, his abilities are very confusing. He won the sparring match with Ah Meng quickly and easily, and he doesn't seem to be weak either."
"That's it. No need to think about winning the championship."
"The one upstairs really has a dream, do you dare to dream of becoming the champion?"
"I am extremely curious now. I want to know Xie Feicai's strength. It feels extraordinary that he can team up with the three of them."
"Add one, I'm also curious. With Long Teng's personality, he must have fought him before. Since he's teamed up with him, he must have recognized his strength."
"The more I talk, the more I feel Xie Feicai is unfathomable."
Xie Sen couldn't help laughing. It's so unfathomable! Are your imaginations too big? Teaming up with Long Teng doesn't require equal strength. Just knowing how to find the way is enough.
After he finished laughing, he chose to remain anonymous and replied to the comments: "Xie Sen beat Ah Meng in the sparring match and ranked first in his major in the graduation exam. Can he be called a waste? The people chatting in the forum are all top students in their respective departments, right?"
He sent a shy expression: "It feels great to be browsing the forum with such great people like you!"
After his reply was sent, the post seemed to freeze for a moment. Originally there were ten replies per minute, but after this reply appeared, it took two minutes before someone finally responded.
"I can't believe that Xie Sen actually has supporters. Such a strong mocking tone!"
“Isn’t it a joke to be number one in the plant department?”
"…Am I the only one who thinks that makes sense? It's really not a good idea to call it that now."
"I think he is Xie Feicai himself. The first place in the Plant Department has no gold content. If you want people to change their name, it's simple. Go to the sparring stage and beat all those who look down on him. If he can't even beat Xie Feicai, the name of waste can be changed."
Xie Sen snorted and replied, "So, Ah Meng, who has already lost to Xie Sen, will be called a badass in the future?"
Ah Meng: "Whoever yells that? See you on the sparring stage!"
"Wow, Ah Meng showed up."
Xie Sen had already posted the comment he wanted to post, and he also saw his classmates' surprised reactions. He looked at the time and realized that if he didn't take a break and sleep, he would not have enough time, so he closed the forum and started his lunch break.
His job in the afternoon was still to take care of the giant lion beast, and he only went to the maintenance department to help out occasionally. This slowed down his energy collection speed a lot, and the total value was only thirty-five when he got off work.
When he returned to the apartment, he was opening the door when Grandpa Long Teng came over to return the lunch box: "Your cooking skills are really good. It's so delicious. I've washed the lunch box. I was busy yesterday and didn't return it to you in time."
"Nothing." Xie Sen took the lunch box, pushed the door and walked in. The old man followed him into the house. Xie Sen turned around and asked, "Is there anything else, old man?"
The old man smiled and said, "I have something to ask you, sit down and talk."
Xie Sen led the man to the living room, secretly thinking that he was going to ask him how he got the potatoes, and was prepared to answer that he was lucky again.
However, the old man's words blocked his answer directly. He got straight to the point: "Where do your potatoes come from? I checked the information of the buyers of Fuyou Supermarket potatoes, and you are not among them. The other buyers have no connection with you."
Is there such an operation? Xie Sen asked in surprise: "How did you find the buyer's information?"
The old man smiled and said, "I know the boss." He blinked and lowered his voice, "I originally thought you were a plant-type beast master, and your contracted beast was a pepper tree, but suddenly a potato appeared, and I was confused."
Xie Sen was not surprised by the old man's guess about his identity. Last time, the old man said a lot of suggestive words, and he knew at that time that the old man had guessed his identity.
He spread his hands: "Just think of it as something I picked up on the road!"
The old man was very insightful. He knew he didn't want to tell the truth when he heard this. He laughed and said, "You're not going to make excuses to lie to me?"
Xie Sen was helpless: "Is it useful?"
The old man smiled and narrowed his eyes: "I'm only asking you to test it out. It's normal to have some secrets. I have something else to ask you."
His smile faded and his expression became serious: "At present, only wealthy supermarkets sell potatoes on the market. Those potatoes are produced by the research laboratories of the Botanical Research Institute. The yield is small, the size is small, and the taste is not as good as the potatoes you gave me."
"I know Ma Qun and I know a little bit about potatoes. They can be cut into pieces and cultivated. Can you give me a potato so I can take it to the Botanical Research Institute for research?"
Xie Sen's heart moved slightly. He actually wanted to grow potatoes, but because the league was coming up, he didn't want to spend energy to exchange them, and he hadn't found a suitable place to grow them.
He had never seen exposed soil on Brandt Star. Even if the potatoes exchanged by the system had strong vitality, they could not grow in stones.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, the old man continued: "If you don't want to be exposed, I will keep it a secret for you."
"What if they ask you where you are from?" Xie Sen felt that it was not reliable to keep it a secret.
The old man smiled and said, "I brought it back from outer space. My family is an interstellar merchant and we have discovered many new species.
