Chapter 3 Bet Invitation Hello, Boss!
"As expected, people with taste are always lonely."
Lancelot hummed a cheerful tune, rinsed his claws in the puddle on the ground, checked them carefully, and then wiped them twice on the back of the unconscious pirate next to him.
"Impossible... This is impossible... Die! Die now!"
The pirate leader clung to the wall, his whole body trembling. He covered his prosthetic eye, which was about to roll out of its socket, with one hand, and waved his other hand wildly to unleash his supernatural power, suppressing his fear.
Both orcs and federal humans have mental power. When their mental power reaches level B, some people will awaken superpowers. Although superpowers are absolutely prohibited outside the battlefield, this ban cannot restrain the star pirates who are at large.
However, at this moment, it was as if God was playing a cruel joke. No matter how he waved his hands, the arc he was so proud of disappeared without a trace as if it had been swallowed by a black hole.
Like it never existed.
The swaying fox tail cast a shadow on the wall, constantly flashing across the frightened face.
The pirate leader could only repeat over and over in near despair, "How could this happen... Don't, don't kill me... Please... Please..."
"You still need to practice more. Just relying on supernatural powers is useless."
The red fox squatted in front of him, its front paws pressed against the whip, pushing and rolling around, and asked politely, "Isn't that right?"
"Yes, yes...you are right!"
The red fox nodded approvingly, as if he thought the other party was very sensible. He asked again with great mercy, "Do you think this long whip is a broken weapon?"
"No! No!"
The pirate leader suddenly raised his voice, the chill that seeped into his bones triggering his survival instinct. He spoke rapidly but clearly, "This is the only Mirage Whip in the entire galaxy. It fully demonstrates Ghost Teacher's superb skills and your extraordinary aesthetic taste!"
The red fox stroked the handle of the whip and looked up: "Would you like to admire it?"
Cold sweat dripped down his cheekbones. The pirate leader didn't know how to respond. After a long pause, he trembled and said, "...Okay, okay."
The green olive-like animal eyes stared at him without blinking. The pirate leader didn't dare to breathe. When his nerves were almost stretched to the limit, Lancelot suddenly chuckled.
"You wish."
He waved his furry front paws perfunctorily. "It's just a polite remark, don't take it seriously."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and fiddled with the whip, holding it up with his claws.
At this time, the pirate leader, a strong man who was nearly two meters tall, was about to cry. He swallowed his saliva, walked two tentative steps against the wall, and found that the neurotic fox seemed to be struggling with whether to clean the whip first or put it back in the box first.
He turned around suddenly and ran as fast as he could with the greatest courage in his life.
The landed aircraft was just a few dozen meters away, and my heart was beating so hard in my chest that it seemed like it was about to jump out of my throat.
Almost there! Almost there!
He suppressed the urge to retch, his fingertips about to touch the cold metal door—
“Puff!”
The sounds of metal colliding and flesh tearing rang out simultaneously.
The scorpion-tail-like spike pierced through the chest with a violent impact and nailed it heavily to the metal hatch.
The pirate leader twitched and lowered his head. The foreign object in his chest, which was glowing dark red, squirmed as if it had life, crushing his internal organs.
He opened his mouth in disbelief, gushing out large mouthfuls of blood foam, and finally his head drooped weakly.
"There's even an automatic enemy search function... How thoughtful! I'll have to get a signature next time..."
Lancelot liked the custom-made whip more and more. He cleaned the stain and put it back in the box. Then he looked up and saw the bodies of pirates lying all over the ground, covering the muddy road.
He raised his claws and tried to step on the back of a body. He felt that the feeling was okay, and he spoke in an elegant and drawn-out tone -
"Thank you, everyone."
He tilted his head and waited for a few seconds, but no one responded on the street after the fierce fight.
"Oh, you are quite rude."
Lancelot leaped up lightly, his paw pads accurately touching the pirates' overlapping shoulder blades, and he disappeared at the end of the street corner in a moment, swinging his big red fluffy tail.
The night receded like the tide, and a beam of pale blue morning light spread over the edge of the bed.
The floral quilt was gathered into a small ball, and a rabbit's head with messy fur poked out from the edge of the quilt.
The two front paws are raised first, the legs are stretched and the waist is bent, the mouth is opened to inhale, and the mouth is pulled into an oval shape, revealing the small white front teeth.
"ha……"
Youan yawned in a way that made his legs look the longest, then jumped to the center of the pillow in satisfaction to wake himself up.
As long as the animal shape is small enough, you can have the illusion of getting up from a 300-square-meter bed every day.
After admiring the spacious bed, Youan crawled into the quilt and pushed half of his body out of his brother.
"Good morning, brother..." You Tuantuan obviously hadn't slept enough. He closed his eyes and rubbed his head against You An's cheek. After a few rubs, his head fell down with a "bang" like a doll whose battery had run out.
Youan didn't wake him up. He changed back into human form, packed up, and took his brother to the bathroom to wash up.
After washing his face with a towel, he turned over, wrapped You Tuan Tuan up, rubbed it all over, and then blew it dry with warm air.
When they returned to the room, You Tuantuan, who had exploded into a ball of fur, had already woken up. She twisted her butt left and right, jumped up from her brother's palm, and landed accurately on the biscuit box covered with a floral cotton pad.
The little bunny nestled in the middle of the biscuit box, gulping down the nutrient solution and medicine in one gulp, and carefully cleaning the fur around his mouth.
The old computer slowly popped up a screen in the air. You An prepared some snacks and filled up his water cup, placing them next to the cookie box. "I'm going out. How about I play the new episode of 'Genius in a Bottle' for you?"
Nowadays, children like to watch this cartoon.
You Tuantuan stared at the membership logo on the screen, closed his eyes and shook his head. "No need! I, I need to do the questions I didn't solve yesterday."
The morning sets the tone for the day. My hardworking brother has to go out and make money, and I can’t be a lazy bunny and slack off all day long!
"I see..."
After a brief thought, Youan transferred one hundred Bailan coins to his light brain.
"You can watch it when you want to relax. There's a free trial. If you like it, you can become a member."
"Free trial..."
You Tuantuan had a confused expression on his face, as if a light bulb had lit up next to his head, and he suddenly nodded to indicate that he remembered.
The weekend is a good time to make money. Today, Youan needs to go to the house to feed the Tany beasts that are left at home during the holidays.
This docile little pet is quite clingy. Even with automatic feeders and household robots, many owners who need to travel far away still have people come to feed and play with their pets.
Youan took more than a dozen orders, planned the routes for the red dot marks spread across eight blocks on the map, and set off immediately on a flying boat emitting black smoke.
The Tani beast looks like a ball of white marshmallow, and when it sees someone entering the house, it will come over with a cooing sound.
Youan swept the floor, washed the dishes, opened cans, and then squatted down to play with small toys.
This Tanyon was not interested in the barking stuffed animal toy. Instead, it chased after Youan's tail and rubbed against it, as if it recognized it as a fellow creature with a different fur color.
Youan turned his head and said, "I'm a dwarf rabbit."
Tanimon rubbed his tail stickily: "Guji."
Youan: "Hmph."
He took a video and sent it to the guest, and soon the guest's communication started ringing -
"Your tail isn't dirty, is it? Well, just disinfect it and play with it in your beast form for ten minutes."
How can this be possible? There is no such service in the companion game, and the conversion will consume mental energy!
Youan frowned: "It will cost more."
"Okay, okay, you really are obsessed with money."
After receiving 50 White Orchid coins from the other party, Youan transformed into a beast form neatly, endured the disinfectant spray from the housekeeping robot, and played seesaw with Tanimon.
As soon as ten minutes are up, get up immediately.
Tanimon, who was immersed in happiness, was suddenly dumbfounded and kept jumping around his feet like a bouncy ball.
"I'm sorry, but friendship bought with money is just like that."
Youan touched it and went to the next house.
Speed is of the essence in war. By noon, all eighteen households of Tani beasts had been fed.
Youan made a net profit of 3,000 White Orchid coins and rode the flying boat back to Kagano at high speed.
On the way, they met some old congressmen who were using the big loudspeakers of their flying boats to challenge each other, which caused a noise protest and empty cans and bottles flying all over the sky. The clever dwarf rabbit stopped working, hunched over and dived into the crowd.
The interstellar patrolman was sighing at the good weather over the weekend. He looked up and saw a flying boat spewing black smoke with a large bag of waste hanging on it, rising and falling over his head. The veins on his forehead suddenly popped up, and he quickly stopped the person.
You An secretly cursed his bad luck, rubbed his hands awkwardly, and tried to play dumb: "Hello, is there something wrong?"
"What's the problem? You're driving a nearly scrapped modified flying boat, polluting the environment with exhaust fumes, overloading it, and speeding!"
This kid looked honest, but he was quite courageous. After the interstellar patrol counted his illegal operations, they directly seized the flying boat.
You won’t find another such suitable means of transportation in the garbage dump.
A sense of urgency arises as I am about to be forced to separate from my best partner.
You An straightened his back and said, "What if I insist on taking it away today?"
"Deduct three points, and go upstairs and pay five hundred." The patrolman was extremely indifferent. "Any objections?"
"No..." Youan said in a low voice, and left with his head down.
After replacing the new parts at a nearby repair station, my best partner's value increased, but my wallet became thinner, so I felt like I had worked for nothing for the whole morning.
When Youan returned to Kagano, the screen with the deduction information kept popping up in front of him like a virus.
The medicine cost 120,000, the physical examination fee was 8,600, the daily expenses were 3,200...the deposit balance returned to four digits.
He deleted all of this, along with the casino's debt collection threats, to avoid being seen by You Tuantuan and causing him to refuse to take his medicine.
A rich life is hard to imagine, but the feeling of poverty is unforgettable.
Forget it, not having money means you will soon be rich.
Youan comforted himself and walked to the vending machine at the entrance of the cafeteria and bought a can of the cheapest nutrient solution.
The dark green paste was a crude mixture of carbohydrates and proteins required by adult orcs, and tasted like sour porridge.
After finishing his drink, Youan took a photo of the cafeteria and sent it to Xiaotu. He touched his stomach with a feeling of unsatisfied feeling, and then trotted to the school garden.
After a while, the flower bushes full of flowers rustled.
"So... Lance, you were actually in a rush to get to the dungeon last night?"
Several figures walked across the corridor of the flower garden.
The black-haired human youth placed his elbow on the tiger-like beastman's shoulder and teased the figure in front, "You know what Enzo's loud-mouthed nephew said? Cinderella turned into a fox, and her uncle is worried about her!"
“So disgusting.”
Enzo rolled his eyes in disgust, "Don't let this fairy tale turn into a thriller, okay?"
"I should be the one saying this."
The handsome red fox orc suddenly turned his head, and his long crimson hair raised fine dust of light with the movement.
He folded his arms, half leaning against the stone pillar of the corridor, his well-maintained tail swaying leisurely, and his thick fur surging like flames in the sunlight, as if his whole body was silently declaring "I have great taste".
Quan Yi laughed heartlessly: "I'm sorry, I was wrong. It's my fault that the rumors last night almost overshadowed the popularity of the campus rising star competition."
Enzo was puzzled: "Is there such a competition in school?"
"Brother, please take a look at the world beyond combat and machinery. Don't ask like a freshman."
Quan Yi sighed and patiently helped him recall, "It's the popularity contest to select the campus star. Have you forgotten? Lancelot also participated last year and forced us to vote every day."
Enzo suddenly showed a painful expression: "Thank you, don't say anymore."
Quan Yi continued, "And I even became the administrator of his fan club! For no pay!"
Lancelot nodded politely: "Your pleasure, sir."
Under the indescribable gazes of his friends, Lancelot straightened his already straight back and emphasized again, "Even if you exclude your negligible votes, I was still the undisputed number one last year."
“papapa…”
"Yes, yes, but you also said it was last year." Quan Yi stopped Enzo from hitting the fox and suddenly smiled meaningfully, "This year, the Winters family is particularly popular."
Lancelot's expression changed instantly: "Are those stupid ferret siblings?"
Quan Yi shrugged: "Uh-huh!"
Lancelot sneered gloomily: "Come on, anyone in the school is better than them."
“papapa…”
Quan Yi spread his hands with feigned regret. "Although they may have offended you before... the facts are clear. Currently, no new student in the school is more popular than them."
Lancelot was shocked. "What truth? Are these people blind?"
"Don't get excited, just talk about the matter."
Lancelot was silent for a while, and suddenly announced with a blank expression: "I want to apply to repeat the grade and take the exam again!" Then he clicked on the light screen to fill out the application form.
Quan Yi, who was watching the fun, clapped his hands without thinking it was too much. Enzo was filled with disbelief at the development of the situation.
"Just for this crappy competition?"
"It's the campus rising star competition, thank you."
"I give up. Quan Yi, why are you provoking him? Do you want to go through the vote-buying process again?"
"Fuck... I was wrong! Stop it, Lance, or the principal will make you into a scarf."
"Don't even think about it! As long as I'm here, that stupid ferret won't succeed!"
“papapa…”
“papapa…”
The noise in the background grew louder and louder. The arguing people stopped talking and glanced at the flowers where the strange chewing sound came from.
The little chestnut rabbit hugged the flower stem, grabbed the tenderest petals and pulled hard, then began to chew rapidly with its three-petal mouth, ignoring the arguments of the seniors around it.
He was nestled in the flowers, compact with short, thick limbs, a round head and a round body, like two overlapping honey ice cream balls, so round that his neck was invisible.
Hmm...
Lancelot narrowed his eyes and looked at it for a moment, his tail hanging behind him swaying back and forth, and an idea instantly formed in his mind.
The worst thing in the world is to receive an honor together with someone you dislike.
"I'm here to prove to you what the truth is."
Lancelot regained his calm and composed image as a nobleman, turned to the two people beside him with a smile, and said, "Want to make a bet, gentlemen?"
Quan Yi and Enzo looked at each other and said nonchalantly, "Okay."
Youan, who was chewing the petals carefully, was aiming at the next piece of ration. His small ears moved, and as he heard footsteps coming closer, he couldn't help but lower his head a little.
The elegant and lazy tone was full of magnetism, and with a gentle smile that was enough to make people's ears numb and let down their guard, it fell slowly from the top of the head.
Lancelot knelt on one knee and spread out his hand in a gentlemanly manner: "Classmate, do you want to be a heartthrob?"
What a strange question, I don't understand.
You An chewed a piece of grass in his mouth and said, "Whatever."
Lancelot patiently offered, "If you can win first place in the Rising Star Competition, the entire 200,000 yuan prize will be yours, plus an additional 1 million yuan as a reward. How about that?"
Duo Shao? !
A pair of furry claws instantly rested on the palm of his hand.
You An's eyes were determined: "Hello, boss, please, please let me join!"
