With Yimir joining in, Wu Jie shared the meal with her.
Compared to Circe, Ymir also began to learn the human way of eating, but she was still more accustomed to using her hands.
She imitated the way Wu Jie cut meat just now, and turned her tentacles into a sharp blade. With just a light stroke, a piece of meat slid off like cutting butter. The blade she turned her hands into was extremely sharp.
When Wu Jie saw this scene, he suddenly remembered the previous battle between Sersi and Black Pearl. He is still very curious about how hard the weapons they transformed with their hands are.
It seems that I should find a chance to ask later. Now we are eating, so let’s not discuss those things.
Wu Jie did not rush to eat, but waited for Imir to taste it before eating.
He wanted to see Ymir's reaction.
There is a big contrast between the way Ymir eats and that of Circe. Circe always eats in a straightforward manner. Although she also uses "tableware", it is always very direct.
But Imir likes to chew slowly, just like Wu Jie and the others. I don’t know if she learned it from Wu Jie after seeing how he ate, or if she was like that before.
After a while, seeing that Yimiel had finally finished his first bite, Wu Jie asked with interest, "How does it taste?"
Ymir looked at the delicious food on the plate, seeming to think. After about three or four seconds, she said, "It's strange. You humans like to add a lot of trace elements to your food to enhance its taste, and there are some things I can't understand. We on Ins never cook like this. We only use energy to crisp the food for easy absorption, and then use simple energy processing to remove odors to ensure it is not uncomfortable to eat. This is a very advanced method. Even in our royal city, the food preparation methods used by the royal family are no different from those used by ordinary people. The only difference is the preciousness of the ingredients. I have to say that your methods are very interesting."
Wu Jie also became interested at this moment and said, "What about the worlds that you invaded before, have you learned about their food culture?"
Ymir shook his head and said, "I've never had a chance like today to sit face to face with an alien and discuss food culture. I can say this, human, you're the first alien to want to recruit one of us as your subordinates. In the worlds we invaded before, if we Insians were captured, we were either killed or used directly for experiments, and you were the first to take us in as your subordinates."
Wu Jie just smiled slightly and explained lightly: "Because, I believe that in the universe, no matter how different the races are, there must be the same thing, and there is also the same thing that connects all existences."
Yimi suddenly felt a little curious. She really wanted to know what this bold earthling was talking about, and what kind of existence could connect everything in the universe?
"What is that?"
Wu Jie just smiled slightly: "Love."
Yimi was stunned: "Love?"
"Why, is there no love in your world?"
Hearing Wu Jie's question, Yimi suddenly fell silent. She said nothing, but just continued to eat the food silently, as if she was lost in thought.
Of course, Sersi was listening the whole time, devouring the delicious food with big mouthfuls, her mouth full of grease, looking a bit funny and cute. The conversation between Wu Jie and Ymir had also caught her attention, and she listened carefully the whole time.
"Love...?" Circe fell silent because of this word and even forgot to eat.
Skadi and Hestia were also listening to the conversation between the commander and them. They noticed the changes in Circe and Ymir. They looked at each other and wondered if the commander's plan was really effective?
The two suddenly remembered that crazy plan, and now they realized that it seemed that the commander's direction was still effective for now, but they were not sure where this effect would lead humanity.
"Love..." Skadi listened to her commander's words and thought about it, and so did Hestia.
Unexpectedly, the four people here, both humans and aliens, fell silent because of Wu Jie's words, so that the scene on Wu Jie's side seemed a little weird.
However, Wu Jie didn't care. Instead, he silently put the food into his mouth and slowly savored Skadi's craftsmanship.
Time passed by minute by minute. Wu Jie put down the cutlery in his hand and said with a smile: "Skati, your food is also very good. I have to give you a ten."
Skadi was originally thinking, but was suddenly interrupted by Wu Jie's words. She said in a feigned annoyance: "The commander just praised Hestia for such a long time, but now he is so perfunctory to me, just saying it's very good and ending it."
Wu Jie smiled slightly: "Skadi, your skills must have been refined. Naturally, they are more professional than Hestia's. I can't find any faults, so naturally I give you a ten. In terms of technique, you win."
Skadi laughed: "Hestia, I'm sorry, but I won this game."
As a result, before Skadi could finish being proud, Wu Jie immediately said, "Although Skadi won in terms of technique, Hestia, your dish is more favored by me because it contains rich emotions. In this respect, Hestia, you win."
"Ha! I knew that the commander would not make a mistake! Hehe, Skadi, how about it?" Hestia was suddenly as happy as a little girl. She kept dancing and gesticulating in front of Skadi, not caring about her image as the deputy captain of the central flag at all.
It was as if she was very proud of having won against some aspect of Skadi...
Skadi wasn't angry at Hestia's crazy antics, because she knew her too well. She said in a helpless tone, "It seems our new commander knows how to strike a balance. He's a Dragonborn, so his words are smooth and harmonious, and he's a master of the essence of Tai Chi. I'll give each of them a piece of candy, and we won't offend anyone..."
Wu Jie laughed and stood up. "That's not necessarily true. I'm just speaking from the heart. Although Tai Chi is a specialty of our Dragon Country, everything I said just now really came from the bottom of my heart."
At this moment, Sersi suddenly walked up to Wu Jie and said, "Human, tell me if what I cooked is delicious."
Wu Jie was stunned for a moment, but he finally reacted: "It's delicious, of course it's delicious. Although you are lacking in the art of food, Sersi, I have to say that the food you cook is very good at efficient use of energy. This is your strength, and I like it very much."
Hearing Wu Jie praising her strengths and saying that he liked her, Sissi felt unusually happy at this moment, and even her face turned red.
