"That's it."
Although he appeared calm on the surface, he actually started to chuckle in his heart when he heard what the other person said.
Humph, I was just asking casually, what are you in such a hurry to clarify?
Don't worry, there won't be any misunderstanding. After all, your little wolf cub's thoughts are clear at a glance.
At this moment, Li Youba felt a little happy, but also inexplicably blocked in his heart.
At this moment, she stood on tiptoe with her hands behind her back and suddenly said, "By the way, to celebrate your successful debut in Kengankai, shall we go eat something to celebrate?"
"Ok?"
Upon hearing this, Gong Yang Zhen, who had been staring at the flying helicopter with a complicated expression, was startled for a moment, and then looked at the screen of his mobile phone.
One forty in the morning.
They have come all the way here to watch my debut performance at this hour, so it is only natural to treat them well.
Besides, Xiao Taozi must still be asleep now, but I don’t know if she will wake up and feel hungry and thirsty. I can go buy some food and drinks to bring back.
So I just agreed to it.
The nearby night market was very busy, so the two of them found a popular kebab stall and ate something there. It was already almost late at night.
The time has come to go our separate ways.
At this moment, Gong Yangzhen was carrying a plastic bag containing a few bags of grilled skewers and two boxes of juice and was about to hail a taxi, but he hesitated again and again before standing up and sat down again.
Li Youba, who had originally intended to treat him but failed to persuade him and was quite depressed because he didn't pay the bill, now looked at the other party with a hesitant expression.
I felt a little nervous for no reason.
What are you doing?
Are you going to confess? Eh? In a place like this?
Gong Yangzhen certainly didn't know what she was imagining. He carefully considered his words and said, "Ms. Youba, I see you won a lot of money tonight, which is good... But don't listen to the news from unknown 'insiders' and use the money to buy horse racing or other gambling.
"If you insist on betting, you can place bets on me at Kengan in the future. There will be bets set up by the union for every match. Although the odds may decrease as my fame grows, it is more stable."
Although it may sound a bit like a superficial conversation, Gong Yangzhen has known the other party for some time and they occasionally chat on LINE.
I have some understanding of this person. I don't think she is a hopeless gambler, but she is definitely not a very smart woman.
After all, what smart woman would easily believe the inexplicable so-called "inside information" on the Internet and take all her belongings ALL IN?
We are friends after all, but I still don't want to see her wasting her hard-earned money and ending up sleeping under a bridge with a quilt. This is the only way to save the situation.
After all, he seemed very strong at the moment. Although he didn't know how he would compare to those fist-head fighters because he hadn't fought yet, at least he wouldn't lose to some inexplicable guy.
"I'm very happy that you can come and watch my game today. Let me see your heroic performance in the game some other day... Well, that's all I have to say. That's it. Good night in advance."
"..."
He stared at his receding back in a daze until the staff who was cleaning up the mess whispered a reminder to him. Li Youba quickly got up and left the table, but suddenly found that his face was slightly hot.
Am I...being lectured by my junior?
Damn it, nothing has even been done yet and this little wolf cub is already starting to take charge of the household?
Ambitious, ah, ambitious!
but.
"…Will you place a bet?"
It seems that you have great confidence in yourself, right?
The cold wind in the middle of the night slowly blew across his cheeks, taking away the slight dryness on his face. Li Youba walked on the street where there were still pedestrians passing by, and smiled knowingly for no reason.
"How could I not trust your courage?"
"In that case, I'll keep betting on you from now on, stupid wolf... You have to keep winning and don't let me down."
Chapter 66: The Queen's Spare Time
When I got home, as expected, Taoi Satsuki was still sleeping, her long cherry-pink hair was disheveled, and her breathing was long and even.
After all, it was supposed to be sleep time, and she was really tired.
After gently placing the food and drinks he brought back on the table, Gong Yangzhen tucked the quilt for Tao Jing Wu Yue again, then took off his clothes and walked naked to the bathroom.
Turn on the shower, apply shampoo and shower gel, and use the shower to rinse off the sweat and dust on your body.
At the same time, my mind slowly dived down, down...
After a period of darkness, he set foot on the barren land of the Fighting Spirit Arena again.
"call……"
A breeze blew by, fluttering the tattered battle flag. Surrounding it were broken walls, only the embers of the bonfire remained, and - in front of them was a towering pillar that stood tall and straight.
This was a scene that Gong Yangzhen had seen countless times, so it was nothing new to him.
But this time was different. He had seen so many things by touching the stone pillars covered with totems.
At this moment, Gong Yang Zhen walked to the side of the towering stone pillar, hesitated slightly, then raised his hand and gently stroked the uneven and mottled surface.
"Well!--"
Sure enough, as he moved, a certain "intention" was once again transmitted to him through the point where his palms touched. One after another, majestic figures like wild beasts, gods and demons appeared before his eyes, and all kinds of low hums like complaints and low singing sounded in his ears again.
There was a giant bear with thunder swirling around its body and a body as big as a mountain, roaring angrily.
There is a mysterious sacred being traveling across the star realm with a dreamlike body, and beside him a small band of wood spirits is playing music happily.
There was also a dragon-shaped creature with a star-shining body that seemed to be made of the universe. Its body was so huge that there were actually two large nebulae hovering in its claws.
Seeing this, Gong Yang Zhen let go of his hand with a slight shock, interrupting this inexplicable connection.
Some things, just witnessing their existence with your own eyes, can make you feel insignificant, like a drop in the ocean.
“…It’s not an illusion after all.”
"There are many more heroes' powers hidden in this fighting spirit arena, just like the power of the 'Zuan Madman' in me."
"It's just that I haven't achieved the power of my mind before, and my mind has never dived so deep, so I have never noticed it. It was not until today that I saw their great power."
"And now what I want to know is, will these powers, like Mondo's life force, come to me one day?"
However, no one could answer Gong Yang Zhen's question at this moment.
Even the Fighting Spirit Arena was silent. When there was no "Fighting Spirit" battle going on, it was more like a silent witness, witnessing Gong Yang Zhen's life without communicating with him.
"..."
There is no answer after all, and these are still too far away for Gong Yang Zhen.
Now he is just a new fighting spirit who has not even filled up the four rune slots and six equipment bars.
Still reluctant, he finally turned away from the stone pillar. Gong Yang Zhen looked up at the flowing light and stone slabs that symbolized the competition stage.
At the same time, as if capturing his thoughts, the voice of the AI announcer sounded at the right time.
[Equipment purchase or rune enhancement? ]
【Choose one of the two! 】
While the AI announcer was speaking passionately, Gong Yang Zhen had already prepared the bath water. The water in the bathtub was dyed azure by the bath additive and was filled with mist.
At this moment, he slowly lay down in the bathtub and unconsciously let out a comfortable groan.
His eyes were still closed, and his mind was still looking at the stone slab in the Fighting Spirit Arena. At this moment, the gift box-shaped relief seemed to be glowing where the light stopped.
"Rune strengthening. I only need three more to fill the slot. See if you can give me another growth rune."
【Oh! I really admire them. 】
[If I had to choose between three equally powerful super powers, I think I would go crazy.]
“…Who says it’s not true?”
Three rays of light suddenly appeared before his eyes, and then lined up in a row.
When the light slowly faded away, Gong Yang Zhen's eyes narrowed slightly.
Then I saw the colors of the three suspended runes.
…Gold again.
..............................
When Tao Jing Satsuki woke up from her deep sleep, the sun was shining brightly outside the window.
The first thing she saw when she woke up was Gong Yang Zhen, who had not slept all night and was sitting there watching something on his phone.
...A Zhen?
Subconsciously, I wanted to call out softly, but the moment I opened my mouth, I realized that my throat was so dry.
Suddenly, a slight cough sounded.
"…Little Peach?"
Gong Yang Zhen was of course the first to notice the unusual movement here. He quickly stood up and brought the cup of water over, bringing the cup to Tao Jing Wu Yue's slightly dry lips.
Then I watched her drink the water bit by bit, with a relaxed look on her face.
"Ah! So comfortable...A Zhen, good morning!"
"It's already noon...but good morning anyway. Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Taozi."
"Hey hey hey."
Seeing Tao Jing Wu Yue was about to get up, Gong Yang Zhen drew the curtains and turned on the indoor light. As expected, when he lifted the quilt, he saw a crystal clear scene.
Then the little girl sat on the edge of the bed, her little face flushed as she watched her boyfriend take the clothes she wore yesterday from the clothesline.
The pantyhose that had been torn into pieces had already died gloriously, and the clothes worn under the coat had already been washed and dried by Gong Yangzhen at night, and were only slightly moist now.
After touching the thin cotton pad which still had a faint hint of moisture, Gong Yang Zhen turned around and said, "Go take a shower first. I'll use a hair dryer to blow dry your clothes so they'll be more comfortable to wear."
"Good~"
Hearing this, she immediately stood up and walked towards the bathroom, but her legs went weak and she almost sat down on the ground. Taoi Satsuki blinked and was shocked to find that her body felt like it had been hit by a truck and was about to fall apart.
How, how could this happen?
"…You seem exhausted. Sorry, I guess I was too rude."
"No, it's obviously very comfortable."
It's just that I felt too comfortable, like I was about to become a Buddha, and my legs are still weak.
There was no other way, Gong Yang Zhen could only put down the cloth in his hand, picked up the little girl who was holding the bedside table and couldn't walk, and walked to the bathroom to wash her himself.
At the same time, he told her everything about the battle in the early hours of the morning.
When he mentioned that his opponent was pretending to be dead and was about to dig out his eyes, Tao Jing Satsuki immediately grabbed his hand holding the shower head and said, "No, are you okay?"
"Of course not, Taozi, there is something I should have told you a long time ago, that is, I am really tough and can take a beating... Look, there is no injury at all."
As he spoke, he leaned closer to let the little girl look around.
It's not that he doesn't want to hide this matter, but he has to tell it to see the other party's anxious expression. Gong Yang Zhen doesn't have that kind of bad taste.
However, with Taoi Satsuki's intelligence gathering ability, she would probably be able to find the video of the game after returning home, so she might as well give instructions in advance.
But speaking of "hiding"...
After a little hesitation, Gong Yang Zhen still said something that was giving him a headache at the moment.
This was something that he thought should not be hidden from Taoi Satsuki.
whats the matter?
"..."
"The Wu clan... I didn't expect there is such a clan. They actively select and optimize, absorb strong people to join the clan, and thus optimize the genes of the clan members from generation to generation..."
“Yes, this is how they survive and thrive.”
"And Ah Zhen, are you the husband chosen by classmate Wu Jialuo Luo?"
"……Yes."
