Chapter 44: She is Special
Bridgehead Restaurant.
Tian Xiang generously laid out one yuan and ninety cents, telling Meng Cheng'an to order whatever he wanted to eat.
When coming here to work, Hu Honglian had given her daughter five yuan for meals.
Tian Xiang had exchanged three yuan for meal tickets, spent ten cents on steamed buns in the morning, and had one yuan and ninety cents left. She took out every single coin without hiding a single cent.
The available dishes at Bridgehead Restaurant today included steamed pork with rice flour, braised fish chunks, spiced pig trotters, as well as twice-cooked pork and lean meat which were available every day.
Despite her absent-minded state and slightly blurred vision, she could still clearly see that the person before her was Ji Chuan, whom she had just encountered at the tavern.
Chen Yin gave a wry smile. She was not a god; what could she do to prevent this disaster from happening?
"Brother Xia, sob, sob." Yingying finally regained her consciousness, and seeing that it was Xia Tian, she immediately burst into tears.
"Hah, I still don't know my junior brother's honorable name." Mu Jue smiled non-committally and said.
Frowning, Jason walked through the dilapidated factory, avoided a few oversized rats, and burned away a few obstructing spiderwebs before finally finding that corner according to the instructions on the photo.
When the man in black uttered those slightly perplexed words, Ji Chuan was somewhat surprised and looked at him again.
Glancing sideways at his companions, Qiu Zhi and the other two all shook their heads slightly. Although the current timing was certainly good, they no longer dared to act rashly. Not to mention that there was an expert of the same tier guarding the place, Gan Bai and his three companions were now assisting ahead, making success impossible.
Meng Xin had this capability, but just as he had once said, he hoped things would happen naturally. And this obviously took time. This was also what he found vexing.
"I know who you are, the shopkeeper!" Meng Xin patted the shopkeeper's shoulder, making a resounding thud.
What was even more tragic was that, unaware of the deep blood feud between Dongfang Bubai and Ren Woxing, the latter had actually given this child the surname Zhu and the given name Wuming, commonly referred to as Zhu Ba.
This man was tall, imposing, and handsome. What made him most unique was his clothing; it did not look like the attire of Lin Yu and his contemporaries' era, but rather resembled ancient animal-skin garments, worn like a jacket. His facial features were resolute and strong, giving off a masculine vibe.
Reaching out to take the Green Spirit Pill, although he knew its value was no less than that of the Mystic Flame Pill, Lin Yu showed no polite hesitation. He knew that refusing it would make him a burden instead, and this Green Spirit Pill could be considered earned in exchange for all his Spirit-Restoring Pills.
He was well aware of the capabilities of the Royal Wind-Shattering Wings and naturally knew that relying solely on his own abilities, it would be impossible to contend against this boundary artifact.
Sardinian Royal Aerospace had spared no expense, investing massive funds to establish a military facility equipped with two sets of lasers and one set of electromagnetic railguns—the future returns of such an investment were immeasurable. Any nation wishing to land on the moon would have to face these weapons.
Yet Huangfu Xing could not possibly be ignorant of planets influenced by the commander effect. Since he knew, why would Earth put forth such a place? Most likely, either Earth had tricked Huangfu Xing, or Earth was unwilling to fall into a trap set by Huangfu Xing.
Seeing that Egsy had begun to beat around the bush and talk about other unimportant matters, Avi stopped asking further questions. After all, even the recently formed Knights Templar had gained the First Prince's trust, and their status was not something a newcomer like him could match.
This time, aided by the earth-attribute source crystal, the array bracelet emitted a hazy halo, and the formation within it was activated.
"If you want to stay out of danger, just follow my command." Adjusting the Tang saber hanging at his left waist, he looked as calm and unconcerned as if nothing was happening, nor ever would.
"Very well, it is time for us to return to the terms of the truce." Chief of Staff Stanley gave an exploratory cough and then spoke in a gentle tone.
"What a magnificent Profound Ice Flood Dragon! I must get its inner core!" Du Meng was exceptionally excited, her hands forming seals in rapid succession as sharp wooden spikes and hard boulders sprouted all across the ground where the Profound Ice Flood Dragon resided.
