Chapter 5
［Nutritious instant noodles that won’t make you fat］［Balanced street snacks］［Various types of zero-burden milk tea］［Blue Star fruits］［Other cosmic foods that Blue Star People can eat］… Fu Yue looked at this strange menu that exuded a hint of monotony, and within that monotony, a little happiness. The webpage had big words saying "Out of this world, nutritious delicious meals with zero burden" and "Delicious and not fattening, makes you crave for more," giving her a familiar sense of exaggerated advertising just like a certain famous online shopping platform.
Could this kind of heavenly food really exist?
Fu Yue skeptically ordered a plate of chicken leg rice from the Fuzhou Hotel, took a careful bite, and her eyes lit up instantly.
Will she get fat after eating it, she doesn’t know, but the taste is definitely as delicious as the Blue Star’s!
After being hungry for a long time, she ate until very full in one go. After sitting for a while, Fu Yue finally felt like getting up and walking around the room to help with digestion.
As she walked, she came to the glass wall on the left that she had always been afraid of. The originally red translucent flowing colors had now turned into white translucent colors in a relatively calm state.
Realizing that the neighbor next door was actually just a slime now, Fu Yue tried tapping on the glass, remembering Sister Minli’s words, "If it likes you, it will keep reacting to you."
Considering the entire glass was red and translucent when she woke up, she figured that this new colleague must be quite welcoming to her, right?
Sure enough, as soon as she tapped, the slime wiggled and gathered where she had tapped. At this moment, Fu Yue could see its appearance clearly, like a moving jelly, looking quite cute.
Indeed, the fear from ignorance before.
It squished and tried hard to get close to where she placed her hand, continuously shaking slightly as if silently urging her to continue playing this game. This reminded Fu Yue of the neighbor’s dog that used to be there, which would always come over and nudge her whenever it saw her holding something, as if silently asking her to play together.
But there was never enough time before, so they always missed each other, and eventually the dog was sent elsewhere by the neighbor and never returned.
This time, Fu Yue had plenty of free time to play around. She tapped on the left and then the right, and the slime quickly followed her taps, moving fast around her.
Sometimes, she would purposely tap on two places at the same time. Watching the slime spin in confusion for a while, it then split into two pieces and moved towards their destination with a funny sound. Fu Yue found it amusing, and the tension she had been feeling since arriving on the unfamiliar planet slowly eased.
After playing for a while, Fu Yue, feeling a bit tired, leaned back on the nutrition pod.
It’s time to do something productive.
Sensing her needs, the chip in her brain quickly pulled up information on the Zerg tribe and Arnold, directly displaying it on Fu Yue’s retina.
[The Kurds are the top tribe of the Zerg, excelling in various fields in the universe. Especially in terms of war, they have naturally strong physical abilities, and their empire is ruled by various generals leading different Star Domains. They have a large territory in the universe, and their glorious victories date back to the year xxx when they started…]
She skipped the details of the upcoming wars, but she knew that the Kurds were a tribe keen on using force.
The key was still her adopter.
[Arnold, one of the most famous generals among the Kurds. He was created as part of the empire’s elite program, using suitable genes taken from the xxx gene bank. Showing exceptional results in tests from a young age, he entered the empire’s elite training center and later moved on to the empire’s military academy.
After graduating, he joined the Empire’s army and had never lost a battle. He has now completed the conquest of another Star Domain.
In the year xxx of the star calendar, in the land of xx, he fought against the xx tribe and emerged victorious.
The area where his direct troops are located is Junyao Star, with the Military Victory Star as the top three satellites.
……]
Just listing his military achievements would already fill a very long list. Adding his titles, territories, and armies, it would easily span over ten pages.
Fu Yue quickly scanned through the documents, feeling more and more overwhelmed by the weight of the accomplishments she needed to match.
This boss was not just born through genetic selection in the gene pool, but he was flawless in his elite life. He ascended to the peak only by relying on his extraordinary strength, with an illustrious career that could be used as material for a textbook or a bestseller in a male-targeted literature list.
Recalling the expressionless man she had seen before, Fu Yue now perceived him through a different lens, envisioning him as exuding an aura of dominance.
Even his previously unsettling smile now seemed to hold some mysterious significance in this moment.
Oh – how can she quickly and accurately lift her dear thighs?
Fu Yue quickly searched the entire Star Domain website for Arnold-related video news, hoping to find some of his personal information. However, the information on these important figures is highly confidential, so she couldn’t find anything. But Fu Yue didn’t give up.
Randomly searching online, she stumbled upon the figure of this great general on a webpage that announced military news.
The text "Junyao Star’s Second Military District will be inspected by General Arnold on site" appeared in her sight.
Glancing at the date… it seems like, it’s today?
In the vast Second Military District of Junyao Star, a tense and orderly military parade was taking place. But the parade was more than just a display, the soldiers were directly asked to perform real combat exercises to test the quality of the randomly selected soldiers.
Two warship legions in the vacuum of tens of thousands of meters had already raised their protective shields in the air, both piloting simulated warships and engaging in intense imaginary space battles.
Meanwhile, on the vast ground below, General Arnold was personally inspecting the army.
Another huge creature lay upside down on the ground, causing the ground to tremble slightly. In contrast, Arnold, who had just defeated it, was still in a weaker humanoid form.
Arnold still had a blank expression on his face, but he glanced sideways and quickly took the incapacitated marine in the corner down to the medical bay.
He straightened his slightly messy clothes, looking energetic and without any visible injuries. But this was already the fifteenth marine to go down today.
Just as Arnold pointed to the next marine, a voice interrupted him, "General, the detailed report from the military district is ready."
Arnold turned and looked at his deputy, Peidi. He followed the deputy out of the area where the marines were training.
Peidi had been loyal to Arnold since their time at military school. Arnold had shown exceptional strength at school, and he always trusted his own judgment.
It turned out he was right. After graduating from school and joining the army, Arnold swiftly rose through the ranks with his outstanding skills and military talent, leading his first army to victory quietly. He later continued to win battles, creating an unbeatable empire.
He had reached his current position due to his dedicated support and flawless work.
But now was not the time to relax, staying alert and worrying for the general was his top priority.
As he thought this, his always sharp and efficient superior suddenly asked him a question.
Is this a test for his work? Peidi, feeling nervous and absent-minded, missed the question like this.
Arnold had to repeat again, "How to increase strangers’ likability?"
Is the general testing his negotiation skills with the strangers from the Star Domain? Peidi answered loudly, "The Zerg tribe aims to showcase their strong military power to gain respect from other tribes."
Arnold neither agreed nor disagreed to the answer, and continued with his subordinates to the conference center for a two-day military district meeting.
-At noon two days later, Fu Yue received another 3D video call from Zhang Minli.
It was lunchtime for both of them. Without much ado, they started chatting while eating.
During the conversation, Zhang Minli noticed that Fu Yue only had a vegetarian dish for lunch, so she recommended the chicken wings she was having.
"These chicken wings are crunchy on the outside and tender inside…" Before finishing the sentence, Fu Yue started feeling sick and vomited.
After she finished vomiting, Fu Yue sat back in front of the screen. She took a sip from the water cup brought to her and weakly said, "Sorry, recently I keep receiving uncensored documentaries of the Zerg tribe battling on the battlefield every morning and afternoon."
Maybe it was because she had been searching for Arnold frequently lately. He appeared in most of the documentaries.
These high-quality 3D videos mostly show scenes of intense fighting between giant bugs and humanoid creatures, like a game that never ends, with very realistic sound effects.
These scenes were not only on her screen anymore, they even got into her mind. Last night, she even dreamt about the gruesome image of Arnold’s scary smile followed by him biting and eating her flesh, bones and all.
"I might not be able to eat meat for a week, or even a month." Fu Yue weakly smiled across.
Zhang Minli didn’t know how to fix programming bugs, but seeing Fu Yue like this, she kindly suggested, "Why don’t you try a holographic game called Battle Arena? I often use it to relieve stress and get some exercise too."
"Hmm, I’ll try it later."
After quickly finishing lunch, Fu Yue, feeling mentally exhausted, climbed into the nutrient pod, choosing to sleep all day to avoid the latest nightmare videos in the afternoon.
