Chapter 63
The Pre-Civilization was a perfect utopia.
The people inside aren't too scheming or backstabbing.
She had forgotten this fact, as this land had been polluted for so long.
Therefore, Kal'tsit quickly changed her attitude and looked at Xiao Huasheng with the utmost sincerity.
"I need your help, Ms. Xiao. You...you know more than the Doctor. I hope you can stop this war," she pleaded with Xiao Huasheng.
It's like a domesticated kitten that's been beaten by a stray cat outside, and then goes home to seek its owner's support.
"War... what? Why do we have to fight?"
Now it was Xiao Huasheng's turn to be dumbfounded.
Angela's voice added fuel to the fire.
[The double energy tank is fully expanded; the minimum energy requirement is 5%, so you can play however you want.]
Xiao Huasheng has twice the energy to store now, and is no longer as weak and powerless as before.
Soon, everyone knew what a numerical monster was.
Chapter 20: 'Iced' Candied Hawthorn Berries [1 Chapter]
[Current energy reserves are at 42%. It is recommended that the supervisor treat the Infected again to replenish their energy.]
Angela's voice came through, speaking slowly.
With the energy bars doubled in capacity, it's obvious that you should store more energy.
This is equivalent to Xiao Huasheng having already used 16% of the original energy bar's energy.
This aroused Xiao Huasheng's curiosity, and she muttered to herself.
"How could this happen? I feel like I've been very frugal!"
Angela also offered her answer to this.
[Candied hawthorn berries use 2 units of energy, apple pie uses 4 units of energy. The cost of your desserts alone is equivalent to a day's wages for one employee. Congratulations, you're now a qualified capitalist.]
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huasheng was struck dumb, and she silently licked the candied hawthorn in her hand, feeling extremely guilty.
"Let's avoid doing things like this... even though the desserts I came up with are delicious." Xiao Huasheng muttered to himself, licking the cola-flavored candied hawthorn in his hand.
[I agree, but I didn't get to eat any candied hawthorns.]
There's no doubt that Angela was subtly implying that she wasn't included in the meal.
There was no objection to Xiao Huasheng's use of energy.
The desserts created using the Reality-Warping Ability are not only fast, but also have a wonderful taste that is hard for ordinary people to imagine.
After all, such products have essentially transcended the realm of food and are approaching the limits of sensory experience.
If Xiao Huasheng wanted to, he could even make an apple-flavored orange.
If all you want is happiness, these desserts offer a joy that even Angel couldn't imagine.
"Speaking of which, Angela, is there any way to save energy? We could make more desserts with the energy saved," the unambitious little gluttonous Angel asked.
[In fact, I discovered several operations that utilize Reality-Warping Ability, which result in extremely high energy consumption.]
"Tell me about it?" she asked curiously.
Angela quickly listed several energy-intensive operations, while Xiao Huasheng listened and conversed.
At this moment, Kal'tsit and Amiya witnessed Xiao Huasheng's conversation with thin air.
"Sister Xiao Huasheng?" Amiya asked in confusion.
Kal'tsit quietly said, "She's talking to AI, Amiya. Let's wait quietly until she's finished."
"All right..."
Amiya nodded obediently, but her fingers unconsciously caressed the string of glistening candied hawthorns.
Kids love desserts.
Amiya is a child too.
The amber-colored icing shimmered with a faint luster.
Each hawthorn berry is coated in sugar, and just looking at them makes you feel sweet.
She tentatively stuck out the tip of her tongue and gently licked it.
The moment the tip of your tongue touches the sugar coating.
In an instant, the sugar shell covered with white frost transformed into a cascading galaxy on the tip of the tongue.
An unprecedented sweetness explodes on the taste buds! It transforms into millions of transparent butterflies fluttering into the depths of the mind.
The gloom that had lingered in my heart for days vanished without a trace in the sweet torrent, like morning mist exposed to direct sunlight.
Amiya's wide eyes shimmered with iridescent light, and she seemed to see herself standing on a sea of clouds made of cotton candy, every cell in her body leaping with joy and laughter.
Her pupils dilated suddenly as she was enveloped in this blissful, all-encompassing pleasure.
So happy!
Amiya immediately raised her hand, waving the candied hawthorn around, and quickly called out to Kal'tsit in a soft voice.
"Dr. Kal'tsit, Dr. Kal'tsit..."
"Amiya? What's wrong?"
As Kal'tsit gazed at Amiya hopping around beneath him like a little rabbit, a question arose in his mind.
"Try it, have a bite!"
Amiya pointed at the candied hawthorn skewer, speaking urgently.
She also wanted Kal'tsit to try the candied hawthorn.
Seeing Amiya's appearance, Kal'tsit, who originally wanted to refuse, also took a lick out of curiosity.
Instantly, Kal'tsit's pupils also dilated sharply.
I'm so cold!
Kal'tsit and Amiya each took a bite, slowly enjoying the candied hawthorn.
A little rabbit and a little cat were happily eating dessert.
After Xiao Huasheng finished his long phone conversation with Angela, he suddenly noticed Kal'tsit's drooling expression.
Upon being discovered, Kal'tsit immediately covered her mouth and asked, her face flushed.
"Ms. Xiao... this candied hawthorn skewer? Are you sure it's not some kind of hallucinogen?"
"This is a candied hawthorn that will clear away your troubles," Xiao Huasheng said, then, while eating it, she asked in confusion, "What's wrong? It looks no different from a regular candied hawthorn."
If there are no worries in your heart, then naturally there will be no effect.
Kal'tsit opened her mouth, then closed it again.
She then realized with a start that what Xiao Huasheng had said was true.
With just one bite, all the deep-seated worries in her heart vanished, and she gained more courage to face the future.
This is completely different from the temporary pleasure of hallucinogens; it is food that works entirely on the mind.
It can help people forget their current troubles and give them more courage to face the future amidst sweetness.
Amiya also covered her mouth; she and Kal'tsit had discovered the same effect.
Do you think it tastes good?
Xiao Huasheng smiled, revealing his canine teeth slightly.
Smack, smack
Two more candied hawthorns appeared in her hand. "If you want more, I have some more."
[Manager, I think it's time to start providing some employee benefits.]
I was stunned for a moment.
When Amiya and Kal'tsit were about to take the candied hawthorns...
As Angela spoke, she put both candied hawthorns from her hand into Lobotomy Corporation.
Xiao Huasheng's eyes widened; he hadn't expected Angela to be so envious.
Aside from the unaffected, carefree red-haired Angel.
Soon, everyone present was enjoying themselves.
In this brief interlude.
Xiao Huasheng, looking at Kal'tsit had just finished a candied hawthorn and was moved to tears, said, "By the way, I need to continue treating the Infected. Call me if you need anything."
She looked at Amiya and Kal'tsit and spoke.
The energy bar has just been expanded, so now is the perfect time to start accumulating energy again.
Without energy, Xiao Huasheng is just a punching bag when people are watching him.
The poor Angel didn't want to become a punching bag, so he was trying hard to gather his energy.
Kal'tsit was not surprised that she mentioned treating the Infected.
"So it really was you who made this, Madam?" Kal'tsit said quite respectfully, and then she took the initiative to ask for permission.
"Could we accompany you?"
"Don't you still have things to do? You still have things to deal with in Lungmen, right?" Xiao Huasheng asked, puzzled.
"None of that matters anymore, Rhodes Island will provide full assistance."
Kal'tsit made a direct guarantee as she spoke.
She added, "The Doctor is on her way; you might know her too..."
Kal'tsit is preparing to let Xiao Huasheng meet the Doctor.
Chapter 21: I Think You're a White-Haired, Soft, Sickly Female PhD Student [2 Updates]
Upon arriving at the designated location, Xiao Huasheng met the Doctor that Kal'tsit had mentioned.
The Doctor simply looked at her in silence.
The Doctor was wearing Rhodes Island's uniform, his face obscured by the shadow of the hood, revealing only his taut jawline.
Beside him, Franka and several elite operators vigilantly surveyed their surroundings, their weapons poised to respond to any unforeseen circumstances.
A sense of oppressive tension filled the air, making even breathing heavy.
"Dr. Kal'tsit, you've come at just the right time." Franka stepped forward quickly, her voice low and urgent, her fox-like ears perked up nervously.
"The situation is worse than we anticipated. The Reunion Movement has completely infiltrated Lungmen, and they're serious now."
Kal'tsit was silent for a moment. "Doctor, what do you think we should do in this situation?"
The Doctor was in silence when a very cute and clear female voice came from under his hood.
"We don't have enough troops to leave here."
Kal'tsit nodded, then spoke again to the Doctor.
"But before that, there's something even more important I'd like to introduce you to this person." Kal'tsit introduced the unremarkable Angel who had been walking behind them. "Doctor, this is Ms. Xiao, someone from your generation."
Franka was surprised and asked curiously.
"Wait a minute? Isn't that Exusiai?" Just now, they had been working with Penguin Logistics, so they were very familiar with this optimistic red-haired Angel.
Amiya explained, "She just looks like Miss Exusiai; they are completely different people."
Franka and the other operators all showed expressions of curiosity.
What's the difference?
The appearance of the optimist Angel was almost identical.
Then they heard the Doctor's voice.
Xiao Huasheng immediately became interested.
