Chapter 3: The Entrusted Gift
Location: Taiwan Ti on the bed seeinally planned to just secretly put it beside hi sister didn’t say to wake him upHowever, just when I was about five steps away, that pair of deep eyes suddenly opened
“Uh, I’ first?” If I keep getting stared at like this, I’ll get creeped out too, so I could only start the conversationover”
The snake-bodied person narrowed his eyes as he looked atwhile, and finally opened his mouth slowly: “Just put it at the side”
“Oh…it’s best to eat this while it’s hot” Or else if you wait until it’s cold, you’ll see the oil floating up
Yuli clie snake tail ot up on the wrong side of the bed, right? I’m honestly a bit afraid that snake body would suddenly roll over here
But thankfully it didn’t
Withdrawing his snake half to the bed, Yuli felt about the bed, then tossed a glass cube about the size of a palht that box and looked it overThe cube was see-through and had no lid, cohtly transparent thick liquidIt looked quite pretty, a bit similar to the color of the red wine that Randall often held: “So pretty…” Turning it around, I noticed that there seemed to be a faint pattern on the transparent box, so small that you had to look very carefully to be able to see it
“Contained inside is snake venomIt’s best to not open it unless you need it” The person picking up the bowl and chopsticks toldfact with the kind of tone as if that was just candy
“…Snake veno at that small box, I suddenly felt that it wasn’t pretty at all
“It’s refined venom so it can be used, whether it’s on the Ghost Tribe or Demon Clan, evil spirits and whatnotUp to now, I haven’t encounteredup pieces ofthe with using this thing as a gift
Looking at the glass box, I was abruptly a bit afraid that the box h custo the box, I looked at the half-snake person as currently chewing the food: “U to do next?” I remembered that Senior said he would settle this probleht be more co here is too taxing for theht…
Dark eyes looked over at me
“Uh, it’s fine if you don’t want to say it” I i to do anything” Putting down the bowl that he only drank half of, Yuli glanced atLizzie and the others go to the place of rest would be the right thing to do”
“Then what about you?” I noticed that his tone seeive huuess, Yuli probably won’t say anything else
When he continued to pick up his bowl and eat, I moved back to where I was beforeThere were already several little ani around on the ground, revealing a pose that o the wrong way
“Over here” Lizzie, as tidying the table, waved toyou to cohtly and looked around at the aniround
“Oh…not at all, it’s fine as long as everyone’s happy” Very oddly, I suddenly found that I was no longer as scared of these things as I hen I cauardians
“Can I trouble you with sos in her hands, and suddenly asked a question in all seriousness
“Aih? If I can help you…as long as it’s not robbing, setting fires or killing someone, I can consider it” I first stated the conditions, or else it’d be very “interesting” if she asked ht
“Oh, it has nothing to do with that” Tilting her head, Lizzie took off a necklace from her neck, a silver chain and a pendant that was a aemstoneIt looked very refined: “Please helpvery wellThat’ll be all”
I took that necklaceThe aemstone was unexpectedly warm rather than cold: “Okay, I will hand it to Lily” Even though I can’t guess at their true relationshi+p, I think they probably have a friendshi+p, so handing so over shouldn’t be unusual
Lizzie shtly: “Thank you so htDo you needat her coround in the rooo backat that half-snake person ent back to sleeping on the bed again, I had a coain”
And so, Lizzie sent me off at the door
After I turned around, the electronic door behind me closed, and locked itself on its own
The atmosphere quieted down in an instant
As if they never existed
“Now you should understand why it’s so thorny”
I raisedby the stairsHe still had a big coat on him, as if he had just co at the necklace inthat has to be given to Lily, it’d be better if I find a pretty box or bag
Senior didn’t say anythingTurning his head, he simply walked up, and I ran after him
Probably because of the o all the way to the deckInstead, he stopped at an open-air bar in the shi+pIt was a recreational area designed to be outside, where you could go out and get a scenic seat after ordering a drink; there were lights hanging all around the seats, lighting it up so that it seems to have plenty of that sort of mood
But it’s not like I want to say this, when Senior opened the door and headed outside, the icy sea breeze, which who knows rees, directly pounced onme want to turn around and escape for three seconds
There were several people scattered about in the open-air seats outsideBut they all wore big coats, so when you glanced over, they looked like a bunch of balls
“Se, Senior, can I go back and get a coat first?” Holding the drink, I felt lared atcoat fro onhis own drink
I hurriedly put the coat onThe texture was very goodI wonder what it’s made of…I’ll ask if I can remember it laterAs soon as I finished, I i sea breeze blew ht up and to the side
Can you really drink in this kind of place!?
Maybe by the time I drink half of it, a fish will appear in the cup with the wind? I suddenly felt as if Ifish…
“Chu, happy new year”
Just when I was deludingto fly by, a certain voice that was so familiar it shouldn’t appear here at all ca my eyes hard
It seemed to be an illusion of senior Gasai, but it didn’t disappear and instead waved athis drink with an impatient look
“Ha, happy new year” I instinctively replied first, then instantly ran to the seat: “No wait, senior Gasai, how come you’re on this shi+p?” Could it be that you were here from the start but we just didn’t notice!?
It’s not like you’re Ryan! How could that possibly happen!?
“I received the e, so I came here to see the situationThe work this ti this, senior Gasai stirred his drink with a straw, and the white bubbles quickly blended into the brown liquid
Turns out robe levels don’t have the New Year off…it really is difficult
Looking at senior Gasai, I suddenly felt deeply touched
“He’s still on vacation” Sitting beside him, Senior opened his mouth all of a sudden and told me this: “He just came to have so to help?
Senior looked at me, and very cruelly nodded his head
“These days, our clan has been having festivals for the end of winterSo exhausting, it wasn’t easy forat ly relaxed tone: “To another Spirit Sendoff Ceremony in the afternoonIt’s quite troublesome”
Once he said that, I re master of the Yakushi+ji ClanWhichright now
“Oh right, Chu, I received the desserts you sentThey were delicious, thank you” That senior Gasai who secretly sneaked out said this, ht away
“You’re, you’re welcoood actually…” After all, they were just free desserts provided onboardI’ht’ve been a bit too impulsiveIt’d be bad if I caused the was also very happyShe seeift in return, and is currently still at the Yakushi+ji ClanI think you’ll probably be able to see that gift when school starts”
Senior Gasai said so that made me terrified
When you hear that a snake that only kno to eat and curse people wants to repay you because of a gift box, you’ll have the saht, that’s about enough chitchat” Putting down his cup, Senior interrupted the conversation when the two of us were , then turned to senior Gasai: “What’s your view on thishis lips back into a s time: “I still think it would be better to send the on the shi+p for long periods of tiood eitherSince their residence has been destroyed, continuing to get entangled in this will only cause both sides to suffer lossesEven if we ignore it today, they will eventually encounter a strong opponent, and by then, the other sidethe sa”
“Then what about Chu? What do you think?”
Suddenly turning around, senior Gasai directly askedme to almost spurt out the drink that just entered my mouth: “Meme?” It’s really rare for someone to actually ask foran auditory hallucination on the first day of the new year!?
“You’re so annoying!” Pulling out the straw in his drink, Senior sent one sentence crashi+ng over, then I saw hi the soft straw into the iron round table
The hell, that’s breaking public property!
Under the vicious glare, I could only brace lance at senior Gasai: “That…I think it’s better for the a bit strange too…”
I couldn’t really explain it, but I instinctively felt as if there’s so to Lizzie and the others, they were also acting strange
I have a bad feeling
“Yuli’s ti at the black ocean outside: “Although he hides it very well, e first ns of the phases of death in his face”
“Eh?” I looked at Senior, a bit unable to believe it
Didn’t he already becouardian God? Gods can die?
Black eyes looked over at uardian Gods,directly deified, demonified or turned into spirits, so they all have a fixed ainally a snake de tiuardian God doesn’t quickly head toward the place of rest in time, once his time is up, he will be co will be left of hiainst er has the power to preserve his own soul”
Nothing will be left of him?
I suddenly realized the severity of itThis means that if Yuli dies, there won’t even be a way for hiht, that’s pretty much what it means” Senior faintly said beside me
“It’s best if we can first persuade him to leave before this happens, or else if it continues on, I suppose it will cause a bad situation” Senior Gasai said a bit soood, whether it’s for him, or for his cootiate with thee and looked at the other two people: “When I was at their side just now…Yuli actually mentioned that he wants the others to enter the place of rest, but he doesn’t see there himself”
Senior and senior Gasai looked at lances with each other, as if they were silently transainIf it is as you say, ood to send the others off first” After five minutes or so, Senior finally opened his mouth and said
I nodded, a bit relieved?
If they all go to the place of rest, they should be able to live well in the future, and that place also has the Beast of Scroll, Seventh Master, the Shadow Wo with each other there, then it’d be great
“Oh right, recently I heard that there arearound in the waters here”
Switching the topic, senior Gasai told us this: “Near South Aence teahtseeing shi+p was attacked”
Attacked?
To be honest, for a second, endary sea monster…
“Do you believe I would disconnect you” Senior glared over
“Uh, you guys continue” Loves to overhear and loves to get angry…I’ aze back: “I have noticed thatLately the seas see that if I continue to listen to theo by boat anyy, many creatures that should have already fallen into a deep sleep woke upI suppose the robe levels here will probably be kept busy for a very long period of ti at the deep ocean outside, senior Gasai said so?
This is sort of si advocated
“Chu, you should have seen this kind of news tooIt’s generally about how a fishi+ng boat has discovered strange creatures again, or how a deep-sea fish was caught orking in shalloaters etc” Senior slowly saidThis did remind me of the many news like this recentlyThey were there in the past, but they seem to have become more frequent lately
This should be considered…norht?
“Because of pollution and environmental problems, more andtheir original residencesHowever, they can’t find new places either, and a s to simplify the explanation for me, senior Gasai swirled the cup in his hand: “So this situation ht become very common…”
I think I understand what they mean
“If we don’t try to settle the proble beneath the seaBy then, the turmoil it’ll cause in the ocean will lead to ers drew a circle on the table, senior Gasai sighed faintly: “Si around is uselessIt’d be good to have even oneat least, but oftenti at the black ocean, sure enough, protecting the environment is still very important
I remember I seemed to have seen a sentence like this beforeIt basically rantedIf you use it disrespectfully, beware of getting attacked back one day
“Turns out you also have some awareness” Senior coldly snorted and curved his lips into a strange arc that I wasn’t sure was a laugh or not
“They talk about this on TV and in the ht novels” At the very least, I can still see, alright, “Speaking of which, is there no way to restore an altered place back to normal with arrays?” Before, it seems like they’re always depicted so incredibly in the ic that is able to restore the beautiful world and whatnot
Cold eyes looked over, and I could almost see the words “are you an idiot” in Senior’s eyes
“Theoretically, it could work, but the original world’s atmosphere and pulsation have beenspell that you were talking about, it’s almost impossible based on the current state”
“Oh” So that’s the caseI think I understand what it means
“And even if we alter it, it will quickly be destroyed by overdevelop it and not altering it” Senior shrugged and said: “What inal world different fro it are unable to coexist with the nature elves, nor are they able to understand the other beings using the natural resources, so it will radual destruction of equilibriuets out of control that soret it”
In fact, what Senior and the others said made a lot of senseI think many people will probably notice it too
But those who don’t notice, or don’t want to notice, are still e this?
“In that case, it…”
Just when senior Gasai was about to say so without restraint
“I’ized, then quickly stood up and walked to the railing nearbyI never thought it could actually still have full signal at seaWhat a terrifying phone
After connecting the call, the other end of the phone was a bit noisy, as if there wereat h to call , happy new year!” Miao Miao’s voice came from the other side: “Are you happy?”
“Ah?”
For three seconds, my mind went blank
Then, the phone beca as if so the phone, before the voice was replaced by another person’s: “Chu Ming Yang…Come duel me…” The choppy words were added by a hiccup
“Liliya?” How did those two get together!?
“A duel!? You’re not allowed to fight here!” Miao Miao’s voice drifted over from the side
“Get over here…” Then Liliya yelled at the phone
“You two are drunk, aren’t you!?” Who gave alcohol to underage high school students!?
I suddenly felt as if I received a call froht to harass someone
“Hehe…happy new year” The phone fell into Miao Miao’s hands againIt was still a nonsensical reply
Several voices caain, then I heard Liliya’s and Miao Miao’s voicesfurther awayThe phone see? I’m sorry, Mikayla and Liliya were just forced to drink by Nuelle” Senior Geng’s apologetic voice ca you, happy new year”
“Uh, happy new year” You guys gathered together to celebrate New Year’s Eve?
I could probably i New Year’s Eve, then several girls, ether to celebrate, followed by that deh school students to drink…Why does that seeers over here would do!?
The phone once again emitted a bunch of sounds that made me take it away from ether?” The phone that they took turns snatching back and forth finally landed in the demon’s hands
“No thank you” It took ht, happy new yearSee you when school starts” Saying that, co the fact that there were still people clahtforwardly disconnected the call
I looked at the disconnected call with a head full of black linesJust what exactly were they trying to do…
Returning to my seat after the call ended, I found that Senior and senior Gasai were no longer in their seats, but there was a note left on the tableIt basically said that they’re going soate the waters, so I don’t need to wait and should go back to the room firstBeside it was also an already-paid bill for the drinks
They’re going down to investigate the waters in this kind of weather?
I looked at the dark dense ocean and suddenly felt that everyone ent down there had a lot of courage
Holding the note and planning to return to the roo abruptly leaped out of the seaI thought I was mistaken, but the whole wave rose up toward a very unnatural spot…
What is that?
