Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 143 - 137: Lu Lin, Brother, Is This Your Egg?

Chapter 143: Chapter 137: Lu Lin, Brother, Is This Your Egg?

"Xiao Ru, try using a Star Skill."

"Alright, brother Lu Lin."

Xiao Ru answered, raising her right hand to draw a circle in the air.

Just as Lu Lin was secretly thinking Xiao Ru was just messing around.

Suddenly, a Black Hole appeared in the air.

Outside the Black Hole, silver-star-lit Star Power Factors floated, uncertain if the Black Hole carried them or if they showed up because of it.

From inside the Black Hole, a faint suction force emerged; Lu Lin saw Zhou Ziqiang’s F Level Alloy Warsword on the coffee table twitching, as if it were about to be sucked into the Black Hole.

"Xiao Ru, could you try pulling Xiao Bai, Da Bai, and Mr. Bai out from the Black Hole again?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ru pouted, her eyes opened wide, looking plaintively at Zhou Ziqiang beside her: "Brother won’t let me reach in to find stuff anymore."

As she spoke, tears faintly appeared in her eye sockets.

Zhou Ziqiang awkwardly smiled, "Xiao Ru, it’s okay, Brother Lu Lin wants you to try, so go ahead."

Only then did Xiao Ru nod, extending her fair little arm into the Black Hole.

"Brother Lu Lin, it’s really cool inside, would you like to try it?"

"Eh, what’s this?"

"Don’t move, don’t move, don’t move."

"Brother Lu Lin, help me out here, this little fellow’s pretty strong this time."

Xiao Ru said, signaling Lu Lin to help pull the thing out from the Black Hole. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Lu Lin reached in to lend a hand with the effort.

Mind you, this time it really might be a big one.

Although Lu Lin dared not use too much force, he exerted over 200 pounds of strength, yet still felt the thing inside thrashing wildly.

No choice, Lu Lin had to slightly increase the force.

Whoa!

From the Black Hole, Lu Lin pulled out a large white goose.

White feathers, white feet, white crown.

It stood about waist-high to Lu Lin.

Plump and chubby, as soon as it landed, it pecked at Lu Lin.

"Little white goose, don’t attack Brother Lu Lin, or I’ll throw you back into the Black Hole."

The goose seemed to understand Xiao Ru’s words, perhaps fearful of being discarded, it retracted its long neck and slowly walked to Xiao Ru’s side, affectionately rubbing its long neck against Xiao Ru’s thigh.

Lu Lin had activated Stone Skin, but the obedient departure of the big white goose was a relief; this little guy was not big, but its temperament was fierce.

However, now was no time to worry about the big white goose, as the Black Hole remained, Lu Lin mimicked Xiao Ru and put his arm inside.

Slippery.

Cold.

Lu Lin felt as though his arm was in lake water, sliding freely within.

He even wanted to peek inside.

Ultimately, he abandoned the thought, since getting stuck would be troublesome.

After imitating Xiao Ru’s motions for a while, Lu Lin got nothing.

Helplessly, he withdrew his arm.

By then, the Black Hole had shrunk to accommodate only his arm in and out; Xiao Ru’s face was tear-stained.

"What’s wrong Xiao Ru?"

"Brother Lu Lin, I’m hungry, no wait, not me, my Star Core is hungry."

Lu Lin realized.

This was why Xiao Ru’s Star Power got overly consumed, prompting hunger.

Usually, adult Star Core Warriors could endure this feeling, but not children.

Kids’ tolerance for hunger isn’t as strong as adults’.

Lu Lin quickly fetched a Star Power Recovery Potion for Xiao Ru to drink.

Nearby, Zhou Ziqiang’s eyes widened: "Brother Lu, is that Star Power Recovery Potion?"

"Mm-hmm."

"The one retailing at 150,000 Yuan a bottle Star Power Recovery Potion?"

"Capable of instantly restoring full Star Power to Third Level Star-Core Fighters?"

Lu Lin nodded, glancing at Zhou Ziqiang speechlessly.

Is it that surprising, just a Star Power Potion, why make such a fuss?

Zhou Ziqiang silently sat on the sofa, pondering why Lu Lin seemed so different after just days apart.

Living in such a spacious, luxurious house.

Casually gifting away an F Level Alloy Warsword worth over 200,000 Yuan.

Giving a Star Power Recovery Potion costing 150,000 Yuan to a child not even at the First level.

What on earth did Lu Lin experience during his return to Saturn?

"Burp~"

Xiao Ru, having downed the Star Power Recovery Potion, burped, then realizing the impropriety in front of Lu Lin, covered her mouth, sheepishly smiling at him.

"It’s okay, how does the potion taste?"

Lu Lin had specially picked this orange-flavored bottle, tasting like a citrus drink, far superior to the free nutritional meal provided by Tongyuan Education Bureau, which paled terribly in flavor.

Clearly it could be made delicious, why resort to producing such unpalatable energy paste?

"Delicious, but I can’t drink anymore."

"Burp."

Xiao Ru said, letting out another burp.

"Huh, Brother Lu Lin, what’s this?"

"Is it your egg?"

Lu Lin quickly moved away, dodging Xiao Ru’s hand reaching for his pants pocket.

"Uh, Xiao Ru, this is an exotic beast egg someone gave me, not my egg."

Lu Lin took the egg out of his pocket to show Xiao Ru.

"Wow, this egg is so interesting."

"Brother Lu Lin, it seems to be smiling at me."

"Wait, what did you say?"

"You want to go into the Black Hole, sure, but don’t run around inside."

Xiao Ru exchanged a few words with the egg, then suddenly looked up at Lu Lin and said:

"Brother Lu Lin, the little egg says it wants to stay inside the Black Hole. It says it can help it grow."

Lu Lin was stunned for a moment.

Xiao Ru can talk with this egg?

And she knows that the egg needs to enter a Black Hole to grow?

If he didn’t know Xiao Ru wasn’t lying, Lu Lin would suspect she was trying to trick him into giving her the egg.

"Alright, you can put it in."

"Haha, I knew it, Brother Lu Lin is the best."

Now, with Star Power coursing through Xiao Ru, she drew a circle in the air again, and a Black Hole appeared.

Curiously peeping inside, Xiao Ru seemed to select a suitable spot and placed the egg inside, snapping her fingers without a sound, and the Black Hole gently floated into the air and vanished.

Lu Lin wondered where Xiao Ru learned these moves, perhaps from Zhou Ziqiang?

"Alright, it’s about time, let’s go out to eat."

"Go out to eat? Brother Lu Lin, eating at home is so much better."

"Brother said eating at home is cheap, saves money, and is nutritious. Outside food from KFC and McDonald’s is junk food, eating it will make you not grow tall, and if you don’t grow tall, you can’t become a great beauty. If you don’t become a great beauty, you can’t marry Brother Lu Lin."

"Even if you marry Brother Lu Lin, you’ll be sent to the cold palace because of your looks, and spend your days with Buddhist lanterns, living a dull life..."

What, what kind of nonsense is this?

Lu Lin looked deeply at Zhou Ziqiang.

What does he teach his sister instead of cherishing her every day?

Zhou Ziqiang waved his hands repeatedly, "I’m not, I didn’t, Mr. Lu, she learned this from watching TV by herself. It’s got nothing to do with me."

"Nothing to do with you?"

"If you spent more time with Xiao Ru, would she have learned all this nonsense?"

Lu Lin commented, pulling Xiao Ru’s hand, saying, "Xiao Ru, it’s okay, eating out once in a while won’t hurt."

"There’s a barbecue restaurant outside the Residential Area, they serve parts of exotic beasts. I’ve heard it’s really tasty. Do you want to try it?"

"Sure, I want to go."

Xiao Ru shouted excitedly.

Jinchao Barbecue has seven branches in Chongnuo City.

Jinchao Barbecue is backed by the Jinchao Reclamation Team, which brings back many exotic beast corpses each time they return from the Exotic Battlefield. After processing, these beasts are served at Jinchao Barbecue, available for Chongnuo City’s residents to enjoy.

Many active reclamation teams exist in the city, but few focus on hunting exotic beasts like Jinchao Barbecue, making it a famous restaurant in the city.

After waiting in line for about half an hour, Lu Lin and the others finally got into the restaurant.

"Jin Ding Kui Niu, 788 Yuan per 500 grams."

"Gold Thread Xuan Snake, 1,200 Yuan per 500 grams."

"Qi Zhi Wind Thunder Deer, 8,500 Yuan per 500 grams."

"Jumping Black Spotted Bullfrog, 350 Yuan each."

"Green-haired Cangshan Pig, 750 Yuan per 500 grams."

...

Zhou Ziqiang glanced at the menu prices and was secretly surprised. This isn’t just eating exotic beast meat; this is more precious than his own flesh.

Lu Lin didn’t mind at all, continuously calling out dish names, making Zhou Ziqiang’s heart tremble.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, that’s enough."

Zhou Ziqiang felt a pang of jealousy, just with the dishes Lu Lin ordered, it was nearly 10,000 Yuan.

Especially since Lu Lin ordered a special drink, Black-spotted Chrysanthemum Chrysanthemum Fruit Juice, just for Xiao Ru.

This glass alone cost a whopping 1,020 Yuan.

"It’s okay, I rarely take Xiao Ru out for a feast. If I don’t order some nice things, how will I get her to come out with me next time?"

Lu Lin smiled.

Though he didn’t continue to order more of the expensive exotic beast meat, he also ordered some regular beef, mutton, and chicken dishes.

This meal made Xiao Ru really happy.

Eating with one hand while drinking Black-spotted Chrysanthemum Juice with the other, she even had two more cups of other juices in between.

With her tummy full and round, Xiao Ru exclaimed, "Brother Lu Lin, I can’t walk, my stomach’s bloated."

The three of them slowly strolled back home, and just then, Lu Lin’s communicator rang.

It was Director Long.
