Chapter 42
One percent, for most people, doesn't count for anything at all.
But for Lu Xiaobu, it's like finding a treasure.
"According to this, then wouldn't you have many abilities?"
"Yeah, just so-so, I know a little bit of everything."
"Brother Hao, why don't you be my foster father too?"
"Don't!"
Chen Hao didn't even think about it and refused directly.
"I treat you as a brother, but you want me to be your father, is that appropriate?"
"Appropriate, why wouldn't it be appropriate?"
Hearing this, Chen Hao rolled his eyes at Lu Xiaobu.
The two of them finally arrived in front of Lu Xiao's dormitory door.
"Ah~!"
"Ah~!"
"Ah~!"
The sound of "Ode to the Goose" came from Lu Xiao's room.
Hearing the sound, Chen Hao had black lines all over his head.
He had thought Lu Xiao would be very sad, but he didn't expect him to be so fond of learning, secretly hiding away to take a Sinology class.
Knock, knock, knock!
Chen Hao knocked on Lu Xiao's door.
"Who is it?"
"Me!"
"It's Brother Hao, wait a moment, I'm coming right away."
Lu Xiao ran out from inside.
He opened the door.
At this time, Lu Xiao was shirtless, holding a chicken foot in his hand, his mouth full of oil from eating.
"Xiao, let me introduce you."
"This is Lu Xiaobu, from now on he will be our team member."
"Brother Hao, you don't need to introduce him."
Chen Hao: ???
Chen Hao never expected that Lu Xiaobu would also worship Lu Xiao as a son.
"Foster father."
Lu Xiaobu bowed to Lu Xiao.
"Hey, very obedient!"
"Come, eat this!"
Lu Xiao handed the half-eaten chicken foot to Lu Xiaobu.
"Many thanks, foster father."
Lu Xiaobu didn't mind either, directly taking it and eating it.
"Xiaobu, you this..."
Hearing this, Lu Xiaobu showed a bitter smile.
While eating, he said: "Brother Hao, I'm different from you guys."
"I am an orphan, someone who has suffered."
"Back then I almost starved to death on the street, if it weren't for Sister Huofeng picking me back up."
"I would be gone by now, I reckon the grass on my grave would be as tall as a person."
"So this food, as long as it can be eaten, it's fine."
Lu Xiaobu's words made Chen Hao fall into silence.
No matter how bad he was, at least he had a grandfather to depend on.
Compared to him, Lu Xiaobu was much more miserable.
"It doesn't matter, it's good now, I have so many foster fathers."
"They all treat me quite well!"
"Yeah."
Looking at Lu Xiaobu with a full face of smiles, Chen Hao didn't know what to say, so he could only say "yeah".
"Don't worry, Xiaobu, from now on you follow us."
"If we have meat to eat, I guarantee you'll have a bowl of soup to drink."
Lu Xiao said while patting Lu Xiaobu on the shoulder.
"Then many thanks, foster father," Lu Xiaobu said.
"Let's go, to celebrate Xiaobu joining us."
"Today I'm treating, I'll treat everyone to a meal."
"Yay, there's food to eat, Brother Hao, wait for me a moment, I'm going to put on some clothes."
Lu Xiao went back into the room, quickly threw on a piece of clothing, and came out.
Chen Hao took the two of them and prepared to head to a restaurant outside.
"Brother Hao, I want to eat barbecue tonight, is that okay?"
Lu Xiaobu tried to ask Chen Hao.
"Sure!"
Chen Hao nodded.
"I know a barbecue shop, the grilled kidneys there are simply superb, should we go and try it?"
Lu Xiao suggested.
"Sure!"
Chen Hao took Lu Xiao and Lu Xiaobu to that barbecue shop.
The three of them ordered a large pile of barbecue.
Especially Lu Xiao.
This guy ordered a pile of grilled kidneys and grilled chives.
"Mmm, it's so fragrant!"
Lu Xiao ate one skewer after another.
"Come, Brother Hao, eat what you need to replenish."
"This is the grilled bull penis I ordered for you!"
Seeing this, Chen Hao handed the grilled bull penis to Lu Xiaobu.
"Xiaobu, come, you eat it."
"Okay, thank you!"
Lu Xiaobu was busy eating grilled beef skewers; he took the grilled bull penis from Chen Hao and began to gnaw on it.
"Brother Hao, do you not like eating it?"
Lu Xiao tried to ask.
Hearing this, Chen Hao smiled and said: "It's too nourishing, after eating it, I reckon I'll need to use my ancestral skills."
"Forget it."
"Oh oh oh!"
Lu Xiao had a look of sudden realization.
At the same time, he showed a "I understand" smile.
The three of them drank alcohol along with the barbecue.
After three rounds of drinks and five flavors of dishes.
After they were full and satisfied, they embarked on the road back.
"Brother Hao, I need to pee."
Lu Xiaobu had drunk too much beer, and now he had frequent urges to urinate.
"If you need to pee, go pee over there."
Lu Xiao pointed to a utility pole not far away.
"Okay."
Lu Xiaobu really walked over, unzipped his pants, and released water onto the utility pole.
Seeing this, Chen Hao felt speechless.
This guy was too bold, peeing in public, and it was even onto a utility pole.
Wasn't he afraid of being electrocuted?
Fortunately, it was late, and there were no pedestrians on the road.
After Lu Xiaobu finished peeing, his drunkenness receded quite a bit.
He walked toward Chen Hao.
Chen Hao discovered that Lu Xiaobu's eye sockets were a bit red.
"Xiaobu, what's wrong with you?"
"No...... nothing! It's just that I feel like my eyes want to pee!"
Lu Xiaobu's voice carried a crying tone.
"Are you not satisfied with tonight's barbecue?"
"No...... it's not that, I'm very satisfied, very satisfied."
"I'm just too moved."
"Brother Hao, do you know?"
"Today is the first time someone has treated me to barbecue."
"Growing up this big, this is the first time someone has treated me so well."
Lu Xiaobu's words made Chen Hao fall into silence.
Lu Xiaobu wiped away his tears, and a flash of determination appeared in his eyes.
"Brother Hao, don't worry, in this life, I'm following you for sure."
"From now on, this life of mine, Lu Xiaobu, is yours."
"Phooey, phooey, phooey!"
Seeing this, Chen Hao couldn't help but spit a few times.
"Don't say such unlucky things."
Chen Hao hadn't expected Lu Xiaobu, this guy, to suddenly set up a death FLAG.
"Yes, yes, yes, I farted, phooey, phooey, phooey!"
"Slap my face, slap my face!"
Lu Xiaobu slapped himself a few times lightly.
The three of them continued to walk forward.
Suddenly, Chen Hao stopped.
"Brother Hao, why did you stop?"
"Did you guys smell anything?"
"What smell? Is there one?" Lu Xiaobu asked.
"Brother Hao, your nose is too sharp."
"I just farted, and you smelled it."
Lu Xiao said with a smile.
Hearing this, Chen Hao had black lines all over his head.
"Who was talking to you about that."
"Didn't you guys smell a bloody scent?"
"Bloody scent?"
Hearing this, Lu Xiao and Lu Xiaobu tried to smell it.
After smelling it for a few moments, the two of them instantly became alert.
"There really is one!"
The three of them leaned toward the direction from which the bloody scent was drifting.
A crunching sound came from a small alley.
"Roar!"
A guy was "eating".
The appearance of Chen Hao and the others disturbed it.
"It's a Kobold."
The Kobold saw Chen Hao and the others.
It showed a ferocious look and flew toward Chen Hao and the others.
"Brother Hao, let me handle it!"
Lu Xiaobu rushed out, and he kicked out.
"Wind God Leg!"
Bang!
That leg, wreathed in wind, kicked onto the Kobold's body, sending the Kobold flying backward.
It hit the wall behind heavily.
Its head tilted to the side, and it died directly.
Seeing this, Lu Xiaobu couldn't help but clap his hands.
"Done!"
"Brother Hao, do you see how awesome I am?"
"So-so!"
Chen Hao leaned toward that corpse.
It was a woman, wearing a work uniform.
"She should have just finished working overtime and was on her way home when she was attacked by this guy."
Chen Hao looked at the Kobold.
He discovered that the Kobold had a scorpion tattoo on its chest.
"Scorpion Brigade?"
"This guy was eroded by an Ability Bead and turned into a beast."
Chen Hao condensed flames in his right hand and threw them toward the Kobold.
It directly burned the Kobold into ashes.
"Ding-dong!"
"Congratulations to the host, corpse collection successful!"
"Obtained E-level ability — [Kobold Possession]!"
"E-level ability?"
Chen Hao was somewhat surprised.
In his subconscious, didn't the Scorpion Brigade specifically plunder abilities of D-level and above?
Now there was actually an E-level ability.
E-level ability is too low-level.
After decomposing it, you can only obtain 10 original Ability Beads.
So Chen Hao was too lazy to decompose it.
He turned his head and glanced at the woman.
