Chapter 331: Sea Urchin Yellow
The sea monster flew up into the sky, the blue tide covered the entire sky, attempting to wrap the whole planet.
Now it's fine; not to mention red sunlight, even the light source is about to become a luxury.
But the anticipated darkness did not arrive; the blue tide above space itself emits a faint fluorescence, completely different from the disgusting, viscous blood tide of the blood disaster, and accompanying the sea monster that flew into space, there is actually a feeling of being in the deep sea.
"Wow! Knight Sir! That manta ray looks so cute!"
Since the bloody sunlight was blocked, the sky's blue tide has become much more pleasing to the eye.
Moreover, that strange perspective, along with the sea monster's still 'cute' appearance, successfully aroused the little cat's affection.
Nowadays, people see a view like that of an aquarium every day when they look up, and it truly has restored some sanity to this sanity‑losing world.
"Estimated time of final disaster arrival: 135 days"
Jierte gazed at the countdown on the terminal, his eyes somewhat complex.
"Time is getting less and less."
Meanwhile, countless sturdy disaster warriors continually attempt to destroy the blue giant tree, but with little effect.
With current human technology, destroying it is not particularly difficult, but the problem is that its quantity is simply too great; if we cannot find a low‑cost way to destroy them, we can only let the sea monsters develop.
However, these have nothing to do with Jierte; he no longer cares how humanity develops, and even as the day of the final disaster draws nearer, he feels no sense of urgency at all.
The reason might be a feeling of relief before everything ends.
It's like an exam: those who can't write become increasingly anxious and irritated, while those who can just feel relieved.
At this moment, Jierte's power within his body has reached its peak, even faintly feeling uncontrollable.
This is the first time he has felt a 'bottleneck', a faint sensation of soon touching a certain level.
"Could it be the realm capable of destroying a planet?"
Jierte pondered for a moment, and a grilled, fragrant sardine was already brought to his lips.
The little catgirl stood on tiptoe, holding up a skewer and sending it toward his mouth.
"Knight Sir, eat the skewer!"
"Hmm."
Although the sea monsters have now flown into the sky, appearing rather sanity‑losing, they are still edible just like the beast disaster.
I don't know which genius discovered this; Jierte thinks the person who came up with the idea is either a great genius or a complete idiot.
Unless one is starving to the point of desperation, Jierte doesn't think anyone would be foolish enough to try to gorge on disaster food.
That said, the tender flesh of these disasters is indeed top‑grade food, and Lan Baoshi hasn't had her favorite seafood in a long time, so she is eagerly devouring it on the side.
Nowadays, the order of human society has entered a half‑collapsed state; the previously ubiquitous restaurants and stalls have completely disappeared.
Finding a place to eat has become extremely difficult; to satisfy her palate, Lan Baoshi deliberately learned how to cook.
However, her talent is really hard to describe; although the taste is not bad, the presentation is really....
Lan Baoshi may be small, but her appetite is huge, so each time she cooks she ends up with a full basin; however, because of that indescribable presentation, each time Lan Baoshi's cooking looks like a big basin of slop, causing the big cat to lose quite a bit of weight lately.
Fortunately, since the news spread that sea monsters are edible, Lan Baoshi has started cooking sea monsters to eat; even if her cooking presentation is still bad, the presentation of boiled sea monsters is not much better.
"Actually, Sir, the yellow yellow inside this sea urchin is really delicious!"
"Knight Sir, why did seafood evolve to be so delicious, and even evolve the yellow yellow just for me to eat?"
"Pfft....."
The big cat burst out laughing, while Lan Baoshi still looked at the big cat with a pure‑innocent face.
Jierte gave the big cat a speechless glance; this guy is full of yellow fluid and isn't afraid of leading Lan Baoshi astray.
"This yellow yellow isn't just for you to eat, little kitty."
"That, however, is the sea urchin's gonad."
Lan Baoshi:?
As a cat who hasn't gone to school, she doesn't understand what this term means.
So she directed her pleading gaze toward Jierte.
"Knight Sir, what does gonad mean?"
"Pfft....."
Jierte's mouthful of water he had just taken sprayed out directly; he looked speechlessly at the big cat trying not to laugh, and said helplessly.
"It's the organ they use for reproduction."
"Ah? What organ is that?"
"......"
Jierte wanted to say something but held back, finally letting out a sigh.
"Forget it, big cat, you tell her."
"Hehe....."
The big cat, wearing an evil grin, approached Lan Baoshi and curled a finger at her.
"Meow?"
Lan Baoshi, curious, came closer, and the big cat went up to her cat ears and made a series of chirping sounds.
"The gonad is *****"
"Ah? It's actually that kind of thing?"
"Yes, it's your Knight Sir's ******"
"!!!"
"Ah! That thing is also like that!!!"
Lan Baoshi was shocked, the smart hairs on her head standing up, staring at Jierte in disbelief.
Jierte:?
Da Mao! You idiot, what weird stuff have you stuffed into Xiao Mao!
Lan Baoshi's eyes widened, and then, not knowing what she had thought of, her little face suddenly turned red.
"Pah pah pah, I'm not eating!"
Lan Baoshi ultimately couldn't shake off the shadow of that thing, gave up the sea urchin she liked, and turned her attention to the grilled fish on the side.
Jierte stared at Da Mao with a grim face, while the other party gave a hehe laugh, completely unbothered, and even teased Jierte with justification.
"Oh well, she'll find out about these sooner or later."
"Everyone grows up someday, you can't always be thinking of protecting her, right?"
"You always have....."
"Alright, Da Mao, I know what you mean, no need to continue."
"Meow?"
Lan Baoshi was chewing on a strange blue squid, looking at the two with curiosity.
"Tch.... fine, fine."
Da Mao expressed helplessness at Jierte's overprotectiveness of Lan Baoshi; in this absurd world, a person cannot possibly stay childish forever.
Jierte also knew that what Da Mao meant was simply that he couldn't go on with her, and perhaps one day he would forever leave Xiao Mao.
"But...."
Before all this, Jierte only wished for his Xiao Mao's happiness and well-being, and blessed her that she would never have a day of being forced to grow up.
