The high-temperature blue flowers that seem to rise steeply around them baked and swept Lu Liran’s sweaty hairs.
…
Jiang Kun cast a sympathetic look at Ke Ji.
Although the nutrient solution is terrible to drink, it is not as bad as these weird foods.
He struggled a bit, thinking that such a delicate and beautiful Omega shouldn’t be subjected to such “torture” and “suffering”, and opened his mouth to speak to Ke Ji: “Actually, I also have a bag of nutrient solution here, so you don’t need to eat those things. Those rules and conditions shouldn’t apply to you, right?”
Ke Ji declined the offer.
Lu Liran snorted softly: “It seems that you have brought a lot of supplies.”
Jiang Kun nodded slightly with satisfaction: “That’s for sure, this mission was only expected to be here for two weeks, but I purposely prepared a month’s worth. I didn’t expect it to come in handy, so it’s true that it’s better to be prepared than not.”
Lu Liran raised his eyebrows, amused by Jiang Kun’s smugness. He glanced at Jiang Kun, curled up his lips, and asked with a sneer: “What are you going to eat after you finish eating these nutritional solutions?”
Jiang Kun’s expression froze slightly. He paused and said: “I have three bags left. If I save one, I can last at least four or five days.”
In four or five days, if he really cannot find the mission target, he will stop in time to stop the loss, abandon the mission, and return to the civilized world.
Lu Liran saw what Jiang Kun was thinking. He took a deep look at Jiang Kun and said: “This swamp may not cooperate with your arrangements. It’s not like the front door of a hotel. You can leave when you want and enter when you want.”
Jiang Kun’s heart sank. He didn’t know whether it was because he was frightened by Lu Liran, or because he thought of the situation he encountered a few days ago.
When they first entered the Ghost Swamp, everything went smoothly, and they even had a motorboat.
It wasn’t until the eighth day that the motorboat became entangled in a section of algae in the water, and then the engine burned out for some unknown reason and was completely scrapped, so they switched to hiking.
It was okay after hiking. They didn’t even encounter ferocious beasts like swamp crocodiles. They did encounter a few larger lizards, and more insects like spiders.
But these are minor troubles. They have brought enough equipment to prevent insects and beasts.
It wasn’t until later that they bypassed a swamp river as wide as a lake and arrived at the heart of the Ghost Forest Swamp that everything started to go wrong.
If he hadn’t encountered too many terrible things in recent days, Jiang Kun would have believed without hesitation that he could leave this ghost place anytime and anywhere.
After all, there is a signal here, and they have reached a consensus with the FangYe Group early on. Once they receive the signal from them, they will send a corresponding airship as soon as possible to take them away from here.
But now…Jiang Kun has seen more than the face of those two guys who are the supervisors of the Fang Ye Group during this period of time, and suddenly has some hesitation——If they did not find the Luohan Divine Grass as planned, would the FangYe Group still send an airship to meet them?
Jiang Kun couldn’t help but frown.
Seeing that the other party was obviously lost in thought, Lu Liran said nothing more. Such an obvious question would only need to be considered by those who are accustomed to relying on terminal storage and team support and care.
Lu Liran was sure that Jiang Kun was a lucky man and had never experienced betrayal or abandonment.

Lu Liran signaled to Ke Ji that he could eat: “Eat more. There’s no need to save anything. There’s plenty here.”
Lu Liran picked up a yellowish-white worm and had its head removed and its internal organs squeezed out: “Most parasites gather in their heads. This treatment can prevent most of the parasites from accidentally eating it. However, it is not cleaner than those ant eggs, so I’d better stick it in and roast it in front of the campfire for a while.”
He said to the drone, and the drone flew in front of him. They saw him stabbing the white worm through with a dagger, then placing it on the fire and slowly roasting it in a circle.
While roasting the worm, Lu Liran kept his mouth busy. He pinched a few ant eggs and threw them into his mouth, biting them slightly hard: “Well, the eggs of these carpenter ants are actually very elastic after being heated, a bit like rubber.”
“But the taste is not rough.” Lu Liran added, “It has a somewhat elastic texture and a natural and fresh taste.”
Maybe it was because the roasted worm looked less twisted and ferocious. Jiang Kun overcame the psychological barrier and sat on the other side of the bonfire. Hearing Lu Liran say this, he couldn’t help but be curious: “What does natural taste taste like?”
Ke Ji stuffed a piece of food into his mouth expressionlessly.
Jiang Kun could even hear a “crunching” sound. It was a bit strange, coming from Ke Ji’s mouth. It was probably because the ant eggs that had been kneaded into balls were chewier than single ones…he got goosebumps!
Ke Ji glanced at Jiang Kun: “The natural taste is probably the smell of rotten wood. I just don’t know if these ant eggs are covered with a layer of ant nest secretions. They are a little sticky and have a weird taste. In addition to the sour taste, they also taste a little like vomit.”
Jiang Kun’s face changed and turned slightly blue, feeling that the psychological barrier he had finally overcome was about to return to the battlefield.
When Lu Liran heard Ke Ji describe it like this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said: “You tasted it so carefully? Really think it’s some kind of feast?”
Ke Ji paused and asked Lu Liran: “You can ignore all of this?”
“Chew it a few times and swallow it. Unless there is too much juice, the taste will not stay in my mouth for more than three seconds.” Lu Liran said matter-of-factly.
You eat these things for the energy and nutrients in them, not for the taste.
He looked at Ke Ji and then said: “But your description is correct. The carpenter ant queen will indeed spit out a layer of thread-like excrement on the eggs she lays □□. It is used to supply nutrients to the eggs. It is also a supplement to the human body. The taste may be a little weird, since it is secreted from the mouthparts, but it is absolutely clean and edible.”
Ke Ji: “……”
Jiang Kun: “… ugh——!”
Jiang Kun ran aside and vomited again. Lu Liran twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly and rolled his eyes.
“This person only deserves to drink some nutrient solution.” Lu Liran said.
[Hmm…I guess Jiang Kun just wants to drink nutrient solution under such comparison]
[The description of Beauty just adds fuel to the fire, and Brother Lu’s additional explanation is dousing it with a barrel of gasoline ah!]
[Brother Lu can eat these things without expression even though he knows the ingredients, he is really a ruthless person—— ColdAntEggs gifted the anchor Sukiyaki Pot]
[It’s really a savage way to eat. So this is what the Federal Commander-in-Chief and Deputy Captain are like?
[Seeing this now, I can only boil it down to six words: rude, brutal and bloody, no wonder Desolate Star never welcomes them]
[Speechless, under limited living conditions, do you still expect people to eat like a five-star hotel? Why not eat minced meat?]
[Row, you really can’t say too many sarcastic words]
[Forget about being rude and savage, I think the two Alphas are deliberately showing off their affection to get CP business in order to please the Desolate Star audience, which is a bit disgusting and deliberate]
[Oh yo yo, where is this single guy so upset? They are just a couple, what’s your business, speechless]
[Housekeeper, get to work quickly! Kick them out!]
The live broadcast room was noisy again. Such quarrels and disputes had not stopped since the broadcast started. Jin Fei’s eyes were dazzled by it. The blocked comments and lists submitted are always released after being reviewed, because there is no foul language, bloody violence or anything like that.
All in all, useless.
Jin Fei was so angry, there was always that group of people who were keen to discredit!
The entire Desolate Ster is like this. The vast majority of people have no particular preference for sides, while a small number of people are keen to cause endless trouble for the Federation and incite hostility and rebellious sentiments, and there are still some people who are simple fans who love the house and its crow.
Lu Liran’s live broadcast room is famous throughout the entire Desolate Star, and he has many fans. Most of them are invisible, silently following the live broadcast room and not liking to jump around.
Such a group of people have subconsciously accepted the existence of the Federal Commander-in-Chief.
Lu Liran scanned the live broadcast room, but the barrages in the live broadcast room were updated too fast, and he didn’t notice the discordant comments.
He withdrew his attention and turned to look at Jiang Kun, who was still vomiting miserably at the side: “Have you not finished vomiting yet?”
Jiang Kun waved his hand instead of answering.
Ke Ji shrugged his shoulders, he smiled and said to Lu Liran: “Obviously, my ability to accept is unique.”
Lu Liran: “……”
Jiang Kun squatted on the edge of the bush to catch his breath. The smell in the bush was not good either, it was particularly upsetting, and it was very similar to the smell described by Ke Ji.
He wiped his mouth and was about to get up and walk away, but suddenly he saw the bush he was facing suddenly parting to the left and right, and a pointed head unexpectedly appeared in Jiang Kun’s sight. The difference is probably only a few dozen centimeters.
Jiang Kun was startled and stepped back suddenly. Unable to stand still, he fell to the ground with his buttocks crouched.
The big movement on his side immediately attracted the attention of Ke Ji and Lu Liran.
The two stood up quickly, and in unison they drew out their daggers and placed them across their chests.
Jiang Kun crawled back quickly, his eyes widening in horror. Just a quick glance was enough for him to recognize what it was!
“Damn it! How did it get here!?” Jiang Kun screamed.
Lu Liran followed Jiang Kun’s line of sight and saw a four-legged reptile that was more than ten meters long and looked like a lizard walking toward them step by step.
Different from ordinary lizards, the scale patterns on its body are like lifelike eyes, making people’s scalp numb and breathing tight.
[Holy shit, what the hell is this!]
[…Swamp Ghost Crocodile? But isn’t that thing very small?! This is a Big Mac!]
[Fuck, Jiang Kun recognizes it! It can’t be the one he met before, can it?]
[Good guy, did it find that Jiang Kun was wandering near its nest again, so it came to his door now?]
[If I find a stranger appearing near my house every three days…I want to kill that guy too]
[Hiss, this is a big trouble!]
Lu Liran’s pupils shrank slightly. When he heard Jiang Kun describe it before, he knew that this swamp ghost crocodile was unusual, but the shock of seeing it with his own eyes was completely different.
The moths attached to its back, forming patterns like eyes, began to flap their wings, as if the eyes were blinking. No one knew when they would fly up and scatter phosphorus powder that burned all over the sky.
Lu Liran clenched the dagger in his hand and frowned.
At this moment, the system prompt sounded in Lu Liran’s mind: “Congratulations to the host for discovering a new creature in the swamp, the ghost-eyed double-winged lizard. It is confirmed that the creature has the ability to survive environmental variants. The research contribution is +1!”
Lu Liran was a little confused, new creature? Is the Swamp Ghost Crocodile also a new creature? Or is this one in front of him not a swamp ghost crocodile?
Without giving him any time to think about it, the big guy in front of him, which was more than ten meters long, suddenly stood upright. The collar on its neck is wide open and two thin wings are spread behind it!
“Hiss-hiss-hiss!” It made a high-frequency sound from its mouth, as if it was threatening or commanding.
Lu Liran’s pupils shrank severely!
They saw countless moths behind it suddenly flying up, covering the sky and pressing towards them!
The phosphorus powder visible to the naked eye spread out, and ignited blue will-o’-the-wisps in twos and threes, back and forth, like flame flowers blooming out of thin air.
Those high-temperature blue flowers that seemed to rise suddenly around him rolled up Lu Liran’s hair. His whole body froze and his face turned extremely pale.
Sunnyshies: I finally manage to reach my calendar! I can go back to the usual schedule now!
