The meeting ended in a somewhat gloomy atmosphere.
Black Rabbit and Leticia both looked a little listless, and Ren was also worried. But this was a problem they needed to solve themselves, so Fangzheng stopped thinking about it and went straight back to his guesthouse.
However, just as Fangzheng was about to open the door, a scream suddenly came from inside.
"What the hell is this!!!"
Along with the scream, the heavy door was pushed open with a bang. Then, Fangzheng saw Bee-Eating Cao Qi rushing out from inside and bumping into him.
"Woah!"
Fangzheng did not react, but Bee-Eating Cao Qi who bumped into him was startled.
"What's wrong with you? Bee-Eating? It's not like you to scream so loudly … … "
However, before he finished speaking, Fangzheng's eyes were attracted by something else.
"What's this?"
That's right, Bee-Eating Cao Qi looked normal on the surface, but on her head were two things that looked like cow horns. If one looked carefully, one would also see a cow tail swinging behind her skirt ….
"Ah, wait, Bee-Eating!"
At this moment, Maplu and Sally also ran out in a hurry. When they saw Fangzheng, they stopped and stuck out their tongues.
"Ah, Mr. Fangzheng … …"
"… … Let's go back first."
Looking at Bee-Eating Cao Qi who was hugging her head and crying, Fangzheng sighed helplessly, then brought everyone back.
"So this is the first crime scene, right?"
Looking at the living room full of all kinds of snacks and small props, Fangzheng asked speechlessly. Hearing Fangzheng's question, Maplu puffed up her cheeks in protest.
"Mr. Fangzheng, you're too much, this is not a crime scene!"
"Ah … … It's actually not a big deal … …"
At this moment, Sally also hurriedly came out to explain.
"Actually, Maplu and I were sorting out the snacks and gadgets we bought at the Underwood Festival. Then, Ms. Bee Eater came, so we invited her to have a taste. We didn't expect this thing to grow on her head right after she finished eating …"
"Let me die!!"
At this moment, Beeater Cao Qi really looked like he wanted to die.
"If that muscular woman sees this, I'd rather die. I don't even need to guess to know what she'll say. It'll be nothing more than 'You've finally become a dairy cow', 'Your breasts are so big, they match the horns on your head'.... If she says something like that, I'd rather die!"
'No, no, no. I don't think Misaka Mikoto would say that. Maybe Kuroko would say that, but it's hard to say if it's related to the Bee-Eating Ritual.'
"But we clearly ate the same thing. Why didn't we have any reaction …?"
"Let me see."
Fangzheng took the package from Sally.
"Tauren's beef jerky?"
"Yeah, it was sold to us by a very energetic Tauren uncle."
What the hell is a Tauren selling beef jerky … Forget it, that's not the point anyway. "After eating it, there's a very low chance of receiving the blessing of the Divine Cow."
"You're pretty lucky."
"This is the worst, okay?!"
Although Beeater Cao Qi looked like she was about to die from embarrassment, Fangzheng noticed that after receiving the blessing of the Divine Cow, all of Beeater Cao Qi's personal stats had increased. Her other stats were originally at the lowest E Rank, except for her MP. Now, all of them had risen to D, and her endurance had risen to C.
"Congratulations, you can now run a marathon without getting out of breath or flushing."
"I don't want this kind of blessing!!!"
"Don't worry, there's a time limit. You'll be fine as long as you can endure it for three days."
"… Alright, three days is fine too."
Hearing Fangzheng's words of comfort, Beeater Cao Qi finally regained her composure. She could only accept it because it was obvious that she could not meet up with Misaka Mikoto within three days. Initially, Beeater Cao Qi thought that the damned thing was permanent, but she was relieved when she heard that it was only a temporary blessing.
"But it is indeed time for you to improve your own abilities."
Fangzheng shook his head and put down the jerky in his hand. He then looked at Beeater Cao Qi.
"Haoting is an incredible world, so it's normal for anything to appear. Your body is weaker than the average person. If you don't find a way to strengthen yourself, you'll be in deep trouble if something happens."
"I know, but it's really hard to find a blessing that suits me."
Beeater Cao Qi pouted and looked depressed. It was hard to tell that she was a particular person in this aspect.
"Besides, I don't plan to fight like that muscular lady. But good blessings are very expensive in the backline, and I can't afford the equivalent of the tournament fee. Normal blessings are one-on-one matches, and it's hard for me to win. "
Saying that, Beeater Cao Qi let out a long sigh. Her ability was indeed useful, but once she was restricted, she would be finished.
Hearing that, Mei Pulu suddenly clapped her hands as if she thought of something.
"Why don't we ask Miss Leticia to give Miss Beeater the blessing of the Ghost Tribe? As long as she becomes a vampire, there shouldn't be a problem."
"Eh? Wait, if I become a vampire, I can eat sweets as much as I want? "
"She can't bask in the sun anymore."
Fangzheng quickly gave her a silent reminder when he saw that Beehive Cao Qi was truly moved. Beehive Cao Qi immediately frowned.
"But can't Miss Leticia live under the sun?"
"That's because the Haoting Veil is specially designed for vampires. If you invite her to our world, she'll definitely not step out of the door."
"Ugh …"
Hearing that, Beeater Cao Qi hesitated. Although she did not exercise much, she had never thought of becoming a vampire who lived at home for ten thousand years.
Writing a suicide note just like Sophie's when she went to a comic con was really a tragedy.
However, it was true that Cao Qi was quite against Misaka Mikoto. She did not want others to think of her as a violent woman who relied on her body to survive. However, she couldn't find anything she could do in the rear. After all, Bee-Eater Cao Qi had always thought of herself as a smart person. Violent things like fighting and killing.... were not things she was willing to do.
"All in all, you should get some self-protection blessings first. Be it equipment or magic, it's better than looking like this. To be honest, you look like you're walking naked on the street. Anything can kill you."
"Ugh …"
Hearing that, Beeater Cao Qi glared at Fangzheng unhappily.
"Mr. Fangzheng, your words are too hurtful. I'm still a girl."
"If you don't work harder, it won't be a metaphor anymore. It'll be a fact. Now that you have this buff, go and find a few interesting games to play. "
"Alright … I'll try."
Although Bee-eating Cao Qi showed a very unhappy expression, she still nodded and gloomily left the living room. Meanwhile, Fangzheng returned to his room and began to think about the next step of the battle plan. Just like that, he was called to the dining room by Xiao Meiyan for dinner in the evening.
"Beeater isn't back yet?"
Looking at the empty seat, Fangzheng asked curiously. Maplu nodded.
"Yeah, but she should be fine."
"She better be … Alright, let's eat."
Fangzheng did not feel that Beeater Cao Qi was in any danger, so he temporarily put aside the trivial matter and sat at the table to eat.
"Boom!!"
Just as they were halfway through their meal, the door suddenly opened. Beeater Cao Qi walked in while panting, carrying a sack that was about the same size as her.
"I, I'm back … …!"
"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Beeater. What's that?"
Hearing Black-Snow Girl's question, Beeater Cao Qi's expression became a little gloomy, then she helplessly lowered her head.
"My prize for participating in the blessings competition."
"Huh? Miss Beeater, did you win? "
The others stopped eating and gathered around, curiously looking at the sack. Beeater Cao Qi was even more gloomy.
"More or less, but this thing … … Sigh, I don't know what to say."
While saying that, Beeater Cao Qi opened the sack. The others curiously peeked inside, then suddenly screamed.
"What's this?"
"A robot?"
"A girl??"
"Huh? What the hell? "
Looking at the astonished faces of the girls, Fangzheng put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, then walked forward and peeked into the sack.
Inside the sack was a girl who looked like she was in her teens, but she was not human. On the contrary, from the gaps in the girl's body and the mechanical parts exposed from the damaged parts, it was obvious that she was a robot.
But … …
"It's so tragic."
"This … … Don't tell me the child is broken."
It was no wonder that the girls would have such thoughts, because the robot girl's limbs were almost blown to pieces, and even her body was full of holes. The mechanical wings on her back were even more damaged. It looked like a body that had been bombarded by artillery.
"Ah, she's still wearing a ring on her left hand."
Masaru Haruhi noticed another point, which immediately caused another round of discussion among the girls.
"Huh? Can robots get married too? "
"But why is this a prize?"
"Because the organizers said that this is an artifact they accidentally discovered and drifted here from the outside world … … I didn't expect it to be so badly damaged … … I thought robots could be used as bodyguards … …"
Speaking of this, Beeater Cao Qi was also dejected.
She had originally signed up for the blessings competition because she heard that the prize was a "strange robot". After all, to Beeater Cao Qi, the people of Box Court might not know what it was, but she could guess that it was most likely a robot.
Originally, Beeater Cao Qi thought it would be a complete one, but in the end … …
"Mr. Fangzheng, can I trouble you to repair it?"
"It's so badly damaged … …"
Fangzheng carefully looked at the robot girl in the sack and nodded.
"Okay, I'll try."
Then, he said.
