Due to Sheila's previous words and Zhang Lisheng's silence, the atmosphere at the dining table became very strange and dull.
In the silence, Tina habitually moved her plate to her boyfriend. Trish hesitated for a moment before putting her leftover fried meat and boiled eggs into the plate in front of Zhang Lisheng. Sheila, on the other hand, contributed half a steamed fish.
"I've already eaten barbecue, so I'm not that hungry anymore." Looking at the chowder in front of him, Zhang Lisheng muttered. However, he picked up the fork and forked three to four pieces of fried meat at a time before putting them into his mouth.
When he stayed on Shrimp B1 Island, he had always been less courteous and more straightforward than when he was in New York.
Upon seeing the young man's rude table manners, the few unfamiliar diners at the same table looked at each other. A young girl with a square face but a typical Western beauty sitting opposite him asked in a strange tone, "Mr. Zhang Lisheng, I heard from Tina and the others that you're the temporary host of Stanford University's biological laboratory on Shrimp B1 Island?"
"Yes."
"Then how long has it been since you've eaten your fill?"
"Oh, I can eat my fill, but there's only barbecue in the jungle. Not only that, it's a very strange barbecue, so I don't have much appetite." Zhang Lisheng shrugged.
"Then is it true that you've stayed in the jungle for more than a month?"
"Yes, actually, it's not difficult now that I have experience."
"We also have plans to explore the jungle, but those guides are only willing to take us to walk around the mountain forest that is no more than 20 kilometers around the gathering place. In that case, it won't even take two days. It's really hard to imagine that you can actually stay in the jungle for so long and still come back safely."
"My luck has always been good," Zhang Lisheng casually replied.
"Or perhaps you've been bragging all along?" The young woman suddenly laughed out loud. At once, the few friends who were familiar with her were stunned for a moment before bursting out in laughter. The one who laughed the loudest was, of course, Mr. Robin.
Zhang Lisheng, who was inexplicably contradicted, was also stunned. Frowning, he suddenly asked with a smile, "Sheila, do these few gentlemen and ladies who are dining with us have any other companions on the island?"
"Avril, you better shut up right now and apologize to Lisheng." Tina could hear the bone-chilling coldness in her boyfriend's tone. She first told the square-faced young woman angrily before holding Zhang Lisheng's hand. "Baby, she's still a child. She might be younger than you. She doesn't know what she's talking about at all …"
"Yeah, I'm only nineteen. I don't know what I'm talking about, let alone apologize." The young girl, who didn't realize how dangerous she was, winked and said. Her original intention was just to retaliate against Sheila for speaking rudely to her good friend just now.
Sensing that Tina's hand was trembling slightly, Zhang Lisheng's smiling face slowly turned expressionless. However, the gloominess in his tone disappeared without a trace. "Avril, do you know that there are only two women in this world who can stop my wrath? You're very lucky that one of them is pleading for you now.
How about this? I'll show you some 'little magic' and let you know why I can live in the jungle of Shrimp B1 Island for so long. After that, you can decide whether you want to apologize to me or not. "
As he was speaking, he commanded Ghostface to slowly climb up his finger from his pocket and onto the dining table with his mind.
The spider that was the size of a baby's fist with four heads on its back was already very terrifying. When the wizard gu appeared, it immediately stifled the laughter on the dining table.
Then, Avril and several of her friends watched in bewilderment as Ghostface crawled across the dining table and suddenly jumped onto the wall of the Hilton Hotel lobby. As though it was walking on flat ground, it slowly scurried to the dark place where the grape lights could not reach, revealing only an extremely vague outline.
"Do you see the aborigine on the street?" Avril, who was already scared speechless by the big spider, saw the pale young Asian man in front of her casually turning his head to look and pointing at an aborigine walking alone on the street in the distance. "Do you believe me, Miss Avril? I can make him disappear in just a blink of an eye."
Upon hearing this, the girl seemed to have a premonition of something. An extremely uneasy look crept upon her face. When she was about to say something, she suddenly realized that the aborigine pointed out by Zhang Lisheng had already disappeared without a trace.
In the human gathering place on Shrimp B1 Island, it was no longer strange for the aborigines to go shopping at night. Under the circumstance that no one paid special attention to him, it would be very difficult for a dwarf who was less than 120 centimeters tall and was acting alone to suddenly disappear in less than a second. It would be very difficult for anyone to notice it.
Other than a scantily dressed woman who happened to pass by the aborigine who was in a daze and rubbed her eyes as she looked around with a puzzled expression, it did not attract anyone's attention.
However, Avril, who had been specifically reminded by Zhang Lisheng, knew very well where the aborigine had gone. Looking at the head that was tightly wrapped in spider silk that was screaming silently with a distorted face that was slowly being swallowed in the shadows, she wanted to scream out loud but she felt that her mouth was so dry that she could not open it at all. Her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
Time seemed to have passed for a long time, but it also seemed like it had only been two to three minutes. The girl, who was thinking that she might be having a terrible nightmare, was suddenly awakened by a calm voice. "Are you going to apologize now, Miss Avril? Or do you also want to suddenly disappear while walking on the road?"
At that instant, Zhang Lisheng's demon-like performance completely shattered Avril's spirit. She slumped on the wooden table as her entire body trembled. Tears continued to flow out of her eyes silently as she said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry, sir! I'm so sorry! Please forgive me! Please! Please …"
"Alright, since you've already understood how lucky you and your 'little friends' are, you can leave now." As Zhang Lisheng was speaking, he commanded Ghostface, who had already swallowed the aborigine and shrunk its body, to pull the silk thread out of the air and slide it onto his collar before slowly entering the pocket of his shorts.
At this moment, none of the unfamiliar men and women at the same table dared to utter any nonsense anymore. Staggering, they ran out of the open-air restaurant. Even the hotel waiter who came up to greet them had lost his cool and pushed them away.
When Trish saw how they were rolling and crawling, she suddenly sighed with a grave expression. "Lisheng, it's just a small matter. Why do you have to make it so horrifying? It's said that there are surveillance cameras everywhere on the island. Aren't you afraid of making things worse?"
"The surveillance cameras on the street are actually very obvious so they can't escape from my eyes. Perhaps the Hilton Hotel has just been renovated so there's no surveillance at all."
"Let's not talk about it anymore, Trish. It's only a native that he killed. Back when we were on the Elizabeth Holiday, we've seen with our own eyes how Lisheng killed several thousands of them at once.
Let's talk about eternal youth instead. Recently, I've already started to faintly have wrinkles at the corner of my eyes. This is just too horrifying! Caucasians age really fast! God is so unfair … "
"I'm sorry, Sheila. If you already have wrinkles now, even eternal youth won't be able to save you …" As Zhang Lisheng was speaking, a few waiters walked over and cleaned the table before serving the few main dishes that he had ordered.
The young man shut his mouth and waited for the waiter to say, "Sir, please enjoy." After he left, he continued to eat and drink to his heart's content. "After the Gold Core's fragment is transplanted, the age that can be fixed should be two to three years more mature than you are now.
If you already have wrinkles now, it won't be very meaningful anymore. "
"How can it not be meaningful? The difference between one wrinkle and 100 wrinkles is very, very big.
If you're two to three years older than me now, you'll be around 25 years old. It's the golden age for a woman to have the most charm. Oh Lisheng, you're simply a living angel! "
"Thank you for your praise, Sheila. However, at present, there are only two human experimenters who have transplanted the Gold Core's fragment. Not only that, they're brother and sister who have a very high genetic match. Even though they've both succeeded, but …"
"Lisheng, are you referring to Professor Stephen and Professor Effiny?" Tina asked in surprise.
"That's right, Tina. It's that crazy supervisor of mine and his sister," The young man choked and became silent for a while before saying, "In fact, the most critical part of the Gold Core's fragment transplantation, the successful formulation of the stabilizer, is completely the result of the professor's single-handed efforts that he squeezed out his potential. It's a complete miracle that he could successfully research it.
The work that I've been doing is to optimize the stabilizer in Tudenan for more than two months, perfecting its improvement law and making it more in line with the genetic characteristics of the foreign world's creatures. So far, the effect is good but the success rate is only about 20% when I'm experimenting with the aborigines. "
"Oh, looks like I'll have to wait patiently for a few more years then. Remember to inform me when the success rate has reached 100%, dear Lisheng." Sheila, who was by the side, was stunned for a while before replying in disappointment.
"Sheila, we're talking about the 'transformation' of life. It's impossible to achieve a 100% success rate, but I'll definitely help you find a way to help you succeed in the future. Of course, all of this will take time," Zhang Lisheng said with a smile.
"Then I'll thank you in advance, baby. If there's a need, Tina and I can help you 'relax' tonight," Sheila said with a sweet smile.
"There's no need for that, Sheila. I can handle it myself." Upon hearing her best friend starting to tease her boyfriend with half-truths and half-lies again, Tina said with a smile that was both annoyed and amused.
At such a time, the smartest thing for a man to do was to remain silent, even if he was a wizard with great luck.
Zhang Lisheng pretended not to hear anything and swept the food on the table clean. After gulping down a large glass of cold Coke, he breathed a long sigh of relief. Without warning, he heard Tina, who had just finished bickering with Sheila, asking him, "Baby, we have less than ten days before the school reopens. Can you bring us to the jungle tomorrow?"
