The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 1151 Material

Early morning, Millennium Building -6F, Rabbit Gate.

The living room was messy and dimly lit. Zhang Wei and Gregor were sitting on the sofa with disheveled hair, each holding a NES game controller and playing an old FC game called "Hot Blood High School".

"Quick, quick, quick!" Zhang Wei shouted: "Don't worry about these gangsters, just rush over!"

"I can't run. Oops, he kicked me and I fell to the ground. Quick, save me..." Gregor was in a hurry.

"Wait for me, I'll pick up a chain! Beat her to death!"

"boom!"

Dr. Jia opened the door with force and rushed in with a panic on his face: "Yingwu! Have you seen my bravery?"

Zhang Wei and Gregor were stunned, pressed the pause button on the game, looked at each other, and then silently looked at the coffee table in front of them.

There were seven or eight empty beer bottles on it, an ashtray filled with cigarette butts, and some fast food boxes. There were some small bones and a vaguely visible bird head left in one of the boxes.

Gregor smiled sheepishly: "Your Yingwu... still has a head. Neither of us likes to eat. How about heating it up for you?"

Zhang Wei still had a toothpick in his mouth: "Don't tell me, this is my first time eating parrot meat. It tastes really good."

Dr. Jia stayed where he was for several seconds.

"I [silence] [silence] [silence]! I will fight with you!!" Dr. Jia rushed over angrily, took a mug from the table and hit Gregor on the head.

Zhang Wei only looked at him, and Dr. Jia's whole body was numb, and he stumbled forward.

Zhang Wei hurriedly supported Dr. Jia and took away the mug from his hand.

Gregor stretched out his hand and pulled Dr. Jia to sit on the sofa. He patted Dr. Jia on the shoulder: "This is obviously a joke to you. You take it seriously."

"A joke?" Dr. Jia's eyes were red and he was still very excited. "Is it really just a joke?"

"Who would eat parrot meat? I heard it's super unpalatable." Zhang Wei smiled cowardly.

"Then... what is this?" Dr. Jia said, pointing to the bird head in the lunch box.

"Roast squab." Zhang Wei said.

"At this point, where are you going to order the roasted pigeon?" Dr. Jia was very worried.

"Nigerian delicacies." Zhang Wei was very proud: "Brother Yang just came back from the desert. He guessed that we were not asleep yet and brought us some midnight snacks. He really made me cry to death."

"Don't be moved. It's obviously the leftovers he ate and it's just a favor." Gregor disagreed.

"Isn't it true that favors that go along with the flow are not love?" Zhang Wei said confidently: "Brother Yang is busy with everything, but he is still thinking about us in his heart. Where can you find such a big brother? Don't be ignorant of your blessings."

"Great, Yingwu is fine..." Dr. Jia breathed a sigh of relief, and then he thought of something: "Oh no! Where is my bird! Why can't I find him anywhere!"

"I went out with Jiuhan early in the morning." Gregor happened to know.

"What are you going to do?" Dr. Jia asked.

"I don't know. You should be following him on his mission. If you are busy studying every day and don't play with it, it will find someone to play with on its own."

"Perform the mission! Isn't that dangerous!" Dr. Jia panicked again.

"Don't worry, it's not a dangerous mission. Besides, if you really want to fight Jiuhan, you won't be short of your useless parrot."

"Yes, yes." Dr. Jia finally felt relieved.

"Well... I'm a little sleepy. Let's take a shower and go to bed." Zhang Wei yawned, got up and left.

Gregor was not sleepy yet. He stretched out his legs and clamped a bottle of beer on the coffee table with his feet. He then retracted his legs, took the beer, opened it, took a sip, and glanced at Dr. Jia next to him, who was still sitting on the sofa. superior.

"Old Jia, your face turned pale just now." Gregor said.

"Really?" Dr. Jia touched his face, feeling a little distracted, still thinking about the parrot that was away from home.

"Actually..." Gregor turned sideways, crossed his legs, picked his feet with one hand, and shook the beer bottle with the other: "Actually, there is a character in my novel who loves pets very much."

"What do you want to say?" Dr. Jia frowned.

"Haha," Gregor laughed mischievously, "I know that some people have deeper feelings for pets than for humans, so I want to have a deeper understanding of their inner world in order to create more realistic characters. It’s more complicated.” “Okay, okay, use me as material, right?” Dr. Jia was a little unhappy.

"Don't you use our blood and energy as experimental materials every day? You are awesome in scientific research, but I am stupid in literary creation, right?" Gregor argued.

"That's not what I mean." Dr. Jia thought for a moment and decided to be honest: "Actually, that's what I mean. I think all of you who engage in literature are idiots."

"Just asking you, do you still want my energy in the future?" Gregor said.

"Yes." Dr. Jia said.

"Then say it quickly!"

"Okay." Dr. Jia agreed, "But you can't tell others."

"rest assured."

"It's not allowed to be written into novels either!" Dr. Jia added.

Gregor was stunned and hurriedly swore: "I promise not to write it!"

——What does a novel written by a computer have to do with me, Gregor?

Dr. Jia hesitated, then took a bottle of beer from the coffee table, opened it and took a sip. He licked his lips and asked, "Do you know about [animals'] talents?"

"I don't know." Gregor was not very interested in talents. Although he had looked at his watch, he had forgotten most of it.

"[Animal], serial number 105, life system. The ability is to transform into various animals." Dr. Jia explained.

"You just said Druid." Gregor understood immediately, and he was suddenly startled, "Don't tell me that your parrot is actually a human being?"

"I don't know either." Dr. Jia smiled bitterly.

"You don't know either?" The surprise on Gregor's face turned into surprise. He had a premonition that this story would be interesting: "Come, let's talk."

Dr. Jia sighed, raised his head, took a sip of wine, and talked about the past many years ago.

At that time, Dr. Jia had just turned twenty, but because of his anxious appearance and aura of [genius], people in the awakening world thought he was in his forties.

That spring, Dr. Jia met an eighteen-year-old awakened person named Mung Bean, who was gifted with [animal] by chance.

This man was not actually called Mung Bean, but Dr. Jia was too lazy to remember his name. He had a pair of mung bean eyes, so Dr. Jia called him that, and the other party happily accepted it.

Mung Bean has a cheerful personality and a simple mind. He admires Dr. Jia very much and wants to "learn from him".

Mung Bean became Dr. Jia's assistant and also Dr. Jia's nanny, taking care of his daily life, diet, and living arrangements. As an assistant, he was ineffective, but as a nanny, he was meticulous and considerate.

"Mung Bean, he's good at everything, but he's stupid." Dr. Jia sighed.

"How can I be stupid when I can take care of you so well?" Gregor realized the truth: "You are too smart. Ordinary people are stupid in your eyes."

"Okay." Dr. Jia admitted generously: "That's it."

As Dr. Jia's assistant, Mung Bean has been very serious and hardworking, but still cannot satisfy Dr. Jia.

In Dr. Jia's opinion, Mung Bean needs to ask seven or eight sentences repeatedly to understand something that can be clearly explained in one sentence.

Doing an experiment is also clumsy, and many times Dr. Jia feels that it would be easier to do it alone.

In short, Dr. Jia was often annoyed by Mung Bean. Sometimes he was so angry that he could not eat, and he stopped communicating with Mung Bean.

At this time, the mung bean will turn into an animal.

Dr. Jia hated animals, so Mung Bean deliberately turned into various animals to annoy Dr. Jia until Dr. Jia couldn't help but cursed. This scolding vented his emotions and dissipated his anger, and the relationship between the two returned to its previous state.

Dr. Jia continued to yell at him, complaining about this and that, while Mung Bean kept going, working hard and uncomplainingly, and then waited for the next time Mung Bean got into trouble, Dr. Jia would explode and get angry again, and Mung Bean would try to coax Dr. Jia into good health.

"What a good friend." Gregor commented.
