Douluo Continent: Contract Goddess, Transforming the Mecha Girl World!

Chapter 48 The Kitten in the Trap, Wavering and Struggling

Do you crave power? No, I crave breasts!

(P.S.: A reference to a comic book)

"I want to become stronger, strong enough to decide my own life!"

Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fists; despite her young age, her eyes and tone were filled with suppressed emotions…

"Very good, I admire your enthusiasm!"

Chen Shi nodded in satisfaction, then continued, "Do you know why, even though we're all twelve years old, Xiao Wu and I have significantly higher soul power levels?"

Zhu Zhuqing turned her head and blurted out without thinking, "Because you are born with full soul power, your talent is much better than people like me."

The kitten's innate soul power is only level 7, which is indeed quite far behind at the start.

"No, no, no! Talent is only one aspect; the main reason is the Spirit Mech!"

Chen Shi shook his head, and one sentence immediately piqued the girl's interest.

"Martial Soul Mech? Could it be the equipment that suddenly appeared on your bodies during the battle?"

"That's right, it not only greatly enhances my combat abilities, but it can also assist Soul Masters in cultivation, truly achieving twice the result with half the effort!"

The kitten had witnessed the power of the Martial Soul Mech in actual combat, and after hearing Chen Shi say this, it felt even more like it was a treasure that every Soul Master dreamed of!

As soon as the words were spoken, even with Zhu Zhuqing's aloof nature, she couldn't help but feel a secret envy in her heart.

Seeing that he had completely captured the girl's attention, Chen Shi pressed his advantage: "Looking across the entire continent, there is only one person capable of creating Martial Soul Mechs, and he is standing right in front of you!"

Zhu Zhuqing reacted quickly, immediately raising her head to stare at the boy, her small mouth slightly open, too surprised to speak.

Seeing this, Chen Shi smiled slightly: "Zhu Zhuqing, welcome to my world!"

"Snap!" A snap of the fingers!

The boy summoned a smart chip with electric arcs dancing on it, and the dark grove was gradually digitized, eventually forming a virtual science fiction world!

Having grown up in a family in the Star Luo Empire, Zhu Zhuqing had never seen such a scene before.

The kitten, who had become extra cautious because it had run away from home, was frightened by this scene and instinctively tried to escape, but Chen Shi grabbed its hand.

"Don't be afraid, this is my Martial Soul Domain."

Zhu Zhuqing was taken aback upon hearing this, but after calming down and confirming that there was no danger, she felt relieved.

Chen Shi then released her hand at the opportune moment and continued, "What you are seeing now is part of my vast archive of data!"

"Many familiar faces should be among them, including yourself, of course!"

As Chen Shi spoke, he waved his hand, and a data shadow resembling a ghostly cat was pulled in front of him.

(ps: In Chen Shi's Martial Soul Domain, whatever he wants others to see, she can see.)

At this moment, being there in person, Zhu Zhuqing's vision and mind were greatly impacted. In the darkness, she could feel that this ball of light and shadow was inextricably linked to her.

Chen Shi was not surprised that Zhu Zhuqing was staring blankly at the "Netherworld Cat".

Previously, when he took Xiao Wu to update and strengthen the Lingtu mecha, the little rabbit also resonated with the data light and shadow of the Soft Bone Charming Rabbit.

Once Zhu Zhuqing came to her senses, Chen Shi smiled again and said, "As long as I combine your and the Netherworld Cat's martial soul data, I can create a martial soul mecha that is perfectly suited to you!"

Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat unsettled: "You mean... I can also have my own Martial Soul Mech?"

"Of course, as long as I, Chen Shi, am willing to build it, you, Zhu Zhuqing, will be the next master of a Martial Soul Mech!"

With his hands outstretched, countless lines of code and data revolved around him, making him the absolute king in this space!

"But I'm not Xiao Wu, you don't need to help me like this..."

Although Zhu Zhuqing's emotions were stirred, she remained very rational, and unfortunately, she did not experience a sudden drop in intelligence.

Chen Shi had anticipated the kitten's concerns and was prepared, so he chuckled and said, "Zhu Zhuqing, I never said I would help you build your Martial Soul Mech for free, did I?"

"Want a mecha? Sure! But you'll have to pay the price!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing felt more at ease. After all, there is no such thing as unearned kindness in the world, and there is no such thing as a free lunch.

"Chen Shi, what kind of reward do you want? I don't have much money right now, but I'll work hard to earn more in the future!"

With such a great opportunity to become stronger right in front of her, Zhu Zhuqing really didn't want to miss it!

"Zhuqing, do I look like such a shallow person? Money is just a string of numbers to me~"

"What I want is you, to sign a contract with me!"

Chen Shi's sudden pause made the girl's heart skip a beat, but thankfully there was more to his sentence.

However, Zhu Zhuqing's attitude was unexpectedly firm this time: "I'm sorry, Chen Shi, I cannot sacrifice my freedom for the sake of the Martial Soul Mech."

The girl becomes stronger to fight for her freedom; we must not put the cart before the horse.

Upon hearing this, Chen Shi quickly interrupted her: "Damn it, I have a goddess contract, not some master-servant contract!"

"The Goddess Contract requires finding a female partner with both talent and good looks. Once the contract is signed, I will be responsible for providing the Martial Soul Mech, and you will provide me with a portion of your daily Soul Power cultivation."

"As for your personal freedom, there are absolutely no restrictions!"

After listening, Zhu Zhuqing's face showed a struggle and hesitation. Signing such a contract between soul masters was a lifelong matter, so she inevitably had to consider it carefully.

"Zhu Zhuqing, you don't need to rush to reply. Go home tonight and think carefully about what you really want!"

"Remember, this is a mutually beneficial relationship!"

"When you've figured things out and made up your mind, come find me at the cabin around this time tonight~"

Good things shouldn't be said twice. Chen Shi stopped there, put away the smart chip, and the virtual world disappeared.

After a brief greeting, the two said their goodbyes.

On his way back, Chen Shi put his hands behind his head, humming a little tune, and was in a really good mood!

Who would have thought that taking a bath in the middle of the night and turning on the toilet would lead to such a good thing?

Now that the fish has taken the bait, Chen Shi doesn't believe the kitten can resist the temptation of the Martial Soul Mech!

The next morning, at Shrek University's cafeteria.

Chen Shi and his companions were forced to come to this place in order to fill their stomachs...

"Da da da~"

Wearing low heels and carrying a tray, Ning Rongrong glanced at the dining table.

There was no one to Chen Shi's left, but there was a plate with a few carrots on it, which was obviously Xiao Wu's seat.

Zhu Zhuqing was in the corner diagonally opposite, but she had already finished eating and was tidying up to leave.

Upon seeing this, the young lady smiled and walked straight over, gracefully sitting down in the empty seat to Chen Shi's right.

The girl smiled sweetly: "Good morning, Chen Shi~"

The boy smiled back: "Good morning, Rongrong~"
