"Hehe...um...if it's possible...can you...call me mom?" Qianxue made some requests that were difficult for me to accept.

"This...uh..." His throat moved, but in the end, nothing came out.

This request is so... so weird... I... I really can't say it...

"Ahahaha...it's okay, no need, no need, haha...it was just a joke...hahaha..."

"Aunt Qianxue..." I breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily she was just joking...

In fact, it was just one or two words, and there was no difficulty in saying it, but... facing Aunt Qianxue, or anyone else, it would be impossible to say these one or two words...

"Um...what kind of fish is this..." In order to prevent her from saying something embarrassing, I began to actively change the subject.

And to be honest, I couldn't tell what kind of fish they were.

And it's already cooked, how can I recognize it...

Only she knew what kind of fish it was. Now I asked her what kind of fish it was. When I get back, I can order directly from the cafeteria at Korolo Apartment.

This stuff is pretty delicious.

"Oh...this fish...these are...these are some alien species." Qianxue said after thinking for a while.

"Alien species?" This alien species...can't it be...a species from outside the world...

"Yes, that's right. They are alien species, fish from other worlds."

"Uh..." It's true...

"There are actually quite a few foreign species, and we don't know when these species came here, but fortunately they haven't caused much damage, and there's nothing special about them, they just taste better."

"We are now trying to capture these alien species to prevent any potential risks. But don't worry, they are still edible."

"Oh...I see..."

"It tastes good, right? Don't just eat the fish. There are also these. Eat some. Come and try them all." Qianxue smiled and pushed some of the other food she had brought towards me.

"Well...then...these? Are they also alien species?" Looking at the other foods on the table, I gradually realized that these foods were very unusual.

When Aunt Qianxue brought in everything one by one, I didn't notice anything wrong, but now the more I look at it, the more it seems wrong.

Even though it was cut into slices, you could still see some sense of incongruity.

"Yes, that's right. They are all alien species."

Uh... okay...

As long as it’s edible, it’s fine. It’s not like I haven’t eaten things from other worlds before.

I have eaten various exotic fruits at the Midnight Tribe, and I have also eaten some other meats at the Guardian's place.

Anyway, as long as it's edible.

"Uh...Aunt Qianxue...you eat too..." I noticed that Aunt Qianxue didn't move her chopsticks, but just watched me eat. For a moment, I felt that the food in my mouth was a little difficult to swallow.

I can't eat when people are looking at me...

"Oh, it's okay, just eat it. We've already eaten. It was originally prepared for you. But I didn't expect that only you, Xiaoyun, are left. What a pity. Xiaofeng can't have it." She said, standing up.

"Eat first. I'm going to take care of some things. If you want to leave later...please say hello to me." Qianxue said and left the house.

She should be directing the people outside to fight against the monsters that keep attacking.

It's quite strange. There are monsters outside attacking the ship, but I didn't expect she still has time to cook for me.

I shook my head and tried not to think about anything else and focused on eating, but after eating for a while I realized something was wrong.

This ship... is retreating, right?

Yes, they are indeed retreating. Aunt Qianxue said that this ship is carrying the command level and there are not many combat units, so they need to withdraw from the battlefield first.

So...how long has it been driving now?

I do the math...

From the time I discussed with Qianfeng on this ship what to do with Korolo to the time the boss controlled Ke Momo to suddenly take Korolo away, it took about ten minutes, right?

And from that time on, Aunt Qianxue brought me so much food...

Seeing that almost everything on the table was eaten, I estimated that it would take about ten minutes, right?

This adds up to about half an hour.

So where did the ship retreat to in half an hour?

My mind was active, and I spent a few minutes picking up the remaining food. After eating, I quickly opened the door and ran to the deck.

Sure enough, Aunt Qianxue was on the deck wearing her armor-like protective suit, directing others to defend against the endless stream of monsters.

"Xiao Yun?" Qianxue also saw me coming out of the cabin, so she walked over quickly.

"You've finished eating so soon?"

"Well... I'm done..." It's just a meal, how long will it take...

But to be honest, there was a lot of food on the table, and it all went into my stomach, so relatively speaking, I probably ate a little too fast.

"Do you need my help?" Although the attacking monsters were weak, there were quite a lot of them, and I thought maybe I could help her.

"The biggest help you can give me now is for you to go stay in the room downstairs..." Qianxue said helplessly while touching my head.

"Uh...why..." Doesn't she believe in my fighting ability?

"Hiss... This is a long story. To put it simply, do you remember the last time you and Xiao Feng were looked for for many days?"

"Remember..." Of course I remember. Those idiots couldn't catch us at all. They were too lazy to pay attention to us after we had been walking them around for two days.

"The matter that time has not been resolved yet, so it would be better if you don't appear in the sight of these people casually." Qianxue pushed me towards the cabin and used her body to block the sight of most people.

"Okay..." I didn't expect that those people were still looking for trouble...

"Be good... I'm sorry for the injustice you have suffered. We will settle the score with them later." Qianxue said.

"Unfair... eh ha ha... I haven't been wronged that much..."

"No, that won't work. The account still needs to be settled." Qianxue raised her eyebrows. It seemed that she had some plans of her own.

"Okay...um, when can we...wait for the support you mentioned? Uh...also, when can we reach the shore..."

I remember that the surveillance camera in the apartment can reach the shore, which means there is a signal there. As long as I reach there, I can use headphones to contact Qian Feng.

"Maybe, there will be no support, and...it's unlikely that we can reach the shore." Qianxue patted my shoulder and pointed me in a direction.

I looked over there for a long time but couldn't find anything wrong.

That is, far away over there, there were ships that clearly did not belong to this country, also fleeing while defending against the monsters attacking from the sea.

And further away is the huge pillar that is hard to ignore...the giant tree.

That thing actually grew into a giant broccoli-like tree, and it grew on the sea.

You're not lacking water, right?

Wait... this direction?

I realized something was wrong.

From my current position, to the left and front of the ship is where the giant tree grows.

And I clearly remember that when I boarded the ship, it was sailing completely in the opposite direction of the giant tree. There shouldn't be that giant tree in the front left direction.

It should appear at the back...

"See? This ship is circling the broccoli plant, and so are the other ships."

It was then that I realized that the other ships in the area were also sailing in circles around the giant tree like us.

"Why..." Why are you circling around? Just drive away, why are you circling around it...

"Pfft... It's not that we want to go around in circles..." Qianxue said as she pinched my shoulder.

"As soon as we adjusted our direction and wanted to leave, we only ran a short distance and somehow ended up in this direction. Look, we are turning again and will have to come back and circle back later."

"This..." Aunt Qianxue's explanation gave me an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

I couldn't get out of this area, and I walked and walked and somehow ended up back here.

Isn’t this the characteristic of the source world?

In other words, this sea area has become an independent space?

"Don't you have any signal to contact your...headquarters?" I asked casually.

"Yes...that's right." Qianxue nodded with a wry smile.

As expected, this area has become similar to the characteristics of the source world...

"So you can't go back to the shore for the time being... When will Xiao Feng come to pick you up... Maybe only you have a way to leave here..."

"..."

No...I think it's tough...

The source world also has a teddy bear body, or a medium thing. So is there such a thing as a medium here?

Even if there is, where should it be?

"Okay, now you understand the situation. Now go back to the room downstairs. I'm sorry to have troubled you, Xiaoyun." Qianxue touched my hair and pushed me into the cabin.

"Wow..."

The sound of violent water flow echoed around the ship, and when I turned my head to look for the source of the sound, I saw a giant octopus tentacle.

Brown octopus tentacles covered with some kind of mucus and equipped with densely packed suction cups.

It emerged from the sea with a lot of water stains and hit the deck, causing the people on that deck to run away from it.

And there is more than one octopus tentacle...

"Aunt Qianxue... uh... do you need my help?"

Chapter 251, Cherish

The giant octopus that attacked the ship was a little bit difficult to deal with, but I managed to take care of it in the end.

The reason why it is difficult to deal with is because it is immune to physical attacks to a certain extent.

Each of its tentacle was incredibly elastic, and a punch would knock it back quite a distance, but it was swaying as if it hadn't suffered any damage.

On the contrary, the sticky liquid on it caused me some damage.

Psychologically...

After all, if you give it a punch like that...it's so big, right? If you shake it, it's all liquid...

Although I dodged in time, it was inevitable that I was still affected by some of it.

The final way to deal with it was to use the boundary jade to make a long sword of more than ten meters and cut off its tentacles that were entangled with the hull. Only then was it finally dealt with.

However, the main body may not have been solved, because the main body has never appeared and has been underwater. If you want to solve its main body, you have to go into the water.

Are you kidding me? My clothes finally dried, and you asked me to go into the water...

However, after I cut off its tentacles, it tactfully left, so I didn't have to go into the water.

"So this is an octopus, right?" Aunt Qianxue and I stood on the deck and observed the tentacles that I had cut off.

From the outside, they look like ordinary octopus tentacles that have been magnified several times.

However, from the cross-section I cut, its internal structure is a little different.

It turned out to be some common meat-like internal structure, with some cartilage vaguely visible.

Is this thing really an octopus?

"It might be an octopus. At least from the appearance, it is an octopus." Qianxue said as she took out a dagger from somewhere and walked forward.

"This octopus... should be edible, right?" She cut off a small piece of meat from it, examined it carefully, and then threw it into the sea.

"Go to the kitchen! Process these things and see if they are edible. If they are, process them and preserve them." Qianxue directed the people on the boat to process the octopus tentacles.

"Aunt Qianxue..." It's not necessary... Can you eat this kind of thing...

"Don't worry, this thing looks fine and should be edible. When I've processed it, I'll make you something to eat. How about it?" Qianxue smiled, rotated the dagger between her fingers twice, and stuck it into a slot on her leg.
