People are collapsing iron, they say I am a greedy messenger

It feels a bit weird...

"I'm sorry. It's my custom... to open my senses through touch, to help me understand your biology."

Ruan Mei's eyes remained indifferent, but with a hint of the excitement of a researcher:

"But don't worry, I don't think this behavior is offensive... Your tongue is very special, reminding me of Oboros, but it seems a little different from the photo that the Black Tower showed me?

And the horns on your head, those scales... remind me of the immortal dragonborn, is it some kind of mimicry?"

Chapter 139 Tasting

"Yes, these are some side effects. They temporarily changed my appearance..."

Yue Yan told her roughly about his previous experience, concealing some parts, such as the system's portable space and so on. He only said that he made the gluttonous dragon fruit pie using some dragon-related materials and his own flesh and blood.

"By preparing and consuming special dishes, you're able to retain your intelligence while safely wielding your dangerous powers. Miraculous... You're far more miraculous than I imagined. Is this also a gift from greed?"

Ruan Mei murmured:

"Your identity is enough to drive any scientific researcher in the universe crazy. Fortunately, Black Tower only told a few people, otherwise Dr. Yuanshi might also have evil intentions towards you.

But that's not necessarily the case... He probably doesn't have the confidence to escape from your hands alive. Although Dr. Original has behaved badly, he still cherishes his life very much."

"Uh, that... Miss Ruan Mei, can you let go?"

The girl felt a little embarrassed - because her tongue hadn't been retracted yet and was still being pinched by the other person, and the wind was drying it out, making it a little uncomfortable...

"Ah, sorry."

Ruan Mei reluctantly let go of her hands - her silk gloves were already wet with saliva... sticky, and when she put her two fingers together and spread them apart, she could pull out a thin thread, which looked crystal clear under the lights of the space station.

She observed it curiously. "On the surface, it looks no different from the saliva secreted by ordinary humans. Is it because of your appearance?"

He casually took off the glove on his right hand and put it into his storage device. He wiped his fingers with a wet wipe and took out a new one to put on.

"Would you like some cakes?"

She pointed to the pastry plate she had placed aside:

"The space station platform is very spacious and the scenery is beautiful, perfect for the aroma of lotus leaves, plum blossoms, glutinous rice, and icing sugar...

The blue planet ahead is wonderful and full of life, and so is this cake. I'll share half with you."

"Ah, thanks."

Yue Yan reached out and picked up a piece - she didn't think Ruan Mei would put drugs in it like in the original plot, or even if she really did put drugs in it, it wouldn't have any effect on her... just eat it with confidence.

However, just as she was about to take a bite, she was interrupted by Ruan Mei.

She asked with some doubt:

"You eat with this mouth?"

"Eh?"

Yue Yan was stunned for a moment: "What else?"

"Oh, I thought you'd prefer using that tongue..."

She thought thoughtfully: "After all, it seems more convenient. I don't have to put it close to my mouth."

"That's right..."

The girl took a bite of the sweet pastry - it tasted delicious:

"But I'm still more accustomed to eating with a human mouth, so I only use those tongues occasionally... Besides, showing those tongues to others would easily scare others."

Ruan Mei nodded:

"Well, that's right..."

"By the way, I heard you like pastries, so I made some and brought them over."

Yue Yan was about to take out the desserts she had stored in her system backpack to share with the other party: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I made a lot. You..."

"Shhh."

But before she could finish her words, she felt the other person's index finger gently touching her lips:

“Although it’s spacious here and the scenery is nice, it’s not exactly quiet…there are still too many people on the space station.

The noisy environment and dim sum don’t go together. Come with me to a quieter place.”

As she spoke, she walked to the side. Yue Yan pursed her lips and followed her.

The Black Tower Space Station was quite large, and Ruan Mei led her into a small room.

That seemed to be Ruan Mei's exclusive lounge, with beds, drinks, snack machines, and mini plum blossoms in pots that were in full bloom. Through the window, you could see the azure stars outside the window. The scenery was beautiful.

Yue Yan took out the exquisite wooden box from the system backpack, placed it on the table, gently pressed the metal devices on both sides, and the lid popped open... On the top was the peach golden cake she made, which was not processed in any additional way, steamed, and fried.

A sweet scent of warmth and happiness flowed out the moment it was opened, blending into the surrounding air. Ruan Mei seemed a little surprised when she smelled it, and there was also a very subtle, imperceptible joy:

"It smells like coconut milk and taro flour, which is a common ingredient used by the Xianzhou people and is very suitable as the main ingredient for pastries. It also has a spice... that I have never seen before.

It's a very pleasant scent, a bit like ripe peaches and vanilla, but with a lot of differences."

“Yes, that’s an accurate judgment, I added a rare spice to it.

If nothing unexpected happens, I'm probably the only one who has this kind of vanilla right now... but because of its unique properties, it's not suitable for mass cultivation, so you can only taste it here."

As Yue Yan spoke, he pulled out the small drawers of the wooden box one by one and placed them neatly on the table - peach cakes, mung bean cakes, egg yolk cakes, ice cream, etc.... all kinds of snacks, even puffs and cloud top cookies.

Every time she pulled out an item, Ruan Mei's mouth would raise an imperceptible arc. She looked at those delicate and lovely pastries and smiled:

"You seem to have been preparing for a long time."

"It didn't take long actually... I made these last night. I'm very efficient when cooking, and the same goes for desserts and baking. Try them."

Remember mentioned earlier, Yue Yan had developed extremely high cooking efficiency in her previous life because she had to cook for those college students... and since she grew a tongue some time ago, she simply used it as a tentacle, and could use it to cut vegetables with a kitchen knife.

When cooking, she multitasks, doing the work of ten people. She can cut vegetables and put them into the pot in one go. You can tell at first glance that she is a hero among cooks.

"Oh, right... these cakes have some special effects. For example, this golden cake will make you emit a fragrant scent for the next two hours after eating it..."

The girl reminded:

"But it doesn't have much of an impact and won't cause any harm to the body. For example, this almond tofu can repair some of the damage to the body after eating it."

"Ah, that's okay... These cakes look delicious, especially this one. I've seen similar techniques before, using a low-heat oven to create rising bubbles and then carving patterns into the cake..."

Ruan Mei picked up a piece of steamed golden cake with chopsticks. After steaming, it looked more oily and it was still emitting steam, reflecting the light of the lounge. Both its appearance and aroma made people's appetite increase.

Carefully put it to your mouth, blow away the cool air, and take a bite——

The special fragrance and coconut milk melted a little the moment they touched the tip of the tongue, and rushed in together with the smooth and chewy texture of the golden cake when chewed.

The sweet scent and aroma are delightful – like falling into a thick mattress of marshmallows.

Chapter 140: Very cute, I don't hate it

"Well……"

Ruan Mei ate a whole piece, savored it for a while, and then asked, "What's it called?"

"Fragrant Peach Golden Cake... The original name was Golden Cake. Fragrant peach is the name of the special spice I used."

She nodded:

"Hmm, that's a pretty good name for it... Can you tell me how to make it?"

"Okay, but verbal instructions aren't very accurate. I'll send you the recipe later."

She took out a teapot and brewed some tea. The lounge was filled with the aroma of tea as the tea slowly brewed. Looking at the table full of pastries, Yue Yan suddenly felt a little regretful that she didn't make some salty snacks. After all, eating sweets without them was a bit greasy.

Fortunately, there are pre-prepared dishes... You can use the universal synthesizer to directly make savory snacks such as steamed buns.

Although it is definitely not as good as the ones she made by hand, this kind of thing is like Ubisoft's canned food. It is definitely not suitable to eat it every day, but there is nothing wrong with trying it occasionally.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the cakes on the table were slowly decreasing... Ruan Mei kept praising the girl's cooking skills and tasting the desserts. It seemed that all her attention was focused on this, and she didn't mention anything related to the commission at all.

Although Yue Yan enjoyed the process of eating, she knew that the other party had not called her over simply to eat with her, so she decided to use her subjective initiative:

"So... can you tell me about your commission?"

"Ah, of course no problem."

Ruan Mei nodded and put down the half-eaten egg yolk pastry in her hand:

“I hope you can become my assistant and help me with some things… You are one of the few people who are qualified, and the source of customers for the space station is not reliable.

Your other companion, she's helping test our simulated universe, so I chose you."

"assistant?"

The girl smiled slightly and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to study me?"

"Well, well...I actually really want to do this. Very, very much, dear."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ruan Mei seemed to have a switch turned on and suddenly moved closer.

She stared straight at Yue Yan, her beautiful eyes, devoid of any human emotion, frightening people. However, a hint of the excitement of a researcher still lingered in them.

"The composition of your flesh and blood, your ability to digest stars, your power to change physical properties, and this beautiful body—there's not a single part of it that I wouldn't want to touch and study.

Just like this golden pastry, filled with the flavor of coconut milk, sugar, and peaches, you exude a fatal attraction in my eyes, making me want to get closer, closer..."

At the same time, her body was getting closer and closer, causing Yue Yan to move back in fear, until she was at the very back, with nowhere to retreat.

So close that I can almost smell the warm peach scent from the other person...

Although Ruan Mei is very beautiful, and is a traditional Chinese style beauty with three no attributes, which is very appealing to people...but this feeling of oppression is too strong.

Yue Yan complained secretly - if it doesn't work, just knock the other person out. We don't want to do this job anymore.

Ruan Mei stretched out her right hand, as if wanting to touch her, but stopped just before she touched her. Then she stood up and sat back down, sighing. The slight excitement turned into regret, and the strange feeling of oppression disappeared in an instant.

"But unfortunately, I'm afraid you won't agree... or you absolutely won't agree, and I can't use any coercive means on you.

I can honestly tell you that if you were just an ordinary dusk ancient beast, you would have been knocked unconscious by me and crammed onto the spaceship for blood tests.

But even Yu Qingtu can't make a potion that's truly effective for you, so let's get down to business."

"I've been thankful more than once that I have the power."

The girl shook her head and suppressed the restless power in her body:

"What exactly is the commission?"

Ruan Mei took a sip of tea and calmly recounted the cause and effect of this commission:

“When I first arrived at the space station, I borrowed Sisikar’s creation—the Phase Spirit Fire—from the Black Tower, hoping to gain some inspiration from other members’ research.

I did have some inspiration, so I started cultivating life in the space station...

In my imagination, these new lives should be a species of genius born from birth. I planned to name them after the Eighth Siram, but something unexpected happened during the experiment..."

She really has a special liking for pastries...so much so that the new lives she nurtured were all made into delicious pastries, even with different crusts and fillings.

But unfortunately, although these little guys have self-awareness, they have nothing to do with genius. Instead, they ran to the space station because of Ruan Mei's free-range education method.

She didn't want the Black Tower to get involved in this matter, so the content of this commission was to ask Yue Yan to help recover these genius creations.

Of course, the girl who has read the plot knows that the so-called new life is just the tip of the iceberg... Her truly great creation is now hidden in the confinement section of the Black Tower Space Station.

A replica of a Breeding Order - the Star-Breaking King Worm, Skara Kabaz. The original owner was the offspring of the Insect King himself, and inherited some of its power. Later, it disappeared along with the dead Breeding Star God.

Ruan Mei obtained its data through simulating the universe and cultivated its replica in the Black Tower Space Station... I can only say that she is worthy of being a genius. She even dared to clone the envoy, and the key is that she really made it happen.

However, this copy is much weaker than the original, and its body size has become very small. It also cannot possess the actual power of a commander and can only move with the body and instinct of a beast. This is because the power of a commander comes from the bestowal of the star god.

But the star god in charge of reproduction... was killed by the Amber King's three hammers countless Amber Seasons ago, and he is probably still fighting a resurrection match with Lao Da.

"Perhaps you can ask the members of the World Species Department... You just need to contain them. The members should provide you with a place for containment. If you want, you can put them in a place you think is safe.

I can give you a reward after the commission is completed... I can satisfy whatever you want."

Having said that, seeing Ruan Mei's indifferent expression, Yue Yan, who had just been teased by her, came up with a plan. He deliberately put on a malicious look, moved a little closer, and asked:

"Is it true that any reward will do?"
