NIKKE, after maxing out the favorability, all the Nikkis are not right

"Spiders? You really know how to eat them, Marian. Why have I never thought of eating spiders before? Maybe they are poisonous, so my body subconsciously rejects this protein. But it doesn't matter. I will try my best to overcome this feeling."

When Snow White heard that Marianne was cooking dark food, she not only did not back off, but became even more excited.

Her biggest advantage is that she is never picky about food.

From cans to bricks, the extremely hungry Snow White eats everything, and even a passing dog might get bitten.

Snow White, who was waiting for dinner, heard footsteps and glanced at Green and Crown. "Good evening, are you all well?"

Green nodded and said, "It's not bad. It's just a minor injury that doesn't affect my walking. I just feel a bit of pain when I do strenuous exercise."

Snow White pursed her lips, a trace of self-blame flashing in the corner of her eyes. After a moment's silence, she said, "I'm sorry. No matter what, it was my judgment that was wrong this time."

Green shook his head and comforted her: "It's okay. Talking about regrets now will only make you feel bad and will do nothing. Why don't we think about what to do next?"

"Xiaocao and Indivilla, they both hold grudges, especially the vicious Indivilla. I bet they'll come back for more."

"But everyone knows that I have an important position in the Ark and cannot stay in the castle forever. How are we going to deal with them next time?"

Before dinner, Green took the opportunity to raise his concerns.

Although Indivilla was hit by the antidote bullet and would inevitably fall into a period of weakness, the effect of the antidote was short-lived. Judging from Nihilista's recovery time, the heretic would be able to return to normal in about a week or two. If there was a suitable prey, the recovery would be even faster.

After this period of time, Indivilla will inevitably launch another attack.

She is so sinister and cruel, she will never let go of any grudge.

Hearing Green's concerns, Crown smiled and said, "Don't worry. If Indivilla and Xiaocao dare to attack the castle again, I will definitely repel them once again."

"Very confident, but Miss Crown, heretics cannot be killed."

"We don't have to kill them. Beating them until they dare not come again might be a good idea."

"so……"

While everyone was chatting, Marian, who was cooking dark food by the stove, fell into deep thought.

She has had a lot on her mind lately, but it's hard for her to express it.

Because these are secrets that cannot be told to others... But no matter what, Indivilla and Xiaocao, she must solve this troublesome problem once and for all and cannot let those two guys continue to do evil.

After making a plan in her mind, Marianne returned to her usual smiling self and continued to make her delicious broth.

"By the way, I just saw a mecha on the city wall. Is that also a product of the kingdom? But I always feel like I've seen it somewhere before. Let me think, it should be the Gilo of Missilis, right?"

Green remembered the mecha he had seen on the city wall before and couldn't help but ask.

"Mr. Green, do you know Ji Luo? She's Nikki, the mecha pilot."

The crown nodded and acknowledged Jiluo's identity: "She arrived not long ago. Because of some problems with the mecha, she stayed in the kingdom for some time."

"I see. I didn't expect her to come to the kingdom."

Green folded his arms and looked around, but there was no sign of Jilo. He thought that the timid and somewhat inferior Nikki was still afraid of contact with people from the Ark.

"It's okay. I won't tell Fang Zhou anything about the castle. The same goes for Ji Luo. If Shu En knew about her affairs, she would definitely be punished."

"..."

"Marianne, is the broth ready?"

"It's almost done, Commander. Go call Lapi and the others. They should be cleaning up the battlefield with Zhong Ming right now."

Marian responded, then asked Green with some confusion: "Commander, I remember you said before that it's forbidden to bring things from the ground back to the Ark without permission. Why are you letting Labi and the others clean up the battlefield now?"

"Although it is illegal to bring back Letcher's parts from the Ark without permission, I believe it is necessary to conduct research on Letcher."

"The details of the Letcher's habits, body structure, and composition piqued my curiosity. We know how to eliminate the Letcher, but when you think about it, we know nothing about this creature except its weaknesses."

"So I also privately contacted a researcher at Ark, hoping she could help me with some personal research...but she also quoted a price, and for that price, how should I put it, I'm not sure if I can afford it."

Green remembered his previous contact with Esther.

Probably after the Ark was attacked and Missilis's stock price plummeted, Esther took the initiative to come to his house and talk to him about the problems between Nikki and humans, as well as issues related to the Ark's power source, and vaguely hinted that she wanted a new backer.

Being mid-level in Missilis is not a good choice.

Because this means that researchers like her may be liquidated at any time and anywhere.

So she went to the outpost to inspect it without telling Shuen.

The result of the investigation was that she could help Green do some research that went beyond the law, but the price was that if Ark liquidated her in the future, he had to protect Esther no matter what.

"The Commander is really getting more and more powerful, and more and more handsome!"

Marian wore a gentle smile as she chose a large bowl and poured a spoonful of her cooked spider soup into it. Then, she held the full bowl out to Green and said, "Commander, please have a drink. There's not much meat in the castle, but luckily I caught a lot of game today! Otherwise, everyone would be starving."

"Uh……"

"Marianne, may I ask what ingredients are in this?"

"It doesn't have any special ingredients, just centipedes, spiders, and some wild boar and pheasant meat mixed together. Don't worry, I've disinfected it, so it shouldn't be a problem!"

"Okay, then I'll try it."

"..."

"It's a bit too salty. I'll bring you some recipes next time."

Green picked up the bowl and took a sip of the broth cooked by Marian. Her cooking skills were really terrible. She could only be considered a beginner. She had a bad control over the amount of salt.

"Is it salty? Let me try it!"

Snow White took Green's bowl without hesitation, and Green happily gave her the remaining broth. After taking a sip, Snow White licked her lips and praised it loudly.

"It's very meaty and refreshing. I think it's great. I'll have another bowl!"

"You could have just said the last four words, Snow White."

Green twitched his lips and pointed out Snow White's thoughts directly: "Marian, make her another bowl."

"Eh? But the rest should be left for everyone to drink, Commander!"

"It's okay. I brought a lot of dry food and canned food. If it's not enough, we can share it later."

"Ok!"

317

Chapter 317 I want to be your citizen, Miss Crown.

About half an hour later, the castle's restaurant finally became lively.

With a thud, Anis placed a box filled with Letcher's cores on the table. She then wiped the sweat from her forehead and panted, "I'm so exhausted! It turns out I'm not cut out for this kind of trash-picking job. Commander, do we really have to take all this junk from Letcher back with us?"

Before Green could reply, Snow White retorted, "This isn't junk; it's made of fine metal and parts."

"Remember, there are no military factories on Earth to make body parts for you. If you lose an arm or a leg in the wild and can't evacuate to a safe place, you'll have to use Letcher's body parts to replace them. So don't complain. If you can't return to the Ark one day, you'll have to deal with Letcher's remains sooner or later."

"Okay, okay, you're right. By the way, Snow White, has your right hand been completely replaced with Letcher's parts?"

Agnes stared at Snow White's right hand.

The white skin of her left hand could still be vaguely seen, but her right hand had long been replaced by black parts. The parts used in that black prosthetic limb were obviously not from the Ark model, but more like those produced by Letcher.

"Yes."

"My body is too old. I haven't replaced my weapons in a long time, so I had to pick up some parts from Letcher to replace the damaged parts."

"But remember this: don't move complete Letcher parts onto your body. At least I haven't tried that. Generally speaking, I disassemble their parts into metal before making them. After this treatment, the body won't have any rejection reaction."

Snow White nodded and answered honestly.

"..."

After listening to Snow White's little advice, Rabbi's eyes seemed a little wandering.

Fusing Letcher's parts with Nikki's body, isn't this the prototype of a heretic...

Although it sounds like a way to enhance one's combat power, this technology is still too immature. No one knows what will happen after the Letcher's parts are grafted, so it is better not to try it lightly.

"Let's not talk too much, let's eat, everyone~"

Nien pushed his glasses down, walked over to Green with a smile, and asked, "Master, what are we having for dinner tonight?"

"Do you want some broth cooked by Marian?"

Green generously pushed the bowl of soup in front of him to Nian.

"Master, that piece of meat in the soup...if I'm not mistaken, it looks a bit like a spider!"

“Is this really edible?”

"Of course you can eat it, Nian."

Marian suddenly smiled and walked over to Nian's side, interrupting their conversation somewhat forcefully: "Snow White once said that when on earth, we must make full use of everything and not miss out on anything edible, so please try it too."

"Uh uh uh……"

"Marianne, I'm sorry, I seem to have a stomachache today!"

Nian made a bitter face. She really didn't like eating this kind of game.

"Really? That's a shame, but it's okay. We can eat after Nian comes back from the bathroom."

Marianne chuckled and became more aggressive.

"Wow, Master, I don't want to drink spider soup, save me!"

"Spider is just another form of protein. Just give it a try."

"No!"

Some people gloat over other people's misfortune, while others look sad.

Dinner started in such a lively manner. A large table of Nikkis gathered together to eat, and to be honest, it was quite noisy.

Especially when Green took out his supply box and put the canned bacon and other delicacies on the table, the atmosphere suddenly became more heated. Nian ate in small bites, Agnes ate in big mouthfuls, Snow White rushed to eat, Rapunzel ate while reading a book, Honglian took a few bites and started drinking again. Marian, on the other hand, no longer had the stubborn look she had when she was fighting with Agnes and Nian for the chicken legs. Her eating manners became a little more elegant, just like an adolescent girl who began to learn to maintain her personality in front of her lover.

"Wow, it's so lively!"

"Miss, I didn't expect there would be such a lively day in our castle!"

Zhong Ming looked at the large group of people gathered around the table, and a look of joy appeared on his face. "Don't you want to say something, Miss? Perhaps take this opportunity to give a speech?"

"Ah, t-this..."

"Well, young lady, you don't have to say anything! I know you are always wise and powerful, but today you are too tired to speak. Let me, the minister, speak for you!"

Zhong Ming coughed, then raised his voice and said seriously, "Ahem, I'm truly grateful for your assistance today. Thanks to you, the kingdom was able to survive Letcher's attack unscathed."

"To thank you all for your help, I'll spend some money to get you all some good food and drinks."

"Let me show you the treasures I've plundered from the ground over the years!"

Zhong Ming chuckled, turned and walked into the kitchen, opened a cabinet, and brought the aged fine wines she had collected from all over the world over the years to the table.

As soon as Honglian saw the label on the bottle, her eyes widened. "Brandy, tequila, vodka...these are all good wines that have long been discontinued. Zhong Ming, where did you get them?"

"Hey, I'm Nikki, who's very good at searching and digging for treasure. Naturally, I have my own treasure-hunting methods. And this is only a part of the kingdom's collection. There are many more antiques piled up in our warehouse. If you like, how about I pick a few for you? Just think of it as a reward for the brave!"

"Miss, you don't have any objections, right?"

"Of course, the Kingdom has always been generous to its people."

The crown nodded generously.

Anyway, those things were picked up by Zhong Ming. Strictly speaking, they should be considered Zhong Ming's personal collection, but Zhong Ming said so for the sake of the king's dignity.

"Did you all hear that? Since the young lady is so generous, then go ahead and pick yours."

"I'll serve you some first!"

With a thud.

Zhong Ming took out another large box from a cupboard.

The box was filled with dusty antiques and various items, such as books, CDs, albums and so on. Green even found many hot swimsuit magazines and good Japanese comics in it.

"Look at these books. They are the heritage of human civilization."

Green pulled out a zither fanzine. Although some of the words on it had been erased by time, the ancient painting style still had a unique flavor now.

"Oh my god, this is a collector's edition of the Dragon Ball comics, and it's a complete set. If this thing is put on the Ark auction website, it will sell for at least 20 million credits, right?!"

Nian excitedly took out a complete set of comics from the box.
