Regret youthful ignorance
Chapter 411 Spicy Crayfish
Now, Chen Luo was saying top five, hoping to get more seafood to evolve faster.
This news was incredibly good for the seafood, especially those ranked fourth and fifth.
Soon, the top five swam beneath Chen Luo, excluding the giant sea turtle.
Chen Luo smiled, "After the meeting, come with me, and I will bestow Divine Power upon you."
The giant sea turtle mustered its courage and said softly, "Sea King, I'm number one in performance, why am I not included?"
Instantly, all the seafood looked at the giant sea turtle, thinking, 'This kid has some nerve!'
Shuhe Turtle looked at his cousin, thinking, 'I knew it, my cousin is super brave!'
Chen Luo explained kindly, "You've already advanced to the King level. The Divine Power needed for further advancement is quite a lot, and your performance isn't enough yet. Save it up, save it up. After a full year of consistent performance, I can bestow Divine Power upon you to reach above the King level."
A year? For a giant sea turtle that had lived for over a thousand years, it was nothing.
The giant sea turtle joyfully thanked him, "Thank you, Sea King. I will definitely work my hardest… exert all my strength."
Above the King level, just thinking about it was exciting.
Chen Luo told the later arrivals, "You can also join in this month. Good performance will allow you to advance to the King level faster."
Chen Luo's expression turned stern again, "The bottom three each month will be punished."
Dare to slack off and try to stagnate.
Some of the newcomers asked puzzledly, "But why do we need to transport humans?"
Chen Luo said, "Because I need them to work for me. You also need to have your people help me find something."
"Well, the next meeting will be in a month. It will be held monthly. Bring me all those who have received my Divine Power."
"Now, gather at another beach to transport the humans. The smaller ones will escort them along the way."
At this moment, Beibei, already at the King level, said softly, "Sea King, I would like to follow you. I wonder if I have that honor."
Beibei was a pearl clam, similar to Hai Ji, but she completely lacked Hai Ji's fighting talent. Among the King levels, she was absolutely at the bottom.
She was just lucky enough to eat some mysterious meat, and the parts she ate were of higher quality, allowing her to advance to the King level earlier than other seafood.
Without a backer, she would be bullied or even eaten, so Beibei desperately needed to find one.
Was there anyone with thicker thighs than the Sea King?
Chen Luo looked around. Currently, he only had Hong Deng as a maidservant, which indeed lowered his status a bit.
As for Ning Shuang, tch, she had her sister to back her up, so she was untouchable.
Hmm, this Beibei was quite pleasing to the eye, so he would generously grant her wish. He would let her and Hong Deng accompany him. It would be quite stylish to have two maidservants when he appeared in the future.
Gathering four wouldn't be impossible either.
With a wave of his hand, Chen Luo instantly moved Beibei to his side.
Beibei was visibly startled, experiencing spatial displacement for the first time.
Chen Luo revealed a kind smile and reached out towards Beibei's face.
Beibei was stunned. She wasn't ready for this.
Chen Luo reached out and took the pearl from Beibei's long hair.
He had wanted it for a long time.
This pearl was crystal clear and round, a little larger than a ping-pong ball, shimmering with a sky-blue light. It was very beautiful.
Hai Ji also had one, which Chen Luo had tricked her out of when they first met.
That pearl had the function of repelling water.
Did this pearl also have magical functions?
It was too difficult to get in the previous life. In this life, if I want it, try not giving it to me?
Chen Luo held it in his hand, and immediately, a cool and comfortable feeling came over him.
Beibei said nervously, "Sea King, this is my companion pearl. It can enhance my ice-based abilities. Without it, my strength will decrease a lot."
It can enhance ice-based abilities?
Taking a subordinate's things in front of the seafood would be too unsightly.
Was Chen Luo shameless?
He would take it when no one was around.
Chen Luo waved his hand, "Go to the beach. There will be people there to arrange things for you. Remember to listen to the arrangements. Don't blame me for being ruthless if you dare to disobey."
The seafood obeyed and began to leave.
Chen Luo smiled at Beibei again, "With you by my side, who would dare to bully you? What's the use of your strength? When you're in danger, I, the Sea King, can instantly appear by your side."
Beibei suddenly understood. That's right, I'm not the lonely little pitiful thing I used to be. What's the use of this pearl?
If the Sea King likes it, then of course I should give it to the Sea King.
Beibei said, "Sea King, please take it."
Chen Luo sighed, "How can I take your things?"
Beibei said, "I don't have any gifts to offer you. It's my honor that you would take a liking to it."
"It's not good, I'm too embarrassed."
"Oh, alright, alright, I'll accept it, but don't cry."
Chen Luo called out, "Hong Deng, take Beibei with you to manage things."
Hong Deng cursed inwardly, 'Green tea. You're almost on equal footing with me. Isn't it just because you're pretty?'
Hong Deng didn't dare to delay and was about to take Beibei away.
Just then, a large lobster swam over quickly, anxiously saying, "Wasn't there supposed to be a meeting? Where is everyone? Did I come to the wrong place?"
Chen Luo sized it up, his saliva already brewing.
Such a large lobster, how delicious would it be?
Chen Luo didn't have any thoughts before because it wasn't tasty. Now that Ma Yu had improved his methods, he could try making a lobster hotpot.
Most importantly, judging by its size and aura, this lobster was no longer at level ten, but had reached the King level.
It was already fattened up. There was no need to continue raising it.
The large lobster also saw Chen Luo and the others, "Hey, do you know where the Sea King is?"
Hong Deng scolded, "This is the Sea King. You're late for the meeting. Don't you have any respect for the Sea King?"
The large lobster cowered and said, "I overslept."
Wasn't that a good enough reason?
Chen Luo sneered, "You like to sleep, right? Then sleep some more."
Chen Luo gestured, and Jiang Chuxue and Hai Ji repeated their old trick, easily killing the King-level lobster.
Chen Luo changed his mind. He wouldn't make lobster hotpot, but spicy lobster instead.
Hong Deng had already taken Beibei away. Beibei was very excited. She had gotten into management as soon as she arrived.
Chen Luo took the top five performing seafood and had them wait on the shore, one by one.
"Sister Yu, quickly make spicy crayfish."
Chen Luo couldn't wait.
Heat the oil in a wok, add the spicy seasoning, put in the lobster legs and tails, and then add black leaves.
The tempting spicy aroma filled the courtyard. In the evening, the already chilled spicy crayfish was served.
Of course, Jiang Chuxue had to be called over, along with some chilled beer.
"Hiss, refreshing."
Everyone ate with oily mouths.
The body and internal organs of the large lobster were given to the giant tree.
Today, he had obtained two King-level crystals and half a body.
He also let Chen Luo and the others eat half.
The giant tree had already produced another King-level fruit, but according to the agreement, this fruit had to be given to the giant tree itself.
Should he give half of the lobster to the giant tree as well? After all, it could produce fruit.
Tch, who cares about that one-sixth of a King-level crystal?
