Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start

Chapter 778: 775, Poisoned White-Headed Eagle Meat _1
 

“Why has Blue Star’s spiritual energy depleted?” Manina III asked with curiosity: “Aren’t the humans from Blue Star living well? How has the spiritual energy suddenly depleted?”

‘Spiritual Energy’ is a substance generated spontaneously from life itself, much like plants produce oxygen. As long as there is life, spiritual energy continues to be generated.

Manina III was familiar with a few examples of spiritual energy depletion. Typically, this involved a planet experiencing an environmental disaster leading to a mass extinction of species which would then result in the depletion of spiritual energy.

According to Pu Langte, the Blue Star humans hadn’t experienced a mass extinction event recently, so how did their spiritual energy suddenly run out?

“Who could I ask? The information provided by the Holy Silver Man didn’t reveal anything,” Pu Langte shrugged: “I suppose there are all sorts of mysteries in this vast cosmos. The spiritual energy of Blue Star got depleted in a way that we don’t understand.”

“Alright then,” Manina III pondered and nodded: “Fortunately, Blue Star’s spiritual energy reserves have run dry. Otherwise, with five times our amount of spiritual energy, we wouldn’t stand a chance against them.”

Hearing his words, Pu Langte couldn’t resist curling his lip: “But it’s not necessarily easy to defeat them now!

The Holy Silver Federation keeps providing buffs for Blue Star humans. Even common people can reach a third-ranking power level through games!

Therefore, the decisive battle in a little over five months will definitely be a great war. We can’t take it lightly.”

The two were descending towards the expeditionary force’s headquarters while discussing.

The commander of the expeditionary force, Langqi, was waiting at the headquarters.

Seeing Pu Langte and Manina III return, he quickly approached them.

From a distance of a hundred meters, he exclaimed, “Your Excellencies Pu Langte and venerable ancestor, there has been a significant incident on the Savage Continent!”

“You are Langqi, right? Take it easy, what happened?” Both Pu Langte and Manina III looked at Langqi with amicable glances, for he was to be the backbone of the future Raging Sun Empire.

“Your Excellencies,” Langqi quickly responded: “We’ve just received intelligence—Cao Cao, the strongest person from Blue Star has appeared on our planet, and he is on the Savage Continent!”

“What did you say?!” Pu Langte and Manina III shouted in unison, reacting vehemently.

Cao Cao had arrived! This was a big deal!

Without hesitation, the two transformed into beams of light and sped off towards the Savage Continent.

…

…

Zhong Feng was unaware of the matters regarding Prime Minister Cao Cao.

The arrival of Prime Minister Cao Cao indeed caused a huge stir within the upper echelons of Skru Star.

However, those in power were well aware that if such news spread among the general populace, it would cause great panic. Therefore, they imposed strict restrictions on the spread of this information.

No information about Prime Minister Cao Cao was currently available online on Skru. The netizens were still discussing the “betrayal of the Dragon Race”.

Returning to Zhong Feng, he had managed to make it back to Ti Qi’s intelligence post without trouble.

Looking back at the tense moments of “risking his life”, it felt like he had been dreaming.

“Welcome back, Mr. Lundell!” The extravagantly dressed Skuru girl at the reception greeted him enthusiastically as soon as he entered the restaurant.

“Lundell” was the name of his alter ego.

“Hi there, Seline!” Zhong Feng waved at her: “Where’s your boss?”

“The boss is on the top floor!” At this, the Skuru girl lowered her voice: “Let me tell you a secret—our lady boss personally prepared a feast for you. She has been waiting for you to come back!”

“She prepared it herself? I am truly honored.” Zhong Feng thoughtfully nodded his head.

…

Upon reaching the top floor, the whiff of cooked dishes immediately reached him.

However, because of the difference in taste and smell between Skru people and Blue Star humans, the tempting aroma didn’t quite appeal to him. Instead, it reminded him of the fishy stench of a seafood market.

It didn’t just kill his appetite, it was enough to turn his stomach.

“My dear!” Seeing Zhong Feng returning, Lisa threw herself into his arms, giving him a peck on his cheek and smiled: “My love, how did the trip to the Dragon Race Research Institute go?”

“The mission was successful, dear. I got the piece of information I was looking for most.” Zhong Feng reciprocated the peck on her cheek and engaged in lover’s play by running his hands all over her.

Under Zhong Feng’s touch, Lisa was panting. But she soon broke away and pulled him towards the dining room:

“Sweetheart, I knew you would have a successful mission this time. That’s why I prepared a feast for you.

There’s even an incredibly pricey dish—stewed White-Headed Eagle wing root! Just the wing root alone cost me two to three thousand Solar Yuans!”

“Oh, really? That’s fantastic!” Zhong Feng said gleefully.

As he approached the entrance to the dining room, he immediately noticed the chunks of stewed White-Headed Eagle meat in a container in the middle of the dining table.

This White-Headed Eagle wasn’t one of the tribe’s members but artificially bred by the Skru people for meat.

Looking at the chunks of meat, Zhong Feng couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. It was no wonder the White-Headed Eagle tribe and the Skru people had such deep-seated hatred.

Wouldn’t any intelligent being feel uncomfortable seeing their own kind being bred for meat?

…

The windows of the dining room were curtained, giving a somewhat dim hue.

Soft music played from a device mounted on the wall, and the glasses on the table were filled with freshly squeezed Leko Bug juice, setting the mood just right.

Once they had settled down, Lisa served a large piece of eagle meat on Zhong Feng’s plate, her face lighting up with a smile and said, “You must be starving after your hard work. Eat while it’s still hot!”

“Thank you, you’re the best!” Zhong Feng smiled and pecked her on the cheek before hungrily tucking into the eagle meat.

In truth, when he spotted the White-Headed Eagle meat at the door, he had decided against eating it.

After all, the White-Headed Eagle tribe was an intelligent race. Their high levels of intelligence were no less than that of humans. Therefore, Zhong Feng was quite averse to eating their flesh.

Besides, he knew about Su Yu’s intentions. Su Yu had planned to ally with the White-Headed Eagle tribe. Given that, what did eating their flesh amount to?

Yet, Zhong Feng ate it anyway because there was something off about the meat!

As a Druid, those from the plant-based branch specialized in toxins and were highly sensitive to different kinds of toxins.

Thanks to ample time spent gaming, he had some knowledge of the toxin branch and immediately recognized upon sniffing the meat that it contained a toxin, and not just any ordinary one!

His sense of caution was immediately raised: “This woman in front may seem all smiles, but she is actually trying to poison me!”

But Zhong Feng was an accomplished Druid from the Sanctuary. He feared no poison.

Therefore, without giving it a second thought, he devoured the sizable piece of meat.
