Chapter 114: Skittercrabs
Hearing the sound of hubby, Chen Lings all feelings of guilt vanished instantly. He even felt that anything was worth it for that one word!
They both started giggling like fools, looking at each other with smiles on their faces.
Hehehe~
Heehee~
They looked at each other with silly grins.
So whats your secret code? Sui Lier pursed her lips, looking at him with anticipation.
Chen Ling cleared his throat: Ahem~ Eat your meal, my wife.
Hee~ Mmm!
Ding~ Sui Lier, points +1 billion!
Seeing the 1 billion points again, Chen Ling even felt a sweet sensation in his heart.
He sat quietly next to Sui Lier, watching her chew her food. Her cheeks puffed out as she ate, and her small mouth would occasionally pucker, resembling an adorable little goldfish.
Its worth mentioning that the volcanic eruption and volcanic ash in the Qianling Volcanic Gorge were once again suppressed by the Aries Constellation and the Pisces Constellation.
After finishing their busy work, they started looking for Chen Ling! However, they couldnt find any trace of him.
After breakfast, Chen Ling brought Sui Lier to the Pisces Deep Sea Palace in the Water Nation.
The Water Nation was located right next to the Fire Nation, a country situated in the center of the ocean. Pisces, Cancer, and Scorpio were all included in this country. Surrounded by the sea on all sides, it was enormous in size.
The Deep Sea Palace was situated beneath this vast oceanic nation, deep underwater at a depth of ten thousand meters. One could either take a magical submersible from land or dive directly into the ocean, depending on ones strength. There were various methods available.
However, reckless actions could result in death. The sea was teeming with gigantic curse beasts, especially in this area. The coastal regions of the Water Nation suffer the most frequent attacks from these curse beasts.
From time to time, terrifyingly powerful curse beasts would emerge, so the Water Nations defense forces were large and formidable. Whenever a curse beast appeared, they would immediately mobilize to prevent further destruction and slaughter by the beasts.
The entire Deep Sea Palace was covered by a barrier similar to the one Chen Ling had created in the Misty Rain City.
Outside the barrier, thousands of multicolored lights capable of illuminating underwater floated, making the dark depths of the sea bright and clear. Beautiful fish gently floated outside the barrier, appearing as if they were flying in mid-air. The colorful light shining on them was incredibly beautiful.
Inside the underwater palace, numerous oxygen generators were built into the infrastructure, constantly supplying oxygen to the inhabitants of this underwater world. In terms of daily life, it wasnt much different from life on land, except for one word: beauty!
Its so beautiful~ Sui Lier looked up at the endless deep sea all around, feeling deeply moved. Anyone who came here couldnt help but be amazed by its beauty.
This was one of the most distinctive cities in the Water Nation, after all, it was the capital of Pisces. A few years ago, she had the opportunity to come here once when she was searching for Chen Ling. She secretly boarded a submersible on the surface.
Due to her curse, she didnt have to pay for any public transportation. This time, she didnt have to pay either, but it felt different.
At this point, out of the over 4,000 people who passed the assessment yesterday, around 3,000 had already arrived. The remaining ones who hadnt arrived yet were probably delayed due to the volcanic eruption caused by Chen Ling when they left yesterday.
They didnt die, but it was uncertain if they would be able to participate in todays assessment. Due to the volcanic ash, long-distance magical flying vehicles were in high demand, and it was unknown if they managed to secure seats.
At this moment, there was an announcement being broadcasted in the underwater palace.
All individuals participating in todays assessment, please proceed to the South Gate of the Deep Sea Palace. The assessment will begin in two hours.
Upon hearing this, Chen Ling was speechless. Two hours? Damn, they should have said it earlier. I came here for nothing.
Two hours meant four hours. Couldnt I just lie on the sofa at home and cuddle with Sui Lier? Should I go back and wait?
Sui Lier stood beside Chen Ling and smiled lightly. Its alright. Itll be quick. Shall we go and have some fun? I know a place thats great for leveling up!
She was just happy as long as she was with Chen Ling, no matter what they did. Meanwhile, waiting was something she was not afraid of. After all, she had waited for ten years. What were two hours?
Of course, for Chen Ling, waiting for two hours was absolutely not acceptable.
Alright, lets go. Lead the way.
Hehe~ Sui Lier reached out her little hand and activated her skill: Hand Holding~
Chen Ling smiled faintly and said, What about the secret code?
Hehe~ Hubby~ Hand Holding~
Hahaha~ Chen Lings heart felt so sweet hearing her call him that.
Hmm~ What are you laughing at? She rarely saw him so happy.
Cough~ Nothing. Chen Ling blushed and held Sui Liers little hand.
And what about me?
What about you?
Sui Liers cute little brows lightly furrowed, and she muttered in a small voice, Wu~ You didnt call me Wif Her voice became smaller and smaller until it couldnt be heard anymore.
Only then did Chen Ling realize that he had been too caught up in his happiness and forgot about her.
Wife?
Hehe~
10 billion points were added to his account.
Looking at Sui Liers joyful expression, he wondered: If they really ended up together, would this little girl go crazy with joy? He couldnt help but feel the anticipation.
Chen Ling, look over there, its so cute! Sui Lier pointed to something that a child was stepping on in the distance.
The child was stepping on two strange things that seemed to be living creatures. They looked like a mix between a crab and a spider, with lots of legs, but they didnt appear scary.
Their bodies were fuzzy and meaty, with a beautiful orange-yellow color. As the child stood on them, pointing forward, he happily shouted, Xiao Hei! Xiao Bai! Go ahead!
Upon hearing this, the two adorable little creatures quickly carried the child and ran forward. They were fast but stable.
The little boy had a joyful smile on his face, resembling a carefree skateboarder. These were special pets in the Deep Sea Palace, called Skittercrabs, a type of small-sized crab-like magical creature.
They were purchased in pairs, and the Skittercrabs had a shared consciousness, allowing them to synchronize perfectly. They even had some human-like intelligence, understanding commands after training. These high-quality pets were cute and obedient, popular among children, and served as a trendy means of transportation among them.
After reaching their destination, the little boy happily jumped off and ran to the side. The two adorable Skittercrabs felt the weight on their backs disappear.
At first, they were a bit startled, but then they turned around in place, searching for their young master. When they spotted his figure, they quickly followed him, catching up in no time. They climbed up his leg and settled on his shoulder, retracting their crab legs, turning into two little furballs, and peacefully rested.
The little boy felt their presence and happily tilted his head, rubbing against the fuzz on their bodies. The two little crabs also seemed content and extended one leg to scratch their heads.
Wow, so cute! Sui Liers heart was melting. Thats the Skittercrab! Its super adorable!
Inwardly, Chen Ling remained unfazed. Multi-legged creatures? Whats cute about them? Theyre not even one-tenth as cute as Sui Lier.
Can we eat these? Chen Ling looked at the two furballs with confusion. Although they had a lot of fur, it should be easy to pluck it off with boiling water. Crab meat tasted pretty good.
??? Sui Lier paused for a moment and imagined Chen Ling eating the crabs. No, you cant! Theyre so cute! How could you eat them?
Aww, Chen Ling! Dont do it! You cant eat them!
Ding~ Sui Lier feels scared, -10,000 points!
Chen Ling couldnt resist her pleading, so he quickly dismissed the idea. Just kidding.
Aww, dont make such scary jokes! Upon hearing this, Sui Lier finally relaxed her tight grip on his hand. Earlier, she had been holding on tightly, afraid that he might run off and harm the two little furballs.
But this time, it was Chen Ling holding her hand firmly, and Sui Liers entire hand was enveloped by his large hand. A strong sense of satisfaction made her cant help but purse her lips and /FanTranslations
