Chapter 288: Mother and Daughter Quarrel (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"That's right, in the future, you can see me in your original form, and you don't have to transform. I'm a very easy-going person, don't call me lord, just call me Cheng Shi by my first name. Besides, I haven't bought you land yet, but you've given me all the names of your lords. Cheng Shi waved his hand at the crowd on both sides and said with a smile.
Claude hehe: "My lord, we have lived in this universe for hundreds of millions of years, and everyone has seen it. But it's the first time we've seen a good person like you, I didn't expect you to be really, it's how offensive we were before, and I ask for your forgiveness. β
Cheng Shi looked at Claude and waved his hand indifferently: "It's okay, I won't mind this little thing." As I said just now, even after I buy you land, you don't have to call me a lord, you all call me Cheng Shi by my name, I'm not used to other titles. β
"Your Excellency, with all due respect, calling the lord by his name directly, I'm afraid it's a bit difficult for us, why don't I think of a compromise title for you, how about calling you 'Mr. Cheng'?" The word 'sir' is our honorific title for men, I don't know how? Claude asked respectfully.
Cheng Shi thought that the word "sir" is a general term for men on earth. On the side of the Krogan people, it turned out to be an honorific title, thinking that it might be the difference between different races and cultures, or the misunderstanding caused by the translation of the language. But this title is already the most acceptable in my own worldview.
So he nodded: "Yes, you will call me Mr. Cheng in the future." β
After the ceremony of welcoming Cheng Shi to the Krogan people was a little nonsense. Cheng Shi, led by Claude, began to visit the interior of the No. 6 force field barge.
When looking at the spaceship cabin where the Krogan people lived, Cheng Shizhen regretted that he hadn't been able to board their spaceship earlier.
He saw a few Krogan children sitting cross-legged on the ground, using oddly looking objects that looked like ship parts as toys, though they still had innocent smiles on their faces. But their small and thin bodies, as well as the patched clothes they were wearing, still made Cheng Shi a little worried.
Although Claude told Cheng Shi that their space race doesn't care about the harsh living conditions, as long as they don't stay in space all the time, they can always have a way to survive. But when Cheng Shi saw the living conditions of those children, he still felt very uncomfortable.
"Krogan, your suffering is over for and for all from today." Cheng Shi secretly swore in his heart that he would personally protect this group of Krogan people in the future until they were strong enough and capable enough to compete with the pinnacle civilization in this universe.
But there is also a premise that they must always be a civilization of good will.
Under the parade of the Krogan people in the No. 6 force field barge, Cheng Shi boarded the Kate Eagle spacecraft with a heavy heart, and then the spacecraft left the No. 6 force field barge.
"Master, the goddess has replied. As a result, we did not speculate before, and the current mermaid planet has completely returned to its normal state with the blessing of the divine realm information firewall. And the master's binding with the mermaid planet has also been lifted, and from now on, the master can make waves in other universes, and there is no longer any time limit. In addition, the goddess also has a voice message. Information Bridge 1510 reported.
Cheng Shi was not surprised to sigh softly, and then said: "Put out @Wang's voice message and listen to it." β
When the information bridge heard the voice, he silently released the voice message of the goddess Wang: "Cheng Shi, you did a good job, and you have given the old lady a long face again." You are really a talent, the old lady has sent several watchers to deal with the problems of the mermaid planet before, but none of them have been solved. I didn't expect it to be completely solved by you, the most junior half-novice, which is really a bit unexpected.
"Although the old lady still hasn't fully figured out what you still have to do with the mermaid planet, none of this matters now.
"In addition, by the way, I would like to tell you, the Neteight Company has moved to the eighteenth basement floor of your house. The design inspiration for your four basement floors in spring, summer, autumn and winter is good, and my wife was enjoying the snow in the winter layer when I sent you this message, and it felt great.
"Also, the little tree man has been taken away by the old lady, and the old lady will play for two days and give it prenatal education."
Cheng Shi heard that what the goddess Wang said before was all nonsense, and the last sentence made him instantly shocked into white sweat.
"Xiaoqiao, @ζ±ͺζε°ζ δΊΊθΏηι½η«―θ΅°δΊ? Why didn't you say a word to me beforehand? Cheng Shi rushed to the rear cabin of the spacecraft at great speed, and asked with a shocked face when he saw that the octagonal experimental table was empty.
"The goddess came to get it, and it wasn't sent back by this ship, what do you want me to say?" "Besides, the goddess won't kill casually, since she personally came to take the little tree man, it means that it may have encountered some problems in its growth and development, and these problems are not within the scope of the master and the ship." The master should not worry about the danger of the little treeman's life because of the way the goddess expressed his problem, it is completely unnecessary. β
What else could Cheng Shi say, it was impossible for him to snatch the little tree man back from the female leader, so he returned to the wheelhouse of the spaceship with his head down.
In order to thank Cheng Shi and the others for helping their mermaid race find the Holy Mountain of Deland, the mermaid queen specially set up a banquet in the mermaid palace to entertain them.
After Cheng Shi returned to the mermaid palace, the mermaid queen pulled Cheng Shi to her side and announced to everyone present that Cheng Shi was not only the benefactor of their mermaid race, but also her alien nephew, and would enjoy the privilege of coming and going freely in the mermaid kingdom in the future.
Although Cheng Shi really wanted the Krogan people on the force field barge to enjoy this gluttonous feast, due to their different eating habits, they did not eat these deep-sea seafood. And what they want to eat, there is no one here in the mermaid kingdom, so they can only give up.
Temporarily free, North knew that her brother would leave shortly after eating, so she took advantage of the mermaid queen's inattention and quietly ran out of the mermaid palace and slipped into the back compartment of the Kate Eagle spaceship.
Cheng Shi didn't stay long in this gluttonous feast, mainly because he was now thinking about fulfilling his promise and going to the Kobleno Space Trading Market as soon as possible to help the Krogan people buy that piece of land, so that the poor race could embark on the road of racial revival as soon as possible.
"North won't leave with you this time, I'm going to take care of her." The mermaid queen said after sending Cheng Shi and the others out of the mermaid palace.
Cheng Shi nodded: "I will come over often in the future, one day if you want her to go out with me to see the world again, just talk to me." As long as you have anything to do with me in our main universe, you can call me through the communication device I left for you. β
When Yang Yang heard Cheng Shi promise the Mermaid Queen not to take North, he began to mumble in Cheng Shi's ear, but Cheng Shi ignored her at all.
After the group returned to the Kate Eagle spaceship, Cheng Shi sent a message to Claude to set sail.
In an instant, the Kate Eagle arrived at a designated location in the Mermaid Galaxy, where the Information Bridge was to reopen the portal to a designated location in the Andromeda Galaxy.
At this moment, the voice of the mermaid queen came from the wheelhouse of the Kate Eagle spaceship: "Cheng Shi, how can you be like this, you kid nodded in agreement on the surface, but made small moves behind the scenes." Did you sneak your sister away again? Send North back to me. β
Cheng Shi was startled, looked around left and right, and found no trace of the mermaid sister. Just as she was about to say that the Mermaid Queen had wronged her, North stepped out of the back compartment and came to him.
Cheng Shi slapped his forehead, looked at the mermaid sister helplessly and said, "When did you come up?" You know? Brother can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River now. β
"Hmph, you lied to me!" North pouted angrily, "You said you'd find a way to take me away?" That's not what you think at all, but I'm glad I figured it out myself, huh! β
"Your Royal Highness, it was North himself on the ship, I didn't know beforehand. She doesn't want to go back now, why don't you communicate with her directly? Cheng Shi reluctantly replied to the mermaid queen.
"North, get back to me immediately, if you don't obey this time, this will be the last time you will go out with your brother." The Mermaid Queen shouted in the communication channel.
"I don't want to go to class, no, no. The last time is the last time, and it won't come back after the big deal. Gnossar protested, while Yang Yang was silently cheering her on.
"You have been the mermaid master for hundreds of years, how can you talk to Wei Niang like this in front of so many outsiders in the spaceship?" The Mermaid Queen roared again.
"Where are the outsiders? Who are the outsiders? You have time to go to the earth and look at the pictures of your brother and mother that look exactly like you. The rest of the people in the spaceship are all family members of my brother. North explained aloud.
"You think I can't go to Earth without a spaceship for our merfolk, do you? When the time comes, I'll go to Earth and get you back, it's not as simple as putting you in a magic water ball, you'd better get back to me now. The Mermaid Queen's voice was menacing.
"I don't believe you can go to Earth without a spaceship." After North finished speaking, he motioned for Cheng Shi to close the communication with her mother.
Cheng Shi obviously wouldn't listen to North's words, and instead discussed with her that he wouldn't confront the mermaid queen head-on this time, and would take her out next time, but the little mermaid couldn't listen to anything now, and just didn't want to go back.
"Then you just wait, when I go to Earth to get you back. Cheng Shi, take good care of your sister and take her with you. After speaking, the mermaid queen took the initiative to hang up the call.
In the few minutes that North and the Mermaid Queen were arguing, the ten stand barges of the Krogan people also rushed over.
North insisted on going his own way, and Cheng Shi really didn't want to risk the breakdown of his brother-sister relationship and forcibly send the mermaid sister back, so he could only take her with him.
