"So you couldn't resist and gave her a few more, and now she's eaten them all?" Wang Chong took a deep breath, walked directly to Skadi, and, under her somewhat shocked gaze, grabbed her shoulders and shouted, "Are you an idiot?!"
"Waaah!"
“Although that stuff is made from my blood, it’s also used to treat Ghost Shark’s illness, so it’s like medicine! You’re feeding her so much at once, not to mention whether it will be enough later, are you going to eat all the medicine prescribed for the next few days at once?! Aren’t you afraid of dying from it?!” Wang Chong shook Skadi’s body and said.
"Ugh..." Skadi wanted to run away because of what she was being told, but she found that she couldn't even move her shoulder. It felt like a huge mountain was pressing down on her, and Skadi felt like her boots were about to sink into the mud.
"Even if you're not afraid of dying from eating it, even if you're not afraid of being eaten to death by a ghost shark, have you considered how I, as a doctor, feel? This pill was made with my own blood. If you let her become addicted and consume far more blood each time than before, are you planning to let her suck me dry?" Wang Chong said, feigning anger.
"I...I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to, I'm sorry." She was weaker than her opponent, less imposing, and completely in the wrong. Skadi lowered her head, her previous aloof demeanor gone, replaced by a sheepish, guilty look as she repeatedly apologized.
"Stop bullying and teasing her, Mr. Wang Chong. Little Orca only acted this way because she couldn't resist me. If you want to blame someone, blame me instead." Just then, Skadi heard a familiar voice from behind. She couldn't help but turn around and saw Ghost Shark, whom she had knocked unconscious not long ago, walking out with a smile.
"That tone... Laurentina, you've recovered?" Wang Chong released Skadi, looked at Specter, and asked.
“Toscati fed me so many blood pills at once, and then stimulated me after being off blood pills for so long. Oh, and maybe I should also count the tap on the back of my head just now. That tap temporarily woke me up.” Laurentina slowly walked out and came to Skadi’s side, saying, “It’s been a long time, Skadi.”
"Lauren Tina, you've recovered?" Skadi asked in surprise.
"It's just a temporary thing, after all, my illness isn't cured yet. Maybe after I fall into a deep sleep again, I'll forget about you again." Laurentina shook her head, then smiled and pointed to the back of her head, saying, "Little orca, you really hit me hard just now."
"I'm sorry..." Skadi felt like she had apologized for almost as many times as she had in the entire previous year.
“Alright, it’s not your fault, Skadi. From now on, just do as Mr. Wang Chong says obediently, and don’t spoil the other me too much.” After Laurentina finished speaking, she looked at Wang Chong again, bowed slightly, and said, “Sir, you have indeed not forgotten your promise to me and have successfully helped me find my compatriots.”
“That’s to be expected, but it’s unclear whether any other Deepsea Hunters besides Skadi are still alive,” Wang Chong said slowly.
"I don't know, but my blood is vaguely telling me that there are other people still alive..." Laurentina closed her beautiful eyes and said unconsciously.
“I’ll do my best. The fact that we were able to find Skadi was by chance; she came to us herself. Now that the two of you are gathered here, perhaps your bloodline can attract other surviving Deepsea Hunters,” Wang Chong nodded and said.
"Then Laurentina thanks Mr. Wang Chong for his help." Laurentina said with a smile, then suddenly looked at someone who had been watching her and asked, "Who is that?"
“Oh, let me introduce you to Surtr. She will also be joining my special forces team from now on. Like you, she is also a long-lost comrade I have been searching for. Although we have reunited now, she has also lost all memory of me.” Wang Chong said without batting an eye.
“Oh, so you’re just like us. I really understand. Welcome to the special forces. I’m Laurentina, but when I’m not myself, you can still call me Specter.” Laurentina smiled at Surtr and said.
"You can just call me Surtr."
Although Surtr remained silent the whole time, she listened carefully and understood everything. It seemed that the other person, like herself, was also a patient suffering from intermittent memory loss. It appeared that her cheap boyfriend had not only been searching for her all these years, but had also been trying his best to research ways to treat this kind of amnesia.
This undoubtedly touched Surtr, although she didn't show any outward emotion.
"System notification: Surtr's favorability has increased by 3 points, and the current favorability is 85 points." However, the system's notification will inform Wang Chong about Surtr's changes.
Chapter 150 Special Operations Team?
"From now on, you will all be members of the special forces team, so you should get to know each other. I'll take this opportunity to go to the logistics department and call Lady Honeysuckle over as well, so we can hold a special welcome ceremony for Surtr that belongs to our special forces team."
As Wang Chong spoke, he headed towards the logistics department. Because she wanted to show Wang Chong her value as much as possible in order to repay his "selfless" behavior, even though she had joined the special forces and enjoyed the privilege of not having to deal with the various affairs of the Reunion Movement, she still went to the logistics department from time to time.
Her responsibilities were simple: learning medical knowledge and educating the children adopted by the Reunion Movement. This allowed her to contribute to the Reunion Movement while also regularly caring for little Lisa.
After Wang Chong left, the three women were briefly silent. However, Laurentina, being a social butterfly in some ways, quickly broke the ice by framing the events that had transpired while following Wang Chong. Especially since Laurentina's own situation was similar to Surtr's, the two soon found common ground.
When Wang Chong returned with Ren Dong and Xiao Lisa, he saw the three of them talking about their experiences during their previous travels. They happened to be discussing how Skadi had to join the ranks of treasure hunters to make a living because there was no currency in circulation on the continent.
"It seems like everyone is getting along quite well. You don't mind if I join in, do you?" Wang Chong said with a smile.
"We've been waiting for you, Mr. Wang Chong. Speaking of which, everyone is quite curious about your background. After all, a strong person like Mr. Wang Chong shouldn't be unknown," Laurentina asked with a smile.
"Alright, so you're starting to pry into my background," Wang Chong said half-jokingly. "What if I told you I fell from the sky?"
“Then I believe it. If there are kingdoms in the sea, why can’t there be in the sky?” Laurentina said with a light laugh.
"Your idea is quite peculiar." Wang Chong casually waved his hand, and a table and chairs quickly appeared in front of everyone. The table was also filled with some ingredients, and there was a barbecue grill and a pot for cooking soup next to it.
"How about some grilled meat and a stew to cut through the richness? We can enjoy it for lunch, and also as a welcoming ceremony for the newcomers."
……
"I'll take Lisa to take a nap first."
After a satisfying meal, the members of the special forces team got to know each other better. Because of her concern for little Lisa, Ren Dong decided to take her back with her.
"Okay, you take Lisa back and get some rest first. If anything happens, just let me know." Wang Chong said to Ren Dong while rubbing Lisa's head. "Lisa, you should also listen to your mother and teacher and study hard."
"Little Lisa will. Little Lisa wants to become an excellent mage like those older sisters and brothers," Little Lisa said with a smile, enjoying Wang Chong's pat on the head.
“Alright, I believe in Lisa. If you achieve something, your godfather will personally forge you a fine staff as a birthday present,” Wang Chong said with a smile.
"Really! Thank you, Godfather. Remember to give Lisa a nice nickname later!" Little Lisa said excitedly.
"Okay, definitely." Wang Chong rubbed Lisa's cute face, and after feeling Lisa's healing smile, he stood up and nodded to Ren Dong.
"Alright, little Lisa. Don't bother your godfather. He still has some things to discuss with the other sisters." After saying goodbye to Wang Chong, Ren Dong took little Lisa back to her house.
"How heartwarming." At that moment, Laurentina's voice came from behind Wang Chong.
"Laurentina, instead of catching up with your old friend Skadi, why did you follow us here?" Wang Chong asked, looking at the slightly tipsy Laurentina.
“If we talk too much, we’ll probably feel even more confused and uneasy later on. It’s better to keep things simple. Anyway, there’s plenty of time. There’s no rush.” After saying that, Laurentina chuckled and moved closer to Wang Chong, saying softly, “Besides, Mr. Wang Chong’s side is more interesting.”
"Mr. Wang Chong... this special forces team you created, you didn't deliberately choose them, did you?" Laurentina whispered in Wang Chong's ear, "We'll all become your targets, won't we?"
"Lauren Tina, do you enjoy teasing me so much?" Wang Chong asked, meeting Laurentina's gaze with a playful smile.
“Do you remember what I said, Mr. Wang Chong? I’m very good at observing… not just eyes, but all sorts of subtle movements and minute changes in expression. I can see them all clearly. After all, I used to dream of being a sculptor, so I’ve unknowingly developed such keen eyes.”
Laurentina said, looking at Honeysuckle's house, and whispered, "Don't you think that you, that lady, and little Lisa look more like a family when you stand together? And that Mrs. Volper is paying more and more attention to you, especially your interaction with Miss Surtr just now, that fleeting look of annoyance... tsk tsk, that's a sign of attraction, even though she thinks she's not."
"And then there's Miss Surtr, needless to say, it's obvious she likes you a lot. Although her expression didn't change, those intimate interactions were a clear tacit admission."
"Finally, there's Skadi... Hmph, you're the first man Skadi has met along the way who has seen through her true nature. Skadi looks aloof, but she's actually a bit of a quiet person, and often a bit clumsy. Of course, she's quite good at combat and maintenance."
Laurentina spoke eloquently, as if she were telling an interesting story, laughing as she continued, "However, most of the time, she's just like that, guarding her own place and doing her own thing. So... if external pressure were to intrude into her territory, although it would cause her to become tense and wary, if you could keep this little orca under control and give her enough security, it might actually arouse her curiosity and goodwill."
"So, the more playful and teasing it is between friends, the more likely this little orca will like it. Considering all this, the establishment of this special forces team... Mr. Wang Chong, am I right now?" Laurentina said with a smile.
At that moment, Wang Chong put his arm around Laurentina's waist and said, "Miss Laurentina, did you forget someone? Why didn't you say so yourself?"
"You know perfectly well what I'm asking~" Laurentina wrapped her arms around Wang Chong's neck and said, "I was the first one here, so I'm already in Mr. Wang Chong's hands, aren't I?"
"Can I take this as you confessing your feelings to me?" Wang Chong lowered his head, bringing their faces very close together.
“You can also think of this as a shark’s lure,” Laurentina whispered in Wang Chong’s ear again. “I saw through your intentions on the first day. But thankfully, my impression of you isn’t bad. And now, with your care day and night and helping me find my companions… you deserve it.”
"kiss~"
Laurentina kissed Wang Chong on the cheek, then said with a smile, "Next time I wake up, I'll come back for this kiss. Don't secretly bully the other me, okay?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Laurentina suddenly leaned forward and fell into Wang Chong's arms. Everything happened so abruptly.
"So it wasn't a confession, but a temporary farewell?" Looking at the unconscious Laurentina, Wang Chong knew that she had fallen into a deep sleep again, and he didn't know when she would wake up again.
"Ha... Let's go back." Wang Chong, carrying the Ghost Shark, started walking towards the dining area. As he turned the corner, he noticed two sharp gazes fixed on him.
“! Laurentina, what’s wrong with her…” Skadi stood up first and walked up to Wang Chong.
"It seems to have fallen into a deep sleep again, and will probably revert to its previous personality later." Wang Chong handed the Specter to Skadi.
"She's fallen asleep again, Shark..." Skadi took the Ghost Shark and then asked, "Mr. Wang Chong, can Laurentina recover?"
"If there's a second, there's bound to be a third, don't worry. Besides, Specter is still her, she's just having an episode. There's no need to treat her with any other perspective. Whether it's Specter or Laurentina, she's a comrade you can trust," Wang Chong said slowly.
“…I understand, thank you so much, Mr. Wang Chong. I’ll take the shark to rest now.” Skadi’s eyes flickered, as if she had figured it out. She nodded and took the ghost shark back to their house.
Chapter 151 Each with their own thoughts
After Skadi returned with Laurentina, only Wang Chong and Surtr remained on the field.
"Let's go back inside." Wang Chong waved away the black mist, tidied up the area, and then looked at Surtr and said.
After Surtr followed Wang Chong into his house, he sat on the edge of the bed. The greatsword was placed directly beside the bed, silently exuding a sense of oppression.
"You should rest here for now. I will give you some special training tomorrow." After saying this, Wang Chong prepared to leave Surtr's room and go find Talulah and the others to discuss the next steps.
"And what about you? Are you going to live with Talulah again?" Surtr asked, sounding slightly displeased.
“No, I have my own room here, I don’t live with Talulah.” Wang Chong said, half-jokingly, “What? Surtr, you’re willing to let me sleep with you?”
"Hmm." However, what awaited Wang Chong was a very firm answer from the other party. Wang Chong was slightly taken aback and saw that Surtr's eyes were filled with a serious emotion.
"you sure?"
“Aren’t we boyfriend and girlfriend? Isn’t this normal?” Surtr said, frowning.
"Hiss..." Something's not right. Wang Chong sensed something was off. He'd tried before, but Surtr hadn't succeeded, whether out of shyness or a feeling that their relationship didn't have the right spark. Why was Surtr suddenly willing now?
Suddenly, Wang Chong remembered Laurentina's teasing of him earlier, so he tentatively asked, "Did Laurentina say something to you?"
"No..." This time, Surtr's eyes darted off in a certain direction as she answered. Clearly, this was a sign of guilt.
She wouldn't mention that Laurentina had just heard about her and Wang Chong's situation and laughed at her, saying that if she couldn't even do these things, Wang Chong would really be completely taken over by Talulah, and she would have nowhere to cry then.
Although she didn't understand why she was crying, it didn't stop her from feeling annoyed after hearing what happened. She was Wang Chong's girlfriend too, so why was he able to monopolize him, even sleeping with him?
Therefore, Surtr began to take the initiative; she no longer intended to remain so conservative.
"Lauren Tina... she still caused me trouble after we slept together." Although Wang Chong didn't know exactly what Laurentina had said, he didn't know whether he should thank Laurentina or not for causing the current situation.
For some reason, Wang Chong suddenly had a strange feeling that if Laurentina remained lucid, was she really planning to help him turn the entire special forces team into a complete harem?
"Okay, I'll come to your place tonight. You'd better make the most of it." Wang Chong agreed immediately, then got up again, ready to leave.
"...Where are you going again?" Surtr asked.
"Going to a meeting? Have you forgotten that I still have to lead this Reunion Movement to fight against the Ursus Army Group?" Wang Chong said, then turned around and said, "What? You're getting interested in a meeting now?"
"No... never mind." Surtr shook her head. She had overheard Wang Chong, Talulah, Alina, and the village representatives talking at a meeting, and she had completely lost track of what they were saying. She had even fallen asleep as a result. She didn't want to experience something she couldn't understand at all.
……
"You mean... he found a new girlfriend outside? Or an old acquaintance? He's been looking for her for many years? And then she lost her memory and forgot about him?" At this moment, Frostnova, who was taking a break, was asking Talulah and Wang Chong about their experiences these past few days, and also inquiring about how her good friend was doing.
Unexpectedly, before she could even ask about her best friend, she ended up uncovering a new rival in love.
"This is a major crisis, Talulah!" Frostnova stood up abruptly and exclaimed, "This plot, this scenario, is just like those love stories I've heard before. He might just transfer all the care and affection he had for you to her!"
"Is it that serious..." A dragon girl who was already full, even stuffed, scratched her head, not feeling threatened at all, and even said, "Besides, where did you hear those love stories... None of us have these kinds of books."
“I heard it from Chong.”
"...That's all, you can continue."
“Don’t be so oblivious to danger, Talulah,” Frostnova said with a very serious expression. “Think carefully, don’t you have a lot in common with that woman named Surtr? You’re powerful, you use fire, and you even have similarities in some aspects of your personality.”
“That seems to be the case… Is there a problem?” Talulah asked, puzzled.
"Why don't you understand yet?" Froststar shook her head, looking at you with a disappointed expression, and said, "Haven't you always wondered why he fell in love with you at first sight? Now you know the reason, don't you?"
"You mean it's because of Surtr?"
“Yes, from your account, we can tell that before they were separated, he and this woman named Surtr were very close. Not to mention that they had already established a relationship, just knowing what the other liked, knowing about the other's amnesia symptoms, and spending a long time searching for her all demonstrate his feelings for her,” Frostnova analyzed earnestly.
"And in the process of searching for him, if he suddenly encounters a girl like Surtr who can use fire, is powerful, and has a similar personality, what do you think he would do?"
"Oh..." After listening to Frostnova's analysis, Talulah seemed to have a bit of an epiphany. So there was another layer of relationship involved. However, Talulah thought back carefully to this period of time. Although Wang Chong did seem to be very close to the woman named Surtr on many occasions, Surtr always seemed a bit reserved, and the two of them maintained a certain tacit distance.
On the contrary, she herself... had no idea how many times she had been in close proximity to Wang Chong. Especially after Talulah began to suspect that Wang Chong's seed fluid could also have a miraculous effect on Oripathy, she felt that her body was getting better day by day. Of course, the price she paid was long-term backache, hand ache, mouth ache, buttock ache, and leg tremors.
"I think I should be fine." This was the confidence that comes with being well-fed. Talulah knew very well that even if Wang Chong had only fallen for her because of that reason, now that it was Wang Chong who liked her, she didn't need to worry about his feelings fading. Maybe if she gritted her teeth and learned some new positions that Wang Chong had suggested, she could make him even happier.
"...So confident? Did something happen between you and him?" However, Frostnova had obviously noticed this as well. She keenly sensed the change in Talulah and asked.
"Uh... him and I... it's the kind of relationship you know about." Talulah said, her face flushed, somewhat embarrassed.
"!! You slept too?" Froststar showed a hint of surprise, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then it's alright. Since you've already slept, you must be pregnant with Chong's child. That way, we don't need to worry about anything."
“Uh…” Talulah suddenly remembered that Frostnova knew absolutely nothing about matters between men and women. Could she still believe that she could get pregnant simply by sleeping?
"I need to talk to Ah Chong sometime. I can't let Frostnova keep getting delayed like this. Besides, I'm sure that doing that kind of thing can help treat Frostnova's Oripathy," Talulah thought to herself.
"What is there not to worry about?" Just then, a familiar voice rang out from not far away. The two women looked up and saw Wang Chong, the person they were discussing, walking towards them.
"Alright, you two, I've been delayed by dealing with the special forces. Since it's our break time, why don't you tell me what the current situation is?" Wang Chong asked.
Chapter 152 News from Ursus
Soon, Wang Chong obtained some of the latest developments regarding the Ursus Legion from Talulah and Frostnova.
After the Ursus Empire's high command was furious upon receiving the news that their 10,000-strong army had been annihilated by them, leaving only a little over 2,000 who escaped, the news had enraged them.
Meanwhile, the Second Division Commander's arbitrary arrests of inbound travelers to serve as spies for enemy nations were exposed. The whereabouts and fate of those arrested were now unknown, prompting various countries to unite and exert pressure on the Ursus Empire. Ultimately, under the combined pressure of these events, the Second Division Commander, Tusis, was brought forward as the culprit and executed by slow slicing to temporarily quell the pressure from the various countries, promising to find the missing travelers.
After the death of its commander, the 2nd Division was merged into the 3rd Division. Local able-bodied men were also recruited as militia, expanding the division into a reinforced force of 40,000 men, ready to suppress the Reunification Movement. This combined division is currently undergoing integration and awaiting the completion of supplies. It is expected to depart in three days, successfully reach the forest on the fourth day, and begin its attack on the fifth day.
"The timing is pretty much what I estimated. We've returned just in time. How are the Reunion Movement's combat personnel doing now?" Wang Chong asked.
