Chapter 3
Up and down the whole body, naked, the R18 area began from the waist down.
Shen Mian silently withdrew his gaze, using the bedhead as support to stand by the bedside. There is no third living creature in the room, which means that the "dragon cub" is the man in front of Shen Mian.
Even if the metal dragon under the dream dragon is a villain, they are the size of a palm. It is impossible for them to be this size.
"My name is He Xing."
The man smiled and asked him: "Can I have some clothes?"
Shen Mian pulled out a set of pyjamas from the cabinet and threw them at him.
The man who claimed to be He Xing got out of bed and put on the clothes in front of Shen Mian. He was tall and st.u.r.dy, Shen Mian's pyjama's didn't fit him well. The sleeves and trousers were short, several shocking scars on his body showing.
He Xing sat on the bed and patted the quilt: "Come and sit."
Shen Mian ignored him, leaning on the table, the scars on the man's body were circling in his head- all fatal injuries, this man is obviously a troublesome character: "You came here just to ask me for clothes?"
He Xing smiled at Shen Mian and shook his head.
He was pleasing to the eye, his eyebrows were a bit sullen, but when he smiled, the sky became clear.
"I was injured a little," He Xing tapped his temple, "I wasn't quite sure what was wrong, I didn't have a sense when I changed into a dragon. I saw you in the wastelands before and was attracted to your abilities so I have been following you. I just absorbed the power factors that you didn't use and unexpectedly recovered. However, I feel like it won't last much longer and will maybe change back in a while."
Shen Mian: "Go to the doctors if you are sick."
He Xing: "I don't have money."
Shen Mian: "I also don't have money."
He Xing answered without blinking: "That's okay, I don't want your money, but your people."
Obviously he's greedy of his own abilities.
Shen Mian moved to the dormitory door and concisely said: "Then why don't you hurry up and leave while you still have a sense."
He Xing really is R18 that fits Shen Mian's first impression: "I'm so sincere in selling, you really won't consider an alpha like me? I can fight and sleep…"
Halfway through, he suddenly disappeared.
Shen Mian froze for a while, then there was a wriggling movement in the pyjamas. Shen Mian squeezed He Xing's tail, this unlucky dragon was so utterly wrapped around his wrist that he didn't even resist when he was squished flat.
Sure enough, he didn't seem very smart.
What injury, this idiot reduced intelligence to combat it.
Shen Mian set his mind on throwing him out but also worried that this little dragon would starve to death.* He repeatedly told himself that this thing saved him before, so he closed his eyes and shoved him into the pyjamas and threw him on the table.
Although He Xing fell asleep, Shen Mian still had a lot of things to deal with- he had to sort out all the centre's belongings.
The two hundred star coins from Gian, that used to buy twenty nutrient solution's, had already been spent.
The original owner's account has more than 2000 fans. After receiving a lot of rewards in the last live broadcast, he will get 1700 star coins after being divided. He also received many private messages, all wondering what happened to the original owner after the incident.
Shen Mian thought for a while and decided to find some articles from the broadcast platform to do next. However, what should he broadcast… Shen Mian watched many live broadcasts and videos on Cat Eye Live and found that the countryside lifestyle has recently been popular.
How about live broadcasting farming.
Most of the childcare centre is vacant land that hasn't been maintained. They have fertile black soil that can be used to grow plants. Using Shen Mian's wood ability, there will be no problem growing anything.
Shen Mian entered the virtual mall with the holographic gla.s.ses that came with buying the light brain and was just about to place an order for two packs of seeds when he suddenly saw the red pig next to him.
The introduction to the agricultural product is listed below: human domesticated white pig and domesticated edible wurm hybrid piglets, the quality of the pork is high and the growth cycle is short. Note: Red pigs are very aggressive, even in large-scale farms, there are cases of farming robots being destroyed, single-person breeding is extremely risky.
In the survival base his last life, he raised more than two thousand people and watching six hundred pigs, Shen Mian's heart was moved.**
Four hundred coins per head, they can be slaughtered in three months. Although they can only grow to around one hundred catties, the price for one catty can reach forty star coins.
Buy one, just buy one, there is absolutely no loss. There is even an abandoned ring in the centre's backyard, which should've been the centre's livestock subsidiary before.
Shen Mian's fingers moved slightly, one piglet and two packs of seeds were ordered. The other party promised that it will be delivered by 9 o'clock the next morning.
8 o'clock the next day.
Shen Mian's red piglet and seeds arrived.
The four hundred star coins red pig is a piglet that just reached a month, not much bigger than a cat and around ten catties (6kg/13.23lbs). Adult red pigs generally don't exceed 150 catties (90kg/198.42lbs) because the wurm pig hybrids are usually very small.
The red pig was delivered in an alloy cage. Both male and female red pigs
Gian crouched in front of the cage, the red pig ramming into the cage hard, creating a loud noise.
Gian was startled, "It's so fierce!"
Shen Mian is currently debugging the live broadcast room and reached for Gian behind him: "Don't be afraid."
Gian held his sleeve and nodded.
After Shen Mian finished debugging, he started live broadcasting.
Cat Eye's live broadcasting platform uses holographic technology to digitise all objects captured by the light brain. As long as the audience uses holographic mode, their five senses will be normal in the live broadcast room.
The background data of the live broadcast room will be presented in front of Shen Mian's eyes through the holographic gla.s.ses connected to his light brain, without him having to stare at the background all the time.
Because the place where the last live broadcast was interrupted was so thrilling, as soon as the broadcast started, the number of viewers skyrocketed, a white barrage was presented before Shen Mian's eyes.
"Dream Dragon is the best in the world: The anchor is still here! I thought the anchor was eaten by a wurm."
"Pork pie: Is the anchor still going to the wasteland today? Last time we saw a wurm before entering the innermost area. Will there be more powerful wurms the further in we are?"
T/N: The pork pie here refers to not the western ones.
"I want to drink c.o.ke: Where did this idiot in front come from? Are you excited to instigate the anchor's death? I wish you to be eaten as soon as possible."
"I love ancient earth culture: To be reasonable, the anchor himself is going into the wilderness to explore, right? Are you blaming us if something goes wrong? Are we the one instigating it?"
…
Before Shen Mian even spoke, the barrage was already noisy.
Shen Mian expressionless: "Today I'm broadcasting… raising pigs."
Barrage: "????"
More than a thousand people in the live room felt that the anchor went crazy.
Say, if you have such a face and don't want to seek death, you can also rely on your face to be a live chatting anchor, right?
They came here to see him seek death, not to watch him raise pigs… Besides, even if it's a handsome guy raising pigs, it's not eye-catching.
Barrage:
"Lao Tzu is the cutest in the interstellar: No, Lao Tzu is the anchors face powder****! Lao Tzu loves the anchor's face! The anchor should become a celebrity, I will definitely support you."
Shen Mian glanced at the barrage and raised his eyes to look directly at the camera.
His hair and pupil colour are dark and he looks cold and focused when staring.
"Lao Tzu is the cutest in the interstellar: Suffocating in place."
Shen Mian has never been an anchor in both of his lives and had more of a quiet temperament, he simply picked up the alloy cage: "Red pig."
The audience in the live room was stunned, the people originally leaving the room became excited again- it's a red pig! This small but highly aggressive livestock has become a celebrity animal on Starnet since it was successfully bred. Every year, a large number of pig and farm robot fighting videos will be contributed to the Starnet users.
It can be seen that sand sculpture citizens2 have existed throughout human history and even breaks the existence of racial divisions.
Shen Mian walked to the backyard carrying the alloy cage. The red pig continued to collide with the cage. The fangs and forehead constantly hit the cage, several alloy bars deforming.
Gian followed behind him, "Dean, won't its head hurt?"
"It won't," Shen Mian put down the cage and stared at the pig with Gian, "It has a hard head."
Gian and Shen Mian squatted together and naturally, it was captured by the light brain as data and was projected into the live room.
Fans who followed the original owners live broadcast knew that the original owner was the dean of a childcare centre on a bordering planet, but this was their first time seeing the centre's dragon cub. When the original owner used to broadcast, he was mostly running around in dangerous areas away from the centre.
It has been less than 100 years since the establishment of the human civilisation and dragon Empire. The two different races basically know each other from the Starnet and the large website where the Starnet connects people with dragons is only in Shen Mian's live broadcast on Cat Eye Live.
Even a planet such as Water Star is at the border of the two civilisations and is has mixed races of both humans and dragons, the star has far fewer humans than dragons. At least there is no second human as Shen Mian's neighbour.
Therefore, after the human viewers in the live broadcast room saw Xiao Gian, the barrage instantly increased and became densely packed, all asking about Gian.
Barrage:
"Sweet and sour spare ribs: Oh my G.o.d a real dragon cub! The dragon anchors on the Starnet are basically all adult dragons. This is my first time seeing a dragon cub! I don't research dragons, asking what kind of dragon this is, it looks so good!"
"Saint Mary: Same question! It's s.h.i.+ning like a gem!"
"Death rays: To the person in front, a gem dragon, right? The gem dragon should be the most famous dragon among the human race. Their scales and crystal spines are very famous. Anchor, is your cub a little malnourished? I feel like the scales aren't as s.h.i.+ny as other gem dragons, you should be nicer to the cub."
Shen Mian saw the barrage and looked up at the live broadcast room: "Do you think my nutrition is good?"
"Xi Laiya's husband: Hahahaha, the anchor is very firm. It looks like his face colour is not very good. The anchor seems to be on Water Star. There is a big difference between the rich and the poor in that place. Are the anchor's economic situation not good?"
"Seventh Legion Super G.o.d: Give the science behind the new little cutie: The gem dragon is originally a large dragon. It is not easy to raise a thief that eats a lot and they also need to ingest a lot of precious minerals. The saying that a gem dragon in the growing period can eat a poor family is not made up. Also, the childcare centre was originally a welfare home, very poor. Mian Mian is also working very hard."
"Middle baby: That's why I like Mian Mian a lot. He often has no choice but to seek death. I hope Mian Mian can find a better path suitable for himself."
Shen Mian: "Don't call me Mian Mian, call me Dean Shen."
The barrage all collectively laughed.
Gian can't see the barrage. He has been observing the red pig and touching his head. The hardness of the gem dragon's scales can be ranked as one of the hardest among nearly 100 dragon species in the seven genera of the dragons.
Gian is confident: "I can definitely break the cage in two strikes."
Shen Mian: "Mn, amazing. You watch it and I'll go tidy some things.
A small shed was built next to the abandoned ring and a lot of debris was piled up. When Shen Mian was outside, it seems that he saw an agricultural robot. He pulled it out and looked. Sure enough, it was an old robot from more than a decade ago. It was probably bought in the early days when the childcare centre was still in a good economic situation.
Shen Mian took it to the dormitory building and was able to turn it on. It's just the energy pool to supply the energy has aged and this type of energy pool has been discontinued. After the robot is recharged, the activity time is no more than an hour, but if one pig is being raised, it's enough.
When Shen Mian was studying the robot, he has been holding the thin metal edge of the holographic gla.s.ses with his hands. He was not used to wearing gla.s.ses and was constantly worried that this thing would slip off his nose bridge. As he was focusing on two things at once, he obviously did not pay attention to the barrage. When he discovered that the barrage had been brushed into pieces and had blocked his sight, the barrage had all called him to go back quickly.
Shen Mian froze for a while, only to find that he forgot to bring his light brain. The live broadcast had been broadcasting the red pig and Gian, the barrage was so dense that he couldn't clearly see what was being said. Shen Mian thought something had happened, immediately got up and hurried back.
When he rushed to Gian, Shen Mian finally realised why the live broadcast was so fl.u.s.tered-
Due to the red pig's incessant efforts, it finally broke the cage, squeezed between the deformed bars and rushed towards Gian.
The playful little dragon cub crouched in the shed and rolled around, completely didn't notice the movement behind him due to loud noises.
The barrage has been transformed from a series of characters into various symbols and even garbled characters, mixed with the comfort of the dragon audience, but no one saw it at all.
The red pig's four hooves ran fast, and its bright fangs slammed on the strong lower limb of the gem dragon. After a click, the red pig's fangs slowly cracked and the two fang pieces dropped.
Gian blankly turned around: "Huh?"
Live Room:
"Sweet and sour spare ribs:???????"
"Seventh Legion Super G.o.d: There's no need to worry at all, them being the hardest dragon species is not a joke~."

*This part when I put it through google translate said something quite offensive, though, in Chinese, it wasn't meant to. I changed it so that it sort of makes sense without the offensive part.
**I have no idea what this sentence means. Any help is appreciated ^-^
***Lao Tzu is like a really self appreciating and fancy way of saying ‘I'.
****Face powder is a fan who only likes a celebrities face.
1: I'm pretty sure that you may or may not have seen other translators tell you about a catty, but if you haven't, a catty is a traditional Chinese unit of measurement used across East and Southeast Asia. One catty is 0.6kgs or around 1.32lbs. More info here.
2: Sand sculpture netizen. Apparently it's referring to interesting and funny people. More (all in chinese).
Heyoo!
I know the release for this novel is a bit slow but the thing is I don't like to split chapters into parts. I'll try my best to not get distracted and try to translate faster lol.
