Chapter 253: Not Full

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

How Lu Xiaoyu entered the remains still required continued observation. At the same time, Lu Shu pondered another question: If Lu Xiaoyu entered the remains, she might be the only child left inside. Even if Lu Xiaoyu was wearing the celestial cloak, the features might be too obvious.

There was a stark difference between the physique of a child and an adult. If the entire camp only comprised a child who was 1.5 meters tall, wouldn’t it be deceiving for Lu Xiaoyu to put on the celestial cloak to hide her identity from everyone…

Recently, Lu Xiaoyu’s growth had been remarkable after keeping with her nutritional needs. Although Lu Xiaoyu had always been watching her diet, there was a stark contrast between having the monetary means and the lack of it. In the past, it meant having one to two eggs daily, with the addition of meat occasionally.

What about now? Every lunch, Li Xianyi fed Lu Xiaoyu as though she was her granddaughter. The chairman of the foundation also doted on her as she was given any and every good food available.

Lu Shu’s 300 dollars lunch allowance was definitely not enough. He initially wanted to fork out more money, but Li Xianyi rejected it. She did not want Lu She to fork out any money and even claimed that the lunch was prepared for Lu Xiaoyu and it was none of Lu Shu’s business.

At dinner, Lu Xiaoyu was guaranteed meat at every meal.

After coming out from their tent, Lu Xiaoyu followed Lu Shu to collect their plates from the food truck. She honestly queued behind Lu Shu, and it finally came to her turn, the duty chef exclaimed in astonishment, “There’s such a beautiful girl at the campsite? I will give you special welfare for whatever you want to eat!”

Lu Xiaoyu passed her plate forward, “Give me a plate of Braised Beef Brisket. Only Beef Brisket!”

Lu Shu was so glad at that moment. When he turned around, he saw Jiang Shuyi coming out after packing things up, following behind her were Chen Zuan and Gao Shenyin.

At this point, the campsite remained empty. There were only that one thousand few Daoyuan class students from Xijing Town at the campsite, the rest of the students from Qingzhou province had yet to arrive.

Lu Shu whispered to Jiang Shuyi who was by his side, “Why do I feel that the campsite is so deep, aren’t we afraid that we may face the last situation, what if we get rolled in again?”

“Rolled in… it’s just rolling in,” Jiang Shuyi looked at Lu Shu with a strange look, “They’re all soldiers now, even if they’re not rolled in, they still have to go in.”

Lu Shu had a sudden realization. Indeed, the Daoyuan class students’ identities had changed. They were now soldiers who drew a salary and should be equipped with responsibility. They were no longer ordinary students, they were a part of the country’s machinery.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Network was bent on training their soldier. These greenhouse flowers could never be weathered.

It was an era of peace. Since Earth did not have opportunities for military training, they could only go to the remains. Lu Shu initially thought that the Heavenly Network was harsh, but on second thought, he found it logical.

On the evening before, there was a disaster brought by some awakened people in Mid-Africa. They have been paid by independent personnel with a hefty sum to participate in war.

Ever since the early commercialization of the awakened people in Europe and America (Euramerica), someone finally lifted the awakened person and directed them like a knife to the commoners. Following that, some awakened people who were originally active in the commercial field began to fade out of the scene, leaving only a few people to continue shining in commerce.

As for the whereabouts of those awakened people who gradually faded out of sight, no one knew.

Lu Shu felt a sense of danger over these matters. Someone once said that war was to attain peace, but Lu Shu thought otherwise. If war were to attain peace, then what’s a logical explanation for the original war which happened due to an outbreak of peace.

He felt that war was a continuity of politics. The main reason behind a war was the pursuit of interests. In this context, the use of a mesmerizing word to explain war could hardly hide its toxicity.

War would involve the death of people.

Back then, everyone simply squatted to consume their food. At present, there were beyond 10 foldable tables available for use. The rest of the students had already finished their meals, with only a few of them eating alone.

Lu Shu initially thought that Lu Xiaoyu had a huge appetite, but he realized that Chen Zuan had already finished 3 meal portions when he had yet to finish one. Just then, Chen Zuan was about to stand up to get his fourth portion.

Lu Shu, looking complicated, said, “Chen Zuan, do you know that students nowadays are always idling, thinking of getting into a relationship, or something…”

Chen Zuan was momentarily stunned, how could getting into relationship be associated with idleness. Without thinking meticulously, Lu Shu continued, “you’re the outstanding one…”

“How am I outstanding?” Chen Zuan was stunned again as he did not understand Lu Shu’s train of thoughts.

“While others are idling and wanting to get into a relationship, you can’t even get full…”

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +233!”

“It’s not that I’m not full…” Chen Zuan boringly explained, “you’ll understand in the future.”

Chen Zuan went to get his food after finishing his statement. Lu Shu was now stunned. From Chen Zuan’s meaning, was he acquiring supernatural prowess from eating?

He then turned around to see Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Xiongxu looking at Chen Zuan with admiration… he really admired those that were not full with the amount of food they ate. Lu Xiaoyu felt that she could eat out the entire army’s food reserves.

Gao Shenyin was also preparing to get more food initially since eating one to two meal portions was no big deal for people of his age. It was even less of a big deal for physique focused Gao Shenyin.

Disciples of the Heavenly Network were only required to add 900 pounds of strength at Class F, but Gao Shenyin and fellow students found out that with the addition of their training, this clearance level still had rooms for improvement. They were willing to train so long as there was an increment, it didn’t matter if it was an increment of 10 or 20 pounds.

Hearing the words from Lu Shu, Gao Shenyin was stunned when he was about to get more food… he was hesitating whether to continue eating…

“Go ahead go ahead, make yourself comfortable,” Lu Shu smiled at Gao Shenyin.

When Chen Zuan and Gao Shenyin left, Jiang Shuyi took the opportunity and asked curiously, “You’ve been staring at both of their wrist and neck, are you thinking of earning a sum in the remains just like the last occasion?”

“That’s of course, you people are not concerned with these matters since you do not lack money. However, it is different for me. I have to support my family.” Lu She smiled as he was not embarrassed at all. Life was life, there would be no meaning to it for going beyond one’s ability.

How did you repay a favor when others treat you to a meal and alcohol which cost tens of thousands?

Why trap yourself just because of a lack of pride?

“Those who are poor can only sit by the roadside when they are sad, eat a few BBQ meat sticks and drink some beer before crying softly,” Lu She smiled, “As for the rich, they can cry in springs, cry at Jiuzai Valley, cry on the plane, cry on the yacht, they can cry however they want to…”
