Chapter 42: The Child Is Still Growing
“Is that what your brain is always thinking about?”
Lu Ming sighed.
“There is no other option,” Zhang Xiaopang said shyly, “I am young and energetic and full of vigor.”
Lu Ming: “Hehe.”
Those few words had nothing to do with you.
“I am talking about abilities.
It is best that it is a Summoner or another related profession who can summon fish.” Lu Ming said.
The Game Card that he wanted to create this time would be more complex. It required some preparatory work. Of course, if it was successful, the benefits would be impressive.
“Do you want to create a new card?”
Zhang Xiaopang’s eyes lit up.
He remembered how sensational it was when Lu Ming created the first card.
“Yes,” Lu Ming confirmed.
“Can I join?”
Zhang Xiaopang was excited.
“Of course.”
Lu Ming smiled. “But the illusion will only take up a small part. You can come over after you completed your advanced studies. If you want to join, hurry and get me the person that I want.”
“No problem.”
Zhang Xiaopang patted his chest. “I will find you one right now.”
Upon finishing his sentence…
He hung up the phone immediately. Lu Ming was between laughter and tears. When it came to money, this guy was very efficient.
Three minutes later.
Zhang Xiaopang made a call back.
“Brother Lu, it’s done.”
Zhang Xiaopang was full of confidence.
“Have you found him?”
Lu Ming was shocked.
“Well, it’s the third oldest brother of my friend. He is a professional Summoner who summons fish. I have asked him and he is free right now. Shall we take a look now?”
Zhang Xiaopang took up the position of the assistant naturally.
“Okay,” Lu Ming agreed.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
He could hear faint penning sounds beside him.
Lu Ming turned to see that Xiaobai was working hard at creating the cards. Since when was there a stack of Energy Cards next to her!
Sigh?
Wait a minute…
Energy Card?
Lu Ming rubbed his head.
These days, he had been studying techniques. He had no time to check on Xiaobai’s learning progress. However, as far as he knew, Little Lu Ming spent a few months before he learned how to create an Energy Card?!
Furthermore, he gave Xiaobai the task of creating the optimized lines that were of a higher difficulty!
And she had already finished them?!
“When did you learn these lines?”
Lu Ming was surprised.
“I learned them on the first day,” Xiaobai replied earnestly. “It is very simple.”
Fortunately, he did not show off to the little girl that day.
Seriously.
He was no longer proud of himself. He had an elder sister who was formidable and now there was Xiaobai who overtook him naturally. There was no place for him!
Hahahaha.
The damn talent!
“Work hard on learning the lines first,” Lu Ming thought before saying. “After you master this, I will teach you new things.”
“Okay.”
Xiaobai nodded.
“I will go out for a moment. You will stay in the shop. I have switched on the surveillance camera. If there’s anything, remember to call the police.”
Lu Ming told her.
“Okay, Master.”
Xiaobai was very obedient and sensible.
After giving his orders, Lu Ming left the shop.
He met Zhang Xiaopang.
However…
When Lu Ming reached his destination half an hour later, his face turned green when he saw the scene in front of him. He finally knew why the “third oldest brother” had time now!
This…
Was…
The so called…
Professional in summoning fish and related creatures?
“Look!”
The third oldest brother explained enthusiastically.
Shush!
The energy surged in his hands and a fish appeared. He looked serious as he used an iron stick to poke through the fish and hang it on the shelf right in front of them. “This fish has a high nutritional value. It is flavorful and it takes a short time to grill, making it suitable for barbecues.”
Whoosh!
The energy surged in his hands and another fish appeared.
“As for this fish, its meat is tender, but it will not be as tasty when grilled or stir-fried. Therefore, it is more suitable for steaming…”
Whoosh!
Another fish appeared.
“This fish…”
He continued on and on.
He even flipped the fish that was grilling.
Damn, he was someone who dealt with fish!
Was this the Summoner of fish that Zhang Xiaopang was talking about?
Yes. That was right. The third oldest brother of the friend was a boss at the barbecue shop! He would set up his shop to sell barbecued food whenever it was meal time!
“Let me check.”
Zhang Xiaopang was furious as well, he went to check with his friend.
Moments later.
He was back.
The person right in front of him was indeed a Summoner.
There was once when he went outdoors on an adventure and he was hungry. He barbecued the fish that he summoned. An idea came to him and he quit school to join the food industry, creating his brand of barbecued fish.
“What can this be used for?”
Zhang Xiaopang was helpless as well.
“What do you say?”
Lu Ming sneered.
Can you throw food while in a fight?
It was crazy!
However…
It was just nice that Lu Ming could answer some of his doubts.
“Is the price of the fish related to the energy consumption?”
Lu Ming pointed to the price board.
Grilled small yellow croaker—Fifty yuan.
Grilled big snakehead fish—Eighty yuan.
Grilled red carp—Ninety-eight yuan.
Grilled green carp—Ninety-nine yuan.
“Of course.”
The third oldest brother smiled, not forgetting to flip the fish and to sprinkle some cumin. “The more expensive the fish, the more energy is required to summon it.”
“Is the energy consumption fixed?”
Lu Ming was curious.
“Generally yes.”
The third oldest brother felt embarrassed. “There are those who can summon anything irregardless of the energy. But I am not at that level. I am afraid that I can’t help you.”
“Thank you.”
Lu Ming was thankful.
It was good that he was willing to help him to answer his questions.
It was just that he was left with no other choice for the Game card. In the end, he could only make do with Fish Leap. Although the effect would be weaker, it was still feasible.
“If you’re grateful, do buy a grilled fish.”
The third oldest brother was shy. “It’s very tasty.”
He was indeed a businessman!
“Brother Lu, my reward…”
Zhang Xiaopang came up to him unabashedly.
“Scram!”
Lu Ming felt angry at the sight of him. “Didn’t you promise that you will provide free service last time?”
Last time?
Zhang Xiaopang suddenly remembered what happened at the tent and felt dejected.
Damn it, he had forgotten about that!
“However… ”
Lu Ming thought about it. “Can you do something for me tomorrow? I will give you some money as well as a small gift.”
“Seriously?”
Zhang Xiaopang’s eyes lit up.
“Of course.”
Lu Ming gave him a brief introduction about what he needed to do tomorrow. Zhang Xiaopang agreed to it without hesitation.
“I will go back to study.
I will finish my homework today so that I can make some time tomorrow.”
Zhang Xiaopang felt energetic at the mention of money.
“Sure.”
After saying goodbye to him, Lu Ming went back as well.
Oh, by the way he had a grilled fish in his hands.
The third oldest brother was too warm, Lu Ming could not reject him and bought a grilled fish from him. Although it was being summoned, it was quite delicious.
“I will bring it back for Xiaobai to try.”
That was what Lu Ming had in mind.
However, the journey back was quite far. By the time he reached, he had finished the grilled fish.
“Well…”
Lu Ming thought for a moment and felt at ease. “The child is still growing. Grilled fish is too oily, it’s better not to have too many of them.”
PS: Guess what the second card was?
