Chapter 68: Fluffy Circus Debut!

Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Fluffy Circus Debut!

The Snow Festival was a very important holiday in the interstellar era. Although the reserve only held a one-day celebration, the festive atmosphere would actually last for about half a month.

Since Liang He and the chef had meticulously prepared a long table banquet for dinner, everyone chose to grab a quick bite for lunch, saving their appetites for the evening.

"Next, let’s enjoy the performances carefully prepared by our colleagues from various departments!"

As the district manager, Huo An gave a brief speech, and the afternoon performances officially began.

Perhaps influenced by Liang He, many colleagues had drawn inspiration from Blue Star’s entertainment culture. Comic dialogues, sketches, singing, and dancing emerged one after another. Liang He almost thought she was watching a Blue Star Spring Festival Gala.

However, the most outstanding act was surprisingly a double act by Xu Yi and Hoder. Their words were hilarious, and punchlines dropped one after another. Xu Yi, in particular, had covered his face in flour and painted on ultra-bright red lips. Just looking at him had everyone doubling over with laughter.

[I’m dying of laughter! I’ve never seen this kind of performance before. It’s so interesting!]

[I know, I know! This is a traditional Blue Star performance. The original version is even funnier, and there are comic dialogues and sketches too. They’ve only scratched the surface.]

[Holy cow, this is just scratching the surface? Then I definitely need to search for some authentic Blue Star shows. I suddenly feel like Blue Star has so many cultural treasures!]

Watching her colleagues indirectly promote Blue Star culture, Liang He curled her lips in satisfaction. Especially when she heard the CLINK CLINK of tipping money dropping into her Light Brain, her gaze toward Xu Yi and Hoder became even more amiable.

Liang He had discussed the live broadcast request with Huo An. The money earned from the stream would be used to buy holiday gifts for her colleagues to send back to their families. Because of this, the staff were more than happy to cooperate.

Most of them were ordinary citizens who stayed in the reserve almost year-round, so showing their faces wouldn’t affect their lives. By the time they took their vacations, the hype would have largely faded. Netizens wouldn’t remember their faces, only the laughter and joy they had brought.

"Alright, let’s give another round of thanks to Dr. Xu Yi and Mr. Hoder for their wonderful performance!"

The host led the audience in another enthusiastic round of applause, making Xu Yi and Hoder feel so embarrassed that they quickly slipped off the stage.

"Next up is the highly anticipated debut of the Furry Circus! Please welcome them with a round of applause!"

It went without saying that these top-tier bigshots would be the grand finale, even for a simple performance. The netizens had long been unable to wait, nearly crashing the live broadcast servers that the Information Security Department had painstakingly maintained.

[Ahhh! Is it finally time for the furries to perform? I’ve been waiting since the very beginning! Though the previous acts were pretty good too.]

[If you ask me, the bigshots are going all out and throwing caution to the wind just to vie for the Breeder’s favor. This is a live broadcast, after all!]

[I don’t care, I’m a die-hard fan of the Fur Raising Officer from now on! Just so I can see ** and *** fighting for favor, maybe even turning against each other! This is way more exciting than a novel!]

As the top Beastmen in the interstellar era, whether it was the Federation Marshal, the Battlefield Commander, or the Imperial Admiral, they were all akin to Heavenly God War Gods in the eyes of the netizens. Yet they had been pulled down from their pedestals, condescending to perform just to make a certain someone laugh. This intense contrast absolutely sent the shipping fans into a frenzy!

"MEOW!"

The first to appear was the Mengji Snow Leopard. With an elegant and muscular body, he strutted onto the stage with an arrogant catwalk. At this moment, a horizontal bar had just been set up on the stage.

"Is Kuang Ye going to play on the horizontal bar?"

Sitting next to Liang He, Huo An curiously tried to fish for spoilers, but Liang He simply smiled and politely declined to answer.

The crowd watched as the Mengji Snow Leopard stood by the bar, stretching his body lazily and elegantly. He rolled his ankles like a human and sharpened his claws before staring intently at the bar and making an effortless leap.

[Wow! Is this the legendary catwalk? To think the Mengji Snow Leopard can walk so steadily on such a narrow surface!]

[Good heavens, that bar looks to be over two meters high, and the Mengji Snow Leopard hopped up there with ease. That’s just too cool!]

[He can even pivot on one foot?! If he’s that amazing, why doesn’t he just dance on the bar?!]

Following the netizens’ expectations, the Mengji Snow Leopard actually began to twirl and leap on the horizontal bar. His light, agile body pushed the routine to its absolute limit. The performance only ended when he flipped off the bar and struck an ultra-cool ending pose.

Deafening, thunderous applause instantly erupted from the audience, proving just how successful the Mengji Snow Leopard’s performance was, while simultaneously making everyone even more eager for the upcoming animal acts.

"MEOW~"

"Leopard is truly amazing! Thumbs up for you!"

Having finally finished his performance, the Mengji Snow Leopard immediately dashed over to Liang He to claim his credit. Liang He quickly handed him a bowl of warm water so he could rehydrate.

After the Mengji Snow Leopard finished drinking, Liang He thoughtfully arranged a prepared afternoon tea on a soft picnic mat laid out nearby, allowing him to comfortably enjoy his meal.

As the staff cleared the horizontal bar from the stage, the next to appear was the Iron-eating Beast. Although his foot injury had only recently healed, he was already extremely adept at spinning balls.

[Is this the Blue Star’s special Iron-eating Beast? He’s so cute! Why don’t the photos capture even a tenth of his cuteness?!]

[Haha, the panda is actually black and white. I thought the Breeder had uncharacteristically used a filter before.]

[Oh my god, he’s incredibly adorable when he flops onto his back with all four paws in the air! He looks so soft just sitting there. I’m so jealous that the Breeder gets to pet him every day!]

The Iron-eating Beast skillfully lifted the large ball, supporting it with his hind legs while his forelimbs began to spin it, the speed steadily increasing.

"I have to admit, the balls you bought from Blue Star are of really good quality. Otherwise, Xuan Jiao would have ruined them long ago."

It wasn’t just the balls; most of the products they had purchased were of premium quality and highly durable. Xu Yi, having finally washed the flour off his face, sat looking refreshed in the empty seat next to Liang He and began to critique the Iron-eating Beast’s performance.

"This little guy’s legs are seriously agile. Don’t they get tangled up? He’s moving so fast!"

This wasn’t Xu Yi’s first time watching the Iron-eating Beast spin a ball, but his technique was clearly much more advanced this time. He even started doing trick spins!

"What is he doing now?"

They saw the Iron-eating Beast set down the large ball and sit obediently on the stage. Then, from a basket already placed on the ground, he pulled out three bear-paw-sized balls and started juggling.

[Whoa! His juggling skills are way better than mine! How does he do that?!]

[Three balls, tossed up one after another, and not a single one drops. That’s incredible!]

[It’s over for me. I just tried it, and it’s seriously hard. I actually can’t compete with an Iron-eating Beast!]

Not being able to compete was perfectly normal. Xuan Jiao was having more and more fun, completely oblivious to the fact that he was putting on a performance. In the end, he even walked off the stage while juggling, only stopping when he returned to Liang He’s side.

"MHM~"

"Jiao Jiao is so awesome! I like you so much!"

With another furry friend coming to claim credit, Liang He naturally wouldn’t treat him any differently. Going through the same routine, she comforted the Iron-eating Beast until he was perfectly content.

"SCREECH!"

The surprises kept coming one after another. Next to appear was the Canglan Hunting Eagle. Having waited in a large tree for a long time, he descended from the sky. Spiraling down from high above, he dove fiercely toward the audience, landing smoothly on the stage amidst their gasps of awe.

[Yes, yes, yes! *** captured my heart the moment he appeared! How could there be such a handsome and cool entrance!]

[I’m so jealous of the live audience who gets to experience the oppressive presence of the Canglan Hunting Eagle in person. I want to snuggle with *** too!]

[Upstairs, snuggling is your real goal, isn’t it? Haha! Unfortunately, the Canglan Hunting Eagle only has eyes for the Breeder~]

The Canglan Hunting Eagle’s performance was very simple, but it required someone to cooperate with him. Naturally, this person had to be Liang He.

"Next, please welcome the most beloved Fur Raising Officer—Liang He, to the stage!"
