PFC Chapter 464 Just A Wish
Chapter 464 Just A Wish
Between the leader of the scavengers and the watcher, long-distance communication is possible.
In this extremely backward small world, it is a very rare ability.
The watcher is not in the city-state, but after receiving the message from the leader of the scavengers, they express that they will immediately return.
Chen Yu stayed in the human city-state for another five days.
During this time, the leader of the scavengers naturally did their best to entertain Chen Yu.
Facing the table full of "delicious dishes," Chen Yu naturally has no appetite.
With sufficient vitality support, he doesn't need to replenish energy through food.
Eating is just a form of enjoyment and hobby for him.
Whoever wants to eat this poisonous food can eat it.
The watcher was also shocked by the large quantity of Abyss magic crystals. After returning to the city-state, they wasted no time and immediately came to meet Chen Yu.
After bringing the watcher, the leader of the scavengers and a few subordinates left the room and stood guard outside.
The watcher is a petite girl wearing a black linen robe.
Her skin has a slight purple hue, and there are several dark red cracks on her cheeks, protruding like gills.
One of her hands is covered in small, dense bumps, some of which have sharp thorns.
Other than that, she doesn't differ much from a normal human.
From a distance, her appearance is acceptable.
"Unknown strong one, thank you for your contribution to the city-state."
The watcher girl bows to Chen Yu, her expression cold.
It's not that she doesn't like Chen Yu, but rather a lack of facial expression, a condition known as facial paralysis.
Those gill-like cracks severed the connection of facial muscles, making it impossible for her to make many expressions.
"I will do my best to answer your questions."
"You are very young," Chen Yu said.
"Yes, according to the ancient way of counting time, I should be twelve now," the watcher said.
"The previous generation of watchers passed away not long ago, and I took over before I turned one year old."
"But the inheritance of the watcher is quite special, and I have already mastered enough knowledge to be a qualified watcher."
"That's good," Chen Yu nodded. "I need to ask you some questions."
"If your answers satisfy me..."
Chen Yu took out a magic crystal.
"I can give you as much of this as you want."
"If you have any other wishes, I can fulfill them too."
"You are an outsider, right?" the watcher girl suddenly asked.
"What do you mean?" Chen Yu was slightly surprised.
"You are not from this world, right?" the watcher girl looked at him with some anticipation.
"That's right," Chen Yu nodded, interested. "How did you figure it out?"
"In this world completely invaded by the Abyss, it is impossible for such a perfect human like you to be born," the watcher revealed a hint of sadness. "If we consider creatures like us as humans..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu smiled. "It seems like you know quite a bit."
"That's right, I am indeed from the outside."
"In that case..." the watcher suddenly burst with great enthusiasm and longing.
"May I request that you give me some food?"
"Food from the outside, normal food, food that hasn't been corrupted!"
"That's easy."
Chen Yu waved his hand, and a delicate huanghuali wood round table appeared out of thin air.
On the table, there was a feast of sumptuous dishes.
This is certainly not something Chen Yu carries with him, but something created on the spot using the power of creation.
With just a touch of creative energy, this ordinary food can manifest into several tons.
If it's something simpler, like rice or flour, single items like these can manifest even more.
"This is... wood?!"
The first thing to catch the attention of the Watcher Girl was not the food, but the table.
She squatted on the ground, carefully touching the legs of the wooden table, showing a look of astonishment and admiration.
"So, this is what normal, non-rotten wood looks like!"
Chen Yu smiled and said, "The table is for you, you can take it back and look at it slowly. But first, let's eat. If the food gets cold, it will lose its original flavor."
"Food!" The Watcher Girl stood up and finally saw the sumptuous feast on the table.
The beautifully prepared dishes, with their colors, aromas, and flavors, made her feel like she was in a dream. She stared at them for a while.
Then, she cautiously approached a plate, took a deep breath, and instantly became intoxicated by the wonderful sense of smell.
"Are these really food? Can I really eat them?"
"Of course, they were specially prepared for you." Chen Yu nodded.
Following her instinctive love for sweet smells, the Watcher Girl reached out for a plate of peach pastries at the edge of the table.
But when she was about to touch them, she recoiled as if being pricked by a needle.
"What are you afraid of?"
Chen Yu walked over with a smile, picked up a piece of peach pastry, and stuffed it into the Watcher Girl's mouth.
The tender, soft, and sweet taste exploded in the Watcher Girl's mouth.
She carefully savored it and only after a while did she swallow the first bite of food.
After breaking through her defenses, she suddenly became ecstatic.
She leaned over the table and ate voraciously, resembling a Taotie.
As she ate, tears streamed down her face.
"What a pitiful child."
Chen Yu sighed and rubbed her head.
Her hair was messy and rough, emitting an unpleasant odor because it hadn't been washed for a long time.
To be honest, even though the Watcher was a respected figure, her living conditions were worse than a beggar in the Blue Star world.
After a long time, the Watcher finished all the dishes on the table.
She even licked the plates clean, afraid of missing even a bit.
Her stomach was bloated, like that of a pregnant woman who had been carrying a child for ten months.
She was still just a twelve-year-old girl, without any scheming.
If she were more cunning, she would definitely not be so easily convinced by Chen Yu and expose her vulnerable side in front of him.
Powerful people, after obtaining so much food, would definitely save some for later, to be shared with their subordinates or other human powerhouses. It would be a powerful tool to win people's hearts.
"Thank you, thank you..."
The Watcher Girl knelt in front of Chen Yu, tears streaming down her face.
"Alright, it's just some food, get up."
Chen Yu helped the Watcher up and manifested a lollipop, stuffing it into her mouth.
"This is a dessert after the meal."
"Also, take a bath, change your clothes, and then we can continue talking."
Chen Yu manifested a large wooden tub filled with hot water, bathing supplies, and a beautiful little dress.
He turned and walked out, closing the door and leaving the space to the Watcher Girl.
At this moment, she needed to calm her emotions and think clearly.
Chen Yu didn't want to have a conversation with someone who couldn't speak coherently.
