A clear understanding
The next morning, Skadi woke up from a blank dream and was greeted by a very, very familiar touch.
"Can you please rest...I only slept for three hours..." She pressed his hand with a cry, followed by a panic trembling.
Xia Lan, who used magic to open the plug-in, shook her head and smiled softly: "It's okay, I won't be tired soon."
This voice sounded like a devil's whisper in her ears, making her want to run away from here.
But...she has long been unable to move her legs. Even if she is as strong as a deep-sea hunter, she still cannot retain her strength in the storm-like attack.
…
After that, the two slept until noon and woke up hungry.
"Guluulu~"
"Xia Lan...I can't walk anymore...can you bring the food back?"
"I'm tired too..."
The sequelae of long-term strenuous exercise finally appeared at this moment, but he still had no regrets, and even had some unfinished thoughts.
How many times in total... Anyway, he has already lost count.
"I'll call the hotel front desk and ask them to bring some food directly, but I'll have to wait for about half an hour." Xia Lan suggested.
"Well, you can go get it when it arrives." Skadi said, not wanting to move at all.
"Okay." Xia Lan said, suddenly lifting the quilt, which startled her, and she subconsciously wanted to grab the quilt to stop him.
But he picked her up reluctantly, got out of bed and walked towards the bathroom.
Seeing that she was unable to struggle, Skadi had no choice but to soften her body and let him put her in the bathtub.
The cold touch on her back cleared some of her strange thoughts, and she finally regained some sanity.
"Wash it yourself or should I do it for you?" he asked directly.
"I... I'll wash it myself..." Skadi covered herself with difficulty with both hands, her face full of resistance.
But after experiencing such a fierce battle, she seemed to no longer feel the same hesitation she had before?
Skadi stared at Xia Lan closely, watching him stand beside her so openly, watching him control the water to wash his whole body before leaving.
And her tense body finally relaxed, she sat up softly, turned on the faucet and started to clean her poor self.
It was already twenty minutes later when she called Xia Lan's name with a blushing face.
"Xia Lan, come here and help me!" she shouted softly.
His footsteps were heard outside, and the bathroom door opened quickly, and Xia Lan walked in after getting dressed.
He looked at Skadi, who had wet long hair. She was standing in front of the sink, leaning on her belly and looking extremely weak.
However, her waterfall-like snow-white hair covered most of her skin, and even at a glance there was nothing there.
"Haven't you recovered yet?" he asked with a smile, pinching her casually.
Skadi trembled and subconsciously begged: "I washed so hard, don't get dirty again..."
Xia Lan couldn't help but nodded: "I know, I know."
After performing the surgery, he brought a high stool from outside, helped her sit on it, and then brought her two more clothes, and then started to do her hair.
Feeling the warm and dry airflow behind her, Skadi stared at Xia Lan closely, with a faint pink face full of resentment.
"What's the matter, are you still dissatisfied with me even though I've worked so hard?" he asked playfully.
Skadi shrank his neck, and after a long time he answered hesitantly: "It's not that I'm not satisfied...it's...that the total time can be reduced a little. If the time is too long, it will be very tiring."
He tilted his head, thinking of her who could only barely speak in a vague voice in the later period, and asked curiously: "You are so physically strong, shouldn't you be able to tolerate it very well? How come you lose energy when you are faster than me?"
.”
Skadi glared at him and said with an annoyed look on his face: "Then... then I don't... my reaction is stronger than that of ordinary people, and my physical strength is also consumed faster!"
Xia Lan listened to her feeble explanation and thought about it seriously, and it seemed that it was true.
After all, she pumps for more than ten seconds at a time, and the entire muscle group moves uncontrollably, which naturally consumes a lot of physical energy.
Moreover, she lost a lot of extra water compared to him. Xia Lan even gave her two sips of water during the intermission.
On the contrary, as an output, he only needs to keep exerting force mechanically, and the physical exertion is not much more than when people on earth do this kind of thing, not to mention that his physical strength has increased too much now.
As for durability... he basically doesn't have to think about it if he has plug-ins enabled, so...
"Okay, I'll open less plug-ins next time and try to finish it as soon as possible." Xia Lan said.
But Skadi was skeptical about this because he had begun to doubt him because of his breaking the law.
Of course, there will definitely still be expectations.
She looked at herself in the mirror, who was still soft and soft, and at Xia Lan who was drying her hair. She was full of sweet aftertaste and expectation even though she was exhausted.
"Ding dong~" The doorbell of their guest room rang.
"It's probably time for lunch." Xia Lan said and walked towards the door, while Skadi continued to sit softly in front of the mirror, not wanting to move.
A few seconds after opening and closing the door, she smelled the aroma of meat in the air, and immediately shouted urgently: "Come here and help me dry my hair, Xia Lan!"
"Coming, coming~" Xia Lan walked over, flying beside him was a feathered beast that had been torn into pieces, weighing four or five kilograms.
"Here." Xia Lan continued to dry her hair while letting a piece of meat fly to her mouth.
Skadi immediately stuck his head out, bit into it, and ate it viciously, as if to vent his dissatisfaction.
Xia Lan couldn't help but start eating with a smile on her face, and when she was almost halfway through eating, she dried her hair.
He helped her tie a hair tie at the end of her hair, then used magic to get her a shirt and pants, and still helped her put them on.
Then he helped her limp body back to the living room and started to cook in earnest.
The more Skadi ate, the more energetic he became. The two of them ate for a full hour, consuming the equivalent of five ordinary people.
Those who didn’t know better thought they were playing multiplayer games in the hotel.
…
"Speaking of which, you were the one who helped me the past few days, and today it's suddenly my turn to help you, hehe." Xia Lan couldn't help but laugh while eating.
"Hmph!" Skadi snorted coldly, his face full of resentment.
Xia Lan looked at her who seemed to be quite confident, and jokingly warned: "If you hum again, I won't show mercy to you~"
"I...I was joking..." She immediately admitted her fear.
…
After dinner, the two of them sat on the sofa in the living room to eat and watch TV for a while.
About an hour later, just when Xia Lan was a little bored and wanted to sleep, Skadi stood up unsteadily, stretched tremblingly, and looked full of energy.
"Hmm~ah——"
This long gasping sound made Xia Lan perk up, and her eyes showed hope.
"We can't do it again today, otherwise... it will really break!" She refused immediately, with a serious look on her face.
Xia Lan shook her head and remained silent, which made her heart tremble.
"Then let's go, think about whether there is anything to buy, and then we can continue this journey."
Skadi was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly.
After all, they are considered "supernatural creatures". If these material debris are used for research, it will definitely cause unnecessary trouble.
Although they can't research anything at all, even Skadi is highly confident in this aspect.
After asking, he learned that this statement came from Gradia, one of the chief war designers of the Deep Sea Hunter Project.
While the two of them were purchasing supplies, Xia Lan suddenly asked: "Do you want to buy anything for shelter? After living together for a period of time, some of our bloodlines will tend to be synchronized, and maybe we will actually be able to communicate with each other by then."
Suffer ■.”
Skadi tilted his head and asked doubtfully: "Don't you remember? After becoming a deep-sea hunter with a near-immortal physique, that kind of ability..."
Xia Lan was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered this memory in the corner, and her expression suddenly dawned.
Indeed, as she said, although the deep-sea hunters basically retain their biological structure and functions, their abilities in that area are indeed turned off.
This is an "evolutionary" choice belonging to the sea monster's bloodline, which is beyond the ethics of normal creatures.
"But if you want it, it will recover, and it may start suddenly." Xia Lan said.
But Skadi still shook his head and said: "I don't like that, and I don't want to be passed down by future generations... The two of us are enough to reach the end of the universe."
"Well, that's okay." Xia Lan couldn't help but touched her head, finally letting go of her worries.
"Then I can worry about it." His words made Skadi couldn't help but punch him in the waist.
