65: Chapter 65 A Whole Pig Feast, Eating with Mouths Full of Oil

12:00 PM, the temporary cafeteria of the Yunding No. 1 Public Kindergarten.

In reality, it was just a few simple tables set up in the open air, with a camouflage netting stretched overhead for shade.

The air was filled with a rich, thick aroma of meat that simply wouldn't dissipate.

That unlucky F-rank Iron-Backed Porcupine had now been transformed into various hearty dishes on the table.

Braised pork belly, steamed pork ribs with rice flour, soy-braised bones, and that large bowl of steaming pig brains specifically requested by the eldest.

The one in charge of cooking was Chef Li, a top-tier chef specially left behind by Captain Li of the infrastructure team.

At this moment, Chef Li, wearing an apron, was watching the three children devouring the food with a look of shock.

"This... this, this..." The soup ladle in Chef Li's hand was shaking.

"This is beast meat! The energy density is dozens of times higher than ordinary beef! A normal adult would get a nosebleed from just eating a pound, but these three little ancestors... how much have they eaten?"

Su Qianqian calmly pushed the empty plate in front of her. "Don't make such a fuss. According to my calculations, the total energy of this pig is approximately 10 million calories."

"These three children are currently in a period of high-burst Awakening for their abilities. Their basal metabolic rates are much higher than normal people. Once this energy is converted, it's barely enough to maintain their daily consumption."

Su Qianqian casually fabricated a term that sounded very scientific, quietly covering up the shocking truth of the Ancient Sacred Body and the Elemental Body.

In front of outsiders, one should not flaunt their wealth or their true capabilities; this was a basic principle.

Sure enough, upon hearing this professional academic explanation, Chef Li nodded in awe, though he didn't quite understand. "So that's how it is... The children of ability users are indeed different."

At the table, the eldest, Wang Zhentian, held a braised pork trotter in his left hand and a large spoon to scoop brains in his right, eating until his mouth was oily, even chewing the bones to pieces and swallowing them.

"Delicious! So fragrant! It's just a bit stuck in my teeth!"

The Second, The Second, was more particular. He disliked that the food cooled down quickly, so every time he picked up a piece of meat, he used the small flame in his mouth to reheat it, making himself look like a fire-breathing performance artist.

"Chef Li, put more chili next time! This porcupine meat is on the cold side; we need to suppress it with spice!"

The Third, The Third, had the most refined table manners, but her speed was not slow at all.

She held a delicate little knife and fork, precisely cutting the tenderest part of the meat with every bite and elegantly placing it into her mouth. Although she didn't speak, the frequency of her eating was like a precision machine.

Sitting at the head of the table, Wang Dachui looked at these three gluttons, feeling wonderful inside.

Eat, eat more. What you are eating is meat, but what I am gaining is stats!

However, Nalan Ruo, who was sitting opposite him, only drank a bowl of light vegetable porridge. Looking at the greasy table, she frowned slightly.

Her complexion was even paler than when she was teaching in the morning, and a layer of fine cold sweat even seeped from her forehead.

Her right hand was subconsciously pressing against the area below her chest, seemingly enduring some kind of pain.

"What's wrong? Sister Nalan?" Wang Dachui was gnawing on a bone when he noticed Nalan Ruo's condition was off. He frowned slightly and silently recited in his heart: "Eye of Insight, activate!"

Instantly, a subtle glimmer flashed across his eyes.

In the vision of the [Eye of Insight], Nalan Ruo's physical condition was clear at a glance.

Within the green light that originally represented vitality, a dense mass of black energy was coiled near the Feishu Acupoint on her chest. It was like a stubborn piece of ice, tightly blocking the flow of energy and even continuously devouring the surrounding vitality.

"It's nothing..." Nalan Ruo forced a smile. "Maybe it's because I just recovered. I used some abilities while teaching today, and my body is a bit overloaded. It's an old ailment; I'll be fine after a rest."

"An old ailment? I don't think it's that simple." Wang Dachui put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and his expression became serious.

"Cold poison has entered your marrow, and your Meridians are blocked. If you keep dragging this out, not to mention recovering your strength, you might even lose your abilities."

Nalan Ruo was startled and looked at him in surprise: "How did you know?"

"Don't worry about how I know." Wang Dachui stood up. "Come to the room with me, I'll help you treat it."

As soon as these words were spoken, the lively table instantly fell silent.

The eldest, who was chewing on a trotter, stopped, the flame sprayed by The Second wavered, and The Third even raised her head, her gaze scanning back and forth between her father and Nalan Ruo.

"Entering a room?" General Leng Feng, who hadn't spoken, was playing with a dinner knife. Upon hearing this, she raised an eyebrow and looked at Wang Dachui with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

"In broad daylight, a man and a woman going into a room for treatment? Husband, when did you learn medicine? How come I don't know about it?"

Su Qianqian also added a jab: "According to data analysis, 99.8% of the motives for males to invite females into a bedroom under the guise of medical treatment are impure. Dachui, do you need me to provide high-voltage electric shock therapy as an aid?"

"Go, go, go! What are you thinking about!" Wang Dachui looked righteous. "Am I that kind of person? I just feel bad seeing Sister Nalan work so hard for our family!"

"Besides, to create a martial arts training plan for these three little brats over these past few days, I stayed up late to cram the 'Human Meridian Map' and 'Detailed Explanation of Acupoints'! Although I haven't practiced it, my theoretical knowledge is perfect!"

After speaking, he looked at Nalan Ruo: "Sister Nalan, believe me when I say this. I have a set of... *ahem*, unique massage techniques specifically for unblocking Meridians."

Nalan Ruo looked at Wang Dachui, whose appearance was slightly unserious but whose eyes were clear. Feeling the increasingly intense pain in her body, she finally gritted her teeth.

"Fine, I'll trust you once." She stood up and nodded to General Leng Feng and Su Qianqian. "I'll be right back."

Five minutes later, in Nalan Ruo's temporary bedroom.

The door closed, and the narrow space instantly fell into a subtle silence.

"Um... let's start."

"Yeah, just take off your jacket and lie on the bed." Wang Dachui turned his back, pretending to organize the towel on the nightstand, while actually trying desperately to calm his accelerating heartbeat.

Although he was already a father of three, facing a goddess of the ascetic type at Nalan Ruo's level, it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

And the most critical thing was—he actually had no idea what he was doing!

It was all relying on the miracle of brute force and that little flame of The Second!

Nalan Ruo stood by the bed, her fingers pinching the zipper of her jacket. The female war god, who was always decisive, now showed a level of awkwardness and shyness she had never displayed before.

After all, undressing in front of a man she had only known for a few days, even for the sake of medical treatment, was a huge psychological challenge for her.

Behind him came the rustling sound of fabric rubbing. A moment later, Nalan Ruo's low voice sounded: "O-okay, it's done."

Wang Dachui turned around. At that moment, he, who had been silently chanting "I am a doctor, I am a doctor" in his heart, had his gaze freeze instantly.

Even through the thin undershirt, one could see her perfect back lines, tight and smooth, full of a charm that combined strength and softness.

The exposed skin was fair and delicate, glowing with a healthy luster under the light, and not a single flaw could be found.

How could this look like the back of a battle-hardened warrior? It was simply a work of art of exquisite beauty.

Wang Dachui's gaze instantly intensified, and his Adam's apple bobbed subconsciously.

This woman, she was hiding quite a lot.
