281: Chapter 281: I don't need this achievement reward!

Inside the live broadcast.

An Ke snapped back to his senses and looked at the Hippopotamuses kneeling before him.

He waved his hand gently and said, "Everyone, stand up!"

"Master, they haven't sung 'Conquest' yet!" Jingang reminded him.

An Ke glared at Jingang.

On the other side, the Hippopotamus was a bit confused after hearing this.

Sing Conquest? What does that mean?

After thinking for a moment, one Hippopotamus spoke with a smile:

"Boss, we don't know what 'singing Conquest' is."

"How about we use our highest hospitality ceremony to entertain you, our distinguished guest?"

At this time, the animals from behind all came to An Ke's side.

"giaogiaogiao...!!"

As soon as Ah Giao arrived, he wouldn't stop "giao-ing."

"What on earth happened?"

"Why did the Hippopotamuses' attitude take a 180-degree turn?"

Huahua, the Golden Snub-nosed Monkey, and the other animals couldn't understand it either.

"I feel like the Hippopotamuses now are just like Aman," the Golden Snub-nosed Monkey said.

Aman turned his head and curled his lip, "Don't compare me to them."

"They are filthy all over and reek; I certainly am not like that."

Seeing Aman belittle them, the Hippopotamuses suddenly became irritable and looked fierce.

"How dare you talk about us 'all-evil' Hippopotamuses?"

"If it weren't for the sake of the Boss, we would definitely bite you into several pieces today."

"Alright, alright!" An Ke stopped the argument between the two sides.

He said, "Fine! Use your highest hospitality ceremony to entertain us then."

In the National Fortune Game, besides the Thousand Times Materialization conditions, there was also an achievement involving Hippopotamuses.

An Ke wouldn't let this reward slip away.

However, he soon regretted it...

...

"Wahahaha!"

"Since the Boss wants to see it, then we, the Hippopotamus family, will obey."

"Guys! Fall in!!"

"I hope everyone perks up!

We must give the Boss a hospitality ceremony he'll never forget!"

"That's for sure!"

"Boss, please experience the passion of our Hippopotamus family!"

"..."

Amidst the Hippopotamuses' chatter, they lined up on both sides of An Ke's group.

Then, they knelt on their knees and raised their necks.

This caused all the animals and Savages to cast curious and expectant looks.

"I have to say, it looks quite professional."

"Yeah! Even though they're filthy, there's a real sense of ceremony.

I'm looking forward to how this unfolds!"

"Hehe! I wonder if there's any fruit to eat."

"..."

While An Ke's group watched expectantly, the Hippopotamuses, with their front knees prostrate, began the most crucial step of the hospitality ceremony.

They saw their raised "pert buttocks" begin to spray "thick slurry," while their short tails acted like windshield wipers.

Splattering the "thick slurry" everywhere, which fell into the water with a "splash-splash."

"Distinguished guests, please accept the highest specification of hospitality from our Hippopotamus family."

"Seeing you makes us Hippopotamuses feel as relieved as if we were excreting..."

An Ke's pupils dilated, and his stomach churned.

Old Crocodile, Aman, Tiger Mom, Leopard Mom, Little Scar, the Golden Snub-nosed Monkey... every animal's expression was blank.

Gradually, their blank expressions turned the color of pig liver.

The Savages were dumbfounded; they really wanted to gouge out their own eyes... and then wash them.

Outside, in the live broadcast room!

"What the hell!? I want to vomit even through the screen!"

"I've already vomited once in the bathroom."

"Can death make someone lose a memory? I want to delete this image from my head."

"I probably won't be able to eat any nutrient solution for a week."

"This is the Hippopotamuses' highest specification treatment? Are you sure this isn't an insult?"

"Are they serious about what they said?"

"I'm freaking stunned!"

"Going to the bathroom to puke, anyone want to team up?"

"Look at Boss An's blank expression."

"Hahaha! I can't take it, my stomach hurts from laughing."

"Boss An: Damn! If I'd known, I'd rather not have this achievement!"

"..."

Amidst the crowd's retching, the National Fortune Game announcement sounded:

"Dragon Countrys Number One Player An Ke has completed an achievement!

Reward: 1 blue energy particle..."

...

About an hour later.

Under a waterfall one kilometer ahead.

An Ke's group was washing themselves frantically under the cascading waterfall.

"Giao! No matter how I wash, I still feel like there's a smell on me."

Ah Giao sniffed his own fur and couldn't bear to look.

"Wahhh!"

The Little Wild Leopard and Little Tiger, those two little ones, were crying from frustration.

"Big brother, big brother! Can you help me change my nose?"

"I feel like my nose is ruined!"

"No matter how I wash, the smell remains."

"The joys and sorrows between animals really can't be shared.

Everyone! You've got it good. Have you thought about Old Crocodile and my wife?"

"We have the taste in our mouths right now!!"

Old Crocodile was questioning his life.

Meanwhile, Sister-in-law Crocodile looked like she had nothing left to live for, quietly lying under the waterfall.

Letting the massive amount of water crash onto her, unmoved.

In the group, An Ke was the most comfortable.

Because he had been sitting on Aman's head the whole time, and even when they moved, he didn't fall into the water.

So the smell on him wasn't too strong.

But if he could, An Ke wanted to wash his eyes.

The so-called highest specification hospitality ceremony of the Hippopotamus herd had truly dealt a critical blow to his vision.

Whose idea of entertaining a distinguished guest is spraying sh*t?

"Sigh..."

An Ke sighed helplessly, trying hard not to let himself remember.

In any case, the achievement was completed, and the reward was obtained.

However, this reward was more like compensation for the mental trauma.

An Ke forced his thoughts away and looked at the newly obtained mission reward.

"blue energy particle?!"

"What is this?"

An Ke was very curious about this new thing.

Not just him, but the outside live broadcast room and everyone in Dragon Country were also very curious.

What's the use of this thing called "blue particle"?

An Ke looked at the "Game Panel":

["blue energy particle": Can be used to upgrade special equipment within the game.]

"Hmm?" An Ke's heart skipped a beat.

"Special equipment within the game?!"

What's that?

An Ke realized he seemed to have discovered something new.

There was some special equipment in this game.

Firearms?

An Ke remembered that he still had Firearm parts in his Portable Space.

Could it be that the blue energy particle is for upgrading these firearms?

At the moment, An Ke hadn't assembled the pistol yet.

So he couldn't test it.

His eyes darted around.

Then, he asked tentatively:

"Can I ask what special equipment is in the game?"

The National Fortune Game had answered An Ke before, so he asked with the mindset that there was no harm in trying.

But after waiting for several minutes, there was no response.

An Ke chuckled and shook his head, not trying again.

He directly threw the blue energy particle into his Portable Space.

What An Ke didn't know was that Above the Moon, a mechanical voice spoke:

"This human is testing my existence every moment!"

"As expected, humans are truly cunning!"
