Chapter 69: Chapter 61: The New Night Banquet
Yudula directly helped to pay the money.
Clearly a future Ant Queen Lord, she should be more respected and have a higher status than the Wandering Angel Knight, yet the knights nearby showed a strange look, even faintly nauseated.
Yudula was accustomed to people’s disgusted expressions.
She had come here several times to recruit knights, but no one was willing to follow her, even finding it nauseating.
This situation is like suddenly having a deformed child appear among humans.
No skin, just vibrant red muscular textures, like a flayed human halfway through dissection. Not to mention outsiders, even she finds it nauseating!
After all, the aesthetic of this world is based on the beauty of sleek armor body shapes.
Even if she covered herself with armor, in normal aesthetic values, she is equivalent to a mutant skinless monster with vibrant red muscles, wearing a sheet of white human skin, joints still exposing the vibrant red muscle underneath.
This scene would undoubtedly be bizarre and unsettling.
Yudula said, "Please let me take you over."
"Walking is too slow, can I take you over?"
Fu Qingjun didn’t mind much, these armored Angels appeared handsome to him like humanoid armored warriors, but without armor, they are just ordinary people...
Yudula appeared somewhat delighted and seriously spoke, "I grew up without ever experiencing the feeling of flying in the sky.... if you don’t mind how hideous I look."
Normal creatures even find it nauseating to get close to her.
"It doesn’t matter; the many creatures on this earth come in all shapes and sizes." He lifted her by the waist, extending huge snow-white wings, soaring into the sky.
Bang!
Snow-white feathers flapping, they swiftly soared into the sky.
Holding a creature wrapped in black form-fitting armor, looking beautiful, Fu Qingjun had little other thoughts.
After all, he had marinated such ants in alcohol countless times...
Fu Qingjun looked at this Ant Queen and said, "Your body is very peculiar, born without armor, perhaps it’s a kind of illness, if you’d like, I can check your body."
"It’s very disgusting." Yudula said directly.
She showed her instinctual revulsion to herself, "I was born without a shell, unable to stand upright, and without it, I’m a lump of shimmering soft body, lying quietly on the ground."
This Ant Queen hasn’t evolved a spine and internal skeleton?
Fu Qingjun wasn’t surprised.
Fu Qingjun imagined the scene, without bones, like a soft octopus-like girl unable to support her body, lying on the ground.
Creatures are divided into external skeleton and internal skeleton animals.
Ants are external skeleton shell animals, humans are internal skeleton vertebrate animals.
Unfortunately, this mutated Ant Queen species not only shed its shell but also didn’t grow human bones internally... thus becoming a soft-bodied creature.
Indeed, it is an innate deformed fetus.
"Why speak of these?" Fu Qingjun suddenly asked, feeling this should be very private, like an act of uncovering scars directly, and should be not dared to be spoken to outsiders.
"Because you are the first one to see me without showing any disgust, no creature even wants to get near me, to touch me... even my mother sitting on the throne said I am a low-quality product! My birth is the greatest insult in her glorious life."
She very seriously said, "I lean towards the weak mutation of Ant Queens and fear soon I will be eliminated."
On this land, at this moment, deliberately mass mating, creating mutations, leads to an extensive variety of species differentiation.
No matter what deformed mutation, they all cultivate to a certain extent, even those considered weak mutations.
After all, some acknowledged weak mutations in Ant Queens that were thought to have very low combat power and yet grew up to develop their own troop, directly ruling a kingdom.
"Why don’t you think that although you appear as a weak mutation, once grown, you might be very strong?" Fu Qingjun flapped his snow-white wings and spoke.
"How could it be?" Yudula shook her head saying.
She once hoped she had a chance, but alas, there is no hope.
Standing requires a fixed external skeleton armor; walking a few steps pressures every muscle, creating marks, how could she rise?
"Makes sense." Fu Qingjun pondered.
"Right?" Yudula said with a bitter smile.
In lacking skin, originally in her own eyes, a kind of optimized mutation and branch route.
But sadly, this ant without skin cannot stand...
If truly seeking skinless human species, perhaps finding a mutated Ant Queen with internal human vertebral bones and shedding the external skeleton skin comes faster.
"Do you know any Ant Queen with internal bones?" Fu Qingjun asked.
Creatures on this land madly spawning troops, taking mutation paths, should also include life inheriting internal skeletal structures of mutations, shouldn’t they?
"Yes, just the hot topic, Ismael!"
Yudula said, "She has both an external skeleton and internal bones.... elbow mutations have spikes, known as the spike-bone vein of the Young Emperor.... maybe she is the hope for our wingless human race, reportedly many Grandmaster strong protect her in secret."
Fu Qingjun pondered, thinking:
"It seems these experimental bodies will thoroughly study themselves!"
"Continuously experimenting on themselves; eventually they will also appear in a human lineage without armor... I overthink, no need to consider for them, they think even more than I do."
It’s better to keep busy with plant matters.
Initially, his interest in this skinless creature had faded... It was different from what he expected. Without a skeleton, just a soft shell, there wasn’t much to study.
Suddenly, intense battle sounds came from afar.
"How dare you attack the Young Emperor!" A stern shout echoed.
"Where do you come from, treacherous slayer, to end the hope of our human tribe!"
"Protect the Young Emperor!"
Countless people roared lowly.
In the distance, at the plaza that had just flown away, appeared a massive aura. Countless people roared, and dozens of Grandmasters directly took action, with their energy intertwining, engaging in intense combat.
Fu Qingjun turned his head to look.
"The other four tribes suppress the world... Our human tribe also eagerly hopes for the emergence of a fifth tribe to rival them! Ismael is said to be one of those hopes! It must not be lost!" Yudula showed a look of envy, "But the other tribes will not let her grow unscathed. From childhood to adulthood, this future Emperor has always grown up amidst assassination attempts."
"Born great, it is destined," she said.
"Born great?"
Fu Qingjun smiled, not refuting these downbeat words, and continued flying forward, saying:
"Yes, this is the world of bloodshed. The wingless human tribe is meant to write the ode of the future. Your appearance, as deformities, is to sift out the ruler..."
Fu Qingjun continued flying, eventually arriving at the destination.
A similarly incomparably prosperous and bustling gigantic medieval-style town.
Fu Qingjun descended in front of a Mage Tower, where countless Sage professions were researching mechanics, medicine, exploring the world’s mysteries, and pursuing great truths.
With her, Fu Qingjun moved forward and directly said, "So what is your goal in seeking me out?"
"Hope."
Yudula calmly said, "I want to survive. Offspring that do not meet the standard will be completely cut off from resources once they reach adulthood... At that time, I can only produce a batch of boneless, skinless soldiers crawling on the ground, and that would be a dead end for me. So I want to try to grab hold of hope."
Fu Qingjun said, "So, you want to become my vassal?"
"Yes."
Yudula said, "I want to follow you, willing to do anything for you, great Angel."
On this land, it has always been the masterless Wandering Knights that follow the Lady Empress, and now an Ant Queen following a Wandering Knight might be unprecedented.
Fu Qingjun hesitated a bit.
Initially, his interest in her was to witness the emergence of a true human, but now, it’s clear that her direction is incorrect, and it’s uncertain what research value she still holds.
Boneless...
Soft-bodied animals...
Fu Qingjun suddenly had a bold idea. If the human path is not viable, perhaps she could take the route of a complete alien beast, integrating new genetic structures from other creatures...
Fu Qingjun calculated the time.
During the day, he had a meeting with Qin Hong and some brothers, returned home at dusk, wandered here for a bit, researched the time...
It’s almost past eight now.
Qin Hong needs to enter the Divine Demon Night Banquet too.
The first night she returns to the Divine Demon Night Banquet, he hadn’t prepared anything, but now...
He had a bold idea.
"If you wish to follow me, you can, but you must forge an ancient contract and become my subordinate." Fu Qingjun suddenly showed an eerie smile.
"Subordinate? Not in a general sense?" Yudula was puzzled.
Fu Qingjun’s voice was full of enchantment, saying, "Do you want to change your life? I have a way, but it is a gamble. It might lead to death, or it might lead to rebirth."
"What kind of rebirth?"
"A life greater than Ismael."
"I am willing," she said calmly, "We have nothing left to lose."
Fu Qingjun whispered in her ear, "Then, we won’t rush to find the Mage Tower. Let’s find a room to stay first."
Soon, they arrived in this city and found a room to enter.
Fu Qingjun, with a calm expression, immediately grasped Yudula’s soul, entering a dark tunnel, passing through countless lights, they arrived in a prehistoric wasteland world.
Rustle.
On the other side, Qin Hong entered, looking at everything around, thinking, "Divine Demon Night Banquet, I wonder what will happen this time..."
Dependent: One Life (0/1000)
Authority: None
Permission: Communicate with the earthly body, hold an independent night banquet
"This is!??" she suddenly felt a shock in her heart, watching a blurry figure approaching, accompanied by a human soul looking around curiously.
