Chapter 1246 - 1243: Intensity

"Everyone in the Daiying Federation is a Furry Fan? What kind of outrageous thing did those rebels across the way do?"

Ansheng showed a strange expression, looking towards the enthusiastic Ah Qing and asked:

"If we're really talking about Furry Fans, aren't the most authoritative ones in Australia? After all, they often can pull spiders the size of a fist or inland taipan snakes out of their toilets as soon as they finish talking."

It's normal to have many foreign Furry Fans, but if we're discussing authority, Ansheng feels it's got to be Australia.

Looking around the world, the only one that often gets suppressed by wild animals and has its army defeated by them is Australia.

"Uh... the army suppressed by wild animals?" Ah Qing was taken aback, expressing surprise with a big question mark.

"Are we talking about the same thing with Furry Fans? Why does it feel like the cases you're mentioning are all about wild animals chasing people down and catching them for a beating?"

Ah Qing searched on her phone and actually found what the Little Fox was talking about — the "Emu War," where four people, two machine guns, and ten thousand rounds of ammunition only managed to wipe out around nine hundred emus over a month, with Australia suffering a defeat.

Following that, emus continued to be a scourge, wreaking havoc on local crops.

Forced with no options, Australia had to put up a bounty system to barely suppress the emus.

"Well, you know..." Ansheng shrugged, nothing furry coming out from the Daiying Federation should be a surprise.

"The country's leadership... can all transform into beastmen, even their queen is fluffy!"

Ah Qing, full of curiosity, remarked about the events that transpired after the Little Fox left the villa for the Fox Immortal Palace.

Originally, after Ah Qing took a fall, the Landlords of Longevity inside were in a panic.

While waiting for medical personnel, they started chatting, and somehow turned the conversation to pets, which opened the topic thoroughly, leading to some competitive boasting among the Landlords of Longevity.

One family mentioned how fluffy their own pets were, while another jumped up saying their ancestors had been married into the royal family, and after Spiritualization, their kin were part of the royal line of fluffiness.

The glory of Ying never sets.

Fluffiness conquers the world.

Although Ah Qing was not familiar with foreign families, she was very knowledgeable about pet varieties, knowing that most of the pets on the market were gathered globally by England, brought back for improvement, and then spread worldwide.

Indeed, England is abundant in cute and fluffy creatures.

And the disputes between the Landlords of Longevity gave Ah Qing the connection to arrive at a conclusion.

[The Daiying Federation is preparing for national fluffification, conquering the world by selling cuteness!]

"... I mean, is there any possibility that the fluffiness you're imagining is actually quite formidable?" Ansheng posed a curious expression and asked Ah Qing.

"Really? When I poke them, they make cute 'chirping' noises and feel so soft," Ah Qing said regretfully:

"How unfortunate... I cannot witness their supreme royal lions from their mouths."

"It's nothing special, get a ticket someday, go to their palace, and just call them out to entertain,"

Ansheng spoke with certainty, expressing that Ah Qing's little regret wasn't a big deal. When the time came, she could just head to the palace gates, buy a ticket and get in for a visit.

On the way back, she could even get them to reimburse her ticket and meal expenses.

"That's true." Ah Qing thought of her recently deposited endorsement fee in her bank card, finding the idea quite sensible.

She was only unsure if her Jiule City residence would involve Mazu when applying for a visa.

"Time for bed!"

After watching Momo's live stream, Ah Qing pulled out a handful of wet tissues from beside the window to wipe the Little Fox's hands and feet, glanced at the time, and was ready for sleep.

Tomorrow, on the fifth day, there were plans for visiting relatives and friends; although it wasn't as intense as before, in the morning she had to visit the tea shop to clean up and tidy the place in preparation for welcoming the deity of wealth.

Ah Qing turned her side, switched off the bedside table lamp, curled into the quilt, and glanced at the Little Fox lying in front of her, closing its eyes as if entering dreamland.

"Hmm..."

A strange expression flickered across Ah Qing's cheek, as some bizarre thoughts sprang into her mind.

Meeting the Landlords of Longevity not only let Ah Qing know that wealthy aristocrats were gradually transforming into spirit beasts.

It also enlightened her on a point that humans and spirit beasts could even obtain certificates overseas, without needing human forms.

Once the night lamp was shut in the room, Ah Qing glanced at the Little Fox sleeping in her arms, inadvertently pondering a thought:

[I'm not breaking any laws with this, am I? This shouldn't count as kidnapping kids, right?]

"..."

Ah Qing slowly pulled up the quilt, covering her face, her tangled thoughts making her feel a bit overloaded, as she gradually drifted into sleep.

While the Little Fox, whom Ah Qing believed to be asleep, was at that moment merely closing its eyes.

"Let's go, Auntie Landlord, fill up my Physique!"

Ansheng's consciousness entered the Spiritual Space, planted the Landlord's branch into the soil, and returned to the Wish List.

Ansheng looked at the Wish List, raised her hand, and put her only 1 point of Wish Power all into [Physique].

[Physique: 240→-]

[Wisdom: 270]

[Wish Power: 0]

A faint golden glow emitted from beneath Master Fuli's fur, invigorating every part of her body, making Ansheng squint slightly in comfort, letting out a long "whimpering whimper" from her mouth.

"Whoa... Auntie Landlord still does it best."

The long-lost feeling of comfort descended, instinctively sending a shiver down Ansheng's spine.

Feeling like her Physique solidified by another point.

Unfortunately... with only 1 point of Wish Power, it couldn't bring about the usual comfort of weakened limbs and a numb body.

Ansheng returned from the "massage," lazily glanced at the attribute page of the Wish List.

The Physique column that used to show 240 is now just a dash.

But the (+) sign is still there, only now the Physique value isn't displayed anymore.

[Physique: - (+)]

[Wisdom: 270 (+)]

[Wish Power: 0]

From the Wish List's attribute section, it indicates that the values can continue accumulating, but it seems there's no qualitative leap obtainable from [Physique].

According to the route of the [First Epoch], Master Fuli's later method of advancement can only rely on erosion and assimilation.

Only when one reaches a certain volume can it lead to a qualitative change.

The advancement path of the [Second Epoch], besides the accumulation of knowledge, also requires accumulating values, particularly in [Wisdom Attribute].

Just like the [Will Local Area Network], this thing is essentially a shortcut.

"Devour the planet, increasing size, causing a surge in the number of cells within, with each cell having Self Will."

"As the number of will cells increase, the strength and depth of Power of Will can be amplified..."

"In a sense, couldn't I now step on my own feet and spiral into the sky?"

As Ansheng scanned the Wish List, a quirky look appeared on the little fox's face, seemingly grasping the true strength of the [Third Epoch] mentioned by the Landlord.

Glancing at the panel's values made Ansheng almost want to find a planet to nibble on.

But Ansheng peered out at the starry sky beyond the window.

"Nibble nothing, going back and forth, Ah Qing might have grandsons cooking soy sauce by then."

"Time for bed, time for bed!"

Ansheng, with a face of exasperation, muttered, hugging Ah Qing's neck, nuzzling, and closing her eyes to sleep.
