Chapter 267 – Half for Me

But right at that moment, the energy provided by the pyramid was interrupted . In response, the Fate Stone stopped rotating and everything calmed down .

Wang Zhong suddenly regained his motor functions . The golden slab had landed in his hand some unknown time ago, the runes across its surface seemingly alive . As for the Fate Stone, one side of it had been enlarged, as though it represented Wang Zhong’s status .

As though it were alive, the golden runes of the golden slab drilled into his body, instantly making Wang Zhong feel as though he’d been thrown for a moment into a deep fryer . The rune patterns along one side of the Fate Stone had also lit up, this entire process completely automated without anyone’s conscious control .

By the time this all ended, the enormous pyramid seemed to visibly erode, dissipating with the breeze . It disappeared, and the three fell from the air and slammed heavily into the ground .

Getting knocked awake by the fall, Simba was sent sprawling and knocked himself back into unconsciousness against the golden slab .

Wang Zhong opened his eyes and was instantly hit by a round, ball-like thing in the nose… wasn’t this a dimensional mayfly!?

The soft, marshmallow-like dimensional mayfly blinked, then opened its mouth… and smiled .

What a hair-raising adventure this had been . Although Aiolos and Mu Zi had almost lost their lives, what they currently felt was simply a great curiosity . They clearly had their own comprehension of life and death . This comprehension was unlike the proclaimed ideal set by soldiers of the Federation who spoke of bravery and a lack of fear gained after seeing past life and death . What Aiolos had was a firm belief in fighting while Mu Zi genuinely walked the fine line between life and death . Neither were paranoid or crazed in their beliefs, and instead treasured their life and experience like normal when outside of danger .

The gigantic pyramid had already disappeared without leaving a trace, so the trio simply sat in its former location, Ham Sausage crouching on the ground with its large tongue out . It had returned to its originally malnourished dog form . One simply couldn’t imagine its true shape after absorbing some soul power . This kind of ability obviously made Simba very interested in Ham Sausage .

“Come over here, Ham Sausage . Let the Might Simba sit on you . I’ll even give you something good!” This small Ham Sausage wasn’t suitable for Simba’s mount, but in its eye-catching form it suited Simba’s long-time desire for a steed .

It was unfortunate for him, however, that Ham Sausage didn’t have the slightest interest in Simba . It instead sat on the floor, unable to take its eyes off the cola and ham sausage . When Wang Zhong opened the package of ham sausage, its fragrance wafted out and immediately made those watching gulp down their saliva .

“I’ll bring more next time,” Wang Zhong said with a smile . The benefits he’d obtained in this adventure ahd reached quite the inconceivable level . He had truly profited from this disaster .

“How do you open this thing?” Taking a can of cola, Mu Zi began to touch it gingerly . It was far too valuable to him, too luxurious . In the Tutankhamun Empire it was something too hard to purchase even if you had the money . On one hand there was only a limited supply in the empire . On the other hand, they had all been monopolized by the royal and noble clans . Yet, before him now was a stash of it .

Wang Zhong took up his own can and pulled the tab . The unique smell of cola immediately spread with a pop . “Just drink it from here . ”

Aiolos couldn’t help but shake his head from the explanation . “The Federation is indeed extremely luxurious . They actually wasted such technology on packaging food . This should be that thing known as ‘industrialization’ from the old era . ”

While it was considered the second strongest power on the Brave Continent, there was still too big a difference between his Pampasi Empire and the number one Amazon Empire . All trade with the Federation had been dominated by the latter .

Laughing, Wang Zhong took a huge swig . Although there wasn’t any benefit from drinking so much, it was still very refreshing to gulp it down . The hyperdimension was too fantastic! Even though he was in his current form, he was still able to enjoy the stimulation of his sensory organs like normal . In the higher dimensions, the spiritual and physical forms were considered proper existences .

As he considered this profound topic, Mu Zi and Aiolos were still engrossed in the cola . Taking small sips, the air bubbles captured with the oddly sweet taste erupted in their mouths . It was as though their taste buds had become a bit numb afterward . The dehydration and weakness from all the earlier fighting seemed to recover, giving them a slightly strange sensation .

The eyes of the two curved with enjoyment . To the side, saliva drooled from the hellhound and pooled atop the ground .

Two seconds later, Aiolos carefreely gulped down the entire can while Mu Zi continued to take small sips as he sampled the cola . It was as though he wanted to keep a memory of this taste and emotion forever .

Aiolos simply opened another can and finally gave the ham sausage a large bite . His method of eating completely matched his temperament .

“Delicious! While the outward appearance looks a bit disappointing, the taste is rather rich and substantial . This would be much better with some wine,” said Aiolos .

Mu Zi also took a bite out of the ham sausage and almost burst into tears by its deliciousness . Before Aiolos and Wang Zhong he actually looked like an ordinary person . Neither blamed him, though, as he could only find such inner peace in the hyperdimension .

Devouring everything in one clean sweep, Aiolos and Mu Zi wiped out the cola and ham in a few moments . To the side, Ham Sausage could only stare anxiously the entire time and eat the bits and pieces that fell to the side . It wasn’t enough to even fill the gaps between its teeth, but the flavour was still enough to make it drool uncontrollably .

“Ham Sausage, let’s strike a deal . If you become my mount then I’ll let Wang Zhong prepare a portion specially for you next time . How’s that? I’m definitely more generous than that little baldy!” Simba finally unleashed his fatal plan of enticement .

The hellhound immediately stared at Mu Zi with wide eyes . Mu Zi saw this and nodded . “If we meet again, then I’ll lend him to you . ”

“Haha! Baldy, so you do have moments when you can make others happy! Too great!” Simba immediately jumped over and sat right on Ham Sausage’s head . He immediately felt like a mighty ruler .

“Ham Sausage, remember to give me half,” added Mu Zi . Simba almost fell off Ham Sausage .

Wang Zhong couldn’t help but laugh at this . It was only at this time that one could feel Mu Zi’s child-like personality . In combat he felt… incomparably spectral-like, baffling and enigmatic .

“My soul power increased greatly this time . I should be able to enlarge and bring more in the dimensional pouch the next we meet,” said Wang Zhong .

Aiolos felt extremely comfortable and said, “I had looked down on Federation-made things before, but I’ve finally seen the light . While it’s just a bit of food, I can feel how deep and profound the Federation’s foundations are . I’ll also bring a few things next time . Although it isn’t much where I am, it’ll be extremely valuable in the Federation . ”

Wang Zhong had previously heard matters involving the Federation’s plundering of empire resources, and in the Federation it was even treated as a joke . It was a method for the Federation to help build a feeling of superiority in its citizens . Now, however, Wang Zhong felt ashamed of himself .

Aiolos smiled at Wang Zhong’s expression but continued, “Wang Zhong, this is life . The law of the jungle . Reason and rationale does not exist there . Just don’t think too much on it; humans simply need to live life to the fullest and do what they want to do . The three of us got to know each other through fate, so don’t mind the stuff that doesn’t need to be minded . In any case, we did just experience a live-or-die situation . ”

Mu Zi nodded firmly when he heard this, and even Ham Sausage followed suit . The poor Simba was almost flung off its head from the motion .

“Wang Zhong, as a person of the Federation you should head to the adventurer bases of the Federation . There should be a few things there that can aid you,” Aiolos suddenly said .

“Adventurer base?” Wang Zhong gawked a little at the familiar term . Hadn’t Old Potter mentioned such a thing before?
