nLost Atlantis 5
nXie Xi didn’t feel well as he saw the progress bar rise and fall this way.
nDidn’t the sixth prince like to eat? Did Xie Xi choose what the prince hated the most? Sixth prince, was he superficially polite while feeling dislike in his heart?
nXie Xi was afraid this orange progress bar would return to zero and hurriedly sat upright, not showing any more traces of concern.
nSure enough, the task of the perverted X wasn’t so simple. It seemed that the sixth prince’s nature was very eccentric.
nHow could he gain the love of an eccentric person? Xie Xi didn’t have any normal love experience and couldn’t figure it out.
nHe didn’t dare pay attention to the sixth prince anymore. It was only now that he noticed the fifth prince on his other side was silent.
nHe felt good towards the fifth prince and was in the mood to reciprocate. He got up and helped fill the fifth prince’s empty wine glass.
nThe fifth prince looked up at him and Xie Xi smiled politely.
nThe fifth prince spoke in a stiff manner, “This is the work of servants. There is no need for you to do it.”
nXie Xi lowered his voice and spoke at a volume only the other person could hear. “Your subordinate should pour the wine. It is thanks to Your Highness’ magnanimity that I got the opportunity to taste such delicacies.”
nThe fifth princes’ eyes and lips curved. “The Hall family is honourable. You don’t need to be so self-deprecating.”
nXie Xi’s fish tail showed that his blood was impure and it was also estimated that the name Hall wasn’t among the nobles.
nXie Xi smiled in a dumbfounded manner.
nThe mission progress rose from 1% to 3%…
nThe progress bar was a very long line and the progress of 3% was small. Due to the bright orange colour, it was very conspicuous and easy to see.
nWhy had it gone up again? Xie Xi glanced at the sixth prince from the corner of his eyes.
nThe sixth prince was stable as he seriously ate. He didn’t look at Xie Xi at all.
nWas it only when ignoring the prince that the affection would rise?
nXie Xi couldn’t understand. Was the sixth prince mentally ill? On the other hand, this was X’s soul. The master was so crazy. The soul was just an immature wisp and would be even more crazy…
nSince it would make the progress rise, let’s ignore him.
nXie Xi completely didn’t look at the sixth prince and talked happily with the fifth prince.
nXie Xi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. By the end of the meal, Xie Xi hadn’t glanced once at the sixth prince yet the progress bar had risen to 8%!
nOnce it was over, the fifth prince said to him, “Go and find me when you have time.”
nXie Xi replied, “Okay.” In fact, he replied in a perfunctory manner. ‘If you don’t live with the sixth prince, I won’t come and find you.’
nThe second prince was a troublemaker. He glanced between Xie Xi and the fifth prince and smiled. “Your beauty is matched with talent. Small Sein really has vision.”
nXie Xi, “…” Fuck your beauty!
nThe third prince was filled with bitterness. “Fickle person.”
nXie Xi, “???”
nHow good of a young man was he? He made this group of psychopaths violently angry.
nThe fifth prince defended him. “Don’t say that to him. Small Sein is a guard of the royal family. He is very talented…”
nHe didn’t finish his words before the second prince interrupted. “Yes, he doesn’t serve those who don’t look like a king.”
nXie Xi heard that the mother of the third prince was a servant of the queen. She was noticed by the king because of her beauty, admitted to the harem and gave birth to the third prince.
nOnce the second prince said this, the third prince blew up. HIs eyes were red, his lips thinned into a line as he stared at the second and fifth prince, also implicating Xie Xi along the way.
nXie Xi, “…” Get lost, they were all in the way of the sixth prince!
nThe fourth prince coughed, breaking the atmosphere. “Brothers, this isn’t good. Poor hospitality will make my brothers unhappy with me.
nThe second prince smiled. “How can that be? You are secluded in this beautiful and quiet place, filled with delicious food and wine. Brother should be very happy.”
nThe third prince wasn’t provoked by the second prince to make trouble for the fourth prince. He scoffed and left.
nAs soon as the third prince left, the second prince glanced at Xie Xi and went away with an ambiguous smile.
nXie Xi couldn’t help cursing, ‘Gaudy person!’
nAfter returning to the royal guards, Xie Xi didn’t get in contact with the sixth prince again and the task progress stopped at 8%.
nHowever, Xie Xi felt this progress was very good. It had risen by nearly one-tenth after one encounter. After becoming thoroughly familiar with each other, wasn’t it a matter of time until he completed the task?
nXie Xi looked at the orange progress bar in a contented manner. He just lay down to rest when he received a hint.
nThe elf egg has successfully hatched. Please accept it.
nIt finally hatched? Xie Xi’s eyes lit up and and sat up.
nHe shouted in his heart, “I will receive it.” Then a light flashed and something white fell on his palm.
nXie Xi just felt that the palm of his hand was soft. He looked closely and his lips curved.
nThe little furry guy, its white hair seemed to be shining as bright as the stars.
nXie Xi reached out and poked him.
nThe little fellow twisted and the body that was in a ball gradually stretched out.
nIt looked like…
nA small kitten?
nXie Xi thought this elf would be like the small creatures in animated cartoons. He didn’t expect it to be a small animal.
nHe liked small animals and in particular, he had no resistance towards furry ones like this.
nHe couldn’t help poking it again. Unexpectedly, the small cat had a pair of white wings on his back.
nThe little fellow flapped its wings and flew up. The short legs dangled down and its eyes opened.
nXie Xi, “!”
n“Meow~ Mommy!” The small cat slammed into Xie Xi’s arms.
nXie Xi, “…”
n“Mommy!” The small cat stared up at him with watery eyes. “Uh… Mommy, you look a bit ugly but it doesn’t matter. I don’t hate you.”
nWho didn’t hate whom?
nXie Xi picked up this little fellow and stared for a while.
nThe kitten’s eyes, one was sky blue and the other was sunset red…
nIt was really a Persian cat!
nXie Xi endured it and managed not to throw the cat away!
nThe small cat was unaware and asked him, “Mommy, what is my name?”
nXie Xi, “…”
n“Mommy?”
nXie Xi’s lips curved downwards. “Fork…” X should be read as Axe but he read it as ‘fork’ in his heart! (TL: Remember, different Chinese characters.)
nThe small cat asked, “Fork?”
n“Roast Pork Bun!”
nThe small cat was silent before he struggled to survive. “Can you change it? It is so hard to hear…”
nXie Xi was ruthless. “No.”
nThe small cat made tearful eyes. “Mommy~”
nThis call made Xie Xi even more determined. “My name is Xie Xi. I’m a man and I’m not your mother.”
nThe small cat, no, he was Roast Pork Bun now, made a wronged expression. “Elves are very rare. All of you should treat elves as babies…’
nXie Xi asked, “Should I?”
n“That’s right.” Roast Pork Bun cried out. “It is written in the hatching training courses. We will transform into the appearance our mother loves the most and will be pampered. We only need to eat, drink, sleep and occasionally spoil…” This was different from what was taught!
nXie Xi, “…” He didn’t care about this bull** hatching course. His mind was full of the words, ‘The appearance our mother loves most.’
nDid he really like this Persian cat? Oh, he was thinking too much. He wanted to kill that person!
nThe more Xie Xi thought about it, the angrier he was. “What is your use?”
nRoast Pork Bun stared with big eyes. “Aren’t I cute? Am I not likeable?” He turned in a circle to show how cute he was. Unfortunately, his mother was blind. “Isn’t this Mommy’s favourite appearance?”
nXie Xi, “…” He wanted to cover him with the blanket.
nHe remembered the tip in the item bar: Gold grade. Hurry to sell it. Exchanging it for money is more cost-effective than raising this thing!
nHe should’ve sold this elf for money. Sure enough, X wouldn’t give him anything good!
nRoast Pork Bun hummed. “In every quasi-world, I can help you resist three fatal injuries.” His mother wasn’t normal. He had to try hard to survive QAQ!
nXie Xi asked, “What else?”
nRoast Pork Bun’s eyes were watery. “I can also sell meng…”
nXie Xi, “…”
nRoast Pork Bun wanted to cry. Wasn’t selling meng a skill? As long as he sold it well, he wouldn’t be afraid to travel anywhere in the world. The training course was wrong!
nXie Xi was sleep and pulled the cat into his arms. He found the cat was too small to even be suitable as a pillow.
nRoast Pork Bun didn’t move until deep breathing sounds were heard. He just wanted to climb out when he heard his mother saying, “…If I had known, I would’ve sold it for money.”
nRoast Pork Bun shrank back and didn’t dare move. This was different from what he expected.
nAnd… wasn’t a golden elf exclusive to wealthy tyrants? Why did he feel like his mother was a bit poor…
nXie Xi used two days to study and understand Roast Pork Bun.
nThe name wasn’t wrong. This really was a roasted pork.
nThe only active skill: Immune to three fatal injuries. The advantage is that there is also a painless effect. This skill reset after leaving the quasi-world, meaning it could be reused in the next quasi-world.
nThere was also a stealth passive skill in the quasi-world. As long as Xie Xi didn’t want it, no one could see this Roast Pork Bun.
nAs for the other abilities… he could really chatter!
nXie Xi hatched him and signed an attachment treaty with him. Thus, Roast Pork Bun unconditionally relied on Xie Xi. If Xie Xi didn’t want him, he wouldn’t be able to survive.
nRoast Pork Bun, “Mommy…”
nXie Xi glanced at him.
nRoast Pork Bun changed it to, “Daddy…”
nXie Xi was only 19 and didn’t want to be a father. “Call me by my name.”
nRoast Pork Bun didn’t dare think about it. He thought for a long time before hiding the name. “I am still small. I can evolve after I grow up.”
n“Evolve?”
nRoast Pork Bun hurriedly said, “Yes, I can evolve as long as you raise me well!”
nXie Xi asked, “What is the method to raise you well?”
nRoast Pork Bun, “…” This wasn’t written in the training course. It was written to sell meng and live well! However, his mother didn’t eat the meng that he sold!
nRoast Pork Bun stammered, “You will know after I evolve.”
nXie Xi smiled.
nRoast Pork Bun cried out, “Really… I will really become amazing!”
nXie Xi carried the cat in his collar.
nThe small head of Roast Pork Bun hung from the collar and felt a burst of warmth… His mother was somewhat fierce but didn’t seem to hate him.
nXie Xi met Thomas and Thomas’ eyes lit up. “I happened to be looking for help with an errand.”
nXie Xi hurriedly said, “Captain, please command me.’
nThomas smiled. “It is almost the holy day and His Majesty has prepared gifts for all the palaces. If you aren’t busy, please help.” The old king gave birth to so many children that it was troublesome to send them one by one.
nThis was an opportunity! Xie Xi instantly replied, “I’ll help.”
nThomas nodded, “Okay, then look at the delivery and make sure everything is the same. After the delivery, sign there on that line.” There were many princes and princesses and everyone was busy.
nXie Xi had to repeatedly go through the masses.
nHe took a gift and didn’t hesitate to go to the sixth prince’s palace.
nHow could he miss such a chance to increase the progress of the task?
nDue to the job, XIe Xi received a brand new and high-tech product with a small navigator. He followed the prompts and moved forward.
nRoast Pork Bun probed his thoughts. “Mom.. cough, where are we going ya?” Did he add a word at the end to act cute?
nXie Xi replied, “…To sell you.”
nRoast Pork Bun, “!!!” After a long time, he reacted. This was a quasi-world. Who could afford him? Boo hoo, Mommy is too bad QAQ!
nXie Xi’s lips curved and his chin inadvertently rubbed against this furry little fool.
nRoast Pork Bun didn’t dare to scream.
nThe palace of the sixth prince was very depressing. No mermaids could be seen along the way and even the shrimp soldiers weren’t present. It was like a cold palace.
nXie Xi vaguely knew something…
nThe sixth prince had different coloured eyes and his mother died as soon as he was born. Soon afterwards, all of his mother’s family died and even the servants didn’t live long.
nOver time, the entire palace shunned him. The old king had many women and children but remembered him. Later, no one mentioned the sixth prince and even the old king forgot him.
nHis mother was gone and his father was absent. The sixth prince’s days were miserable.
nXie Xi pitied him and started to understand the sixth prince’s strange personality.
nIt wasn’t easy.
nXie Xi walked in and whispered, “Your Highness…”
nThere was a click as something was broken. This sound was extra harsh in the dark and secluded palace.
nXie Xi saw that the sixth prince was writing.
nThe sixth prince was sitting upright. His long hair was untied and hung close to his side. He wore very ordinary black clothes and his cuffs hung down from his waist, revealing white skin that wasn’t thin.
nHe held a pen in his slender fingers and the pen had just broken.
nXie Xi bowed to him.
nThe sixth prince glanced at him. “What’s the matter?”
nXie Xi raised the gift over his head. “The holy day is coming. This is the gift His Majesty prepared for you.”
nThe sixth prince was evidently startled. He got up and walked down. “F-Father?”
nXie Xi’s heart tightened. Unexpected, this seemed like the first time the sixth prince had received a gift.
n“It has been hard on you.” The sixth prince raised Xie Xi up, voice slightly hoarse. “Get up.”
nXie Xi got up and looked at him.
nAfter seeing these eyes, he felt the prince was as pitiful as Roast Pork Bun.
nThe sixth prince was slightly startled. “Aren’t you… Guard Sein?”
nXie Xi smiled and said, “Sixth Prince has a good memory. You still remember the name of this subordinate.”
nThe sixth prince smiled at him. “Sit down and drink some tea.”
nXie Xi wanted to say no but he was suddenly stunned.
nThere was a change in the lower right corner.
nThe task progress had gone up from 8% to 12%, but the colour had changed!
nThe front 8% was orange while the back 4% was blue.
nHow come there were two colours?
nThe sixth prince noticed his strangeness. “Guard Sein?”
nXie Xi’s spirit returned and he barely managed to smile. “This subordinate won’t disturb Your Highness.”
nThe sixth prince looked calm. “Okay.”
nThe 4% progress dropped slightly.
nXie Xi suppressed the absurd thoughts in his heart and said, “I have to go and give gifts to the other palaces. Sixth Prince, please forgive me.”
nThe sixth prince’s eyes brightened. “You haven’t gone to my brothers yet?”
n“Yes.” Xie Xi replied, “I came to Your Highness first.”
nHe watched the blue progress bar rise a bit more.
nThe sixth prince said, “Go quickly and don’t delay your business.”
nXie Xi bowed and departed, his body in a state of confusion.
nWhy were there two colours?
nThe orange was 8% and the blue was 4%.
nWhat does this mean?
nXie Xi had an absurd idea…
nWasn’t the orange progress bar regarding the sixth prince? Who else could it be?
nDuring the previous meal, the fifth prince had showed enthusiasm towards him.
nNo way.
nXie Xi’s heart beat like a drum. Surely it wouldn’t be so pitted?
nThe task clearly wrote that it was the sixth prince, right?
nRoast Pork Bun felt that his mother’s mood was wrong and whispered, “Are you cold?”
nThe little body moved closer to him as he spoke.
nXie Xi’s spirit recovered.
nIf this was the case, it would be easy to test out.
nHe just needed to send the presents…
n
