Chen Fan felt quite helpless. When he opened his eyes, he realized he was being treated like a helium balloon, floating along, pulled by a rope.
It was truly a suffocating situation.
“Chen Fan, you really slept for a long time!” Akabane Karma said with a faint smile while squatting on the slope.
Ignoring him, Chen Fan pointed to an open space not far away and asked, “What are they doing over there?”
Upon hearing Chen Fan's question, Akabane Karma squinted his eyes and replied with a hint of exasperation, “Koro-sensei is hosting a barbecue party to celebrate the supermarket's discount today. They are setting up the barbecue grill over there!”
Barbecue?
Chen Fan twisted his stiff neck and followed Akabane Karma's gaze. In the nearby open area, several figures were busily rummaging around. It seemed they were indeed setting up the barbecue grill as Akabane Karma had mentioned.
“Why do they have to set it up themselves?” Chen Fan scratched his head, somewhat puzzled by the Island Nationer's way of thinking.
In his impression, wasn't it possible to just buy a barbecue grill from the supermarket?
“I don’t know either!” Akabane Karma shrugged and chuckled lightly.
“Wait? Isn’t the barbecue grill supposed to be set up by themselves?” Monster Teacher shot over a shadowy glance, filled with confusion, and gave Chen Fan a look that said: Don’t deceive your teacher!
Chen Fan rolled his eyes. “Isn’t that thing readily available at the supermarket? Even if it’s not, there are places that rent out barbecue grills!”
It wasn’t like they were having a picnic; why would they need to set up a barbecue grill themselves? Besides, what they were building over there looked more like a bonfire stand!
It was so large that there would be enough space to roast an entire cow!
"Is there something to buy at the supermarket? Are there professional rental shops?" Tentacle from Monster Teacher clearly stiffened, beads of cold sweat dripping to the ground as he cheerfully pulled out a book and began to flip through it carefully.
Chen Fan glanced over, his lips twitching silently.
— "Beard's Wilderness Survival Guide on the Correct Way to Barbecue Outdoors"
As for why Uncle Bei appeared in the Marvel Universe, Chen Fan didn't want to know. However, if the title was correct, it seemed to be a book about outdoor barbecuing!
"I have a ready-to-use barbecue grill at home. Koro-sensei, you can go pick it up. The door code is! The address is ****!" Chen Fan said with a grin, shifting his gaze away from the cover of the book.
While Chen Fan was speaking, the construction work in another area also came to a halt. After half an hour of busy assembling the barbecue grill, the few people involved had their lips twitching in disbelief; it turned out that barbecue grills could be bought or rented!
Ujian Weichen's expression began to twist awkwardly as he raised his head in disbelief, never expecting that his lifelong reputation would be tarnished over a barbecue grill...
Looking at the few teachers whose faces were not quite normal, Chen Fan grinned. These individuals were either assassins or professional soldiers; they probably needed to consult a manual just to prepare instant noodles.
He really couldn't understand where their confidence came from, suddenly jumping from zero cooking skills to the level of barbecuing.
Regarding this issue, Chen Fan wanted to point at them and ask: With such a huge leap, where did your confidence come from?
"Teacher Wu Jian and Ms. Irina, you two go help classmate Nagisa Shiota with the ingredients!" After the others stopped their construction work, Monster Teacher directed the two who looked somewhat uneasy.
Then, with a sound like tearing through the air, he vanished from everyone's sight in an instant.
As for where he went?
Clearly, he was off to Chen Fan's house to get the barbecue grill!
For the Monster Teacher, who could reach Mach 0, the entire Earth was merely a zone; the distance from the Island Nation to America was as simple as stepping next door.
The moonlight was beautiful yet shattered, appearing from afar like countless enormous stars, evoking an inevitable sense of desolation.
If this monster could easily destroy the moon, how could Earth, which was not much different from the moon, avoid disaster?
Ujian Weichen's expression was complex.
The two did not follow Monster Teacher's instructions to assist Nagisa Shiota, who was busy preparing ingredients. To them, that woman was an extremely taboo presence.
As elite assassins born from special forces, both could sense Maid Sister's wariness and rejection towards strangers. To avoid unnecessary trouble, reducing contact seemed to be the right choice.
Ujian Weichen appreciated Irina's awareness of her surroundings; however, before he could feel at ease, this woman approached Thunder Lord himself. Was she trying to look for trouble?
Ujian Weichen still remembered Bai Chenfan's warning. From his brief words, he sensed Chen Fan's aversion or even disgust towards Irina.
While chatting with Akabane Karma, Chen Fan instinctively sensed a repulsive aura approaching. He frowned and turned to look in that direction, where a graceful figure was walking towards him with elegant steps.
"Let me call you Ms. Irina for now... but if you want to get closer to me, I advise you to reconsider!" Chen Fan suppressed the divine power surging within him.
If he didn't do so, he felt that the Beautiful Teacher before him might be struck dead by irresistible lightning on the spot.
Irina's expression stiffened as she halted her steps. She couldn't understand why Bai Chenfan disliked her.
"Ms. Irina, I have something I want to discuss with you!" Ujian Weichen grabbed Irina's long hair from behind and dragged her away as if she were trash.
"If I'm not mistaken, Chen Fan, you seem to have a strong aversion to Teacher Biki?" Akabane Karma asked with a puzzled tone. Although the Beautiful Teacher had a bit of a temper, she wasn't someone who would be disliked upon first meeting.
"Yes! But not entirely!" Chen Fan smiled, looking at the increasingly confused Akabane Karma with a helpless expression. "In terms of will, I don't dislike her, but my body instinctively rejects this kind of woman. You can consider this a side effect of my ability!"
"It's like the Island Priestess; only a girl with a pure heart and an untainted body can serve in that role. My ability has similar conditions and repels contact with certain types of people! And it happens passively!"
Akabane Karma looked bewildered; such an ability was indeed peculiar!
Chen Fan had speculated that there were many deities with Thunder Authority, but he couldn't recall any deity that matched this description from his memories.
Disliking women with an alluring aura?
Such deities did exist, but as far as he knew, they didn't possess the authority of thunder!
"Yiya—."
A sharp sound suddenly pierced the air as Monster Teacher descended, carrying a large barbecue grill, with a tentacle gripping what appeared to be the tail of some creature.
"Koro-sensei... what is that thing you're holding?" Nagisa Shiota's face turned pale.
Anyone would look unwell in front of a tail that was a meter in diameter and over three meters long.
Maid Sister didn't show any signs of fear; sometimes Chen Fan couldn't understand her thoughts.
She would get nervous and scared when facing people, yet remained completely unfazed in front of fierce animals, which made Chen Fan's cheeks twitch in pain.
For instance, even Ujian Weichen, an elite from the special forces, suddenly drew his dagger upon seeing an unknown creature's tail appear before him, his gaze sharp as he maintained an aggressive stance.
However, Maid Sister remained indifferent and simply moved closer to where Chen Fan was standing.
"Monster... where did you get this thing?" Ujian Weichen stared intently, his expression unusually serious. The tail of an unknown creature? It felt like something bad was about to happen!
"This thing looks a lot like a Lizard's tail," Akabane Karma remarked as he approached, resting his chin on his hand.
"Ah! Akabane-kun, as expected of an excellent student, this tail is indeed from a Lizard!" Monster Teacher clapped his hands, his tone filled with unreserved admiration.
"A Lizard's tail?" Irina scoffed lightly, chuckling derisively. There’s no skill in lying!
The diameter of the tail exceeded one meter; if there really was such a Lizard, it would have to be enormous!
"Koro-sensei... why did you bring back a Lizard's tail? For research?" Nagisa Shiota, coming back to his senses, asked in confusion. No matter how you looked at it, this bloody tail was quite frightening.
"I brought it back for eating, of course!" Monster Teacher waved his Tentacle, and suddenly a book appeared in front of everyone. After flipping through a few pages, he said, "The Lizard is considered a first-class protected wild animal in Chao. Its meat is sweet and fragrant, making it a rare delicacy, also known as the Seven Treasures Mountain Delicacies!"
"Is it really that delicious?" Akabane Karma scratched his head, glancing at the book in Koro-sensei's hands, where several large characters were prominently displayed.
——"Uncle Bei's Wilderness Survival Guide: The Correct Way to Eat Wild Game"
"This big Lizard... it can't be a genetic throwback or mutation, right? Regular Lizards can't grow this big!" Chen Fan, who was wielding the Thunder Book, leaned over. As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze was drawn to the book in Monster Teacher's hands. Oh man, not Uncle Bei again—
To be honest, city folks don’t need wilderness survival guides!
Hearing Chen Fan's question, everyone focused their attention on Monster Teacher. Given the size of the tail, the body of this Lizard must be several times larger than an elephant; this was not the size a Lizard should have!
Monster Teacher did not hold back and explained in great detail where the ingredient came from.
"When I went to Chen Fan's house to get the barbecue grill, I happened to see Spider-Man fighting a Giant Lizard on my way back. It reminded me of tonight's barbecue, so I casually cut off a piece of that Giant Lizard's tail!"
"Don't worry, the Lizard's tail will grow back after being cut! We can cut it again next time!"
Everyone twitched at the corners of their mouths and shot a fierce glare at Monster Teacher. Cutting it once and being able to cut it again? Were you seriously treating it like harvesting leeks?
Had anyone thought about how that Giant Lizard felt?
As everyone discussed how to properly cook Lizard Meat, Chen Fan suddenly shifted his gaze away from the Lizard's tail. He realized something was off—
Damn it, that wasn't just the Lizard's tail; it was clearly the tail of Lizard Doctor! Although he had forgotten this character's name, Chen Fan knew that this creature was originally human!
"Koro-sensei, you handle the Lizard Meat! Leave the barbecue grill to me!" Akabane Karma exclaimed.
Forget about Lizard Meat being a top-tier ingredient; he hadn't even tasted ordinary game before. It seemed like tonight would be a real treat!
Chen Fan secretly blinked. Should he tell these Vibrant Goods the truth?
(Just one thing: Happy Qixi!)
