The Interstellar's Expert Plant Tamer

Chapter 103: Public Cooking

Xie Sen saw the comments, and subconsciously looked at the time. It was only 3 pm. In order to eat a piece of boiled fish, if they started waiting now for tomorrow morning at 10 am, they would stay out overnight.

What kind of foodie spirit was this?
He once again felt that the Brandt Star people were too poor. In terms of food, they were simply too miserable. He grasped Maine’s shoulder. “You guys haven’t eaten anything good since you were kids, have you?”

Maine, “I’m used to it.”

Xie Sen thought about how they drank the nutrient solution without changing their faces and thought, They are really used to it, I wouldn’t be so calm when I drank something that bad!

The two of them made preparations for the next day, then went to see the contract beasts together. The flying eagle beast was still unable to fly, but it walked quickly, and it often lay in the accommodation area and chatted with the fae.

The beasts were recovering well, perhaps because of the many companions around. Their manic moments had been greatly reduced, but they still remained very wary of people.

Except for Xie Sen, they were only comfortable around Gu Luo, Bai Jiao, and Father Bai, who had examined them many times in the company of Xie Sen, along Maine and Long Teng, who were often present. However, they still got agitated when they met strangers.

When Xie Sen and Long Teng entered, Father Bai and Bai Jiao were there. After they greeted them, Father Bai glanced outside and said, “Let’s go out and talk.”

Xie Sen immediately understood what he meant. What he wanted to say wasn’t for the fae to hear. This also meant that no contract beast could hear. With the speed at which contract beasts chatted to spread the news, when one knew, soon all would know.

The four of them went to the house, and sat down on the sofa. Father Bai said, “I used to believe that contract beasts were of low intelligence until after I came to you to treat the fae. Then I realized that I had greatly underestimated their intelligence.”

Xie Sen smiled, “After all, the Brandt Star people, at their earliest, were also in beast form.”

“You’re right,” Father Bai said, “In fact. I’ve studied human history, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the contract beasts you’re feeding could actually transform into human adults.”

Holy shit!

Xie Sen was shocked. He hadn’t really considered that. It was like how he knew that modern humans evolved from apes and monkeys, but when he saw the smart apes, he didn’t think they would suddenly become human. He asked, “Is it really possible?”

Father Bai said carefully, “It’s very likely, but it has a lot to do with the physiological and psychological environment. They recognize the beast form and are used to it, so if they know themselves as contract beasts, they won’t.”

Xie Sen thought to himself, Does this mean that it is possible to become a human if you have the idea of becoming a human?

Father Bai didn’t elaborate on the subject, but turned to business. “It’s because I know that their intelligence is very high, that I deliberately excluded them from my next words.”

Xie Sen collected the rest of his thoughts, and was a bit worried, “Is it about the treatment?”

Father Bai nodded. “Yes, the lab’s contract beasts are recovering well. I discussed it with several experts. President Mu also participated in the meeting. We agreed that this is the best time to treat them. If it’s any later, the fusion of the organs that were forced into them will be too deep and surgery will be difficult. They are in just the right place to benefit from surgery,” he said, then sighed. “But the surgery will be very traumatic. It will take many people and a long time. In addition, to make sure the surgery goes smoothly, they must be under general anesthesia.”
