Chapter 1015: Chapter 477: Pollution Outbreak, Lin Reaches Out

All one hundred candidates had entered the three warehouses and started searching for the Taboo Things.

This stage tested a person’s sensitivity to Taboo Things. Some, by mere intuition, could locate them as if the heavens were literally feeding them.

Lin Baici leaned against the door, too lazy to enter.

If one were to cheat at this stage, they’d only need to know beforehand what the Taboo Things were, then the rest was simply to find them and confirm their presence and exact locations.

Xia Hongyao was earnest in his efforts, while An Yi Xian was slacking off, sidling up to Lin Baici.

"Your luck with the ladies isn’t bad, huh? What’s the matter? Is Red Medicine’s beauty not enough to satisfy you?" An Yi Xian teased.

"Sister Xian, don’t talk nonsense. I don’t care about reputation, but Red Medicine does."

Lin Baici hurriedly explained, "She and I are just friends!"

"Funny, I don’t care about reputation either!" An Yi Xian chuckled and gave Lin Baici a playful look.

"..."

Was that a flirtation?

Lin Baici knew nothing and dared not ask, so he could only smile and play dumb.

Honestly, An Yi Xian was quite attractive, and being a young widow, she had a significant impact on the hearts of men. Unfortunately for her, Lin Baici had seen too many beauties and didn’t find An Yi Xian intriguing.

Lin Baici couldn’t help but think of the Lady Boss and Xia Qila - she wasn’t bad either.

"You’ve only tasted Goryeo girl a few times, and now you’re pretending to be too good for this young widow?"

"Who gave you that confidence?"

"As the apex of the food chain, the entire world is your hunting ground, procreating is your duty!"

"And what you don’t eat, no one else can!"

"The king should have the king’s authority!"

"Don’t worry about your kidneys, they can handle it, go forth and multiply!"

Eater God commented.

"The one before you is healthy, has a gentle personality, knows how to take care of men - she’s a good female companion!"

"Just kidding!"

Seeing Lin Baici blushing, An Yi Xian thought he was quite shy. "That doesn’t make sense, with your looks and assets, you must have dated quite a list of girlfriends."

"I’ve never had a girlfriend!" Lin Baici recalled this fact and felt overwhelmed. Fortunately, Kim Myungjin came from a chaebol family accustomed to marital discord, so she wasn’t demanding about the label of girlfriend.

Lin Baici knew she’d be satisfied as long as he was willing to be with her.

"Who are you kidding? I bet you had some close contact with female classmates back in high school, right?" An Yi Xian probed, pressing against Lin Baici’s chest. Even with clothes on, he had an impressive physique.

"My family was poor. I spent every day studying in high school, aiming for a good university, then a good job to make lots of money." Lin Baici looked at the other candidates with a flood of emotions, "If it weren’t for accidentally becoming a God Hunter, I wouldn’t have had time for dating during my four years at university!"

"In other words, you didn’t measure up!" An Yi Xian sensed the bitterness and sadness in Lin Baici’s words and patted his arm understandingly.

Actually, she wanted to pat Lin Baici on the shoulder, but the guy was too tall.

Damn it!

It would look so mismatched if we went shopping together.

He feels like a little puppy I raised!

With this thought, An Yi Xian laughed and then teased again, "If you’re feeling lonely and cold, I can keep you company!"

"Ha, that ’keep you company’ has an improper connotation!"

"How about it?" An Yi Xian poked Lin Baici again, "Are you looking forward to it?"

"Sister Xian, I’m afraid your brother-in-law would beat me up!" Lin Baici dodged playfully.

"What are you talking about? I’m not married!" An Yi Xian rolled her eyes, "I am a proper woman; if I were married, I certainly wouldn’t mess around!"

"Sure, Sister Xian, you’re a good woman!" Lin Baici quickly nodded his agreement.

"But, hey, even if I had a husband, I might make an exception for you!" An Yi Xian tilted her head to look at Lin Baici’s face.

Ah!

I want to have a taste!

An Yi Xian had no desire to have children; after becoming a God Hunter, she didn’t even want to marry because it was too hard to find a husband who was both likable and well-matched.

Better to stay single and play as she pleased.

Money was not an issue!

Lin Baici didn’t know how to respond. If he wasn’t proctoring the exam, he’d have found an excuse to slip away by now.

Xia Hongyao, why are you so serious?

Don’t you see I’m being targeted?

Come and save me quickly!

High Ponytail turned around and caught Lin Baici’s eye, then she gestured an OK sign.

The two of you keep slacking off,

I can handle this by myself!

"Red Medicine’s so great, I like her. What’s the deal with you?" An Yi Xian asked curiously, "Worried that Director Xia would kill you?"

Without waiting for Lin Baici’s answer, An Yi Xian nodded in agreement, "Given Director Xia’s temperament, killing you would be letting you off lightly. You’d probably be contaminated ten or eight times, ruined, driven mad, then healed only to be contaminated again!"

"Sister Xian, stop!" Lin Baici grimaced, feeling increasingly scared by the continuation of this line of conversation.

With Xia Hongmian’s abilities and status, she could easily pull off such stuff.

It seemed that being High Ponytail’s boyfriend was a highly hazardous job.

"Hey, for real, want to grab a drink after the exam is over?" An Yi Xian invited, not out of romantic interest, but seeking to build a rapport.

Lin Baici was likely to do well in the future, so making a connection now was just good planning.

"Sure!" Lin Baici replied noncommittally, having spotted a pair of Dragon twins wearing matching outfits, their faces filled with anxiety as they scanned the clutter for Taboo Things.

Gurgle!

Lin Baici was hungry, which meant there was something good nearby, but he just rubbed his stomach and thought no more of it.
