National Development: I Build a Base on the Rock Beast

Chapter 64 The Duan Family's First Dinner

"How far is it from us?"

The two short whiskers on the insect girl's head shook twice, as if calculating the approximate distance.

"At my fastest speed, it will take about a month to go back and forth."

One month? Although the Cheng family has not made any moves yet, I believe they will not give up. Although the insect girl is not strong in combat, she has high mobility and can produce worker bees. Without her, the combat power will be greatly affected.

"If I don't agree to your request, will you blame me?"

Hearing Duan Ming's question, the two short whiskers of the insect girl obviously wilted a little.

"Master, I will listen to you!"

Duan Ming smiled and raised his hand to fiddle with the short whiskers twice.

"I can promise you, but I have one condition."

The insect girl's face immediately regained joy and asked, "What's the request!"

Duan Ming's mouth corners slightly raised: "It's very simple, eat this dinner before leaving."

...

At 6:30 pm on Earth, Duan Ming and others sat in a circle in the restaurant on the first floor of the villa, looking at the more than a dozen delicious dishes on the table, swallowing saliva one after another.

"Since everyone has followed me, they have either been fighting or on the way to fight. This is the first time we have gathered together for a meal without distraction."

Before the meal started, Duan Ming, as the leader of the team, made a speech as it should.

"You appeared when I, Duan Ming, was in the most difficult time. I can't get to where I am today without each of you. I know I don't have much ability. This first glass of wine, thank you all!"

After that, Duan Ming stood up, raised the glass in front of him, and drank it all.

"This second cup of wine is a promise I made to everyone. I know everyone has some friends who want to join our Duan family. Please give me two more months. After two months, the Duan family will recruit the first batch of people!"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes flashed. The family's new members also represent the family's growth. No one does not hope that their family can become stronger and stronger!

"This third cup of wine is for the insect girl to see off."

Speaking of this, Duan Ming turned his head to look at the insect girl standing behind him. She is not a human being and does not need to rely on food intake to replenish the energy needed by the body. Every time everyone eats, she insists on standing behind Duan Ming and "serving tea and water" for Duan Ming.

"Everything is unknown on this trip. I have only one request for you, you must come back safely!"

Hearing Duan Ming's words, the insect girl's eyes flashed with tears for the first time. She also felt the emotion called touching among humans for the first time.

"Reminder! The trust value of the Zerg development base is full. Do you want to remove the absolute obedience skill?"

The cold reminder sound of the biological contract system sounded in Duan Ming's mind. Duan Ming was stunned and checked the information of the Zerg girl.

Interstellar creature: Zerg development base, scientific research.

Current level: Level 5.

Experience value: 2356 points/10000 points.

Body length: 4.1m/41m can switch forms.

Skills: Zerg communication range.

Trust value: 200/100 (full).

Talents: Appearance change, emotion simulation, worker hive primary, exploration module.

Unexpectedly, the trust value of the Zerg girl, who had been trying to get out of Duan Ming's contract at the beginning, has reached 100%!

In this way, even if Duan Ming removes the absolute obedience skill, he can rest assured that the Zerg girl will temporarily leave his side!

After thinking for a while, Duan Ming gave the order.

"Take off the absolute obedience skill and install it on the ice crystal beast!"

After all, the ice crystal beast was a star beast that Duan Ming contracted halfway. Its current trust value had just reached the passing level. Installing the absolute obedience skill also solved the potential hidden dangers.

"Master, don't worry, I will definitely come back safely!"

As she said this, the insect girl suddenly threw herself into Duan Ming's arms and burst into tears. Tears slid from her eyes. Unlike human tears, the insect girl's tears turned into transparent crystals before they fell to the ground, which looked a bit like diamonds.

Another chair was added, and the insect girl sat next to Duan Ming. Duan Ming didn't notice that the look the insect girl gave him was a little different from before, as if the feelings in it were richer...

The party officially started, and everyone drank and laughed. The atmosphere was extremely harmonious, as if this was not the universe at all, but a warm home on Earth.

That night, everyone drank a lot of wine, and Duan Ming didn't know when he fell asleep drunk.

“Ouch! Wine is indeed a good thing, but drinking too much will really hurt your head!”

Duan Ming, who woke up at noon the next day, raised his hand to rub his temple and muttered to himself.

Sitting up, Duan Ming slowly opened his eyes, and the next moment, he was stunned on the bed!

Beside him, there was another person lying, the whole body of this person was covered in the quilt, only the long hair exposed outside reminded Duan Ming something.

Lifting the quilt, seeing that he was naked, Duan Ming knew that something had happened!

Duan Ming walked out of the room quietly and came to the bathroom, where Bai Xianglu happened to be washing up.

"Someone has done something bad, so he must be responsible for it!"

Bai Xianglu said casually, and then left the bathroom, leaving Duan Ming alone with his head soaked in cold water.

Duan Ming raised his head from the cold water when his breathing reached the limit of endurance, and looked at himself in the mirror. He frowned first, and then a smile appeared on his face.

...

At one o'clock in the afternoon, everyone had returned to their development bases. Duan Ming lay on the rocking chair, and Tang Yaqing sat on the armrest of the rocking chair with a shy face.

"Yaqing, wait a while, and bring your grandfather and others over."

These days, the Cheng family has carried out large-scale economic targeting on the Tang family, and the Tang family is almost unable to support it.

Now that he and Tang Yaqing have made substantial progress, Duan Ming must consider the Tang family.

Tang Yaqing smiled and nodded: "I'll listen to you."

After that, Tang Yaqing got up and went to the mineral compressor to help Bai Xianglu sort out the compressed metal.

The voice call request rang, Duan Ming turned on the call system, and it was Captain Lin Dengwan's number.

The voice was connected, and Captain Lin Dengwan's voice came from the other side.

"Duan Ming, send your coordinates, Colonel Gu Li wants to see you."

Compared to the previous commanding tone of Lin Dengwan, this time it was obviously much more polite.

Getting up and walking to the interstellar computer, Duan Ming sent the coordinates of the Fire Rock Beast to Lin Dengwan.

"We will be there tomorrow morning."

After the voice call was hung up, Duan Ming began to think about the purpose of the military and government's visit this time.

Before he fought with the main fleet of the Yu family, the military and government had come to him once. Duan Ming still remembered that Colonel Gu Li made a promise to him at that time.

No matter what the purpose of the military and government this time, Duan Ming already has chips in his hands!
