My Virtual Immortal Girlfriend Came to Life from a Mobile Game-Chapter 73 – This can’t be the real talisman, right?

**[Good stuff! Absolutely good stuff!]**

Muscle Dominator stared intently at the box.

It had a feeling that as long as it consumed the contents of the box, its power would skyrocket. Then, even when facing human metal boxes, it could swallow and refine them in an instant!

Had this boss finally decided to give it something tasty after feeding it 'crap' for so many days?

Chen Huaian opened the box with scissors.

As he expected, inside the box was a plant, and another box contained a pot with multicolored soil. He planted the plant in the pot and placed it on the windowsill, staring at it for a while. Still not satisfied, he took out his phone to scan it with a recognition app.

The result came quickly:

[Grass—a type of plant.]

Seriously, buddy?

It's just an ordinary piece of grass?

Chen Huaian was speechless.

The game developers really lacked sincerity. How much does it cost to buy a pot of orchids these days? Sending over a dirty pot of grass seemed a bit too perfunctory!

And the soil too.

It looked like industrial pollution with its multicolored mess, not appealing at all.

He then noticed there was something else in the box. He pulled out a talisman sealed in a bag, along with an instruction sheet.

[Purple Sky Divine Thunder Talisman: Please attach this talisman to the pot to protect the Nine-Turn Spirit Orchid, preventing it from being eaten by greedy demonic beasts.]

Chen Huaian: "..."

Greedy demonic beasts, really?

There were only mosquitoes and a silly cat in his room.

Forget it, he thought, just treat it as a decoration.

Even though it had a piece of grass inside, the pot engraved with heavenly palaces and auspicious clouds was quite nice.

He took out the talisman and stuck it on the pot.

With the talisman on it, the pot with the wilting grass looked quite bizarre from a distance. It wasn't something a normal person would do.

In the game, Li Qingran was circling the bed with clothes in her arms, and seeing there was nothing else to do, Chen Huaian logged out.

After being busy for so long, he hadn't even had breakfast.

He planned to eat breakfast and then practice swordsmanship at the square, wondering if the Old Man would be there today.

...

While Chen Huaian was making breakfast.

Muscle Dominator sneaked up to the Nine-Turn Spirit Orchid.

The closer it got, the denser the spiritual energy emanating from it.

[How could such a spiritual herb be born in this era of thin spiritual energy? Where did this boss get it from...]

It stared at the Nine-Turn Spirit Orchid, puzzled.

But it didn't matter; it wouldn't affect its consumption.

It moved a bit closer, greedily swallowing its saliva.

Suddenly, crackle—!

With the sound of electric arcs, a terrifying oppressive aura hung overhead, scaring it into a hasty retreat to the sofa.

Only then did Muscle Dominator notice the yellow paper stuck to the side of the pot.

It was a talisman.

And a more terrifying one than those on the doors and windows.

If it dared to touch the pot.

It would die instantly!

As it retreated to a safe distance, the thunder that had overflowed from the talisman also retracted.

[Heh... I was too naive.]

Muscle Dominator looked at the spirit herb protected by the thunder talisman, tilting its head back at a 45-degree angle towards the sky.

[How could such good stuff be given to this beast by the boss?]

Shaking its head in self-mockery, it continued gnawing on the unfinished Cao's Black Duck.

No matter what, as long as this spirit herb was around, it could soon create an area suitable for cultivation.

By then, everything in the room would be infused with spiritual energy.

Ordinary rice would become spiritual rice, Cao's Black Duck would become spiritual black duck, and even a fish kept long enough could gain sentience! In this way, although it was still eating crap, it had at least upgraded to crap-flavored chocolate.

Muscle Dominator comforted itself this way, eating more and more happily.

...

[Wild wolves spotted at Heavenly Gate Mountain! To ensure the safety of tourists, relevant authorities have intervened.]

While scrolling through TikTok, a news short video caught Chen Huaian's attention.

[Regarding such a large wild wolf, let's see what our experts have to say.]

"Hello everyone, I'm Professor Wang, an honorary fellow of the Canine Department at C Province Agricultural University. The wild wolf that appeared at Heavenly Gate Mountain is huge, and many friends even speculate if it's a monster? Hahaha, everyone, please don't believe in such unfounded things. This wild wolf is actually a mutated creature that drank polluted seawater. It looks big, but its body coordination is poor, and its aggressiveness is much lower than that of a normal wild wolf...]

Chen Huaian watched the white-haired old man in the video talking nonsense with a straight face, his mouth twitching.

Low aggressiveness, my foot.

Low aggressiveness, yet it tore apart a van like a toy?

However, in the past decade, many mutated creatures had indeed appeared, mainly due to an outrageous event that happened ten years ago. Back then, many people didn't care until the harm caused by seawater pollution gradually became apparent.

Mutated creatures were one of the consequences.

Previously, it was rumored that the chickens used in the food industry were multi-legged and multi-winged, which might have been a joke, but now chickens with three or even five heads had indeed appeared.

Once, multi-headed chickens only appeared in laboratories, but now they occasionally popped up in farms.

Moreover, these mutated multi-headed chickens not only didn't die young but also had longer lifespans, with each head having its own thoughts, often leading to mutual attacks.

As the saying goes, rarity increases value.

Even though the safety of multi-headed chickens hadn't been confirmed, some places had already made eating them a trend, and some farms had even started actively breeding them.

Chen Huaian, like most ordinary people.

Believed that mutated creatures would inevitably pose a threat to humanity.

It's just that mutated creatures were still within control, able to be killed by bullets. When they mutated further to the point where they couldn't be killed by artillery, the truth would probably be completely covered up.

Chen Huaian thought that he probably wouldn't live to see that day.

After all, he wouldn't survive this year.

Once he was gone, who cared if there was a flood?

[At that time, luckily, the girl arrived quickly, pulled out a gun, and shot the wolf dead! Also, I want to complain about the San Guang van; its quality is really poor. Just closing the door a bit forcefully, and the door fell off...]

[What? You say it was a young-looking female guard? I see, no wonder she had a gun. I thought she was a high school student, hahaha, hahaha...]

"Oh, isn't that Director Zhang?"

The scene shifted, and Chen Huaian saw a middle-aged man being interviewed by a reporter, grinning foolishly.

[The other wolf was struck by lightning, thank heavens. If it hadn't been struck, the other three people in the crew might have been in grave danger.]

Several pictures of lightning craters popped up, with the mutated wolf already charred by the lightning.

And as Chen Huaian was shoveling food into his mouth, he suddenly paused.

Looking at the lightning crater, he finally realized something was off.

The thunder he heard at the time, the familiar lightning crater, and the missing Thunderfire Talisman...

He rummaged through his jacket and pulled out a few crumpled Thunderfire Talismans, staring blankly at the vermilion characters on them.

He carefully placed the seven talismans on the coffee table.

Then cautiously poked them twice with his finger.

After a while, he muttered in a daze, "Damn it, could these be real talismans?"
