Not only Ma Fei Hong was dumbfounded, even those around Gao Lan Mei who heard what she said. Lou Ren: "..."
s.h.i.+zi Empire Citizens: "..."
Sung Zhi Ruo: "..."
Aside from Wei Jiayi who only chuckled to his wife"s risky demand.
"You"re joking right?" Ma Fei Hong asked. Even though the barrier that they have is useless, it is still useful for them since it mostly stops the smoke to fully enter.
If they removed the barrier, it will not only allow the black smoke to enter and spread full blast, it will also give way to the YinYings!
"I can be joking. Still, I want the barrier down immediately." Gao Lan Mei repeated firmly.
"Merchant Lan, are we going to set up your barrier after? Why not set it up first now?" Lou Ren asked nervously.
"I cannot. You are wasting time. Deacon Ma, decide." Gao Lan Mei stated, before sitting on the nearest chair and whispered, "Jiayi, I am hungry…"
Wei Jiayi smiled, "Here, I have biscuits from Universe M. Want to try?" He said showing her a purple pouch, after opening it, biscuits that has strawberry scent appeared.
Gao Lan Mei"s eyes brightened, before nodding, "This is good!" then she said happily after taking a bite on one of the biscuits. "Do you have some more of these?" She asked sounding hopeful.
"Not the strawberry one. If you want that, I order that for you. For now, do you want to try the one that has a coconut flavor?" Wei Jiayi asked dotingly not minding everyone else that looks at them with a glare. In his eyes, only his wife"s happiness matters.
"Oh! This is good too! I want more! I want to try other flavors too." Gao Lan Mei merrily said as she looks at Wei Jiayi brightly.
"This…" Lou Ren helplessly looked at the couple who acts like there is no calamity in the s.h.i.+zi Empire. "Master…"
"Gao-Merchant Lan! Wei Jiayi! What is the meaning of this?!" Ma Fei Hong exclaimed.
"Eh? Can"t I eat? I can bet that you deciding will take a while." Gao Lan Mei stated after shrugging her shoulder and continue enjoying her biscuits, now with chocolate flavor. She is now in a good mood, feeling better.
What can she do? Gao Lan Mei is already so tired. Forcing the remaining spiritual energy from the stones may injure the spirit fragments.
It is either she makes use of the experts to manage the magical circle or she extracts spiritual energy from somewhere else.
Regardless of what option she makes, it is necessary to take down the barrier.
Everyone, including Ma Fei Hong, could feel better if all these plans inside Gao Lan Mei"s head are laid out.
However, Gao Lan Mei being unsocial does not feel that their opinion matters since her request must be done regardless.
"You understand your request means right?" Ma Fei Hong asked darkly.
"Yes." Gao Lan Mei responded nonchalantly. The sooner Ma Fei Hong decide, the better. Though she prefers to enjoy her biscuits as well.
"We will prepare for it immediately ones the wall is down." Sung Zhi Ruo advised with a strange smile after releasing a minted scent smoke from her mouth.
She gave Sung Zhi Ruo before asking, "How long do we keep the barrier down?" She has been gambling since earlier. There is really nothing wrong to continue doing so.
Ma Fei Hong is confident with Gao Lan Mei capabilities. Her defense wall inside the safety chambers is proof of that.
She wants to really ask more but Ma Fei Hong knows that they are running out of time.
"No need. You can start playing after it"s down."
