I deliver food in a bizarre world

Chapter 79 The Beginning of the Team

"Can...can it talk?" Chen Xing asked softly.

"Yes," Chen Mo replied, "but it's used to communicating directly with its mind."

Just then, another semi-transparent figure floated out from the corner.

"Hey, Xingdi's back!" Zhao Tianyi greeted Chen Xing with a grin.

"Holy crap, who is this?!" Chen Xing was completely dumbfounded.

Zhao Tianyi knows Chen Xing, but Chen Xing does not know Zhao Tianyi...

"Your brother is my benefactor, so I'm staying to help him, which is like selling myself to pay off my debt."

Chen Mo was speechless: "Go away! What do you mean by selling yourself to pay off debts!"

Chen Mo gave a brief introduction to Zhao Tianyi, and Chen Xing nodded somewhat blankly.

My brother is becoming more and more mysterious to me. He's only been gone for a week, and he's already done so much.

Chen Xing asked curiously, "Are they powerful?"

Zhao Tianyi immediately fell silent, while Chen Mo burst into laughter.

"Xiao Jing's abilities mainly lie in mirror images and space; her direct combat ability is average."

He looked at Xiao Jing and said, "Show him, but don't scare him."

Xiao Jing nodded slightly, raised her hand, and pointed it at the blank wall in the living room.

The next moment, the surface of the wall rippled like water, then gradually became transparent, as if the wall had turned into a giant one-way window.

Through the wall, Chen Mo and Chen Xing could see the buildings opposite and even the cars coming and going on the street in the distance.

"Wow!" Chen Xing exclaimed, his mouth agape. He couldn't help but walk to the wall and reach out to touch it.

His hand still touched the solid wall, but the scene before him remained unchanged.

"This is just a basic mirror projection." Xiao Jing's voice rang in Chen Mo and Chen Xing's minds at the same time. "I can warp space a short distance, create visual errors, and also briefly pull objects or living beings into the mirror space."

Chen Xing withdrew his hand, his face full of amazement: "Isn't that amazing enough? This is practically a superpower!"

He turned to Chen Mo, his eyes eager: "Brother, can I touch it?"

Chen Mo frowned: "It's not some pet. I can't even beat it. Show some respect. If it beats you up, I won't be responsible!"

"Just one touch, just one!" Chen Xing pleaded.

Chen Mo looked at Xiao Jing.

Xiao Jing nodded; he was also very curious about Chen Xing.

Chen Xing carefully extended his finger and gently touched Xiao Jing's arm.

It felt cold to the touch and was very hard, unlike flesh and blood.

"It's cold..." Chen Xing muttered as he withdrew his hand.

"I am a spiritual aggregate, an energy structure, and I do not have the body temperature of a normal living being," Xiao Jing explained.

Chen Xing nodded as if he understood, then asked, "So you'll be living inside my brother's body from now on?"

"My core dwells in his shadow, and can materialize when necessary, or appear through any mirror."

Zhao Tianyi floated over and interjected, "Brother Xing, with it around, your brother will be even safer. If we can't win, we can hide in the mirror, right, Brother Mirror?"

Xiao Jing did not respond to Zhao Tianyi's teasing, but simply stood quietly.

"Cool!" That was all Chen Xing could think of. "If it were me, could I skip class?"

"You wish!" Chen Mo refused without hesitation. "Then he'll have to go out and deliver the food for me!"

"Your job isn't exactly a regular one where you have to clock in and out every day, so it doesn't really make a difference whether you go or not!"

Looking at his excited younger brother and the two new members of the family, Chen Mo felt a mix of emotions.

Although the number has increased, the room still feels chilly and eerily cold...

It seems like finding a girlfriend is getting harder...

He ruffled Chen Xing's hair: "Alright, stop being so curious, go cook some noodles, I'm hungry."

Chen Mo's left hand was bandaged, so he couldn't cook; Chen Xing had to do it.

Chen Xing finally snapped out of his excitement, responded, glanced at the small mirror a few more times with reluctance, and then ran to the kitchen.

Zhao Tianyi also yawned and retracted the Spirit-Nourishing Pot.

Chen Mo and Xiao Jing were left alone in the living room again.

Xiao Jing's figure gradually faded, eventually merging into the shadow beneath his feet like ink and disappearing completely.

Chen Mo looked calmly at the shadow that had returned to normal at his feet.

The team is basically complete, with scouts, defenders, and utility specialists, while he and Chen Xing are still developing...

Chen Xing was busy in the kitchen, clattering and humming a tuneless song, clearly still immersed in the shock and excitement of what had just happened.

Chen Mo walked to the kitchen doorway, leaned against the door frame, and watched his younger brother's busy figure.

"Little Star," he said.

"Huh? Brother, what's wrong?" Chen Xing turned around, still holding chopsticks in his hand.

"Don't gossip about Xiao Jing or me outside," Chen Mo said sternly.

"These things are not yet at the point of being completely made public."

Moreover, once the app becomes widespread, who knows how chaotic things will become? I need to use this time to accumulate more experience and knowledge.

"I know, I know, I'm not stupid." Chen Xing nodded repeatedly. "Dad told me a long time ago that I can't talk about these things everywhere, so when my classmates ask me, I always say I don't know."

Chen Mo hummed in agreement, feeling slightly relieved.

Although his younger brother is unruly, he still knows his limits.

"Brother," Chen Xing asked again while cooking, "So what are you planning to do next? Are you taking Xiao Jing on an even more challenging mission? Can you take me with you?"

"You should focus on your studies and finish learning the basics first," Chen Mo interrupted his daydream. "If possible, keep Xiao Jing out of the public eye for now."

"The Mirror Hotel incident has caused too much of a stir. If someone is worried and insists on getting rid of him, I won't be able to do anything about it..."

"I'll take you on some easy tasks later. Remember the task I told you about before? We'll go do it after dinner tonight."

"Okay..." Chen Xing was about to finish speaking when he remembered Chen Mo's bandaged hand, "But is your hand alright?"

"It's alright, it's already scabbed over. That mission wasn't difficult, and besides, you were there, so you must have learned quite a bit by now, right?"

"Um!"

After finishing the meal, Chen Xing quickly cleaned up the dishes and wiped the table clean, his eyes constantly glancing at Chen Mo with anticipation.

Chen Mo took out his live-streaming phone and turned it on.

"Family, I have a job tonight. I'll take you all to see it." He waved to the camera.

The number of viewers in the live stream skyrocketed instantly.

[Here they come! Good evening, Brother Mo! Good evening, Brother Xing!]

[Support Brother Mo in suing those bastards to death!]

[You just finished one job at noon, and now you're back again tonight?]

What kind of crazy thing are they up to tonight? Huh? Are they taking Xingdi along?

[Xingdi's here too! Did you know your brother has started cultivating immortality?]

[Brother Mo, where did you find your swordsmanship coach? I want to learn too!]

[Case solved! Brother Mo is from Kuanglan! His sect's swordsmanship!]

[Did Mo really defeat the Mirror Spirit this afternoon? Waaaa, I'm too late, I didn't see anything!]

[The polling office was involved, so it can't be fake, right?]
