The Strongest Sentinel (8): He obviously doesn’t plan to fall in love, so what is he thinking about now?

The Undercity was a place with a particularly large wealth gap, which was vividly reflected in the food.

Humans ate mutated beasts or mutated plants. Common mutated beasts like the locust beast usually sold for fifty credit points per pound.

Previously, Mother Gu made locust meat for Gu Juntian.

After these mutated beasts were cut into good meat, the leftover scraps, meat with poor texture, and entrails were sent to the food processing plant, where they were mixed with the by-products of the mutated plants to make nutritious meals.

Some unappetizing mutated beasts were also directly made into nutritional meals.

The powerful elite certainly wouldn’t eat nutritional meals; they didn’t even eat ordinary beast meat, only the delicious, precious, or high-grade beasts.

Such mutated beasts could only be hunted by high-level sentinels, so naturally, the prices skyrocketed.

What Gu Juntian packed was the meat of a mutated pig. The mutated pig had rough skin, thick meat, horns on its head, and a massive body. It was a B-grade mutant beast, and its meat sold for at least two hundred credit points per pound.

If it weren’t for the fact that these mutated beasts yield a lot of meat, the price would be even higher.

Just finished packing ten pounds of mutated beast meat, Gu Juntian received a message from Zhou Qinghao, asking him to come over in the evening.

Zhou Qinghao even transferred another million to him!

In just two days, Zhou Qinghao had already given him four million.

What did Zhou Qinghao take him for? Asking him to come over at night and even giving him money.

This matter must be noted down; in the future, he would also make Zhou Qinghao experience it!

Gu Juntian thought this, perfunctorily replied to Liang Xia a few words, and then returned to school.

When he first crossed over, he was determined to keep his distance from Liang Xia.

If Zhou Qinghao found out that he had an affair with Liang Xia, a hundred of him wouldn’t be enough for Zhou Qinghao to kill.

But now the situation had changed.

A month later, he would become a guide.

Ordinary people in this world still cared about gender; generally, it was men and women who got married.

But once awakened as a Sentinel or Guide, gender no longer mattered.

Everyone thought that sentinels and guides were a match made in heaven.

Sentinels being together, or guides being together, was utterly heretical!

The original owner was indeed very attentive to Liang Xia. Their previous chat records looked very ambiguous, and the original owner kept sending gifts to Liang Xia, which was an obvious pursuit.

But that was based on the premise that the original owner was a sentinel.

If the original owner was a guide, the situation would be different.

What was wrong with guides exchanging sweet words?

Those sentinels usually chat with much fewer restrictions than his conversations with Liang Xia!

Realizing this, Gu Juntian no longer avoided Liang Xia.

Liang Xia wanted to get information about Zhou Qinghao from him, and he also wanted to get information about the governor faction from Liang Xia.

In fact, after chatting with Liang Xia today and combining it with the books he read over the past two days, he came to know one thing.

The current guides didn’t really know how to use their own mental power.

Liang Xia’s parents were both civilians from the outer city. After he awakened as a Guide, he was brought to the inner city and lived in the Guide School.

The school would teach them how to use mental power, but the methods taught by the school for using mental power were all unrelated to combat.

What Liang Xia had always learned was how to use mental power to soothe sentinels.

They were also indoctrinated with ideas such as guides being very delicate and sentinels needing to pamper guides, so that the vast majority of guides only wanted to marry a powerful sentinel with authority and then spend their days soothing their partner’s mental state and raising children.

The people of the ruling faction were just nurturing useless guides.

After Gu Juntian entered the school, he continued to read and study.

After he finished all his classes, the turbulent spiritual sea finally calmed down.

There were still many sentinels, so there were many facilities specifically for their use, such as dedicated shower rooms.

Gu Juntian took a shower to wash off the various unpleasant smells from his body, and only then did he take the mutated pig’s meat to find Zhou Qinghao.

Before Gu Juntian entered, Zhou Qinghao had already noticed him.

His keen senses began to automatically capture Gu Juntian’s information.

Now, he was like a beast about to hunt.

From a distance, he spotted the “prey” and even discerned its general condition through the scent on the “prey.”

This was the instinct of a sentinel. When in the wild, before the strange beasts even approached, an experienced sentinel already knew what kind of beast it was and whether they could handle it.

In the base, they ould also discern the physical condition of others from a distance.

Gu Juntian was very healthy; he had just taken a shower and was feeling clean all over. From his footsteps and breathing, he didn’t seem to feel any danger at all…

Sitting alone in his dark bedroom, Zhou Qinghao remained motionless, desperately wanting to suddenly rush out and drag Gu Juntian back to his bedroom.

On Gu Juntian, there was no trace of the guide’s scent, but on the cooler he was carrying, there was the guide’s smell.

Other sentinels couldn’t pick up such subtle information, but he could.

The contents of that refrigerator were still the meat that Gu Juntian and that guide had for lunch.

Zhou Qinghao rested well last night, so his condition today was better than before.

But not much better.

His spiritual sea was about to collapse; this couldn’t be fixed with just a few nights of sleep.

And now, his spiritual sea had returned to how it was before.

A powerful mental force was raging and flying wildly in his spiritual sea, and all sorts of terrifying thoughts were surging in his mind.

Zhou Qinghao quietly went out and saw Gu Juntian smile at him once again, and it was such a beautiful smile that it made his heart race.

Gu Juntian clearly didn’t like him, yet he kept acting as if he loved him, and his methods were getting more and more sophisticated.

In the past, Gu Juntian’s smile wasn’t this pleasant; he would even be afraid when facing him.

Gu Juntian was not afraid of him now, but when he saw him, his muscles would instinctively tense up, blood flow would speed up, and his heart would race. These were reactions some people have before a fight.

Zhou Qinghao made an effort to suppress his own senses and focused solely on feeling Gu Juntian as a person.

He needed to control himself; he couldn’t let Gu Juntian know the terrible thoughts in his mind.

When Gu Juntian saw Zhou Qinghao, he felt like he was looking at a fierce beast.

Dangerous, but it excited him.

He just liked ferocious beasts!

As for being afraid? Although his current strength was far inferior to Zhou Qinghao’s, he was not afraid at all. He actually found his reaction strange and ultimately attributed it to Zhou Qinghao being infatuated, so he couldn’t be scared.

In the original plot, Zhou Qinghao later found out that the original character didn’t like him but liked Liang Xia.

Even after all this, he was still willing to sacrifice himself to save the original owner!

Gu Juntian got angry just thinking about this matter.

The two were too close to each other, and Zhou Qinghao could tell that Gu Juntian was a bit angry through his body language.

Was it that he didn’t want to see him?

However, even if Gu Juntian didn’t want to see him, he had to stay with him.

“Qinghao, I’m going to cook! I brought some mutated pig meat today, let’s eat together,” Gu Juntian said.

Zhou Qinghao wanted to tear apart the cooler that Gu Juntian was holding, but if he did that and scared Gu Juntian, Gu Juntian might leave him immediately.

“Okay.” Zhou Qinghao controlled himself and replied lightly.

Gu Juntian entered the kitchen and began to process the ten pounds of meat separately.

A portion was used for roasting; the sentinel’s keen sense of smell allowed him to cook the meat to perfection.

A portion was used for frying, and after adding a special mutated plant, the meat would emit a delicious aroma.

In the final part, he made soup.

This was what he learned from the restaurant at noon today. He thought it tasted great this way, and Zhou Qinghao should like it too?

Zhou Qinghao didn’t like it at all.

Gu Juntian had lunch with the guide and spent the evening with him. What did he take him for?

An ATM?

The money Gu Juntian used to treat the guide to a meal was most likely given by him. Thinking about this, Zhou Qinghao couldn’t help but feel a bit pathetic.

But this was the meat that Gu Juntian made. If he didn’t eat it now, he might not get to eat it in the future.

Zhou Qinghao picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it as he kept staring at Gu Juntian.

He really wanted to take a bite out of Gu Juntian right now.

Gu Juntian felt a bit uncomfortable being looked at by Zhou Qinghao.

Zhou Qinghao’s gaze was way too passionate!

Wait, last night they just slept together, but today, Zhou Qinghao wouldn’t want to do something to him, would he?

With Zhou Qinghao looking like this, he clearly wanted to eat him!

This wouldn’t do, the progress was too fast, and now when he faced Zhou Qinghao, he had no power to resist, this was not good…

Gu Juntian took a deep breath, feeling it was time to talk about something else with Zhou Qinghao: “Qinghao, I have something I want to ask you.”

“What’s the matter?” Zhou Qinghao asked.

Gu Juntian said, “My mom is at home with nothing to do. Can you arrange a job for her? When I was working part-time before, I found that there were some ordinary people over at the military camp…”

The soldiers under Zhou Qinghao had dedicated garrison points.

It was even larger than the neighborhood where the original owner lived. The layout was quite similar, just a vast expanse of tall, densely packed, and neatly arranged houses.

There were many sentinels living there, but there were also some ordinary people who served the sentinels.

Gu Juntian was a bit worried about his mother’s safety; he thought there was no place safer than there.

Moreover, the ordinary people working there were basically relatives of the soldiers under Zhou Qinghao. If Zhou Qinghao were to take people away from Base One, he would definitely not leave them behind.

This was a small matter for Zhou Qinghao, and he readily agreed: “Sure.”

“Thank you.” Gu Juntian smiled again.

Zhou Qinghao swallowed.

Gu Juntian’s smile was really beautiful.

He hoped Gu Juntian would always smile at him like this.

But this should be very difficult.

After Gu Juntian took his last bite of meat, Zhou Qinghao, just like yesterday, picked him up and carried him into the bedroom.

Gu Juntian made another entry in his mental ledger.

He had to double everything back, Zhou Qinghao was waiting for him!

Gu Juntian didn’t struggle today, which made Zhou Qinghao very pleased.

He threw Gu Juntian onto the bed once again, then buried his head in Gu Juntian’s neck, inhaling Gu Juntian’s scent.

Gu Juntian’s scent was very pleasant. As he inhaled it, he noticed that the speed of the blood rushing to his brain had increased.

Zhou Qinghao kind of wanted to take a bite.

Of course, he ultimately didn’t do that, he just took a lick.

Gu Juntian was indeed a bit overly passionate.

Zhou Qinghao’s appearance perfectly matched his aesthetic, and Zhou Qinghao was so enthusiastic…

Yesterday, the incident happened suddenly, and since he had been exhausting his mental power the night before, he didn’t have much thought about it. But at this moment…

If it weren’t for Zhou Qinghao holding him tightly, rendering his hands immobile, he would have definitely gone to hug Zhou Qinghao!

As a result, Zhou Qinghao actually licked him! Licked him!

This was too foul, who could stand it?

Gu Juntian’s entire body was tense, every part of him was rigid.

As a sentinel with particularly strong perception, Zhou Qinghao discovered the situation immediately.

Gu Juntian actually had feelings for him!

Alright, Gu Juntian might act like this, probably because men, especially male sentinels, couldn’t resist provocation.

Their senses were too sharp.

“Let go of me…” Gu Juntian wanted Zhou Qinghao to let go of him, otherwise… it would actually be quite embarrassing.

It was better for both of them to relax a bit and calm down first.

Zhou Qinghao didn’t want to hear Gu Juntian say such things, and he was also afraid Gu Juntian would say something even worse. He covered Gu Juntian’s mouth with his lips, preventing him from speaking, but his hands didn’t loosen at all.

Gu Juntian was imprisoned, feeling utterly helpless.

What kind of torture was this! Zhou Qinghao made him feel like he was on fire all over, and then wouldn’t let him move!

Forget it, this was fine too.

Right now, he couldn’t suppress Zhou Qinghao, but once he became stronger and became a Guide, he would be able to control Zhou Qinghao’s senses to a certain extent.

At that time, he would tease Zhou Qinghao and then not let Zhou Qinghao move!

Wait, his idea was getting more and more wrong.

He clearly didn’t plan on falling in love, so what was he thinking about now?
