The Sedan Chair was faster than a regular car, taking less than ten minutes to bring Chen Miemie from the Red Leaf Auction House to the downstairs of his home.
As soon as the Sedan Chair landed, the voice of Road Rage echoed from beneath the earth:
"Sedan Chair, you're speeding on me again. If you keep doing this, I'm going to get angry."
One was a road, and the other was a vehicle that relied on the road's surface, yet the Sedan Chair wasn't intimidated in the slightest, throwing its weight around:
"Road Rage, I'm carrying the great Chen Miemie here. Do you really want the boss of our house to waste time on something as trivial as commuting?"
Road Rage wasn't good with words and was choked into silence by the retort.
It could already control its passive abilities, so when someone sped or there was a traffic jam, it wouldn't uncontrollably fly into a rage and cause earthquakes, but that didn't mean it wouldn't get mad.
"Alright, stop arguing. I'll think of a solution for you guys," Chen Miemie stepped up to say something fair.
"Road Rage, why don't you issue a special license plate for our own Sedan Chair and raise its speed limit standard a bit, like up to 120 kilometers per hour? That way, it won't count as speeding."
Chen Miemie was quite the clever little devil; he came up with a way to avoid speeding just like that.
"Oh, alright." The honest and simple Road Rage couldn't even outtalk the Sedan Chair, let alone do anything about the head of the household, Chen Miemie.
"By the way, did anything happen this afternoon?"
"No, just what I told Loop earlier. The South Lord Society drove a convoy out of the city this afternoon with a huge group of people."
"Good. When they come back, record the time and count to see if any vehicles are severely damaged or missing."
"Got it."
Chen Miemie returned home.
He casually tossed the coffin-like box containing the Lunar Phase Cheese onto the dining table.
The box landed not too far from Bobo, who was on the table.
Bobo had been preparing to volunteer itself so Chen Miemie would eat dinner early today.
Before it could jump off the table, the roast chicken's pineapple head turned toward the box, as if it had smelled some kind of aroma.
Wiggling its rear, it approached the box.
"Chen Miemie, what's inside this? Why does it have such a special aroma?"
"That's something I won at the auction house called the Lunar Phase Cheese. It's quite magical. It has one thing in common with you: no matter how much you eat, it never runs out."
Hearing this, Bobo, who initially thought the new fragrant thing wasn't bad, immediately treated it like a formidable enemy.
"Hmph, so what if it never runs out? Does it want to fight for my position in this house? I am a super roast chicken that has independently developed over twenty flavors. Having me for every meal on the dining table is more than enough!"
"Haha, nobody can steal your position, Bobo. This is just a mystical item. But when it comes to flavors, this Lunar Phase Cheese might not have fewer than you."
"How is that possible? Can it change its flavor or something?"
"This Lunar Phase Cheese is curved and hard during a new moon, and round and bursting with juice during a full moon. Its flavor changes every single day throughout the entire lunar cycle."
Bobo wasn't quite convinced. "Let me taste it. I want to see what's so great about it."
The pineapple roast chicken pulled out the knife and fork stuck in its own body, scraped fiercely at the Lunar Phase Cheese, carved off a large slice, and stuffed it into its roast chicken body.
Chen Miemie, Qinghua, and Loop were originally watching the spectacle from the side with amusement.
Unexpectedly, in the very next moment.
An unparalleled aroma emanated from the roast chicken.
The scent exploded in the room like a bomb.
Chen Miemie felt as if he had returned to the time he first met Bobo, forcefully compelled into a state of wanting to eat it.
Not just Chen Miemie, but even Loop's hands were itching to move, seemingly wanting to tear off a chicken leg and gnaw on it.
Qinghua had no reaction. She was a porcelain beauty with a different physiological structure; no matter how fragrant it was, it was useless against her.
Grabbing one in each hand, Qinghua lifted the nearly out-of-control Chen Miemie and Loop, pulling them away from the roast chicken.
"Bobo, what are you doing? Have you lost control of your passive ability again?"
Bobo was also confused. "No, this is my normal everyday aroma. I didn't turn on my ability to forcefully control people."
Pulled away from the dining table, Chen Miemie and Loop quickly broke free from the state of being controlled by the aroma.
If Bobo wasn't the problem, then the issue must lie with the Lunar Phase Cheese it had just eaten.
Loop was the first to propose a theory. "Can the Lunar Phase Cheese enhance Bobo's aroma?"
Bobo felt its own body. "It seems so. And I haven't even exerted any effort yet. If I did, I feel like I could make my aroma drift across the entire city right now."
Previously, at maximum power, Bobo could only spread its aroma across two or three streets.
Now, not only had the intensity of the aroma increased, but the range had also expanded by more than ten times.
"Can you feel any side effects?"
"Side effects? No. But there is a positive effect. I feel that smearing this cheese on me will make people love eating me even more."
Qinghua's eyes lit up. She clapped her hands, producing the crisp sound of colliding porcelain:
"I understand now. This is the side effect. For others, eating the Lunar Phase Cheese to enhance their aroma is completely useless, because other people don't have an aroma to begin with.
And generating the temptation of 'I smell so good, come kill me and eat me' to others is the side effect. It's just that for Bobo, this turns into a positive enhancement.
Chen Miemie, you really found a treasure this time. For Bobo, this Lunar Phase Cheese is simply its destined item."
Loop continued to add, "I'm afraid it's not just the aroma. Bobo's flavor, along with its ability to turn people into roast chickens, has probably also seen a massive increase in lethality. Let me take a bite and try."
Testing for poison naturally wouldn't be left to Chen Miemie. Loop didn't have much poison resistance, but she wasn't afraid of any poison—at worst, she would just loop once.
One bite of roast chicken went down her stomach.
Even with Loop's high Immortality stat of 7.6, her body was visibly and gradually turning into a roast chicken.
Her Immortality continuously wrestled with the roast chicken's mutating power. After holding on for about five minutes, the roast chicken still won.
It wasn't a complete victory, though.
Loop's entire body turned into a roast chicken, except for her pair of needle-like legs.
She had become a roast chicken pierced with two needles, with only half of its chicken legs.
Just when Chen Miemie and Qinghua thought this version of Loop was gone.
Bobo pointed at the needle-pierced roast chicken: "Recover."
Loop transformed from a roast chicken back into human form.
"This... this... Bobo, you have a new ability?"
The old Bobo was quite different from Qinghua.
Roast chickenification was irreversible, whereas Qinghua's porcelainification was reversible within 15 minutes.
Now, Bobo could actually reverse the mutation effect too.
"I feel like it's not a new ability. I could probably reverse it all along, but I just wasn't strong enough before. Now that I've been enhanced, I can finally use it."
After the test concluded, everyone was overjoyed.
A family member getting stronger meant the entire group getting stronger.
Chen Miemie announced, "Bobo, this Lunar Phase Cheese is yours. You have your own exclusive weapon from now on."
Bobo was incredibly happy: "Thanks, Miemie! I feel like there's still potential to be unlocked in this cheese. I reckon I'll be able to have even more flavors from now on!"
Bobo didn't care much about the power level of its abilities. What made it happy was that after being slathered in [Moon Phase Cheese], it had gained a new flavor. If it combined the ever-changing taste of the cheese with its previous variety of flavors, it even harbored the wild ambition of becoming a "Hundred-Flavor" roast chicken.
Just as Chen Miemie and her family were experimenting with the roast chicken and cheese, the [Archaeologist] Velar hurried over to Chen Miemie's home.
At the door of Room 1803, Velar knocked several times, but no one answered.
As he was about to head downstairs and leave, he ran into someone at the stairwell.
"I thought I heard you knocking on a door on the 18th floor. I live on the 19th and just happened to be passing by. Do you need something from my neighbor?" asked a smiling woman dressed in a nurse's uniform.
Velar glanced at the name tag still pinned to her clothes: "Nurse Zhao, East District Clinic."
Concealing all his emotions, he offered a gentlemanly smile. "Room 1803, Paradise Building. May I ask if Chen Miemie lives here?"
