Apocalypse Forecast

Only after enjoying the free massage to the fullest, the broken dog on the ground finally crawled up slowly, shook its body, and fluffed up its fur, while squeezing past those fans who still refused to let go, before lowering its head to grab the takeout box next to Huai Shi.

As it turned around, a pair of ice-blue eyes glanced at Huai Shi, shaking its dog head.

Which meant: Why are you just standing there, little bro? You should follow me!

Huai Shi’s expression twitched once, then again, and he began to wonder if anything could go wrong for shooting to death a dog trying to assault an Astronomical Society Military Officer in Rome.

The dog is so big now, it won’t fit in the stew pot.

There are so many children in Australia who don’t have enough to eat, why not just let it sacrifice a bit!

The broken dog seemed to guess what he was thinking, snorted disdainfully, grinned, revealing a mouthful of sharp metallic teeth, planning to butt heads with this annoying little brother.

Huai Shi rolled his eyes, already not wanting to interact with it anymore. It was oddly easy to understand a dog’s thoughts; he must be insane.

"It looks like you get along well with it."

A curious voice sounded beside him: "Is this what they call the attraction of opposites?"

When Huai Shi turned around in astonishment, he saw the person who had appeared beside him without him noticing, tilting her head and looking at him. She had unexpectedly cut her hair short to ear-length, which reflected the sunlight, displaying a slight sheen.

It illuminated those serene eyes.

Filled with joy.

She had her hands behind her back, smiling, waiting for his response.

For a long, long time, Huai Shi finally snapped back and couldn’t help but laugh.

"Long time no see, Fu Yi."

"Hasn’t it just been a few months?"

Fu Yi stretched out her hand, took the takeout box from the dog’s mouth, examined his appearance: "Have you had lunch?"

"Not yet."

"Then let’s have some together." She nodded, "I’ve ordered the very popular ham pizza, you must try it when you come to Rome."

As if she had already known that he would come.

She took out a duo-sized lunch from the box, steaming, fresh from the oven.

There was also a whole serving of hefty roasted beef leg, unsalted, still with blood, which the dog grabbed in its mouth and ran away wagging its tail.

"Lately it seems to have a girlfriend, it’s definitely eager to show off, just leave it be."

Fu Yi watched it run off into the distance, lowered her head, and laid out the tablecloth: "I waited for ages to get this spot, it’s the best view at Empire University."

Huai Shi sat on the stone bench, looking around, by the edge of the serene lake, surrounded by lush woods, a winding path extended into the distance, he could faintly see the auditorium and bell tower in the distance.

He hadn’t expected such a beautiful place to exist in Empire University.

Amidst a world of constant change, the city of Rome seemed to remain in a time gone by, refusing to appease the demands of modernization.

Immersed in its tranquility, one naturally felt a sense of peace and relaxation.

Even though takeout was ordered, Fu Yi barely touched hers, watching him as he ate, her joyful smile always made Huai Shi a bit uneasy.

"What’s the matter?" he asked.

"Finished eating?"

"Um, almost." Huai Shi nodded.

"Then, the important part comes—" She extended her hand, blinking her eyes, unabashedly revealing her expectations: "Did you bring a gift?"

"Uh..."

Huai Shi’s expression twitched, he felt guilty as he checked his satchel, taking out a box: "I was in quite a rush this time and only brought this."

"It doesn’t matter, take it out, show me quickly!"

Fu Yi raised her eyebrows delightedly, accepted the box, opened it... only to find another box inside.

After opening the box, yet another box was inside.

Her expression stiffened temporarily, she looked up, annoyed: "Are you playing nesting dolls with me?"

"...Doesn’t it feel grand this way!"

Huai Shi chuckled awkwardly, shrugged, and moved back slightly: "This is the last layer, open it and see, I especially picked it for you."

When the innermost paper box opened, after spanning thousands of miles, a specialty from Tanbo finally appeared at Empire University in Rome, displayed before Fu Yi.

It was a hefty stick, as thick as a wrist...

"An iron stick?"

Fu Yi’s smile twitched, slowly turning dangerous: "What is this?"

"I took this new product from the lab before departing, it can be considered a new alloy, its hardness and toughness are far superior to similar products outside. Additionally, it has the characteristic of Source Substance derivative properties, it can self-repair, even if it has a crack, sprinkle some iron powder on it after a while, it will grow back..."

Fu Yi sighed meaningfully, raised her hand to interrupt, straight to the point: "So, what is this thing for? To crack open your dog’s head?"

"Uh, a teeth grinding stick?" Huai Shi shrank his neck to explain, "Haven’t you been complaining all along that the dog keeps chewing things randomly? This can last a few months at least..."

No choice, he really left in a hurry.

Originally, he said to wait a bit longer and prepare something better for Fu Yi’s birthday, but now he suddenly arrived in Rome with no time for preparations.

He felt embarrassed to go buy something random at a souvenir shop to fob her off.

After thinking it over, only the products he participated in researching and making could barely be presented.

Source Crystal Self-healing Alloy Teeth Grinding Stick.

This is probably the hardest teeth grinding stick in the world?
