Raising Octopus Juvenile - Chapter 33

Cecil: …So in the end, was it still eaten by you?

There were too many slots, and Cecil didn’t know where to start vomiting for a while. She suddenly realized that Lanny is different from any species she knows. Although he has intelligence and his own behavioral logic, he is more loyal to his instinct.

And his instinct is to swallow.

Swallowing everything he can see, whether it is an ugly mermaid or his own clone, he has no scruples. The same is true for the clones separated from him. They will not have a friendly attitude towards the same individuals, and will not show the beautiful picture of love each other in Cecil’s imagination.

The reason why they didn’t eat each other right away was just because they weren’t hungry yet.

Once they are hungry, they will instinctively look for any food that can satisfy their hunger.

Cecil couldn’t help thinking of what Stella had said, and subconsciously pursed his lips.

This is a sign of her nervousness.

She looked at Lanny, then at the new “Little One” in the water tank, with her snow-white eyelashes down, quietly thinking for a few seconds, then raised her eyes and asked carefully: “Then are you still hungry now? ?”

Lanny nodded, his eyes still craving, even mixed with a little grievance: “I’m more hungry.”

“…”

Cecil then reacted.

Since Lenny became a human form, he has been eating the same food as her. Fruits, vegetables, milk, cooked meats carefully cooked with various seasonings… But human food intake is too small for him.

When he was a mini octopus, his appetite was already amazing.

The raw meat eaten every day is measured in pots, and it is increasing day by day. Now that he is getting bigger, he should eat more, but he is forced to eat the same amount of food as Cecil-many of which are not meat.

The little octopus was originally a pure carnivore, but now it has been raised as an omnivorous animal by Cecil.

Cecil:…

This is not what a qualified owner should do.

Cecil suddenly felt a little too much.

“Sorry, I didn’t consider it well…”

Cecil raised his hand, Lanny lowered his head naturally, like a dog waiting to be petted. Cecil guiltily touched Lanny’s soft, curled black hair, who squinted slightly, revealing a happy and enjoyable expression.

He really liked Cecil’s touch, no matter how it was.

Cecil looked at Lanny’s comfortable look, and Stella’s sneer resounded in his mind.

She wanted to ask Lenny-then do you want to eat me now? But I dare not ask.

She was afraid that this question would remind Lenny. It’s like a piece of meat voluntarily runs to a hungry person and asks him “Do you want to eat me?” The answer must be yes.

So she thought about it, and finally just took Lanny’s hand and smiled softly at him: “Go, I’ll take you to eat.”

Just feed Lenny to his fill, so that he doesn’t feel hungry, so he won’t remember to eat her.

…perhaps.

Cecil stuffed Lanney, who had turned into a little octopus, into his sleeve, and sneaked into the kitchen by himself.

Now it was time to cook, and there was no one in the huge kitchen. Cecil closed the doors and windows, ransacked all the meat in his sight like a bandit crossing the border, took them all to the table, and then opened his sleeves to release the little octopus.

The little octopus slowly climbed onto the table along the back of her hand, opened the mouthparts at the bottom of her body, revealing jagged teeth-Cecil subconsciously touched his ears.

Fortunately, the one who bit her before was that Lanny was not the young one, otherwise her earlobe could be bitten through.

She stood quietly and watched the little octopus eat. In just a few minutes, the little octopus cleaned up the meat on the table, leaving no meat residue.

He returned to Cecil’s palm and raised his round head to look at her.

Cecil asked softly, “Are you full?”

The little octopus shook his long tentacles vigorously, as if saying that it was not enough.

Haven’t you eaten so much? It seems that I have been starving for the past few days…

Cecil thought for a while, and suddenly snapped his fingers: “Go, I’ll take you to get some tonic.”

The little octopus blinked and his big round eyes were filled with doubts.

Cecil took him out of the kitchen without saying a word, then stuffed it into his small shoulder bag, and hurriedly got into the carriage.

She suddenly remembered that there is an ecological garden of magic creatures built with a lot of money in St. Edmund’s College.

There are many weird magical creatures in this ecological garden. Some were searched from all over the mainland, and some were cultivated by the deputy chief himself. Although the college usually organizes students to visit and study, other than that, in order to prevent the loss of organisms, the ecological garden is not open.

The key to the eco-park is only in the hands of a few teachers, including Bode—because he often needs some of the creatures in it to do experiments.

However, what the college directors did not know was that Bode gave Cecil his key half a year ago.

“Some of the animals in it taste good, you can grab a few and try it.”

—This is what Bode said to her.

Cecil later asked him speechlessly: “So you said that the creatures you used for the experiment actually got in your stomach?”

“Right.” Bode nodded, “Taste experiment.”

It is a pity that Cecil always forgets this after receiving the key, so half a year has passed, and she has never stepped into the ecological park once.

Now think about it, the ecological garden is full of magical creatures with plenty of magic power. For Lenny, their nutritional value and deliciousness should be much higher than ordinary meat.

It’s better to take Lanni there to steal some food to eat, but if there are few of them, they should not be found. Even if they are found, it can be said that Bode has used them for experiments. Anyway, he himself often does this kind of thing.

After Cecil recalled the location of the ecological park, the carriage stopped outside the college.

As usual, due to being late, there was no one at the gate of the college at this time. Cecil was walking down the tree-lined path by herself, and suddenly heard someone calling her.

“Miss Levitt, you are here.”

This voice seems a bit familiar.

Cecil turned his head and looked back, and saw a young man with a hippie smiling face approaching her.

“Good day, Miss Levitt. You haven’t paid me the last time, have you forgotten it?”

Cecil opened his eyes slightly, a little surprised at the person who appeared in front of him.

“Kean McIntosh?” She spit out the name uncertainly.

“It’s me, it’s great that you haven’t forgotten me.” He stretched out his hand to Cecil and fixed his eyes on her, “Did you bring the last reward?”

Cecil looked at him steadily, feeling an indescribable weirdness.

Arnold told her before that the missing Keane had returned, but she didn’t expect that he would return to the college so soon, and he dared to come over to ask for a reward—as if his hand had never been broken by Lanney.

Moreover, his eyes… so weird.

Cecil did not remember what his eyes were like before, but they should not be as convex as they are now. Although it looks basically the same as before, his eyes are like dead fish, missing a bit of human vitality and agility.

Cecil thought for a while and asked him tentatively: “Kean, are your hands okay?”

Keane glanced at her strangely: “What happened to my hand?”

He can’t remember.

Cecil lowered his eyelashes to hide the surprise in his eyes. She took off the emerald pendant from her neck and handed it to Keane calmly.

“I didn’t pay today, so I will give you this pendant.”

Keane knows the goods, and when he sees this jade pendant, he smiles greedily. He held the pendant and blew and touched it, directly hanging Cecil aside.

Cecil took the opportunity to walk away quickly, then found a hidden corner, and let Lenny out.

“Lanny, do you think… he has forgotten you?” Cecil asked suspiciously.

Lanny smiled: “Who knows.”

Cecil: “…”

What the **** is this ambiguous attitude.

She continued: “I think he is a bit weird anyway.”

Lanny heard the words and licked the corner of his mouth eagerly: “Then can I eat him?”

“…Can not.”

Lanney suddenly showed a disappointed expression.

“Leave him alone. Now we are going to sneak into the ecological park in stealth. Remember to hold my hand tightly and never let it go.”

Cecil told Lanny earnestly, Lanny lowered his head slightly and looked at her intently, with a small curvature in the corners of his mouth.

“…” Cecil pursed his lower lip uncomfortably, and said, “Have you remembered what I just said?”

Lanny nodded and took her hand naturally.

Cecil felt inexplicably, this movement seemed a bit…too natural.

No, no, this is a natural thing, after all, she taught it, and she asked Lanny to do it.

Lanny was just following her instructions.

Cecil shook his head, stopped thinking about it, lowered his head and muttered softly. A transparent ripple waved away, and she and Lenny’s figure disappeared into the air together.

They arrived at the eco-park soon.

After a vacant key turned a circle in the keyhole, the gate of the ecological park opened. Immediately afterwards, the door closed again, and the figures of Cecil and Lanny slowly appeared on the grass.

This is a huge garden, covering an area more than twice the size of the black tower. Flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, there should be something here-but they are all species that Cecil doesn’t recognize.

The creatures in the eco-park saw someone entering, without even lifting their eyelids, they continued to sleep and drank water.

They have long been accustomed to human visits.

Cecil took Lanny to the land area closest to them, pointed at a behemoth that looked like a pig and said to Lanny: “Lanny, how about eating this? Looks like a lot of meat.”

This pig—call it that for the time being, as if he understood Cecil’s words, let out a disdainful anger from his nostrils, and then raised his front hoof to kick at Cecil—

A tentacle dropped from above, slowly entangled it.

Cecil immediately looked sideways at Lenny: “Do you want to eat it?”

“Yeah.” Lanney nodded.

But he did not turn back into a little octopus like before, but stood quietly on the spot, his eyelashes drooping slightly, and his side face quiet and beautiful.

The ecological garden gradually became quiet, and all the creatures stopped moving and gradually became dead.

Cecil blinked, not understanding what was going on.

Gradually, she heard small and small noises coming from all around.

Something ran through the emerald green grass.

Cecil looked down at his feet.

Countless dark tentacles are slowly pouring out from behind Lanni, and I don’t know when it has spread to the entire ecological garden.

They swept and spilled silently like a tide, covering every piece of grass and water.

And every creature swept by the tentacles turned into nothingness in an instant.
