Chapter 1581 Dog-shaped Energy a.s.sessment Machine

Ignoring the fawning, Luke simply asked, Then be honest. Rank all the energies youve ever eaten on a scale from most to least tasty. The dog head didnt prevaricate at all. Selina is first, Grandpa is second, and Luke the fiend and Claire are both third.

Ignoring the dog head who called him a fiend behind his back, Luke walked leisurely down the street. Is my energy half as tasty as Selinas? Or a little less tasty? Or a lot less?

The dog thought for a few seconds, as if weighing the difference in taste, before it finally said, A little more than a little less tasty? Luke long understood how this guy used words. He nodded thoughtfully. Then its a lot less, but still very tasty? The dog head said, Thats right. Grandpa Pennyworth, youre too smart.

Luke wasnt moved by the flattery at all. He continued asking, Then are Luke and Claires energies half as tasty as Selinas?

Theirs is indeed a lot worse, but still more than half, the dog head replied quickly this time, clearly already having a measure in place.

Luke nodded.

To use a score out of 100, the energy in Selinas body was worth more than 90, the energy from the credit points he had just fed Gold Nugget was around 80, and his Elementary Self-Healing and the special energy in Claires body were worth over 60.

Previously, he had found an opportunity to combine with Gold Nugget and quietly evaluate the other members of the team.

Alices Intermediate Self-Healing and her daughters mental energy were also over 80.

Angels was over 50, and the little turtles and their master were over 70.

The Kunlun Chi Refining Technique hovered between 60 and 70-plus; each persons cultivation progress affected the taste for Gold Nugget.

Elena was more unique. Gold Nugget said that the taste of her energy was indescribable. It tasted delicious, but was hard to eat.

In the end, Gold Nugget described the taste of Elenas energy like a combination of an In-N-Out cheeseburger, fried stinky tofu and spicy garlic paste.

The gist of it was: Good food + good food + good food. When mixed together, it turned into a strange-tasting combo that was tasty but hard to eat.

Wades energy naturally tasted weird. Gold Nugget had described it very precisely early on as a combo of chocolate + sh*t, which completely matched Lukes impression of the lunatic although he was useful, he was intolerable.

Luke had slowly figured out how Gold Nuggets taste test ability worked.

His own strength had been average in the beginning, when he had only just started studying the systems rules and functions. His research and use of superpowers had also been at a very low level.

At that time, he had been very wary of Gold Nuggets symbiosis, and naturally didnt want to take the risk.

If this dog head learned the shocking secrets in his head, who knew what would happen.

But in recent months, as various research achievements came out one after another, he finally focused on Gold Nugget.

This dog head was too useful and knew too many secrets. He had to thoroughly study it.

But because it had been brainwashed at the beginning, the dog head was now very sensitive to being studied. Even Lukes forbidding might couldnt overcome its resistance.

Gold Nugget was an important teammate.

It was probably because it wasnt human that it couldnt pa.s.s the systems teammate a.s.sessment.

However, it was a smart creature who knew the most about Lukes secrets in this world, apart from Selina.

After two years of education, Gold Nugget was already a mature dog head. Not only was it easy to take care of, it didnt cause trouble and was very obedient. It could also be Selinas bodyguard, pet, and confidante, and run errands and scold people online on her behalf.

The one thing it was bad at was math, but it wasnt any worse than many people, so this couldnt be considered a shortcoming.

Lukes att.i.tude toward the dog head slowly changed from stern and intimidating to stern but benevolent.

Gold Nugget didnt notice anything as it ate and played every day. However, it indeed wasnt as fearful of Luke as it used to be.

It thought it had mastered Selinas unique skill

find the right time to act cheeky, and it would be fine.

Actually, Luke wasnt a stern person to begin with. It was fine as long as Gold Nugget did things properly and didnt mess around

In any case, there had been a saying in his previous life: A dog is a son, a cat is a master. How many sons werent naughty?

Thus, Luke used the excuse of researching taste and studying mental resistance to trick it into partic.i.p.ating in various tests. Gold Nugget couldnt resist sampling energy.

Selinas energy was top-notch, but Luke was afraid that it would affect Selinas body, so he only gave Gold Nugget a 1% quota.

Besides, after eating Selinas energy for so long, it did need a change.

After multiple experiments, Luke concluded that Gold Nugget couldnt access all the information in its hosts brain through the symbiosis.

So, Gold Nugget combined with the clone as a test.

Combine with Lukes real body? That was impossible.

The clone, as a system code, was the most reliable test subject.

Sure enough, after the symbiosis, the system sent a notification: Mental energy link from symbiote detected. Accept? Luke chose no.

The symbiosis could still happen, but when Gold Nugget was asked, it said that it could only sense the clones more intense thoughts.

It could sense fleeting thoughts during the symbiosis process, but according to Gold Nugget, the clones brain was empty.

Although it was an annoying reply, Luke knew that it wasnt like the dog head was actually scolding him.

To its senses, the clone had a blank consciousness and didnt have any thoughts.

When Selina and Gold Nugget combined, it got a whole bunch of information from her. Gold Nugget could easily sense surface thoughts, like body movements.

Under that were random thoughts that popped up, like wanting to eat char siu, sweet and sour pork, tomato squirrel fish and so on.

At an even deeper level, Gold Nugget would have to carefully discern the thoughts in order to understand them, like what Luke was doing now, how many people he was beating up tonight, and so on.

These three levels of the hosts consciousness were what this symbiote was most familiar with.

It took a great deal of effort to communicate with the consciousness at an even deeper lever, and was generally unnecessary.

Luke speculated that what Gold Nugget was connected to during the symbiosis was part of the hosts self-awareness.

This was mostly focused on the self, like eating, drinking and having fun, which were typical biological instincts.

Gold Nugget automatically steered clear of the part that dealt with the hosts ego and conflict. That way, it wouldnt go crazy. At the same time, it was influenced by Dollars instincts, and recognized Selina as its master.

When it came to the clone, Gold Nugget could only sense and communicate with the first layer of consciousness.

This hollow sh.e.l.l was what the dog remembered.

As Luke pondered, Gold Nugget suddenly exclaimed, Ah, something bigs happened. Grandpa, send me back.
