Qiudao's distrustful look made Terry let out an indignant howl.
Terry declared forcefully, "Qiudao, I'm a wolf! You know I have a perfect sense of taste! There's no way I could get it wrong!"
"The fried gugu-meat cutlet that streamer made today was seriously delicious. It's the best I've ever had!"
His conviction left Qiudao wavering between belief and doubt. When Terry saw he still wasn't convinced, he immediately swore on his own wolf tail, "I bet you won't be able to resist how delicious it is!"
"Alright, alright, I believe you."
!
"Bro, hurry up and open the Star Network! Go follow her! She streams at eight o'clock every day!"
Unable to resist his roommate's passion, a resigned Qiudao opened the Star Network and followed the new streamer named Jiang Jiujiu.
At that moment, Jiang Jiujiu only had 29 followers.
'For such an amazing streamer to have so few followers… Jiang Qiuqiu is really getting a raw deal!' Terry thought.
Having transformed into Jiang Qiuqiu's number one fan after eating the cutlet, Terry immediately rallied and charged into his clan's community group.
Everyone knew the Federation Star Network was a monopoly, with a user base of countless individuals.
To help this massive population get along and communicate, the Star Network was divided into many community groups. People from the same race or group could gather together to chat about various topics.
As a Wolf Clan Genetic Hybrid, Terry had joined a community group called 'Exceptionally Sensitive Tongues.'
It was home to Genetic Hybrids with outstanding senses of taste, including wolf-species, dog-species, cat-species, and so on.
The people who frequented the group spent nearly every day discussing what to eat, what wouldn't make them gag, how to overcome their base instincts, and when they could finally stop drinking that shit-like Nutrient Liquid.
Terry was a regular, always on the lookout for anything tasty.
And today, he made a post of his own!
#Today I Ate the Best Meat in the Whole World!#
In the post, Terry described in detail how Jiang Qiuqiu had fried the gugu-meat cutlet, what it looked like, and, of course, saved his most effusive praise for the experience of finally tasting it.
He raved about how it was crispy and fragrant, bursting with juice at the first bite. It had none of the usual toughness of gugu meat. It was lean but tender, crisp but not greasy, and the aroma lingered forever... The whole thing read like an essay.
Seeing how sincere and heartfelt his post was, people in the comments started asking which stream he was talking about.
Terry excitedly dropped the link to Jiang Qiuqiu's stream. The people who clicked on it saw her pitifully small follower count, then looked back at Terry's gushing praise, and ??? immediately appeared over their heads.
'This has to be a paid shill hired by the streamer.'
When some people voiced their doubts, Terry fought back. He angrily posted pictures of the various warrior honors and military medals he had earned among the Wolf Clan.
The onlookers: 'Nope, can't mess with him. He's a big-shot Genetic Hybrid who can tear apart the Insect Race with his bare hands.'
They looked back at his flowery, over-the-top praise—
'Oh! If a powerhouse like him is hyping it up, maybe it's actually true!'
Riding the credibility of his various medals, Terry's post went viral for a bit. Jiang Qiuqiu's follower count jumped from a few dozen to several hundred. Satisfied, Terry logged out of the community group, but not before forwarding the post to his family group chat before bed.
'SOB... After eating that cutlet Jiang Jiujiu made, his wolf life was complete. A streamer this amazing absolutely can't be allowed to fade into obscurity! He, Terry, her number one stan, would definitely push Jiang Jiujiu to the top of the trending charts!'
That night, Terry dreamed that the streamer found out about everything he'd done. She was incredibly moved. Then, with a flick of her wrist, she laid out dozens of meat cutlets right in front of him—
In response, tears of gratitude streamed unhelpfully from the corners of Terry's mouth.
