Big Harvest, and There’s Someone Who Wants to See You

Hesitating for a moment, the dog replied, "It's not that kind of tasty, but more like… like that special energy in you and Selina. It feels different, but it's definitely delicious."

Thinking for a moment, Luke said, "Come with me."

The dog immediately cut the communication and slipped out of the neighboring room.

Luke led it to the aft deck, crouched down, and whispered in its ear, "Is the liquid you mentioned over there?" He pointed at where the unknown substance had sprayed over the deck.

Gold Nugget barked lightly in agreement.

"The liquid should be the same thing that attracted you to the tentacle, right?" Luke continued asking.

This time, Gold Nugget tilted its head and thought for a moment, before it barked.

Luke nodded, deep in thought. "They're basically the same, but with minor differences?"

Gold Nugget barked again to show that he was right.

Luke nodded. "You can go back now. I'll come over in a bit."
