Chapter 110 Chu Xuange: "Why didn't you take me?"
[The beautiful, frozen lady] sat down, her seat directly opposite Pei Hening.
Pei Hening noticed the small flower hair clip on her head; it looked somewhat familiar.
Is it that little flower hair clip with the big white goose?
[The Beautiful Frozen Lady] also noticed the little doll she was wearing and asked in confusion, "Have we met before?"
Pei Hening admitted, "Yes, I saw you with the guy with the middle parting at the time."
[Beautiful Frozen Lady] said with a bitter face: "Luckily, the three of you cleared the level early, otherwise you would have been as unlucky as me."
"Frozen Sister, is that A-rank dungeon really that scary?"
[A fairy descended to earth] brought her a set of bowls and chopsticks and asked her questions out of curiosity.
"It's not scary, but it's disgusting."
She recalled the scene she had witnessed and got goosebumps: "[I Am You] has a lot of'staying' players. They are just parasites. I saw with my own eyes a'staying' player grab a player with a bow around her neck and replace her. It was a real replacement, making her look exactly like her."
[Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit] frowned, grasping the key point, her voice dry: "Is there something in this dungeon that can replace a player? Are you sure about the players who came out of the dungeon..."
Everyone present frowned, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
[Beautiful Frozen Lady] said in a slightly hoarse voice: "After the dungeon was upgraded, I killed all the players who left my sight."
That's why [send me the recipe for roasted king oyster mushrooms] cursed at her in the chat channel.
But she had no choice; if she could, she wouldn't want to wield her sword against players who were also Chinese.
[The Escaped Mermaid] laughed, "Well done! Who knows what these so-called'staying' players are all about?"
[Fairy Descending to Earth] raised her hand and rubbed the goosebumps on her arm, saying, "This dungeon is really scary."
Pei Hening also said, "There's nothing wrong with what you did."
[Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit]: "Let's eat, stop talking about this."
[Fairy Descending to Earth] tapped on the light screen and said with a smile, "Wait a moment, I'll take a picture and send it to Aunt Wu so she can be envious."
[Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit]: "Okay, I'll take a picture of my fellow villager too."
Seeing the four of them move in unison, Pei Hening quietly took a picture of Chu Xuange and sent it to him.
[DripDrip]: "Image"
[DibiDibi]: Having dinner with four female players at the service station~
[Princess Ningning]: Okay, let's eat well together.
A while later, Chu Xuange sent another message.
[Princess Ningning]: Why didn't you take me?
[Princess Ningning]: Of course, I don't necessarily mean that you have to take me with you.
Pei Hening replied, "It was a chance encounter; I didn't expect it either."
Pei Hening took a sip of the [Fairy Descending to Earth] wine and looked up in surprise: "It can add attribute points?"
The fairy descended to earth, her smile widening: "Yes, isn't that amazing?"
"That's pretty impressive!"
It's at least better than that little foreigner Frank, since it doesn't have the random negative effects.
[Fairy Descending to Earth] took a sip of wine and looked at [Lemon Tree and Lemon Fruit]: "Sister Lemon, when will you be officially promoted?"
Pei Hening listened intently.
"I don't know, I'll ask the person in charge tomorrow."
Pei Hening stroked the wine bottle in his hand, and after touching it, there was nothing wrong with [the beautiful frozen lady] for the time being.
[The Escaped Mermaid] asked, holding her chopsticks, "Young lady from a wealthy family, what are you thinking about so intently? I've called you twice already."
Pei Hening looked up: "You're daydreaming. What's wrong?"
"The fairy sister said she found an art gallery yesterday and asked if we wanted to go together this afternoon."
Pei Hening shook her head: "I have something to do this afternoon, so I won't go. You guys have fun."
[Fairy Descending to Earth]: "Little sister, you're really not going? I've heard that the gallery will be displaying paintings that grant attribute points to viewers today."
Pei Hening asked, "What kind of works are they? Are they works like those depicting Jesus and the Virgin Mary, with strong Western characteristics?"
Upon hearing the words "Jesus" and "Virgin Mary," [Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit] looked up at Pei Hening and asked in a serious tone, "Have you been to church? Do you believe in God?"
Pei Hening raised an eyebrow, meeting her scrutinizing gaze, and said, "I've been there once, but I don't believe in God."
[Lemon Tree Lemon Fruit] tapped on the screen and sent a message, not knowing who it was sent to. Only after the other party replied did she breathe a sigh of relief: "I'm sorry, little sister, I was just being paranoid."
Pei Hening noticed that the other three seemed unfazed, which made her understand; it seemed they also knew about the strangeness of the church.
After finishing her meal, Pei Hening paid for the food herself, pushed open the door of the private room, and went out to check if her car had been washed at the Little Pallas's Car Wash.
I had only walked a short distance outside when I saw a group of people heading towards the private room.
"I don't know if I'll be able to see Bai Li. I'd like to ask her for an autograph."
"I want to ask her about the date of her next concert so I can adjust my work schedule accordingly."
"Xiao Taozi resigned a couple of days ago. I don't know if she has found an assistant yet. I want to compete for the position."
Pei Hening overheard a few words and realized that this Bai Li was very famous, at least more famous than the Xia Zhi.
Little Pallas's Car Wash.
"Guest, you've arrived. Take a look and see if you're satisfied."
The little Pallas's rabbit with the green triangular scarf lit up when it saw her coming and took the initiative to go up and greet her.
Pei Hening followed it into the store and discovered her car—it was so clean it was practically reflecting light!
She opened the car door and checked the passenger side first.
She once skipped getting out of the car to water the plants, leaving a shallow mud stain on the passenger side, which has now been washed clean.
"It's very clean!"
Seeing that she was satisfied, the little Pallas's cat asked, "Sir, would you like to get a car wash card?"
"After getting a car wash card, you can wash your car anytime without waiting. It also includes free tire inflation, car interior vacuuming, and routine maintenance, which is very convenient!"
The convenience of washing up anytime without waiting was very appealing to Pei Hening.
"Let's get a card."
The cards at car washes and VIP cards at ice cream shops are similar, the only difference being the designs on them.
——
School.
She drove her car into the parking lot and saw Chu Xuange waiting for her.
She had just gotten out of the car when she heard him say softly, "Next time you go out to eat, can you take me with you?"
"Okay, I'll take you to the station for a meal next time."
As the two walked toward the teaching building, they unexpectedly encountered Titian and a creature they had met once before outside the main city of Wanderers coming out of the teaching building.
The man was dressed in a white cross-collar robe, had beautiful long black hair, wore a white bandage over his right eye, had a cold face, and his violet eyes were icy and ruthless.
The atmosphere between the two of them was strange. Pei Hening hesitated for a moment, but still greeted Titian.
"Hello, Teacher Titien."
Titien's expression softened slightly, and she nodded to them both, saying, "Good day."
After saying hello, Pei Hening went to the floating island.
The number 823786 is still the only number displayed.
"Teacher 823786".
Upon hearing her address, 823786 subconsciously analyzed her intentions.
Based on its understanding of the trainees, the sweeter the address, the more inappropriate it seems.
"Cesia asked me to give you this notebook."
It handed over a notebook, which Pei Hening took and flipped through: "The principles of magic? I haven't seen any books on this topic in the library."
823786: "The library does have this kind of content, but it is not open to humans yet."
"This is the first volume of the Principles of Magic, which we compiled and revised by West Asia."
"Talent and skills are the 'flesh and blood' attached to the principles of magic. To become a true strongman, one needs to understand the principles of magic."
823786 continued: "All power has a source and a price; it does not appear out of thin air."
Pei Hening understood the importance of this notebook. She put it away and asked, "When will the teacher be back?"
823786 said methodically, "I believe I am fully qualified to teach you."
Pei Hening:...
See, you're overthinking it again!
She didn't say that 823786 wasn't qualified to teach her!
Pei Hening looked completely innocent: "How could you think of me like that? I just miss Xixia a little; I haven't seen her for several days."
823786: "I don't know either, she doesn't share her schedule with us."
It's an assistant to West Asia, doesn't it know that?
823786 arranged today's lessons for Pei Hening, threw her onto the stage, found the best viewing spot, and opened the live stream inside the doll.
As soon as it opened its live stream, more than 5,000 viewers joined, and the number of viewers continued to rise.
"Good day, this is 823786, I'm here to go live as requested."
A series of glints flashed in its dark eyes.
"These are the trainees recruited by West Asia? Humans who were just pulled onto the highway for survival?"
"199999: Is teaching students fun? You guys have been quite restless lately."
"The magical principles that Sicily had us work on overnight were for her?"
"Yes, she's this student."
"The actions taken by West Asia carry a risk of violating regulations."
"Speaking of violations, haven't those crazy kids at school violated enough rules already?"
"Cescia is at most borderline; she's just teaching her students."
"Besides, so what if it's against the rules?"
"190804: I was wondering why it was so lively today, turns out it's because of the students from West Asia who are live streaming."
"How's it going with Parliament?"
"190804: They proposed that Sicily take their race's geniuses as students, and then accused her of racial discrimination."
"199999: How was it resolved later?"
"Sicily bombed Port-Saint-Portuguese overnight"
"I knew it. Don't they ever learn? They've been bombed so many times already!"
"199999: This student is interesting. Did Cecilia personally teach her? I see Cecilia's shadow in her."
"Yes, if Xixia hadn't been going on a long trip, she definitely wouldn't have let 823786 and 822222 manage things."
"199999: I'm free tomorrow, can I cover one of my classes?"
"822222:199999, let's fight, if you win you can teach me."
Pei Hening was unaware of what was happening in the live stream; otherwise, she would have asked 823786 for her appearance fee!
Today's lesson was very difficult; she would get injured if she lost focus.
She managed to slip in a phrase like "seeing spring" before finishing the lesson.
823786 admitted that it doesn't have many treatment techniques.
Pei Hening couldn't count on it at all. She finished the teaching content just in time, covered in injuries of all sizes.
She stepped off the ring and waited for [See Spring] to cool down.
A healing spell was cast on her, and her injuries were almost completely healed.
"Didn't you say you didn't have any healing skills?"
823786: "I got it from them."
Pei Hening was deeply moved: "823786, you're so kind! I'll never say you're my defeated opponent again!"
823786 didn't expect her to suddenly bring this up, and her hand froze for a moment, causing the comments in the live stream to be thrown into the air.
Pei Hening's smile froze for a second before returning to normal, maintaining her composure!
She mimicked Titien's greeting: "Good day, everyone."
"A defeated opponent? When did this happen?"
"It lost to a student before, and I have their battle records here."
"Isn't 823786 incompatible with healing skills? Who did it get the healing skills from?"
"It was Sicily; 823786 was on site when Santiago de Portugal was bombed."
Good day, students.
Good day
"Good day, student. You did well today."
"What about 199,999?"
"It has already met up with 822222 in combat room number nine. Those who want to watch, come quickly."
823786 quickly shut down the live stream.
Pei Hening wasn't in a hurry to leave get out of class. She looked at the doll in front of her and said, "Teacher 823786, in my world, everyone has the right to their image."
I've never heard of 823786.
It didn't understand Earth's culture and genuinely didn't know, so it asked in confusion, "What is portrait rights?"
"In my world, using someone else's image without their consent is considered an infringement and requires compensation."
Pei Hening saw shock in its eyes, and said with a slight smile, "If you had told me beforehand that you wanted to do a live stream, I wouldn't have disagreed~ But you've hurt me a lot~"
823786 hesitated, "What kind of compensation do you want? I don't think I have anything to offer you. Would you like to go see the Magic Creation Innovation Challenge? I can take you with me."
Pei Hening became interested: "Can I go?"
823786: "I can invite you to come with me."
Pei Hening's smile grew even sweeter: "Thank you, Teacher 823786~ You're so kind to me~"
Looking at her bright smile, 823786 felt something was off, but couldn't quite put her finger on it.
——
When Pei Hening came out of the rest area, she saw a stranger from the Frostfall tribe standing not far away with his arms crossed, waiting.
She wore a finely crafted black magic robe, sported a green princess cut hairstyle, and her accessories were neat and symmetrical. She looked more energetic than Shuxiao, who always had dark circles under her eyes, and was much more composed than the impetuous and reckless Pingyuan.
She paused slightly as the owner of the friendship feather in her hand came to her door.
"I am Danqing from the Frostfall Clan. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Danqing paused, then continued, "Do you know why I came to find you?"
Pei Hening nodded: "Is it a friendship feather?"
Danqing said frankly, "I actually looked for you for a long time. It was my sister who said she sensed the scent of my Friendship Feather in the main city of the Wanderers that led me to come here."
She said helplessly, "But I didn't expect you to be a human who just started surviving on the highway. If I challenge you now, it would not only be unfair to you, but also a disrespect to me."
