A bit slow-paced.
In the year 3035 of the Blue Star calendar, an asteroid struck Blue Star. The Blue Star authorities intercepted the asteroid, codenamed "Eye of the Storm," at high a...
At dawn, Xiao Bai was awakened by the sound of the radio. The loudspeaker was installed just opposite the big tree where she was sleeping, just across a short road. The sudden sound of the alarm was like an explosion in her ears.
Xiao Bai was so annoyed that he turned over and covered his ears. Damn! The roar and galloping of the mutant animals last night were not as loud as the sound of this horn!
I don’t know which lunatic set the alarm clock for Dongcheng School. The students haven’t even been admitted yet, but the alarm clock has been set already!
The alarm clock rang three times short and sharp, and then the familiar prelude to the radio gymnastics music sounded. Xiao Bai instantly felt like she was back on the university campus. Although she had indeed been in school these days, to be honest, this training school really didn't give her the feeling of being back in college.
After all, a proper university wouldn't have so many weird, crazy, mutant plants and animals! It's so disjointed!
Xiao Bai, who was woken up, felt speechless. He didn't know whether these people had any brains. What if the noise scared the mutant animals?
Thinking of this, she jumped up, made a megaphone shape with her hands, and shouted loudly into the speaker opposite: "Is anyone there? Hurry and turn off this loud music. What if it attracts a herd of mutant animals?!"
There was no response from the other end of the loudspeaker. Xiao Bai frowned, jumped down from the branch, called Lai Fu, and walked towards Shu Ling.
She had let the book spirit attract a group of mutant animals to run last night. She wondered if those mutant animals were startled by the horn.
When Xiao Bai found the book spirit, he saw a book lying alone on the bench in the trial garden. Xiao Bai took a closer look and saw that the one sleeping soundly between the pages was the book spirit.
Good fellow! What a great fellow! He must be sleeping among the pages of this book. No wonder we couldn't find him or the scurrying herd of mutant animals after all this searching! It seems even the shrill horn didn't wake him up!
Xiao Bai sat on the bench with his butt, which just held the book firmly under his butt.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Lift your butt up! You almost flattened me!" Shu Ling's dissatisfied voice came from under his butt.
Xiao Bai felt something lifting up his buttocks. He looked down and saw a paper stool underneath his buttocks. A book spirit was flying out from underneath, riding on a book.
As soon as he flew in front of Xiao Bai, the little guy pointed at Xiao Bai and cursed with his hair standing on end:
"Do you have any womanly manners at all? With your big ass, how can you just sit on a man? Do you have any manners?"
Xiao Bai carefully looked up and down at Shu Ling's palm-sized height, rolled his eyes, and said with a pout, "You're a man? At your height, you're just a rag doll at best! And besides, I told you to wear the spirit core to attract the mutant animals away! But you're sleeping here, and the mutant animals have run off to who knows where! Aren't you harming people?!"
"How dare you say that! I asked you to lead the mutant animals for a run! But you slacked off. This isn't my responsibility! Why should I listen to you?"
"Five spirit cores!"
"you!"
"Five spirit cores are gone!"
"No, no, no, come with me!"
Shu Ling brought Xiao Bai to the trial garden, to the small island in the middle of the lake where the big banyan tree originally stood. In the center of the island, there stood a long wooden stick made of paper that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Xiao Bai covered his eyes with his hands and looked over, only then did he see a spirit core reflecting light hanging above the tall paper stick.
Countless mutant animals surrounded the paper stick. Their eyes were red as they bit at the paper stick, and occasionally jumped up to bite it.
However, every time the paper stick was torn into pieces by the mad mutant animal, the top would immediately extend a little longer. As long as spiritual power was continuously input to keep the paper stick longer, the mad mutant animal below could be hooked.
Perhaps because they had been biting and jumping like this all night, these animals now looked listless, less energetic, and their biting movements seemed soft and weak.
"So, they just jumped and bit here all night?"
Shu Ling puffed out her chest proudly: "What do you think? Am I smart?"
Xiao Bai touched his chin and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that your little brain as big as a walnut is quite smart! Not bad, not bad!" After saying that, he stroked Shu Ling's head.
Shu Ling laughed proudly, then stopped laughing. Why did these words sound so unkind? Just as he was about to argue with Xiao Bai, the music playing on the speaker next to him suddenly stopped, and a male voice came from it:
"Hey, Xiao Bai, are you okay? How are all the mutant animals doing now? Why can't I hear their roars anymore?"
Xiao Bai's face suddenly fell, and he replied angrily: "You've been yelling all night, your throat must be dry! What's the matter? Why don't you let the animals rest?"
She was actually angry about what happened last night. Asking her to lead the mutant animals to run in circles and calling it exercise was too inhumane!
Perhaps sensing the dissatisfaction in Xiao Bai's tone, the voice on the radio paused for a moment before continuing:
"Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai, where is this mutant animal now? Is it somewhere far away from the teaching building?"
"Won't you guys come out and see for yourself where it is?!"
Li Shangxi, who was standing in the monitoring room, held his forehead with his hand. It seemed that he was really angry.
"Student Xiao Bai, please stabilize the mutant animals first. We will arrange a team to deal with them immediately."
Xiao Bai rolled his eyes, covered his rumbling stomach and sat on the grass not far away.
"Don't forget to bring me some breakfast! After all, I've been busy all night for you!"
I was so busy that I even forgot about the important things! Xiao Bai complained while pulling the dry weeds on the ground. Suddenly, her hands stopped pulling the grass. Damn! She forgot she was out looking for someone! Now she didn't find the person, and she wasted the whole night!
"Hurry up!" she yelled at the radio! She had to hand over this wave of mutant animals to them and then go find her uncle!
