A glitch during a system upgrade at a certain game boosting studio accidentally grants them the "Otherworld Boosting System." As long as they log into the system, the studio members will be...
Angelina lay on her back in the middle of the lake, her eyes turning into sushi rolls.
It felt a little dizzy.
With its relatively rounded shape and near-elliptical form, Beihu Lake looks more like a natural running track at first glance.
Dust billowed, and the sound of wheels grinding against sand and gravel broke the silence of North Lake.
Xiao He's carriage was behind Jia Bo's, but in reality, it ran two more laps than him.
This wasn't Jia Bo's first time racing; racing was a favorite activity among aristocratic young men, and he had always been a racing champion.
Xiao He's choice of vehicle was quite good, but it was far from being as extraordinary as it seemed.
Jia Bo knew very well that the reason he was surpassed was simply because he wanted to surpass Xiao He, but ended up being outmaneuvered by him.
The first time he didn't believe it, but after it happened twice, Jia Bo was more than just shocked.
"That driving skill, you've practiced it?!"
It's no wonder Jia Bo was so surprised, after all, Xiao He looked like just a cute little girl.
Few girls spend time practicing driving, and even fewer can become as skilled as professional race car drivers.
Xiao He happened to be this unique individual.
In a moment of distraction, Jia Bo, who had been overtaken again, looked at the middle finger sticking out of the car window in front of him and didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.
Sometimes, people's hearts are just that strange.
If Xiao He were a man, Jia Bo would probably have gritted his teeth and roared that he must catch up.
But the truth is he lost, yet he lost with great satisfaction.
"I'm done competing! I give up!" Jia Bo waved from behind.
Xiao He glanced at the rearview mirror, a smirk playing on his lips, and abruptly slammed on the brakes.
Jia Bo, who was following behind him, felt a chill run down his spine and instinctively turned 90 degrees, causing another ear-piercing screeching sound to echo along the lakeside.
"Hey, you're too ruthless! I almost broke the steering wheel!" Jia Bo felt nauseous as soon as he got out of the car.
Xiao He then leisurely opened the car door, got out of the car with lingering enjoyment, his expression still seemingly captivated by the speed of the luxury car.
"You were too hasty. If you could have calmed down, I wouldn't have been able to exceed the limit so many times."
"My God." Jia Bo hadn't taken more than a few steps before collapsing onto the hood of the car, rolling his eyes and wailing in utter disgrace, "You've really broadened my horizons! Now I understand, I'm a real weakling!"
Xiao He couldn't help but chuckle. Although Jia Bo was still saying discouraging things, he was clearly joking now, as if he had already vented all his frustrations.
"Then you'd better work hard from now on, and don't be so listless anymore. I'm counting on working with you to get rich!" Xiao He said with a chuckle.
Jia Bo was speechless. He lay there for a while before he recovered. When he turned his head and saw Xiao He's smiling face, he was touched.
"I didn't know you liked cars too?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao He was taken aback: "Really?"
"Yes!" Jia Bo pinched his cheek and said without hesitation, "And I just realized that there's such a big difference between your real smile and your fake smile."
"Yeah?"
"Yes!" Jia Bo said confidently, "A real smile is beautiful!"
"..."
"How about we hang out again sometime?" Jia Bo asked tentatively.
"Okay." Xiao He scratched his head.
-
After refusing Jia Bo's offer of a luxury car, Xiao He, along with Angelina, bid farewell to Jia Bo and the other workers and went to the place closest to Lianyun Street.
This is not only the boundary of Beihu District, but also a three-way intersection.
Apart from Lianyun Street, there are only Beihu West Road and Beihu South Road, and there are almost no residential areas around.
"This will do." Xiao He looked around with satisfaction.
He drew his knife, gestured at the wasteland in front of him, and then leaped high into the air.
Three sword energies, like demonic claws, cleaved the earth, and green shoots sprouted from the soil, soon forming a lush lawn.
The scent of fresh grass in the air is truly refreshing.
Xiao He had just taken the Fiss crystal out of the warehouse and placed it on the lush green grass, thinking that he still needed some saplings and flower seeds, when he heard the sound of an airship in the sky.
Yang Xing also brought Feilong No. 1 here, along with Dai Lele and the other two who had just returned.
"Brother Xiao~ I miss you so much~~"
As soon as Dai Lele stepped out of the cabin, she ran towards Xiao He.
The latter immediately fled, knowing that being hugged by that chest would have unimaginable consequences.
“You’re so annoying!” Dai Lele stomped her foot.
Considering the strange behavior of the three of them that day, it's not hard to guess that it was all Dai Lele's idea. But she meant well, so Xiao He naturally wouldn't scold her.
"Is this your Magic Fairy Castle?" Yang Xing pushed up his glasses.
"This is called Feisburg, not Magic Fairy Castle. You've been watching too many cartoons, haven't you?" Dai Lele gave him a disdainful look.
"Alright, you try out this wing first."
Yang Xing wasn't interested in the name of the house; he just wanted Dai Lele to test fly it and show everyone.
"Great!" Dai Lele's eyes lit up, and she equipped herself with the mechanical wings without saying a word.
"The head sensor controls the switch and speed, and the leg sensors control the direction. Try it out and see how it feels." Yang Xing reminded her again, afraid she would forget.
Dai Lele made an OK sign, bent her knees, and jumped into the air.
"Whoosh—"
With a flap of her two-meter-diameter wings, her body shot into the sky like a cannonball.
"How is it?" Yang Xing asked Xiao He, who was standing to the side.
Xiao He gazed at the high night sky. Dai Lele soon started playing with Angelina, but she was clearly not as agile as Angelina.
Yang Xing explained, "Lele's part-time jobs are all in the wild, which is more suitable for long-distance flights. The other type of wing is not large, with a diameter of 70-90 centimeters. It has 2 or 3 pairs of wings that vibrate at high frequency, making it suitable for combat use, but it lacks a certain crystal. I have already made a list, and I will organize the formulas and send them to you tomorrow."
"Okay." Xiao He nodded.
"You guys go in and rest. I'll ask Lele later if there's anything that needs adjusting. If not, I'll rest too." Yang Xing had dark circles under his eyes; heaven knows how many nights he'd stayed up.
"Okay, I'm going in now. You should get some sleep too."
The two high-fived in farewell.
Horry glanced enviously at the sky and followed Xiao He into the villa.
Only Wang Xuefeng had absolutely no need for these wings. If Dai Lele hadn't been testing them, he probably would have been the first to fall asleep.
Xiao He returned to his room, and he, who never had the habit of closing the door, had to close it.
Everything in the room was exactly as it was. As a demigod, Fesburg wouldn't accumulate dust, so he didn't need to clean it at all.
After changing into his pajamas and working hard all day, Xiao He went straight to sleep.
Before going to bed, I made sure to set my alarm for 7 a.m., since I had to go to work the next day.
Coincidentally, Wang Xuefeng next door also set his alarm for 7 a.m.
