StarNet Coin?
Georgia was puzzled for a moment, then immediately remembered the introduction of StarNet Coin in the novice tutorial. She tried to open her account balance, and sure enough, she saw one thousand StarNet Coins given to newcomers by the system. She was delighted and chose to pay with StarNet Coins to watch the game.
After the StarNet Coins were deducted by the system, the surrounding scene changed again, and he found himself sitting in a hall similar to a performance hall. Audience members took their seats in the empty seats around him one after another. On the stage in the middle of the hall, a man who looked like a host was saying something passionately.
Georgia observed all this with curiosity, and the people around him were also observing him with curiosity.
"Brother, there aren't many people like you who insist on wearing the hospital gown given by the system." A red-haired burly man suddenly came over, looked him up and down, and asked tentatively, "Is this your first time here to play?"
Georgia found that although the other person looked rough, his expression and tone were very friendly, so she nodded and replied: "Yes, I didn't have the mental strength before, so I didn't have the chance to come up."
The people around who heard his answer showed sympathetic expressions, came over to him familiarly, and started to talk about his concern. Some of them were even careful and reminded him that as his mental power had just emerged, it was not suitable for him to stay on the star network for a long time, as it would affect the stability of his mental power.
Georgia didn't expect that the people on Starnet would be so friendly. She thanked them for their concern and took the opportunity to ask about the things she didn't understand.
Everyone had already noticed that he was relatively young, and they enthusiastically educated him on science and introduced him to some of the more popular contestants in the competition.
"It's only the preliminary round now. The schedule is for the contestants to make one part at the same time. The time limit is two hours. After the part is completed, the system will determine whether the part is qualified. Qualified ones will advance, and unqualified ones will be eliminated." A blonde girl with big breasts introduced. She stretched out her finger with red nail polish and pointed at the host who was stirring the atmosphere on the stage, and said, "After he finishes talking nonsense, the competition will officially begin. At that time, the information of all the contestants will be arranged in order according to the numbers obtained when they registered and appear on the big screen. You can choose your favorite contestant to watch their game process. But it costs money to watch someone's game individually. Little brother, you look so cute, do you want your sister to sponsor you a little? Just accompany your sister for a drink. You won't get drunk if you drink on Star Network." After saying that, she winked at him.
Georgia had never been teased like this before, and his face turned red very honestly. The system also showed this very straightforwardly, and even simulated the feeling of heat when a person blushed, which made him very embarrassed.
Seeing this, the blonde girl covered her mouth and laughed happily.
"Anna, don't scare the kids." The red-haired burly man obviously knew the blonde girl. He patted her shoulder and gestured to the stage: "The competition is about to begin."
The host on the stage had indeed finished his nonsense. A light screen suddenly dropped from the sky and hovered above all the audience. After another round of countdown, dense information about the contestants appeared on the light screen. Georgia looked over and found that wherever he moved his eyes, the room number representing a certain contestant would light up, and an option would pop up to ask whether to pay StarNet coins to watch the game.
"Little brother, we are going to watch the game. See you again if we are lucky." The blonde girl winked at Georgia again, and then her figure flashed and disappeared from the spot. She must have entered a player's private room to watch the game.
The red-haired muscular man followed closely behind, but before he left he sent Georgia a friend request.
The number of spectators around him quickly dwindled, and the hall gradually became empty. A spectator statistics appeared behind the room numbers representing the contestants. In some rooms, the number of spectators was soaring, while in others, it remained static.
Not only that, Georgia discovered that this light screen extended infinitely outward, that is to say, as long as you look towards the edge of the light screen, a new row of player information will appear within your sight.
How many people participated in the competition at the same time?
Georgia was a little surprised, and tried to click on a popular room to enter, and then found that he actually had a five-minute trial benefit. After thinking about it, he guessed that this was probably the benefit that came with the 100 Star Network Coins he had paid before.
After the selection was confirmed, the screen changed again, and the same hall appeared, except that the person on the stage changed from the host to a contestant sitting at a table making parts. The audience in the hall stared at the contestant and kept cheering him on, but the contestant seemed to be unable to hear or see the audience, and was concentrating on making parts without even raising his head.
"Alas, little Luo Li didn't turn on the option to communicate with the audience. It's a pity that I can't hear his babyish thanks." An auntie among the audience sighed sadly, looking at the contestants on the stage as if a mother is looking at her own child who is sulking and ignoring others.
Another auntie in the audience waved the banner in her hand and consoled him, "It's okay if it's not on. This is not a normal time. Xiao Luoli is participating in the competition. It's most important to concentrate. We should understand him."
"That's right. You have to concentrate on the competition." The sighing aunt became more energetic and suddenly shouted at the stage at the top of her lungs: "Come on, Xiao Luoli! Aunt will always support you! Come on, come on! You are the best!"
The aunts and sisters around also started shouting excitedly upon hearing this, their expressions were so excited that they didn't care about their image at all.
Georgia was so frightened by their sudden roar that her body froze and she couldn't help but widen her eyes - everyone was so excited.
He secretly moved to the side, turned off the sounds around him, and concentrated on watching the game.
The benefits of the Star Network were immediately apparent. Even if he was sitting far away, as long as he moved his eyes over there, the things he wanted to see would immediately be magnified and become clear, and would also automatically turn, which was very user-friendly.
The contestant who also looked like a teenager at the table quickly sorted out the small parts, and then assembled them without stopping. From time to time, he picked up the tools beside him to operate the parts. His movements were smooth and flowing, and very pleasing to the eye.
But…Georgia couldn’t understand.
Although mecha manufacturing is also a type of mechanical manufacturing, it is a completely unfamiliar direction of mechanical research and development. And because of the involvement of the mysterious thing called mental power, the manufacturing of many mecha parts has been completely distinguished from traditional mechanical manufacturing. So Georgia can understand the first step, but cannot understand the next two, three, four, five... countless steps.
He had only seen assembled large parts and the assembly of entire mechas at Mr. Ren's place, but he had never come across the assembly of such basic small parts.
However, the more he didn't understand, the more he wanted to watch. This completely unfamiliar way of making machinery completely aroused his curiosity and passion!
"The five-minute trial period has ended. Would you like to pay 200 Star Network Coins to continue watching the game?"
The enthusiasm that had just risen was extinguished by the sudden mechanical prompt sound. Georgia looked at her account balance of only 900 Star Network Coins and shook her head silently: "...No, send me out."
This StarNet helmet is specially made. It skips the resident identity authentication process, cannot be bound to a real account, and cannot exchange federal coins for StarNet coins. In other words, unless he finds a way to earn StarNet coins on the StarNet, the balance in his account will decrease as he uses it, and will never increase.
The scene changed, and he was teleported to the square where he first arrived.
Now he has confirmed that his magic power can indeed be detected by the Star Network. Thinking of Chu Rong who is still waiting for his feedback, he reluctantly chooses to exit the Star Network, takes off his helmet, sits up, and makes a video call to Chu Rong.
"Can I go up?" Chu Rong asked directly.
The excitement that had been aroused by the virtual world calmed down immediately when she heard his voice. Georgia smiled at him and replied, "Yes, I can. I also watched a mecha manufacturing competition."
Chu Rong frowned, tapped the desktop with his fingers, and thought about something, then asked, "Did you feel any discomfort after logging into the Star Network?"
"No." Georgia shook her head and described in detail the process of logging into the Star Network and what she did on the Star Network, even who she met, what she talked about with them, and who she added as a friend.
I can log into my account normally and there are no restrictions on making friends. It seems that the StarNet system has not detected anything wrong with Georgia's power.
"Go home on the weekend and I'll take you for a checkup. Don't go online during this period, and try not to use your abilities when you are outside." Chu Rong instructed, and expressed his guess: "Georgia, your mental power may have become stronger."
Georgia was stunned and frowned in confusion: "But I didn't find any signs of my power being upgraded..." Upgrading from intermediate to advanced magic is not as easy as upgrading from elementary to intermediate. Magic is something that becomes harder and harder as you advance. Sometimes, if you don't encounter opportunities, it is normal to be stuck for decades.
"It should have been improved recently, after Zhuang Yu examined you." Chu Rong insisted on his guess. Seeing that he was confused, he relaxed his frown and patiently explained, "The Star Network has very low requirements for mental power. The weakest E-level mental power can be detected and logged into the Star Network. In daily life, E-level mental power users occasionally give people the illusion that their mental power has disappeared. Your mental power can be detected by the Star Network, which means you have at least reached the E-level level."
To sum up, Georgia's strength must have increased recently, but the increase is probably very small. Although it can be detected by machines such as the Starnet Capsule and Starnet Helmet that are very sensitive to mental power, Georgia herself cannot perceive it.
Georgia seemed to understand what he said, and looked down at her fingertips. She tried to gather a little magic power to feel it, but still could not sense anything, and became more and more confused.
"Don't think too much. Study hard these few days. Go to the South Gate after school on Friday and I'll pick you up." Chu Rong decisively changed the subject and ordered, "It's late. Go to bed."
Georgia came back to her senses and saw that it was indeed getting late. She was afraid that continuing to chat would disturb the other party's rest, so she nodded and climbed onto the bed, then looked at him eagerly, waiting for him to hang up.
Chu Rong, who was about to let him hang up the phone today, looked back calmly without moving.
The two looked at each other in confusion for a while. Uncle Chu lost his patience first and frowned, saying, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Georgia pulled the quilt and replied honestly: "You haven't hung up yet." You can only go to sleep after you hang up.
This reason seems to make sense.
"You hang up first." Uncle Chu was silent for a few seconds and gave a cold and firm order.
Georgia shook her head honestly, not hiding her attachment to him at all: "I don't want it, I can't bear to part with it."
Chu Rong's eyebrows jumped, and he narrowed his eyes and looked at him deeply.
The two looked at each other in bewilderment for a while, and Uncle Chu suddenly felt a little irritated, but not angry, nor in a bad mood. He just felt a little prickly, as if some strange emotions were running around in a mess.
He glanced at Georgia, who seemed to be lying on the bed and seemed to be warm, and asked coldly, "What is your StarNet ID?"
"Degu is the name of the village where I live." Georgia answered, and then wondered: "Why are you angry again?" The table was almost broken.
Again? Are you accusing him of having a bad temper?
Uncle Chu's face turned dark. He obviously didn't want to be angry, but he was still angry. He glared at him and scolded, "You are so rebellious." After that, he hung up the phone mercilessly, silently emitting cold air to the deserted room.
Georgia blinked blankly, then shrank into the quilt aggrievedly, and argued in a low voice: "I'm not rebelling against Heaven..." Heaven is the representative of God, only the fallen dark elves would rebel against Heaven, but he would not.
A dreamless night.
A few days passed like this, and Georgia had completely gotten used to life at school. During this time, she went to the comprehensive hall to watch Chu Yan and his classmates fight against each other in mechas, and by the way, she got to know Chu Yan's good friend Yuan Xiu.
On Friday, Georgia's most anticipated mecha manufacturing course finally appeared on the schedule.
Georgia finished the morning training with a more positive attitude than ever before, took out his mobility scooter, and headed towards Campus C where the Mecha Manufacturing class was located - the whole day was filled with Mecha Manufacturing classes, with theory in the morning and hands-on practice in the afternoon. He loved Fridays!
At this time, many people were rushing from Campus B to Campus C for classes. Some of his classmates who knew his situation showed strange looks when they saw him passing by with an expression of anticipation and excitement that he could not hide.
No one knows where this transfer student came from. Not only does he have poor basic knowledge, he also has no mental strength, is very old, and is said to be a native. He is not qualified to attend this school at all. But he got in anyway, and lived in the N1 dormitory building full of fifth-year students. He was in close contact with a bunch of federal military academy reservists every day. I was so jealous.
Everyone was unsure of his background, and they looked down on his indigenous and disabled identities, so they all ignored him tacitly, isolating him invisibly. But I don't know if this person is really stupid or pretending to be ignorant, but he actually ignored them in return, and didn't make friends like others. He went to class and left class on time every day, buried his head in reading during breaks, and left immediately after school. He didn't join any clubs, didn't join any small groups, didn't take the initiative to talk to anyone, and kept to himself, which was very cool.
The first graders who were in the transition period between childhood and adolescence became awkward and angry when they saw this, and began to isolate him more severely than before. Some even ran up to him and laughed at his strange appearance and imperfect abilities. However, Georgia remained calm, and after saying in a nice voice that his appearance was given by his parents and he should cherish it, he seriously told them that bullying classmates was wrong and that they would feel ashamed when they grew up and thought about it.
The little rascals were choked back, and then became angry and embarrassed - shame is bullshit! It's none of your business! Who are you! We are all teenagers, so what's the big deal about being a few years older!
Georgia, who felt that he was an older brother, looked at them with doting and tolerance, not angry at all. He opened his mouth as if he was going to lecture them again, but the little kids who came to laugh at him turned around and ran away. He was obviously very angry, but inexplicably felt a little shy.
After the failure of the first confrontation, a few idiots were unwilling to give up, so they came up with the idea of deliberately getting close to Georgia and taking the opportunity to ask questions to find out Georgia's background.
Then the chosen one, Carrot Head, went there. It only took him a few words to win Georgia's warm treatment. Then it took him another twenty words to find out his background - an orphan of a genocide, a genuine native, who was studying hard in order to skip a grade.
Skipping a grade?! This native actually wanted to skip a grade in a place like the junior college affiliated with the Federal Military Academy!
Carrot Head was scared and ran away. He told his companions about the situation, and then everyone fell silent.
So he didn't ignore them on purpose before, he was just too busy studying to pay attention to other things... From these two contacts, it seems that he has a pretty gentle personality, and doesn't seem that annoying either...
The carrot heads looked at each other. The carrot head who was responsible for approaching Georgia frowned and made a tentative suggestion, "Why don't you just stop bullying others? It's not nice to bully the majority with the weak, and it's a waste of time, not to mention that the native is an orphan."
As soon as the proposal was made, everyone agreed and looked at each other with red faces - let the natives suffer for skipping grades, and they just watch the show.
As a result, Georgia was no longer isolated, but still not many people were willing to contact him. This time it was not because of hostility, but because... why? I don't know, anyway, the carrot heads didn't want to take the initiative to pay attention to the weird native who liked to preach!
But at this moment, the carrot heads wanted to pay attention to him - he had no mental strength but still looked forward to attending the mecha manufacturing class. This, this is really ignorant! And... too miserable.
"Hey! Stop laughing! It's so ugly!"
A scooter suddenly accelerated and drove past Georgia. A little boy with handsome features but a chubby face stuck his upper body out and gave Georgia an order in a vicious voice.
Georgia turned her head when she heard the voice, her eyes lit up, and she greeted with a smile: "Good morning, Xiaochu, why didn't you go to morning training today? I didn't find you in the training hall."
Yun Xiachu's expression froze upon hearing this. She stuttered for a moment and angrily replied, "Do I have to report to you when I go to the training hall? You can train on your own, why are you looking for me? I don't want to train with you at all!"
"Yes, your physique seems to be only A, and your training chart is different from mine." Georgia liked this young boy who took the initiative to chat with him very much. Hearing this, he was good-tempered and ignored his tone. He drove the car closer to him, took out a small metal doll from the storage ring and gave it to him. He smiled and said, "Here, I made it myself. I heard that you like these very much."
In the past few days, he has been learning mechanical design theory by himself. In order to better understand it, he tried to use the mechanical manufacturing methods here to make a few metal dolls. The design of the one he sent out was based on the Yunluo beast in the magic continent. It is relatively small and cute, and round, very much like Yun Xiachu's angry face. The name happened to be similar to the other party's. Now that he saw the other party, he thought of it and gave it to him directly.
Yun Xiachu's face quickly turned red because of his words "Physical fitness is only A", and she stuttered again. Suddenly, she glared at him fiercely, snatched the doll he handed over, said with disgust that it was ugly, then shrank back, closed the window, and asked her companions to drive the car away a little, as if she wanted to draw a clear line between them.
Georgia looked at him with amusement as he tried to turn his head away from her, and cooperated by driving the car to distance himself from him. Her mood was lifted by this little episode, and the smile on her face became more obvious.
Yun Xiachu, who was far away from him, saw his happy look out of the corner of his eye, snorted angrily, looked down at the fat animal-shaped doll in his hand, pulled its tail hard, muttered something in a low voice, and put the doll away.
Following the instructions of the class schedule, Georgia came to the corresponding classroom and sat down in a corner. He thought that there would be no one else sitting within a meter around him like in the previous few days. However, he didn't expect that it suddenly got dark around him. Yun Chuxia, who was a little slow in development and was only about 1.5 meters tall, sat next to him, while the few people who usually followed Yun Chuxia sat far away on the other side of the classroom.
"Xiaochu?" Georgia looked at him in surprise.
"What are you looking at! Don't you know it's rude to stare at people like that?" Yun Chuxia turned her head to glare at him, then lowered her head to open the textbook, pretending to be serious as if she was waiting for class.
Georgia immediately retracted her gaze, opened the textbook, but couldn't help looking at him again. She squinted her eyes and smiled, and whispered, "Thank you." This child obviously didn't mean any harm, but he chose to act like a fierce person, which was very cute.
Yun Chuxia's expression froze and she turned her face to the other side, pretending not to hear what he said, but her ears slowly turned red.
At exactly nine o'clock, the teacher entered the classroom on time, asked them to use the client to connect to the teaching software, and started teaching directly.
Georgia immediately focused her attention, took out her electronic notebook and began to concentrate on the class, taking notes seriously, and no longer had the energy to pay attention to anything else.
Yun Xiachu, who was sitting next to him, was listening to these things that he had already learned at home with boredom. He watched Georgia taking notes attentively with his peripheral vision. His eyes swept over his hand while he was taking notes, then glanced up at his pointed ears and snorted from his nose - a troublesome native, humph!
The morning passed quickly. Georgia watched the teacher leave, then took out a nutrient solution from the storage ring and drank it. He turned to the first page of the notes he had taken in the morning and used the lunch break to start consolidating what he had learned.
After being awkward for a long time, Yun Xiachu finally decided to take the initiative to invite him to have lunch together. Seeing this, she widened her eyes in disbelief, slammed the table and glared at him, "You, you, you..." for a long time but didn't say a word. Finally, she angrily put away the textbooks and e-books, turned around and walked away with heavy steps.
Georgia forced herself to focus her attention and waited for him to say something like "you..." She looked at him in confusion as he walked away and fiddled with the electronic pen in her hand - are all adolescent children so difficult to understand?
The students in the classroom left in a flash. Georgia set an alarm to remind her of the afternoon class and continued to bury her head in her notes.
The midday sun shone warmly through the window, casting a long shadow of Georgia on the table. Ning Kongran, who had just finished his morning research, came down from upstairs. When he passed this corridor, he noticed the shadow on the table, paused, took two steps forward, and looked over casually.
First came a hand holding an electronic pen, then a slender wrist with a beautiful curve, and then an arm and a thin body wrapped in a school uniform. A head suddenly lowered to cover the class name tag on the chest of the uniform, and two pointed ears appeared in the soft platinum hair.
Ning Kongran, who was just taking a casual look, suddenly stopped and instinctively turned his body to block the ray of sunlight that was shining in.
Georgia was stunned when he noticed the change in light. He stopped correcting his notes and looked up at the change in light. Then he met a pair of gentle amber eyes. He was startled and sat up straight and moved back a little. His ears trembled unconsciously.
Ning Kongran also seemed to be frightened and turned sideways. He took a step to leave, hesitated for a moment, and took his foot back. He turned around and walked back a few steps. He opened the window on the side where Georgia was leaning, looked down at him, and said gently: "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you just now."
"It's okay, it's okay." Seeing the other party being so friendly and polite, Georgia quickly sat up straight and waved his hand to indicate that it was okay. He looked at the empty corridor outside and asked embarrassedly, "Is it not allowed to stay in the classroom after class? Sorry, I don't know..." Otherwise, why would this person be standing outside and looking at him so strangely.
Ning Kongran finally saw his appearance clearly. His eyes paused on his pointed ears again without leaving any trace. Then he glanced at the class card on his chest and the electronic notebook on the desk, and replied: "You can use it. Just leave before the next class starts... Are you a first-year student?"
"Yeah." Georgia nodded, hesitated for a moment and introduced herself: "Hello, I'm Georgia." The other party had taken the initiative to come over and talk, and it seemed rude not to introduce herself.
The boy's voice was beautiful, and it would have been even better if it didn't carry a hint of cautious tentativeness.
"Ning Kongran, fifth grade."
Ning Kong then took a step back, leaving a safe distance between the two of them that would not make people feel rude or offensive, then smiled at him and said kindly: "If you are new to mecha manufacturing, you can practice more on the Star Network. The opening hours of the laboratory building in Campus C are limited, so it is not very convenient for students from other campuses to review after class."
Can you practice mecha manufacturing on Starnet?
Georgia was stunned for a moment, but immediately became pleasantly surprised after digesting this information. She couldn't help but give him a big smile and said gratefully, "Thank you for the reminder. I will go if I have the chance." After the physical examination this weekend and making sure there is no problem, he can go online again.
Any chance?
As he spoke, his head unconsciously tilted to one side, revealing the mental simulator worn on his other ear. Ning Kongran, who was wondering about the words "there is a chance", immediately noticed this and looked at him in silence, and rarely tasted a slight taste of annoyance.
"Sorry," he apologized again, politely not looking at the simulator in Georgia's ear.
Georgia was puzzled when she heard this and looked at him strangely. Why apologize again? Did they talk about anything that needed an apology?
It's been a long time since I saw such pure and clear eyes... The communicator's prompt sound suddenly rang, Ning Kongran withdrew his gaze from his green eyes, lowered his head to open the message sent by his friend, looked at it, and looked up at Georgia.
"Nice to meet you." Georgia smiled and waved her hand, tactfully making a gesture to end the conversation.
Ning Kongran paused, turned off the call, looked at him gently for a few seconds, put a smile on his face again, nodded and replied: "Me too...see you next time."
"Bye." Georgia responded with a smile.
Georgia's review progress was interrupted by this strange man who suddenly appeared. She picked up her electronic pen, got up, packed her things, and went to the laboratory building of Campus C in advance.
On the way there, he met several groups of senior students returning from dinner. He then realized that since Ning Kongran was a fifth-grade student, he should be about the same age as Chu Yan, but why did he look so mature? He didn't look like he was seventeen or eighteen years old at all, but more like he was in his early twenties.
Is he a repeater?
He thought of the natural academic aura that the other person exuded, and shook his head to deny this guess - it doesn't seem like that. Such a confident and calm temperament doesn't seem like something that a repeater can exude.
If he couldn't figure it out, he would stop thinking about it. He put these doubts behind his mind and quickly walked into the door of the experimental building - he would be able to see Chu Rong after the practical class in the afternoon. He missed him very much after being separated for a few days.
The first-year mecha manufacturing practical class was very simple. In the early stage, it was basically about recognizing various materials and tools. The content was dull and boring. Because Georgia had missed more than two months of classes, he had to make up for the many materials and tools. Fortunately, he had a good memory and could remember everything he saw, so he made up for it very quickly.
Yun Xiachu, who had been deliberately circling around him, ready to help him make up for his lessons if he asked for help, became more and more irritated, and finally stopped beside him, glaring at him with a straight face - natives are natives, is that how you learn things? You throw it away after just one look, you can't just give up on yourself like this!
His gaze was so intense that Georgia was finally burned out of her study. She looked sideways in confusion and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Is there something you don't understand?"
Yun Xiachu's eyes, which had just brightened, dimmed again, and then she glared at him with even more anger, and shouted, "You don't understand! I learned these basic things when I was five years old, how could I not understand!" After shouting, she turned around and ran away, leaving him with a back that was so angry that she walked with her hands and feet trembling.
Georgia: “…” He is indeed an adolescent child, with a bad temper and his outbursts are very difficult to understand.
After the afternoon class ended, Georgia contacted Chu Yan with the communicator. After learning that Chu Yan would not be going home because he was going to practice fighting with Yuan Xiu this weekend, he did not even return to the dormitory. Instead, he ran to the south gate of the school in his uniform and ran towards the black hovercraft parked on the corner of the street.
Chu Rong opened the car door at the right time and reached out to pull Georgia, who was running forward, up.
The car door closed immediately and then took off, so fast that the other students leaving the school gate could not see a thing.
"Chu Rong!" As soon as Georgia landed on the ground, she stretched out her arms and rushed towards the tall man with a cold face. She rubbed her head against his chest and said excitedly: "I miss you so much. Do you miss me? Are you feeling better? When we get home, I will make you another potion, okay?"
"Sit still!" Chu Rong let go of his collar and scolded him, but he sat up straight and let him hold him. He raised his hand to rub his hair, pinched his ear, and continued to scold: "How can you run out like that? What if you bump into something? You're so careless."
Georgia tilted her head and rubbed his palm with her ear. The happiness in her tone was not concealed. She said with a smile: "I won't bump into you. I have paid attention. How long have you been here? Have you eaten? Campus C is too far from here. I could have left earlier."
"Is this why you don't change your clothes?" Chu Rong pushed him away in disgust, rubbed his ears hard before retracting his hand, tapped the stain on his chest, and asked, "What's this? Did you fight at school?"
Georgia looked down and shook her head to explain, "No, there was a mecha manufacturing practice class this afternoon, and there was a tool identification session. This was accidentally rubbed when I was maintaining the tool."
In fact, Chu Rong, who had known his course schedule for a long time, had already guessed the source of the stain, but he still asked the question uncontrollably.
He frowned, feeling a little irritated because of this slight sense of loss of control. His eyes met Georgia's pure joy, and his irritability dissipated unconsciously. He raised his hand to push his bangs and said, "Go get checked first, and then go home for dinner."
"Okay." Georgia nodded obediently, unable to suppress her excitement. She raised her hand and took out a bunch of metal dolls from the storage ring and placed them on the chair. Then she found the largest, most exquisite and most majestic one and held it in front of Chu Rong, presenting it as a treasure and saying, "I made this for you. Do you like it? There is also a magic stone inside, and a magic circle is painted on the inner wall. Put this in the study, it can relieve fatigue."
"You actually drew a magic circle at school. What did I tell you before?" Chu Rong's face darkened.
Georgia was stunned. She looked at him carefully, retracted her hand, lowered her voice, and explained, "I locked the door and asked Qiuqiu to help me watch it. No one will find out, really."
"... This won't happen again." Chu Rong raised his hand and pulled his ear, then reached out to take the beast-shaped metal doll and looked at it. Under Georgia's expectant eyes, he put it away and nodded, saying, "Not bad."
Georgia immediately became happy after receiving the affirmation, and pulled him to introduce other dolls excitedly.
Chu Rong listened to him quietly, responding from time to time, and the aura around him gradually became gentler.
The hovercraft stopped in front of the white building they visited last time. Chu Rong took Georgia through a special passage to the 18th floor, where he met up with Zhuang Yu and asked Georgia to repeat the examination that they had done last time.
"There are fluctuations in mental power, but they are very weak and appear and disappear from time to time. Only one instrument can detect it." Zhuang Yu reported excitedly. He read the test report in his hand again and again. He was so happy that he wanted to hug Georgia and rub her a few times.
Georgia, who noticed her intention, immediately hid behind Chu Rong, receiving an unfathomable look from Chu Rong.
"Can the physical examination at the military academy detect this change?" Chu Rong asked.
Zhuang Yu immediately stopped joking and replied seriously, "No, the equipment in the military academy is not even as good as that in the military, let alone here. But if Qiao's power grows again, everything will be uncertain."
Chu Rong frowned even more tightly, turned his head to look at Georgia, and asked, "Are you sure your strength hasn't become stronger recently?"
"No." Georgia shook her head, looked back and forth at them, and expressed her guess: "I suspect that the change in my strength is related to the stone grass. To be more precise, it is related to the use of stone grass to make potions."
After that day, he paid special attention to his strength. After repeatedly confirming that it had not increased, he began to carefully recall the process of using his strength several times since the last check, and finally focused his attention on the stone grass.
The wood magic element contained in the stone grass is very rich, and probably because of the long-term oppression of energy storms and red tin mines, in order to increase its survivability, some mutations have occurred inside the stone grass, making the wood magic element in its body particularly active.
If the activity level of ordinary wood magic elements is fifty, then the activity level of the wood magic elements in the stone grass is at least eighty or above.
