Chapter 940 AS174: The Loose Squad & Jing Bomang
But what if we're still short two players?
That night, Tianhu Haoqi took me to the Moonlight Wetland dormitory in the Twilight Library to rest for the night. I waited until midnight but Zhu Ri didn't show up. I don't know where she went to fool around again. She didn't even come to see me!
The next day, Yu Xunge found Crab and Grapefruit staring blankly at each other in the Thief Insect Tavern in the Endless Sand Sea. The two said they had found two other teammates and wanted her to meet them.
As soon as she entered the tavern, she heard the sound of wind chimes and went straight to the crab's table.
At the dining table diagonally behind, Shark Leng sat staring intently at the crab, stuffing spoonful after spoonful of fried rice into his mouth without even blinking.
Of course, Crab knew that Shark was behind it. It scratched its prickly body and rubbed its shell against the back of the chair behind it. As soon as Xun Ge sat down, it immediately said, "Que Que, do you know?"
Yu Xunge asked in surprise, "She dropped out of school too?"
Crab: "No, but she's not very popular at school. In the last two years, no team has been willing to take her, even though she's very strong."
Yu Xunge immediately put down the Moo Moo Milk in her hand and said firmly, "I knew it! I knew it the first time I saw her a few years ago!"
"What do you know?"
A somewhat familiar voice sounded behind her. Heavy rain fell on Yu Xunge's head, instantly soaking her carefully styled hair, making it look like it had been licked by a cow.
Three seconds later, the immobilization skill from Bo Mang was lifted, and Yu Xunge, who was finally able to move, raised her hand to wipe the rain off her face. This was not a skill, so the bubble she had used in advance because she sensed something was wrong had no effect on this thing.
She gave Queque, who sat down to her left, a fake smile that seemed even more miserable than that of her mentor, Songgui, and said, "What do you think?"
A waiter at the Thief Insect Tavern ran over and placed a strange object on the ground. Rainwater would be automatically absorbed into the yellow sponge a second before it hit the floor.
Compared to the fishing competition a few years ago, Queque, who hadn't been seen for three years, had changed a lot, just like Wuren and Fengtang.
It's not just a change in appearance, but also a change in aura; everyone has become stronger.
The rain overhead disappeared without warning and suddenly turned into heavy snow. Queque skillfully pulled the waterproof hood up behind her back, revealing a head of frizzy, messy, sea-blue short hair.
Compared to her previous dreamy and cool ice blue hair, her hair color is now darker, which means that her spell damage and ability to control the celestial phenomena are also greater than before.
The Celestial Clan is truly a race that can't hide anything in any aspect.
Despite Xun Ge's disapproving look, Que Que called over a waiter to order her a coffee, then pointed at Xun Ge and said, "Put it on her tab."
Yu Xunge was silent for a few seconds, then interlaced her fingers under her nose, trying to create a sense of pressure. She looked at Taoyou and Xiexie seriously: "...Are there any other options?"
Crab said to Grapefruit, "Can you stop poking me? It's no use. I activated that skill, didn't you hear the wind chimes? Can't you be a little more magnanimous? Look, Xun Ge is sitting right across from me, did I hit her?!"
Yu Xunge disregarded table manners. She bent her right leg and raised her toes, showing Taoyou her boots, which were full of holes, made by crab claws.
Crab stammered for a moment, then exclaimed loudly, "...It wasn't from being beaten!"
Grapefruit, her face dark, put away the knife and answered Xun Ge's question earlier: "No."
Queque leaned back in her chair, curled her lips at Xun Ge, and gave her a very annoying smile. She didn't say a word, but her sarcasm was palpable.
Crab added, "There's another teammate, you'll have to wait a bit... Oh, he's here."
Yu Xunge turned around and saw a pale-skinned, delicate-faced, thin boy standing behind her. He looked so familiar. Oh, she had beaten this person up before!
Yu Lu sat down to Xun Ge's right, beckoned to the waiter, and pointed at Xun Ge: "A glass of juice, put it on her tab."
Yu Xunge's gaze swept back and forth between Queque on his left and Yulu on his right a few times before he asked Taoyou, who was sitting in the high chair opposite him, very seriously: "Do I look like I have a good temper?"
"The main thing is that everyone knows you are the richest. The news that you stole 170,000 gold coins from Bo Mang during yesterday's competition has already spread. You know Mo Ji, from last night to today, every time he reports his and Bo Mang's savings, he adds, 'How do you know that the 170,000 we are missing was stolen by Xun Ge?'"
After explaining this sentence, Taoyou called over the waiter who had just delivered the juice, ordered several signature dishes, and pointed at Xunge: "Put it on her tab."
Yu Xunge didn't care. She knew this would happen when she got the money, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly. She also didn't expect that the money they made from mining and selling the ore would end up in Bo Mang's possession.
She waved her hand helplessly: "Order whatever you like."
It's true that you don't feel the pinch when you spend money that isn't your own.
She looked at Queque and Yulu, who were starting to order food, with a headache, knowing that if nothing unexpected happened, these two would be her teammates in the team competition.
Putting personality aside, she was indeed satisfied with both of her teammates.
Needless to say, she lacks skill. Back in her second year, before she even participated in the Gods' Game, she was already a favorite to win the Insect Thief Tavern competition. She was the champion of last year's fun competition.
As for his language skills, regardless of whether he was weak before, he has already tricked the God-given talent of muteness into giving him his hands, so his strength should not be weak.
This team just seems disorganized no matter how you look at it.
Let's not even talk about Crab and Grapefruit; they teamed up specifically for close-range backstabbing.
Since sitting down, Queque has looked at the lantern and ship's wheel on the back of her hand a total of 47 times.
Not to mention the rules of language, the reason he couldn't find a team was because during last year's team competition, his team had the best chance of winning, but he directly abandoned the team's interests for the sake of the Dark God-given talent skill.
I couldn't think of a better option after thinking it over and over.
At least this team is stronger than the Maple Syrup team.
She held up a glass of Moo Moo Milk: "This Mango and Spinach treat is on me, to Mango and Spinach!"
Coffee cups, juice glasses, and wine glasses all crowded around.
"Homage to the spinach!"
"Homage to the spinach!"
"Homage to the spinach!"
"Homage to the spinach!"
Having heard that Xun Ge was here, Bo Mang rushed over. As soon as he stepped into the Thief Insect Tavern, he heard his own name called.
She took a deep breath, raised her right hand and slowly clenched it into a fist. Amidst the cracking sound of her fist being clenched, she said to Maple Syrup beside her in a trembling voice of anger, "You have to kill her!"
Maple Syrup: "..."
She genuinely admired the ability to get people angry by bringing wine and songs to someone's door...
