Extra (3)
After arriving at Bailu City in the evening, He Guang passed the identity authentication and successfully activated the teleportation array to return to the central city.
Central City.
The architecture and clothing of the people in the second world are not much different in style from those in the first world, except that the elements are more Chinese classical, which seems to add a bit of elegance to this eerie and heavy world.
At the same time, from time to time, carriages pulled by docile spirit beasts passed by Shen Mengze and his friends, giving them a deeper sense of fantasy as if they had arrived in another world.
There are also many vendors setting up stalls on the streets selling things, such as embroidered kites, knives and ornaments made from the fur, teeth and bones of monsters.
This bustling scene reminded Shanzha of the temple fair in the village, but he also noticed that even the children playing and chasing each other looked well-trained.
A minute ago, he watched helplessly as a little boy of about five or six years old flipped over a jewelry stall that was half the height of a person, causing the vendor to yell at him, "You little bastard, be careful!"
Soon, they arrived at He Guang's home.
Her house is very big, which seems to be nonsense, because a big family cannot accommodate people if the house is not big enough.
This place is vast and sparsely populated. Compared to the fashionable and unique architectural style of the first world, the second world tends to be more unified, broad, solid and heavy. But when they really stood at the gate of the Wako family, they still felt like Cardcaptor Sakura, standing at her best friend Chise's house for the first time.
A residential area stretches as far as the eye can see, surrounded by lush greenery and white snow, with a solemn and desolate feel.
The guard at the door bowed immediately when he saw He Guang, "Miss."
Then he bowed to the guests behind him, making Youyi and the others feel as if they were traveling through time and space.
He Guang nodded naturally, "It's been a long time since we last met. I'm relieved that you are all safe and healthy."
The guard also showed a nostalgic look, "The young lady has grown taller too."
After a few words, the person who was waiting at the door led the group inside.
Along the way, people saluted and greeted He Guang from time to time. Most of their eyes were the same as those of the guards at the door, full of affection and nostalgia, but also absolute admiration.
He Guang hadn't been home for almost two years. He looked around excitedly from time to time, unaware of the complicated feelings of his friends behind him.
The style inside the house is also very inclined towards the ancient style of the Flower Kingdom, with pavilions and towers of all kinds. The winding corridors are so long that it is easy to get lost, and the first thing to greet them are kittens of various colors.
The black and white cat and the orange cat came over meowing. Anyone who likes small animals or cute things would be tempted. Even Shanzha couldn't help but look a little nervous, so he squatted down and touched the black kitten's head.
Chen Mengze now sees everyone as a cat, but he still can't move his feet when he sees a real cat. Several people are almost completely immersed in the joy of petting cats.
Just listen to He Guang's enthusiastic introduction, "Student Chen, the cats in our second world are very similar to those in the first world, and this is their adult stage. They are the natural enemies of small monsters such as heart-eating monsters. They can kill one with one claw, and they are very clingy and docile. Basically every family will raise some.
The cats in this world are too cool and don’t even let me touch them.”
He Guang said this in a wronged tone as he held a fat, round orange cat that was obviously larger than its peers in his arms and stroked its fur.
Others: Is this really a cat?
They had dreamy expressions on their faces, with the words "kill with one claw" repeating over and over again in their minds.
"People are not as good as cats!" Youyi sighed.
Hawthorn glanced at him and nodded in agreement, "People are not as good as cats."
Wait, why are you looking at me? Are you a repeater? Zhan Wuzha Youyi felt the malice from the world.
Shanzha took a few quick steps to Heguang's side, "Sister Heguang, I saw a golden layer of light above the house. Is that a barrier?"
He Guang smiled and responded, "Yes, although the central city is safe, there are still cases where monsters sneak in by bypassing the defensive formation outside the city. Not everyone can protect themselves, so the main houses of the major families in the central city are equipped with barriers or small formations."
As they were talking, they were taken to the back garden, and they heard a voice eagerly saying, "My baby, you are back. Uncle missed you so much."
The content sounded like that of Elder Heguang, but the soft childish voice and the fat baby flying out...hmm, everyone fell into a mysterious silence again.
Maybe it’s because of his seniority?
He Guang looked like he wanted to hold her like a fat baby in his arms, but he couldn't complete this difficult move, so he had to settle for the next best thing and hug her thighs.
Her expression was a little strange, "Uncle, your curse hasn't been lifted yet?"
The fat kid looked about four or five years old, wearing a fitted Tang suit, and a look of carelessness flashed across his soft white face, "It will be ready soon, in another half a year.
People make mistakes, horses stumble, and uncle was careless, didn't he? I regret it now!"
It turned out that he was cursed by a high-level monster. Just like a girl welcoming her relatives, he would rejuvenate for a few days every month.
Fat baby, no, the uncle was embarrassed for a moment when he saw the classmate behind He Guang, but then he thought it was a trivial matter and let it go with a broad mind.
"You must be friends from the same world. Thanks to you for taking care of Xiaoguang during these days in the other world." He said in a childish but serious voice.
Everyone was about to say something modest, especially when it came to taking care of them, and generally speaking, it was He Guang who saved them, when they heard He Guang say, "Uncle, don't call me Xiao Guang, it reminds me of Xiao Ming, Xiao Hong and Xiao Qiang in the textbook."
[Hahahaha Xiaoguang]
[Actually, Xiaoguang sounds pretty good]
[Wow, the host’s hometown is so magical]
The uncle smiled mysteriously, "Which do you prefer, darling or baby?"
Of course, no matter what he said, he still respected his niece's wishes and started calling her Guangguang.
"My young lady and several distinguished guests must be tired from the journey. Please invite them in to have a cup of hot tea first!" The speaker was a lady who looked very young. She was wearing clothes with ancient elements, but they looked more convenient for movement. The most elegant bamboo was embroidered on the cuffs and lapels.
She had just walked out with her uncle Feipu, and had been standing beside them with a smile on her face. When she spoke, everyone subconsciously looked at her, and couldn't help but marvel at her beauty in their hearts.
[Wow, this sister is so beautiful]
She led the group into the house and He Guang introduced them, "This is my uncle, He Lan. But he is now cursed by a high-level monster. He looks only four or five years old. I grew up with my uncle when I was a child."
"This is the Orange girl who took care of me growing up."
Miss Orange served hot tea and snacks to the guests, her movements as graceful as flowing water. She just smiled when she heard the words, "The young lady has made new friends in the other world and is very happy. This makes us feel relieved."
[I also want to be taken care of by a beautiful woman]
[Miss, look at me]
Seeing the audience's interest in Miss Orange, He Guangjian immediately introduced her to them, "Miss Orange is amazing. She is also my teacher. She taught me many things. Unfortunately, I haven't learned how to make beautiful clothes and delicious snacks."
She looked very regretful.
"She's smart and can do everything. I wish I could be half as smart as Orange Girl."
[The anchor really wants to be smarter every day]
[If I had half the host's combat power, I would wake up laughing in my dreams]
[Looking at the host's appearance, she must have grown up with Miss Orange and her little uncle. They were raised by two gentle and caring people. No wonder the host is so gentle.]
He Guang tilted his head, "Are my uncle and I gentle?"
Miss Orange's attitude was very friendly, and she quickly put the guests from afar at ease. He Guang enthusiastically asked about the family's situation.
Miss Orange smiled, "The eldest lady has returned at the right time. Now that the family has taken over the task of guarding the barrier, except for the clan members who are responsible for guarding the main house, everyone else is busy outside, and even the clan leader rarely comes back. Now that the eldest lady is back, everyone in the clan will feel much more at ease."
The central city is the most important habitat of the two worlds and the last line of defense for human survival. Its importance is comparable to the capital of the first world. It is the safest place, so those who stay there to garrison must be masters.
The uncle hugged He Guang's arm with his fat arms like lotus roots. Of course, he actually wanted a caring hug from an elder, but his physical condition did not allow it, so it looked more like he was just acting like a spoiled child.
He snorted. "My precious niece just came back and they want to order her to work. There's no way."
Miss Orange smiled gently, "Young lady, a master of your level certainly doesn't need to act rashly. She just needs to stay in the main house. There are still monsters that haven't hibernated roaming outside the city, and everyone in the central city is still very uneasy!"
He Guang just stuffed the cake into his mouth and was about to take the second piece, but he paused after hearing this, "Is it the winter beast tide?"
Beast tides rarely occur in winter, but once they occur, they should not be taken lightly.
Miss Orange said, "It's just a disturbance caused by a few high-level monsters. There is no sign of a beast tide at the moment. You don't have to worry."
It didn't seem like Kazumitsu was dealing with this kind of situation for the first time, so he was very calm, "Well, I'll protect you all, too."
As for the others, their impression of the situation in the two worlds was that the living environment was harsh and monsters were rampant. They could not get a word in, so they just quietly drank the fruit tea prepared by the host and ate snacks.
Probably not wanting to leave the guests out in the cold, Miss Orange quickly changed the subject, and the group began chatting about interesting or strange stories from other worlds.
The uncle was also very interested. "I didn't expect the First World to be so dangerous. It used to be recognized by the Seven Worlds as the most peaceful world. I didn't expect it to be so hidden."
Chen Mengze from another world smiled, Mo Liuying lowered her eyes, You Yi was speechless, Shanzha was silent, "..."
It turns out that hiding one's true potential can be used in this way.
"I just don't know if the spiritual power we cultivate can be useful to the ghosts in this world?" The uncle said in a serious tone as if he was having an academic exchange.
He Guang said, "Although the power systems of each world are different, they can still cause damage to a certain extent. One force can defeat ten skills!
Moreover, the power system of the first world is very similar to that of our second world, but the masters over there are now dying out.
But most of the ghosts are pretty weak, and I haven’t used my spiritual power much.”
Shanzha had a complicated expression, "..."
Very weak.
The uncle said excitedly, "The First Realm is quite interesting. I also want to go and have a look. Moreover, after this incident, the First Realm seems to want to have a technical exchange with us. Their technology is more advanced than ours, but our spiritual power training and combat effectiveness are recognized by the Seven Realms. I will be a cross-realm ambassador when the time comes."
When he said this, he was as excited as a child welcoming a new life.
The Orange Lady struck back mercilessly, "You cannot leave the main house until the curse is lifted."
He Guang seemed to be inspired by something, clapped his hands and said, "Actually, I also have a brilliant idea. The main reason why I brought a few friends back this time is also for this."
Before she came back, she had thought about bringing her friends back with her and making sure they got enough training in the Second Realm.
Student Shen is quite skilled, and after the restrictions on his body disappear, his strength will definitely be stronger than what he has shown at this stage, but actual combat experience generally requires more training.
Classmate Youyi is not very skilled, and even fifty of them are not enough for me to beat... ahem, classmate Mo is weaker than the average person and needs recuperation.
She thought about this and said to Orange Girl, "I want to ask the elders of the tribe for help. Several of my classmates have had rough experiences, so I have always wanted to change their current situation."
The best thing people can rely on to change their destiny is their own strength.
She didn't need to explain it too clearly, she believed that Miss Orange could arrange it.
Sure enough, Miss Orange looked at them softly and smiled, "Miss, please rest assured and leave it to me."
He Guang nodded and patted Shanzha's shoulder vigorously, "This kid is a master I met in another world. He is very powerful and helped us a lot."
[Yes, I am worried about this for a long time like an old father]
[Hahaha, Hawthorn Boss’s daily eldership, passively taking advantage]
[The host praised him as a master. Shanzha has extraordinary skills at a young age]
[That’s right, I’m a fan of the boss, the fight in Liwan was so cool]
"It's a pity that the elder who taught him the mysterious arts has passed away. Later, this child taught himself, which is amazing. But I think it is difficult for him to cultivate his spiritual power on his own. If the elders in the clan can guide him, he will soon become a real master." He Guang continued.
By that time, when Hawthorn's spiritual power is strong enough to be transformed into a tangible form, it will not be too difficult to create a barrier or set up an array.
He Guang used all her strength in fighting. She was good at high-level attacks and was not proficient in technical defense. She did not dare to mislead her disciples, but other people in the clan were proficient in this and they could teach Shanzha.
"What do you think? Hawthorn."
Shanzha was originally quite embarrassed by her praise and managed to keep his expression gloomy.
It would be great if he could improve his abilities, but Shanzha also didn't want to experience the feeling of being powerless. He was very touched that Heguang had thought of everything for them.
Although she has a strong desire to protect, she understands better than anyone that a person's safest shield is always his or her own ability.
"I'll do whatever you say, Sister Kazuhiko."
Of course, the others also understood He Guang’s concern for them. Although their reactions on the surface were different, they were all deeply touched in their hearts.
Then I heard He Guang say, "After this winter vacation, I believe you will be completely transformed, but classmate You Yi should leave it to me! Don't worry, I will teach you well and won't let you be lazy."
Youyi: Wait, why are you emphasizing me?
As Youyi looked at Heguang's friendly eyes, an ominous premonition rose to its peak in his heart. He remembered the fear of being pressed to the ground and rubbed by Heguang during the summer vacation.
