The system update had taken too long, so Xiao He drifted off to sleep in a daze.
When he opened his eyes again, there was a strange man's face right in front of him.
"ah!"
Both of them were startled.
Who are you?!
"Me." The stranger, momentarily flustered, pushed up his non-existent glasses with his thumb.
Upon seeing this, Xiao He immediately rolled his eyes.
This iconic move can only be done by Yang Xing, nicknamed "Four-Eyed Dog".
"Why did you suddenly come?" Xiao He scratched his head and realized that he had logged into Xiao He's account.
"Suddenly?" Yang Xing placed the Nuojin calendar in front of it: "I've been here for almost three months, okay?!"
"Three months?!" Xiao He jumped out of bed in a flash. "Holy crap! Where am I? What happened?"
"It's said that the city lord found a forbidden spell priest to revive you. Later, you didn't wake up, and we found that you had been sleeping in the studio all day. Your character was just sitting there, neither leaving the group nor showing any other reaction."
“They said they were going to run a lap, so I brought you here.” Yang Xing added, “Oh, and this is the Flying Dragon No. 1 Research Institute, your dragon cub is here too.”
"Flying...Flying Dragon One?" Xiao He was completely bewildered, and only when he walked to the window did he get a fright.
It was practically a high-tech submarine floating in the air, with the familiar Flying Dragon City right below.
"Yes, Lei Zi has also joined Yunduan. They've all entered the Central Academy. Because of the century-long revival, the Central Academy has moved to the city. Flying Dragon City is relatively crowded right now. They were worried that it wouldn't be safe for you to be alone in the school building, so they entrusted you to me to look after."
"Damn! So you're really just going to keep watching like that?!" Xiao He looked at Yang Xing like he was an idiot.
"What?!" Yang Xing pushed up his "glasses" again: "I only came to see what's wrong with you because I heard you laughing!"
"What am I laughing at?" Xiao He asked suspiciously.
"How would I know..." Yang Xing returned to the lab table guiltily, trying not to let Xiao He see his embarrassment.
His account name is "Yang Xing". He was originally a down-on-his-luck young man in his twenties. After Yang Xing took over, he transformed into a "high-tech mechanical engineer".
"By the way, it seems your level has been reset to zero." Yang Xing said without turning his head, fiddling with the thing in his hand.
"Yes, I know." Xiao He rubbed his temples. That self-destructive redemption move not only destroyed the weapon, but also the "experience bar".
Without the elemental vortex, he was completely unable to control the elements, making him no different from an ordinary person.
Fortunately, the team had been running missions for the past three months, and many of these missions directly rewarded players with character levels.
Only by using the "three-to-one" strategy within the team could they barely manage to bring his level back to level 20.
However, everyone was already over fifty and preparing to break through the threshold of becoming a high-level elementalist.
"This won't do. I have to do the Netherworld quest." Xiao He suppressed his frustration. Since he had made the choice, he had to find a way to keep up with the progress.
"What Netherworld mission?" Yang Xing was unaware of his communication with the Netherworld.
"Just consider it compensation for the bug."
"Oh, hey, your teacher said that when you wake up, you should go to the Central Court to find her." Yang Xing tossed over a map with handwritten markings by Honglian on it.
"OK, got it."
Xiao He whistled, and Angelina jumped off the spaceship.
After three months, the little dragon cub had grown to almost the height of a person, but its body was still somewhat thin, making its wings appear exceptionally large.
Xiao He switched back to his Cloud School uniform with a single click, then straddled Angelina's neck, and the two of them flew towards the Cloud Courtyard.
Angrina's existence was granted special permission by the Lord of Dragon City.
Xiaohe is a hero of Flying Dragon City. Even her qualification for the Central Academy was specially approved on the same day, and all fees of the Fifth Branch Academy were waived.
The people on the ground were still somewhat stunned when they saw the shadow of the dragon cub swooping down.
Following the school rules of the Cloud School, Xiao He did not fly directly across the boundary into the academy, but instead landed properly at the school gate.
If Xiao He, who had been carefully dressed up by Hong Lian, resembled a delicate doll, Xiao He, now with his long hair casually draped over his shoulders, exuded a sense of indifference and unruliness, clearly displaying "don't mess with me" on his face.
The weapon provided by the system is a horizontal sword called "Neither Dead Nor Alive," which depends on Xiao He's talent skill switching.
Because Xiao He was only 1.5 meters tall, he couldn't hang the 89cm long sword on his waist, so Xiao He could only carry it on his back or hold it in his hand.
"Beep, student card."
Xiao He strode into the school gate under the watchful eyes of several people.
After integrating the junior and senior high schools, Cloud Academy has renovated many of its buildings.
The original Flying Dragon City had very few tall buildings. Over the past three months, the earth elementalists have been working day and night to transform the entire city into this "futuristic technology city".
It is said that the planner was none other than the mysterious Professor Yang from the "Flying Dragon No. 1"!
Yang Xing's standing in the hearts of the people has long surpassed that of the Lord of Flying Dragon City. If he hadn't been uninterested in politics, the city lord would probably have been replaced by someone else.
Angelina could no longer lean on Xiao He's shoulder, and could only hop and skip along beside him.
Dragons are good at flying and jumping, but not good at walking on flat ground, so they look quite comical.
They didn't encounter many people along the way, because Flying Dragon City had returned to normal.
People's lives and students' studies are the same as before. What's different is the added sense of urgency; it's no longer the leisurely and carefree life of the past.
