Chapter 76-76- The teacher is still very gentle
Summer downpours come and go quickly. After a downpour like the upside-down ocean, less than an hour later, the rain had thinned out. While still cold and rapid, it had subsided to a steady drizzle, rippling the surface of a deep lake.
Faced with the little black dragon's sincere plea, Yvette said nothing, but nodded lightly to show her agreement, and then used the "regeneration pump" that had not been used for a long time to start healing Dugrabi.
With the help of the upgraded regeneration pump, Dugrabi's flesh wounds caused by the mountain whale's strange spell healed quickly, and his spirit became much stronger.
It hesitated for a moment, then said in a respectful yet tentative tone, "So from now on...should I call you Master?"
"Call the teacher."
"Okay." Dugrabi nodded, feeling a little happy, but then immediately became depressed and asked, "Can I still go back?"
"Um?"
"I failed to protect Jasmine. Can I...can I really go back? Will the villagers be angry?"
"Let's post something first. Maybe there will be other discoveries."
"What can we find here..." Dugrabi was a little resistant. Although he did not witness the whole process of Jasmine's death with his own eyes, when he flew out from underground to look for her, he accidentally saw the remains of an alchemical creature scattered all over the ground, along with an iconic wreath, in the corner.
To the Black Dragon, who was face-blind when it came to alchemical creations, this wreath explained everything.
Asking it to go back now would only allow it to see the "corpse" more clearly.
But Dugrabi dared not disobey the teacher's order. He could only hang his head with many complicated emotions such as heaviness, shame, and fear of seeing people, and let the teacher jump onto his back. Then, with his wings spread, he carried the teacher into the rainy night and came to the ruins of a military base where flashlights were flashing.
"Hey! Miss Kindhearted, you found it!" Seeing Yvette casting illumination magic on the back of the black dragon, Bingyu waved happily while standing on the ground.
After landing, Dugrabi saw Bingyu, Roller, Soap and others approaching from the darkness. He turned his head away in embarrassment, prepared to endure the abuse.
But it never expected that a voice that it had never expected also came from not far away.
"Mr. Long? Are you okay? I'm so glad!"
Douglas froze as if struck by lightning. He turned his head in astonishment and saw another little puppet emerge from the flashlight, with a dirty but familiar wreath on its head.
"You...are you a human or a ghost?! How come you are okay?!" Dugrabi let out a terrified dragon roar.
"Oh my god! It's talking!" Bingyu, Gundan and Soap were all shocked. They had been breathed on whenever they got close to it before, and they had never heard the Black Dragon speak human language - although the accent was a bit strange, it was indeed the Black Tide language.
This dragon can actually speak human language?!
Jasmine was a little confused. She said, "I'm fine... I just fell and passed out... What's wrong, Mr. Long?"
"No... this is not right..." Dugrabi was confused. It suddenly thought of something and rushed to a place in the ruins. When it opened the ruins, it saw the shattered remains of a puppet.
But unlike Little Jasmine, although this wreckage is also covered with rust, a closer look reveals that its style is slightly different and there are many differences in the details.
"You...you..." Dugrabi felt like he was about to faint. What was going on?
"We found little Jasmine right next to here," Bingyu said, pointing to a small pit nearby. "For some reason, there happened to be a pit here, and she fell in and fainted, and was covered by the stone slab. We found her wreath lying nearby, so we searched for her and soon found her."
“……?”
Dugrabi was petrified. Happiness came too suddenly and it was hard for it to accept it for a while.
So Jasmine didn't die, it just had face blindness when it came to puppets, and when it saw the combination of the garland and the debris, it misunderstood?
This misunderstanding caused it to explode with excitement, and it chased away four mountain whales. Then, heartbroken, it ran to a nearby lake, where it remained autistic from day to night?
"By the way, it was Miss Kindhearted who discovered this first. She found Jasmine first, and then found you." Bingyu added.
Dougrabi's expression was even more interesting. It looked at Jasmine, the other puppets, and then at Yvette. It swallowed and asked in a low voice with a somewhat embarrassed and somewhat shameful tone, "Teacher...you...already knew it?"
No wonder the teacher reacted so calmly just now and didn't feel sad at all about Jasmine's death.
It had thought that the Silver Witch, as a deity, was inherently ruthless and not as loyal as the dragons... Well, it turned out that it was the only one who was kept in the dark!
Yvette nodded.
"Why didn't you say it earlier!" Dugrabi felt ashamed when he thought about how miserable he was just now. He had lost all the face of the dragon clan.
——What a wicked witch! She must be deliberately trying to make me look bad!
It hates it!
"I hope you remember this more clearly." A serious look appeared on Yvette's beautiful face. "You were lucky today, but can you always be so lucky? Do you want to save this loss for later?"
Dugrabi was speechless.
It suddenly thought, no wonder the teacher suddenly started asking questions by the lake and guiding it to reflect on itself... It turned out that the teacher had been teaching it since then.
Although it was not the kind of class that would make it invincible as it had imagined, it felt that such a class seemed to make people feel the instructor's intentions better than regular combat courses.
Well, it decided to take back the disrespectful thought it just had.
——The witch teacher is still very gentle, and in terms of teacher ethics, she is far superior to my father.
…
When the night rain stops and the dark clouds disperse, the bright moonlight and stars appear on the sky, forming a vast and magnificent scene that makes people feel excited.
Standing on the black dragon's back, feeling the evening breeze, Yvette quickly reviewed the entire process of the day in her mind, confirming whether there were any details that were missed.
Although it was very sudden, she had actually been planning this investigation a year ago.
For example, they investigated which locations were around the mountain whale's movement path, which places would become high-probability areas for being attacked by mountain whales, and set up some hidden cameras - all of which were parts removed from the heads of abandoned puppets, combined with energy storage boards, element chips and some recycled functional modules, which can serve as a simple monitoring probe.
After the mountain whale appeared and approached the abandoned military base where Dugrabi and the others were, she rushed over immediately, but deliberately did not show her head. Instead, she hid in the shadows and used wind magic, earth magic, and thunder magic to coordinate with each other, quietly completing a series of micro-operations such as "taking off Jasmine's wreath", "creating a pit to trip her", "knocking her with a weak electric current", "covering and modifying it with cement boards", and "dropping the wreckage of the puppet".
In the end, they successfully created a misunderstanding that Jasmine was suspected to be dead, which gave Dugrabi a great psychological shock - anyway, with his puppet face blindness, he should not be able to distinguish the differences in details on the wreckage without anyone reminding him.
However, in her original plan, she intended to wait a while before making her heroic appearance. After all, the four mountain whales were still very strong, and she needed to take the initiative to step forward, complete the last step of education, and then reveal the fact that Xiao Jasmine was not dead.
But what was unexpected was that as the dragon prince, Dugrabi had great potential. In a rage, he actually drove away the four mountain whales by himself. After driving them away, he did not come back, leaving the three fainted little puppets there, and ran to the edge of a lake, EMO until night.
Yvette waited for a long time, and seeing that it didn't move, she returned directly to the Puppet Kingdom, and then went out with everyone to search and rescue, completing the last step of the investigation plan.
I can only say that she planned and waited for a whole year just for an inspection. It would be difficult to find another teacher in the world who is as dedicated as her.
…
Soon, the black dragon and the children's expedition team were brought back safely, and the puppet life of the Kux family soon returned to peace.
There are so many interesting parts hidden in this story that can be explored, such as the fact that the vicious Mr. Dragon is actually kind at heart, that Mr. Dragon can actually speak but always pretends not to understand, and that Mr. Dragon is actually so powerful... In short, for a long time afterwards, Dugrabi's various contrasting performances have become a topic of conversation among the residents of the Puppet Kingdom.
But Dugrabi didn't feel so happy. After all, the dragon system had collapsed. What was the difference between this and social death?
Fortunately, it has become well-behaved now and follows the teacher to learn the obscure basic rune knowledge every day. This gives it a good excuse to hide in the large warehouse where the RVs are parked and not go out.
But the progress is still a bit slow. I often faint while learning. When I open my eyes again, I can still see those terrifying and complicated runes flying around in front of my eyes. It is almost turning into a nightmare.
