Chapter 67 Endless Learning Journey (4) Jinjiang exclusive authorized first release...
That wasn't what she meant at all.
She calls him "Miss Annie" all the time and uses excessive politeness to distance themselves from each other, but when she really thinks of something that can be exchanged, she opens her mouth with this. What kind of image does she have in Ling Xiao's mind?
Annie was a little confused. She felt soft vines wrapped around her arms and sides. The vines were very tender, as if they had just sprouted and grown.
The special piece of skin on his waist rubbed against the thin vine for a while, and a crack appeared under the pink tattoo, which suddenly wrapped around the tip of the vine under the cover of the quilt.
Ling Xiao bit his lip and lowered his head.
He knew what it was... and few knew it better than he.
In the darkness, a pair of green eyes were looking in this direction. It was the snake girl. She She's tail made a rustling sound in the quilt. It was the sound of scales rubbing against the fabric, which made people feel inexplicably sticky.
A hissing sound was accompanied by a crawling sound.
The body in Annie's arms became very stiff, even the tip of the vine was bent, and it was too panicked to move.
It seems that Ling Xiao is really afraid of snakes.
Ani kissed his eyes, but he couldn't see that his eyeballs were trembling rapidly under his thin eyelids and his weak breathing fell into her ears. She said softly: "It's free..."
She seemed to be really thinking.
Ling Xiao let her lips imprint on the corner of his eye. In this situation, he still had room for refusal and bargaining, but the moment she repeated this sentence, the blood in his body began to flow rapidly, his face became hot, and a feeling of sourness and shame filled his heart, striking his already fragile self-esteem again and again.
...It's more important to survive. He knows.
Ani glanced downwards and clearly saw his bitten lips with bloody marks. She used her fingertips to block the tips of her clenched teeth and gently wiped away the thin layer of blood on her lips: "It seems that I am more reliable than others in your heart."
The snake's crawling sound became louder and louder.
His keen hearing made him quite afraid of such sounds. Ling Xiao curled up again. He couldn't help hiding in Ani's arms, his body huddled against the wall... It was not shameful to admit that she was strong and reliable. He said softly, "I have never seen anyone more powerful than you."
If only he could be a little more gentle in bed.
Annie looked at him with a smile but didn't answer. Her tentacles wrapped around several scarred vines in the quilt, and pink nectar smeared over every crack on the green vines.
He was too hurt to refuse such an offer. Ling Xiao subconsciously raised his hand to cover his mouth to prevent himself from making any unbearable sounds.
On the other side, the sound of a snake crawling had already spread to the bedposts.
Ani tried her best to cover Ling Xiao with the quilt, leaving half of his shoulders exposed. She turned her head to look at She She who was about to climb up from below.
Only half of her body is a snake, and the upper half is human. She She's dark green eyes met hers for two seconds, and she intuitively realized that this roommate was not someone to be trifled with.
Then she opened her mouth and spit out a hissing sound. Snake collected more information to help her judge Ani's strength. After two seconds, She She tried to make a friendly expression.
But her mouth was split behind her ears, and this friendly expression was almost intimidating.
Ani stared at her in silence. She She was a little at a loss. She judged the relationship between the two and tried to show kindness: "I didn't know that was your friend."
Ani said, "Now you know."
She She: "Don't be angry, he was already injured when I met him. If I hadn't shown up, there would have been more students who wanted to eat him. Luckily it was me. I have principles and only want to eat him whole."
She smiled, her sharp fangs gleaming in the faint moonlight.
She She continued, "Don't let your friend wander around at night. There is no place safer than the dormitory. If they are caught by patrolling guards outside, they will disappear into thin air without even a body fragment. In the dormitory, at least they just need to avoid being discovered by the dormitory manager..."
Before she could finish her words, there was a sound of something heavy coming up the stairs in the corridor.
Sheshe listened attentively for a few seconds, and finally said, "It's coming."
The snake woman quickly climbed down and returned to her bed.
Annie stared at her back as she walked away, and listened attentively to the sound of someone coming up the stairs.
There were heavy footsteps, accompanied by the sound of chains or some metal being dragged, and a flashlight flashed through the corridor on the fourth floor.
Annie stopped and hugged Ling Xiao again, paying attention to the movement in the corridor.
The dormitory manager opened the door next door. His flashlight swung left and right in the dim dormitory, and he muttered in a low, hoarse voice as if it had been burned by fire: "One, two..."
Check the number of people.
Bang. The door is closed.
It opened the door opposite.
Opposite is dormitory 405, and the transparent door glass reflects the other person's appearance. It was a monster dragging an iron chain, its body pierced by a huge electric saw. Its body was made up of pieces of flesh piled up one after another, and it had no facial features. The features were replaced by a dormitory roster. Every time a dormitory was checked, the roster would automatically turn to the next page.
It carefully observes the people in the dormitory.
The flashlight illuminated the bed opposite. Dormitory 405 seems to be mostly populated by hunters.
It checked for about five minutes. In the extreme silence, only the heavy mopping sound of the dormitory manager's walking echoed in the empty corridor.
Suddenly, the flashlight turned around and shone through the glass into the dormitory.
The moment the light appeared, Zhang Mei, who was combing her hair on the ground, climbed onto the bed using her hands and feet and burrowed into the quilt like a gecko. Luo Rou, who was swinging her neck on the beam, deftly untied the white silk and fell onto her bed accurately in one go.
Ani: “…”
It turns out you are afraid too.
She checked one last time and made sure every vine of Ling Xiao was retracted and tucked in without missing any. Then she pretended to sleep with a natural look on her face.
The door rang.
The breathing in her arms almost stopped. Her hand gently pressed on Ling Xiao's back without applying any force. This gentle action made Ling Xiao feel some security, and his sense of presence was reduced to the extreme.
The flashlight moved across the room, and the hoarse voice gradually sounded: "One, two, three..."
There was a sudden pause before the last "four".
The dorm manager came closer.
The light enveloped the quilt, and the residual light reflected Ani's scattered hair. After the second maturity period, her hair color became closer to pink and white, and it reflected a little under the light.
It is so tall that you have to lower your head slightly to enter. Those eyes were embedded below the dormitory roster and were revealed as the pages were turned. The dormitory manager moved closer and closer, arched his neck, and stared at Ani carefully.
She could smell the other person's breath, which smelled of rust.
The breath came with a sharp gulp.
The voice was so close that Annie felt his face was about to touch the back of her head. She pretended to be awakened by the light and opened her eyes hazily.
It quickly retreated a fist's distance, its eyes stuck above the edge of the bed, and the two looked at each other.
Annie looked at the other person with a normal expression.
It stared at Annie's face. Her eyes were very clear, without any of the horror and fear that other freshmen showed. She looked like a completely innocent and cheerful female student.
The dormitory manager swallowed again.
It smiled at Annie, the list on its face was wrinkled, and then it slowly retreated, and the last name on the list was checked.
It left Dormitory 404, closed the door, and the sound of footsteps dragging on the chain faded away.
[Sleep well—Event has been triggered, exploration degree +1, teacher impression +1, current exploration degree 5%]
It was not until the dim light of the flashlight disappeared completely that Annie heard Ling Xiao's faint breathing. Sweat was oozing from his forehead, the roots of his soft hair were slightly damp, and his hands and feet were so weak that he could hardly get up.
She hugged him again. Ling Xiao had no intention of resisting. He climbed up her body softly, like a weak silk vine that had not seen the light for a long time, and put all his weight on her.
Ani once again ran her tentacle over his wound and whispered, "So soft."
"...What...?" Ling Xiao's voice was slightly hoarse.
"Flowers," she said.
His vines are not blooming now.
What she said... Ling Xiao reacted slowly, his pupils trembling suddenly. With their bodies fitting so closely together, Ani's knees were between her legs, so the two of them inevitably touched and hugged each other closely with every inch.
Annie just realized it.
It turned out that the thing pressing softly against her thigh was the flower. She reached down and easily touched the pollen tube adjacent to the calyx. Ling Xiao's purple eyelashes trembled a few times. He buried his head in the pillow and rubbed the edge of Annie's neck. He opened his mouth but did not bite her. Instead, he bit the back of his hand.
He bit too hard and the skin on the back of his hand was broken, and dew oozed out, giving off a plant-like scent.
Annie casually gathered it together, and a rich fragrance burst out, blending with the scent of the tentacles. She took her hand back, and there was a layer of shiny pollen on her palm. She rubbed the pollen on Ling Xiao's cheek: "I think I know how you pollinate."
"...Ms. Annie." He was about to cry, but he was very patient and tenacious and swallowed down his tears bit by bit, "Don't make such... such jokes again."
A Ni hugged him and stayed quiet for a while. She hugged Ling Xiao's waist and pulled him back when he moved secretly. She whispered seriously: "Don't move away, just stick to me."
"..." He said nothing and took a breath slowly.
He was wearing other pants, so they wouldn't...stain hers.
But this body always feels so out of control when it touches her, will it let her feel it through...
Ling Xiao's mind was in a mess. In his dodging and unwillingness to disobey, the extreme fatigue after the injury took over, and after an unknown amount of time, he fell asleep in Annie's arms.
Before dawn, Annie felt the body in her arms getting hotter and hotter. The little tentacles that tried to sneak in trembled from the heat. She pressed down the tentacles and squeezed them, then retracted them under her skin and raised her palm to touch the other's forehead.
There were too many traumas and I had a fever.
The vine leaves became wilted.
Ani pinched the other person's face, but Ling Xiao didn't wake up. He used his hands and feet to wrap around her, and the vines circled around her waist and back, making it impossible to separate them.
Annie reached out and touched his lower abdomen. The eggs in the ovary had squeezed all the seeds into a corner. She was about to check it carefully when the person in her arms suddenly woke up and subconsciously blocked her hand.
The corners of Ling Xiao's eyes were red, but his expression was still calm and indifferent: "Thank you for protecting me."
Ani looked at his expression. He didn't seem to be forcing himself. He always knew how to adapt to the situation and how to adapt to circumstances. Because he is such a person, it is particularly abnormal that he insists on drawing boundaries for himself and trying to create a sense of distance.
But she did not break the barrier, she took her hand back directly, and her tone suddenly became cold: "You're welcome, you can go now."
Ling Xiao was obviously stunned for a moment.
He immediately restrained his expression, quietly got up, used the dormitory facilities to wash up, and secretly crawled away through the small skylight.
These wilted vines could only climb the walls very slowly, and Ani thought he was going to fall several times.
But in the end, nothing happened. She didn't hear any unusual noises, nor did she see any vines that could fall off the wall after climbing it. That would be too pathetic.
About ten minutes after Ling Xiao left, Annie counted the supplies on her body and the things in her bag. She didn't go to the cafeteria to eat breakfast, but directly put a bag of nutrient solution in her pocket and washed up in the bathroom.
The rustling sound of crawling stopped at the door. Ani glanced in the mirror and saw She She leaning against the door frame.
Her waist was half human and half snake, and at this moment it made a very regular S-curve. She She showed a conflicted expression, and after a while she said, "Can I go to class with you?"
Ani wiped her face clean and raised her hand to tie her hair. She asked, "Why do you want to go with me?"
She She hesitated for a moment: "You look...protective of your friends. I want to be friends with you."
Some were actually delivered to my door.
Ani nodded in agreement. The snake girl in the mirror grinned, then rustled over to the side and sorted her schoolbag.
[Harmonious roommates go to class together - event has been triggered, exploration degree +1, student reputation +1, roommate She She's favorability +10, current exploration degree 6%]
[Congratulations to contestant Annie for completing the Harmonious Roommate series of tasks. Uniting classmates is the first step to being a good student. Excellent student reputation can reduce students' obstacles to you. The harmony degree of dormitory 404 is +10. When the harmony degree of a place is higher than 50, it will become a safe house and no malicious NPCs will be refreshed in the area. 】
Safe house?
In this test area, everything has to be explored. Annie understood the literal meaning and thought it should be a good thing.
After Ling Xiao fell asleep last night, she tried to digitize her thoughts to detect the surrounding environment - this is not a stable area like Eden, there is turbulence everywhere.
As soon as she detected it, she immediately received a warning from the angel.
His data stream covers the surroundings, providing live monitoring of each player. He felt Ani's change the first time, and the two exchanged data very quickly.
[The Mother Goddess will find you.] 】
[If she finds you here, you will never be able to leave. 】
Annie decisively interrupted the exploration.
She didn't want to face the god of the intelligent machine race yet, even though the "Mother Goddess"'s super brain was far away on Tianmu Star.
Ani gathered her things and put her textbooks in her backpack. The textbooks at Crescent Private Academy are a stack of cards. You just need to place the card on the reader on the desk to see the content on your personal screen.
This kind of card is specially made, different from the chip, and is a means of knowledge storage between ancient books and star network documents. She had seen it when she was in high school in the Third District, but she no longer used it when she arrived at Hailan University.
She and She She are both in Class 19, while Zhang Mei and Luo Rou are in the next class, Class 20.
It was a rare harmonious scene of four people going to the classroom together. The weaker students nearby consciously avoided them. Occasionally, a hunter would cast a glance at them from the dark, as if sizing up Annie's appearance.
But when the hunters find out who this person is, they will immediately choose other targets - Annie is not as weak as she looks, and the Star Sea warriors who come into contact with her become completely different people.
There must be some hidden conspiracy about her.
Ani said goodbye to her other two roommates at the door of Class 19. Zhang Mei leaned her head closer and Luo Rou stuck out her long tongue.
She was stunned for a moment at this scene, then suddenly realized something. She reached out and rubbed Zhang Mei's hair, smoothing her fluffy hair and patting it like she was a long-haired puppy. With his other hand, he took out a bag of crushed biscuits from the bag and poured the crushed crumbs onto Luo Rou's long tongue.
Both of them had no face, but they obviously won Ani's concern and revealed a faint sense of happiness.
The two walked towards the back door of Class 20. Ani turned around and walked into the classroom.
There were no lights on in the room.
The lighting in Class 19 was not very good. The curtains were mostly drawn, and the faint light of morning light shone through the gaps in the curtains.
Annie pressed the light, but it didn't come on. She squinted at the light tube and saw a dark shadow hanging on the old incandescent bulb.
She pulled out a laser gun from her waist, unlocked the safety with one hand, and the light blue laser accumulated energy in the barrel. Annie pressed the light switch again, and with a crisp click, a gunshot blasted at the black shadow on the incandescent lamp.
A laser that lit up the room illuminated everyone's faces. Annie recognized it was a bat, a fluffy bat with huge wings. It swung its long tail, and the bat burst into blood and fell down.
Its body barely managed to maintain balance while falling in mid-air, and it flapped its bat wings as it made a big turn and rushed straight towards him.
Annie raised her hand expressionlessly. Her dynamic aim was very accurate. If she could see clearly, she could smash the opponent's bat head with one shot. The moment she pulled the trigger, the big bat turned into a human form in the air!
Because it suddenly changed, the laser beam that was originally aimed at the forehead swept across a piece of dark purple hair, burning the hair into ashes. The opponent screamed and fell in front of Annie, with the injured bat wing tightly attached to the back.
Pop.
Ani turned on the other lights that were not broken.
In front of me is a bat... No, to be precise, this guy should be called a succubus. The official definition on Starnet is carbon-based animal kingdom, phylum Chordata, class Mammalia, family Hominidae, genus Pteropterus, nocturnal bat species, also known as succubus.
It is a branch of the Feather Clan.
The succubus' injured bat wings were tightly folded, his long purple hair was missing a section, and one strand was burned very short. He was almost naked, his spine was deeply sunken, his waist was collapsed and his hips were raised. He only wore a metal device on his buttocks, and there was an opening in his coccyx, with a fleshy, heart-shaped tail covered with a layer of short fur growing out of it.
Ani squatted down and looked at the purple-haired succubus that fell to the ground: "Oops, I missed."
He covered his chest, raised his head suddenly, and stared at her with a pair of scarlet eyes: "Will you scream? As soon as you come up..."
He suddenly recognized Ani's face.
Although he and Annie were not in the same carriage, the other's cute face was very famous on the Star Network and her name was well-known. The succubus immediately shrank back under the table, hurriedly took things out of her bag, and put on her thin clothes with only a few straps.
"Nocturnal bats can't sleep at night, no wonder you have to come to the classroom early to catch up on your sleep." Annie sat on the desk, glanced around, and looked towards the windowsill.
There was an extra green at the edge of the windowsill, and it seemed to be quietly creeping in while she was talking to the succubus.
"But..." Ani looked at Ling Xiao climbing in from the window, her tone casual, deliberately teasing, "Why don't you put on clothes? Can't you sleep with clothes on?"
The vine's crawling movement paused.
The succubus was so angry that she held it in without making a sound.
He remembered Annie's information. This seemingly obedient girl had many hunters at her fingertips. He'd better not offend her, after all, she was a strong opponent.
The succubus put on her clothes and crawled out from under the table. Annie lowered her eyes and watched him crawl out from her legs, the pointed black nails of the nocturnal bat scraping the ground. His figure was between that of a teenager and a young man, with broad shoulders and a thin waist. His skin was wheat-colored, and his naked back had begun to show the outline of a broad and strong structure, with well-proportioned bones and flesh - given time, he should grow into a well-built adult male.
But not yet. Although the bat wings are big, they are not as big as the angel's wings, and the wing membrane is very thin.
His tail was tucked in the crack of his butt, and the fluffy heart-shaped tail hung as low as possible and dragged on the ground. The metal device couldn't cover her fleshy buttocks, revealing a small half of a peach shape on each.
