Chapter 131: Chapter 130 Let’s Practice Heroes Together!
“I must get out! I must see Egg! Roar!”
Crack.
The pitch-black screen split open with a crack, and dark red lava surged into Qiuqiu’s pupils, causing so much pain that it nearly fainted. It roared angrily as the screen shook violently, accompanied by a booming sound that lasted for quite so ti.
Shao Zifeng covered his right eye with one hand, while the other tightly gripped the door fra, his knuckles turning white and veins bulging.
Because of the shared empathy, the pain Qiuqiu experienced was transmitted directly to him, assaulting his consciousness wave after wave.
Several tis he thought about severing the empathic link, but perhaps influenced by Qiuqiu’s indomitable spirit, he clenched his teeth and persevered.
...
It was uncertain how much ti had passed, but eventually everything returned to calm, and Shao Zifeng and Qiuqiu in the screen opened their eyes simultaneously, revealing identical golden-red vertical pupils.
The view was still of the volcanic crater, the air filled with the dry heat of sulfur. Lava flowed down the cliffs into the lava pool, forming and bursting bubbles.
Yet through the gaps between the mountains, one could see the vast blue sky beyond, where thick black fog spread, slowly covering the sky.
After a long struggle, Qiuqiu’s efforts finally paid off. It was very excited and stared blankly at the sky, “I did it! I miss you…”
…
In the following ti, Shao Zifeng just sat quietly on the ground, feeling the joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness that Qiuqiu had gone through, accompanying it as it grew, until later…
When Qiuqiu, in an attempt to save the little deer and Lingling, broke through a boulder and extended a paw, triggering a smoke that blackened the sky, the screen ca to an abrupt end.
Shao Zifeng leaned against the door, staring blankly at the ceiling, processing the effects of the empathy.
Of course, the so-called processing was just to settle his turbulent emotions. Regardless, Qiuqiu’s indefatigable spirit had planted a seed in his heart, waiting to sprout and grow in the future.
“Qiuqiu works so hard; I can’t fall too far behind.” After a long while, he silently rose from the ground.
Seeing there was still a big package left unpacked, he quietly went about organizing the remaining items on his own.
Perhaps because he hadn’t absorbed the essence from the little deer before opening the boxes, his luck this ti was much worse.
Most of the contents were odd trinkets without any attributes, and by the ti he had opened all the packages, he had only obtained three Type I energy potions, two of dark attribute, one non-attribute—a small consolation.
Packing the miscellaneous items into the bag, Shao Zifeng tallied up his gains from this haul.
Apart from so watches, jewelry, and miscellaneous items whose prices Shao Zifeng didn’t know, he had a total gain of 120,000 in cash, four energy potions, a damaged Earth Attribute Elental Ore, and the spent Source Bead.
Overall, it was an unexpected windfall. He planned to use the two dark attribute energy potions for the Shandong Fine Hound, and he would deal with the rest when he had ti to go to the black market.
He hid the tightly packed big bag under the bed, planning to take it out and dispose of it in the evening.
Although he was busy with his hands, his mind was constantly contemplating his next steps.
Tonight was the last day of the agreent, and once Chen Zhenglong cleared the threat tomorrow, Shao Zifeng planned to inquire about the news from Su City. If there were no arrangents from Su City University, he was ready to go out and experience life on his own.
Since he had decided to leave, convincing his mother to care for the Shandong Fine Hound and Yellow Raccoon would need to be scheduled, to ease his worries for the future.
But these were not urgent matters; he would wait to see through tonight first. Thankfully, Dragon City County didn’t have any formidable individuals, otherwise, Lingling…
Thinking this, Shao Zifeng, who was about to open the door and go downstairs, suddenly froze, his expression as awful as if he had eaten an Oreo.
He suddenly realized a problem. Now that Qiuqiu, Lingling, and the little deer were all in the pet space, what was he supposed to do?
What the hell.
Who’s going to keep company on the night watch!
…
“What’s the matter with you, child? You look so pale,” Shao’s mother wiped her wet hands on her apron and ca forward to touch Shao Zifeng’s forehead with concern. “Are you feeling unwell anywhere?”
Feeling his mother’s worry, Shao Zifeng had a light smile on his face. “Mom, I’m fine. Oh, what delicious food did you make today?”
Seeing that Shao Zifeng’s expression did not seem feigned, his mother let go of her worries and went back to the pot. “Today I made lamb soup for you all, it will be ready soon. Go see if Qiqi has woken up. I don’t know what’s up with that child, sleeping all morning…”
Shao Zifeng was a bit surprised by these words because, in his mory, even though Qiqi was just a cat, her schedule was the sa as his mother’s.
Every day after Shao Zifeng got up, she was either playing with her phone or chatting and doing housework with his mom. He’d never seen her getting up so late before.
He went to the inner bedroom where the curtains hadn’t been drawn, and the room was dim.
The bedroom was slightly larger than Shao Zifeng’s; after fitting in two beds and a wardrobe, it seed even more crowded than his.
Besides his mother’s single bed, there was another bed which was Qiqi’s princess baby bed.
Walking on tiptoes to the side of the baby bed, he saw Qiqi lying there, sleeping soundly. She was covered with a small blanket, her tail sticking out from the other side. Her two little paws were under her body, looking incredibly cute.
“Hmm?”
Shao Zifeng took a closer look at Qiqi’s body. Her usually clean white fur was clumped together, as if it had been wet and then left to air dry naturally, leaving marks like those of a small hedgehog. He wondered what this little guy had gotten into yesterday.
Shao Zifeng gently poked Qiqi’s little nose. Qiqi wrinkled her nose, her breathing a bit disordered. She rubbed her cheek with her paw pads a few tis, then shifted her position and lay on her side to continue sleeping.
“Qiqi, ti to get up,” Shao Zifeng said gently as he rubbed her little head.
Qiqi’s pink little mouth opened slightly, she frowned and mumbled, “Zifeng, stop it… don’t wanna get up… I’m so sleepy ow.”
After saying that, she flipped over, sticking her little butt in the air on the princess bed, her two little paws covering her ears as she ignored Shao Zifeng.
Her murmurs in a sleepy, mature-woman voice might have been too much for anyone else to handle.
But Shao Zifeng didn’t fall for it. Rembering how she tornted him the day before, he continued to rub Qiqi’s head with a mischievous smile, “Get up quickly, we’ve got to practice heroes.”
“ow~”
Qiqi opened her eyes reluctantly and nuzzled his arm in an ingratiating manner. Her sleepy eyes pleaded, “Let sleep a bit more.”
Shao Zifeng kept a smiling face as he tidied her fur, “No more sleeping, don’t you want to practice Mirro? I’ll accompany you…”
“I also wanted to practice Yeow…”
“Let’s queue together…”
Shao Zifeng’s incessant voice was like an endless charm, making Qiqi go from a dazed look to utter frustration.
Her white fur stood on end, and with her deep blue eyes, she glared at Shao Zifeng and scread, “Shao Zifeng, you’re so annoying!! You big jerk!!”
