Chapter 46: The First Step in Conquering the Evil Dragon
On the computer screen, the successfully matched colorful gems disappeared in a collision.
Xia Li sat in a chair, scrolling through his phone.
Lucia, beside him, was completely focused on the computer, her entire dragon being engrossed in this little ga that Xia Li found childish, but was just right for her.
Because she was playing too aggressively, Lucia stood on the ground with both feet, holding the mouse in her hand and leaning forward.
Her posture reminded Xia Li of himself when he was a child playing computer gas, standing up in the sa way.
“Move away from the screen, you’ll go blind like that,” Xia Li said casually.
After saying that, Xia Li suddenly felt that the sentence sounded familiar.
Tsk, how did he end up saying the exact sa thing Mrs. Fang used to say.
“Mm-hmm.”
Lucia was so engrossed in the ga that she couldn’t hear what Xia Li was saying.
Ten minutes passed.
Before Xia Li could even finish a round of his mobile ga, Lucia seed to have lost her drive and plopped back onto the chair.
“Lost?” Xia Li looked up.
That shouldn’t be.
He had chosen the endless mode for Lucia, this little newbie, with no enemies and no countdown, she could play it however she wanted.
“…Woo…”
Xia Li didn’t expect that a simple gem matching ga could make this silly dragon whine like this.
“What’s wrong?”
Lucia lowered her head dejectedly, feeling as sad as if her painstakingly built nest had been burned down by humans.
Xia Li quickly put down his phone and got up to check the computer.
There was no problem.
Although the score was a bit low, the gems were still gems.
“Xia Li… you told to move the gems up and down… as long as three are next to each other, they can collide.”
“Yes, that’s how you play the ga,” Xia Li nodded.
Lucia tapped her finger on the computer again.
“But… after they collide, they, they disappear!!”
Lucia’s small face was full of surprise, her amber eyes bright and charming. She clapped her hands, her tone both aggrieved and indignant.
“They disappear!!”
Xia Li: “…”
This was an unexpected perspective he hadn’t considered.
Evil dragons love beautiful gems because they like to collect them… not to watch them disappear from under their noses.
For an evil dragon to play gem matching is like soone playing with stacks of cash disappearing…
Truly cruel.
“Let’s play a different ga.”
Xia Li got up and closed Lucia’s gem matching ga.
Lucia pouted, staring at Xia Li with pleading eyes.
“You’ll definitely like this one, Gold Miner.”
To avoid Lucia saying that the gold disappeared later, Xia Li patiently explained the rules of the ga.
“See this hook? You have to control the hook to catch gold. The gold you catch will be directly converted into money in the upper left corner, and you can use this money to buy ga props when you pass the level.”
“Oh…”
Lucia’s eyes sparkled as she listened.
The gold caught is directly exchanged for money?
This was very much in line with an evil dragon’s interests.
Although gold is beautiful, after living on Earth for a few days, Lucia felt that money was also very important.
Sotis, after staring at the red banknotes that Xia Li took out for a long ti, she felt that these paper things were no worse than gold and gems!
“Then I want to play this!”
The pout on Lucia’s small mouth instantly turned into a smile, and she reached for the mouse on the table.
“This is controlled by the keyboard,” Xia Li grabbed her small hand back.
“See these four arrows on the keyboard? Press ‘↓’ to lower the hook, press ‘↑’ to use props.”
This simple operation thod could be easily learned even by a three-year-old child.
Lucia tried to control it and imdiately nodded with a happy smile.
“Yes, I understand!”
“This version is a two-player mode, I’ll control the miner on the left.”
◈◈◈
Xia Li sat down next to Lucia.
Not to ntion anything else, with a simple ga like Gold Miner, Xia Li could easily defeat this evil dragon, right?
“You dig for gold, I’ll go for the diamonds. Diamonds are worth more, but they’re harder to aim…”
Not long after they started, Xia Li was still directing the evil dragon to cooperate.
However, just as the countdown appeared in the upper left corner, and they were only a few hundred points away from the target in this tense mont, Xia Li felt his vision go dark!
Transmigrated?
No way!
Lucia suddenly stood up and covered Xia Li’s eyes with her small hand.
“What are you covering my eyes for!!”
Xia Li yelled angrily and quickly pulled the octopus off his face. He looked at the ga again.
The countdown ended, and the gold he had just caught barely made it to the next level.
“You, you grabbed my gold!” Lucia was even more anxious than Xia Li.
“We’re teammates!”
“Huh?”
Lucia was confused.
In her view, how could a brave hero and an evil dragon be teammates?
When Xia Li and she controlled a keyboard at the sa ti, it was the ti for their epic battle between brave hero and evil dragon!
“Look here,” Xia Li patted the computer and said.
“The money we earn is all mixed together.”
Lucia leaned closer, her eyes fixed on the string of numbers representing money.
“rged into one…”
“You can use that awful word if you want,” Xia Li said.
Lucia rembered that she and Xia Li were indeed friends now.
A brave hero and an evil dragon being friends…
It was fine on the evil dragon’s side, no matter what a dragon did, their fellow dragons wouldn’t care.
But if the brave hero did this…
Wouldn’t it be a blatant betrayal of his own race!
If they returned to Azure Continent in the future, Xia Li would be considered a ‘traitor’ in the eyes of humans!
Thinking of this, Lucia suddenly sighed, “Xia Li, I didn’t expect you to sacrifice so much for .”
“But it doesn’t matter, I will take you in later,” Lucia said seriously.
Xia Li: “…”
He had no idea what this evil dragon was thinking.
This guy always did this, coming up with so strange conclusions from ti to ti.
Could it be that she was conquering herself?
However, Xia Li had indeed sacrificed a lot for her.
Just keeping Lucia at ho was already putting him under imnse pressure. The old couple at ho hadn’t made any noise recently, but in Xia Li’s opinion, this was the calm before the storm.
“Want to play again?”
“Yes.”
“This ti I’ll still catch the diamonds, you’re responsible for digging gold… and don’t cover my eyes again!”
“I know, you’re my teammate now.”
“Okay, let’s start.”
As the retro ga sound effects ca from the speakers, the ga entered the next round.
The brave hero Xia Li and the evil dragon Lucia completed their first cooperation in life, and the levels went all the way to the tenth level.
Although they ultimately fell at the threshold of the eleventh level, Xia Li said that it was already very impressive, and they would try harder next ti.
Lucia stared blankly at the remaining money that disappeared after the ga ended.
All the gold dug up in an hour was cleared…
But her heart didn’t feel empty.
After all, these numbers were fake from the beginning…
Moreover, she had gained sothing more important during the process of playing gas with Xia Li.
Lucia seed to know what she liked!
“Xia Li, it was so fun, will you play with again next ti!”
