Chapter 126: A Strange Sense of Rapport!
Chapter 126: A Strange Sense of Rapport!
Editor: H2dH2mr Just as Lu Xiaolong was beating himself up ntally, a cool voice suddenly rang out by his ear, “The basics are very important.
We haven’t mastered them fully yet, which is why we cannot graduate and leave.” Lu Xiaolong jerked his head up and saw that it was the cheetah cha who had replied.
Gratefulness surged in his heart — so not all gods were cold and aloof; this cheetah cha operator was obviously a friendly person.
In reality, Lu Xiaolong was completely wrong.
The cheetah cha hadn’t planned to answer Lu Xiaolong’s question to begin with, but because the rabbit cha had signalled him to do so with that glance and bob of its head, the cheetah cha had no choice but to reply.
After several consecutive months of hanging out together, even though they hardly spoke to one another, a strange sense of rapport had been born between them.
With just a look or a small motion, they could just tell what the other ant.
Thus, the rabbit cha’s previous glance and head bob had let the cheetah cha operator understand completely what the other was asking.
“But …
you are both already so strong.
How could it be that you’ve still not mastered basic control?” Lu Xiaolong just couldn’t understand.
If these results wasn’t proof that they had mastered the basics, then did it an that those of them who had graduated by just achieving the passing line were basically unfit to operate cha?
“Are we strong?
Aren’t there about 100 other stronger people in front of us?” The cheetah cha operator’s voice had a trace of self-mocking, as if unsatisfied with their current results.
This statent by the cheetah cha operator made the rabbit cha turn to glance at him once more.
Its gaze was clearly questioning — when had they beco a group?
This made the cheetah cha operator snicker a little internally.
It really was rather unbelievable — the two of them had only had one actual conversation.
Their subsequent etings had been coincidental when they happened to et up in the training room.
They really weren’t that close, but there was just this indescribable rapport between the two of them.
Of course, part of this serendipity was due to his own initiative.
Ever since their only conversation, he had always used his spiritual strength to locate the other’s position, and then pretended to have entered the sa room to train by coincidence.
However, he truly was fated to et up with the other.
Many tis, the rabbit cha arrived after him, but still sohow found its way into the training room he was in.
(At this mont, Little Four was laughing gleefully up at the heavens: What?
You think the magistrates are the only ones allowed to burn down houses, while the common people are forbidden even to light lamps?1 Who can beat , Little Four, in this virtual realm?) Perhaps the heavens were being kind to him, the gods and spirits giving a peerless prodigy like him their blessing in the form of this assistance from an unexpected quarter.
He hadn’t dismissed Ling Lan’s words, which was why he changed his original plan to graduate and leave, choosing to remain here in the cha training hall to hone his basic cha control instead.
On top of that, he also put in more effort into training up the scout academy basics physical skills.
He figured that since it was also a foundational skill set, basic physical skills should be similarly important.
Reality proved that his assumptions were not wrong.
In the end, he could thoroughly sense the benefits honing his foundations had brought to him.
In the real world, his initially weak and sickly body was slowly recovering, while in the virtual world, his cha control had broken through several limits, causing his results to improve in leaps and bounds.
As intelligent as he was, he had long figured out that the rabbit cha had intentionally revealed those things to him in their only conversation.
Perhaps the both of them being cha prodigies in their own right had sparked so mutual care, so the other had been willing to reveal so of his own secrets of cha control to him.
This secret was very likely an exclusive secret belonging to the other’s sect.
Otherwise, out of the many cha operators out there, why were there so few who viewed basic control with such importance?
Thus, he would carve this great kindness into his heart.
Of course, he had no way to repay this kindness just yet — in fact, he didn’t even dare to reveal his true identity to the other right now.
Before he was fully in control of his own destiny, he needed to keep a low profile, otherwise it would be spitting on all that his grandfather had done for him.
He knew very well that, due to that reading of his Four Pillars of Destiny1, his grandfather had hidden all information on his true potential, purposefully announcing his diocrity instead.
In the end, his grandfather had even used the excuse of his potential being too average to exile him to the distant planet Azure.
All of this was to protect him, to keep him out of the crosshairs of the rich and powerful elite.
But he was still indignant about it.
He wasn’t willing to just choose to escape passively — he wanted to beco strong, and then stand at the pinnacle of this world, able to laugh at all the buffeting storms and winds.
Yes, he wanted to master his own destiny — he wanted to change that prophesized destined finale!
The cheetah cha was involuntarily drawn into his own thoughts.
anwhile, due to the other’s words, Lu Xiaolong had lost all of his initial urgency to leave the training hall.
He believed that if the god had said so and was doing so, then it must really an that the basics were very important.
Without even having to think about it, he hurriedly sent a ssage to his two good friends taking the assessnt.
He told them not to graduate just yet, but to co back and train up their basic control more.
After a few minutes, his good friends responded.
His good intentions naturally weren’t able to convince these two ‘good friends’ who had already decided to abandon him.
Their ssages even suggested in a roundabout way that he was only doing this because he couldn’t bear to see them leave, and was resorting to this sort of desperate asures.
Lu Xiaolong may be a bit slow when it ca to learning, but he wasn’t an idiot; of course he understood the hidden aning in their ssages.
Lu Xiaolong was extrely hurt.
He really wished he could explain to his good friends, even hoping that they would be able to watch the assessnts of the two gods …
but he found that the two of them had shut off their communicators simultaneously, automatically rejecting all of his contact requests.
He went through his contact list, trying to pass on a ssage through so of their mutual friends, but the response he received again and again was not to disturb them — now that they were in the real cha world, they weren’t as free as when they were in the cha training hall; they were really very very busy …
By this ti, Lu Xiaolong had already sensed sothing was off, but he did not want to think too much about it, unwilling to doubt his good friends.
Before him were two options — one was to stop worrying about the others and focus on his own basic training until he was satisfied; the other was to quickly pass the assessnt, paying no mind to how badly he did, so that he could be reunited with his friends as soon as possible.
He glanced at the two gods resting at the side after their practice, and after so thought, decided that he should try asking the cheetah cha about this.
Perhaps the god would be able to give him a good idea.
The cheetah cha operator saw the rhinoceros cha approaching him once again, and couldn’t help but frown.
Honestly, he didn’t really like interacting with strangers — this was primarily due to his cloistered life thus far in his manor.
Subconsciously, he looked towards the rabbit cha.
The rabbit cha’s eyes suddenly blinked at him, as if telling him to be nice.
The cheetah cha operator smiled wryly.
Alright, since the rabbit cha operator wanted him to be nice, then he would be nice.
He just wasn’t able to refuse soone who had helped him.
******** “Little Four, isn’t challenging the other’s tolerance this way a bit overboard?” Ling Lan was now rather worried that if the operator of the rhinoceros cha really infuriated the cheetah cha, he might be murdered right off by the other.
“Don’t worry.
I’ve already made arrangents.
The rhinoceros won’t die,” replied Little Four.
“If I hadn’t worked things out yet, I wouldn’t have let him get so close to you.
After all, he’s an evolved spectre!” Otherwise, if by any chance he was out and about away from his boss, and his boss bumped into the other, wouldn’t that be too dangerous?
“That said, from the looks of it, his temperant is not bad.
Not at all as dangerous as we thought.” Little Four was very satisfied with the other’s behaviour thus far.
This way, he can leave Boss to him without any worry.
Little Four suddenly felt that sothing wasn’t right — what did he just think about leaving Boss to him …
Oh fie fie fie, he must take that back!
Anyone who dares to covet his boss must die!
Death to all of them!
Little Four began sharpening his knife, his little eyes glaring with suspicion and animosity at the cheetah cha operator.
Of course, this behaviour of Little Four’s was imdiately stopped by Ling Lan.
Ling Lan was extrely speechless — what nonsense was this brat thinking of this ti?
Ling Lan suddenly found that having a shared mind may not always be a good thing.
******** Lu Xiaolong told everything to the cheetah cha operator in order, and Ling Lan and the cheetah cha operator imdiately knew what was up.
Both of them were good at reading people, so they knew without a doubt that the poor Lu Xiaolong had been heartlessly cast aside by the two people he considered his good friends.
Ling Lan cast a sympathetic glance at Lu Xiaolong, but believed that this was actually a good thing.
At least now he wouldn’t be used up by his friends before being cast aside.
In that sense, this was much better.
The cheetah cha operator also thought the sa — the two of them once again shared a look through their cha, feeling as if they could clearly sense the other’s thoughts.
Once again, they marvelled at the miraculous rapport between the both of them; there were just no words to describe it.
Of course, the two of them weren’t about to blurt out the answer directly.
They were just passing acquaintances with Lu Xiaolong; they weren’t close enough to be that blunt.
The cheetah cha operator thought for a mont before saying, “I recomnd you focus on training up your basic control.
Although the ti taken will be longer, this way will obviously be more useful to your friends.
I’m sure you don’t want to beco a burden to them, right?” Perhaps ti will let the other figure things out for himself.
Lu Xiaolong nodded energetically.
What the god was saying was undoubtedly what worried him the most.
“If you don’t have enough talent, then you’ll just have to make up for it with hard work.
So, don’t think about simply passing.
Make sure you master your basic control, otherwise you’ll really beco a burden to your good friends.” Of course, the good friends he was talking about referred to true friends, and not those who had abandoned Lu Xiaolong.
The cheetah cha operator’s words enlightened Lu Xiaolong.
That’s true, even if he forced a pass and went over now, he still wouldn’t be much help to his friends.
He might as well stay here and put in more practice to improve his basic control, and only move on when he truly had the ability to help them.
Decided, Lu Xiaolong bid farewell to the two gods.
Of course, before he left, he tried to ask for a way to contact the two of them, but was unfortunately turned down by the cheetah cha operator.
Lu Xiaolong did not dare to cling — he knew that it was already a great blessing to have received so guidance from a god just once.
If he were greedy and tried to ask for more, that would be too shaless.
However, he still told them his na, his parting words and tone filled with the hope that they might et up again soday.
Hopefully at that ti, the gods would still rember him.
Seeing the other leave reluctantly, Ling Lan couldn’t hold back a sigh.
“Who knew you were so good with words?” “Is that so?
Looks like I have talent in this area.” Hearing the other’s praise, the cheetah cha operator’s mood improved imnsely, and he began joking back.
“Yes!
You should really develop your skills in this area.
You shouldn’t waste your talent.” Ling Lan could hear the other’s humour, and so she replied in kind with a laugh.
Ling Lan had no way to know that because of this one statent, the other would truly change how he interacted with others.
When the two of them t up again in the future, she wouldn’t imagine the person she t then would be the sa person as this cheetah cha operator she knew now.
