The different parties from the four countries returned with their hands empty — they didn’t find any golden stone, nor anything else useful. All that was around were corpses after corpses. After the matter had been handed over to the relevant personnel, the Golden Stone team reverted back into Cheng Ming Xuan’s crew of secretaries. They managed to make it over to the second village to meet up with him, and continued their volunteer activity.
Other than Xuan Mo and Ai Er Ge, everyone else felt as though this had just been a sleepwalk session.
As they fought and fought, they gradually fainted. And then, Zhao Jing Lei woke up, and realised there was nothing in the cave, other than bodies and corpses strewn all across the ground.
The acid-filled monster they met in the beginning had now completely turned into normal corpses, as though this was all just their imagination.
“It’s as though aliens came and cleaned up the situation.” When Ling Yun described it as such, he received Xuan Mo and Ai Er Ge’s synchronous eyerolls.
The kids played happily with their new toys under the winter sun. Xuan Mo, Zhao Jing Lei and the several other university students that were there became temporary tuition teachers and helped the students with their homework. When the third child holding a mathematics workbook walked away from Xuan Mo with spinning, confused eyes, Ai Er Ge decided to pull Xuan Mo away from the children, to prevent her from imparting any strange, non-blue-planet-esque way of thinking to solve maths questions.
“…thanks.” He said awkwardly when they were standing under a Hawthorn tree.
Xuan Mo looked at the mountains in the distance, not speaking.
“I know, I might, be the last Elgeian.” He started softly, “but I don’t want to believe that, I want to find the others from my race… I’m a wandering soul too, I’ve been alone, for a very long time…”
“Enough, that’s your business, why are you telling me.” Xuan Mo suddenly cut him off.
Ai Er Ge’s eyes widened. He was so glum he could spit blood any moment: “I finally decided to open up and share with you my inner thoughts, yet you you you…”
“Shut it, I’m not interested.” Xuan Mo replied leisurely, “you have a created body too now, you can do whatever you want to do, but remember, it’s not free, you need to pay monthly rental, the amount is to be confirmed, but you better source your money ethically, I don’t care about anything else.”
“……………………..” Ai Er Ge held a hand on his chest as he eyed the steep drop past the edge of the mountain, as though he was harbouring certain dangerous thoughts.
“Okay, that’s that then.” Xuan Mo smiled and turned to leave. ♢ MY CLASSMATE IS TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS YEARS OLD, CHAPTER 187 is hosted at ZHANLANN.COM ♢
“A, bu, do, ry!” Ai Er Ge lunged over as though he wanted to start a fight. Before he could move though, he felt a huge wave of pressure surging at him, and it came from behind.
Xuan Mo felt the foreign force as well. At that, she turned to see the direction it came from, but there was nothing.
Suddenly, she squinted and looked towards the setting sun. A huge, red circular disk seemed to glint in a strange light. She sent her mental power out to check out the situation. It really was a spacecraft slowly flying past. The spacecraft was still quite a distance away, so it had not completely retracted the force from earlier.
“Fine, fantastic!” Ai Er Ge clenched his teeth, “all y’all Scorpions are bullying me! And you gotta team up!”
“Humph.” Xuan Mo laughed coldly, “unconvinced? This is among the very low-end equipment that I have. Be stronger than me then.”
“Aowwww!” A howl sounded from the Hawthorn tree at the tip of the mountain.
After returning home, and just when Xuan Mo felt that everything was returning to normal, she discovered that brother Lu* was giving her a cold shoulder.
* brother Lu is Lu Yu Chen
He’d come over every day to eat, but he won’t speak a single word, nor spare her a single glance, nor grant her a single expression.
In Ai Er Ge’s words, this guy was acting all tsundere.
Xuan Mo didn’t understand what tsundere was, but she did understand one thing, and that was, brother Lu wasn’t gonna be able to hold this front up for too long. Not because she figured out how to deal with it, but rather, he himself couldn’t stand it for long.
One week later, Xuan Mo was invited to a pool party during winter. The people that invited her were people from the combat team. As expected, when brother Lu heard of this, he immediately opposed: “You can’t! They’re swimming in the reservoir, it’s too dangerous! And you’ve never swam in winter before, what if something happens?”
Xuan Mo looked at the old swimsuits that the previous owner of this body owned — a flower patterned swimming skirt — and… fell in a bad mood: “I need to buy a swimsuit.”
“Mo Mo! Listen to your brother, if you’re going out to play I get it, at least there’s people with you…” At that, his voice turned sour, “but swimming in winter is really bad, and if you’ve never tried it before, it’s very possible for something to happen, what happens if you fall sick, or drown or something like that!?”
“Aren’t your swimming trunks torn.” She’d noticed it with her mental powers. There was a small hole somewhere on the trunks. “Let’s go, buy new ones.”
“Mo Mo! Don’t talk to yourself, you…” Lu Yu Chen’s eyes suddenly widened. Xuan Mo grabbed his hand and pulled him out the door… and Lu Yu Chen’s face suddenly flushed, “buy, buy, let’s buy it… but don’t get anything too revealing, you’re a girl, it’s not good…”
“Enh, stop being noisy.”
