“Well, Ren Suo, your life is the best amongst all of us.”


“No, no… How can my life be better than Chairman Xie, who has become the chief of the Countermeasure Support Section,” Ren Suo replied. He placed his can of Coke down and laughed, saying, “You’re the first one to become an official.”


“Man, what section chief, it’s just another name for a scapegoat when the time comes,” Xie Qiansi said. He continued, “I’m not in the Countermeasure Headquarters anyway. With my power, the most I can do is to work with the police and assist the Headquarters.”


“Positions do not mean anything. You will only be valued when you are a higher-tier Practitioner. This is especially true in the Countermeasure System,” he added.


After several sips of Coke, Ren Suo casually asked, “Does anyone know what Yuan Dang is doing now?”


“I have no idea… He changed his phone number too, and can’t be found on WeChat or QQ either.”


“I heard that he went to Tianjing to further his Practice?”


“Isn’t Yuan Dang one of the few who had the highest talent scores? He must have been accepted by the great master as a disciple.”


No one seemed to know about Yuan Dang’s whereabouts, but Ren Suo already anticipated that. He stood up and said, “Well, it’s getting late, I’ll go and—”


“Hey, let me pick up the check!” Xie Qiansi said as he stood up immediately. He remarked, “I was the one who organized this gathering, how can I let you pay?”


“Alright then,” Ren Suo replied as he quickly sat down. He clapped and cheered, “Thank you, Chairman Xie!”


The rest of the group also applauded and exclaimed, “Thank you, Chairman Xie! You look extremely handsome when you pay the check!”


Xie Qiansi was at a loss for words.


The group had gathered over a barbecue as initiated by Xie Qiansi a few days back. Ren Suo had only found out about the gathering when he opened his WeChat. Incidentally, he wanted to ask them about Yuan Dang and had also been eating too many home-cooked meals, so he went for the meeting. After all, he occasionally wanted to eat a high-calorie barbecue meal too.Update by vip novel


He had already expected to be unable to find out anything about Yuan Dang. Suddenly, Li Qingxuan turned to ask Ren Suo mischievously, “Heh heh, Ren Suo, are you very close to Xiaoqiao recently?”


Ren Suo was puzzled. He replied, “Qiao Muyi? Very close… I guess we are able to get along decently with each other?”


Li Qingxuan smiled as she covered her mouth with her hand. She said, “Well, before this, I specifically asked Xiaoqiao if she was coming, but she asked me if you were coming instead. Tchh, how secretive, I didn’t expect you guys to…”


“Speaking of which…” Zhao Huo seemed to have something to add but stopped his sentence midway when he looked at Ren Suo.


Ren Suo’s face went (` L_ `). He said coldly, “I said wrongly, I am actually not close to her. Zhao Huo, are we heading back together later?”


“Of course,” Zhao Huo replied.


Zhao Huo and Ren Suo both lived in the same building, so they headed back together. Along the way, Ren Suo was only thinking about the game. He had cleared another checkpoint in the last two days, but unlike the monastery, no outsiders entered, in the second checkpoint.


It seemed that the mysterious entrance to that checkpoint must have been at a more secret and obscured location, such that no one had noticed it.


In that checkpoint, there was also an NPC who was like Red Hood. However, unlike the Magic Wrist Red Hood, that NPC was Lumpena, the Hand of Equilibrium. Lumpena was a gentlemanly girl who wore a bowler hat and held a walking stick in her hand. She was skilled in sound wave attacks and taunting monsters.


However, Ren Suo realized that even though Mage’s level increased, fighting the small monsters and the boss was still no easy feat, even with the assistance of his two other ‘teammates’.


According to Red Hood, whenever one arena was cleansed and purified, the power of the Holy Grail in the arena would be distributed to the rest of the arenas. As such, clearing a game with a 3+ star level of difficulty was definitely not as easy as Ren Suo had thought, where he could brainlessly wipe out all the enemies in every arena.


In the two checkpoints, Ren Suo was able to let Mage use Forbidden Abilities, but he spent 15 merit points on healing from the Holy Grail. The effect of [A Little Goes A Long Way] being triggered was unexpectedly useful—with a 60% chance of spending one less merit point in every purchase, it was even more worth it to purchase multiple Minor Recoveries than to buy one Major Recovery.


The taxi dropped Ren Suo and Zhao Huo off outside the Institution. Throughout their walk back to the dormitory, they did not meet anyone, for it was already past 9 p.m. At that juncture, Ren Suo felt as if Zhao Huo was staring at him.


Ren Suo said, “… I already warned you not to eat spicy food.”


“Bleh! My ass is perfectly fine! If you don’t believe me, you can touch it!” Zhao Huo replied.


“Who would want to touch your ass, get your fiance to do that!” Ren Suo exclaimed.


Zhao Huo placed his hand on Ren Suo’s shoulder. He smiled mischievously and said, “We are the only ones around here now, tell me honestly, are you…”


“Sorry, I’ve never loved,” Ren Suo interjected.


“Don’t change the subject,” Zhao Huo said. He looked around—they were reaching the dormitory building.


He asked, “Are you and Qiao Muyi together now? What is going on between you and Dong Chengling though? I heard that you have been going to her house everyday to eat.”


Ren Suo laughed and replied, “No, I am not. Well, you know that I treated Dong Chengling to meals everyday back then, right? Now that she’s back with a promotion and a pay raise, she wants to treat me back in return. It’s like me lending you my math assignment to copy, and you lending me your physics assignment to copy…”


Zhao Huo sighed. He remarked, “Is that the same… Anyway, the Heavenly Institution of Lian is going to expand and establish a university section, but I am still in charge of the junior high school section. How I wish I could be promoted and get a pay raise…”


“In that case, you have to Awaken first. Many people are Awakening these days,” Ren Suo said.


“No, no, you have almost changed the topic,” Zhao Huo said. He suddenly shook his head and smiled playfully. He asked, “You said that you and Qiao Muyi are not together? Why is it the case that I saw Qiao Muyi walking out of your dormitory building early in the morning a few days ago–”


“Eh?”


Ren Suo and Zhao Huo turned their heads and saw Qiao Muyi and Dong Chengling walking out of the dormitory building.


None of them there were ordinary people, and all of them had practiced the Secret Records of Glorious Xuan. All of their five senses were more sensitive than that of the average human—and that included their hearing ability.


Although Dong Chengling’s expression remained calm, it was obvious from the cheeky smile of Qiao Muyi’s face that they must have heard what Zhao Huo said.


“Ah, I need the toilet, I’m going off first!” Zhao Huo exclaimed with a suddenly solemn look. He was almost running all the way to the first dormitory building.


Ren Suo was left behind with Dong Chengling and Qiao Muyi, looking at each other.


Out of courtesy, Ren Suo said, “What a coincidence.”


Qiao Muyi laughed and said, “I am here today on behalf of the Countermeasure Division to invite Dong Chengling to join the Countermeasure Division as a special member. Sister Dong’s space ability is extremely powerful, and it would truly be a waste if she is only teaching in school.”


“My ability is still weak, I’m not sure if I will be of much help either,” a modest Dong Chengling said.


“Your ability is definitely sufficient. With Sister Dong around, I would be safe from any life-endangering situation in Lianjiang City, at the least… Oh, right, there’s Ren Suo too!”


Qiao Muyi seemed to think of something and walked up to Ren Suo. She held his hand very intimately and said, “You can form a long-distance emergency team with Sister Dong!”


“What long-distance emergency team?” Ren Suo, who was stunned, asked.


Qiao Muyi explained, “Sister Dong will be in charge of transporting critical patients within our local Countermeasure Division. If any member of the Countermeasure Division is in a critical condition, Sister Dong would be asked to bring him over to her, to safety, through space.”


“With you around, you would be able to perform emergency resuscitation on personnel of the Countermeasure Division, who are more seriously injured, before rushing them to the school hospital for treatment. What do you think about the plan? If you are agreeable, I can let Deputy Director Yu know,” she continued.


It was something Ren Suo could do easily that would also benefit him. Moreover, there were many Awakened Practitioners in the Countermeasure Division, so he naturally agreed, “Sure.”


“Alright then, goodbye Sister Dong,” Qiao Muyi said.


She bid farewell to Dong Chengling first, then walked over to Ren Suo, took off his cap, and touched his head.


She said, “Ren Suo, I’ll visit your house when I have the chance the next time!” With that, she slipped away.


Ren Suo blinked, completely unable to comprehend her actions in time. He was about to replace his cap when Dong Chengling walked over and held his hand down—the strength of a tier 2 Practitioner was not to be underestimated—then touched his head.


“Remember to come over for lunch at noon tomorrow,” Dong Chengling said with a smile, although her facial expression remained largely unchanged. Following which, she turned around and walked back to the third dormitory building.


Ren Suo walked to the second dormitory building and found that the black cat was enjoying the breeze downstairs again. This time, however, it did not fall asleep, nor did it talk. Instead, it merely stared at Ren Suo, its eyes gazing at him as if mocking him.


“What are you looking at, I’m going to pat you too,” Ren Suo chided as he rubbed the cat’s head fiercely.


Ren Suo took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Qiao Muyi: [What did you mean by that just now?]


After a while, Qiao Muyi replied:


[A well-timed sense of crisis is an appetizing seasoning in life.]


Ren Suo could not understand that sentence, but he could understand the next line:


[It’s very fun too.]


At that moment, Ren Suo’s mobile phone suddenly vibrated.
