Astral Flower-Chapter 131: Temporary Separation

"I also have things to do." Tian Lou shrugged. "I can’t just stay in the Virtual World all day long. My father is going to kill me if I do that."

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. "He will target your younger brother first before you."

Tian Lou: "..." that’s not very comforting.

Tou Lu Pian laughed. "I also have some things to do, so I won’t be online for the time being."

Nan Hua nodded. "In that case, this is temporary separation?"

"You can think of it this way." Long Qian Xing rubbed his nose. "Don’t worry, it’ll be at most a few weeks."

"Yeah, if you ever miss me, you can just contact... OUCH!"

Tian Lou was being kicked by Long Qian Xing again and this time, it seemed that he was being pressed to the ground.

Seeing Tian Lou’s miserable appearance, Nan Hua and Tou Lu Pian fell silent.

Why did these two become friends in the first place?

"Go back for now." Long Qian Xing kicked Tian Lou out of his training room.

Tou Lu Pian saw Tian Lou’s miserable appearance and then noticed Long Qian Xing’s glance. He raised his hand and also scrambled outside as fast as possible. If possible, he didn’t want to be beaten up by Long Qian Xing so badly like that.

"Now it’s finally quiet." Long Qian Xing snorted.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "I forgot to ask about their result."

"Fifth or sixth place." Long Qian Xing glanced at Nan Hua. "Long Shi Yu obtain 4.5 points in total while Tian Lou obtain 1.5 and Tou Lu Pian only have 0.5. In total, it’s only 6.5, which is not very good. The first place obtained more than 10 points."

Nan Hua was speechless.

It really sounded as if they were so useless and unable to get their target fast, but in that situation, it would be another miracle for them to be able to get their points.

The other teams were also targeting their target and they couldn’t possibly chase after all their pursuer.

In theory, they could obtain a total of 15 points at most. 10 from their targets and 5 from their pursuers.

But finding their pursuers were harder in the first place.

Not to mention, they needed enough luck to make sure that their target was not targeted by others or their pursuers were not killed first.

"I see." Nan Hua nodded.

"Go and practice on your own. After you get out, don’t forget to lock the door. I’m going back for my mission first." Long Qian Xing waved at Nan Hua.

"Okay." Nan Hua watched as Long Qian Xing left and slowly made her way to the training area. Starting tomorrow, she would go back downstairs and practiced on her own. There didn’t seem to be much differences aside from the different environment.

For Nan Hua, it would not hinder her in the slightest bit.

...

<Long Qian Xing’s location>

After Long Qian Xing had finished with the arrangement in the Virtual World. He walked out of his dormitory and saw Tian Lou grinned in his direction.

"You’re following me?"

"I’m technically your driver." Tian Lou shrugged. "Besides, I don’t really need those theory class. If not because of my bad luck in the practical class, I wouldn’t have need to repeat the classes."

Long Qian Xing nodded in understanding.

He knew what Tian Lou meant and understood that Tian Lou was indeed a bit weaker in terms of physical battles. It was not like he himself was useless because Tian Lou himself still had some merit.

"Say."

"Hmm?"

"Are you interested in Young Miss Nan?" Tian Lou asked. When he wanted to tell Nan Hua that she could contact him, he was being kicked by Long Qian Xing. Even if he was beaten up by Long Qian Xing many times in the past, he knew that Long Qian Xing was not such an unreasonable person.

The only possibility was if it was related to Nan Hua.

Thinking about how bad jealousy could make them, Tian Lou was not very surprised if Long Qian Xing was annoyed at him.

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. It was rare for Tian Lou to be quite sharp. "Guess."

Guess?

Tian Lou watched Long Qian Xing’s back speechlessly.

He had the feeling that this annoying friend of his wouldn’t want to tell him anything about this matter.

"So, what’s your plan now?"

"Have they briefed you of the mission?"

"My task is to drive for you and also to protect you." Tian Lou wanted to add in his heart that he didn’t know who will protect who. "They also tell me that you’re chasing after a specific item in the high school area."

"The military had made a temporary device that could be used to track unrecognized chip." Long Qian Xing glanced at Tian Lou. "Unless they placed the chip among the stack of training chips, we should be able to find it."

Training chips...

Tian Lou wanted to say to Long Qian Xing that most of the training chips were naturally registered but then he recalled the mechanic department. Thinking of how these students would also make their own chip, he fell into silence.

It seemed, this search would be very hard.

"How certain are you that the chip is there?"

"I don’t know." Long Qian Xing glanced at Tian Lou. "But this is the best clue aside from coming to visit all the names in the list."

All the names?

Tian Lou glanced at the document Long Qian Xing pointed at and if Tian Lou was not wrong, there were more than 100 names there.

Well, it was certainly a much better option.

"Let’s go."

...

<Military Academy A High School, Female Dormitory, Block C, no 3-3>

Nan Hua and Feng Yu Hua was just about to sleep when there was an information in the light brain. Feng Yu Hua checked it and then her face darkened.

"Damn it, why did they send such a message?" Feng Yu Hua wanted to complain so much when she saw the content.

Nan Hua glanced at the message and fell into silence.

It was an impossible level mission.
