152 Eating Pancakes while Watching a Show
Moon Bell carefully picked up the book and carefully stroked the cover. “I’ve always wanted to read this book. Hill’s final book, World of Lies. It’s just that it’s been too little circulated and I haven’t been able to get it. Aoba, I simply like you too much!”
“Hahaha, as long as you’re happy.”
“This book shouldn’t be cheap, right? How much is it? I’ll pay you.”
“What are you talking about? This is definitely a gift from me. Why don’t you make me a cup of tea? I’m thirsty.”
“Alright, I’ll make you the best, Purple-leaf Flower tea. Have a seat first.” Moon Bell held the book in her arms and reached out to pull out a white towel from under the counter. She carefully wrapped the book and put it away before going to find the tea leaves.
Aoba sat on the chair and glanced at the bookstore. There were two or three people sitting inside, reading books.
“It’s here. Try it and see how it tastes.”
Moon Bell placed the teacup in front of Aoba and sat at the side.
“Mmm, it smells so good. It’s so beautiful!”
The pale yellow flower had absorbed enough water to bloom in the cup. The exquisite petals were half orange and half purple.
“Is it good? I added a little honey.”
“It’s delicious. It’s worth it to have this cup of tea.”
Aoba put down the blanket and pointed at the people in the shop. “It seems that business is doing well now?”
Compared to the small shop in the Giant Cannon Plaza, this place was obviously more spacious. The bookshelves were further away and gave off a more relaxed feeling.
Moon Bell nodded. “Yes, there are indeed more customers than before. It’s just that, after all, I’ve moved away. Some of the regular customers, I can’t meet them anymore. I still feel a little regretful.”
Aoba picked up the cup. “If there are customers, wouldn’t it be good to earn money?”
Moon Bell smiled and did not respond to Aoba.
Returning to living in the wilderness, Fang Ping felt the value of the Frost Set.
As expected of an armor worth 65 Silver Coins. Compared to an Elemental Set worth 5 Silver Coins, there was a world of difference.
It was not just the attributes that increased the wearer’s stats. The comfort of the wearer’s attire was also far from inferior.
He did not feel uncomfortable at all when he slept in the Frost Set. It was rare for him to have a good night’s sleep on the snow before.
He returned to his original life.
In the early morning, everyone was training in their own way, practicing their moves, sparring, and weight-bearing exercises. Only Fang Ping sat at the side, eating yellow melon pancakes while watching them train.
There was a good show to watch today. Black Star challenged Lisa.
The two of them had sparred a few times in the beginning, and Black Star had always lost. Therefore, Black Star laid low for a long time. Today was the first day he left Fire Dragon City, and Black Star could not wait to challenge Lisa. He did not know if he had improved.
Black Star held his sword. His body was thin and weak, swaying left and right with the cold wind. However, as he looked at it, he seemed to have a special rhythm.
Currently, Black Star was one of the few people in Fang Ping’s team who had yet to awaken his special characteristics. Originally, he had Andre in the same boat as him. Now Andre had awakened his special characteristics, and his characteristics were very strong.
However, actual combat ability was not completely related to characteristics. Otherwise, Fang Ping would have been considered invincible long ago with his current four characteristics .
Just as a gust of wind blew over, he quickly rushed out, his long hair flying.
Lisa did not care at all. She circled the staff around her body and grabbed the middle section. She pointed it straight ahead and glanced at Fang Ping.
Fang Ping was stunned. ‘I’m just eating pancakes and watching the show. What’s wrong?’
Black Star was about to attack. He brandished his sword, and Lisa also took a step forward. She placed her staff against the sword and was about to knee Black Star.
However, Black Star quickly retreated, and Lisa’s knee strike only hit air.
Black Star stopped moving, kicked off the ground, and quickly closed in again. Lisa frowned and smashed her staff at him. Black Star swayed left and right to avoid the attack, jumped up, and slashed again.
Lisa drew back her staff, shielding her head as she kicked out sideways. But the moment Black Star’s sword touched the staff, she was already backing away. Lisa’s long legs kicked the air again.
At this moment, Fang Ping also felt that something was not right. Black Star’s movements were agile, but not agile to that extent.
Lisa straightened, her staff propped to the side. “Awakened? Feint Attack? Or Retreat?”
Black Star also stopped and sheathed his sword. “Feint, but I still can’t beat you. Moreover, you haven’t used your special characteristics.”
“If I use it, you might die.”
Black Star turned around to look at Fang Ping, his expression calm. Then, he turned around and left.
The sparring ended here.
Lisa took a white cloth from her bosom and wiped the dirt and snow off the staff. She wondered what material the staff was made of. Lisa had used it for so long, but she hadn’t seen a scratch on it.
“Have you seen enough? Or do you want to fight too?”
“No need, no need.”
Fang Ping’s weapon was a small Starry Sky Staff. If they really fought, Fang Ping was worried that it would be broken in an instant.
Of course, he also had to worry about whether he would be beaten to death.
In that case, Andre and Black Star had awakened. The first person they looked for was Lisa. What was going on? Was she the enemy of the entire team?
“Team, get ready to go,” Elsa said from the front.
Fang Ping stuffed the remaining two bites into his mouth, gulped down a mouthful of water, grabbed his backpack, and walked into the queue.
The path they were taking now deviated from the main road of the fortress, making it difficult to walk. The snow was unpredictable on the roads, and in some places, it was a pit. If they were not careful, they would sink in.
Surrounded by undulating mountains, it was all white.
However, he could feel that as he continued to walk forward, the snow was slowly thinning.
When they rested at night, the cold wind was still blowing, but it was no longer mixed with ice and snow.
The Lord’s Guards in front killed a huge Magical Beast and sent a leg over. It looked like it weighed dozens of kilograms.
...
He did not know if it was because of the energy, but the meat of such a huge Magical Beast would not look rough. After eating a large piece, he felt the increase in energy in his body. This was probably an Excellent or even higher grade Magical Beast.
Satisfied that he had eaten and drank his fill, he lay down on the soft snow. Even with the Frost Set, he didn’t feel cold. He looked up at the sky. There was a moon tonight, and there were faint clouds blocking it. All he could see was the hazy outline of a semicircle.
Beside him, Qing Niao and Andre were cultivating with Flame Rocks in their hands. The efficiency of the Flame Rocks decreased significantly after leaving Fire Dragon City, but the side effects of the fire poison did not decrease. Fang Ping was not interested in it at all.
Someone walked over and stood beside Fang Ping. He said softly, “Aren’t you going to cultivate? Do you want to take a walk?”
He was dressed in a black robe.
Fang Ping rolled over and got up. “Sure.”
Chen Long held a water bag in his hand and shook it. “White Peach wine, want some?”
“I’ll get a glass.”
The faint moonlight shone on the white snow. It was very artistic, but unfortunately, it was a boy beside her.
He chose a hill far away from the night watch team and sat on the snow. Chen Long opened the water bag and poured a glass for Fang Ping. He then took a big gulp of water.
“Ah! Awesome!”
...
Fang Ping took a sip. It had a faint fruity taste and was a little sweet. It also had the feeling of spicy alcohol. It was very moist when it entered his throat and would not burn it.
“Delicious.”
“Fang Ping, I’m a Class 2 now.”
“Yes, you’ve worked hard.”
