A silver-haired girl wearing a pair of black thick-rimmed glasses was sitting on the altar's steps. She was dressed in a white school uniform and a black short skirt. At this moment, her legs were stretched out on the steps, revealing her smooth, pink thighs and exquisite calves that were as white as jade. She looked pure and beautiful.
The girl was engrossed in reading a thick hardcover book in her hands. Beside her was a cute pink backpack.
Shi Xiaobai was slightly surprised. The girl was like him, a rookie that had been randomly sent to City # 1. However, it was unknown when she had arrived.
Shi Xiaobai hesitated for a moment before turning to walk towards the altar.
The girl was engrossed in her reading. Only when Shi Xiaobai was halfway up the steps did she look up from the book. Her dazed expression looked rather adorable.
Just as Shi Xiaobai was about to open his mouth to speak, he saw the girl quickly take out a writing board from her backpack. She took out an oil-based pen placed on the writing board and began writing. Her actions were practiced as though she had practiced it thousands of times.
Shi Xiaobai swallowed the words he was about to say and waited quietly.
In a short while, the girl raised the writing board at Shi Xiaobai.
"Tu Dahei? That's not right, Shi Xiaobai? You are Shi Xiaobai, right? "
The black handwriting was not neat. It was crooked, but it looked rather adorable. Especially after the line of words, the girl had drawn a puzzled and cute emoticon. However, the drawing technique was not flattering.
Shi Xiaobai was slightly surprised. He did not deliberately hide it and said with a nod with a smile, "That's right. This King is Shi Xiaobai. Girl, it looks like you have a pair of eyes that transcend mortals!"
The silver-haired girl squinted her eyes and smiled. She looked adorable and moving.
Shi Xiaobai glanced at the writing board and asked in puzzlement, "You … can't speak?"
The girl blinked her amber eyes and pulled the edge of the writing board. Wiping away the words on the writing board, she only wrote one word.
"Yea."
Shi Xiaobai was slightly surprised because he recalled Yama Minamiya mentioning in the morning that mutes were forbidden from entering the trial grounds. What was up with the bespectacled girl in front of him?
However, before Shi Xiaobai could ask a question, the girl had already finished writing another line of words.
"I have a question. How did you manage to kill a hundred Darkness Nightmare Terrors in less than twenty seconds?"
Shi Xiaobai was slightly surprised, but he saw the girl take a glance at him before wiping away the words on the writing board.
"Were you randomly sent to the Death Altar?"
The girl did of Shi Xiaobai's of answer and continued writing, as though she wanted to of all the questions in one breath.
"You have light-elemental area-of-effect offensive skills?"
Of of of of of, of of of of of of, "Darkness"
"Can you really beat Pulp Peasant in of Pulp?"
"Of Of 'This King', of … of … of of of Of of 'of!'
"of Of … of … of of of of of of …"
"What's your favorite anime?"
"…"
Of of of of … as …. "of … of of of of of of … of of … of … as …"
"Me as …." … I … … "
Of … … of … … The girl of … The girl of … of her as her as … … Shi Immediately the … …. …. …
The girl's eyes immediately shimmered as she nodded her head vigorously.
Shi Xiaobai grinned. The girl was asking questions incessantly. A few of the questions were asked without any scruples. If it were any normal person, they would probably be impatient or extremely disgusted, but Shi Xiaobai was not like that. Instead, he felt a tinge of pity for her.
Wasn't it rather pitiful for a girl with the trait of being a chatterbox to be unable to speak?
"This King shall be merciful and satisfy your curiosity!"
Shi Xiaobai said in high spirits, "Why is This King able to kill a hundred Darkness Terrors in less than twenty seconds? It's very simple. It's because This King possesses the divine power of light, so it is easy to destroy darkness. The altar that This King arrived at is indeed the Death Altar to those Darkness Terrors. Light-elemental area-of-effect offensive skills? Against those weaklings, This King can use a tiny knife to kill ten in a single step, leaving no trace … "
Shi Xiaobai answered the girl's questions one by one as she listened attentively. From time to time, she would continue asking questions based on Shi Xiaobai's answers.
As time passed, the girl's eyes turned brighter. The speed and frequency at which she asked questions increased. Shi Xiaobai patiently answered all of them. Even though some of the questions were very presumptuous, and some of the questions even involved his privacy, Shi Xiaobai did not reveal a look of impatience. He continued answering very seriously. Although many of his answers had elements of "exaggeration" or "modification", it did not prevent the girl from listening with relish.
Later on, the two of them tacitly formed a question-and-answer format until the sacred and authoritative voice resounded in their minds.
"The second wave of demonic beasts has arrived [Crypt Spider]. Please pay attention to defense!"
"The third wave of demonic beasts will attack in ten minutes. The countdown begins!"
Shi Xiaobai's eyebrows pricked up. As he chatted, he had forgotten about such an important matter. He immediately turned around to rush down the altar.
A tiny hand tugged at his sleeve.
Shi Xiaobai turned his head and saw the girl holding up a writing board. On it, she wrote, "I can resolve one side. Can I leave the other three to Brother Xiaobai?"
The girl appeared to have a good impression of Shi Xiaobai. She was already affectionately addressing Shi Xiaobai as Brother Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai immediately nodded and said, "Alright, I'll leave the east gate to you. Don't force it!"
After saying that, Shi Xiaobai quickly rushed towards the west gate.
Shi Xiaobai could naturally defend the four sides alone, but he was unable to completely guarantee the safety of the Tree of Life. At this moment, the silver-haired girl had taken the initiative to resolve the attacks on one side, so Shi Xiaobai naturally accepted it.
When Shi Xiaobai rushed to the west gate, dozens of black spiders the size of wolfhounds were almost at the west gate.
Shi Xiaobai immediately lifted the bronze sword from the bottom up!
"Kun-Stewing Wok!"
The transparent sword Qi in the shape of an iron pot descended from the sky and smashed down. The air within a radius of five meters boiled, and the Crypt Spiders that were enveloped by the sword Qi let out miserable cries. Their black bodies were quickly evaporated and charred.
However, a number of Crypt Spiders managed to escape when the sword beam smashed down. Most of the Crypt Spiders were not affected by the strike. This strike only killed about a quarter of the Crypt Spiders.
Shi Xiaobai frowned slightly. His Kun Peng Sword Technique was only at the Grasped Basics level. Be it the range or speed of the strike, it was barely satisfactory. Against the Crypt Spiders that were moving in a scattered manner, it was extremely ineffective.
Furthermore, the sword skill "Kun-Stewing Wok" expended a large amount of Psionic Power. It could not be used continuously or repeatedly. Shi Xiaobai did not use "Kun-Stewing Wok" again, nor did he charge forward to activate Beginner Sword's sweeping mode. Instead, he immediately turned around and ran back into the city.
When he ran back to the Tree of Life, the Crypt Spiders from the west, south and north had already squeezed in through the city gates. They looked like a dense black wave that was gradually inundating him.
