Chapter 64 [64] I Want to Ride a Feathered Beast to School

Class Two, Grade Three.

Cheng Han had just sat down when Qian Qingqing immediately handed him a delicate, milky-white glass bottle.

He glanced at the bottle and asked, "Hot drink?"

Due to the residual imprint of the True Flame, he was extremely sensitive to heat and could accurately judge the temperature – forty-two degrees.

Qian Qingqing responded with a radiant smile: "It's snowing! Starting today, I'll bring you a hot drink every day."

The little girl chattered again: "I specifically asked my dad to install an incubator in the car. This bottle of 'Nine Fruit Treasure' has just been taken out. Drink it while it's hot."

The so-called 'Nine Fruit Treasure' is a drink made from nine kinds of fruits. Winter fruits are relatively scarce, so the price is naturally not low.

From her words, it could be inferred that she had asked her father to install the incubator, obviously not for herself. Otherwise, why would she only do it now?

Cheng Han unscrewed the cap, took a sip, and praised, "Not bad!"

Sweet and refreshing, sweet but not greasy, delicious!

Frankly speaking, drinking a hot beverage in the cold winter is indeed a pleasure.

Qian Qingqing smiled like a flower: "Then I'll bring you Nine Fruit Treasure again tomorrow!"

Cheng Han accepted the offering with peace of mind: "Okay!"

Anyway, he was being fed every day, so he didn't care about one more meal. This is called – when you have too many lice, you don't worry about debts.

Besides, he could always repay her with his body in the future, and even throw in a few kids. No problem.

That's fair!

Qian Qingqing then spoke of gossip: "I heard my dad say last night that this year's 'Curfew Period' might be moved forward by a month, starting in October."

Cheng Han took a sip of the hot drink, lost in thought.

In the Tai'an Small Spirit Realm, from November to January each year, various strange and bizarre events would significantly increase, especially at night.

For safety's sake, the authorities would implement curfew measures. During the period from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM the next day, no one was allowed to go out without permission.

In the past, Cheng Han would have regarded it as a characteristic of another world.

But now, having personally experienced a Ghost Eye incident, he had a different perspective on it.

Qian Qingqing glanced at her deskmate and asked a little suspiciously, "I feel like you know something about it?"

Cheng Han retorted, "I'm just a middle school student. What could I know?"

Qian Qingqing was dubious: "Really?"

Cheng Han nodded emphatically: "Of course!"

This was naturally a lie.

He knew more than just a little bit; he knew a "billion" bits.

Cheng Han sipped his hot drink, his mind wandering.

"Ghost Eye incidents occur frequently in the hundreds of thousands of Small Spirit Realms in this world. The source is the murmuring of the alien gods. The bizarre events during the Curfew Period are likely related to the alien gods."

"The Myriad Sun Divine Banyan Tree is home to hundreds of billions of humans, and the top-tier transcendent experts, since they have the ability to suppress the alien gods, can't possibly be unaware of this."

"The sudden advance of the Curfew Period has only one reason: the top experts have realized that the alien gods have become more active, and the bizarre events will become more numerous."

This fact was too shocking, and Cheng Han did not intend to tell anyone.

He couldn't help but think of more.

"Judging from the history of this world, for the past tens of thousands of years, the top experts have been unable to completely eliminate the alien gods, and all of humanity has suffered from bizarre events."

"Therefore, the authorities have established Mysterious Pavilions in every Small Spirit Realm, and formed numerous Black Armor Armies, striving to cultivate talents to cope with the bizarre events."

"It is foreseeable that the situation will likely remain deadlocked for thousands, or even tens of thousands, of years to come. The battle between humans and alien gods is destined to be a long war of attrition…"

Based on the information gleaned from the All-Knowing Eye, he roughly outlined the world's structure.

In professional terms, it was – the main contradiction of this world.

In the afternoon training class, Gu Jinglong was not absent.

This person arrived at the Lanlou earlier than usual.

After the students changed into their training uniforms, Gu Jinglong said loudly: "Everyone, the Hall of Political Affairs has issued a decree that the Curfew Period will be advanced by one month and implemented in half a month."

Qian Qingqing's gossip was confirmed!

The other students were all surprised and suspicious.

Cheng Han, however, was calm.

He also guessed that the Scarface suddenly mentioned this matter in the Knot-Seal Class, not just casually, but for another purpose.

Gu Jinglong immediately announced a bombshell: "The Patrol Department intends to select a group of outstanding students from the Knot-Seal Classes of various middle schools to jointly participate in the Curfew Period patrol work."

The others all looked astonished.

Letting students participate in patrols was unprecedented.

Cheng Han thought to himself, "As expected."

This confirmed his guess.

This year's bizarre events would be more numerous than in previous years, and the peak period would come earlier. The authorities believed that the Patrol Department's manpower was insufficient, and that's why they made such an arrangement.

Gu Jinglong continued: "Our school has been allocated six places. Those selected will need to patrol for a month. The Black Armor Army will provide an additional subsidy of sixty silver coins and four opportunities to take secret medicines."

Many students showed signs of excitement.

Everyone was receiving funding from the battle group, so they didn't particularly value money, but almost no one could resist the temptation of secret medicines.

Moreover, everyone knew that the Patrol Department was unlikely to send students to dangerous places. Weighing the benefits and risks, participating in the patrol was not a loss at all.

Everyone present knew that Cheng Han would definitely occupy one of the places. No one here was qualified to compete with him, nor did anyone have the guts to compete with him.

This meant that the remaining twenty-one people could only compete for the remaining five places.

Gu Jinglong immediately called out a name: "Cheng Han, you must go!"

Cheng Han responded crisply: "Understood."

He then asked: "Principal Jinglong, after the patrol mission is over, the Patrol Department should give awards to middle schools with outstanding performance, right?"

This was not difficult to guess.

The word "must" in Scarface's mouth completely exposed this guy's thoughts. Only when he wanted something would he be so eager.

Gu Jinglong's face was full of praise: "I have always believed that Cheng Han is the only smart person in the entire Knot-Seal Class, and the others are all a bunch of idiots."

This was a disguised affirmation.

And for this kind of "routine humiliation", in the past, others would definitely be very upset, but today not many people were dissatisfied.

There was no other reason.

A certain third-year student dared to kill people at the slightest disagreement!

It was said that after killing someone, he could still talk and laugh without changing his expression.

Too perverted!

Cheng Han didn't speak, just stared at Scarface.

Gu Jinglong seemed to understand and tentatively asked: "You want more money again?"

Cheng Han didn't say a word.

Letting me win honor for the school, but not giving me any indication, is that right?

How much money I get determines how much I do. This is a principle that cannot be compromised!

The other students were completely convinced.

Daring to ask for more money again and again, truly awesome!

Gu Jinglong sighed: "Student Cheng Han, as long as you perform well in the patrol mission, the Patrol Department will also give you additional rewards.

"Besides, you will become a warrior sooner or later, and your income will definitely not be low at that time. Why are you in such a hurry to make money now?"

Cheng Han finally spoke: "I want to buy a house and also want to buy a feathered beast, so that when it snows, I can ride the feathered beast to school."

The first time he saw this tamed beast that looked very much like a dinosaur, he made up his mind to buy one. It was rare to travel through time, wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't ride a dinosaur?

And the small house in Shanyi Ward obviously couldn't meet the space requirements for raising a feathered beast, so he had to buy a big house first.

Therefore, he didn't want to miss out on any of the Patrol Department's rewards or the school's rewards!

This is called a win-win!

Gu Jinglong was convinced: "At your age, I never thought about such things."

Cheng Han didn't want to speak.

Whether you want to or not has nothing to do with whether I want to or not? What kind of logic!

Gu Jinglong pondered for a while and said: "According to the information I have, there are a total of twenty-four middle schools in Qinglin City participating in the patrol. The five middle schools with the best performance in the mission will receive awards from the Patrol Department."

Scarface gave a quote: "If the school gets first place, I will give you an extra reward of three gold coins. For each place less, reduce it by fifty silver coins. Fifth place only gets one gold coin, how about it?"

This person specifically added: "This is the highest price I can promise."

Cheng Han thought for a while and nodded: "Okay!"

He had the All-Knowing Eye. To perform well in the patrol mission and win the first place honor for the school, he really didn't need to put in too much effort.

In comparison, the reward of three gold coins was not bad.

The other students next to him admired him to death.

Too awesome!

Gu Jinglong looked around and deliberately emphasized: "The school's additional rewards are only for Cheng Han alone, so don't even think about it."

This was a seriously double standard behavior.

No one dared to say anything.

Because they all knew that if Cheng Han asked for more money, the vice-principal wouldn't say anything, but if they did, they would definitely be punished.

The difference between people is too great!

Thanks to 'Ren Fu' for the reward.
