Chapter 133
She said to Yu Xunge, “Just reach in and take the books out of the potion. Soak them for three seconds, and you’ll be fine. Don’t worry, the books from Zelan are different from the comics you gave to Xiao Maqi. Our books are all waterproof; they won’t get ruined.”
Yu Xunge asked curiously, “Is this only useful for books?”
He Qipa understood what she meant: “I’ve already given you something useful for your body. The fragrance absorbed by your pores isn’t so easily dealt with. This is only effective for objects.”
Yu Xunge didn’t waste any more words. She walked over and plunged her hand into the cauldron, only to shiver from the icy potion inside.
A few seconds later…
He Qipa eagerly asked, “Are you done yet?”
Yu Xunge replied, “Almost, almost.”
A few moments later.
He Qipa asked again, “Are you done yet? Can you at least give me one to look at and whet my appetite?!”
She couldn’t hold back any longer and leaned in to see that Yu Xunge was carefully pouring books from a bag into the water, making sure not to let her hands touch any books that hadn’t been soaked yet. The titles of those books were either about martial arts or magic… or training insights…
He Qipa’s heart sank: “Did you go shopping?”
Yu Xunge replied confidently, “Yeah, why not? Should I just sit by the window and drink all day?”
He Qipa: “…”
Yu Xunge soaked seven or eight books at a time, quickly finishing her own. She also discreetly washed the props she had stolen from Wurei.
It was hard to say whether it was good luck or bad luck; she had only stolen once, but she actually got something, and it was something she never could have imagined.
While cleaning, she glanced back at He Qipa.
It was a plain rectangular object, about the length of two knuckles, slightly wider than two fingers, with six acorns on top.
This was the writing of the Acorn Owl tribe, a script that was easy to recognize. No matter what the characters were, their overall outline resembled the acorns that the squirrel chased from beginning to end in Ice Age—slightly wider at the top, with a round and cute shape.
And there was no need to decipher it; there were six acorns right there, directly representing the totem of the Acorn Owl.
The rectangular object was mostly white, with the back and the six acorns in dark blue.
Though she didn’t know how to play, she recognized it. From its size and the information on it, it was strikingly similar to Mahjong from Blue Star…
Was this… the six-tong?

A few minutes later, Yu Xunge finally fished out the books He Qipa wanted from the potion and handed them to her.
He Qipa immediately stopped pacing and picked up a book to flip through.
Once all the books were soaked, Yu Xunge handed over the first volume of “The Moon of the Four Seasons and Potions” to He Qipa: “Do you want this one?”
He Qipa took the book and flipped through it for a few minutes before saying, “It’s a very clever and interesting book. You can keep it, but it might be a bit too advanced for you right now.”
Yu Xunge replied, “Oh, Wurei Yuehuang said the same thing. She even recommended this book to me.” As she spoke, she pulled out “Brewing Potions? Isn’t it just about having a tail?”
He Qipa took that book as well, this time reading it for a longer time, almost halfway through before she handed it back to Yu Xunge, saying, “This book is indeed suitable for you. Study it well, and let me see it when you’re done.”
After putting away the hundred or so books, she turned and left without looking back. “Come back for class in a week; I’m busy lately!”
Yu Xunge: “…………”
Before the task was issued: “I promise I will impart all my alchemy knowledge to you… until one of us reaches the end of our life.”
After the task was done: “I’m busy lately!”
Yu Xunge… I didn’t expect you to be this kind of undead!
……
At 2 AM on August 30th, after confirming that she didn’t have even a hint of fragrance left on her, Yu Xunge returned to Blue Star.
As soon as she appeared under the bed, she noticed something next to her. The discovery sent chills down her spine, and she almost used Shadow Step to escape, but when she saw it was Tu Lan, she calmed down. She kicked her legs weakly and collapsed onto the carpet. “You scared me to death.”
Tu Lan mimicked her posture, wings at her sides, legs stretched out: “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Can you take me with you next time you go out to play?”
Yu Xunge asked curiously, “Are you bored?”
Tu Lan hesitated for a moment and explained, “Not exactly bored, just curious about what you do every day.”
Yu Xunge smiled, “Sure, if you want to, you can definitely come with me. The day after tomorrow, I’m going to help someone fight a dragon. Do you want to watch? But you can’t interfere at all, okay?”
Tu Lan replied, “Okay~ I’ll listen to you.”
Yu Xunge crawled out from under the bed with little Tu Lan in her arms, took a shower, and collapsed into bed.
Then, early in the morning, she was awakened by the sound of a game announcement.
【Ding——A player has made a significant contribution in the war between Zelan and Blue Star, recognized by their country. The Honor Roll is officially opened!】
【Ding——Player Yu Xunge has entered the Honor Roll and can choose whether to conceal her information.】
Yu Xunge was momentarily stunned by the barrage of notifications and instinctively selected 【Yes】.
Did this leaderboard really open this early in her life?
She clicked on the 【Hua Xia】 channel to see what was going on.
【Hua Xia】 Channel
“Wow, does she think that if she goes anonymous, no one will know who she is?”
“LOL, didn’t everyone just get the text? I got the message just moments ago, and the Honor Roll opened right after…”
“She’s on all three leaderboards: Pet, Level, and Honor! So strong!”
“But how is that 1000 honor points calculated?”
“By the game system, I guess?”
“Does this honor value have to be recognized by the country to be obtained?”
“Not necessarily; that’s probably just the condition for opening the Honor Roll. It can’t be that rigid.”
“Maybe it’s calculated based on the rewards given to her by the officials. Did they reward her with 1000 gold coins?”
“No, doesn’t anyone care about what she actually did?! I’m so curious about how she made such a huge contribution!”
“There’s a black and white; that public service text was really awkward.”
Yu Xunge: ???
Text message? What text message?
Just as Yu Xunge was looking for her phone, a series of private message notifications rang out in her game interface. She opened the private message window, and it was filled with unread messages; everyone on her friends list had messaged her.
Yu Xunge clicked on Zhao Shuying’s message first.
【Zhao Shuying】: The rewards are here! Besides the text message you received after waking up, the Special Affairs Bureau will reward you with 1000 dragon-shaped coins, an A-level skill book, and you can experience the God-given talent that has a chance to increase your attribute points 30 times.
Yu Xunge dug her phone out from under Tu Lan’s belly and opened the message.
【Public Service Text: The Special Affairs Bureau awards Yu Xunge the title of “Honorary Player,” thanking her for providing critical intelligence to the Bureau and making a significant contribution to Hua Xia. She is praised as “an arrow aimed at Zelan,” calling on the public to learn from her. 【Special Affairs Bureau】】
Yu Xunge buried her head deep into her pillow, tugging at her hair: Ah… ah… ah ah!!!
Kill him! Kill the person who wrote this text!!!
Help!!
A phrase more awkward than “As if Zelan lost the sun” has appeared!
Yu Xunge pulled the blanket over her head tightly.
—Wait, that’s not right!
She quickly threw off the blanket and opened the Honor Roll, only to see a lonely line.
Directory: Name Country Honor Points
Player: 【Anonymous】 Hua Xia 1000
Yu Xunge silently canceled her anonymity.
【Hua Xia】 Channel
“Wow, the mask is off~”
“Wow, if she hadn’t unmasked, we really wouldn’t have guessed who she was.”
“It’s her! It’s actually her! Our arrow!”
“Guess she just woke up and didn’t react, hahahahahahaha.”
“LOL, so awkward.”
“Can anything be more awkward than that phrase ‘an arrow aimed at Zelan’?”
“Who wrote that text! Next time I achieve something, I don’t want them writing it!”
“Me too.”
“Me too!”
“Me too…”
Yu Xunge: “…”
She closed the 【Hua Xia】 channel and began replying to the private messages in the game and the messages on her phone.
The family group chat was lively again.
【Qingshan Really Didn’t Expect】: @Yu Xunge Not bad!! You’ve made your dad proud! I’m proud of you!
【Qiu Guo Doesn’t Want to】: @Yu Xunge As expected of my baby! When your mom was pregnant with you, I knew you were special. I had so many prophetic dreams back then.
【Qiu Guo Doesn’t Want to】: I dreamed of dragons, I dreamed of phones; look, they all came true!
【Qingshan Really Didn’t Expect】: You dreamed of a dream dragon, okay? You even woke me up to go out and buy you one in the middle of the night!
【Yu Xunge】: So what’s with the phone?
【Qingshan Really Didn’t Expect】: She just wanted an excuse to get a new phone.
【Qiu Guo Doesn’t Want to】: Just say whether I can give birth! Is the baby strong or not!
【Missy I Was Wrong】: Of course, it’s strong!
【Missy I Was Wrong】: The little brother or sister in mommy’s belly must be happy for their big sister too, right?
As soon as Yu Xunhuan spoke, the entire group fell silent.
Why is everyone so quiet? Don’t they like to talk?!
