Chapter 198: Intelligence (Part 3)

The classroom projector was paused, and Li Yixiao was furious, "Is he laughing at me, Li Yixiao? Huh? How dare he laugh at us, what arrogance! I will catch him and make him laugh all he wants!"

All the other practitioners were speechless but they didn't know how to disagree with Li Yixiao's opinion… The other party was indeed laughing . . .

One of the practitioners spoke carefully, "Could he be mentally ill?!"

Everyone was stunned and started replaying the other party's laughter within their minds . And indeed, the other party's laughter had a silly vibe as if he had no intellect at all… Everyone suddenly realized that what this colleague said was possible!

Li Yixiao calmed down and replayed the video . Something just didn't feel right but what was it?!

What was the laughter about?!

This simpleton had become a mystery to all of the members of the heavenly network . . .

"Increase the security and let's not be careless… A Class C practitioner first and now a simpleton metahuman?! What's the problem with Luo Cheng?! Are these people messing with me, Li Yixiao? Can't they just mess around in some other turf?" Li Yixiao lamented .

On the other hand, Lu Shu had been receiving a continuous chain of distress points from the heavenly network . And now, he suddenly received two instances of large distress points from Li Yixiao . He couldn't understand the situation .

How could Lu Shu know that he was the culprit for both the troubles getting on Li Yixiao's nerves . . .

. . .

Li Xianyi was resting on the couch in his house and nearing noon, Aunty Liu came in, "The exchanging of test tubes has been settled . "

Li Xianyi opened his eyes, "Was that brat involved?"

"I don't think so," Aunty Liu shook her head, "It was a weird metahuman covered in black smoke and it loved laughing . The heavenly network has checked for fingerprints on the test tube and there's no problem . And the culprit was shot during the escape . "

Li Xianyi nodded, "It seems like it's really not him . At least we can confirm that the kid wasn't injured but where did this metahuman come from?"

"The concentration of magical energy is still on the rise and awakenings would be absolutely normal . Even those without sufficient aptitude to train could soon be able to . "

"Alright, it's good that this had nothing to do with him . I thought that kid has some hidden card," Li Xianyi started reading the maths textbook in his hand again . . .

"What if he really has a hidden card? What would you do?" Aunty Liu asked gleefully .

"So what if he has? Who doesn't? I wouldn't be surprised and in fact, I'm quite curious just what cards this kid could be hiding . He doesn't seem like the straightforward kind so he must have many secrets," Li Xianyi was flipping through the math textbook, "I'd be disappointed if he didn't have any . "

For some reason, Aunty Liu suddenly said, "These two kids are very good . "

Li Xianyi looked up at her and smiled, "Indeed . "

. . .

Next door, Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu were whispering amongst themselves, "For future references, although the time constraints this time was tight, it shouldn't be a reason for us to act recklessly . We should investigate the patrol thoroughly and be sure of their timings and strength . And we have to confirm the route of invasion and retreat too . Do you have anything to add?"

Lu Xiaoyu nodded, "Ok, nothing much to add . Our route for invasion wasn't an issue but the retreat was rather hasty . We should have waited and avoided foreign environments as much as possible . And at that point in time, we couldn't confirm if there were any patrol in the corridor . "

"That's right," Lu Shu noted down what Lu Xiaoyu said .

With only basic knowledge about combat strategy, the two of them came together to summarize their mission, and they looked especially serious . . .

Lu Shu suddenly sighed, "We are too weak . Everyone else is fully prepared but we don't have any intelligence . If only you could absorb more souls, we could recruit a flock of sparrows to be our recce . Our opponents would not be able to expect this and even if we lost them, it wouldn't matter . "

Lu Xiaoyu was unhappy at the sound of that, "Who said it wouldn't matter . Is that the reason why you destroyed my pig?!"

At this moment, little fury had sneaked into the house from the window . Frankly speaking, if Lu Shu had not seen it, he had almost forgotten about its existence!

But for some reason, Lu Shu suddenly had an idea, "little fury, come here!"

At that moment, little fury was frozen on the window railing… Oh no . . .

"I'm not going to scold you . Come here, I've something to discuss," Lu Shu waved his hand to signal little fury over .

Skeptical, little fury came over, only to see Lu Shu present him with a refresher fruit in his palm . Little fury's eyes were suddenly filled with passion and desire for evolution!

After so many days of observation, Lu Shu felt that items like the refresher fruits could be given to others given the correct opportunity . And as of now, the old man next door was one of them . Lu Shu wanted to use the refresher fruits to aid the old man to improve his health and only under life-threatening situations, he would bring them out .

But after so long, he never found the right opportunity and there was no way he could explain the source of the fruits .

Perhaps the next time he entered remains could be an opportunity to claim that he got them inside .

But right now, Lu Shu felt that he could test it out on little fury . Furthermore, the idea he suddenly thought of was to put little fury to good use!

Little fury saw the refresher fruit and couldn't help but reached out for it . But with a flick of his wrist, the refresher fruit disappeared .

"Let me ask you, can you communicate with the rats outside? Do they listen to your commands? Tell me the truth before I give you the fruit!" Lu Shu questioned .

Little fury looked at Lu Shu and hesitated since Lu Xiaoyu didn't allow it to play with the other rats… But in the end, little fury couldn't resist the refresher fruit's temptation and nodded .

"Prove it to me," Lu Shu said .

Little fury then hurried out and within two minutes, it had called over four to five little brothers that lined up neatly…

Lu Shu was delighted, "You can communicate with them?"

Little fury nodded .

Lu Shu felt like he had just found his source of information!
