NOVEL NEXT Chapter 79 - 79 Collie’s Tragic Life
79 Collie’s Tragic Life
Fang Ping carefully closed the book and put it away. This was an old book to begin with, so he had to treat it carefully.
Ivan sized up the dormitory environment. “Is this the dormitory that has three Elite Team slots? It looks quite ordinary.”
Then, he twitched his nose. “This is the smell of Philistine Ginseng.”
“What the hell are you doing here?”
Ivan smiled and sat on the chair. He took out a small fruit from his pocket and put it in his mouth.
“Are you still the class president of the Forbidden Spell Division?”
“Of course. Don’t you know who I am?” Ivan threw another fruit into his mouth.
“Do you know anything about the Dark Forest?”
“I do.”
Ivan threw another fruit into his mouth.
“So what exactly are you going to do? Eat in front of me?”
Ivan glanced at the door. “Can you close it?”
Just as he was about to ask him why he did not close the door, Fang Ping took another look at his figure and closed the door.
“I just found out about the Dark Forest. There’s a reason for their unrest.
It seems that the Elven Princess came to secretly visit the Dark Forest, but was captured by Humans when she left.”
“Ah? Elven Princess?”
“Elf Princess Sif, she’s in favor of the Human Alliance. If something happens to her, the impact will be unimaginable.
Right now, we’ve only found out that the team that captured the Elven Princess is heading to Goby Highlands, and there’s only one Human city there, Ice Snow City.”
“Our team is going to Goby Highlands next. Don’t tell me we are going to save her?”
“Ice Snow City is also a Human-dwelling, and it’s impossible for them to send troops on a large scale. They’re probably sending some elites over to investigate the situation.”
“Yeah.”
Ivan did not say anything else. He looked at Fang Ping in silence.
“What happened?”
“I have a favor to ask of you.”
Seeing Ivan’s sudden seriousness, Fang Ping nodded. “What is it? Just say it.”
“If, I mean if, William is really going to die, I hope you can save him. Of course, if you can’t, forget it. Sigh, why am I talking about it?”
Ivan threw another fruit into his mouth. “Forget it. Just pretend I didn’t say anything. It’s fine.”
Ivan propped himself up on the chair and walked out. “It’s fine. Rest more.”
Seeing Ivan shake his head and walk out again, Fang Ping did not know what was going on with him.
What did he have to do with William? Fang Ping did not know.
Just as he was about to pick up the book to read, he suddenly saw something fall from the chair Ivan had just sat on.
He walked over and saw that it was a golden leaf.
One gold coin?
Fang Ping did not believe that such a thing could be left behind.
As if you would walk around with 300,000 dollars in your pocket? Definitely not.
This must be the reward Ivan mentioned just now.
He did not know what would happen, but since he had accepted the money, he would pay more attention to William. He hoped that nothing would happen to him.
Fang Ping looked at the beautiful gold coin in his palm.
Happy.
It could also be used on special characteristics.
He put away the gold coin. Now the key to advancing to Class 2 was to conserve energy.
He would think about it after he really advanced to Class 2 tomorrow.
After going to the Giant Cannon Plaza for a meal of pancake slices and meat soup, Fang Ping began to purchase things.
Goby Highlands was different from the Dark Forest. Fang Ping had a map. This name sounded very cold. It was a highland, and the temperature was low when the sea was higher. It was necessary to prepare some warmth.
A few sets of thick clothes, thick socks, a few pieces of firewood, two bags of kerosene, and some yellow powder pancakes, jerky, dried fruits, and so on.
Fang Ping missed the days when he had long johns, so he did not have to be afraid of the cold.
He carried his big bag and was about to return to the dormitory when he bumped into Yuye. She had also set up a stall to sell things.
“Yuye, what are you doing?”
“Teacher Fang Ping?”
He glanced at Yuye’s stall. There were all kinds of dry food.
“A few days ago, the Dark Forest was closed, and many dry rations were in low demand. I bought a batch of goods, and now that the price has risen a little, I’m selling them.
“By the way, Teacher Fang Ping, do you want to buy some dry rations?”
“Yeah.”
In any case, dry rations could be kept for a long time. There was no need to worry about it expiring. It was not a problem to buy some.
Soon, Fang Ping returned to the dormitory with another large cloth bag in his hand.
Collie was half-lying on the bed. The moment Fang Ping returned, he sat up. “Fang Ping.”
“What’s wrong? Are you waiting for me?”
Putting down the things in his hands and on his back, Fang Ping sat on the chair.
“Tomorrow morning, you’ll be leaving?”
“We’re gathering at the north gate tomorrow morning at six o’clock. I don’t know when I’ll be back.”
Goby Highlands was not a Dark Forest. It was not something that could be reached in a day or two. Who knew how long it would take to walk there.
After waiting for a long time, Collie did not say anything. Fang Ping went out to wash his face and prepare to tidy up his things.
Packing up was also a headache for Fang Ping. Wasn’t the transmigration journey usually given an interspatial ring? Why wasn’t there one?
Or if he didn’t have an interspatial ring, other storage items were fine too. It was too difficult to carry this huge backpack every day and be careful not to be stolen.
Fang Ping looked at his backpack with a headache. There was a cut on the bottom. Fortunately, this was a backpack used to buy supplies. It was just that he was missing some dry food. Coincidentally, he had bought a lot from Yuye, so it did not affect him much.
However, this was also a reminder to Fang Ping. He had to be careful.
However, when he was in the Razor Sharp Squad, the backpack he took was of good quality. He didn’t know what kind of skin it was, but it was quite thick. There was no trace of it at all.
While he was packing, Collie spoke again from the bed.
“Fang Ping, are you really not going tomorrow night?”
“Going where? I’m going to Goby Highlands.”
“Lin Xin Restaurant.”
“Ah? Where is it? I’ve never heard of it.”
Collie was silent for a moment before saying, “Tomorrow night, Moon Bell will be holding her coming-of-age ceremony there… Should you be going?”
Fang Ping did not answer him. He did not know what the customs here were like. What if participating meant confessing?
Fang Ping told Moon Bell at noon that he was going to Goby Highlands tomorrow morning. Moon Bell did not have any special reaction. It should be fine.
“Never mind.”
He heard Collie sigh and lie down again without saying anything else.
Fang Ping thought that he would be able to listen to stories again today, but it seemed that he did not.
Just as he thought this, Collie, who was on the bed, said, “If my father didn’t object to the aristocratic cancellation back then, how good would that be? Wouldn’t it be good to not be a noble and open a chamber of commerce?”
Fang Ping also slowed down his movements and listened to him.
“If not for him, I would definitely object to the aristocratic cancellation. How could my current life be so down and out?
Now that he was living at his aunt’s house, he had to listen to others. I really hated him to death!
Moon Bell, when she was young, she had always followed behind me and called me Brother Collie. Now that her family is rich, she had also become disdainful of me.”
