Once Liuli Yue typed those three characters into the search engine, a whole bunch of related searches intelligently popped up: things like "All Target-Selecting Mages are orphans," "I'll give away a Target-Selecting Mage for free," "Every Target-Selecting Mage can go die," and so on, a plentiful variety.
Little Luo took one look and gasped in shock, her eyes practically turning green with anger, but she bit her little sharp tooth, her eyes swirling around as she snatched it away, clattered away on the keyboard with a few keystrokes, and then tossed it back.
"Here, a present for you too!"
The mont Liuli Yue saw it, her eyebrows couldn't help but jerk in irritation. What the other had typed in were the words 'Karl,' and the results that popped up included: 'Choosing Karl ans you're an idiot,' 'Choose Karl and your whole family dies,' 'Pick Karl and I'll go AFK,' and so on.
Seeing this, Wu Di naturally understood; he knew all too well what his partner was like. So, these two guys have always been like two peas in a pod, one as bad as the other.
And that's where their discussion ended, they glared at each other, huffed, and turned their heads to walk away.
Wu Di sighed, about to say sothing, but having known his partner for so ti, Liuli Yue could guess what he was about to say. She simply covered her ears and rolled her eyes before heading back to the dormitory alone.
anwhile, Little Luo plopped down next to him, still bristling with anger, and muttered resentfully, "Wu Di brother, do you think I'm particularly bad at this?"
Wu Di naturally shook his head.
He knew that this little princess didn't just co to this place because of backdoor connections; it was her own real strength that brought her here.
She had actually joined as the newly promoted Attacker of the Silver Forest Spear, rumored to have topped the Ranger scores in that session's Youth Training Team. Silver Shadow's Qin Zhi was her ntor, and their styles were actually polar opposites.
This Little Luo was bold and daring, her disposition as fiery as her mouth, and even within this base, she was nearly solidifying her position as one of the top three newcors among Attackers.
Mu Xue was a junior to him and Liuli Yue, but she was already showing signs of becoming a leading figure among their cohort at the Youth Training Camp.
"That's right," the little Luo said discontentedly, pouting, "Your partner has such a bad temper, so stubborn and unpleasant. If it weren't for , probably no one could stand him."
After saying this, she carefully added, "Of course, except for you, Wu Di brother."
Wu Di shook his head, thinking to himself that the two of them were pretty much equal.
This thought unintentionally reminded him of soone he had t at Traveler's Rest—an equally unreliable person who had fought with his partner on Mazak's turf, leaving them both nearly bruised nose to swollen face.
But that person, Wu Di couldn't help but admire him in his heart—a Fairy Master so excellent, to see one in Eteliria was rare enough, let alone in the Second World.
He later reported the incident to the higher-ups of the Guild, but received no response, and his efforts to lobby Fang Hong proved fruitless as well.
It left him sowhat disappointed.
The sulky Little Luo sat next to him, no longer saying much, but instead started browsing through so information on his personal terminal within the community.
Wu Di saw her go straight for the hottest topic of the mont—
And it's no surprise, that post had probably been the most discussed topic within the Guild for so ti obviously owing to troubles befalling their old rivals, the Descendants of Flor's Jiefulite Red Cloak Team. Due to the scandal exposed in that post, these days the Descendants of Flor had not been having an easy ti.
For the Silver Forest Spear, this was naturally an occasion everyone was keen to celebrate.
People relished the misfortune of the Jiefulite Red Cloak Team as their PR staff ran ragged, but that post stubbornly stayed pinned in the hot zone of the community, without any sign of being taken down.
Wu Di even knew that there were private bets on how much longer that post would hang in the community.
Honestly, given that the club and consortium behind the Jiefulite Red Cloak Team were no lightweights in the real world, such an impactful post should have been removed on day one.
Yet miraculously, contrary to everyone's expectations, it remained up there.
In the beginning, it could have been an oversight, but as ti went on, people grew more curious—what kind of real resistance had Jiefulite Red Cloak Team encountered that allowed the post to remain so resolutely in the hot zone.
It was almost as if it was there for public execution.
More inford than the average Chosen, Wu Di even heard whispers that soone from the military was involved behind the scenes of the post.
While it seed improbable—since the military seldom interfered with the purely comrcialized rules of the Super Competitive League—it sohow made sense.
Who else could have such power if not the military?
Wu Di watched as Little Luo played the low-resolution video over and over again, then looked up to ask him, "He's so cool, Wu Di brother, are you as aweso as him?"
Wu Di knew she was talking about the protagonist in the video.
Honestly, the other party's operation didn't seem particularly impressive to him. However, considering this person ca from an unorthodox background and had an especially low level, he admitted that he might not be able to remain as calm in actual combat at that level.
Unlike his partner, Wu Di was always realistic.
Therefore, he shook his head.
"Exactly!" The little girl's eyes almost sparkled with tiny stars, "Everyone says that this person is the future star of hope! The China Competition Region's defeat in the Murky Domain was because we no longer have as many star Invokers, especially combat artisans like this!"
Deep down, Wu Di naturally disagreed with this point of view—not to ntion that the defeat itself had a certain randomness to it, which also involved various factors.
Besides, as an Invoker of his caliber, who among his peers could truly concede superiority to another?
But unlike his partner, he wouldn't try to convince anyone. He preferred to let his actions do the talking, so he just shook his head inwardly in response to the other party's remarks.
He saw the 'Little Princess' continue to flip through the pages; she obviously wasn't reading this post for the first ti and turned many pages with ease— he even saw her leave comnts and interact with others multiple tis in the post.
Just like a little fan.
At this mont, a rather conspicuous reply suddenly caught his eye:
Poster: Shana, Post Ti: 10,1,00:31
'Do you want to beco stronger, Madam?'
Mu Xue was montarily stunned. She seed hesitant but clicked on private communication to reply to the post:
'How can I beco stronger?'
Seeing this, Wu Di shook his head, thinking that the naivety of young girls was typical; such posts were a di a dozen in the community, most likely part of a scam.
He spoke up, "Don't believe him, it's a scam."
The little girl looked at him doubtfully, "But how did that person know about , I didn't say anything."
Wu Di was at a loss for words, "You didn't set your privacy settings, so people can see your self-introduction and so information."
The little girl 'oh'ed, looking at the reply with so skepticism.
It was precisely at this mont Wu Di saw the leader of the Silver Forest Spear's fourth team coming over from the other end of the hall, beckoning to her:
"Wu Di, are you free?"
Wu Di stood up and looked in that direction. The fourth team's leader happened to be in charge of arranging their activity plans, but in theory, since he and Liuli Yue had just returned to the base, they should have a day off.
Moreover, he noticed that there seed to be others with the leader—several young people wearing black trench coats—Wu Di was montarily taken aback when he saw these people.
He, of course, recognized them—they were from the military.
After thinking for a mont, he couldn't recall any recent interactions with the military. And speaking of which, the military seed a bit too active lately.
While thinking this, he nodded in that direction.
"Co here for a mont," the team leader said, "Soone is looking for you, don't worry, it's good news."
"Good news?" Wu Di was slightly startled internally.
"Wu Di Brother, those are people from the military." The knowledgeable little girl by his side also ca to the conclusion with just one glance at the situation.
Wu Di nodded at her but looked at the terminal in her hand and cautioned, "Don't believe the information on there, alright?"
The little girl hugged the terminal, nodding obediently at him.
