WTYTIAAN Chapter 133

Chapter 133

No good to eat?

Yan Yunqing:?

Why is he threatening me? Immediately following that, he saw the handler pull out a half-eaten fruit from who knows where and stuff it into the griffin’s mouth, “We need to fly to Norman Forest quickly, or all the good fruit will be eaten by your colleagues.”

As soon as the handler said this, the affectionate griffin seemed to be injected with a stimulant, and the aura of the entire griffin soared.

Yan Yunqing: …

So that’s what he meant by good fruit.

The affectionate griffin lowered its neck in front of them, waiting for these ‘petite and adorable’ humans to climb onto its back.

There were only four seats on each griffin. Besides the driver’s seat occupied by the handler, the remaining seats were for them. Teacher Walkerly took the lead and sat next to the handler, leaving two seats behind.

Robin and William looked at each other, neither of them really wanting to ride the same griffin as the teacher. Although Teacher Walkerly was very approachable, the difference in status between teacher and student was there, and it was impossible to get used to it.

Yan Yunqing didn’t care and directly took the back seat of Teacher Walkerly. While the others hesitated, Demetrius sighed imperceptibly and climbed into the other seat.

The remaining three members of Squad A collectively breathed a sigh of relief. Robin gave Yan Yunqing and Demetrius a thumbs up, worthy of being the squad leader and his accessory, truly taking on the responsibilities of the leader… and the accessory!

Demetrius had a blank face, and no one could see any emotion from his expressionless face.

The remaining three got on another griffin, and the other two squads under Teacher Walkerly also boarded the mounts arranged for them.

After confirming that nothing was missing, Teacher Walkerly nodded, and the flying magical beasts carrying them took off one after another, heading towards Norman Forest at full speed.

*

Outside the Norman Forest.

At this moment, many students had already gotten off their flying magical beasts. Some were extremely excited, while others were as pale as paper, grabbing a nearby tree and throwing up.

Yan Yunqing wasn’t in much better shape when he got off. His steps were a bit unsteady, and his legs were still a bit weak when he landed on solid ground. He felt like he was stepping on clouds, and he would fall down if he wasn’t careful.

On the other hand, Demetrius beside him was perfectly fine, not even a little bit affected. His complexion was even a bit rosy?

Was this reasonable?

This was very unreasonable!

Yan Yunqing had taken planes on Blue Star before, but planes flew stably in the sky. They wouldn’t suddenly dive down and then suddenly raise the field of vision, and they certainly wouldn’t fly and suddenly spin around, emitting a pleasant cry.

If it weren’t for the safety ropes on the seats, and Yan Yunqing had firmly secured himself to the seat as soon as he sat down, then he would have experienced an otherworld version of bungee jumping, the one-time, unroped kind.

Yan Yunqing even suspected that even if he wore the [Eternal Song of the White Bird], the health-locking cheat wouldn’t guarantee that he could survive, because falling from this height would definitely turn him into mincemeat, right?

One newbie, one griffin, one alchemical item, one domesticated magical beast. These two means of transportation exclusive to the academy were still a bit too individualistic.

Riding these two things really depended on luck. If you were lucky, you would arrive at your destination smoothly. If you were unlucky, you would really experience what a roller coaster was like.

The griffin William and the others rode was a bit better, but William’s face wasn’t much better than Yan Yunqing’s when he got off. Like many students who started throwing up as soon as they got off the magical beast, he also threw up. For a time, the air was filled with an unspeakable smell.

Yan Yunqing couldn’t help but move away a bit, glad that he hadn’t eaten much this morning. Even if his stomach was a bit churning now, he wouldn’t throw up directly.

Teacher Walkerly shook his head repeatedly when he saw this, “You guys are still too weak, especially you, William. You are a swordsman. The two mages in your team are fine, so why did you, a swordsman, throw up first?”

William: “I… urgh!”

Yan Yunqing glanced sideways. It wasn’t really William’s fault. Some people were just more prone to motion sickness.

Some people in the other two teams led by Teacher Walkerly were also airsick, throwing up so hard they couldn’t catch their breath. It looked like they were going to be useless today. In this state, let alone fighting magical creatures, they would probably lie down after walking a few steps.

Yan Yunqing looked around at his team. Good, only William in their team threw up, and the others were in pretty good shape.

Especially Rowena, after such a thrilling long roller coaster ride, her face wasn’t red and her heart wasn’t racing. She didn’t even wobble after getting off the griffin, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing Yan Yunqing looking at her, Rowena immediately understood what he was thinking and smiled at him, “I also threw up very badly the first time I rode a griffin, but I got used to it later and didn’t throw up anymore.”

Yan Yunqing suddenly remembered: Rowena had participated in battles before, and she had often ridden magical beasts back and forth at that time. Under those harsh survival conditions, people who didn’t get used to it had long been left on the battlefield, and there was no chance of survival at all.

William finally recovered after throwing up for a while. His face was still a bit ugly, but his spirits had improved a lot.

Robin: “There are recovery potions in the space bracelet. If you feel uncomfortable, drink one, and I guarantee it will cure you.”

William rubbed his cheeks. Demetrius waved his magic wand casually, and without even seeing him chant a spell, a ball of water appeared in front of William. William wasn’t surprised, rinsed his mouth with the ball of water, and washed his face with the water, and his entire state recovered.

“It’s okay, I’ve adjusted.”

Was it because he was a child after all? He recovered his energy so quickly.

Yan Yunqing sighed: Speaking of which, he seemed to have only just come of age not long ago. Why did he always feel like he was already very old…?

Robin shrugged, “I’m just giving you a suggestion. It’s good if you think you can handle it, but don’t be stubborn if you really can’t handle it. Anyway, the squad leader has already paid for these potions in advance, so use them freely!”

He waved his hand, and anyone who didn’t know better would have thought he was the rich man.

William was speechless: “Isn’t it just a little bit of points? How many points? I’ll transfer them to you later.”

Robin wiggled his fingers, “It cost nearly ten thousand points in total, and your share is about two thousand.”

William staggered: “How much?!”

“Two thousand, oh.” Robin smiled and held up two fingers in front of William’s eyes, “Are you really going to pay?”

William was silent.

Academy points were not easy to obtain. The only channels to obtain a large number of points were activities like external training or trading points with other students.

However, points were the common currency within the academy, and no student would be foolish enough to use all their points to exchange for money that was difficult to spend in the academy. Therefore, even William, a prince of a country, had a total of only nearly two thousand points in his account.

As a result, Robin said that the materials for this external training cost ten thousand points, which was simply an astronomical figure.

Even Rowena was a little surprised. She had participated in battles and had been injured for it, and she had a lot of points in her hand, but she couldn’t help but be secretly shocked when she heard Yan Yunqing’s such a large-scale move.

Wasn’t their squad leader a first-year student who had just entered the academy? Where did he get so many points?

And he was so generous, spending so much on a simple first-year external training?

How much equipment did he have to buy??

Just as they were talking about points, another squad passed by and also heard Robin’s words, and they all looked in their direction in surprise.

“Ten thousand points?”

After seeing Yan Yunqing’s good-looking but unfamiliar face, they all showed skeptical expressions.

“Who is this? Ten thousand points? Isn’t he afraid of choking himself with such a big tone?”

“I’m afraid he’s confused between dreams and reality.”

“None of the third-year seniors I know can save up ten thousand points. This person is obviously bragging…”

“What are you talking about? What ten thousand points?”

“Oh, it’s that squad over there. It’s hilarious. Someone in their squad said that they prepared materials worth ten thousand points for this external training! Isn’t that ridiculous?”

“Wow, ten thousand points? Then they would have to buy all the props and potions from the academy exchange, hahaha.”

“…”

The sounds of discussion around them never stopped, and the noise was so loud that they wanted to lie directly next to their ears and speak.

The members of Squad A silently lowered their heads and looked at Robin with condemning gazes. It wasn’t that they didn’t believe that Yan Yunqing didn’t have these ten thousand points, or that Robin was exaggerating.

The main thing was that they were not in the academy now, and their safety was not fully guaranteed. It was necessary to remember not to reveal their wealth when going out.

Robin lowered his head and humbly accepted the condemnation from his teammates.

Their silence was also recognized by the people around them as being guilty after bragging. The various gazes that had originally fallen on them suddenly retracted.

No one really thought that a first-year student could have ten thousand points. Even if they did, they couldn’t exchange them all for materials. It was like they were not here to participate in a half-month external training, but were preparing to go directly to the front line, right?

Feeling that the gazes on them were gradually disappearing, the five people breathed a sigh of relief, especially Demetrius. He didn’t like being the focus of everyone’s attention. This time, all the eyes were on them, and Demetrius almost dug a hole on the spot and buried himself.

He secretly glanced at Yan Yunqing beside him and curled his lips.

Flamboyant fellow, he should stay away from him.

Yan Yunqing felt Demetrius’s gaze and looked back, only to find Demetrius glaring at him secretly.

Yan Yunqing: Huh?

What happened? What did little mushroom want to express?

Little mushroom didn’t speak.

Yan Yunqing didn’t continue to explore what his taciturn roommate was thinking, but looked at the distant forest. The lush forest was shrouded in a layer of faint white mist, like a light veil draped over the forest by the sun, making it appear mysterious and dangerous.

Yan Yunqing frowned. Since he stood here, he had a strange premonition. He couldn’t say it was dangerous, but he always felt like they might encounter something next.

An illusion?

Well… in short, be vigilant. In general film, television, and literature, the protagonist group always encounters some dangers and opportunities when they go to an unfamiliar place to train.

I wonder if he will meet Lillian?

Elf territory… ah, it seems to be a bit far from here?
