Oh no, I have become a character in the card pool?

Chapter 53 Don't worry, there is someone behind you now

"you are?"

Xia Shimi raised her head, a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes.

But she seemed to think that it was impolite to react like this when someone called her.

So I lowered my head and thought about it seriously.

Then, he raised his head again and shook his head: "Sorry, I still can't remember who you are."

"Have we ever met before?"

".you!"

This repetitive behavior seemed to amuse the female student. Her already wide eyes widened even wider and her chest heaved with anger.

What makes me even more angry is.

It seemed that the girl was not trying to irritate her, but she really meant it!

A very frank attitude!
"Have you forgotten that one and a half years ago, when you were transferred here from another war zone?"

Ning Qingqing frowned and said unhappily, "At that time, because the original Spirit Envoy stationed at the base was transferred away, the position became vacant."

"So the Night City branch has selected a group of qualified newcomers and is preparing to select new garrison personnel from them."

"And at that time, I had obviously already been selected! All that was left was to send out the assignment notice!"

When it comes to this.

Ning Qingqing's tone rose noticeably. Even though almost a year had passed, she still remembered the happiness, anticipation, and pride she felt when she told her family about it.

"But."

She paused.

He frowned and glared at the white-haired girl in front of him with an indifferent expression.

"It's because you suddenly showed up. I don't know where you were transferred from, but you just parachuted in and took my job."

"If I'm not as skilled as you, I'll admit it, but what gives you the right?"

At that time, I suddenly received a notice of the change.

I was very excited at first, thinking that even though I was not the best in the academy, I was finally recognized and appreciated.

All preparations have been made and there is room for us to make use of our strengths.

But in the end, it was just a piece of paper.

She then realized that her position had been suddenly reassigned to an outsider whom she did not even know and who had not even participated in the exam, a girl named Xia Shimi.

Ning Qingqing saw the other person from beginning to end and only saw him before he left.

She couldn't even imagine that the other person was even three years younger than her.

At that time, she had conducted a special investigation and confirmed that Xia Shimi did not even have a star level, and had not even successfully contracted a spirit.

I asked the examiner, but couldn't get anything out of him.

Saying this has nothing to do with you.

If this isn’t using backdoors or connections, what is it?
Although Ning Qingqing didn't know the specific situation of the garrison base, because she grew up in Linye City, she would only know when the transfer documents came down.

However, since they are officially recognized areas, they must be formal garrison bases in terms of procedures.

In this era, the greatest honor for every spirit contractor who graduated from the academy is to have a garrison base of his own.

With independent contract spirit summoning devices, upgrade equipment, and training locations, under good conditions, it is easier to get the summoned contract spirit to agree to sign a contract.

It's very simple.

Under the same conditions, the conditions of the contractors who have cars, houses and money to buy food are definitely much better than those interns who are still struggling to work like cattle and horses.

However, this identity that originally belonged to her was snatched away by an outsider who operated behind closed doors and took advantage of her identity and background.

How could Ning Qingqing not be jealous until now?
Because of Ning Qingqing's suddenly high voice, other people in the training base also looked over curiously.

There is no way, with keywords such as shady operations, relying on background, using power to coerce others and snatch resources, etc.

This is simply a hot search code that naturally attracts attention.

They looked at the petite figure wrapped in a cloak with even the face not exposed.

Although they didn't know the details and didn't make any direct comments, they couldn't help but start discussing it.

"."

Xia Shimi lowered her eyes and did not reply.

She remembered where she had seen him before, on the day she was about to be transferred to area E-026.

Unlike Ning Qingqing, who had never been to the real front line since childhood and had only followed the large troops on sweeps in safe areas.

Xia Shimi just glanced at the location of the garrison base.

She knew that it would be a suicide mission.

However, when Ning Qingqing caught up with her and angrily questioned her, she did not make any excuses, but just glanced and left.

Because there is no need for that.

All I need to do is kill it physically, because there's a good chance I won't be able to come back once I go.

Why should a female student whose mindset is still at the university level bear this kind of psychological pressure so early?

What's more, compared to the announcement of the night market branch.

As an outsider with no relatives or friends, no matter how she explained, it would sound like quibbling and would only be a waste of words in the end.

And now.

Faced with Ning Qingqing's questioning, the white-haired girl's personality made her unwilling to make any excuses. "Excuse me." She looked directly at the other party and said calmly, not caring that this behavior, which was equivalent to tacit consent, would cause the surrounding discussion to take a sharp turn for the worse.

"You!" Ning Qingqing raised her eyebrows, and she seemed to want to say something.

But right now.

A clear and warm voice interrupted the tense situation.

"Excuse me, I would like to ask, is my spirit master still here?"

This sudden sound interrupted the argument and naturally attracted the attention of the people around.

He was a young man with black hair and black eyes, and looked to be in his early eighteen years old.

His smile was faint.

Ignoring the gazes of many people around him, after seeing Xia Shimi, he strolled over to her.

Said: "Because Miss Mu said that she has sent you a message for the third time and you haven't replied yet."

"I asked around and it seems that even spirits can enter this base, so I took the initiative and came in to find you."

"Ah?" Xia Shimi opened her eyes wide.

That reaction was even more panicked than when he was questioned and talked about by everyone before.

She quickly picked up the communicator, only to find that the "beep beep" sound was not the first time, but the third time.

Perhaps it was because when she was training before, her concentration was so focused that she had no distractions.

Therefore, it automatically isolates itself from external disturbances.

"Sorry, I didn't notice," Xia Shimi quickly lowered her head.

"It's okay." Lin Xuan shrugged nonchalantly. He looked around at the futuristic facilities and smiled in amazement, "I'm not in a hurry anyway."

"I have only been summoned for a short time. I would like to have more time to understand this era."

And this time.

The onlookers around only then realized that the identity of the black-haired boy who suddenly broke in was actually a contracted spirit.

This training base allows Qi Ling and Qi Ling Envoy to enter and train together.

However, most of the contracted spirits summoned from broken time and space would have some resistance to modern facilities.

Nor are they used to being exposed to the eyes of most modern people.

Therefore, the alliance has built exclusive training areas for them in styles such as "dojo", "forest", "martial arts hall", "Buddhist temple", etc.

Therefore, it is a rare thing to see Qi Ling in this training base.

And a spirit contract like Lin Xuan, who looks unremarkable on the outside, would be useless if he didn't speak on his own initiative.

Previously, I had always thought that he was a spirit master who forgot to wear his uniform.

"Now you finally have your own soulmate?"

Ning Qingqing's voice sounded again.

She frowned, glanced at Lin Xuan, and slightly restrained the unhappiness on her expression.

No matter how dissatisfied she was with Xia Shimi, it had nothing to do with Lin Xuan.

As a spirit envoy.

The atmosphere in the Broken Age and what they learned in the academy since childhood is that no matter how weak and insignificant a contract spirit looks,

However, the other party is a heroic spirit who can leave a legend in history, and we should respect him no matter what.

If it weren’t for these heroes, heroic spirits, and heroes.

Willing to fight with a second life.

Then the current human civilization would have been destroyed decades ago, let alone prospering.

However, Ning Qingqing was not targeting Lin Xuan, but she was more dissatisfied with the white-haired girl.

Look, this is the person who couldn’t even make a contract with a spirit more than a year ago.

Just because she had taken over the position of garrisoning the base and had better resources and blocks, she successfully contracted a spirit!
This Qi Ling was so nice to her and was good-looking. Even if he had no fighting power, it would be fine to just keep him by her side as a vase to please the eyes.

This is so infuriating!
".Let's go, Lin Xuan."

Xia Shimi glanced at the female student who was glaring at her. She tugged at Lin Xuan's clothes and whispered, "I don't have much to do here. It's more important to finish your business first."

Lin Xuan glanced at her.

He heard many muffled voices - but after he upgraded, his keen hearing could hear the discussions clearly.

"it is good."

He smiled and patted the girl on the back.

immediately.

Lin Xuan reached into his pocket, took out the temporary mobile phone issued to him, and dialed a number.

"Hey, is this Miss Mu? Yes, that's right. I'm looking for someone in the training base you mentioned earlier."

"But your place is too big. I got lost while walking."

"I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to wait a little longer."

"What? You're outside now too. Do you want to come in to find me? No, no, that's not necessary. I can just find a staff member to ask for directions."

"Oh, there are still some instructions for the appraisal that I need to explain. Okay, okay, thank you for your help."
