Snow's figure disappeared from Deathsong Academy

"Snow".

Karl's voice rang out clearly within the desolate Deathsong Academy.

"My God."

The moment the words fell, a dark shadow quietly emerged from the corner.

The dark figure slowly coalesced, revealing Snow's respectful form—he bowed slightly, his posture humble.

Carl gently raised his hand, and an object appeared out of thin air in his palm.

"Take this with you and go find the Devourer."

"Yes."

Snow had no doubts or hesitation, and his figure disappeared into the shadows of the academy.

I ate so many delicious things!

Carl raised his hand and tapped lightly, and a blue planet appeared on the virtual panel in front of him.

"Earth... is suspected to be the origin of the pre-Pangu civilization." He muttered to himself, "As expected... it's not that simple."

His gaze fell on the planet, a faint yet real interest flashing in his eyes.

"Let me see... just how many 'surprises' you can bring me."

-----------------

In the evening, Qilin and Azhui took me to the food street~

I ate so many delicious things!

[Yes, although Ah-Zhui isn't the brightest, she's still a really nice person.]

Ah-Zhui: ...Who, who's not very smart?!

Angel Yan: Pfft, poor little A-Zhui~

Zhi Xin: Ah Zhui... Although she's not a research angel, she shouldn't be considered unintelligent either, right?

Zhi Xin: Angels have very high brain development, so they shouldn't be unintelligent no matter what...

Not only did he lead me to the Taotie, but on the way back I was a little sleepy, and Ah Zhui thoughtfully slowed down.

Ah-Zhui: Hmph! If I had known you were this heartless, I shouldn't have been so good to you!!

However, Qi Lin said that friends should be tolerant of each other, so even if A-Zhui isn't very smart, I'll still be a good friend to her!

Ah-Zhui: ...Should I thank you?

Angel Yan: Hahaha, Little A-Zhui, did you get a "friend zone" card?

Zhi Xin: Logically speaking, "tolerance" is usually used to accept the other person's shortcomings.

Zhi Xin: So Su Bai's statement is still based on the premise that A-Zhui has the flaw of being "not smart"...

Zhi Xin: Ah Zhui, do you need me to design a brain activation training program for you?

A-Zhui: Zhi Xin!! Even you—!

I don't know why, but my head always feels itchy when I write in my diary...

Angel Yan: Is your head itchy?

He Xi: Pfft, is the little guy starting to "grow his brain"?

[Alright, Xiaoxue says we can collect today's reward now~]

The diary entries stopped here.

Su Bai looked at the reward panel that appeared before his eyes:

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained: A magical music player]

A flash of white light appeared, and a strangely shaped device appeared in his hand.

It is entirely silver-white, but two small metal wings, one black and one white, extend from each side.

Su Bai held it in his hand, turning it over and over to examine it, then turned to look at Xiao Xue:

"Xiaoxue, what is this?"

"Didn't I tell you? It's a music player." Xiaoxue's voice carried a hint of helplessness.

Su paused for two seconds, then reorganized her thoughts:

"Xiaoxue, what's this... for?"

"What else can a music player do? Of course, it's for playing music." Xiaoxue's light patterns flickered slightly.

Su Bai remained silent.

Su Bai pondered.

Su Bai opened his mouth—

"Stop, stop, stop! I know what you want to ask!"

Xiaoxue quickly interrupted him before he could ask the next question.

"However..." It drifted closer, and a series of fine data patterns flowed across the surface of the sphere.

"There were no instructions for use, and I'm not quite sure what its specific 'effects' will be."

Su Bai suddenly realized:

"So Xiaoxue didn't know either."

The "magical music player" lay quietly in Su Bai's palm, its black and white wings gleaming with a slightly cold light.

Su Bai studied it for a long time but still couldn't find the switch button.

He tried poking the white wings, then touching the black wings, and finally even blew on them.

No response.

"Is it broken?" Su Bai asked Xiao Xue, looking up at her.

"...Try injecting a little energy into it," Xiaoxue suggested. "Since it's a system reward item, it should be compatible with your energy system."

"Energy?" Su Bai thought for a moment, then extended his index finger and gently tapped the center of the player.

A faint white light flowed from his fingertips and entered the player.

The next second—

Click.

Black and white wings unfolded simultaneously, fluttering gently like real wings.

then……

There was no reaction at all.

Su Bai looked at Xiao Xue, who was equally surprised.

It flew around the player once, the light patterns on the surface of the sphere flickering:

"This shouldn't be happening... How could it not be effective?"

"Could it be..." Su Bai asked tentatively, "...broken?"

"Impossible!" Xiaoxue's voice suddenly rose, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "How could an item given by the system be broken! You're questioning my professionalism!"

Seeing her reaction, Su Bai seemed to be deep in thought.

—Looking at it this way, this prop might actually be... broken.

Since that's the case, Su Bai stopped worrying about it.

"Let it go if it's broken," he said, casually stuffing the player back into his pocket.

"Hmph! You actually don't believe me!!" Xiaoxue's eyes trembled with anger. "You wait! I'll check the item encyclopedia—it's definitely not broken! You must be the one operating it wrong!"

Before Su Bai could even respond, it vanished in a flash.

Su Bai didn't react much to this.

He refocused his mind and continued writing in his diary within his own consciousness.

As for why I wrote it...

Hmm, that itchy feeling in my head when I'm writing in my diary—

Very comfortable.

Xiaoxue has left.

???

Staring at the suddenly updated diary, especially this nonsensical sentence, all the women reading the diary were stunned.

Didn't we say before that Xiaoxue would take full responsibility for Su Bai's soul being damaged due to her mistake?

How long has it been... and he's already gone?

Is this system really that irresponsible?

In the next room.

Upon seeing this, Qi Lin immediately sat up in bed, hesitating whether to go and check on Su Bai.

She was somewhat worried

For Su Bai, Xiaoxue was more than just a system; she was a companion.

If it really leaves, will Su Bai...?

However, the diary was updated again the next second.

Today's system reward is something very strange.

It's a music player with black and white wings.

The system didn't tell me what it was for.

[Xiaoxue didn't know either; after I injected energy, it only spread its wings and then stopped responding.]

I thought it was broken, but Xiaoxue said it wasn't, and that it was my operation that was wrong.

She went back to check the prop encyclopedia, saying she wanted to figure out exactly how to use it.

Women: ...

So it means "left"!

Qi Lin lay back on the bed with a dark expression, rubbing her temples helplessly.

It was a false alarm.
