All my teammates online are my girlfriends

"Take a bite first."

Feeling uneasy, Qin Yunmo directly held the apple to Lin Qiu's mouth. He would only feel at ease if the guy ate it without any problems!

"you sure?"

"is there a problem?"

"No, as long as you don't mind."

Lin Qiu raised an eyebrow and, under the watchful eyes of many in the classroom, took a big bite out of the apple.

A faint sound of an unidentified object being crushed came from inside the classroom, accompanied by a suppressed, excited gasp, all of which reached Qin Yunmo's ears.

This time, she finally realized the inappropriateness of her behavior and withdrew her hand, her ears turning red.

Staring at the half-eaten apple in his hand, he was unsure whether to continue eating it or toss it back to the guy.

When faced with this dilemma, there is only one choice!

Amidst the onlookers' eager anticipation, Qin Yunmo suddenly stood up, walked straight to Ze Zhi, and whispered—

"Sawari, come with me for a bit. There are some things I'd like to talk to you about."

"Huh? Ah—okay."

Although she didn't know what Yunmo was up to, Zezhi still obediently followed him out.

Otherwise, if we stay here any longer, Ya Ya will start asking all sorts of random questions.

As the two left, the murmurs in the class grew louder. In everyone's eyes, the class monitor had obviously run away!

What does this mean? It clearly means they have a guilty conscience!

Lin Qiu, who was left inside the classroom, naturally felt the murderous gazes of the boys, and her eyelids twitched involuntarily.

What are you looking at? This is pure camaraderie, don't overthink it!

“You and the class monitor have been discussing this a lot lately.”

Just then, Qi Xi, who was sitting at the table in front of her, turned around with amusement and waved her phone in her hand.

I browsed the school forum and found that most of the posts were about the two of them, and sometimes they even brought up Sawari.

This level of popularity is even higher than any school event!

"These guys are just bored and have nothing better to do. Let them talk. It's not a big deal."

"Are you sure that you're at the top of the school's love rival ranking right now, with a much higher level of hatred than the second-highest? Quite a few people have already left messages wanting to assassinate you."

"..."

Lin Qiu's lips twitched, but then his eyes lit up as if he had thought of something.

"Xiaoxi, your uncle is the principal, right?"

"what happened?"

"Could you see if you can get him to arrest all those people who left comments threatening to assassinate me, and give them all demerits?"

"Can't you do anything right...?"

Qi Xi rolled her eyes in annoyance. Is this what a principal is for? Don't even think about it.

Lin Qiu smiled, not taking it too seriously, and took out a few pieces of fruit from the bag and handed them to Qi Xi.

"One night has passed, do you feel your magic power has increased a little?"

"I've adapted quite a bit, and I should have enough magic power to unleash five skills in a row now. What about you? No movement from your heart?"

"I feel so peaceful and sound asleep, it's incredibly comforting."

Lin Qiu touched his chest, his face full of relief.

Although we don't know what that miniature tree is all about, we'll just have to wait and see.

Qi Xi glanced at him, and only after confirming that there was no problem did she speak again—

"After school, go home early to pack your bags. We're leaving tonight."

"So urgent?"

"The situation at Taixu Mountain is quite serious, especially since the entire Taixu Mountain was passively sealed off in the early hours of last night."

"Passive blockade?"

"The plants on Mount Taixu have grown wildly, covering the surrounding mountains. There are also aggressive plants on the outer perimeter, keeping researchers out."

Qi Xi explained that Tang Feilin and the others should have arrived there by now.

I wonder if they will choose to force their way in; they'll probably form a special squad that can use their skills to enter.

Before Lin Qiu could say anything, he felt a strange flutter in his heart.

It seems to be a warning that something bad is going on over there...

"Xiaoxi, if you can still get in touch with them, please remind Director Tang and the others to be careful around Mount Taixu. My intuition tells me there might be something unclean there."

Lin Qiu pointed to his heart as he spoke, and Qi Xi also became serious.

A warning from the heart? This thing can sense danger remotely?

"I'll contact them later. Oh, by the way, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

"what's up?"

"In the game, didn't you form a strategy team with Yunmo, Zezhi, and Sister Ziyan? Zezhi has already been tricked into eating the fruit by you. It would be best if Sister Ziyan ate it too."

"Once she also possesses magic, you two can go to Mount Taixu together. After all, you've been teammates in the game for so long. Treating Mount Taixu like a dungeon should be much more efficient."

Qi Xi seriously suggested that even if Lin Qiu didn't let Ying Ziyan eat the fruit now, she would probably automatically gain magic power before long.

Instead of waiting, we should speed things up and get things working together sooner rather than later.

This way, it will be easier to defend against the creatures on the other side of the wall when they invade...

231-A staged accident to snatch someone?

"What is it, Yunmo, that you have to come out and tell me?"

Looking at Yunmo, whose expression seemed a little strange, Zezhi couldn't help but ask.

Could it be true, as Ya Ya said, that he felt threatened and planned to kill her to silence her?

Thinking of this, Ze Zhi suddenly felt nervous.

"Lin Qiu, he..."

"If you've never been in love and are innocent, go for it."

"..."

Qin Yunmo glanced at her sideways, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Realizing she had misunderstood, Zezhi scratched her face sheepishly and quickly changed the subject—

"Ahem, seriously, what's up?"

"Has Lin Qiu ever let you try this fruit?"

As Qin Yunmo spoke, she shook the twisted apple she had taken a bite out of, the blush on her ears still lingering.

"Oh, I've eaten this before, but I ate the pear kind, the translucent one!"

Is it poisonous?

"..."

Why do I feel like you're including me in your target list while you're targeting Lin Qiu?

Zezhi's lips twitched, but she still obediently muttered "No," her eyes fixed longingly on the apple.

Lin Qiu said that the first fruit eaten would generate magic power, and once the body adapts, it can automatically generate magic power, and the fruits eaten afterward will also increase magic power.

I'm feeling really low on magic right now!

"Didn't you sense anything was wrong?"

Qin Yunmo was still a little uneasy. Lin Qiu had just been thinking of rebelling, but suddenly he turned around and brought food to them. There must be something wrong with him!

"No way, these just increase magic power and allow you to use skills after eating them, what could be wrong with that..."

Zezhi's tone suddenly faltered as she involuntarily recalled what had just happened in the infirmary.

Is it related to the fact that the magic power within my body suddenly became stagnant and unable to move?

Thinking about it carefully, Lin Qiu doesn't seem surprised at all!

In addition, Teacher Yunge also attacked him at the beginning. Even though she adapted earlier than him, she was still easily captured by Lin Qiu. Could the same thing have happened to her?

Seeing Ze Zhi's thoughtful expression, Qin Yunmo's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough there is a problem!

Lin Qiu actually dared to scheme against me. Should I still be too lenient with him?

"Yunmo, if you're not in a hurry, let me eat this first. I have an idea that I need to test."

"Hmm—okay."

Qin Yunmo responded, and then, under Ze Zhi's twitching gaze, he forcefully broke the apple in half and handed over the unbitten half.

Hey, hey, hey, that's a bit much! Is it really necessary to be so possessive of your food?

Besides Sister Ziyan and Chen Xiao, who else is going to compete with you for him?!

Sawa kept rolling her eyes, but still took the apple and started eating it.

Sooner or later, when I have enough magic, I'll teach you a lesson! Suspicious, huh? Wait till I actually steal it, then we'll see where you're crying!

Sawari smacked her lips angrily as she chewed the fruit, her pretty face puffed up like a chipmunk's.

However, feeling the magic power rapidly recovering within her body, her mood calmed down considerably.

"I'll go try it first. Yunmo, you can follow along and see if there are any problems."

"Okay," Zezhi said, and headed straight for the back door of the classroom.

She peeked inside and, after confirming that Lin Qiu and Qi Xi were talking about something and hadn't noticed her, she quickly gave Qi Xi a meaningful look.

Noticing Ze Zhi lurking suspiciously at the back door, Qi Xi raised an eyebrow, nodded in agreement, and then moved her phone closer to Lin Qiu.

"Look, in the comments on this rival list, the martial arts club has challenged you to a duel."

"Huh? I can take on ten of them by myself!"

With plenty of mana and skills, Lin Qiu boasted arrogantly, seemingly oblivious to Ze Zhi behind him.

Within his perception range, the restless magic behind him was particularly noticeable, almost as if it were right in his face telling him that someone was plotting something!

This aura... it's Sawaori, isn't it?

However, he didn't care at all. He just sat there and let her chop him up, and nothing would happen to him!

A mere lackey dares to defy his superior?

Zezhi, of course, had no idea what he was thinking. After scanning her surroundings and making sure no one was watching her, a small ball of blue flame, like a cat, suddenly rose from her palm.

You just changed your skill, and you still don't believe it!

Accept the sanctions!

"The Soul of the Cat Demon!"

With a soft murmur, Ze Zhi crept forward and slapped Lin Qiu on the back.

Although "Cat Demon Soul" looks like fire, it actually only causes a weak electric shock and paralysis effect when it hits the target, which should be enough to punish this unscrupulous merchant!

Just as the "Cat Demon Soul" was about to strike Lin Qiu, the familiar feeling of her heart clenching swept over her again, as if someone had grabbed it, causing her face to turn deathly pale with pain.

Just like before, the magic power that had just been restored in her body turned into stagnant water again, and the "Cat Demon Soul" disappeared instantly.

"Ouch—it hurts, it hurts, I'm going to die, I'm going to die! What the hell is going on?!"

Even though she was somewhat prepared, the indescribable pain still made Ze Zhi cry out, and she staggered and leaned against Lin Qiu.
