Crowning the SSS Guide

Chapter 66 Heart knot
A high-hanging A-grade shining stone acts as the sun in the cave. The sunlight falls on the bamboo leaves in the lush bamboo forest. The fragmented sunlight scatters and falls on the rocking chair made of bamboo beside the bamboo forest.

Fu Guang was rocking lazily in the rocking chair, the sound of gurgling stream beside her ears. She reached out and took an exquisite-looking pastry from the table and chair beside her.

"Sister Fu Guang." The little girl with black hair and black eyes leaned close to the side of Fu Guang who was reading a paper book. Her eyes were as clear as obsidian and she stared at the blonde girl without blinking.

Fu Guang raised his hand and pushed the little girl's fair face away with a book. "What are you doing?" she said lazily.

The cave was very quiet, with only Fu Guang and Wen Li living there.

"I want to study in the academy." The little girl blushed, her shoulders tightened, and she said a little embarrassedly.

Fu Guang threw the pastry into his mouth. The pastry was very delicious and the taste was quite good.

She slowly chewed and swallowed the pastry in her mouth, but her eyes never left Wen Li.

A small stream of water appeared, washing away the pastry crumbs that had just stained his fingertips. Fu Guang remained silent for a long moment, simply staring at Wen Li. The little girl's demeanor began to change.

The light in the little girl's black eyes flickered. As Fu Guang's silence grew longer and longer, Wen Li pursed her lips. Her lips and complexion turned a little pale, tiny beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and she slowly lowered her head.

Fu Guang couldn't help but sigh, she was still a child, and reached out to touch the little girl's soft head.

The little girl had been tortured for many years, which had resulted in her cowardice and inferiority, but she was brave by nature. These two completely different characteristics were stuck together in her, making her the Wen Li of today.

Wen Li sniffed, tears welling up in her eyes. She turned her head and reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes, but the more she wiped, the more they came, as if they could never be wiped away.

Crystal clear tears slid down her face, hitting her collar and wetting her clothes.

"Don't be anxious, take your time." He gently held her head over and wiped away the tears bit by bit.

Fu Guang understood Wen Li's thoughts. Past experiences made the young girl realize that everything has a price.

She was eager to show her role and value, as if this way she would no longer be abandoned and would be firmly chosen by someone, and the person chosen by the little girl seemed to be her.

Fu Guang lowered his eyebrows and smiled helplessly.

All the little girl's connections with the world were severed the moment she left the Emerald Planet. It seemed that there was no place for her in this world anymore. She felt confused and uneasy.

And in times of crisis, she extended a helping hand to Wen Li and became the person who poured all her emotions into him.

She poured everything into her and gave her 100% trust and dependence.

The safe yet unfamiliar White Tower and the seemingly dangerous Union University have people she is familiar with.

The little girl made the decision easily. Perhaps it was the desire to repay a favor and the uneasiness of the strange world that prompted her to come to her.

Fu Guang softened his voice and tucked the little girl's black hair behind her ear, "Wen Li, you are only fourteen years old, don't be impatient."

"You should now learn knowledge, combat skills, and how to survive in this dangerous world."

Wen Li looked at Fu Guang in a daze, slowly squatted down, and placed her head in the slightly cool palm of her benefactor, which made her feel a moment of peace.

The girl in front of her listened to her obediently, and Fu Guang felt that her cold and hard heart could not help but soften. So she would temporarily act as Wen Li's elder.

"Everything that happened yesterday has become who I am today."

"You can't change the past. Just look at the present moment. What do you want to do?"

Wen Li shook her head slowly, a confused look in her black eyes. She didn't know.

What is a fourteen-year-old girl, or a fourteen-year-old guide, supposed to do?

She remembered that when she first arrived at the White Tower, she saw some girls who were about her age, but she was a little scared.

The guides, who she had only observed from afar, were noble, elegant, and didn't seem easy to get along with. There seemed to be a natural transparent barrier between them and her.

They were so peaceful and happy. She didn't fit in with them.

Wen Li's heart trembled as she squeezed her eyes shut, a wave of inexplicable thoughts flooding her mind. She struggled to fall asleep each night, as the moment she closed her eyes, the suffering of the past seemed to overwhelm her once more. Even when she did fall asleep, she woke from her dreams countless times, gazing upon the outside world. Everything she had endured flooded over her nose and mouth like water, drowning her breath and her cries.

It seemed as if all he could do was watch helplessly as his limbs were stretched tight by invisible lines, and then covered with a gorgeous coat, hiding all the transparent threads.

She couldn't speak or move, like a puppet without any emotions, and she had no control over her every move.

She was afraid of this extremely strange world, and she didn't know where it would open its bloody mouth and swallow her.

In fourteen years, she had never been exposed to the outside world. Like a captive canary, everything she saw and thought was trapped in an invisible cage.

She didn't know the rules of the outside world and was afraid that if she did something wrong, she would be torn to pieces.

Fu Guang felt Wen Li's fear and despair, and couldn't help but pause for a moment. It seemed that to the little girl, the past had become an inseparable shadow, becoming more and more prosperous as she grew up.

She found that normal life made it increasingly difficult for her to accept her past.

Fu Guang swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. The elders in Baita must have discovered the girl's heart knot, so they approved of Wen Li's reckless behavior.

Union University is a tiger's den. It is easy to come here, but difficult to leave. Moreover, for the guides, the danger here is always hidden in the dark.

Fu Guang stroked the little girl's hair. It was easy and difficult to deal with the little girl's emotional knot. Just keep her busy and arrange more confrontational activities.

As you see yourself growing stronger, your confidence will be rebuilt.

Then, take your time.

However, the D-level guide was a bit troublesome. With her current strength, it was difficult for her to fight one-on-one with the C-level bots in the internal training ground of the Union University.

In the training ground, endurance is not considered, only short-term bursts are considered, with a limit of ten minutes. The side that is hit more loses.

The lowest level of human-machine in the Union University is D-level.

"Do you want to become stronger?" Fu Guang didn't plan to solve the problem from a psychological perspective first. It wouldn't be too late to solve the spiritual aspect after becoming stronger.

She asked the little girl.

"I think so!" Wen Li opened his eyes wide and answered Fu Guang's question very quickly.

"Are you not afraid of any difficulties?" Fu Guang continued to ask. She wanted to hear the little girl's answer, and she also wanted Wen Li to hear her answer.

"As long as I can become stronger, I'm not afraid of anything!" Wen Li straightened his back, his eyes became bright, and he looked at Fu Guang with burning eyes. His energy and spirit instantly increased a hundredfold, no longer as weak as before.

"Okay, don't regret it." Fu Guang saw Wen Li's condition and didn't intend to show mercy. He prepared three plans for her first. It was up to the girl to choose which one she could complete.

Fu Guang flipped through his light brain, thinking back to the plan he had arranged for himself when he first started practicing, and after some adjustments, he came up with a new schedule.

"First, set a small goal and take off the regulator." Fu Guang pointed at Wen Li's purple bracelet.

"it is good!"

The Alliance University is an S-class planet. Wen Li cannot walk freely on this planet without external help. If he can remove the regulator, his strength will definitely be greatly improved.

"Make a schedule for yourself first. I'll send you mine. Follow it for the rest of the time. If you don't understand, ask me."

Wen Li nodded obediently, then turned on her computer. Her high ponytail spread out like a blooming flower because she lowered her head.

The fingertips on the screen jumped up and down, typing seriously on the computer.

Fu Guang rested his head on his hands, and the warm sunlight fell on his hair.

A faint breeze blew across the pages of the book, turning them up slightly, then reluctantly putting them back. Not far away, bamboo leaves swayed softly, rustling gently.
