My avatar is becoming the final boss

Chapter 201 Hospital, Eyes, Cooperation (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Li Qingping held the crystal ball in one hand, looked down at the little shark, and silently followed behind Caesar.

The two walked one after the other down the corridor leading out of the sleeping quarters.

He was silent for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the white-haired boy's back.

Recalling the scene in the auditorium, he felt that the boy in front of him seemed to have grown up overnight. He was as dignified as his father, and his demeanor had the air of a superior, but he still showed his childish side to those close to him.

Li Qingping understood what Prince Caesar had gone through during this time: betrayed by everyone, with the only person he cherished bedridden. Anyone would be heartbroken in his shoes.

But he couldn't understand how a person could really change so much in such a short time.
As if it could read his thoughts, the little shark in the crystal ball suddenly spoke.

"Li Qingping, come closer," Yagubaru suddenly whispered.

Li Qingping glanced down at it, then helplessly raised the crystal ball to his ear and asked:
"doing what?"

"So this is the corrupted elementary school student I, Shark, have trained? Do you understand Shark-sensei's power now?"

While giving Caesar, who was walking ahead, a meaningful look with his eyes, Yagubalu looked up and asked Li Qingping.

"A corrupted elementary school student?" Li Qingping raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"Hey, I can tell you don't spend enough time online." The little shark shook its head dismissively. "Get lost, Shark is just wasting your time talking to a cow, a dragon, or a pig."

Li Qingping remained silent for a moment, then quietly lowered his hands and placed the crystal ball back at his waist.

He calmly said, "A couple of days ago, I was browsing through books in the library when I had nothing to do. The Abyss Shark... According to the book, this is the only shark species with the ability to camouflage itself."

Agubaru, however, showed no fear or panic at being exposed; he simply asked calmly:

"so what?"

"Baga Yaru, what is your purpose?" Li Qingping asked, enunciating each word clearly.

"You're the one who's a bastard, your whole family are bastards! Shark's name is clearly Ababaru, okay?"

“Bagayaru, you disguised yourself as a Nobel shark and entered the belly of your natural enemy. It’s impossible that you didn’t have any ulterior motives.”

Agubaru snorted and spit out bubbles. "Whatever my purpose is, you just need to know... without me, Caesar would have died long ago."

“But that doesn’t stop me from thinking you have ulterior motives,” Li Qingping said expressionlessly. “Or rather, your goal can only be achieved by protecting the Third Prince.”

"Ah, I'm just a shark. What could I possibly be after? Do you think I'd be eyeing the treasures and the throne of the Whale Garden?"

Li Qingping remained silent, but his grip on the crystal ball tightened slightly.

Agubaru sighed, "Then I'll be frank. I intend to eat this last legendary whale. But I won't kill indiscriminately. Before I eat the whale, I'll release the inhabitants of the Whale Garden."

As it spoke, it licked its little sharp teeth, "Of course, it would be nice if we could turn the whale garden into a shark garden."

“This is outrageous…” Li Qingping said in a deep voice, “What if there are people left in the miniature garden who haven’t been discovered yet? Are you just going to swallow them up and digest them along with the whales?”

“That’s not something I should be thinking about. I’m just a shark, why should I care about the safety of humans?” Yagubaru said. “Anyway, you need my power right now. Fighting amongst ourselves at this time won’t benefit either of us, human.”

Li Qingping was silent for a moment, then said, "That's true."

"Don't worry, Shark, I know what I'm doing," Yagubaru said.

“The White King’s Scepter has the power to expel people from the whale’s miniature garden,” Li Qingping said. “If Caesar can obtain the White King’s Scepter, he can use it to make the residents leave the miniature garden. At that time, it wouldn’t matter if you swallowed the legendary whale.”

"Here comes the solution."

“But the White King’s Scepter is still with the king,” Li Qingping said, “and the king is still unconscious.”

“It’s alright, we’ll take it one step at a time,” Yagubaru said. “But I’m surprised you would agree to me eating this whale?”

Li Qingping thought for a moment and said, "The Whale Garden is a huge cage. I feel that everyone should go outside and see for themselves, and then they will know how vast this world is."

He paused for a moment: "Those outdated royal systems should have been eliminated long ago."

“That’s dangerous,” Agubaru sighed. “If the royal family heard you say that, you could be beheaded.”

“No one is born to kneel before anyone,” Li Qingping said.

“Indeed, we should kneel before Shark, after all, Shark is not human.” Yagubaru nodded.

Li Qingping ignored it: "Only when they go out into the world will the people here understand the principle of 'all men are created equal.' They have always lived in this environment, so they take everything for granted."

"Then you haven't spent enough time in the outside world. Where is there any 'all men are created equal' out there?"

"Green Tea Shark, do you really have to go against me?"

"You little red dragon, you'll understand these things when you live to Shark's age." Agubaru sneered. "I am a great sage who has lived for a thousand years."

"If all you do every day is eat and sleep, then you'll be nothing but an empty-headed glutton even if you live for another ten thousand years."

"Shut up! You're slandering our Eternal Abyss Shark clan."

"It's okay, they're almost extinct anyway."

Yaguba Lu pressed against the glass, his eyebrows twitching, eyes narrowed, and teeth clenched: "Want to fight? I want to see whether the Red Dragon or the Shark will go extinct first."

"Do you think you can beat me just because you're bigger?" Li Qingping shrugged and asked rhetorically.

As Caesar walked ahead, he removed the crown from his head and turned back to look at them curiously.

He smiled and asked, "What are you two talking about? The atmosphere is so tense."

"It's nothing, Shark is just teaching Li Qingping a lesson." The little shark immediately became docile, its round tail swirling on the surface of the sea, its eyes shining brightly.

Li Qingping, too lazy to argue with it any longer, raised his head and said to Caesar, "Your Highness, let's go back to our cultivation."

"Ah."

The two left the royal court's sleeping quarters and returned to the floating castle on a Christmas sleigh.

Agubaru lay inside the crystal ball, quietly watching them meditate in the courtyard.

Anyway, Li Qingping had promised it that he would take it to sneak into the royal family's treasure vault for a feast in a few days, so it wasn't in a hurry to find something to eat.

If they can defeat the Royal Court team together with the White Raven Brigade on August 1st and allow Caesar to obtain the White King's Scepter, it can then swallow the legendary whale.

With his thoughts settled here, Yagubaru closed his eyelids and synchronized his consciousness with Unit One.

In Beijing, China, in the Guyimai neighborhood, cicadas are chirping incessantly in the trees, and the city feels like a giant steamer.

Gu Wenyu opened his eyes, turned to look at the bright sky outside the window, stared blankly for a while, then jumped off the bed and got dressed. As soon as he opened the door, he bumped into his good sister in the hallway. She seemed to be rushing out of the bathroom as if she was in a hurry to be reborn.

"What are you going to do?" he asked curiously.

"To the hospital... a classmate of mine is injured," Su Zimai said casually, lowering her voice.

She went downstairs without looking back, her figure quickly disappearing from Gu Wenyu's sight.

Gu Wenyu watched her leave before turning his gaze away, knowing in his heart what she was going to do. Lin Zhengquan had been attacked by the Salvation Society last night and was seriously injured.

To protect Su Zimai, Ke Qirui couldn't tell her this information immediately. Instead, she first confirmed Su Zimai's situation and waited until the next morning to ensure that no second group of people would attack Lin Zhengquan before informing her of the news.

Gu Wenyu quickly washed his face with a towel, then went into the room, locked the door, wrapped himself in black restraints, leaped over the French windows, grabbed the restraints attached to the billboard, and swung into the clear sky.

Ten minutes later, Hei Yong followed the taxi Su Zimai had taken and arrived in front of the Lijing Central Hospital.

He hung upside down outside the fifth-floor corridor, silently watching the scene through his mask. He saw Ke Qirui with his arms crossed, leaning against the door of the ward, head bowed, lost in thought.

The ward door was closed, and the black chrysanthemum could not see the scene inside the ward.

So he walked around the ward and saw that the curtains of the wards were drawn, so he had to touch the wall with his restraints.

Penetrating my senses, I saw Lin Zhengquan lying on the hospital bed, his entire body wrapped in white bandages, like a mummy. Upon closer inspection, his right eye socket was empty, which was chilling.

"Did the Salvation Society gouge out one of Lin Zhengquan's eyes?" Hei Yong thought to himself. "I wonder if this eye will become a foreshadowing, such as if someone in the Salvation Society has the ability to control the body of the person whose organ belongs by collecting organs."

After a while, a voice suddenly came from the corridor.

"You're Lin Zhengquan's younger brother, right?" Ke Qirui asked.

The black pupa circled the ward again, returned to the outside of the corridor, and hung upside down under the eaves, silently gazing at the scene in the corridor.

A young man dressed in white civilian clothes nodded: "My name is Lin Yilong, I'm here to see my brother."

“Your brother often mentions you to me,” Ke Qirui said, silently making way for him. “Please come in.”

"So...this person is Mutaki?"

Hei Yong raised an eyebrow. This was the first time he had seen Mu Long's appearance under the mask. He was handsome and gentle, with warm eyes, completely different from his cold and aloof appearance when he wore the mask. It was hard to believe that this young man was the same person as Mu Long.

However, Lin Yilong's expression was somewhat gloomy, and his eyes were shifting.

Lin Yilong walked past Ke Qirui and entered Lin Zhengquan's ward, then silently closed the door.

Ke Qirui took a deep breath, her expression complex beneath her hat brim. A short while later, Su Zimai finally reached the fifth floor via elevator and ran towards the ward.

"Commander, is Lin Zhengquan alright?" she asked.

"You're missing an eye, but the rest of you are fine. You'll recover in a few days." Ke Qirui turned to look at her.

"Missing...missing an eye?"

"Correct."

Su Zimai clenched her fists, lowered her head, and her bangs obscured her eyes.

"Who did this..." she said hoarsely, "I'm going to gouge his eyes out too."

“We haven’t investigated it clearly yet, but it’s most likely someone from that organization…” Ke Qirui paused, “Xiaomai, you’ll come with me to work for the people from Lake Hunter recently. Zhou Jiuya said we can stay with him.”

"why?"

“This is safer,” Ke Qirui said. “We’ll set off after Zhengquan is discharged from the hospital. You should discuss it with your brother beforehand.”

Su Zimai was taken aback, her lips twitched slightly, and she murmured unwillingly:

"Are those people... really that lawless?"

“No… the main problem is that we haven’t figured out their true colors yet.” Ke Qirui shook her head. “Since we know nothing about them, we have no chance to counterattack and can only wait for the right opportunity.”

"What about the hunters at the lake? Don't they even know about the Salvation Society?"

Ke Qirui lowered the brim of her hat and said in a low voice, "I asked Zhou Jiuya, and he said he didn't know anything about the 'Salvation Society'. The other three from Lake Hunting were the same; they had only heard of the name."

"Are we really just going to sit here and wait to die?"

Ke Qirui shook her head: "No, the four people from the Lake Hunt don't know about these things, but the elders of their families might know."

“I just got home,” Su Zimai said. “If I leave now, my brother will be sad.”

“This is also to prevent them from getting involved,” Ke Qirui said. “The Salvation Society’s target is us, not your family.”

“Okay,” Su Zimai said softly.

She had witnessed firsthand how terrifying the monster children of the Salvation Society were, so she didn't want Gu Qiye to get involved. Even Lan Hu would probably be helpless against that figure riding the somersault cloud and the child holding the game console.

"By the way, the people of Lake Hunter will be going to war with the Nian Beast soon," Ke Qirui suddenly said.

"Nian Beast?"

“Yes, that’s the most powerful demon in China.” Ke Qirui nodded. “By staying by Zhou Jiuya’s side, we can observe the fighting style of the Lake Hunters and learn some experience from them.”

As she spoke, she raised her hand and touched Su Zimai's head: "Don't worry, everything will be alright."

Su Zimai remained silent for a long time before nodding.

Hei Yong watched this scene quietly. After a moment, Lin Yilong walked out of the ward. He was expressionless and walked straight ahead without saying a word.

"Hmm, it's time to have a talk with Brother Mulong." Heiyong stared at Mulong's profile and thought, "He's definitely a good card to play. To become a near-disaster-level ability user in such a short time, he must have talent. His future is promising."

"Not only that, but most importantly, his abilities are suited for surprise attacks. When paired with me, it's a perfect match. As long as he uses his domain to make the people of Rainbow Wing lose their five senses in an instant, and I use the restraint belt to grab that person and suppress his superpower, then even the strongest superpowered person will have no choice but to surrender."

Thinking of this, Black Chrysalis scratched his chin. "If I can cooperate with him... I can first plan with him how to attack Blue Arc, then secretly sell him out, and finally save his life, do him a favor, and transfer his hatred to the Salvation Society through his brother."

Following behind Lin Yilong, Hei Yong left the hospital without making a sound. When passing through a deep alley, he deliberately deactivated his transparent form and released his aura.

Lin Yilong suddenly stopped in his tracks, and a cold voice rang out in the empty alley.

“Come out…” he said. “I know you’ve been looking for me.”
