Mischievous Lolita in the Doll

"Very good, it seems you all have no objections. Now, let's discuss the mission..."

"Don't ignore me, you bastard!"

No one present paid any attention to his commotion; if you took this guy seriously, you'd lose.

Besides Mir, Carlo also seemed somewhat dissatisfied with the arrangements, and he had begun to look at Mir with a horrified gaze.

Being grouped with this guy is definitely not a good thing.

"The tasks we've chosen for you this time are somewhat dangerous. The first is to explore ancient ruins, and the second is to clear out some magical frogs that have been attracted by magic outside the city of Ur..."

“I choose to explore the ruins,” Mir interrupted her.

Teacher Xiaolu glared at him with displeasure.

"These tasks were assigned in advance. The first group will explore the ancient ruins because they are more suitable, while you, the second group, will clear out the frogs."

The group assignments were carefully considered by her and Lux. First of all, it wasn't just a few of them who would be exploring the ancient ruins. The first group assignments were also very reasonable: one DPS and tank (Ula), one support (Sak), and one half support and half DPS (Viles).

Ancient ruins may also harbor undead or curses. In such cases, Sark's "Holy Light" is essential. With Lux watching over them, there shouldn't be any danger.

The second group was formed by separating people who weren't needed for exploring ancient ruins: one for damage and tanking (Mir), one for control and some damage (Carlo), and one for shouting "666" (Xia Ye).

Reasonable.

As for why Xiao Lu, a mysterious ability user, was chosen to lead them in monster hunting instead of the first group exploring ruins, it was because of Xia Ye. It was best not to let Xia Ye explore ancient ruins for her first practical training, as she might encounter the unknown and gain nothing, leaving her with some psychological trauma. So it was better to let her fight monsters, while Xiao Lu would observe her battles and provide some guidance.

Anyway, the magic inside Ur City has been mostly cleared out. Those attracted by such a small amount of magic are mostly low-level monsters and pose no danger. Moreover, the quest list specifies that frogs need to be cleared out, so they can ignore anything else they encounter. This kind of task is perfect for training newcomers.

"Since everyone agrees, let's make this decision amicably."

"What do you mean everyone has no objections?" Mil walked over, looked up at the short-haired beauty who was slightly taller than him, and said, "Do you think I'm not human?"

"Are you even human?" Xiao Lu asked, looking at him skeptically.

Not only Xiaolu, but everyone else looked at him with questioning eyes. If we were to say who among them was the least human, the first would definitely be Ula, the second would be Carlo, but after taking off his clothes, the first would definitely be Mir.

"Listen to this, what kind of talk is this? Do you think I'm not human? Aren't dolls human too? Let me tell you..."

Xiao Lu pinched Mir's mouth shut with one hand to stop him from saying anything more. She knew that Mir was about to give her a logical rap (censored). This kid wasn't very smart, but he could make black into white. She remembered once when their academy had an exchange competition with other academies, this kid managed to make his opponent lose all purpose in life by talking him out. He ruined a perfectly good competition between ability users. Eileen was very angry that time, and to punish him, she made a lot of delicious food for him.

Wait, something seems off?

Xiao Lu felt that she had grasped something important.

It seems the dean and the dean of the other college don't have a very good relationship. Indeed, like mother, like son.

"In short, it's no use if you have any opinions. The matter is settled. We'll set off first thing tomorrow morning. Today is just to inform you. Xia Ye doesn't have any classes today."

"So how much money will we make this time?" Mill asked again, getting straight to the point.

"Not counting the money handed over to the academy, each person would receive about two thousand, and the first group would receive about the same."

"Tsk, only this much?" Mill expressed his dissatisfaction with a contemptuous expression.

"Money is just an external thing..." Xiao Lu was about to launch into a long lecture.

“Money is what’s important,” Mill interrupted her directly, uttering a vulgar remark. “Some rich person once said, ‘What are you going to do with games if you don’t have money?’ These days, even playing games costs a lot of money, and you’re telling me that money is just an external thing?”

Chapter 74 You, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, want to refuse to be picked up?

When the sun rose the next day, everyone's mood was different. For example, Mill wasn't in a good mood. He threw his alarm clock down from the second floor, making a strange noise.

"Clang—Pfft!!!"

I don't know why throwing an alarm clock would make that sound.

Mir turned over and continued to sleep, but just like on another day, someone didn't want him to continue sleeping like that.

"Ding-dong-ding-dong-"

The doorbell rang, still more effective than an alarm clock. Mil walked over to open the door wearing only his underwear. As he passed the shoe rack, he glanced at it. He had already tidied up the children's shoes and put them in the closet. Anyway, those shoes didn't have any strange smells except for their fragrance.

As expected, Xia Ye was standing outside when the door was opened. Xia Ye frowned when she saw his attire, then turned her head away.

"Do you even know what time it is? You're still sleeping."

"I don't know." He had already thrown the alarm clock down from the second floor.

"It's already 7:30. Aren't we supposed to be going to the outskirts of the city for practical training today?"

Upon hearing this, Mir noticed that Xia Ye was holding a white suitcase.

"Why are you bringing a suitcase? Are you going on vacation?"

"There are some clothes and other things inside."

Mir rolled his eyes, completely unable to understand what these girls were thinking.

"We'll only stay there for two days at most before coming back."

However, Xia Ye did not put the suitcase back.

Aren't you going to change your clothes?

Mill looked down at himself; he was only wearing a pair of blue shorts.

"Go and call Carlo first, I'll get dressed and come over."

Mil didn't really have anything prepared. He was just going to fight a monster, so there wasn't much to bring. After changing his clothes, he took out his wallet and checked his possessions. He only had five Mira left, which was given to him by Eileen one day to appease his loli body.

Then there's that strange key. Because of his procrastination, he kept forgetting to ask Eileen what it was. It had no magic power, yet it could create such an effect. This was the first time Mir had ever seen something like it.

After putting the black key into his wallet, Mil looked at a long, narrow package containing his weapon, a sword.

After hoisting the package onto his shoulder, he opened the door and went outside. Carlo had already been called out by Xia Ye and was leaning on the railing, yawning.

Carlo didn't bring much with him; he only carried a small package containing a chain that could extend his abilities—a magical item.

"Don't you brush your teeth?" Xia Ye frowned as she looked at them.

"That's true."

The two only remembered to brush their teeth after Xia Ye reminded them. After all, they were boys, and their living habits were more relaxed. Not brushing their teeth once wouldn't cause their teeth to get bad. But it was different in front of girls. No matter if the woman was their type or not, they couldn't show her their bad side.

“I don’t want to brush, don’t worry, I’m very clean!” Mill smiled, revealing six teeth that seemed to reflect a gleam in the sunlight.

"Go brush your teeth right now!"

Mir was forced back to brush his teeth by the other two, and had no choice but to detach his head to brush his teeth.

By the time they hurriedly finished getting everything done and arrived at the agreed-upon place—the college gate—it was already a little past 8:30.

"So slow!" Ms. Lu, who had been waiting at the door for a while, glared at them angrily, her hands on her hips. "Don't you have any sense of time?!"

Hearing her complaints, the other two looked at Mil, who was whistling, with a mournful expression. It was all because this guy insisted on having breakfast before leaving. When they disagreed, he even shamefully lay down on the ground and threw a tantrum in public. Helpless, they had no choice but to go and have breakfast with him.

"How are we going to get there? Are we just going to walk?" Xia Ye asked, voicing his question.

“We could have taken the train,” Xiaolu said, spreading her hands and shaking her head, “but because of your lateness, we have to find another way.”

Upon hearing this, Carlo and Xia Ye glared at Mir, who simply looked at them innocently. Getting up early to eat was a matter of course, and no one could stop him from eating.

“Let’s just run there, it’s not that far anyway.” With that, Mir began stretching his legs to prepare for the exercise to come.

Carlo quickly stopped him, saying, "Brother, it's over a hundred kilometers from here to the outside of the city. How long would it take us to get there if we ran?"

He automatically ignored their physical limitations. If they consumed their magic power evenly, running more than ten kilometers wouldn't be impossible. However, they could only jog evenly, and by the time they arrived, they would probably be out of mana to fight monsters. Only Mil could do that.

Xiao Lu could definitely get through this by some means, but it wouldn't make a difference if she got there herself.

"Let's find a car then. It might cost a lot, but it's better than walking." With that, Xiao Lu made a phone call and hailed a car.

The car arrived shortly afterward; it was a standard taxi. Although it might be a bit crowded for a few people to squeeze in, it was just right for four.

Not only that, but Mir also found the driver to be somewhat familiar. Not only him, but Xia Ye and Carlo also felt that the driver looked somewhat familiar.

"Holy crap! Isn't that the driver we ripped off on the tip?" Mill shouted out the words.

Upon hearing this, the driver turned his gaze toward them. At first, he didn't recognize who Mir was, since Mir had been dressed as a woman back then, which was quite different from the carefree young man he was now. However, when the driver saw Xia Ye, he finally recognized who Mir was. Even though the difference between Mir back then and Mir now was significant, he was still within the realm of recognizing him. It was impossible for him to simply change his face after dressing as a woman.

What's more, back then, Mil had squeezed his car door so hard it was deformed. The car was lent to them by the station, and any damage would be deducted from their wages. That time, half a month's wages were deducted to repair the car door, and he didn't dare go back to ask Mil to pay for it. Mil had left a deep impression on him at the time, so he remembered Mil's face.

The driver's expression immediately changed, and he was about to drift away. However, Mil guessed his intention. Just as he made a perfect 180-degree turn and started to accelerate, Mil had already caught up with him using his ability and lifted the driver and the car high into the air.

"Well, you, a driver with thick eyebrows and big eyes, are actually trying to refuse passengers?"

Chapter Seventy-Five: Mir's Amazing Popularity

Outside Ur City, there are basically no places to live. Even though the city guards regularly drive away the monsters that approach Ur City, not many people dare to build houses and live here. Even people with strength can't guarantee that a strange monster won't suddenly jump over while they are sleeping. Even if it can't harm them, who wouldn't be angry if they were woken up while they were sleeping?

So you can't see a single house outside the city walls; even if you do, they're just temporary little wooden huts or the like.

Therefore, the environment here is very close to nature, and the air is very fresh.

After about an hour, Mil and his group arrived at the place. Thanks to Mil's bargaining (physical), they managed to pay an extremely low fare, provided that we ignore the few notes that Xiaolu had made in the notebook she was about to hand to Eileen, and that the taxi driver had blocked Xiaolu's communication beacon.

Although no one has built houses outside Ur, there are quite a few inns inside the city, catering to adventurers, and correspondingly, the prices here are much higher.

"So this is the time to show off Lord Mir's amazing popularity!" Mir said proudly, patting his hard chest.

The other three looked at him with strange eyes. This guy wasn't exactly unpopular, but his popularity was hardly a positive influence. Back in Locke Street, everyone who knew him looked at him like he was a ghost.

"Hey, hey, hey, what kind of looks are those? Lord Mil is so popular, it's not surprising that he knows a couple of innkeepers, is it?"

"You actually call yourself 'Lord Mil,' and are you sure you didn't leave a deep impression on the innkeeper by robbing him?" Carlo retorted professionally.

"Shut up! Shin-ba-ji, just follow me. It's so frustrating to have a terrible teammate. You even complain about being helped."

"Who is the new 8-something?! Have you even forgotten my name? And how dare you call me a terrible teammate? How many times have you let me down by now?"

Getting back to the point, although the group was very skeptical that Mil knew any innkeepers here, they still followed him to a rather large-looking inn.

This hotel is indeed quite large, and it doesn't look cheap at all. The environment and decorations inside completely outshine the ordinary hotels around it. There's even a cold-looking young man dressed as a bartender wiping glasses on the platform. Judging from his cold demeanor, he should be a member of the snake clan.

Mill walked up to the man who looked like a bartender and greeted him.

"Hey waiter, I'm here again. Call your boss over."

Upon hearing this, the bartender looked up, stared at Mil for a couple of seconds, and then leaned back slightly.

"I've already told you my name isn't Xiao Er, why can't you remember?"

It seems that Mir has left a deep impression on the young man in front of him, who has already recognized him.
