Mischievous Lolita in the Doll

Mir took his number; it was a "six".

The numbers here correspond to the order in which the matches started, and Mil's match was the sixth.

"Wait, when does the match start?" For the first time, Mir was concerned about the match.

"Tomorrow."

It's tomorrow! No wonder there are so many people on the streets today; it seems there are a lot of people from out of town.

However, Xia Ye seemed to be a novice ability user, so why did she also sign up for this competition? Out of concern, Mir asked, "Are you ready? How much magic have you learned?"

"Not many." Xia Ye's voice sounded disappointed: "It was Teacher Xiao Lu who suggested that I participate. She said that the best way to improve one's abilities is through real-world practice, and such opportunities to compete are rare."

“That guy just wants to take a vacation during this time,” Mill said, pursing his lips as he exposed someone’s intentions.

"By the way, that child...where does she live?" Xia Ye hesitated for a moment before finally asking.

Although she adored the adorable child, Eileen's authority was not to be underestimated; after all, what good student isn't afraid of the principal?

But that child is so cute. If you could, who wouldn't want to get close to her?

"Why are you asking this?" Mil became somewhat wary.

"No...it's nothing."

Xia Ye felt that what she said was too abrupt, after all, the child was not related to her.

"Then I'll head back now." With that, Xia Ye left Mir's dormitory without a second thought.

Seeing that Xia Ye had finally left, Mir first closed the doors and windows properly, then called out to the tattoo on his hand:

"Hey, stop playing dead! Why are you ignoring me again? What's so strange about that priest?"

This time, the mermaid didn't ignore him: "He has a familiar aura... but I'm not sure."

"An old acquaintance of yours?"

"Maybe, but it's been so long since I've felt that way, I don't know if it's just my imagination."

“Then it must not be an illusion,” Mil said confidently. “Whenever this line appears in a novel or on television, it must not be an illusion.”

"..." Miss Mermaid didn't quite understand the meaning of those words.

"By the way, are you very old?" Mil asked casually out of the blue.

"Yes, I've forgotten my age." The mermaid didn't think there was anything wrong with revealing her age.

"Wow, so you're an old lady now."

Mermaid: "..."

After that, no matter how much Mir tried to talk to the mermaid, she ignored him. It seems that no woman, no matter what kind of woman, wants to hear others say that she is old.

I clearly had so many questions to ask her; I should have known better than to be so reckless.

Women are indeed strange.

Mil sighed inwardly again, then stretched and got up to go out. He needed to prepare for tomorrow's competition; he was determined to win the prize money.

Chapter 162 You've worked hard

Early morning, inside the police station office.

Chief Elsa continued to calmly sip her tea. In the past two days, the frequent entry and exit of outsiders into Ur City had increased the workload of the police officers in maintaining order. Fortunately, Elsa had learned the essence of a superior – to delegate everything to her subordinates.

So these past few days she only needed to occasionally look at documents and that was it; she spent her free time watching TV and reading novels.

Watching her subordinates bustling around, Elsa couldn't help but wonder if she had been too idle these past few days and should find something to do.

She stopped a male police officer who was looking through files and asked, "Have there been any tricky cases these past few days?"

"Chief, well..." The male police officer seemed a little hesitant, but still answered her: "There aren't many tricky ones, but there are quite a few bizarre cases."

"A bizarre case?" Elsa waved her hand, signaling the male police officer to continue. After five hundred years as a police officer, what bizarre cases hadn't she encountered?

The male police officer glanced at the documents in his hand and said, "The breeding chickens at the chicken shop on Locke Street have raped all the fish at the fish shop next door."

Elsa: "???"

"One of the carriages on the Phase Train has been stolen."

Elsa: "!!!!"

"A group of people were bragging and the situation got out of control... It wasn't until we dispatched ten police officers that we were able to save Grandpa Li's cow."

Elsa: "..."

What are all these things?

She patted the male police officer on the shoulder: "You've worked hard."

The male police officer clearly hadn't expected the chief to be so understanding, and looked at her with a touched expression.

“I used to have it just like you…” Elsa tilted her head back and struck a pose like a life mentor.

The male police officer sat upright and serious, awaiting Elsa's next words.

Elsa paused, then continued, "It wasn't until I was promoted to director that I realized how fucking satisfying it is to watch you guys work so hard!"

Male police officer: ??? Are you crazy?!

"Something terrible has happened! Chief!!" A policewoman rushed over in a panic.

"What's wrong? Don't panic." Elsa calmly poured herself a glass of water and drank it.

The policewoman's hand, which was already outstretched to catch the water, froze in mid-air, unsure whether to extend it or retract it, leaving her extremely embarrassed.

Elsa noticed the awkward situation and quickly spat the water she hadn't swallowed back into the cup and handed it to her.

Male policeman: "..."

Unexpectedly, the policewoman didn't mind at all and drank the secondhand water in one gulp with a blush on her face.

Male policeman: "???"

Now it was Elsa's turn to feel a little awkward. She coughed twice and then asked, "What happened?"

Angela has disappeared!

"What?" Elsa's expression changed drastically.

--------

The American Academy is now bustling with people, and even the hot weather hasn't dampened the excitement.

Today is the annual exchange competition of the American Academy of High Schools, and many teachers and students from other schools gather here to participate in or watch the competition.

However, this was not the reason for the excitement of these young men and women. The real reason was that they wanted to see if there were any handsome men and beautiful women from other schools who suited their tastes. Maybe they could take this opportunity to end their single status. Several young men and women signed up for this activity for this reason.

However, some people have a simpler purpose, like Mil, who went straight for the prize money.

This competition is a bit different from the previous ones. It is said that after the competition, the top few can follow the team leaders as the "Rainbow Wing Kingdom Exploration Team" to explore the newly appeared ruins in Ur City.

This ruin has been explored once before, but not very deeply. Lux suggested evacuation after realizing that things might be beyond their control, which only proves that this ruin is not simple.

Although they had a preliminary understanding of how extraordinary this ruin was, the students were not afraid. There are very few new A-level ability users in modern times because many parts of the world are too peaceful now, so peaceful that many young people don't even fight.

They need dangerous experiences, even if they are very dangerous, even if they might lose their lives.

Eileen, the only one who had roughly deciphered the inscriptions on the murals in the ruins, seemed to tacitly approve of such things. Stantin's recent small actions once again made this ancient giant feel extremely threatened. She always felt that some old monsters might be up to something big recently.

Many insiders couldn't understand Eileen's attitude. They couldn't comprehend why, when it came to matters involving "ancient ruins," Eileen would allow these young people to explore, and even allow people from other countries to lead the exploration.

"So, Dean, what are you thinking?" Wang Lans asked helplessly as he poured himself a cup of coffee.

"What do you mean?" Eileen calmly looked at the news crystal in her hand.

"That place already involves the legendary area, right? Why would they allow those young people to go there? They might all be wiped out!" Wang Lans seemed a little agitated.

Eileen calmly waved her hand, grasping the red bead around her neck: "How long has it existed in Ur City... and we haven't even noticed?"

"That's not what I'm asking!" Wang Lans slammed his fist on the table. "What if something happens to them... it's like trying to challenge a level that's supposed to be a Demon King before you've even leveled up!"

“Old Wang!” Eileen crossed her arms and said solemnly, “The world has been too peaceful for too long, so peaceful that it’s frightening.”

“We can’t be sure if they will come back in the future. We can’t be responsible for the lives of young people then, but we can’t be responsible for the lives of everyone then.” Eileen’s expression was terrifying.

"What about that kid, Mir?" Wang Lans's expression was one of utter disbelief, not even bothering to mind Eileen calling him "Old Wang." "That's your son! With his strength, he should definitely be ranked among the top, right?"

Eileen's face darkened, and she tightly gripped the blood droplet on her chest: "I'd rather risk my young life than let anything happen to him."

“What’s more…” Eileen looked at the fragmented mural in the recording crystal. It was still impossible to see the whole thing, but some patterns could be vaguely made out. “This time, the ruins…” She didn’t finish her sentence.

Wang Lans slumped weakly in his chair, looking out the window at the cheerful young people. He knew he couldn't change the dean's mind, and he also knew that what the dean said made sense.

"Don't worry, with so many A-level people like us leading the team, they'll be fine," Eileen reassured her deputy.

Wang Lans smiled helplessly, which looked rather unpleasant against his villainous face.

Dean, you've just set a really big goal!

Chapter 163 The First Match... is About to Begin

Xia Ye stood in the lounge of the temporary competition stage on the playground, looking at the sea of ​​people below with surprise and excitement. Although she had witnessed the power of magic before, she did not expect that magic was so powerful that it could complete such a huge project overnight, even if it was temporary.

On the competition stage in the center of the playground, Wang Lans took out a manuscript and began his speech: "Now I will give a ten-page speech..."

Then he received a huge pile of plastic bottles and rotten eggs generously provided by the audience.

But this guy completely ignored the audience's dissatisfaction and used magic to create a shield to isolate himself so he could continue his long and tedious speech.

Xia Ye watched this scene speechlessly. It seemed that no matter where it was, a principal's long speech was always indispensable.

She glanced back at the people in the lounge. Although only she, Ula, Carlo, and Mir were participating in the competition, almost everyone in the class had come to cheer them on. However, Mir, the participant, was absent for some unknown reason.

Xia Ye frowned and asked, "Where is that guy?"

"I don't know," Carlo replied to Xia Ye while playing Tetris on his game console. "I haven't seen that guy since early this morning, and I don't know what he's up to."

Could that guy have backed out? Xia Ye thought about this possibility carefully and found it to be quite likely.

However, Xia Ye was no longer in the mood to think about what Mir was doing. She was actually very nervous, after all, she was about to participate in the competition under the watchful eyes of teachers and students from various schools. She, who had never liked attracting attention, was now extremely flustered.

Besides that, she was also at a loss about the upcoming match. This match was simply a fight, but for Xia Ye, fighting was not an easy thing. Although she had killed many people, could pure killing be the same as sparring? Putting aside the fact that her opponent, as a native of this world, would definitely be more skilled in using magic and abilities than her, she felt that this one-on-one fight was ridiculous. What if the two of them got into a fight and became enemies?
