Chapter 49 (2/2)

ThornyRose looked back and saw Ye Cang pulling FrozenCloud over about to say something and asked: “What will you guys be doing?”

“We’ll resupply, then go to the market and look around and see if there’s anything to buy while gathering intelligence and whatnot.” Ye Cang shrugged and said. ThornyRose didn’t reply. She glanced at the four of them before leaving with FrozenBlood and GreenDew.

“Bro, here’s the gold from earlier.” Zhang ZhengXiong took out the 5 gold he received from the quest. Lin Le also handed his over. “Brother Lil’White, here’s mine.”

FrozenCloud hesitated, but still took out her gold and weakly handed it over. “Team leader, here’s my share.”

“Lil’Dino, I’ll help you hold onto it. A portion will go towards your remodelling funds, the rest will go to our shared party funds. Oh right, how is your arithmetic?” Ye Cang thought of something and asked.

Hearing him call her Lil’Dino she sighed in her heart and thought: “Can you not bring up the those remodelling funds. I don’t need it! Also! What arithmetic!? Are you guys primary school kids!? Still learning arithmetic!?” She sighed and replied: “Pretty good.”

“How good is pretty good? Lele can add or subtract up to two digits. A’Xiong can multiply or divide up to two digits. I’m the best and can solve for unknown numbers as long as it doesn’t pass two digits, be it addition, subtraction, multiplication or division!” Ye Cang said looking proud.

FrozenCloud’s legs went soft. Her tonfas fell to the ground. They were college students like herself. She looked at their faces and panicked. How should she reply!? If she said she knew calculus and algebra, they probably wouldn’t understand. Wait! What do primary school students think is the most amazing? She seriously thought it over. She raised her eyebrows and intended to joke around with them. “I know long division…”

The three of them were so startled, they retreated a few steps. Lin Le was stunned and started to worship her.

Zhang ZhengXiong couldn’t believe his ears. “It’s actually long division…”

Ye Cang sighed. He looked disappointed and unwillingly said: “It’s actually long division, more amazing than even solving unknown numbers. I’ve lost…”

“…” FrozenCloud saw the three people’s reactions. She raised her head and looked at the night sky, completely confused. Although they were all university student, how did they manage to enroll in college? Did they threaten the proctor?

“Right, what is long division? When I was small, everyone would say long division was so hard.” Zhang ZhengXiong’s words made FrozenCloud who was bending down to pick up her tonfas fall over.

“It’s a kind of magic. Arithmetic magic. Really scary. I once wanted to try it but my skill wasn’t enough and I was almost devoured. It felt like my head would split apart.” Lin Le pouted.

“Lele is correct. It’s a dangerous arithmetic magic. If your arithmetic skill isn’t enough, it will kill you.” Ye Cang crossed his arms and calmly nodded.

FrozenCloud stayed silent. If she kept talking to them, she would go mad. She slowly got up.

Ye Cang took out the fine black iron tonfa he got earlier. “Oh right, this is for you. We all got a piece of equipment. Since there are benefits, how could we leave you out. Hurry and equip it.”

“That’s the extra item my bro squeezed out of that old guy.” Zhang ZhengXiong smiled.

FrozenCloud took the tonfas, and looked at it’s attributes. It was way better than hers, it even came with an important defensive skill. She removed the tonfa on her right hand and replaced it with the Fine Black Iron Protector. These the guys, besides being a bit stupid… correction, extremely stupid, were actually three really good people. “Thanks, team leader.”

At this time, ThornyRose’s message arrived: “That group’s activity, if something happens report to me or your sister.”

FrozenBlood sighed. With a complicated expression, she looked to the three people in front of her who were chatting and laughing. “It’s a pity that I’m a spy” she thought as she jogged to catch up to them. Zhang ZhengXiong wrapped an arm around her shoulder and patted her back. “If there’s anything you want, just tell my bro. We’re all brother so no need to be polite!”

“Mm!” FrozenCloud replied, her heart a mess. She was becoming too immersed in her role.

If Thornyrose or FrozenBlood knew of her heart’s troubles, they would definitely be speechless. It was like their little sister was becoming a gangster. What’s so good about those 3 brain-dead guys.
