498 I Heard That You Are Looking for a Guardian? (1/2)

Lin Xin used to maintain a good sleeping pattern over the past one year.

She would usually sleep before 11 p.m and wake up before 6.30 a.m as Lin Huang would prepare breakfast at about 7 a.m.

She was still practicing her good habits after entering the Martial Hunter College. As usual, she would still wake up at about 6.30 a.m and go to the library after having her breakfast. She would read some books until about 8.30 a.m and attend her classes after that. If she had no classes in the morning, she would stay in the library until lunch. After having lunch, she would take a nap and go to class. She would complete her homework at night. If she was free, she would go for some actual combat training with her classmates or play the Gun Master.

In fact, aside from Lin Xin, most of the students from the Martial Hunter College had healthy habits and their time was well managed.

As they entered the Mist Forest, since the mist was formed at night, most of them slept at about 9 p.m.

Five of them took turns to watch over the night. Since Lin Xin and Ai Li were girls, both of them were assigned to keep watch over the tent during the first and the last round to avoid having to get up in the middle of the night. Lin Xin would watch over the tent from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m. whereas Ai Li would do so from 5 a.m. to 7 a.m.

To increase their hunting efficiency, they had decided to depart at 7.30 a.m. The reason behind this was because the mist in the forest would completely clear away at about 7 a.m.

Lin Xin woke up before 6.30 a.m. Despite being on duty on the first night until 11 p.m, she would still make sure that she had seven hours of sleep and that was sufficient for her.

She took a look at the time. It was 6.08 a.m. Lin Xin wanted to continue sleeping, but she found out that she could no longer fall asleep.

Lying in the sleeping bag, she opened the Heart Network. She then realized that she had no access to it. She felt that it was strange. ”Didn't they say that there's no problem with the signal here in the forest? It was still working fine yesterday.”

She attempted to visit a few websites but failed. Lin Xin did not think any further and closed the webpage. She sat up, rubbing her face and suddenly recalled what Lin Huang had told her before.

”As a hunter, you have to pay attention to every detail. If you neglect any of them, it can lead to serious consequences. Network failure will rarely happen on the network of the Emperor's Heart Ring, but it's not absolutely impossible. However, when network and communication failure happens at the same time, you have to consider if somebody has done something to it…”

Lin Xin immediately checked the communication webpage and realized that there was a cross on the communication signal. She attempted to call Lin Huang and soon, she heard, ”Sorry, the service is not supported in your region.” Since the first attempt failed, she tried to call Ai Li and the same notification was heard.

”The network and communication have been blocked,” Lin Xin sighed in a low voice. She immediately opened the tent and rushed out in her pink pajamas.

Ai Li was sitting on a stool, staring at the projection from the Emperor's Heart Ring.

”Ai Li, can you connect to the network?” Lin Xin asked curiously.

”I couldn't connect to it since I woke up.” Ai Li shook her head.

”What are you looking at?”

Ai Li helplessly turned the webpage to Lin Xin.

”Monster Guide – Leech Pods,” Lin Xin read out loud and covered her mouth as she laughed, ”You didn't forget to study during the battle drill. You're indeed Ai Li!”

”I didn't want to do so, but the network isn't available here, and I have nothing else to do. I downloaded the textbook earlier… It's impossible for me to sit here staring blankly.” Ai Li was unsatisfied.
