You Just Said "Trump Card," Right?
Xiao Bai's indifferent voice came from the doorway.
Chen Xiaoxia turned around and saw Xiao Bai leaning against the classroom door, arms crossed, looking at them with a cold gaze.
She could even detect a hint of mockery in Xiao Bai's eyes!
"... Then you just stood by and watched me try to climb out the window!? You did it on purpose, didn't you!" More and more angry marks appeared on Chen Xiaoxia's forehead.
If they weren't still in danger at this moment, and if she weren't no match for Xiao Bai, she probably would have really fought with Xiao Bai!
"After all, it's much better to let some idiot do the experiment himself than to tell him."
Xiao Bai gave his reasons.
But Chen Xiaoxia chose not to believe her. "You did it on purpose!"
"Hmph, think what you want." Xiao Bai snorted lightly, choosing not to continue arguing with the blue idiot beside him, but instead strode forward to the window.
She came to Chen Xiaoxia's side, stood in front of the window, and with a flick of her right hand, a long-handled silver scythe was already in her grasp.
Seeing this, Chen Xiaoxia asked in surprise, "What are you going to do?!"
"Is there even a question? Since the soft methods aren't working, then we can only—"
Xiao Bai acted without hesitation; before she could even finish her sentence, the sickle had already fallen straight down towards the window!
"--Let's go for the hard way!"
The Cutting Magic took effect; a silvery-white scythe-like aura, capable of Severing almost anything, landed on the window in front of them.
If it were an ordinary window, this scythe would have instantly sliced it into pieces, leaving no other possibility.
But when Xiao Bai struck, the scythe pierced through the window. Immediately afterward, Xiao Bai's pupils contracted, and he grabbed Chen Xiaoxia beside him with his right hand, quickly leaving the spot.
Clang!
A silver blade of energy came from behind them, shattering the wall and heading straight for the two!
As Xiao Bai grabbed Chen Xiaoxia, he swung his scythe backward with force, and another identical blade of energy appeared in his hand, colliding with the previous scythe blade of energy in mid-air!
Bang!!!
The two silver blades of magic collided and scattered into even more tiny magical energies. These energies, carrying the property of Severing, flew throughout the classroom, slicing everything in the classroom into pieces!
"Whoa--! You've gotten yourself into big trouble!!"
When everything calmed down, Chen Xiaoxia, who was hiding behind Xiao Bai, looked at the mess in the classroom and said to Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai gripped his sickle tightly, ignoring Chen Xiaoxia.
She looked at the spot where the blade of energy had just flown from, then turned to look at the window behind her, frowning as she said:
"This is... Three-Dimensional Sphere?"
Chen Xiaoxia: "?"
Three-Dimensional Sphere?
What's the meaning?]
Chapter 110 You just mentioned 'trump card,' right?
Chen Xiaoxia didn't quite understand what Xiao Bai was saying; it was clearly beyond her current knowledge.
Xiao Bai explained simply:
"My attack just now went through the wall, right?"
Chen Xiaoxia nodded.
Xiao Bai repeated, "But then it flew out from the other side, smashed through the wall, and attacked us. And the place it flew out from—"
Xiao Bai looked through the gap in the broken wall.
Those are the corridor windows opposite the classroom; the attack just now came from there.
"Oh, so this is the... ball you were talking about?" Chen Xiaoxia blinked.
Xiao Bai sighed, rubbing his forehead, like a good student lamenting the helplessness of a bad student.
She said, "It's Three-Dimensional Sphere, a finite yet 'infinite' sphere."
"To put it simply, it's like this Blue Star beneath our feet. No matter which direction you walk on this Blue Star, as long as you keep walking, you'll always return to your starting point, right?"
"And this place is like a closed 'Blue Star.' No matter which direction we go from here, we'll always return to the starting point, just like... my attack just now."
Chen Xiaoxia only vaguely understood Xiao Bai's explanation.
Although she didn't quite understand, Chen Xiaoxia realized one thing. "So, does that mean we can't get out?!"
"No way! My house has a curfew. If I don't go home by the designated time, my damn old man will definitely beat me to death!!!"
"Idiot! Do you think I don't want to go out?"
Xiao Bai said irritably.
Realizing she might be trapped here, Xiao Bai became anxious. She stared at the broken walls and the seemingly ordinary windows on either side, her brows furrowed deeply.
If it were a real monster standing here, Xiao Bai wouldn't have any worries or fears; he would just kill it directly.
But now... in a room where even attacks are ineffective and she's only trapped here, Xiao Bai really can't use any of her tricks!
She was stumped for the first time!
(Xiao Bai knows quite a lot)
(After all, her current persona is that of a teacher, so it's normal for her to know more.)
(Does Xiaoxia's house have a curfew? Judging from the time in the Sky Screen now, she's probably going to get a beating when she gets back www)
(Xiaoxia is in a hurry to go home because there's a curfew at her house, but why is Xiao Bai in a hurry to go home?)
(Probably because of her brother Fang Ming [sad])
(Fang Ming, you deserve to die!!!)
(... This time I'm on Jealousy Bro's side!)
"A three-dimensional sphere..." Fang Ming, forcing himself to forget the opening scene of episode four, stroked his chin thoughtfully.
After thinking for a while, Fang Ming turned to Youyou and asked:
"Your magic can do something like this?"
"I already said it's not my magic!"
Youyou immediately retorted, and finally looked up at Song Niandong, who was hugging her, and said:
"This must have been made by Dongdong's 'friend'."
Fang Ming was startled upon hearing this and immediately looked at Dongdong, only to see that Dongdong was also looking at Youyou with great confusion.
Youyou continued to explain, "The 'friends' who have been corrupted by Dongdong do not have abilities that Dongdong can control, but they are generally related to their appearance."
"Teddy Toy Bear is flexible and highly elastic, and excels in attacks based on strength. Robot Robert is good in both strength and speed, and can also use various technological weapons on his body."
"So, if Dongdong finds a model of a toy house, or a special sphere model, and treats it as a 'friend,' then that toy house or sphere may very well possess similar abilities."
"But this ability will definitely have limitations," Fang Ming suddenly said.
"Of course!" Youyou nodded. "Dongdong's magic can only create one Middle Rank- level 'friend' at most, and this friend is our trump card, so we definitely won't release it easily."
"Therefore, this future friend on the Sky Screen must be of Lower Rank overall strength. Since it is of Lower Rank, its abilities must be flawed."
"Either there's a limit to how long this sphere can be maintained, or he can't make any offensive moves while the sphere is open. In any case... it's definitely not as powerful as you think."
Having calmed down and decided not to carry out her own plan, Youyou now analyzed Dongdong's future friend's abilities without hesitation.
Even if he doesn't analyze it, as the plot of Sky Screen continues to unfold, what's meant to be revealed will eventually be revealed.
It's better to say more now to lower Fang Ming's guard.
But to Youyou's surprise, after she finished speaking, Fang Ming said to her meaningfully:
"You just mentioned 'hit the gun'... right?"
Youyou:"..."
Oh no! I accidentally let it slip!
"Then... what do we do now?"
Chen Xiaoxia, who also only knows how to use her 'muscles' to get things done, was extremely anxious at this moment.
Even Xiao Bai doesn't know how to get out, so relying on her is even more impossible.
Fortunately, Xiao Bai was much smarter than Chen Xiaoxia in this regard. She only thought for a moment before saying to Chen Xiaoxia:
"Maintaining such a large space must consume a lot of magic power, and... this space must have a 'core,' just like the creator of Magic Barrier must be inside the Magic Barrier!"
"So, all we need to do is find that core? Then what are we waiting for!"
Upon hearing Xiao Bai's solution, Chen Xiaoxia's eyes lit up instantly.
"But before that, let's first confirm whether this place is indeed a three-dimensional sphere."
Out of caution, Xiao Bai spoke calmly.
Chen Xiaoxia tilted her head. "How do we confirm?"
"It's simple." Xiao Bai walked back to the side door of the building that originally led outside the school building, opened it, and stepped inside. "Just walk in."
"!!"
Chen Xiaoxia looked at Xiao Bai in surprise. She wanted to follow behind Xiao Bai, but then she heard Xiao Bai say:
"Don't follow me. Wait for me where I am. If the spaces here are interconnected, I'll come over from the other side in a bit."
"Oh... oh! Then hurry up!"
Chen Xiaoxia urged her on, but Xiao Bai didn't respond. She turned around, waved to Chen Xiaoxia, and then walked into the corridor ahead.
Xiao Bai's figure quickly disappeared in front of Chen Xiaoxia, who leaned against the edge of the windowsill, her fists clenching unconsciously.
As darkness fell outside and the school buildings remained dark, Chen Xiaoxia felt uneasy. She went to a classroom with a damaged wall and tried to turn on the light, but no matter how she pressed the switch, the lights in the classroom did not respond.
This is clearly not normal.
Spring City High School isn't some third-rate school; it wouldn't be so desperate as to turn off the power at night. This is enough to prove that this space, separated from reality, doesn't exist in the real world.
But Chen Xiaoxia didn't think about these things.
She gazed at the dark classroom and corridor, feeling the emptiness of the empty space, her breathing becoming slightly rapid.
No one knows that Chen Xiaoxia is actually quite afraid of the dark.
When she's with her friends, Chen Xiaoxia is fearless; she'd even dare to be the first to walk in a haunted house.
But Chen Xiaoxia couldn't handle it alone.
She was afraid of being alone in the Night Demon.
"Why isn't that guy coming over yet...?"
My right leg was shaking involuntarily, and my right foot was slapping the ground repeatedly, making a 'tap tap tap' sound.
This was originally Chen Xiaoxia's way of relieving her nervousness, but after shaking for a while, she had to stop.
In the empty corridor, a rattling sound came from within, which, combined with the pitch-black night, made it even more frightening.
Chen Xiaoxia is now eagerly anticipating seeing Xiao Bai.
Although she and Xiao Bai didn't get along, at this moment, Xiao Bai was the only person who could make her feel less afraid.
But it's unclear whether Xiao Bai misjudged the nature of this space, or if she encountered something else along the way.
Chen Xiaoxia waited for about five minutes, but still couldn't see Xiao Bai.
"Damn it! Could something have happened to that guy?!"
Chen Xiaoxia stood up and said.
She had no doubt that Xiao Bai would abandon her and run away alone. Their bad relationship was one thing, but their trust in each other was another.
Chen Xiaoxia couldn't believe that her comrade-in-arms, who had fought alongside her, would abandon her and run away. She preferred to believe that Xiao Bai had encountered some trouble during this time.
"Hmph, he's so arrogant all the time, but in the end, I still have to save him!"
Chen Xiaoxia muttered to herself, using this method to dispel her inner fear, as she walked to the side gate of the school building, opened it, and prepared to go inside.
