Chapter 59

The appearance of the tabby cat indeed brought a lot of joy to Lu Ran's life.

When Lu Ran was meditating and practicing, it would jump into his arms on its own.

Either rubbing and nuzzling, or falling into a deep sleep.

When Lu Ran occasionally felt like petting the cat, it would quickly jump away and hide far away.

I have to say, Sister Cat still has some tricks~

I don't know which "scumbag girl" she learned these little tricks to hook people from.

Hmm... could it also be a skill she was born with?

The only downside was that the little tabby cat didn't like using cat litter to solve its problems.

However, under Lu Ran's soft and hard tactics, the little tabby cat had no ability to resist and had to obey obediently.

The days of practice passed in a flash.

Time came to Mid-Autumn Festival, in the early morning.

Lu Ran called and sent messages to his mother and sister respectively, then took his three blades and hurried out of the house.

"Hoo~"

Lu Ran stood at the entrance of the apartment building and let out a long sigh.

In late September, the autumn days were getting cooler.

The trees in the residential area showed signs of withering, and the leaves were dyed a layer of golden yellow.

On this lunar fifteenth, Lu Ran walked in the residential area and naturally became the focus.

Inside every household, behind the windows, some residents kept looking out.

This time, no one shouted at Lu Ran or loudly scolded him to go home.

At this time, Lu Ran already had the demeanor of a martial artist!

Although he was wearing a school uniform, he stood tall and looked spirited.

And in his hands, he was holding a full three blades.

On that seemingly immature face, there was a hint of murderous aura, which matched the cold autumn day very well.

It was just that Lu Ran was low-key and didn't have a red scarf covering his eyes.

Otherwise, it would have been even cooler!

"Rustle..."

Lu Ran stepped on the withered leaves, listening to the crisp sounds, and walked step by step out of this golden world.

The street outside the residential area gate looked even more desolate and bleak.

The autumn wind rose, and the plants turned yellow.

Withered leaves danced in the wind, bypassed Lu Ran's eyes, and fell to the ground.

"Crunch."

Lu Ran stepped on a leaf and muttered: "Making it look like a funeral procession."

He raised his head, watched for a long time, and walked alone into this bleak autumn painting.

The only thing to be thankful for was that there was no rain today.

The night moon on the horizon, finally visible, right?

Twenty minutes later, Lu Ran arrived at Yuxiang City No. 1 High School.

The playground was already full of people; just like on the fifteenth of June, there were many Moon-Watchers standing on the side of the podium.

Interestingly, wherever Lu Ran passed, the chatting and noisy students fell silent one after another.

People mostly have a herd mentality.

When one area became quiet, students in other areas would also curiously watch and gradually become quiet.

As a result, when Lu Ran found the few members of his squad, the entire playground was silent.

The scene was very eerie!

Lu Ran kept his head very low; not only were the students looking at him, but the teachers and Moon-Watchers were also looking at him.

"Brother Lu, have you advanced?" Deng Yutang looked at Lu Ran, who had hurried over, and asked immediately.

"Almost." Lu Ran was a bit helpless.

It's a pity,

this time, the plastic bag couldn't be pulled out...

"It's okay." Deng Yutang encouraged, "After this fifteenth, let's go kill dogs again! Guaranteed to help you advance!"

Deng Yutang didn't know what deep hatred Lu Ran had with the thin dogs.

But the Vicious Dog clan was undoubtedly Lu Ran's lucky star!

Every time he entered Vicious Dog Village for training, Lu Ran's combat power and realm improved fiercely like riding a rocket.

"It's time to see a new demon cave and harm new demons." Lu Ran looked at everyone.

Jiang Ruyi raised her eyebrows slightly and teased: "Are you sure you're not going to kill dogs anymore?"

Tian Tian had a serious expression and whispered: "We can accompany you."

"Thank you." Lu Ran smiled, very grateful to have met such a group of teammates who indulged him.

Everyone had become believers, so they had to come into contact with various demons as much as possible in the shortest time and absorb corresponding confrontation experience.

Just killing dogs all the time, what's that about?

Jiang Ruyi nodded gently: "Okay, then let's see where the school organizes us to go next month."

Lu Ran suddenly raised his hand.

Jiang Ruyi looked at Lu Ran amusingly: "Speak."

Lu Ran suggested: "How about we go kill Soul-Splitting Demons?"

"Soul-Splitting Demons?" Deng Yutang was a bit surprised, not knowing why Lu Ran chose this type of demon.

Jiang Ruyi pondered: "Are there any Soul-Splitting Demon caves in Wu Lie River Province?"

Lu Ran: "I specifically checked, there is one north of Jinmen!

It's more than three hundred kilometers away from us, and it takes an hour by high-speed rail."

Jiang Ruyi nodded gently and asked again: "Why Soul-Splitting Demons?"

Lu Ran secretly thought it was a sin, his words were a mix of truth and lies: "On the night of the fifteenth of July, the first thing I encountered was a Soul-Splitting Demon.

That big guy was really reckless and fierce, like a crazy bull!

Soul-Splitting Demons, like Vicious Dogs, are common demons on the night of the fifteenth, and we will always encounter them.

I thought, let's have a few more rounds with Soul-Splitting Demons and accumulate more experience."

After speaking, Lu Ran looked at his teammates.

Deng Yutang was as straightforward as ever: "If Brother Lu wants to, then let's do it!

What's the difference between killing one or another? It's just a matter of a day earlier or later."

Tian Tian also had no objections; more accurately, she listened to Jiang Ruyi.

Jiang Ruyi was thoughtful, and in Lu Ran's expectant eyes, she said softly: "Don't use dirty words."

Lu Ran: "..."

Seeing Lu Ran's expression, Jiang Ruyi couldn't help but smile.

Beauty Jiang suddenly showed this playful look and was chatting and laughing with Lu Ran, which made other students jealous!

"Everyone, line up and assemble in class order!"

On the podium came the shout of a teacher.

The four-person squad quickly found Class 3 (4) and stood at the end of the line.

"This night of the fifteenth, your 12 classes, totaling 96 squads, will be assigned to 12 shelters."

Yuxiang No. 1 High School once had 100 squads, and one squad had incomplete personnel, with only 3 people.

After a summer vacation, students who should transfer or adjust had all settled down.

"This team performance ranking will be by class, and the assessment method for individual ranking remains unchanged!"

"You must be united and help each other, join forces to fight the enemy, and even more unconditionally obey the commands of the Moon-Watchers!"

"Otherwise, don't blame the school for deducting your believer points and expelling you! Do you all understand?"

"Understood!"

"Understood!" The students' response was deafening.

Compared to two months ago, the students at this time had made significant progress and naturally had more confidence.

"Very good!" The male teacher nodded with satisfaction. "Before the squads set off, there is one more item!"

As he spoke, he unfolded a data sheet: "The school, representing the Yunshan City Divine Bureau, hereby commends a student."

This time, there was no need to mention the name; everyone knew who had received such an honor.

The male teacher read: "Class 3 (4), Lu Ran, Xianyang believer!"

For the last four words, the teacher obviously emphasized his tone, letting everyone hear it clearly.

"This student, on the night of the fifteenth of the seventh lunar month, followed the Moon-Watcher patrol team and properly completed the city defense mission."

"Courage is commendable, performance is excellent; after comprehensive consideration by our bureau, we specially reward 30 believer points..."

Before he finished speaking, there was an uproar on the playground.

"30 believer points?!"

"Holy crap, is this damn full marks?"

"I've heard of adding 21 or 22 points, and also 10 or 8 points, can this still add up to 30 points?"

"No! Why?"

"I stayed in the demon cave for so long, fighting for my life, and only got 6 summer homework points, he can earn 30 in one night?"

"Stop BBing, my Brother Ran being able to survive is worth more than 6 points! That was the fifteenth of July..."

"Quiet!!" The male teacher gave a sharp shout, suppressing the noisy playground.

He continued what he had just said: "30 believer points, one Obsidian Blade, as encouragement."

"I hope the student maintains the momentum and makes persistent efforts!

"In addition, be prepared at all times; every night of the fifteenth, if the mission requires it, our bureau will summon you to join the team at any time!"

The male teacher's words fell, and he looked into the distance, looking at the squad at the end of the line.

The playground was silent, and the students had different expressions, looking quite wonderful.

Regarding the preciousness and rarity of obsidian, believers all know it.

However, this can only be considered an external object.

What is truly incredible is...

The Divine Bureau clearly stated: if the mission requires it, they will summon Lu Ran at any time?

Moon-Watchers are one fiercer than the other!

Why can a small fry like Lu Ran help the Moon-Watcher team?

Isn't this a joke?

"Remind you all." The male teacher said in a deep voice, "Lu Ran's individual believer points have reached as high as 82 points."

"Vicious Dog Village assessment, first on both lists, 20 points."

"June fifteenth city defense, first on both lists, 20 points."

"Summer homework 6 points, training homework after the start of the third year of high school 6 points."

"Plus the 30 points for this additional test, totaling 82 points!"

The male teacher counted them like family treasures, word by word, determined to let every classmate hear clearly.

The students were numb, and Lu Ran himself was also numb!

What are you doing?

Do I need you to read it?

If I want to be mocked, I'll go on stage myself and bleat twice, okay?

The male teacher said seriously: "And the student ranked second in our school's individual ranking has 44 points, Gao Zhonglin!"

For a time, Gao Zhonglin's expression was quite wonderful!

He didn't know if he should be happy or uncomfortable...

Jiang Ruyi shook her head and smiled; her believer points were 43, not surpassing the Greedy Wolf believer.

Although she followed the squad and added points ten by ten, in the first assessment, her individual ranking was too low, with only the basic 3 points.

Looking at it from another angle, in the case of failing one exam, she was still only 1 point less than the second place!

Lu Ran was indeed a fragrant big lamb leg.

And even more a tool for gaining points!

Jiang Ruyi shook her head and smiled, while some people's cheeks were burning hot.

In the crowd, Ma Tianchuan lowered his head and remained silent.

The proud son of heaven in the past didn't even have the qualifications to have his name mentioned.

Since everyone became believers, one after another, guys who didn't know where they came from all stepped on his head...

"Don't be discouraged."

"What?" Ma Tianchuan looked at the teammate beside him.

Wu Shanshan, who always loved to laugh, was expressionless at this moment and said lightly: "The days are still long."
