Chapter 71: Top Brother?

"Poop on your head...?"

Lin Mo's mouth twitched.

He couldn't understand how such a cute girl could say something so unhygienic.

"Han Mengqing, shut up."

Before Lin Mo could answer, Han Mengyao glared at her younger sister.

After scolding her sister, Han Mengyao turned around and explained in a flat tone:

"Sorry, my sister means you were ranked first in the Long Xu Ban. The Long Xu Ban list is ranked by comprehensive strength."

Younger sister Han Mengqing stuck out her tongue and nodded frantically:

"Yeah, yeah, that's exactly what I mean!"

"Wow, how did you, a blank-slate mage, manage to crush so many SSS-rankers?"

"Even Ye Kong from the Capital, my sister, and Sister Lingxuan are all ranked below you..."

"..."

Lin Mo's mouth twitched slightly.

Although that's what was said, what the hell does "ranked below" mean?

Can you speak properly?

Han Mengqing introduced herself regardless:

"Alright, Top Brother, I'm a Healer class! Since we're all classmates now, please take good care of me!"

"Healer?"

Lin Mo looked at Han Mengqing with some surprise.

A Healer who can enter the Long Xu Ban?

Then it seems her support ability must be top-tier, the absolute peak.

'Earth Shield Technique' instantly became active.

【'Earth Shield Technique' excited: A Healer? A living, powerful Healer! Master, Master! Get on good terms with her quickly! With a powerful Healer around, our safety factor will skyrocket!】

【'Fireball Technique' full of disdain: Tsk, only the weak need support.】

【'Fireball Technique' glanced at the other side of the skill bar after speaking: Hey, Third Brother, don't you agree? For us violent damage dealers, we don't need any Healer at all, right?】

【'Lightning Strike Technique': Boring.】

【'Fireball Technique' choked with anger: You...】

Hearing the skills' squabbling, Lin Mo was also speechless.

Later, I might as well just call Lightning Strike Technique "Boring Bro".

"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. Who doesn't like a powerful Healer? I'll have to rely on Classmate Han to heal me a few times later; I cherish my life too."

Lin Mo said with a smile.

Regardless of whether a Healer is needed later, we are all classmates; saying some polite words is no problem.

However, as soon as these words came out.

Han Mengyao, who had just taken out a book to read, paused.

She raised her head and looked at Lin Mo:

"If you don't want to invite trouble, it's best not to let her heal you."

Lin Mo was stunned.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Sister! How can you undermine me in front of outsiders!"

Hearing this, Han Mengqing immediately became unhappy and shouted angrily:

"Top Brother, don't listen to my sister's nonsense; she's just jealous of my popularity!"

"My healing output and buffs, among my peers in the entire Dragon Nation, if I claim second place, no one dares claim first!"

After saying this, Han Mengqing secretly glanced at her sister.

Han Mengyao didn't explain anything further; she just snorted lightly and lowered her head to read her book again.

Watching the reaction of these two sisters, Lin Mo felt some confusion in his heart, but didn't take it too seriously.

After all, Han Mengqing's energetic appearance didn't look like someone who would harm others at all.

Moreover, a support who can enter the Long Xu Ban must be at the level of a super powerhouse.

It's probably just sisters bickering.

Just then.

Another girl with long hair draped over her shoulders walked over.

Seeing the newcomer, Han Mengqing's eyes lit up, and she immediately waved and shouted:

"Sister Lingxuan! Here, here! Why did you take so long to arrive?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Lingxuan walked over quickly, a look of apology on her face.

"Sorry... Mengqing, Mengyao."

"Just now at the platform, a little kitten almost fell into the track gap, so I went to help."

"After rescuing it, I got some food for it, so I was delayed..."

Han Mengqing pulled Chu Lingxuan to sit down and said while doing so:

"Sigh, our Sister Lingxuan is still so kind; she's simply a living Bodhisattva reincarnated!"

Speaking thus, Han Mengqing began to introduce enthusiastically:

"Sister Lingxuan, let me introduce you; this is our session's Top One, the blank-slate mage Lin Mo!"

Then she pointed at Chu Lingxuan and said to Lin Mo:

"Top Donor, this is our Sister Lingxuan, an SSS-rank Light-class 【Dawn Arbiter】, an incredibly powerful tank profession!"

A flush of red dyed Chu Lingxuan's pretty face; she shyly lowered her head, appearing somewhat uneasy:

"Top... Top Donor, hello."

"Pfft—"

Lin Mo almost couldn't hold it in.

He felt like the next second she'd ask him to send a rocket.

"Um... don't listen to her nonsense; just call me Lin Mo."

Lin Mo waved his hand.

"O-okay, Classmate Lin Mo."

Chu Lingxuan obediently nodded.

Lin Mo sized her up.

Her hair cascaded like a waterfall, her features were exquisite, and she spoke in a soft, quiet voice.

By any measure, she didn't look like the strongest tank at all.

【Fireball Spell, full of doubt: Just this? Still the SSS-rank strongest tank? Are you bragging?】

【Earth Shield Spell really liked her: Wow, she looks so gentle; she must be a good person!】

But Lin Mo didn't think much of it.

After all, she was SSS-rank and a rare Light-class; she definitely wasn't weak.

Suddenly,

Chu Lingxuan turned her head and said earnestly to Lin Mo:

"Classmate Lin Mo, although you're the Top Donor and your strength is unquestionable, mages are inherently fragile..."

"We're all classmates from now on; if you encounter danger in battle, please feel free to stand behind me."

"I will do my utmost to protect you!"

Lin Mo paused for a moment, looking at the earnest Chu Lingxuan; he found it somewhat amusing in his heart, yet also moved.

This Miss... really is a straightforward person.

"Then I'll thank you in advance, Classmate Chu."

Lin Mo readily accepted, not refusing this kindness.

Regardless, having an extra powerful Light-class tank teammate couldn't possibly be a bad thing.

Besides, this Miss had a kind heart; making an acquaintance wouldn't hurt.

Just then,

Chu Lingxuan seemed to remember something; she turned her head with some confusion, looking toward the rear of the carriage:

"By the way, what's going on over there?"

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look.

They saw that bald, burly man who had been so arrogant earlier, now huddled in the corner of a seat, wrapped tightly in a thick blanket, shivering all over.

A train medic was busy attending to him.

Several members of the escort team stood nearby.

"C-c-cold... so cold... help... quick, help..."

The bald man's lips were frozen purple, his teeth chattering.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Han Mengqing withdrew her gaze, gleefully:

"Serves him right; ignore that person, Sister Lingxuan; let's play cards!"

"Oh... that works too; riding the train is pretty boring."

Chu Lingxuan softly agreed.

Hearing this, Han Mengyao refused without a second thought:

"Not interested; you play; I'll read."

Saying this, she adjusted her sitting posture and continued immersing herself in the world of the book.

Han Mengqing was even happier instead. "Perfect! Let's three play Dou Dizhu!"

Saying this, she pulled a deck of poker cards from her small carry-on bag.

"How about it? Top Donor, want to play a couple of rounds?"

"Sure, let's play a couple of rounds."

Lin Mo agreed readily.

After all, the train ride to Kyoto was still quite long; passing the time wasn't bad.

"However, don't call me Top Donor; may I ask you to call me Lin Mo?"

Lin Mo reminded them helplessly.

Han Mengqing stuck out her tongue and shuffled the cards skillfully:

"Got it, got it; okay, Classmate Lin Mo!"
