Chapter 69: The Little Skeleton's Misfortune
Chapter 69: The Little Skeleton's Misfortune
At the Vocational Center, Li Wu and his group were in one of the large halls.
The day after Li Wu and his companions were detained, this thousand-square-meter hall was divided into two parts.
This division wasn't done by the Vocational Center staff but by the breeders themselves.
On one side were the professionals, and on the other, the non-professionals, forming two distinct circles.
The smaller group of professional breeders occupied a larger area with better locations, while the non-professionals were squeezed into the corner.
This wasn't a case of the professionals bullying the non-professionals.
They didn't have the time for such trivial matters; this division of territory simply stemmed from the non-professional breeders' innate reverence for knowledge.
The atmosphere in these two circles was also entirely different.
The non-professional side gathered and exchanged ideas whenever they weren't in class, while the professionals mostly kept to themselves and quietly focused on their individual research during breaks.
It wasn't that the professionals were unsociable; their passion for knowledge simply didn't match that of the non-professional breeders.
They simply didn't need to be like that.
After obtaining their professional certifications, these professional breeders had gained access to the mentor intranet.
The mentor intranet was feature-rich, even hosting forums for professional breeders. They could communicate by simply holding their smartphones and opening their computers, with no need to interact like the non-professional breeders.
Li Wu wasn't aware of these details.
He just felt a bit regretful that these professional breeders hadn't joined, as he had fewer opportunities to take advantage of them.
However, he quickly put his regrets aside.
Li Wu discovered that there was still plenty of 'wool' to be had from the non-professional breeders.
Firstly, there were more non-professional breeders, and with Li Wu and Li Kai present, there were as many as 89 of them.
Moreover, almost every non-professional breeder had their own specialized field of expertise.
It was only today that Li Wu realized how diverse a breeder's field could be.
Some were skilled in breeding Necromancers, others in Beastmasters, and still, others in Humanoid Summoners.
There were also those who focused on the Alchemist path, those who specialized in Summoner Gear, and those dedicated to Summoner Skill Development.
Among the 89 individuals, even those following the same path had their unique specializations.
In this circle, Li Wu felt like a shepherd with scissors, surrounded by wool everywhere!
So, Li Wu began to frantically shear the 'wool'!
During the first three days of their confinement, Li Wu kept Li Kai at the forefront, actively engaging in conversations and setting the tone.
Meanwhile, Li Wu himself listened attentively, holding his phone and taking notes.
Yes, during these days, Li Wu rarely let go of his phone, much to the little skeleton's dismay.
The main reason was that the last time the little skeleton's strength had improved to 2-stars, Li Wu had held onto the phone, waiting for it to reach 3-stars.
So, he had promised to give his phone to the little skeleton.
At first, the little skeleton was a bit confused.
It didn't understand what Li Wu meant by giving it his phone. Did he mean letting it watch TV?
The little skeleton was a bit delighted!
When Li Wu explained that the phone would belong to the little skeleton, and it could watch TV whenever it wanted, and even play games, the little skeleton was overjoyed.
It had finally understood, and it was thrilled.
That night, the little skeleton tucked Li Wu in several times.
Li Wu didn't push it away, and the little skeleton would cover him again if he uncovered himself.
At that moment, the little skeleton thought Li Wu was the best!
Now, the little skeleton thinks Li Wu is a fraud.
It was agreed that the little skeleton could have the smartphone, and that it could watch TV or play with the phone whenever it wanted. But the very next day, Li Wu took the phone away.
The little skeleton hadn't played with a phone in a long time.
It even started to feel a little upset.
The kind that wasn't easy to pacify.
Well, Li Wu didn't intend to soothe it, or rather, immersed in the ocean of knowledge, he completely forgot about this matter and didn't notice the skeleton's little mood.
It wasn't until Li Wu's phone, which had been on for several days with its long battery life, ran out of power, and he found it bothersome to keep the phone on him, that he tossed the phone back to the little skeleton.
At that moment, the little skeleton was feeling wronged.
Unexpectedly, Li Wu suddenly returned the phone to it, surprising the little skeleton.
After getting the phone back, the little skeleton discovered it wouldn't turn on.
It didn't understand and thought its phone was broken, not realizing it was out of power. Angry, the little skeleton pulled Li Wu out of his ocean of knowledge.
Li Wu, who was abruptly pulled out, was initially furious, but when he turned around and saw the little skeleton holding the phone, its eye flame flickering with resentment, looking like it was about to burst into tears, Li Wu had no choice.
"This phone isn't broken, it just ran out of power. Just charge it and it'll be fine."
In a 6, 9, book, and bar, there's no mistake!
Power?
What's that? What does charging mean?
The little skeleton was still confused and didn't understand.
Li Wu could only point to the little skeleton's baseball bat, "Look, the power is inside that!"
"Be a good boy, endure it for a few days. When we get back, I'll buy you a new phone and also get you a big power bank."
After saying this, Li Wu immersed himself back in the ocean of knowledge, leaving the little skeleton aside, who was left staring at its baseball bat and phone, still confused.
Phone, out of power, charging, the power is inside the baseball bat...
Could the baseball bat charge the phone?
The little skeleton's mind worked slowly, after all, it didn't have much of a brain, so it took a long time to reach this conclusion.
It wasn't sure and wanted to ask Li Wu.
But at this moment, Li Wu was already surrounded by a crowd.
The little skeleton had no choice but to figure it out on its own. It squatted down, placed the phone on the ground, and then pressed the baseball bat onto the phone, its eye flame flickering with anticipation.
Would this charge the phone?
Well, from then on, the little skeleton wasn't feeling wronged anymore.
Because it now had something to do.
It wanted to charge its phone.
As a Black Iron level Necromancer summon beast with no brain, the little skeleton's spirit intelligence wasn't high, it was like a two or three-year-old.
Its mind didn't have many thoughts, but it was stubborn.
It believed that by doing this, it could charge its phone, so it kept staring at it.
It didn't find it boring, nor did it feel stifled, and it certainly didn't think it was wrong to doubt itself.
Anyway, it just kept watching, one day, two days, it watched like this for over a week.
Meanwhile, Li Wu was completely unaware of the skeleton's situation.
It wasn't that Li Wu didn't care about his little skeleton, it was just that he genuinely didn't have the time.
At first, it was because Li Wu was busy absorbing the knowledge of other non-professional breeders. Later, Li Wu accidentally exposed himself, and then, Li Wu was surrounded...
