83: Chapter 83 The Chuunibyou Girl: Is this the slime that suppresses the world?
"I'm willing, I'm willing."
Cheng Niannian nodded frantically.
Compared to others,
staying by Lu Yuan's side felt safer!
Soon,
Li Muyao and Admissions Officer Han Feiyan both left.
Lu Yuan kicked off his shoes, dashed to the second floor, leaped, and landed on his down-filled bed.
"Comfortable!"
This bed felt as comfortable as the one at home.
It must have been swapped out by his mom personally.
After catching up on sleep,
Lu Yuan looked at his three battle champions.
"Alright, where do you want to go first?"
King Slime raised its hand first.
"I want to go to the cafeteria!"
Little Skeleton and the Iron-Eating Beast froze for a moment, then said in unison, "We want to go to the cafeteria too."
Lu Yuan...
Always thinking about eating.
I clearly asked you to choose which Tower of Inheritance to challenge first.
Why go to the cafeteria first?
But there was no help for it—Lu Yuan spoiled them too much.
After a quick tidy-up,
Lu Yuan directly led his three Magic Pets out of the villa and headed to the cafeteria.
On the way, they met many students and teachers.
Everyone's aura was very strong.
Even the janitors sweeping the floor were above level 10.
"Whoa, master, everyone here is so powerful."
King Slime sat on Lu Yuan's shoulder, eyes gleaming, eager to find someone to blow up.
The tall Little Skeleton following behind Lu Yuan nodded solemnly.
"Master, this place is dangerous!"
The Iron-Eating Beast at the back was exercising as much as possible even while walking.
It was walking on its hands, doing a handstand.
Looking at the three eccentric Magic Pets,
Lu Yuan ignored them and walked straight into the cafeteria.
As soon as he pushed open the cafeteria door curtain, a tantalizing aroma of meat wafted over.
The three Magic Pets' eyes lit up immediately.
"Meat, I want meat!"
All three had been through a big battle yesterday.
They urgently needed a large amount of energy to replenish.
Lu Yuan glanced at the 1100 credits in his personal account and waved his hand grandly.
"Eat your fill today!"
The three Magic Pets excitedly rushed forward to start picking.
The Star Academy cafeteria had no ordinary meals, only delicacies made from magical beasts and heavenly treasures!
Of course,
the prices were also very touching.
A portion of five-stage red-eyed short-tailed rabbit head cost 15 credits.
A six-stage ice flame emperor crab cost a full 100 credits.
Lu Yuan was stunned.
Wait, were these heavenly treasures really this expensive?
At home, they ate them for free, but he didn't realize they were so costly.
King Slime and the others didn't care how much the food cost.
They just ate.
"This, this, this, and this—I want them all."
"Skip the vegetarian stuff, give me one of everything else."
The cafeteria lady's hand didn't tremble.
She ladled out large bowls of delicious dishes made from magical beast flesh.
At the same time, she explained cheerfully to Lu Yuan, "Young man, are you a freshman?"
"These meals are already cheap enough. Outside, you'd have to pay at least double."
Admittedly,
the chefs at Star Academy were very impressive.
Every dish was perfect in color, aroma, and taste.
A few minutes later,
Lu Yuan left the cafeteria with his three Magic Pets, who were only half full.
The cafeteria lady at the window enthusiastically invited Lu Yuan back.
"Come again next time."
Lu Yuan looked at the 30 credits left in his account and quickly shook his head.
Can't afford it anymore.
I'd better have my family send more heavenly treasures.
"Full and satisfied!"
"Time for a thrilling battle."
King Slime said excitedly.
"Master, let me go first!"
"As the big brother, I, King Slime, have a duty to set an example for the little ones!"
Little Skeleton naturally didn't want to join the fun.
And since King Slime had given the Iron-Eating Beast a BOSS in the wilderness, the Iron-Eating Beast had no objections.
After a moment of thought, Lu Yuan said,
"Alright, let's go to the Tower of Conquest first."
The five Starry Sky Towers of Inheritance at Star Academy each granted different types of rewards.
Inheritances that increased damage, health, healing, or even speed were all suitable for King Slime.
But after comprehensive consideration,
Lu Yuan still chose the Tower of Conquest.
Most of the inheritances bestowed by the Tower of Conquest were skills that increased damage.
Led by Alita,
Lu Yuan and the others boarded the campus flight shuttle.
In just a few minutes, they arrived at the Academy of Conquest, over 1000 kilometers away.
Entering the gate of the Academy of Conquest, Lu Yuan saw a pagoda towering between heaven and earth.
It was a thirty-seven-story square stone pagoda, covering a huge area, with each floor at least 10 meters high.
Standing in mid-air, it pressed down like a small mountain, making it hard to breathe.
Lu Yuan arrived at the base of the Tower of Conquest and looked up at the stone pagoda emitting a faint red glow.
Just as Lu Yuan was about to ask Alita to explain the precautions for challenging the Tower of Conquest, a female voice came from behind.
"A new face?"
"Are you... a freshman?"
Lu Yuan turned around and slowly lowered his gaze.
It was a short girl with very delicate features, wearing a Tsunade cosplay, but with a flat chest.
The girl was now standing with her hands on her hips, looking up at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan nodded without speaking.
The cosplaying girl didn't mind and said to herself:
"Every year at this time, many newcomers blindly challenge the Tower of Inheritance and end up wasting a chance."
"Do you know that you only get one free challenge to the Tower of Inheritance when you first enter Star Academy?"
"After wasting that chance, each subsequent challenge costs 1000 credits."
"When I first entered school last year, I got burned badly."
The cosplaying girl pouted and said angrily.
Lu Yuan clasped his fists.
"Thank you for the reminder, senior. I'll be careful."
"Huh?" The cosplaying girl looked at Lu Yuan in disbelief. "Even after I said that, you still want to challenge?"
"No..."
The girl suddenly startled, looking at the dragon-shaped King Slime poking out from Lu Yuan's arms.
"Th-this Slime?!"
"Are you the national top scorer in this year's College Entrance Exam?!"
The girl looked incredulous.
Lu Yuan slowly nodded.
"Besides me, there shouldn't be anyone else this handsome."
He Yehua was stunned, then burst out laughing.
"You are handsome, but I'm not your fan—I'm a fan of King Slime."
Lu Yuan: ???
Little Skeleton: ???
Iron-Eating Beast: ???
King Slime was also very confused, then immediately got excited.
I, I have a fan!
I, King Slime, am now a person of some status.
He Yehua didn't care about anything else and immediately walked over to King Slime, looking at it excitedly.
"As a Slime, even though the world looks down on it and calls it the weakest Magic Pet, it still works hard, suppresses the era, and rules the ages!!"
"How inspiring is that?!"
"King Slime, I'm your die-hard fan."
"Can I take a photo with you?"
He Yehua clasped her hands together and bowed exaggeratedly.
King Slime took a deep breath, and its whole face turned red.
"Haha... of course, of course you can."
"Since you can become my fan, it shows you have good taste."
"I'm rooting for you, girl."
He Yehua was so excited her eyes sparkled.
What's more exciting than praise from your idol?
With a click,
after taking a solo photo of herself and King Slime,
He Yehua jumped up excitedly.
Then she realized Lu Yuan was standing nearby, frozen like stone.
"Sorry, Junior Lu Yuan, I was just too excited to see King Slime."
"Hello, I'm He Yehua, a sophomore at the Academy of Conquest."
Lu Yuan's worldview was collapsing.
Wait,
is human diversity going too far these days?
Someone actually becomes a fan of a Slime.
Isn't that too much?
Lu Yuan put on an awkward but polite smile and shook hands briefly with He Yehua.
"Lu Yuan, this year's freshman."
He Yehua nodded excitedly.
"I know you, Junior Lu Yuan. You're King Slime's Summoner."
"Are you now going to challenge the Tower of Conquest with King Slime?"
Lu Yuan nodded.
After careful thought, He Yehua said:
"With King Slime here, I think you can at least break through to the ninth floor."
He Yehua looked at the Tower of Conquest, which had 37 floors, a bit troubled.
"I know King Slime is very powerful, but you can't underestimate the Tower of Conquest."
"The Tower of Conquest is super hard!!!"
"I've been stuck on the tenth floor for months,
but this time I've prepared thoroughly and will definitely break through the tenth floor."
"King Slime, let's work hard together!"
