The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 30: Quite Symmetrical
Su Ninglong made earrings for herself, naturally for herself to wear.

During the making process, the earrings recognized their owner and when they were fastened to her ears, they automatically went into her earlobes.

The ear piercing process was a bit painful. The two light blue pendants glowed with spiritual light. As soon as they touched the skin, they turned into streams of light and penetrated into the flesh.

Su Ninglong looked at herself in the mirror next to her. The earrings were almost like studs, and there was a small teardrop-shaped bell close to the earlobe.

There will be no sound when running around, but it will make a sound when you shake your head violently, touch it with your fingers, or inject spiritual power into it.

Su Ninglong tried its efficacy and it made a pleasant ringing sound when she touched it lightly with her finger.

A spell like a clear spring flowed across the sea of ​​consciousness, washing away the drowsiness and making the mind clear.

It is a good work, but it is a pity that Di Ting's hair is missing. Di Ting's nails would be fine, but using nails as the raw material would be uncomfortable when worn on the ears.

She was going to put on the mental anchor and use it accordingly.

The collar at the back of her neck was suddenly tightened, and Xingyuan lifted her up like a chicken.

The veins on the young man's forehead were throbbing. He had only been looking away for two minutes when Su Ninglong pierced two holes in his ears.

Xing Yuan's mentality was a little broken. "Su Ninglong, do you think you are a last? Kuang Kuang just pierced his ear, what if it gets inflamed? He just knocked out a tooth last week, and this week..."

Su Ninglong turned her head and grinned, beads of sweat rolling down her black and white face, and her pink coat was stained with a persistent paint, like an abstract painting.

"No, it recognizes its master and won't hurt me."

"I'm fine, I know what I'm doing."

"Brother Yuan, where are you taking me? I haven't made my wool felt yet." Su Ninglong was reluctant to leave the studio which was getting farther and farther away.

Xing Yuan held her with his arms and said, "Let's go to the doctor. My teeth haven't grown in yet, and I'm causing trouble again. How am I going to explain this to Ms. Zou?"

At the age when he was still worrying about how to find a girlfriend, he had already successfully worried about how his children grew up healthy and safe.

From the school clinic's office, there was the sound of handheld game characters fighting.

Su Ninglong approached Doctor Lena's work station and stood on tiptoe.

Lena was playing games again, looking very focused.

There was a half-sheet of prescription pad under the cup at hand, and bandages were rolled up messily in the medicine box. Lena seemed a little careless outside the classroom.

When the protagonist of the game sawed open a dark red wooden door, he was killed by the door-opening attack.

Lena lamented: "Dead again, what went wrong?" She looked up and saw a dirty, cat-faced child. She was so scared that she trembled and almost smashed the game console on her face.

At this moment, Su Ninglong was like a ghost child in the game, coming quietly to the side and then starting a killing spree.

Fortunately, she still had her sanity.

"It's so late, what brings you here? Did you lose your teeth again?"

Su Ninglong grinned and showed her, "No teeth have fallen out. As a game character, you should bring the god's fork, not the saw."

"How long have you been watching? How can you know this?" Lena said, "It says here that the boss was seriously injured by the saw. After his death, he lingered here. He must be afraid of the saw."

"But the god he believes in holds a fork. Just before entering that door, the guardian beast you defeated said, 'My master is immortal and unbeatable.' No one can punish him on behalf of the god, so he can still show off his power here after his death. Only when the god punishes him will he truly die." Su Ninglong said, "If you don't believe me, start over."

Su Ninglong's words were well-reasoned, and he persuaded Lena to press her finger to restart the game.

"Ahem, Dr. Lena, please help this little girl take a look at her earlobe. She made a hole in her ear herself." Xing Yuan reminded.

Lena was shocked and her eyes were fixed on Su Ninglong's earlobe.

Invincible, a child pierced his own ears. "I've only seen children cut their own hair." Lena joked: "This ear piercing is quite symmetrical."

"I pierced my ears myself with earrings, so of course they're symmetrical."

Su Ninglong told the truth, but no one believed him.

Lena wanted to help her take it off to check her ear holes, but she couldn't and couldn't see where the ear studs were.

Su Ninglong said, "You can't take it off." She touched the back of her ear and the earring fell off automatically.

"Where did you buy those earrings? They're so exquisite. Did they use any new technology?"

Xing Yuan glanced at her fiercely, warning Lena not to agree with Su Ninglong and allow her to hurt herself.

Lena cleared her throat and said seriously, "There's no inflammation, no bleeding, it's a perfect ear piercing. If you come back for treatment later, it will have healed completely. Your technique is really good. Even if you can't be a hunter in the future, at least you'll have some skills."

She prescribed disposable iodine for Suninglong. When he broke open the small tube, the iodine would flow into the cotton, making it easier to apply.

"For new wounds, just be careful not to get them wet and keep them clean. If they don't get inflamed within three days, you don't need to come back."

"Thank you, Dr. Lena." Su Ninglong handed the iodine to Xing Yuan. "I told you I'm fine, but you insisted on coming over and wasting my time making wool felt."

Xing Yuan tapped her forehead and said, "You are right!"

"Humph~"

The wool felting is definitely not finished because the wool still needs to be dried.

Back at his residence, Su Ninglong lay down on the bed and went to sleep. "Brother Yuan, I want to hear a story. You must know something about what happens when hunters go on missions. Tell me."

Xingyuan wanted to say that her performance today was too bad and he didn't want to agree to her.

But he had promised her at the allocation center that he would not interfere with her choices.

As Su Ninglong's guide, he could only respect her choice instead of standardizing her life like he did with other students.

Even the simulator was allowed to enter without her permission, so it didn't seem like a big deal for her to pierce her ears.

Tell her a story or turn around and ignore her, two thoughts were fighting in my mind.

Finally, he took out a notebook, pulled up a stool, and told her a bedtime story with a horror twist.

"On a certain day of a certain month in a certain year of the interstellar calendar, a mysterious spiritual epidemic occurred at a slaughterhouse. It started when someone sent two crazed pigs to the slaughterhouse. They had rotten flesh growing on them for no apparent reason. To avoid wasting the pork, the merchant sent them in advance and slaughtered them first. The butcher's knife became stained with the rotten flesh... and gradually, all the pigs cut by the knife became infected with a strange disease, including the butcher himself. He chopped off his own head, but he didn't die. The rotten flesh from his neck twisted and squirmed, repairing his wound. Finally, the butcher replaced the pig's head on his body..."

In the end, the entire factory is still closed, sealed with black and white seals, and humans are not allowed to approach.

If there are curious people who refuse to listen and go in, neither the Star Police nor the Hunters will rescue them, and they will be on their own.

Over time, no one dared to explore again.

Su Ninglong asked, "Will the secret spirit disappear if I leave it there?"

"It won't disappear. A spatial layer has formed over the factory, allowing secret spirits to move freely. The pollution inside is very serious. The area is large, and there are many contaminated individuals. It is estimated that it will take the combined efforts of hundreds of hunters to prevent irreparable damage. There are only a few hunters in an area, and the slaughterhouse is located in the wilderness. There are no people around. If we leave it alone for now, it won't cause any harm."

"Do you think this story is scary?" Although Xing Yuan told the secret spirit incident as a story according to Su Ninglong's wishes, he would not tell a second story if she was left with a psychological trauma.

Su Ninglong suddenly said, "Xingyuan, you will definitely be my assistant from now on. No one can replace you." Just like Zou Shuyi, neither she nor he treated her as an ordinary child. They observed her words, actions, and personality to find a balance and get along with her. This state was very comfortable, like having two family members silently supporting, caring for, and supporting her from behind.

"Thank you for the affirmation from the future five-star hunter. It's time for you to go to sleep. Good night." Xing Yuan covered her eyelids with his palms and went to turn off the lights.

Su Ninglong fell asleep with a sweet smile.

The next day in class, her exquisite and eye-catching earrings sparkled in the sunlight.

She became the prettiest girl in the class, and the other kids asked her where she bought it.

Zhou Yu's big follower Aina was also envious. Her strong body was always ridiculed by the children in the neighborhood.

Wearing this pair of earrings, she will definitely be favored by her peers. Besides, why does Su Ninglong have the right to wear beautiful earrings? Isn’t she a top student?
A top student should focus on studying, not dressing up.

"Su Ninglong, take this off and let me wear it. I'll give it back to you after I'm done wearing it." Children's way of holding grudges is always so incomprehensible and unique.

"Aina, do you want to play with her?" Zhou Yu got angry when he saw Aina chasing after that kind of thing.

Aina stammered, "I'm not playing with her, I'm borrowing something from her. If she lends it to me, it's mine."

She asked for something and called it a loan, took it as her own and even dared to say it in front of the potential creditor. This girl is so domineering.

Su Ninglong: "You look like a fool, I can't give it to you. Besides, do you have pierced ears? You can't wear it without pierced ears."

"What are ear piercings?"

Su Ninglong showed it to them.

The children around them looked frightened and asked, "Won't it hurt to get your ears pierced?"

"It hurts! It hurts so much. Isn't there anything I can do about it? I have to go to Dr. Lena for injections and anti-inflammatory treatments, and I have to apply medicine every day."

Su Ninglong told a white lie, "Kid, don't take the risk of piercing your ears."

Not only is it painful, but you also need injections and medication.

The classmates who wanted earrings backed off and even began to look down on her with prejudice. She actually hurt her body for the sake of beauty.

Seeing that everyone started to stay away from Su Ninglong, Zhou Yu took the opportunity to fan the flames.

"Her mother works in a bar and is not a serious person."

"Let's not play with her anymore. She's a psychopath."

"He's good-looking, but not very smart."

"Yeah, she still won't share her rocking horse with us, only giving it to that idiot Charlie."

Prejudice in people's hearts is as big as a mountain. After knowing Su Ninglong's family background, they privately concluded that she was a little bad guy.

Being a heretic is almost equivalent to being a little bad guy.

Zhou Yu put his hands behind his back and glanced at Su Ninglong, wanting to see how helpless she was.

"Hey, little brother, have your parents never been to a bar? In interstellar law, is there a rule that anyone who enters a bar is a bad guy? If you are not a decent person, how can you run a bar and be a boss? You must have a legal identity..." Su Ninglong was not only unaffected, but also gave them some popular science when Teacher Yang was not here.

Zhou Yu had a sinister look in his eyes and turned to talk to little Phoebe.

He didn't believe that he couldn't cure Su Ninglong.

Su Ninglong was indeed having a hard time. Her wool felt material had not dried yet, so she could not make the gift tonight.

I am very worried that I won’t be able to dry the wool I plucked before the holiday. If it is windy and rainy on Saturday and Sunday, the wool will become smelly.

As we were talking, Teacher Yang came.

Teacher Yang explained the characteristics of the Shadow Crawler to them. "It is rated as a one-star mystical spirit, and feeds on tragedy..."

The statement is exactly the same as what is recorded in the book.

"Teacher, what exactly does it mean to attach to a sentimental item?"

"It refers to the object to which the person it seduces holds the deepest feelings." Teacher Yang said, "It must have existed in reality. This may be a little profound, but once you encounter it, you'll understand what I mean."

Su Ninglong glanced at the house filled with shadow crawlers. It seemed as if there was another space inside, with many translucent figures floating around.

Like a ghost, but also like going back to the past.

Teacher Yang said: "The shadow crawlers are like mice that hide their heads but show their tails. If you accidentally fall into an illusion, as long as you surround yourself with light, they will naturally retreat."

Su Ninglong was confused. She was already trapped in an illusion, so how could she find herself in the light?

Creatures that violate paradoxes also have to find ways to survive within paradoxes?

The class confused the little classmate, and Charlie was frustrated: "Sister, I don't understand."

"Don't say you don't understand. Even the smartest people find it hard to understand. The secret spirit is like a ditch. You don't know how deep it is before you step in. Only after you step in will you understand that it is bottomless." Su Ninglong recalled the process of dealing with the ogres these days.

At that time, my thoughts seemed not to be my own. There were many things I could ignore, but I couldn't control my brain.

She took all the bizarre phenomena for granted.

If it weren't for the golden warning, those three people would probably not have survived.

That night, Su Ninglong applied to enter the simulator. She wanted to enter the Shadow Crawler copy to see if she could find something she didn't understand.

One hour after applying, you will receive a notification that the simulator is being repaired and upgraded and needs further inspection before it can be put into use.

"Dear prospective online hunter, please go to a regular hospital for a physical examination during the system update period. The hospital will then upload the data directly to the Intelligent Computing Center. Without a healthy body and mind, the Intelligent Computing Center can no longer provide the Secret Spirit dungeon experience service. All rights of interpretation belong to the Star Alliance Intelligent Computing Center. Thank you for your cooperation!"

Su Ninglong: "Brother Yuan, should I go to the hospital for a check-up?"

"Lena will automatically upload students' examination reports. You've only been examined for a couple of days, so there's no need to re-examine. I'm guessing the Star Alliance is trying to regulate online hunting, so they've upgraded the system to remind all users to pay attention to their health status."

The next day, Su Ninglong saw new objects in Yun Fei's class.

The Qiankun Shrine is used to imprison secret spirits and is also a step before accepting the secret order.

The shrine is a disposable prop that can be transformed into a data room to "lure" the secret spirit into it.

After the secret spirit enters, the secret order is embedded in the bottom to complete the containment.

It is worth noting that the Qiankun Shrine has limited storage capacity and cannot hold secret spirits with too much data.

Yun Fei said that this is one of Bailie's mainstream tools, which is cheap and safe to operate.
