The Ferry of Salvation

Chapter 1491 What Has Become Customary

They must have been accustomed to eating a lot, and it was rare to see someone with their former expression, so why wouldn't they laugh?

This embarrassing matter, of course, I couldn't be like them!

Li Chonglou coughed lightly, his expression turned serious, and then he put the long black accessory into his mouth.

It wasn't as hard as when it was sandwiched, or rather, it melted in the mouth!

The moment the accessory entered his mouth, it turned into a cool liquid that slid down his throat.

Straight to the heart and lungs!

It was an indescribable comfort, like a person who had been trapped in the desert for more than ten or twenty days suddenly jumping into a lake made half of cola and half of iced water, immersing themselves completely, and the comfort of being fully engaged!

Even though he had prepared himself mentally beforehand, Li Chonglou almost couldn't help but exclaim.

Fortunately, his reaction was timely, and he immediately suppressed his emotions.

Opening his eyes, it was not difficult to see from the curious expressions of the gossiping people from afar that he had indeed managed to hold back just now.

Then his gaze fell upon this accessory.

This thing, he had to have it!

A strong look of determination burst into Li Chonglou's eyes, as if he would get it at all costs!

This thing could actually be effective against soul damage!

This was something Li Chonglou had not expected at all. Just by smelling it earlier, he had felt a cool and comfortable sensation in his mind, and indeed, after swallowing the whole thing.

The coolness rushed straight to the top of his head. If his soul damage was a forest fire, then this coolness had directly transformed into localized rain, eliminating a small part of the crisis for him!

The reason he instinctively suppressed his emotions just now was also due to this.

Others were indulging, but if he suddenly showed a shocked or ecstatic expression, it would inevitably lead to speculation.

Not revealing one's strength or showing off was the true characteristic of a master!

At this moment, Chen Pingfan beside him could not help but take the second piece of accessory into his mouth, and then resumed his engrossed expression as if no one else was around.

"Wonderful!"

Amidst his indulgence, he couldn't help but exclaim.

Hearing this, Li Chonglou rolled his eyes and quietly picked up his bowl and moved to the side.

It was too embarrassing. While others were indulging, they wouldn't make such shameful sounds.

However, as the next piece of accessory went down, he himself shivered.

Happy times are always short.

In the blink of an eye, there were no more accessories in the bowl.

Looking at Chen Pingfan again, the latter was also looking at him with a confused expression, as if asking why he had moved so far away.

"It seems each portion only has three pieces."

Returning his attention to the bowl, Li Chonglou fell into thought.

These three pieces of accessory had already improved his soul damage by at least one percent.

It seemed not much, but if this accessory continued to be effective, it would be a very fast healing speed. After all, he had developed a short-term immunity to ordinary herbs that treated soul damage.

If it weren't for this, he would have healed this soul damage back in the underground world!

And now, with only three pieces of accessory healing one percent, wouldn't that mean he would only need three hundred such items to return to his peak strength?

Even if he couldn't get that many, healing half of it would allow him to return to the peak strength of the sixth level, which would be enough.

Thinking of this, Li Chonglou's eyes suddenly lit up.

However, as soon as he looked up, he saw Chen Pingfan walking over with his bowl in his hand, his cheeks bulging with food.

He said in a muddled voice, "Brother Li, why did you move over here?"

Damn it, don't you have any self-awareness?

However, the student meal was not just about the three pieces of accessory; the remaining dishes, possibly due to the sauce from those accessories, also had some efficacy.

Eating them all was equivalent to consuming one piece of black accessory.

In other words, such a student meal was equivalent to consuming four pieces of accessory.

"How often is this student meal served?"

As he handed in his bowl, Li Chonglou asked the aunt at the passing window.

"Young man, do you want extra portions? You can get another one for just ten time points."

The aunt smiled kindly, making Li Chonglou very tempted.

If he remembered correctly, his welfare points had a total of one hundred points, so another portion was not a problem at all!

However, on second thought, he had just arrived, and many things couldn't be rushed. Moreover, the time was in his hands, so why couldn't he come for extra portions whenever he wanted?

So Li Chonglou resisted and smiled, shaking his head at the aunt.

"Next time, definitely next time."

The aunt didn't say much, but Chen Pingfan suddenly grabbed him and walked out.

"Brother Li, let's go quickly."

Seeing his slightly anxious expression, Li Chonglou asked, "What happened?"

"I saw Liu Tixing and the others coming. I'm afraid he wants to cause trouble."

Li Chonglou looked back and indeed saw Liu Tixing, Wu Di, and Liu Tianzhi walking towards them.

Liu Tixing's gloomy eyes were still fixed on him.

Why not kill this guy?

A thought suddenly arose in his mind, but he still asked, "One of the base's rules is no private fights, right? Why should we be afraid of him?"

"It's true that there are no private fights, but he can initiate a arena battle with us. If we refuse this more than three times, someone from above will intervene, and if they arrange a fight, we won't be able to refuse!"

Someone from above?

Li Chonglou fell silent for a while, and soon understood what Chen Pingfan meant.

This should also be information revealed to him by Master Qing.

Liu Tixing, Wu Di, and Liu Tianzhi were all from families with some background, otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to hold the positions of captains among the same batch of students.

In other words, these three likely had connections from above, and if the situation Chen Pingfan described really occurred, it was possible that the other party would favor their own people.

After all, if the General Bureau could truly achieve one hundred percent fairness, then the incident of the mole would not have happened.

However, Li Chonglou's attention was drawn to another point.

"If I remember correctly, this arena battle is also the only place here where time points can be traded, right?"

With a swish, Li Chonglou stopped abruptly.

Chen Pingfan, who was walking ahead, almost stumbled. Seeing that he had stopped, he anxiously asked, "Brother Li, why aren't you moving?"

Li Chonglou grinned, "I'm not moving."

"We still have to stay here in the future, we can't just run away every time we see them, right?"

Shouldn't we do that?

Chen Pingfan was confused.

But with this delay, Liu Tixing and the other two had already walked over.

It's over, there's no time.

Chen Pingfan sighed inwardly. He knew another thing: as long as they returned to the dormitory, even if there were conflicts, they couldn't be initiated in the dormitory area, which was an absolute resting area.
