Rebirth Of The Queen Chapter 28
Advertisement
The intensity of sunlight entering the room through the window begins to decrease. The room temperature is getting warmer as a sign that time has entered daylight.
When Fu Xie Lan finished taking a shower, she decided to take a walk around the building. Continuing to shut herself in the room would not take away her curiosity.
Like this time, she walked down the stairs to the ground floor and out of the room, her eyes sparkling to find a building with several bookshelves lined up neatly in it. She knows it because she uses the power of her eyes. The building was not too far from her. She might be able to get information about this world from some of the books there.

Not fast or slow, Fu Xie Lan walked among the several bookshelves without noticing the presence of people who were also in the room. She didn't notice that everyone's eyes were on her. Some of them looked at her with displeasure and not a few gave her looks of disgust.
Fu Xie Lan continued to focus on finding some books that might reduce her curiosity. Her steps stopped when her eyes fell on the thick brown book with the words "History of Phoenix Academy" on the cover. If her memory was correct, it seemed like she had heard of the place from Elder Chen.
'Maybe I can start there,' she thought.
Her outstretched hand to reach the book was stopped by the presence of someone who was suddenly beside her.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Fu Xie Lan who felt that someone was talking to her turned away and found a girl who was roughly the same age as her. The tall posture with a slightly plump body gives a plus to her beautiful face.
Fu Xie Lan only glanced at her then returned to the book she had wanted to grab. But before the book was touched by her, another hand suddenly took the book first. It was the girl earlier.

"What are you trying to do, huh?"
"Don't pollute this place with your presence," said the girl sarcastically.
"Give it to me," said Fu Xie Lan, completely undisturbed.
"No, why are you reading this book? You're not even from the Wizard race. I won't."
"Hi friends, look! She is human, don't you guys realize that too? After saying that, everyone who was previously only paying attention now gathered in a circle around Fu Xie Lan with an unhappy expression.
"Fei Lin, she's a half-human smell of fairy, yes I feel it in her, "said a man among the crowd.
"But still human blood was flowing in her body," shouted another.
"I was wondering, what was that girl doing in this place? This area belongs to the wizard race," said a girl who was also among the crowd.
"Let me guess. Maybe she was kicked out of her race because of the cursed blood in her body hahaha," sneered one man followed by laughter from the others.
Meanwhile, Fu Xie Lan who was treated like that gave a cold glance and remained calm. Although she did not understand some of their words, she knew that they meant her.
"See?" The girl standing in front of her made a voice again.
"Nobody likes you here, you'd better go. Your presence makes me want to throw up," she added.
The girl who was called by the name Fei Lin saw the calm reaction of the girl in front of her made her very displeased. This was the first time someone was still calm after being bullied by her.
Fu Xie Lan then turned around and left the girl with an expression that was still the same without saying a single word. Very calm and indifferent.
Fei Lin felt ignored and grew furious. No one has ever treated her like this, especially in front of a crowd. She did not accept.
"You bitch, looks like you should be taught some manners!" the girl shouted and then pulled Fu Xie Lan's hair from behind.

Reflexively, Fu Xie Lan turned around, twisted the girl's hand then lifted and slammed the girl's body into the floor.
"Don't bother me if you don't want to get hurt!" the cold voice that had managed to escape Xie Lan's mouth swiftly silenced the crowd.
The girl who had fallen on the floor rose again, anger over her. Suddenly a bright blue light shot out of her hand and managed to hit Fu Xie Lan's body. A crash sound was heard. Several books fell as a result of Fu Xie Lan's body banging hard on the bookshelf far behind her.
"Don't bother me if you don't want to get hurt? What kind of joke is that? Look at you! Don't think you're a bloody fairy and I don't dare hurt you? You better scram,"
Fu Xie Lan coughed and managed to vomit blood, the impact was very hard while her physical condition was still very weak. If in her previous life, she would not have vomited blood just because of such an impact because her body was strong and trained, so very differently from her current state.
Suddenly a thought crossed her mind. Were the pills that Elder Bao previously gave in the forbidden forest were aroma pills? And now the effect of the pill was exhausted. That way they can know that she is human. She's not so stupid as to quickly analyze everything. But what's with the Fairy race? she couldn't understand at all. If only she had considered the dangers beforehand, she would not have taken such a careless step.
Fu Xie Lan tried to get up but couldn't. She is physically very weak. It looks like she has an additional task, training her physique.
Finished wiping the blood out of her mouth, her body suddenly returned to float in the air. Her breath became tight like someone was choking her neck.
"What did you say? Try to say it again," said the girl named Fei Lin sarcastically.
The crowd was silent, no one dared to make a sound and just watched the girl torture a half-human girl. They were well aware of the consequences when it came to dealing with Fei Lan.
"Stop!" An icy cold voice suddenly stopped the girl's actions. Everyone's gaze was fixed on a man they didn't realize was sitting in a corner of the room not far from them. The hood of the black robe he wore covered half of his face, only his gray hair was exposed, giving off a mysterious impression.
"If you want to mess up, don't stay here. Just disturbing," said the man.
"And you, stop wandering around!" He added again pointing at Fu Xie Lan then left the room.
Although only a few words, it succeeded in making it difficult for them to breathe. They felt both dread and awe at the same time. That was because that man's aura was very frightening, and also very charismatic. His tall and sturdy posture, the pure white skin that was visible allowed them to guess what the face under the robe would look like.
While Fu Xie Lan, somehow she felt familiar with that man.
Fei Lin who woke up from her admiration immediately caught up with the man.
"Hey wait," she said jogging. The pain from hitting her body on the floor just disappeared.
"I've never seen you before, I am Fei Lin, may I know your name? Who knows someday you need something from me," she added offering herself again after successfully reaching the man.
"Scram," said the man coldly and left.
The answer that made Fei Lan's annoyance even worse.
A few seconds later, Wan Lie, Elder Chen, and Elder Huang Bao came together.
"What happened?" shouted Elder Chen seeing Fu Xie Lan injured on the floor with several books scattered around him. He only left the library for a few minutes and was messed up like this.

Dungeon Darwinism: Deepest Dungeon
Dungeons are a lot like sea turtles. They’re born in clutches of dozens, if not hundreds. A hundred may be born at one time, buried in still burning cities, or in forests where the canopy hides the sky, or in ocean trenches at the bottom of the sea. But only one in a clutch ever makes it to the surface. Everyone knows about dungeons— monstrous factories that emerge out of the earth, full of riches and Arcana and power— and monsters. But most of humanity only know about the dungeons that make it. Mark doesn’t know anything about dungeons. He isn’t from this world, and only as a victim of circumstance has he become an unwilling half of a dungeoncore. The other half is a Dark Lord. (Rewrite)

Cybernetic Dragon
Idea Seven, or Inter Dimensional Explorer Automaton Unit-7, has had a bit of an accident. Hijacking the egg of a dragon rather than its intended target of a bird egg, it isn't fully in control of its host brain. Rather the two, dragon and cybernetic AI interface, must work together to survive in a hostile world of magic, dungeons, beasts and adventurers. The AI must deal with being a machine from a world of science trying to carry out its mission of exploration, while the dragon, Rex, must deal with being a cyborg living with symbiotic nanotech that sets him apart from other dragons. What adventures await them? Author Note: I tagged this story GameLit because it contains concepts like levels, classes, and dungeon/beast cores. But, it isn't tagged LitRPG because no one has status screens, other than occasionally Idea Seven who likes to organize data into blue boxes. It isn't a natural function of the world to display level ups or skill ups with an announcer voice. I mention this to set expectations, because otherwise I feel like LitRPG fans might be disappointed by my lack of LitRPG elements while others might be turned off thinking I have a lot of LitRPG elements. I think that if you approach the story with an open mind you will appreciate the gradual way in which the main character learns and expands his understanding of how the world works, but the game mechanics aren't meant to take center stage to the actual story.
