《The Adventure of Holy Beast Bai Xiaoli》C27. Two Bowls of Meat Are Enough for Trafficking You
Advertisement
In the dormitory of Bai Xiaoli.
Long Lan starts his dream, “Xiaoli, Xiaoli, can you tell me, since we’re all weak in our team, if it’s possible, can I also be a regular?”
Bai Xiaoli ponders for a moment, “Compared with others, you’re the weakest one.”
Long Lan: “…”
Long Lan has his heart broken into pieces.
Long Lan: “Then who is the strongest?”
Bai Xiaoli stuffs the meat in his mouth, “Cang Yan is the strongest.”
“Puhha-ha-ha, are you joking, the quality of Captain Cang Yan is of one star, same with mine.”
Long Lan has an inexplicable sense of pride. Finally he gets rid of inferiority caused by his quality of one star. Look at Captain Cang Yan, what’s wrong with the quality of one star? One star can also be captain, OK?
Bai Xiaoli: “He has one star, but he can easily knock ten of you down with one hand.”
Long Lan: “Ho—”
Long Lan is frightened to almost get heart attack.
Long Lan: “How do you know that?”
Bai Xiaoli: “I see it with my eyes.”
Long Lan: “…”
Reaching out and touching, Bai Xiaoli feels the bag empty. He picks it up and finds it really empty. He runs back to his bedroom and searches for a while. Suddenly, he cries out, “I’m out of dried meat!”
Long Lan is taken aback, um…he’s running out of money in these days and forgets to buy dried meat for Bai Xiaoli.
“I want meat I want meat I want meat…”
“OK, OK, all right, stop, stop, and stop.” Long Lan hastily surrenders, “Xiaoli, can we have a small talk?”
Bai Xiaoli: “I want to eat meat!”
Long Lan suddenly turns to a despaired face. This subject is out of question. It’s blocked up by the words of Bai Xiaoli.

“Xiaoli, I have to confess to you. My pocket money of this month has already run out. You can only wait next month to eat meat. Now there’s only a little money remained in my meal card. Only enough to maintain our meals in this month.”
Because of back-to-school season, there’re many things need to spend money on in the first month of school, not to mention bearing two persons’ expenses. Long Lan really runs out of money.
Bai Xiaoli calculates the dates very seriously, and then goes crazy, “This is just the beginning of the month; if waiting to next month, I’ll be starved to die.”
Long Lan says with a long face, “You’ll not starve to death. We can economize. Just with the money in the meal card, we can hold one month.”
Bai Xiaoli says with dead fishy eyes, “You’re so poor.”
Long Lan instantly goes ballistic, “Why am I so poor? My piggy bank, my pocket money, all is eaten up by you!”
Bai Xiaoli considers for a long time and finally makes a decision, “I have to make money.”
Long Lan doesn’t care, “You go out now, then you will be trafficked in a second. To abduct you needs only two bowls of meat.”
Bai Xiaoli keeps his dead fishy eyes and returns to his room in silence for thinking about how to have money, a serious question for a beast.
This question lasts until the next day’s class.
On the third day from the beginning of the class, the teacher finally meets the legendary student in the class who is specially recruited with the score of 30 points. But this specially recruited student, who is fired up within only a few days since the term starts, is now lying on the table like a flat dead fish.

The teacher pushes up his glasses, his eyes sparkling.
“Bai Xiaoli, you answer this question.”
Bai Xiaoli looks up, “What’s the question?”
The teacher repeats the question with his corner of eyes twitching.
“It’s already 119 years since the Dark Age has passed. That’s the end of the world for the whole human being. The spaces collided with each other, the continental plates were regrouped, the creatures from other spaces invaded the Earth, and the mysterious energy flowed into the Earth. The original ecological balance of the Earth was destroyed. The animals and the plants mutated. Under the invasion of the mutants, and the alien races, human nearly died out.”
“However, human survived toughly at last. And we have found the secret of runes in the combat, learnt progressively to use the mysterious star power. We know how to practice by dint of star power and how to battle by virtue of power of rune. Finally, in the bloody slaughter, human race regained their sovereignty.”
“Bai Xiaoli, what’s the meaning of the appearance of runes for human development?”
Once hearing runes, Bai Xiaoli’s slobber almost runs down. Since he comes to this world, he has only eaten one debris of rune till now. It’s still bitten off from the bottom of the little rhinoceros.
Long Lan breaks into a cold sweat. He turns the pages quickly and prepares to prompt Bai Xiaoli.
Before finding the answer, he hears Bai Xiaoli say, “Delicious.”Tragedy Caused by Hunger

An old monster awakens in a new world, and he is very hungry. I just wanted to say this is pretty much my first continuous story and I'm still experimenting and figuring things out.
8 137Hazelsong: A LitRPG Novel
Release Schedule: I will be moving to a set release schedule as of 1/1/2022. A new chapter will be released every Saturday at Noon EST. If I have time that week for a second chapter, I will leave a note on the Saturday chapter and post the second chapter on Sunday at Noon EST. An up to date character sheet for the MC Erik will also be posted on Sundays at 12:15 PM. If life happens and I am for some reason unable to write that week, I will post a blank chapter giving you an update on where I am with my writing. Saturday Noon EST: First weekly chapter Sunday Noon EST: Second weekly chapter (if I have the time) Sunday 12:15 EST: Updated character sheet Synopsis: Years after surviving a deadly accident, Erik struggles to come to terms with his painful disability. When offered the chance to playtest the world's first full immersion VRMMO, he wants nothing more than to retreat back into his secluded life, until he learns what Hazelsong really offers. An escape from the pain. Hazelsong is a world of magic and adventure, a place where friendships are formed, loot is won, and glory and fame are there for the taking. While the threats feel real and the stakes are always high, there is only one thing Erik is really in danger of. Forgetting which world is actually real. Story Themes: Hazelsong is a LitRPG novel that not only explores the fictional world of a realistic online fantasy realm but the life of a man suffering in silence from chronic pain and PTSD due to a significant physical injury and disability. Mental health is an important subject and we all know at least one person in our lives who has or is dealing with some form of mental illness. I plan on putting my best effort forward to represent these illnesses in a fair and accurate manner. Not as a cheap plot device to help make the protagonist more unique, but to help paint an accurate picture for those of us who have been lucky enough to not have to suffer in silence. About the Author: I am Ash Durra, general video game nerd and a connoisseur of fantasy and sci-fi of all shapes and sizes. Needless to say, I am not a professional author (B.S. and M.S. in Education, 8 years teaching). After really getting into LitRPG novels over the past several years, I found my way to Royal Road, which has inspired me to use my spare time to begin writing a story of my own creation. As this is a hobby, I am not writing and posting chapters on any kind of specific schedule at the moment, though my goal is to post on average 1-2 chapters a week. I am incredibly excited to share this story with others as I write it, and I look forward to any constructive feedback about how I can improve in my writing.

Lance was just a barista at a Starbucks! If he knew that going for some drinks with his coworker and friend Allura would lead to involvement with the AMERICAN MAFIA he would have said no-way-jose! But he didn't know. And that might explain why he was drunk off his ass and having a good time with two hot guys he's never met before. But when said hot guys won't leave him alone and while trying to avoid them he gets kidnapped by some creep with too much hair gel things get interesting. AKA the Mafia AU literally nobody asked for.
