《The Adventure of Holy Beast Bai Xiaoli》C35. Even Alien Beasts are Afraid of Lord Bai
Advertisement
Proofread by Claire.KK
Joyce looks around and has a toothache. Is it a good way to attract its attention? Will something horrible be attracted here?
“Xiaoli, what’s the level of the little rhinoceros you’re talking about? An alien beast or a mutant beast?”
Bai Xiaoli shakes his head, “I don’t know.”
How can he distinguish an alien beast from a mutant beast? He has never understood anything in the class of Biology.
Joyce looks at Cang Yan helplessly, “I always have a bad feeling.”
Cang Yan looks around, “Me, too.”
By saying this, Cang Yan takes out the long sword from his backpack, and Joyce also brings out a long knife specially prepared for this trip.
Seeing two brothers all take out their weapons, Long Lan is too nervous to hold his long sword.
“Don’t be afraid, the little rhinoceros will only find me for revenge. He will not notice you.” Bai Xiaoli gives his comfort.
Long Lan is too nervous and almost loses his voice, “How did you offend it?”
Bai Xiaoli: “I’m just too hungry, so I bite it.”
Cang Yan: “…”
The confused Joyce & Long Lan & Rovel: “…”
They all feel that something’s wrong. You’re too hungry, so you want to hunt a mutant beast or an alien beast for eating. This is normal. What is excessively cruel is that you want to eat it raw. And why you let it escape after one bite? It’s so weird.
“Here is too narrow, not good for fighting; follow me.” After saying these, Bai Xiaoli runs toward one direction.
The other four follow him running quickly. It seems that Bai Xiaoli doesn’t run fast, but the four behind still can’t catch up with him.
They don’t know how long they have been running, when Bai Xiaoli stops running, and the four coming after are already out of breath.

“Here it is.” Saying this, Bai Xiaoli directly crosses his legs and sits on the ground.
Cang Yan looks around. This is an open space in wilderness of one hundred square meters; no tree’s here. The ground is flat, only several weeds grows. It’s a little strange to have such a space in the mountains.
While they plan to have a rest, the sound comes from the dense forests. They are instantly on guard. The bush clatters, when several mutant beasts rush out.
Cang Yan and others hold immediately the weapons and prepare to fight.
Looking at the mutant beasts which appear suddenly, Cang Yan and Joyce all feel pressured. These mutant beasts are all on level V or level VI. To defeat the mutant beast of this level, they must have the quality of D Grade Yellow Star. No one of them has reached Yellow Star. If they are surrounded, the odds are against them rather than in their favor.
Long Lan is almost frightened to piss, “Finished, finished, we’re over, we’re going to be eaten up, woooo…”
The mutant beasts rushing out are obviously frightened too. They stop rushing hastily and stare at the team vigilantly. Slowly stepping back and standing on tiptoe. It seems that the mutant beasts want to leave quietly.
They keep silently repeating, ‘he didn’t see us-he didn’t see us-he didn’t see us.’ What a bad luck, they are absorbed in eluding that rune beast, but runs into this devil like headless chicken. Why do they have such a miserable life?
Seeing the mutant beasts are going to escape, Bai Xiaoli shouts loudly, “Stop!”
The mutant beasts shiver with chill and stop in their place immediately, like being frozen by an incantation.
The eyes of the team nearly drop down. When these mutant beasts become so obedient? If you ask them to stop, they will stop? And they stand there in their own style, everyone having a unique pose?

No, that’s not right. Their ways of going out today must be wrong. All of this is so strange.
Bai Xiaoli turns to Cang Yan, “These are mutant beasts or alien beasts?”
Cang Yan is also shocked and feels difficult to come back to himself, “These…are all mutant beasts.”
“Oh, I don’t want mutant beasts, I want to wait alien beasts. The meat of alien beasts is delicious.” Bai Xiaoli shows mercy, “You can go.”
Like receiving an amnesty and congratulating themselves for not being alien beasts, these mutant beasts run away instantly and disappear into the thin air.
The team: “…”
Joyce turns to Cang Yan with a dull look in his eyes, “I think I was hallucinating.”
Cang Yan pats on his shoulders heavily, “Accept it.”
Throwing away the long sword holding in his arms, with worship in his eyes, Long Lan throws himself into Bai Xiaoli who is sitting up on the ground, “Xiaoli, Xiaoli, you’re so sharp, even the mutant beasts are afraid of you, it’s awesome!”
Sitting straight with a poker face, Bai Xiaoli just let Long Lan hold him and shake him like a tumbler. It’s Really a Little Rhino?

Synergy
Dear Inspector, Please accept this letter as my formal resignation from being a Player. Hey! Laugh all you want, but I had to try. With no rules down here, who's to say that I can't resign? Anyway, my reasons are simple: I'm neither a gamer nor a hero. You got the wrong person for the job. Sure, the pay is decent and I could pretty much live like a king if, you know, I wasn't so busy trying to survive. I have major concerns about the demonic dagger bound to my soul too. Come to think of it, I've never asked to be transported to this fantasy land either and would like you to return me home, thank you very much. I don't want supernatural powers, I don't want to complete quests after quests, and I don't want to be your test subject anymore. What? I'm not whining, you're whining. Stop making excuses and let me leave already. Thank you for your understanding, and I hope you'll find a better replacement after I'm gone for good. Sincerely,Randel, the Mad Painter What to expect from Synergy: --> Some GameLit elements are presented subversively. If you want the protagonist to “play the game” properly, this might not be the story for you.--> No filler chapters; the story's structure is already plotted out. It's going to have six story arcs.--> Character development happens slowly, over many chapters. Don't expect a perfect protagonist right off the bat.--> Some romance, but it will never be the main focus.--> Humor and dark elements in equal measure, but not to the extent that I’d label this story as “Comedy” or “Grimdark”. ... and lots and lots of Author's Notes. See you on the other side of the portal!

The Queen's Guard
Friedrich Schreiner is a proud gefreiter of the Queen's Guard, 2nd Company: the finest fighting infantry on the continent (barring the Temple Guard; but please don't bring that up). Service is honourable but, with the Empire on a peacetime footing, terribly boring. Affairs take a dramatic turn for the worse when a mysterious invader uses a forgotten and taboo magical means to breach the capital, plunging the nation into chaos and endangering the royal family. With events spiraling out of control, Friedrich is entrusted with a critical mission. Will hot lead, cold steel, and his determination be enough to see him through? The Queen's Guard is what I'm calling a black powder fantasy story: it's set in a loose equivalent of the early 18th century (plus or minus a few pieces I decided I wanted or didn't want). Magic exists, but not in a spell-slinging sort of way: it's Earth-shaking undertakings or minor enchantments forged in by master craftsmen, the grand working of a secretive cabal or a slight nudge to the course of a blow. I, the eternal optimist, have a full trilogy in mind. The first book is The Prince's Arquebusier, hence the cover and the title disagreeing! This is my shot at 2021's NaNoWriMo and RR Writathon! I've hitherto been terrible at writing long-form fiction, so this is an effort to break out of that by having some accountability in being supposed to post chapters regularly. Here's hoping it works! I have an outline, but not too much detail. I'll do my best to avoid continuity errors, doing anything glaringly stupid, or otherwise fluffing my lines, but I can't make any promises on that. Please do let me know any feedback! Always happy to improve. [participant in the Nov 2021 Royal Road Writathon challenge]
