Chapter 271 The Abandoned Cannon Fodder Beauty in the Apocalypse (60)
Bai Nuannuan nodded. "What you said makes sense. Why don't we go together? Ranran, what about you? Are you coming with us?"
"I won't go. I have a mission tomorrow," Bai Ranran quickly refused.
"Alright then." Bai Nuannuan didn't insist too much.
Bai Ranran blinked and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He just thought to himself, "I dare not go into this hellish place."
Every time Bai Ranran saw these five people fighting over Nuannuan, she felt incredibly awkward. Unfortunately, Bai Nuannuan was a completely naive person.
They really thought all five of them doted on her like a little sister. I wonder what Nuannuan will do when she finds out the truth.
Seeing that Bai Nuannuan had already said that, Lu Ziming knew that there was no point in objecting anymore, so he could only shrug helplessly, still trying to maintain a smile.
He said, "Haha, since everyone's decided to go together, let's meet at the research institute entrance tomorrow."
Although he said that, Lu Ziming sneered inwardly, "I'll go to Nuan Nuan's house to pick her up first thing tomorrow morning, so that at least I can have breakfast with her alone."
The next morning, Lu Ziming got up early, carefully groomed himself, and then hummed a little tune as he walked toward Bai Nuannuan's house.
But when Lu Ziming arrived downstairs at Bai Nuannuan's house, he was dumbfounded.
The other four people, Lin Haoran, Su Yichen, Cheng Yuxuan, and Ye Zixiao, were already waiting there.
As soon as Lin Haoran saw Lu Ziming, he laughed and joked, "Hey, Lu Ziming, I thought you'd overslept. I didn't expect you to be here so early. We thought it would be nice to wait for Nuannuan together and have a lively time, so we all came early."
Lu Ziming was speechless inside, but he still had to force a smile and reply, "Haha, yeah, everyone's pretty enthusiastic."
Su Yichen looked at Lu Ziming with a mischievous grin, as if he could read Lu Ziming's mind, and said, "Lu Ziming, are you thinking of picking up Nuannuan early so you can spend some time alone with her? Too bad, we're all thinking about that too, that's why we all came early."
"No, no, it was just a coincidence. By the way, have you eaten yet?"
Lu Ziming quickly changed the subject, gritting his teeth inwardly, "That damned fox, he's got so many tricks up his sleeve."
At this moment, Bai Nuannuan hurriedly ran downstairs, "Sorry, sorry to have kept you waiting, let's go."
The five people immediately composed themselves and put on gentle smiles.
The six of them set off on their way to the research institute, chatting and laughing as the golden sunlight shone on them. And Bai Nuannuan and their story continued.
...
Twenty years later, Dawn City.
Under the azure sky, a gentle breeze blows, and a few wisps of white clouds drift lazily by.
On the street, five teenagers dressed in matching outfits strode energetically toward the arena of the Superpower Academy.
Their school uniforms were simple yet neat, with the hem swaying gently in the wind, as if they too were eager to try out for the upcoming competition.
"Have you heard? Other academies have produced quite a few strong individuals in this competition. For example, Yan Lie from Xingyao Academy is said to have reached an extremely terrifying level in his ability to control flames. In the last practical exercise, he single-handedly withstood the combined attack of several opponents. That scene was truly astonishing!"
A tall, slender boy with bright eyes spoke first. He was playing with a small power amplifier in his hand, which flickered with a faint blue light as he moved, reflecting the tense and excited expression on his face.
A rather burly young man next to him snorted coldly, crossed his arms, and the veins on his taut arms were faintly visible.
He curled his lip and said, "Hmph, Yan Lie is powerful, but we're not bad either! Besides, I've heard there's a girl named Ye You at Lingfeng Academy who's skilled in wind-based abilities and incredibly fast."
During a pursuit mission, she easily captured the target with her super speed and agility, earning praise from many people.
However, we've come prepared this time, and we're not afraid of them.
At this moment, a young man with short, neat hair, walking in the middle of the group, spoke with sharp eyes: "These strong individuals are indeed not to be underestimated, but our training over this period of time has not been in vain."
We must achieve good results this time, because Dr. Shen Chumo is very likely to attend the competition!
Upon hearing this, the previously noisy group instantly fell silent, and the eyes of several teenagers lit up, their faces filled with excitement and admiration.
"Really? Dr. Shen is really coming?"
A boy who looked a little younger, with a clever look in his eyes, couldn't help but raise his voice, his hands clasped tightly together, his body trembling slightly with excitement.
"It's 90% true. I personally confirmed this with my advisor at the college."
Dr. Shen's achievements in the field of supernatural ability research over the years are evident to all. The methods she developed to improve the stability of supernatural abilities and expand their application have benefited countless supernatural beings.
Moreover, it's said that she's recently made a new breakthrough, and her participation in this competition might bring us some fresh ideas and guidance.
The short-haired boy spoke with a proud expression, as if he were Shen Chumo's personal disciple and knew everything about her.
"If we could get personal guidance from Dr. Shen, even just a single sentence, we would have made a huge profit in this competition!"
The burly young man excitedly waved his fist, his face beaming with anticipation. He was already imagining himself, under Dr. Shen's guidance, making rapid progress in his superpowers and shining brightly in the competition.
"I heard that Dr. Shen is not only a strong researcher, but also very beautiful and elegant, like a fairy who has stepped out of a painting."
The clever boy blushed slightly, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and his eyes sparkled with curiosity and longing.
"It's a pity that Dr. Shen hasn't appeared in public for almost ten years. I wonder if I'll have the chance to get up close and personal with her during this competition." The short-haired boy sighed slightly.
"Perhaps this is an opportunity! After all, it's such an important competition for superpowered students. With Dr. Shen in attendance, he might select some promising students for special guidance."
The bright-eyed boy spoke with hope, quickening his pace as he spoke, as if he couldn't wait to get to the competition venue.
As a hero in the hearts of people all over the world, many people yearn to receive even a few words of guidance from Dr. Shen, or simply to meet her.
