Chapter 3888: A Bunch of Deadweights

"We originally wanted to take refuge in a small fortification, but who knew it had been attacked and purged by the Harpies? Not a single survivor was left in that small base."

"A group of us ran for our lives, fighting off Harpies with the crowd, all the way to this place."

"This is the eastern small fortification, right?" Lu Pinwen said with a bitter face. "I heard the fortification in the center of the forest was also breached."

"Now we're in trouble. Not only are there thousands of Harpies besieging us outside, but there's also a large beast horde surrounding us!"

Qi Xuanxuan nodded, patting him on the shoulder. "Alright, stop looking so miserable. Problems, after all, can always be solved."

Lu Pinwen smiled at her. "Student Xuanxuan, you're quite an optimist."

Little Fatty had been watching intently from the side. When he saw Lu Pinwen's expression, he immediately pounced, squeezing his plump little body between Student Xuanxuan and Student Lu Pinwen.

"Why are you smiling?"

Lu Pinwen: ...Strange, do I even get reprimanded for smiling?

"Hmph." Little Fatty squinted at the other, reaching out to grab Xuanxuan and drag her closer to him. "Xuanxuan, do you want a hot roasted sweet potato?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The little foodie immediately nodded repeatedly, her eyes shining as she turned to Little Fatty.

Little Fatty quickly pulled her towards the room. "It's inside."

He kept muttering all the way, "Don't be so friendly with unfamiliar students. Who knows if they're beasts in human skin."

Lu Pinwen exchanged a bewildered glance with Captain Qiu Fu.

Fifth Young Master Qin took a few steps forward, silently approaching Qiao Mu, and whispered, "There are still two or three hundred of our classmates outside."

Qiao Mu paused, then nodded absentmindedly. "Are they noisy?"

Now it was Fifth Young Master Qin's turn to be surprised. He then shook his head. "Not very noisy. It's just that many people are injured, and their spirits are quite low."

Qiao Mu: A bunch of weaklings!

Their spirits are low just from a little injury? And they have the nerve to go on a trial?

"I'll go out and see them, and bring them in." Qiao Mu snorted, about to jump down.

Mo Lian quickly reached out and hugged her, laughing exasperatedly. "Qiao Qiao, there are so many people crowded below, how will you bring them in?"

Besides, the small courtyard was already packed with over a hundred people, barely having standing room. How could they drag in another two hundred-plus students from outside?

Qiao Mu said expressionlessly, "Put them in a storage talisman!"

A bunch of people who only drag others down, they're annoying to look at!

This baby doesn't feel like caring if they live or die. I just don't want to see that miserable face of the swindling dean, hmph!

Mo Lian curved his lips, then gently stroked the little one's head. "Qiao Qiao, you're so kind."

What nonsense is he spouting? She's not some kind person!

"I'll go down with you." Mo Lian chuckled, rubbing against the little one's head, and grabbed her small hand. The two flipped and leaped down from the small building, lightly drifting towards the outside of the small courtyard.

Inside the fortification outside the small courtyard, it was already packed with people. The remnants of the Royal Academy forces occupied a corner, a hundred-plus people sitting in rows, looking pale.

"Crown Prince?"

"Hey, the Crown Princess is here!"

"The Crown Prince and Crown Princess are here!" Someone shouted.

The dejected group from the Royal Academy, who had been drooping their heads, looked up, and their eyes immediately shone with joy.
