?Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Cat Cat and Little Wolf Girl’s Personal Items Get_1 Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Cat Cat and Little Wolf Girl’s Personal Items Get_1 Wei’er hummed and said, “You’re quite lucky. Even within Winter City, it’s said that there are not many power armors available. A functioning suit of armor, even an outdated model like this, is a rare find indeed.”


    Luo Xi lowered his head, stroked the metal of the armor, and suddenly asked:


    “If I wear this power armor, can I beat the Rat King?”


    Cat Cat didn’t even have to think before replying, “You’re dreaming. This type of cumbersome personal power armor was initially designed to combat Origin Beasts. Uncle Noss has at least the strength of a Third-tier Mutated Transcender, which is comparable to the strength of a disaster-class Origin Beast. Let’s not talk about your old, tattered goods; even with the latest model of power armor, with your current Tier-zero strength, you couldn’t possibly defeat a Third-tier Transcendent.”


    Luo Xi: “…”


    It seems that the idea of brute-forcing his way through challenges with high-level equipment can be discarded now.


    Thinking about it, if the opponent sees you coming in such a heavy piece of equipment, they would definitely run, and you wouldn’t be able to catch up. If they don’t run, then you need to seriously consider how you’re going to die.


    Wei’er observed Luo Xi’s expression, smiled, and comforted him: “But since you’re able to store it, our success rate in leaving Grey Stone Street and heading to other major cities has increased a lot. The biggest criticism of this kind of power armor is that they can’t easily be used for combat outside because they are too difficult to move. That’s not a problem for you, though.”


    Luo Xi nodded.


    That being the case, if other players manage to get their hands on something like this and conceal it in their expanded space, they would be able to take it out anytime, anywhere.


    It looks like I’ll need to be cautious around strangers who don’t carry anything. Who knows what they might be hiding in their inventory space.


    Luo Xi pressed the hat back onto his head.


    The forms of the two Lolitas with beast ears in front of him gradually became blurred.


    [This synchronization session has ended.]


    [Looking forward to seeing you again~]


    Afterward, Luo Xi opened his eyes at the table.


    The text on his phone screen was still displaying normally. Having gotten used to the alternation between Dream world and reality, he found himself oddly feeling like he was playing a ‘fully immersive game’ that only exists in sci-fi games.


    [Wei’er asks you, “When can you take all the stuff from your house? I thought you couldn’t store much, but now it looks like you could move everything out.”]


    Luo Xi pondered for a moment.


    In any case, I need to rent a place first. Who knows what they will stuff in there, and given my current situation, it really isn’t suitable to stay on campus anymore.


    [Traveler, you say, “Give me an afternoon.”]


    [Wei’er nods and says, “Does using your storage ability take time? No worries, as long as it’s done before midnight, you can rest for now.”]


    [You indicate that you don’t need to rest and pick up a book to start reading again.]


    [Basic Quest: Acquisition of Knowledge (1) is in progress…]


    While his character was occupied with reading and quests, Luo Xi glanced at his still sleeping roommates, then left campus with a small backpack. Sёar?h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.


    Since he had money in hand, renting a house wasn’t an issue.


    The house didn’t need to be too luxurious; he just needed a space to himself.


    Luo Xi rode a shared bicycle, wandered around nearby for a period of time, and after about three hours, perfectly found a house matching his expectations in a village in the city three kilometers from the school.


    It was ugly on the outside with almost no interior decoration, but it had one good point—it was a two-story detached old house with a rather spacious interior.


    The landlord was an old grandpa whose condition was an annual lease. However, after considering everything, including the deposit, a year’s rent was only 5,000 yuan.


    Luo Xi thought that with the money in his hands, it wouldn’t last long anyway, so it would be better to spend it.


    And so, he decisively rented the small building.


    After receiving Luo Xi’s money, the grandpa said with a smile, “Young man, you’ll need to take care of the water and electricity bills yourself from now on. I won’t bother you about that. If the house gets demolished someday, I will refund you the remaining rent and deposit.”


    Luo Xi thought to himself, no wonder the rent is so cheap; it’s because they’re waiting for demolition.


    “Thanks, grandpa.”


    “No need to thank me. I understand the difficulties you young people face. If you need anything, you can call me.”


    After the old man left, Luo Xi took the keys, entered the small building, and cleaned it up a bit.


    The stairs inside the small building were made of wood, creaking as he stepped on them, almost like in a haunted house.


    He ascended to the second floor and discovered that aside from an old and worn-out bed, there was also a terrace with many plants, but most of them were dead from lack of care.


    Luo Xi moved a stool out from the house and sat on the terrace, basking in the sunset as he started “Dawn” again.


    [Traveler, you are learning with the assistance of Aina…]


    [Would you like to speed up the process?]


    [Yes]


    Luo Xi couldn’t be bothered to wait, directly dragging it up to 30 times speed.


    With that drag, the sunset quickly fell, turning into a brightly lit night.


    [Ding! Basic Task: Knowledge Acquisition (Part One) has been completed]


    [Traveler, you now have a sufficient understanding of the basic knowledge of the Dream world, you have learned the universal language of the Dream world]


    [Reward has been distributed]


    Luo Xi suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head.


    But by the time he realized it, the pain had already faded away, and only his pulsating scalp continued to tell him the previous pain was not his illusion.


    Luo Xi took out the box that Wei’er had previously put in his travel bag and casually picked out a book.


    Its title was “Advanced Alchemy Theories.”


    He opened it and found,


    What the hell, some Otherworld version of advanced chemistry, totally incomprehensible.


    He picked out another book.


    Its title was “Introduction to Basic Skills and Basic Rune Drawing.”


    He opened it: some weird symbols, then snapped it shut instantly.


    Forget it, let’s not bother with these Otherworld books for now.


    [Traveler, you told Wei’er that she could take away her belongings]


    [Led by Cat Cat, you began stuffing things from their home into your Dreamland travel bag to then take to your own world]


    Luo Xi also quickly realized that he might not need to buy any furniture.


    Big boxes, small boxes, pots, pans, spatulas, cabinets, stools, chairs, sofas, all household items were accounted for.


    Even their large bed from the bedroom was moved in.


    To this, Luo Xi could only say well done… wait, was Cat Cat treating him like a moving company?


    Until two fully packed bags were taken out from his Dreamland travel bag.


    “Hmm? What’s inside here? It feels a bit soft?”


    Curious, Luo Xi opened the zipper of one bag to peek inside.


    A dried floral scent immediately wafted out from the bag, and it was somewhat pleasant to smell.


    Pure white lace dresses, semi-transparent lingerie, light nightgowns, and little plump…


    These were… the clothes of those two Lolitas with beast ears.


    Really, couldn’t you have just stuffed them into a wardrobe?


    Luo Xi quickly zipped the bag back up.


    My bad, my bad.


    Fortunately, Cat Cat didn’t know her things ended up on his side in reality, otherwise, she definitely wouldn’t have put such strongly personal items in there.


    [After you have gathered everything that could be put in the house, Wei’er finally handed you a box]


    [“That should be about it, keep this box for storing scrolls safe, you can retrieve it whenever needed, the rest is not important.”]


    [“After dinner, you can rest a bit, then, as it gets close to deep night, we’ll head into Winter City, find a place to hide until tomorrow after the fallout of the Origin Disaster passes, then we’ll leave Grey Stone Street.”]
