Guoyun Locke: Only I can see the spirit panel.

Chapter 3 Holding Hands! Could he be a fan of the "Kirikawa" fandom?!

[My friend, you simply don't understand how to love me, and now you're joining my world...]

After a while,

A flash of white light appeared in front of Tang Xueli, who was in the form of Little Locke, and Luo Ping'an's figure appeared out of thin air.

At that moment, she almost spat out the water in her mouth.

The live stream chat was flooded with comments.

[Holy crap, whose white-socked PE student is running around like that???]

[Dude, how can someone be this poor?]

Does being a buddy mean you can't be poor?

[As expected, the Tang Emperor's friend... is also a Tang Emperor!]

Does that mean the person manipulating this white-socked PE student is actually an absolute beauty?!

[Let it be Tang! Good looks are justice!]

【...】

Tang Xueli swallowed the water and typed, somewhat amused and exasperated:

"Are they really that poor?"

Luo Ping'an: "Life is unpredictable, like a large intestine wrapped around a small intestine~"

Tang Xueli didn't say anything more and simply extended her hand to him.

[Your friend, King Sydney, has invited you to hold hands. Will you accept?]

Luo Ping'an grasped that small hand without hesitation.

But this time, a different feeling welled up in my heart.

Why are this person's hands so soft?

Old Tang is a grown man; he can't possibly take care of his hands every day, can he?

Moreover, in the world of Roc Kingdom, the Roc characters are all created and maintained by the users themselves.

People who can spend so much energy and time usually have some special hobbies.

However, Luo Ping'an didn't ask the question.

Because I need to borrow money later, if I offend the person, they might not lend it to me.

Soon, Tang Xueli entered a UID into her friends list and found a Little Rocker named "[Elf's Home]".

Isn't this the merchant that's been all the rage online lately?

Holy crap! Apparently, they even sell eggs of the Winged Elf King in their store!

[Really? I've never even seen the Wing King in person!]

[Not just you, over 70% of Rocky's fans worldwide have never seen it in person.]

[That's an underestimate; I'd guess it's less than 80%.]

【...】

After he sent out his request to buy the elf, the other party accepted his friend request and brought Tang Xueli and Luo Pingan into his world.

The surrounding environment changed,

The first thing that catches the eye is a shop with a huge sign, and there are quite a few young Locke students coming and going inside, all of whom seem to be cramming for exams at the last minute.

"Let's go."

Tang Xueli led Luo Pingan into the lobby. After looking around casually, a man named Locke in work clothes came up to them.

"What would you like to buy, gentlemen? Our shop sells all kinds of Pokémon and Pokémon eggs, and we also have alchemy items like Goo-Goo Balls and Magic Dust on sale right now!"

Tang Xueli didn't speak, but looked directly at Luo Ping'an.

Seeing this, the shop owner understood who the customer was and began making recommendations:

"Are you preparing for tomorrow's college entrance exam? I can recommend a few Pokémon that are fast at traversing the map, such as..."

Luo Pingan raised his hand to interrupt:

Do you have kiwifruit here?

Shopkeeper:? ? ?

Tang Xueli: ? ? ?

Netizens: ???

【Uh, did I hear that right? He wants to buy kiwifruit?】

Is this some kind of niche, yet powerful, pet for traversing maps?

[You know what, the kiwi flower actually gets a speed boost when running on grass.]

[But there are just as many kiwis as stray dogs on the street! Why would I come here to buy them?]

[Maybe he's a die-hard fan of the Qilihua (奇丽花) character? Like those who like the Big Mushroom (大喷菇) character.]

Holy crap! That giant spore mushroom must have been awesome!

【...】

The shop owner paused for a moment, but maintained his polite smile.

"Honored guest, if you're exploring the map, we don't recommend buying the Qili Flower."

Luo Pingan shook his head.

"I don't want to explore the map, I want to buy the Qili Flower. Do you have it or not?"

Tang Xueli was stunned.

She initially thought Luo Ping'an lacked a pet for exploring the map, which was why she specifically came to the shop to buy a well-trained one.

So it wasn't for map exploration after all? Then why did he buy the Qili Flower?

The shop owner's dream of making a fortune was shattered, and his attitude towards Luo Ping'an became much more indifferent.

"Yes, all the Grass-type Pokémon are over there. You can choose one yourself."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Luo Ping'an didn't care about his attitude.

On the contrary, it's good that no one is bothering us with idle chatter.

They pulled Tang Xueli to the Grass-type area.

This is a large ecological park, much like the ecological research institute in a magic academy.

Luo Ping'an immediately spotted a group of Qilihua clan members.

At the same time, individual sprite panels, visible only to him, appeared before his eyes.

【Beautiful Flower · Lv44 · Reckless · None】

【Beautiful Flower · Lv38 · Clever · None】

【Chiliye·Lv28·Timid·None】

【...】

After looking for a long time, Luo Ping'an finally found the first one that met his requirements.

【Beautiful Flower · Lv37 · Peaceful · Loves to Share】

That's right,

To achieve fully automatic flower printing, the most important thing is to find a Qili flower or Qili leaf with a "sharing" personality, so that it can become a Qili money-printing machine.

Afterwards, Luo Pingan searched inside and out for a long time and finally managed to collect 5 Qilihua lineage members with a sharing personality.

"Alright, these five will do."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xueli immediately demanded that the shop owner pay the bill.

Upon seeing this, Luo Ping'an asked with some surprise:

"Aren't you going to ask me what I need them for?"

Tang Xueli's smile was very gentle.

"If you need me to know, I believe you will tell me."

These words not only flattered Luo Ping'an, but also made him feel incredibly honored.

This drove the viewers in the live stream even crazier.

Wow! Does Sherry value this friend that much? Their relationship must be something more than just friendship, right?

[I also think, could this be the Tang King's boyfriend?]

[Don't talk nonsense. Tang Wang herself described herself as a gloomy, unkempt girl who stayed at home during school and had very few female friends.]

You believe her just because she says so? This is a male Rockman, definitely not just an ordinary friend!

[Does creating a male Rock character necessarily mean he's male? Tang Wang himself created a short-haired, flat-chested and androgynous character, so what's so strange about a female Rock character?]

【...】

Luo Ping'an didn't think as much as netizens did.

He felt unconditionally trusted now, a feeling completely different from when he was betrayed by his girlfriend.

Moreover, he and this "Sydney King" have always only been online friends and have never met in person.

In that case, he should reciprocate with some benefits.

"Old Tang, do you have six 'Chili Leaf' or 'Chili Flower' plants in your warehouse?"

Tang Xueli silently counted in her mind.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Luo Ping'an stood in front of her, his eyes filled with utmost sincerity, and said:

"If you trust me, bring six kiwi leaves or kiwi flowers to me tomorrow during the college entrance exam, and I'll help you get a high score."

"Even if we don't get first place nationwide, we can at least break the record of our Jiangnan Province!"

With this remark,

The entire live stream chat exploded immediately.

But to everyone's surprise, Tang Xueli only thought about it for a moment before agreeing on the spot:

"I believe in you. I'll come as soon as the exam starts tomorrow."
