Chapter 9: Competence

"Ah.........h Xiu screamed as he rubbed his hair.

"Repair, hair...... Want...... Nope. Aiden protested helplessly.

Xiu, who was in Lily's room, gradually became impatient after seeing Lily being wiped off, and her way of venting was ...... Bitter Aiden.

Xiu finally got tired and sat back in the chair he had been sitting in at the beginning, while Aiden took the opportunity to take out an air cushion comb out of nowhere and began to comb his hair according to his feelings.

Hearing the voice, Xiu turned his head to look at Aiden, feeling angry and funny.

"Aren't you worried at all?" Xiu looked at Aiden, who was combing his hair, and asked softly.

Aiden put down the comb, nodded, and shook his head again.

"What do you mean?" Xiu asked with a slight frown.

"Worried, but...... It didn't work, I ...... Choose...... Trust her. Aiden looked directly at the place where Lily had disappeared, and further in front of Lily's desk was the window, just as John had since disappeared, and there was only darkness outside the window that no light could shine through.

Xiu felt that Aiden had a point, but she was still very disturbed, so she screamed again and continued to rub Aiden's hair.

"It shouldn't be like this." Lily frowned and thought as she watched the charge and fight between the red and blue armies, thinking about where the discord she felt came from.

The red soldiers were holding shovel-like things, the blue soldiers were holding hammer-like things, and only the two armies were still riding tall horses behind the generals, who were armed with long swords.

A scene that made Lily creepy suddenly appeared, and the red and blue soldiers who were fighting suddenly stopped their movements as if they had pressed the pause button, stopped fighting, and looked up at her in unison.

Inexplicable fear swept through Lily's entire thoughts.

Then, Lily only felt her mind explode, shattered and shattered.

But she seemed to look at herself at the same time from hundreds of thousands of different angles from those thousands of fragments, which was a feeling that was difficult to describe in words, after all, there were suddenly many more visions in the field of vision, and these countless visions were all looking directly at herself in the air.

The brain finally activated its self-protection program due to the excessive stimulation, and after a grunt, Lily fainted again. But Lily immediately felt her consciousness being pulled to a strange place, and then it was divided into millions of parts, so that although her body was unconscious, she still had a roughly lucid mind.

Two of them jumped out and fell to the battlefield in the distance, landing on the basket and red helmets of the generals of the red and blue armies who had just arrived at the front of the team, and slowly infiltrated them.

Then, more of her consciousness followed, and then landed on top of the soldiers on the battlefield in the distance.

Lily's mind couldn't help but think of what she had just seen, the two generals would march out on horseback, then draw their swords and swing forward.

Then the consciousness of the two "shes" really acted like this, just as Lily saw at the beginning.

Then, the rest of her consciousness rushed out with her weapon in hand, and launched a death-defying charge.

Well, it seems that they will not die, because Lily "we" found that the weapons in their hands are made of rubber, and they are not lethal at all.

One of the "shes" suddenly thought of looking up at themselves in the sky, and then, all the "shes" stopped their movements and fights, and looked up at themselves in the air together.

A melodious bell reverberated between heaven and earth again, accompanied by a strange syllableβ€”falsehood.

It's an old name, but Lily doesn't have a chance to know it for the time being.

When she opened her eyes, the dim light immediately jumped into Lily's eyes, followed by Xiu and Aiden's close-up concerned eyes.

"It's close!" Lily suddenly reached out and pushed the faces of the two of them, and the two of them ...... It's almost kissed directly!

"It seems...... It's okay...... Aiden rubbed the right side of his face that had been pushed by Lily, and went back to his seat.

Xiu Ze quickly took Lily's hand, looked left and right, and even looked to see if there were any scars on the skin under Lily's clothes.

"Wait...... Xiu, wait, I'm fine. "Lily was so retouched that she couldn't even speak properly.

Xiu stopped moving, scratched his face a little embarrassed, and went back to sit on the stool.

Xiu and Aiden sat in a row again, their backs straight, waiting for Lily to speak.

Lily didn't rush to speak, but slowly reflected on her experience, and after two or three minutes, Lily almost collected her thoughts and patted her cheek gently.

"I think I can probably understand why John didn't tell us what he was going through, and I'm sorry to tell you that I can't say either."

Xiu was in a hurry, and waved his right hand to find some words for himself.

Aiden waited quietly for Lily's next step, and Shunbai pressed Xiu's hand down and grabbed it in his palm.

Seeing this scene, Lily glanced at the two thoughtfully, without delay, and continued:

"I have a hunch that if I tell you what I experienced in 'that world,' it will have extremely bad consequences...... So I guess it's for that reason that John deceived us. ”

After Aiden and Xiu understood, Lily continued, "But there is good news for you - I have also gained some 'abilities', although they seem to be two completely different types from John. ”

After listening to this, Aiden let go of the hand that was holding Xiu, and took out a small notebook and a pen from nowhere, looking like he wanted to listen to the lecture and take notes.

Xiu also looked like I was listening carefully.

If memory serves, John has become more powerful, can run and jump faster, and barely sleeps at night...... Xiu doesn't want Lily to be like that, staying up late is the natural enemy of beauty!

"To borrow Ander's description, if John is a 'power type,' then my ability is a 'agility type.'" Lily smiled and gave Xiu and Aiden a brief overview, borrowing from Ender's endless game terminology.

"Aiden also read John's diary this afternoon, right? I don't see the kind of golden square words that John said. Lily winked at Aiden, and then she continued:

"But I can feel my body become lighter, my fingers seem to be more flexible, and I am now confident to play the piano on the third floor."

"The body has become lighter?" Xiu was a little puzzled by Lily's description and looked Lily up and down...... Nothing has changed, Lily is still Lily.

Lily thought for a moment, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she motioned for Aiden and Xiu to make room for her to come out.

When Xiu and Aiden were on both sides of the room, Lily took a light breath, then ran a little, and then reached out again, and directly in front of Aiden and Xiu, she lightly and elegantly did a one-handed support front flip.

Xiu looked stupid.

Aiden's pen also fell to the ground.
