Chapter 424: He's Crazy Laboratory
"..."
"So Feiying took the initiative to pursue the Rift Gate, and now you have become the Master of All Machines in the Mechanical City, the mechanical fairy born from humans?"
After listening to the series of shocking events that had happened to Jasmine during this period, Violet's tone was filled with a hint of disbelief and solemnity.
She really didn't expect that such a dramatic change would happen in such a short time of separation.
On the virtual screen, Jasmine nodded slightly, a complicated expression on her face.
"Well, that's pretty much what it means."
There was a sense of helplessness and responsibility in Jasmine's tone.
"Now the entire Mechanical City has become a ruin and requires large-scale reconstruction."
She continued to explain her current situation.
"As a mechanical fairy, my combat capabilities largely depend on the prosperity of the Mechanical City."
Jasmine rubbed her temples, looking a little tired.
"So now I have to devote most of my energy to the reconstruction of the mechanical ruins, and I may not be able to return to the academy for a while."
Hearing what Jasmine said, Xiao Bailian immediately responded.
“No need to come back!”
There was a firm support in Xiao Bailian's tone.
"Since you have important matters to take care of over there, just focus on your business."
Her expression grew more serious.
"As for Feiying's matter, you don't have to worry about it at all."
Xiao Bailian continued to comfort Jasmine.
"The Snow Country's official supernatural organization, the Frost Covenant, has recently achieved a breakthrough in its research into the Rift."
There was a confidence in her tone.
"They have found a way to stay in the Rift for a longer period of time without attracting the attention of the Scourge Beasts."
There was a look of determination in Xiao Bailian's eyes.
"If we have the opportunity to enter the Rift Realm, we will definitely look for Feiying's whereabouts."
After hearing Xiao Bailian's promise, Jasmine finally showed a relieved smile on her face.
"I feel relieved with the principal's words."
Jasmine's expression was noticeably more relaxed. "Although that little girl Feiying can be naughty at times, she's always been very resilient. I believe she can survive. After all, she's very strong, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
Speaking of this, Jasmine seemed to remember something important.
"By the way, hasn't our academy always wanted to establish a branch?"
There was a hint of excitement in Jasmine's tone.
"I suggest that the first branch be established in the Mechanical City."
She continued to explain her thoughts in detail.
"Although the Mechanical City is indeed a ruin now, it looks very miserable."
Jasmine's expression became more confident.
"But as I become the Lord of All Things, this city will gradually return to its former glory."
There was anticipation in her eyes.
"And I also discovered that there are actually many precious resources in the Mechanical City that can be recycled and reused."
Jasmine continued to analyze the potential of the Mechanical City.
"However, the development of these resources requires the special authority of me, the Lord of All Machines."
Her tone became more positive.
"So when the reconstruction work is almost complete, I can provide the academy with more resources and strong support."
After hearing what Jasmine said, Xiao Bailian's eyes suddenly lit up, and an expression of surprise that was difficult to conceal appeared on her face.
This is the perfect time to get what you need!
She was currently worried about the academy's funding, but her outstanding students had inherited an entire civilized country in the blink of an eye.
It is also a city of machinery with highly advanced technology!
If the advanced mechanical life and technology on the mechanical ruins can be transformed into actual productive forces and used reasonably, wouldn't that be equivalent to having an endless cash cow?
Will the academy still lack financial support by then?
This is obviously a perfect opportunity for someone to give you a pillow when you are sleepy!
Realizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Xiao Bailian was so excited that she almost knelt down to express her gratitude to Jasmine on the spot.
"Jasmine!"
Xiao Bailian's voice was filled with excitement: "From now on, you are the student council president of our academy, and you will also serve as the director of the Mechanical City branch!"
Her tone became especially warm and sweet.
"Please give your all to rebuild the Mechanical City. The future of the academy depends on you!"
On the side, seeing Xiao Bailian's passionate and excited attitude change, Violet couldn't help but cover her forehead.
He was clearly furious about his family not providing funding just a second ago, but after confirming the situation on Jasmine's side, he immediately became completely different.
How could she not see Xiao Bailian's true thoughts?
After realizing this, Violet couldn't help but speak up to persuade him.
"Principal, please restrain yourself a little..."
There was a helpless reminder in Violet's tone.
"It's fine to take away your family's gold coins, but taking away students' gold coins..."
There was a hint of worry in her words, and she obviously felt that Xiao Bailian's actions were a bit excessive.
Xiao Bailian didn't care at all when she heard Violet's advice.
"What does it matter..."
Xiao Bailian's tone was relaxed, as if this was not a big problem at all.
"It's not like Jasmine would mind, right Jasmine?"
She turned directly to Jasmine in the light curtain for support.
Faced with Xiao Bailian's direct question, Jasmine forced a somewhat forced smile.
Although she may have some complicated thoughts in her heart, she chose to cooperate on the surface.
"of course."
Jasmine tried to keep her tone calm.
"With great power comes great responsibility."
She paused, then continued.
"But I still hope that the elementary school principal will not forget to look for Feiying's whereabouts."
There was a sense of expectation and request in Jasmine's tone.
Hearing Jasmine's response, Xiao Bailian immediately patted his chest and made a promise.
"Don't worry, don't worry!"
Xiao Bailian's tone was full of confidence.
"Your principal is doing something, so why don't you let him go..."
Halfway through her speech, Xiao Bailian suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Wait...what did you just call me?"
There was a note of alarm and dissatisfaction in her voice.
Facing Xiao Bailian's questioning, Jasmine did not say anything to explain.
She just smiled softly and then decisively cut off the communication connection.
The light curtain disappeared in an instant, leaving the frustrated Xiao Bailian sulking there alone.
Xiao Bailian, who hated it most when people added the word "xiao" before the principal's name, felt very angry.
"Damn it! After becoming fairies, everyone grows wings."
Xiao Bailian muttered softly, her tone full of dissatisfaction.
"How dare you hang up on me!"
She was obviously very upset with Jasmine's behavior.
After saying these complaints, Xiao Bailian turned around and looked at Ziluo Lan beside her.
"Violet, you won't hang up on me, will you?"
There was a tentative tone in Xiao Bailian's voice, and she obviously wanted to get a guarantee from Violet.
Faced with Xiao Bailian's inexplicable question, Violet felt speechless.
"Principal, shouldn't we dwell on this issue now?"
There was a reminder in Violet's tone, she felt that Xiao Bailian's focus had strayed somewhat from the right track.
Hearing Violet's response, Xiao Bailian crossed her arms over her chest and made a somewhat arrogant gesture.
"I just asked casually."
Xiao Bailian curled her lips, obviously dissatisfied with Violet's reaction.
But soon, her expression gradually became serious.
"Okay, regardless of whether Mom is willing to give out gold coins or not, and regardless of the situation with Jasmine."
Xiao Bailian's tone became firm.
"Now we all have to go to the Frost Covenant headquarters and officially begin the exploration of the Rift Gate according to our original plan."
With that, Xiao Bailian and Violet walked out of the Bingxue Bai family's mansion together.
The two soon arrived at the headquarters building of the Frost Covenant.
This is a magnificent building, surrounded by layers of strict guards.
Not long after passing through the heavy security, a tall girl suddenly jumped out from somewhere in the shadows.
She hugged Xiao Bailian's head directly with such great force that Xiao Bailian was completely unable to break free.
"Lianlian! Long time no see, I miss my aunt so much!"
The tall girl's tone was filled with passion and longing.
The petite Xiao Bailian was hugged tightly by the other party and could not move at all.
She was squeezed by the other person's chest and could hardly breathe.
"Ugh! Men...quickly...let go!"
Xiao Bailian made intermittent cries for help, obviously feeling uncomfortable with this overly enthusiastic hug.
It was not until the tall girl finally let go of Xiao Bailian that Xiao Bailian began to breathe in the fresh air frantically.
After catching her breath, she spoke angrily.
"Iced Camellia!"
There was obvious dissatisfaction and protest in Xiao Bailian's voice.
"I've told you so many times! I'm not a child anymore!"
She continued angrily:
"Can you please give me some face in front of my students?"
Xiao Bailian was obviously very embarrassed and dissatisfied with being treated like a child in public.
Hearing Xiao Bailian's protest, Camellia showed an even happier smile on her face.
She obviously enjoyed teasing her niece.
"But in my aunt's eyes, no matter how old Lianlian is, she is still a child."
There was a clear hint of teasing in Camellia's tone.
"And look at how angry you are. Don't you look like an angry child?"
She continued adding fuel to the fire.
Hearing what Camellia said, Xiao Bailian's face turned red instantly.
From the outside, it was obvious that she was very angry.
"You...you..."
Xiao Bailian was so angry that she couldn't even finish her words.
Her hands were clenched into fists and her whole body was shaking slightly.
"I'm really not a child anymore!"
Xiao Bailian tried desperately to defend herself.
Seeing her niece looking so angry, Camellia obviously felt happier.
Her smile grew even brighter, and her eyes revealed a sense of satisfaction at having pulled off a successful prank.
But she had no intention of continuing to tease him.
After all, there is still important business to do today.
