Douluo 2: Miss Noumenon wants to be the ultimate villain

Qingli stayed in the house for three days without leaving, and the house was already filled with smoke...

It was Xu He’s soul skill—the spirit-boosting thick cigar.

This is truly a first-rate soul skill. After using it, Qingli's efficiency in making soul guides increased by a full one-fifth, saving her a lot of time.

Xu He's other martial spirit that Qing Li didn't know about finally explained to Qing Li why she hadn't found Xu He.

"It's you, teacher." Qingli smiled obediently.

But she didn't look very good. She hadn't washed herself for three days, and her body was covered with metal debris. The whole room was filled with smoke...

Xuan Lao was already drunk, and now he had a headache because of the smoke. "How dare you laugh? I haven't been home for three days, and you just lifted the roof of my house?"

"Teacher, I think you are the one with a problem," Qing Li analyzed the condition to Master Xuan very seriously, "You have been hanging out with a lot of people these days, can't you stand it? So you hid yourself and drank heavily for three days in a row? You are sick and need treatment."

Yan Shaozhe was right, Mr. Xuan was indeed ill, but he was not mentally ill.

Old Xuan never lied to Qingli from the beginning. Since they were both rats in the gutter, how could he be a normal person?

Xuanzi looked like he had a terminal illness and that was it, so what? "Oh, then you can prescribe some medicine for me, and let's see who is more of a quack, you or Lao Zhuang."

Qing Li was too lazy to pay attention to him, but she suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she invited Master Xuan to walk into her soul guide laboratory.

As soon as Master Xuan came in, he frowned, "You have the nerve to let me in this doghouse of yours."

The floor was filled with parts and metals in a mess, and on the table were piles of drawings...

Qingli brought Xuan Lao to the forging table, on which was placed the half-forged metal. She asked Xuan Lao to take a look and said, "Teacher, do you think it is possible to make it smaller and denser?"

This is a silver-scale chip. Although it has excellent ductility, the core formation that Qingli wants to carve requires metal that is more sophisticated and can withstand the infusion of more soul power.

Qingli tried to add metals with other properties into the silver-scale wafer to meet her own needs, but she always felt that the two were not integrated very well.

The technology of smelting alloys is also very important. Qingli understands some of the technologies of the Sun and Moon Empire, but she cannot use them. The problem on Shrek's side is that it does not have more sophisticated equipment for smelting.

Xuan Lao was now mostly sober, and he looked seriously at the palm-sized silver metal on the platform, "Hit it a few times and let me see."

Qing Li easily picked up the heavy silver hammer beside him - the telescope, swung it a few times in his hand, and then began to hit the metal frantically.

Qing Li also has her own unique smelting technique. She doesn't need bellows to control the temperature. The metals in the Extreme Lightning Superposition Telescope are like plasticine in her hands.

The whole room was shaking when the hammer struck. Elder Xuan looked at Qing Li's skinny little arms swinging the hammer continuously and asked curiously, "Your hammer is not light, is it? Isn't it a pity to use such a good material as deep sea silver only to make a casting hammer?"

Qing Li complained in his heart, it wouldn't be a bigger waste if you had the crystal gold and used it for the assessment instead.

However, Qing Li was too lazy to complain because she had something important to do. After putting away the hammer, she immediately asked, "You should be able to feel that I can hit the gap between the alloys very accurately, but that gap seems to be the barrier between the metals. It will move to the other side by itself. When I hit one end, it will move to the other end. So can this piece of metal be made smaller?"

"I saw what you said." Old Xuan waved his hand lightly, and the piece of metal was in his hand.

What does I saw it? mean?

"How small do you want it?"

"one fifth?"

"At times like this, you have to rely on absolute strength to lock any part of the metal at the same time. Even if the gap runs, there will be nowhere to escape."

In Old Xuan's hands, the metal began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Qing Li could feel the pressure around the metal. It took her two full days to smelt a piece of metal as big as a human head into its current size, but the other person did it in an instant.

"Teacher, you are much more useful than I thought." Qing Li exclaimed.

"You..." This should be an insult, but Old Xuan still held it back. Old Mu also reminded him that since he has become someone's teacher, he should be a little more careful with his words.

So, he quickly suppressed his anger and asked a question that a teacher should be concerned about, "You are not participating in the fighting spirit competition?"

"Yes." Qing Li also learned the roguery of Master Xuan. "Didn't you tell me to do whatever I want? As your disciple, do I need to choose? You can just quietly insert it for me. I have something else to do these few days. I will go to training as soon as it's over."

This year, the original plan for selecting reserve members was to wait for the children under the age of 16 in the inner courtyard to come back after completing this supervision mission.

Because the preliminary team is actually selecting players for the next Fighting Spirit Competition, it should have been selected from the outer courtyard.

However, due to many unexpected events in this fighting spirit competition, such as the two-year postponement, the large number of children of the inner courtyard disciples of the right age,

Combining all these mixed factors together, Qingli could probably guess that those who would be chosen would be her classmates.

Xuan Lao couldn't help himself after all, "Did I mean that? Just do it."

After saying that, he slammed the door and was about to leave. "By the way, teacher, I have one more thing I want to ask you for help with."

Three days later——

"I advise you to give me some face later, otherwise I can't afford to lose face."

Two people were walking on the path in the inner courtyard, one old and one young, one tall and one short, and they were the unreconciled master and apprentice duo.

At this moment, the new and old team members in the inner courtyard are still training intensively for the Fighting Spirit Competition in a month. They don’t know yet that Shrek’s big and small demon kings are coming.

As soon as Qingli arrived, he saw the selected reserve players. They were all familiar faces, and even among the regular players there were people Qingli had seen before.

Many people in the reserve team showed hostility towards Qingli. After all, they didn't put in much effort in the previous election.

Many people were relieved that Qingli was not there. She probably came back to take their place.

The seven members of the reserve team will be given the title of Shrek Seven Devils, and will appear as the main team in the next Fighting Spirit Competition. Who would be willing to give up such an opportunity?

Qing Li looked at the seven people with a smile, "I am not here to take away your position as the Shrek Seven Devils. I am here to be your captain."

The seven members of the reserve team looked at each other, none of them really understanding what Qingli meant. There were also many people competing for the position of captain, and Ma Xiaotao was tentatively chosen.

As the youngest in the inner courtyard, they don’t think Qingli can defeat Ma Xiaotao head-on and become their new captain.

Qing Li's purpose was just the superficial meaning of her words. She did not participate in the election for the reserve team, not because she had boarded Master Xuan's big ship and started to bully others.

Rather, she didn't want to be one of the Shrek Seven Devils, but she also wanted to be the captain who led everyone. This position was crucial to her next actions.

At this moment, Zhang Lexuan, the captain of the main team, spoke up, "It's not like there has never been an eighth player in the Shrek reserve team, but you were not present on the day of the selection. Let alone being the captain, even if you join as a player, you have to convince everyone."

Zhang Lexuan is worthy of being the eldest sister of the inner courtyard. She is very capable of winning people’s hearts when doing things. At the same time, she also believes in Qingli’s ability, so she gave her a chance.

"What Senior Sister said is true," Qing Li said calmly to the seven members of the reserve team, "If I want you to voluntarily let me join the team and become the captain, I have to convince you, so I plan to fight with the seven of you."

"Follow the seven of us?" Yao Haoxuan was somewhat surprised by what the seemingly gentle girl in front of him said, "How do we fight?"

"Let's fight together. I'll be one, and you seven."

"You want to fight seven alone?" Xixi was no longer shocked, she thought Qingli was being arrogant!

"That's pretty much the same idea."

Master Xuan was drinking happily, because he knew that his disciple would always take action when necessary and would never embarrass him.

Chen Zifeng walked out from the crowd, "I accept your challenge!"

"I have no objection to you being the captain, so I will give up participating in this battle." At this moment, someone stood up and, contrary to his usual behavior, took the initiative to give up challenging Qingli.
