Rover Island (6)

"Because after the visit, their crops start blooming at a high rate. It happens during the first ten days."

'And today is the last day of the first ten days.' An Jiaxin calculated everything carefully.

"After today, there will come a horde of monsters swarming in from the southern direction of the village, and the monsters are said to be like grasshoppers. But they not only eat the crops, but also eat everything that comes in their way.I ncluding humans." Shi Xue creased her brows as she told them, it was uncomfortable to hear, even for herself.

"Many villagers lost their lives due to the attack of the monsters every year, but time seems to be repeating itself again and again."

"What happens after that?" An Jiaxin asked her eagerly, to understand the whole situation. 

"After the swarm, if a monster remains for ten days, they go away from here because of a sudden strong wave of air. And after that, the curse of God befall on them."

"Curse of god?"

"From their description that I heard, it seems that the next ten days there will be a drought all over the village. It will bring mass destruction to the whole village and their people."

Everything was clear to An Jiaxin by now as she remained silent, looking down towards the ground without replying back.

An Jiaxin was sure that the so-called demon was actually a swarm of locusts that evaluated and turned into man- eating locusts.

After they come here, they will probably eat away all the trees nearby in this village, causing the so-called god's curse, drought to befall them.

If so, then they had to take necessary measures for the upcoming war soon. 

And they need to take a countermeasure by today.

An Jiaxin stood up from the ground as she straightened her clothes, walking away from the girls.

"Hey, where are you running off too? We need to discuss how to stop the upcoming disaster!" The girls started yelling behind her as they saw her strange behavior. 

But An Jiaxin just waved at them without looking back as she said with a calm voice, "I'm off to take a rest."

"This girl! She is so strange and unpredictable that I never can tell what she is thinking." Shi Xue sighed as she smiled.

Jia Nan also smiled, "As long as she is happy and we are all safe before going back. I don't really mind, don't you think she is actually… kind of cute?"

"Haha! Exactly! This is what I'm telling ya!" Shi Xue laughed as she pointed at the girl before her as they continued chatting. 

"Mr. Mo, Where are you?" An Jiaxin ran towards the straw hut of Mo Xuan as she opened the door and ran inside. 

There was no time to spare and waste, because today was already the tenth day. They need to do everything by tonight.

But when she stormed inside and looked up, An Jiaxin got frozen on the spot, stopping herself from almost gasping as she covered her mouth with both hands.

"Gah! I'm sorry, Mr. Mo! I didn't mean to offend!" An Jiaxin turned around as she covered her eyes and yelled out after watching his half naked body, anyone can see that her ears and face were flushed with crimson red.

The water beads trickled down from his hair to his shoulders and down to his body, she could see the indifferent expression on his face though.

She could clearly see the lean body and abs engulfing his stomach, he had broad shoulders and a muscular body. But An Jiaxin wasn't aware of this fit body that much because he always wore loose clothes that hid his figures.

Though when he sweated, An Jiaxin saw and took a guess that he had a fit body.

Whoa! It's truly a crime to be this handsome!

Before she could regain her calm, An Jiaxin was cornered by the guy again as he looked at the girl who seemed like a frightened rabbit.

Cute!

'Hmm… should I tease her a little?'

With that in mind, Mo Xuan cornered her by the door side as he closed off their distance, leaning down with a smug expression. 

"What? Did I deliver a good quality? Where is your rating?"

"W-what? R-rating?" An Jiaxin's brain bursted when she smelled the faint scent of mint come closer, as she found herself to be cornered by him again.

"Ass@@##&%...!" Her face was red like blood dripping from within as she looked up at him with a meek expression, her head seemed to have become dizzy. 

"Why did you come here?" Mo Xuan asked her with a low, deep voice as he had his doubts.

Before, Mo Xuan was the one to go and pull her outside of her hut to train. She didn't come to his hut before.

That means, whatever she came here for… it was something urgent to be discussed. 

So Mo Xuan walked back as he leisurely went to the corner and took his shirt from the stand made by fench and wore it slowly.

"Why did you come here?"

An Jiaxin felt weak in her leg as they felt like jelly because of this sudden circumstance. She coughed as she cleared her throat, trying her best to forget what happened just now.

"Ahem, ahem! Em… Mr. Mo, I just found out something important about this round of the game." An Jiaxin's face was still flushed, but she tried her best not to look at him as she said the information in detail.

"So, I had some suggestions in my mind that maybe… can be of help?" An Jiaxin was fidgeting with her hands nervously as she asked Mo Xuan, looking up at him only to see that he was deep in thought.

From her details, Mo Xuan was now also aware what kind of disaster was coming up ahead. He also had some ideas about what they should do to overcome this, but he decided to hear An Jiaxin's side of story as well.
