Gamers Are Fierce-Chapter 789 - 787 Peace

*"The sun shines bright in the sky, the flowers smile at me, the little birds say, 'Morning, morning, morning,' why do you carry a little backpack?"*

In the early morning, "Li Ang," dressed in a blue and white school uniform, carrying a backpack, riding a bicycle, and humming the tune of a children's song, weaved through the city streets.

He wore two Bluetooth earphones, his right hand grasping the bicycle's handlebars, his left holding a half-eaten seaweed rice ball, taking a bite every so often.

Ah, freedom. Freedom.

"Li Ang," or rather Miss Chai disguised in a Puppet Outer Garment, traveled along the tree-lined road. She took a deep breath of the fresh air, laced with the scent of grass and trees, her face reflecting a content and peaceful expression.

This was the first time she had walked freely in the real world in her physical form, without having to consider battles or anomalies.

The river reflecting the morning sunlight, the lively and bustling cityscape, every flower, blade of grass, and tree—all gave her the sensation of being alive again. It was so different from the world she had come to know through networks.

The bicycle smoothly turned a corner and traveled a certain distance.

Through the circle of tall camphor trees planted along the road, one could vaguely see the high-rise buildings of the campus in the distance and hear the sound of recitations echoing from the school.

Another… ten minutes.

Chaichai glanced at Li Ang's watch on her left wrist and slightly quickened her pedaling.

In front of the school gate, some parents' cars were parked, having brought their children to school; among them were many luxury cars. Behind the electronic gate at the entrance stood two rows of eight students on duty, responsible for greeting the teachers.

Chaichai glanced at the school scene, her peripheral vision sweeping over the surveillance camera beside the electric gate, carefully hiding the curiosity and wariness in her eyes.

"Lady Saint, there are no prying eyes around you; all is normal."

The very low and faint voice of the Brain Worm arose directly within her chest, blocked by the Puppet Diaphragm, muscles, and skin, preventing it from reaching the outside, audible only to Miss Chai.

No prying eyes, huh...

Chaichai secretly breathed a sigh of relief and slowly cycled toward the gate.

Just as she was about to dismount from her bicycle and push it to the bike shed like the other students when entering the campus, at the moment she was about to press the brake, she suddenly remembered that she was Li Ang now; it would be impossible for her to do something so normal.

So...

Chaichai's eyes hardened. The moment she passed the gate, she slightly leaned back, shifted her center of gravity backward, and pulled up the bicycle's front wheel, lifting it off the ground and balancing on the rear wheel alone.

Then, she spun the handlebars fiercely.

She let go with both hands and finished the last bite of the rice ball. Then, she grabbed the plastic bag that had wrapped it, scrunched it into a ball, and, like a basketball player, tossed the garbage bag backward, accurately landing it in the narrow entrance of the trash bin a few meters away.

Finally, she leaned forward, letting the front wheel smash down with a BANG, stabilizing the quickly spinning handlebars.

This acrobatic-like, flashy maneuver did not stir up much of a commotion.

The gatekeeper was unfazed. The high school underclassmen on duty had an expression of *seeing is believing*. Only the parents who came to drop off their children let out surprised exclamations, as if they had never seen anything like it before.

This was Li Ang's daily routine; a beautiful day that started with antics at the school entrance.

Having completed the imitation, Chaichai quietly breathed a sigh of relief, her expression still calm and collected.

She parked the bicycle in the bike shed, adjusted her backpack, and headed towards the academic building Li Ang had mentioned.

Through the shaded path, past the Stone Bridge over the pond, Chaichai suppressed the urge to look around curiously and ambled forward.

"Li Ang."

A male teacher walking towards her with a stack of papers suddenly called out Li Ang's name. Chaichai jolted internally and looked up.

The teacher stopped, smiled, and said, "How are your reviews going? The upcoming end-of-term exams are a joint examination with eighteen schools; you have to bring glory to our school and our grade."

Who is this now?

Caught off guard, Chaichai let out an "Ah" as she racked her brain, trying to recall the list of faculty members from Experimental High School that Li Ang had shown her the day before.

"That's the Benevolent Father's Dean of Academics; Senior Year Two's Teacher Prince Lu."

From within the puppet's chest cavity, the Brain Worm's faint prompting voice sounded.

To infiltrate smoothly, Li Ang had shown the Brain Worm and Chaichai the school data yesterday. With its photographic memory, the Brain Worm naturally remembered all of the Benevolent Father's instructions.

Senior Year Two's Teacher Prince Lu? Who calls themselves 'Prince' these days? And he doesn't even look handsome?

A trace of doubt flashed through Chaichai's mind, but she still obediently nodded. "Don't worry, Teacher Lu, I will certainly live up to expectations and score high marks..."

No sooner had the words left her mouth, Chaichai felt something was amiss—

The smile on the teacher's face had frozen.

What's going on? Did he spot my flaw?! Was it the skin on my forehead that had split open?!

A sudden shock ran through Chaichai's heart, but then she heard the voice of the Brain Worm from within her chest cavity, "Lady Saint, it's not 'Senior Year Two Prince, Teacher Lu.' It's 'Senior Year Two, Teacher Prince Lu'..."

Ah, this.

Chaichai's breath hitched. After a momentary hesitation, she immediately decided to rectify the slip-up, thinking to herself:

Right arm: enter combat hunting mode. Activate automatic targeting. Prepare Special Effect hypnotic anesthetic needle for mammalian targets. Target: Prince Lu.

Infection Worm: in position. Extend the neural parasitic lancet. Mimicry Worms No. 1, No. 3, and No. 5: in position, ready to replace and take over if the infiltrator's identity is compromised.

High-altitude Patrol Insect Soldier Squads 'Swift Swallow,' 'Dark Raven,' 'Willow Warbler,' and 'Sparrow': disengage biological camouflage. Implement control in the airspace over the Experimental High School. If necessary, use lethal measures on any threatening targets.

Behemoth's Bug Nest Fleet: awaken. After a 2-minute delay, strategically deploy non-toxic miasma sacs over the coast of Yin City to attract the attention of the Special Affairs Bureau.

The fingers of "Li Ang's" left hand dangled naturally, their tips opening a tiny hole, emitting an invisible, intangible pheromone without any scent.

In the sewers of the Experimental High School, an Infection Worm with a huge abdomen stood up from the sewage.

Its scorpion-like tail rose, the lancet at its tip slowly probing through the cracks of the sewer manhole cover, targeting Prince Lu.

Around the Infection Worm, three caterpillar-like Mimicry Worms materialized, their surfaces undulating constantly. Their elastic green skin swiftly twisted and transformed, changing color, imitating Prince Lu's facial features, physique, and even the clothes he was wearing.

And high above, a flock of ordinary birds flying by each grew a tiny eyeball on their abdomens, concealed beneath their feathers, overlooking the entire Experimental High School from a high vantage point.

"Lady Saint! Stay calm!"

The Brain Worm's voice sounded with a hint of panic. "Don't be impulsive, everything can be fixed!"

As if she hadn't heard anything, Chaichai continued to maintain an awkward smile. Below the manhole cover, the Infection Worm gradually contracted its tail muscles, ready to shoot the neural parasitic lancet at Prince Lu's neck at any moment...

"Alright, fine."

Teacher Prince Lu, who had not noticed anything happening, helplessly waved his hand. "It's good to have that confidence. Go to class."

The puppet's fingertip suddenly stopped releasing pheromones. The Infection Worm silently withdrew its neural parasitic lancet. The Mimicry Worms gradually returned to their original forms, shrinking in size and clinging to the stone wall above the sewer.

The four High-altitude Patrol Insect Soldier Squads also retracted their tiny eyeball detection organs.

All was calm, all was safe.

"Okay. Goodbye, Teacher."

"Li Ang" nodded and walked steadily towards the academic building.
