Populus euphratica had a very terrifying nightmare.
In the dream, he was sucked into a dark and damp place, chased by a group of rotting headless corpses and a long-haired female ghost like Sadako.
He didn't sleep well that night. When he woke up in the morning, he was dizzy and had a large amount of cold sweat on his back.
"Strange... why the temperature feels so much lower..." As soon as he got out of bed, Hu Yang felt something was not right.
He glanced out the window. It was autumn when he first traveled through time, and now it has been a month. If he calculated carefully, it seemed that winter was about to begin.
It was normal for the temperature to drop suddenly during this season. Populus euphratica didn't think much about it, got dressed and took the two elves to the canteen for dinner.
When passing by the playground, he saw Nishida Go taking students to class.
Unlike him, Tsuyoshi Nishida is the teacher of the elf attribute class. In addition to explaining basic knowledge in the classroom, he also occasionally goes to the playground to give practical explanations.
Tsuyoshi Nishida: "What I want to say is that it is not absolute that attribute restraint will lead to victory in the battle. Through the command and cultivation of the trainer, it is possible to defeat the opponent even if attribute restraint exists."
As he spoke, his eyes drifted to Populus euphratica as he passed by: "Teacher Xiaoyang, can you come here for a moment?"
Hu Yang didn't know what he was going to do, but he still walked over and said speechlessly: "Didn't you agree that you can call me by this name?"
People in the elf world like to address others with the word "小", like Xiaozhi, Xiaogang, and Xiaoxia.
After getting to know him well, the school teacher tacitly changed his name from "Populus euphratica" to "Little Sheep".
Nishida Tsuyoshi chuckled and said, "It looks more friendly this way!"
Hu Yang: "...what's the matter with calling me over?"
Nishida Gang nodded and said: "That's right, I'm explaining the attribute restraint battle to them. I heard Lijia say that you just conquered a grass elf. Can you have an elf battle with me?"
As he spoke, he also took out a red and white ball, and as a white light flashed, a lobster soldier appeared beside him.
Hu Yang reminded expressionlessly: "You have been a trainer for seven or eight years, and I am still a newcomer."
Isn’t this bullying?
Nishida scratched his head in embarrassment: "Ah, I almost forgot about this, but don't worry, I just conquered this lobster soldier, and I haven't fought a few battles yet."
"This is okay." Hu Yang became interested, just in time to test the power of Mian Bao's moves.
The two stood at both ends of the practice field, and the students excitedly surrounded the field.
Xiaoyao shouted with anticipation: "Teacher Xiaoyang, come on!"
Under her leadership, other students also shouted loudly to cheer up, but the targets were all Populus euphratica.
Seeing this scene, Nishida's face turned dark and he said sadly: "Why doesn't anyone cheer for me?!"
"Teacher, you have many years of fighting experience, and Teacher Xiaoyang has just become a trainer. This is unfair!" Xiaoyao said, wagging his finger.
Nishida Tsuyoshi could not refute.
Hu Yang almost laughed out loud, but tried hard to suppress his laughter and said, "Can we start now?"
"Nini!" The shy little face was full of fighting spirit, and yesterday's delicious meal made her whole body full of strength.
"The rules of the battle are 1v1. Each person can only use one elf. The battle will not end until one of the elf loses the ability to fight!" Xiaoyao acted as a referee in a decent manner.
The battle officially began. Go Nishida decided to strike first and loudly ordered: "Lobster soldier, use foam!"
"Exactly!" The lobster soldier raised two large pliers, and suddenly a large piece of transparent bubbles flew out from them.
"Bashful bud, avoid to the left!" Although it was the first official elf battle, Hu Yang was not too nervous. Instead, he felt an unprecedented excitement in his body and calmly gave the order.
Bubble is a simplified version of bubble light. No matter the density or the speed of flying in mid-air, it cannot compare with bubble light.
Before they fly over, the mimosa has enough time to avoid them by moving.
Nishida just saw his intention and continued the pursuit: "Lobster soldier, rush over and use clamp!"
Populus euphratica: "Use paralysis powder forward!"
"just!"
"Ni!"
The little lobster soldier ran over, and the shy bud made a sound of exertion. The light yellow powder spread from the bud on its head, surrounding the little lobster soldier.
"just?!"
The lobster soldier's body stiffened and he couldn't move.
"Seed bomb!" Upon seeing this, Populus euphratica quickly launched a pursuit.
"Ni!"
A huge green seed condensed on the bud of the shy bud, and under its control, it smashed straight towards the paralyzed lobster soldier.
As expected, a precise hit.
As the name of this move indicates, the moment it hits, an explosion occurs instantly.
Hit the mark!
"just!"
The lobster soldier let out a cry of pain. Perhaps because of its insufficient resistance, it did not recover from the paralysis.
As soon as Xitian saw this scene, he suddenly felt unable to breathe.
Populus euphratica also immediately pursued: "One more seed bomb!"
As expected, the seed bomb with twice the weight of water directly knocked the lobster soldier out of combat capability.
"Ni!"
The shy bae happily threw itself into the arms of Populus euphratica, it had defeated the enemy!
It has always been the defeated party in the wild, not only Populus euphratica, this is actually the first time it has won!
The joy of victory does make people happy.
"You did a great job! Let's keep working together in the future!" Hu Yang praised without hesitation.
"Teacher, there is no way to win a battle with attribute restraint, right?" a student asked.
Xitian just took back the lobster soldiers, said thank you for your hard work, and then showed an embarrassed smile:
"Your teacher Xiaoyang is too powerful, but as I said before, it is still possible to win in a battle with reverse attributes."
Hu Yang also said: "Your teacher is right, attribute restraint is not absolute. When you embark on your journey in the future, you will definitely encounter this kind of battle."
"However, as long as you know and trust your companions well enough, carefully observe your opponent's movements during the battle, and make good predictions, you still have a chance to win."
Hu Yang analyzed the difference between the foam of the lobster soldier and the foam light just now.
If the Lobster Soldier had just used a foam light, Mimosaurus would have been unable to avoid it. After being hit, Tsuyoshi Nishida would have immediately launched a pursuit and let the Lobster Soldier get closer. In that case, the result might have been different.
"Is this so?" Xiaoyao murmured in thought, and after a moment, his eyes showed a light of admiration: "We remember it!"
Xi Tian just touched Hu Yang with his arm and whispered: "Why do I think you are more suitable to be their combat class teacher than me... Why don't I make a suggestion to the principal later?"
Hu Yang: "...I think ecology class teacher is more suitable for me." There are few classes and he has plenty of personal time.
"Okay then." Nishida Gang said.
Hu Yang: "I'm leaving. I have classes later, so I'll leave this place to you."
He slipped away, he was going to do radio gymnastics with Mianbao.
————
After a day of classes, Populus euphratica returned to the dormitory with Guyueniao and Mianbaeth.
As soon as he entered the house, he couldn't help but shuddered and said to Xianbao: "Do you feel that it is much colder at home than outside?"
He didn't realize it before going out in the morning, but now when he compared it, it was obvious that something was wrong.
Mian Bao frowned and nodded: "Ni..."
What's going on?
Hu Yang stood in the living room and looked around. Is there anything different at home?
If the only difference is that there is one more thing.
Thinking about it, his eyes locked on the dark purple orb placed on the desk.
Hu Yang stepped forward and took it in his hand.
As soon as I touched it, I immediately felt a clear chill.
It seems that the problem really lies here.
The name of this orb is "The Cursed Orb"
He couldn't help but think of the strangeness between the nightmare he had last night and the adventurer.
Is it also related to this thing?
Hu Yang narrowed his eyes. If there was a problem, the adventurer must have run away by now, and it would be impossible to find him.
In order to verify whether this thing was causing him nightmares, before going to bed, he took the thing outside, dug a hole in a deserted place, and buried it.
He originally thought that tonight would be a peaceful night, but when he opened his eyes the next day, he saw the strange orb again on the desk.
"It is indeed a curse..." Thinking back to the nightmare he had last night, Hu Yang finally understood why this thing was called this name.
