Under the threatening glare of the Room Fire Pig, Ning Yue quickly cowered. He still remembered the heroic posture of this little pig when it fought various divine statues.
Although this little black pig, no, no, no, now it's a colorful little pig, is only as big as a volleyball, its combat power is formidable, and he can't afford to provoke it.
"Alright! I won't argue with you, I need to hurry to school."
"No! Take me to eat first!"
"Where do I have the money to buy you food? Anyway, it's a free meal, you can just pick any street to eat. Remember to run fast after you're full, don't get caught, or I won't be able to save you."
The Room Fire Pig hesitated for a moment, nodded its round little head, and said, "That's right! I can find my own food without you. Who can catch me? I can burn them to death in a minute. Hmph, I'm going to eat."
The Room Fire Pig leaped up, transformed into a stream of fire, and in an instant, it flew out of the window.
After a big meal yesterday and a good night's sleep, this "super-grade divine beast" had clearly recovered some of its strength.
Ning Yue stared at the window that the Room Fire Pig had passed through, which was not damaged at all, not even a piece of glass broken, for several minutes, and had to reassess the little pig's strength.
"Ah! No good, I need to hurry to school."
Ning Yue let out a strange cry, only then remembering that there was no time for reflection. He grabbed his schoolbag, didn't even have time to brush off the black pig skin, and rushed out of the room. When Ning Yue rushed to school, he saw students leaving in twos and threes, in other words, it was already time to go home.
"If the teacher knows I skipped class today, he'll kill me. What about the parent-teacher meeting this afternoon?"
Ning Yue grabbed his hair, facing this hopeless problem, he racked his brains but couldn't come up with a good solution. It was an unsolvable problem.
"Right! Didn't Xu Xun say that the divine crystal can grant wishes? I might as well try to see if it works."
Ning Yue completely ignored Xu Xun's warnings afterward. He carried his schoolbag, found a quiet street corner, and began to concentrate.
This time, due to the immense pressure, his mental focus was particularly strong. In less than ten minutes, he entered the dimensional battlefield again, faster than any time yesterday.
Ning Yue didn't care about the dust on the ground. After putting down his schoolbag, he started trying all the methods he could think of to get the divine crystal out again so he could make a wish. However, all his efforts were in vain. The divine crystal, which had already merged with his forehead, seemed to have disappeared, showing no signs of activity.
Ning Yue struggled for a few hours, exhausted and panting, squatting on the ground, thinking to himself, "Do I need to go to the hospital to have surgery to remove the divine crystal from my head? But the problem is, I don't have the money to go to the hospital for a check-up, and I can't tell anyone about this?"
Just as Ning Yue was deeply troubled, he suddenly felt a shock in his mind, entering a strange realm. He saw a huge light screen, as big as six or seven IMAX screens, spanning the void. It was covered with various strange characters and bizarre images, like a slide show, but none of the information was something Ning Yue could understand.
"What the hell is this! Is this the interface of the divine crystal? Hey, I want to make a wish to avoid the parent-teacher meeting this afternoon. Can you fulfill it?"
As soon as Ning Yue said this, the characters on the light screen suddenly changed, all turning into Chinese. A line of large characters, like those of an adult, spanned the entire screen.
"Your wish is to avoid the parent-teacher meeting this afternoon?"
Ning Yue was overjoyed and quickly said, "Yes, yes! The parent-teacher meeting this afternoon, the teacher will definitely complain to my parents..." Before Ning Yue could ramble on, he saw a line of text representing time on the screen, the date at the end jumped twice, changing to the next day, and then he was kicked out of this strange realm, returning to the dimensional battlefield.
"Are you kidding me? Adjusting the time is considered fulfilling the wish? Are you fooling me? The divine crystal is too unreliable. I could do that too."
Ning Yue muttered a few words and left the dimensional battlefield with no choice.
As he walked home, he considered how to face the parent-teacher meeting, which felt like the end of the world. The moment he stepped into the house, he heard a mix of surprise and joy. His parents rushed out, hugged him, and were extremely affectionate.
It took Ning Yue some effort to understand that he was really in the "next day." He didn't come home from school yesterday, and no one attended the parent-teacher meeting in the afternoon. After the meeting, the teacher visited his home to report, intending to complain. Upon learning that Ning Yue hadn't returned home for a day, the teacher panicked, not only helping Ning Yue's parents search all night but also reporting to the police...
Now, Ning Yue's parents were no longer concerned about his report card. They were just relieved that their son hadn't gone missing and had returned home safely.
After Ning Yue finally managed to get away from his parents, he returned to his room and couldn't help but find all the items that could show the time, discovering that he had indeed "lost" a whole day. In other words, the divine crystal had indeed fulfilled his wish, using such a magical method—time travel.
"Wow, this thing is really that magical? What wishes should I make? Conquer the world? Have the ability to fly in space? Get a spaceship? Get a dozen Transformer bodyguards? Become a magician? Or become a god like Sun Wukong?"
Ning Yue's thoughts were scattered, coming up with countless beautiful wishes, but he finally remembered Xu Xun's words that making a wish requires a great cost. So, Ning Yue ultimately rejected these exaggerated and grandiose wishes.
"I'll start with a less exaggerated wish. Even if I have to pay a price, it won't be too high. If the price is relatively easy to pay, I can make some more powerful wishes later."
Ning Yue thought this was a great idea, so he didn't hesitate and dove into the dimensional battlefield. After various struggles, he finally saw the huge light screen again as he wished.
"Something smaller, something that won't cause too much trouble, and the price won't be too high... Got it! Great divine crystal, please give me a bunch of girlfriends! I don't mind how many, I'll take as many as you can give."
Ning Yue was secretly pleased with this "simple and ordinary" wish, but in the next second, he was kicked out. He waited for a long time in the dimensional battlefield but saw no beautiful girls falling from the sky, not even one, let alone a bunch.
