The Ultimate Divine Class-Chapter 617 - 18: Dropping Out, Venia and Lin Yun_2

Lu Qiyuan thought of going to the wilderness in the middle of the night to pick up meteors because he had no money and couldn't afford other gifts for Venia.

"But if it weren't for this guy's big spending and bootlicker trait, I wouldn't have had the chance to 'rebirth' using his body..."

Thinking about it this way, Lu Yuan suddenly felt that Lu Qiyuan being a "waste" was quite good, and it was fitting for him to be a "waste."

"So, now the only problem is the source of the bismuth metal waste mines."

Although bismuth metal mines are worth less than garbage, they're not something you can just buy at will.

And even if you could buy them easily, long-term and incessant purchases of large amounts of bismuth metal waste mines, which finally all disappear without a trace, will raise suspicion.

As long as you're not a fool, you can surely see something's odd. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"It would be best to have a stable and concealed way to get them, and consuming the waste mines shouldn't easily attract attention."

"Also... I need to stay away from the main circle of the Great Capital Star."

While thinking, Lu Yuan casually called up the photobrain to start searching the main distribution of bismuth metal production resource planets, waste mines, Source Breath Insects distribution in the Duoling Empire, and so on.

As he searched, he surprisingly made an unexpected discovery.

"Huh?!"

Looking at the related information pushed by big data in front of him, Lu Yuan blinked and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Is it... this coincidental?!"

"Well, that makes it easy to handle...."

.....

Surrounded by green shade, along a quiet and beautiful tree-lined path, young men and women walked in small groups.

The men mostly wore well-tailored, deep blue coats with gold-patterned decorations on the collar and cuffs, looking noble and handsome.

The women wore knee-length fitted dresses with white lace at the hem, appearing dignified yet elegant.

This is the Duoling Shield, one of the best noble academies on the 2045th Great Capital Star.

At this moment, inside a huge building with a white spire, in a room with a beautiful red gemstone embedded in the wall by the door, several men and women with outstanding looks and elegant temperaments were chatting and laughing quietly.

Suddenly, a figure rushed in from outside the door.

Running and shouting loudly: "Big news! Big news!.."

The few people in the classroom chatting all unconsciously looked towards the door.

"What big news again?"

A red-haired youth half-leaning on his seat, handsome and with nose and ear piercings, lazily inquired the boy who rushed in.

The latter panted heavily twice, lifted a hand to point at a personal terminal in his hand akin to a pocket watch, and quickly said: "Didn't you see the message I sent in the group?

The 'lovemaster' Lu Qiyuan, famous in the school recently, dropped out today."

"Dropped out?!"

The few people in the classroom were all stunned.

Followed by someone bursting into uncontrollable laughter.

"Haha, that kid pretended to be sick and stayed home for over half a month, but ultimately couldn't hold it and chose to drop out!"

"If it were me, I wouldn't want to come to school either.

Who likes to be seen as a joke wherever they go.."

Another person lamented.

Upon hearing the news, the red-haired youth who first spoke sat up quickly, put his arm around the girl sitting next to him, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Lu Qiyuan to drop out, tsk tsk..

Speaking of which, it all started because of you, Venia, now don't you need to comfort him a bit?"

The girl called Venia, caught in the red-haired youth's embrace, had long wavy rose-colored hair, her skin white and smooth as milk, with blue eyes, looking very beautiful and elegant.

Facing the red-haired youth's teasing, she remained calm and said softly:

"What does it have to do with me? I'm not even friends with him.

He's like this now because he chose it himself, serving him right for being one-sided... "

"What a cold woman, I wonder how heartbroken Lu Qiyuan would be to hear this..."

The red-haired youth sighed sympathetically twice, then suddenly changed the topic, leaned closer to Venia, and whispered near her delicate, white ear while blowing air: "We'll need someone else to buy breakfast for us afterward.

You know, I've never liked the school food..."

Venia blushed from the red-haired youth's openly intimate actions, and her body swayed gently, appearing somewhat uneasy.

But she lowered her head in the end, softly saying "Mm."

The few others around laughed, seeming to have long been accustomed to it.

...

"..hasn't come.

Since that happened, Xu Mingguang hasn't been to school.

His family came twice, but that was a while ago, haven't seen them recently, and it's said the school can't contact his family anymore..."

At the Duoling Shield Academy gate, two boys with a lock of green hair on their foreheads and broad physiques stood obediently in front of Lu Yuan, answering his questions.

They were the only two "friends" or rather hangers-on of the former Lu Qiyuan at Duoling Shield.

"Alright, I got it."

Lu Yuan nodded after hearing their answers, ready to leave.

But the two couldn't help but ask: "Qi Yuan, are you really planning to drop out?!"

Lu Yuan paused his movements, looked back at the two's faces which showed a complex hint of reluctance, softened slightly in attitude towards them.

Lu Yuan nodded and replied.

"Yes."

"Where will you go after dropping out? Golden Thistle Flower? Or Red Eagle?"

The two mentioned several academies similar to Duoling Shield, but Lu Yuan just shook his head.
