Chapter 111: The top student’s little Desktop Pet 5 (part 1 of 2)

After regaining his sense from watching the beautiful scene of the splashing water droplets, Shen Tong started his ‘microscopic world adventure travel’ with even higher spirits. So much so, that he even forgot Gu Qiange, who’s feeling numb due to anxiety, in the classroom.

A very tiny person garbed in white traditional changpao, held his little head up high with 3 points complacency and 4 points delight, could be seen walking forward barefooted. Looking similar to a castellan making rounds in his territory, exhibiting a very perky look, in addition to having a cute and handsome appearance.

It’s a pity that this handsomeness only lasted for 3 seconds.

A strong gust of wind suddenly blew, the wind-borne dead leaves on the tree relentlessly fell, and just happened to heavily fall on the little person’s body. The little person who had still been extremely spirited just a while ago immediately vanished from sight. Completely buried by the dead leaves, without leaving even a bit of gap.

…≧︿≦…so miserable.

After a while, that pile of dead leaves moved, and kept arching and arching outward from the center of the pile, followed by a huffing and puffing little person crawling out from underneath.

After having encountered a setback when he had just barely taken a step, Shen Tong’s perkiness had already been happily cut in half. The cheeks of the little face were also puffed out in annoyance. Had he been inside the mobile phone, perhaps a small but magnificent dark clouds would have been looming above his head. He lowered his head and patted away the dust clinging to his long hair and clothes, but momentarily froze the instant he looked up again.

Because he saw a group of dark brown silhouettes heading towards him in the distance, each of which were around 6 to 7 millimeters long. Known as as one of the most hardworking animals, and called as ants.

In a microscopic world, even those originally harmless things would also became extremely dangerous. The most insignificant ants in normal times were no longer so small as to Shen Tong’s current point of view, and were practically equivalent to one of his leg.

The type of ants in front of him were wildly known for both their unity and ferocity. They can line up to more than ten meters of distance when cooperating, which was the reason why they were called as pavement ants. Their goal was the pile of biscuit crumbs by the roadside. The ants that surrounded the crumbs in a neat and orderly fashion, seemed to be of quite large numbers.

Shen Tong looked away to avoid seeing this scene with such clarity. Although there wasn’t any feeling of disgust towards this enlarged version of the ants, but this triggered an unprecedented case of Trypophobia*, he even drew back instinctively.

*aversion or fear of clusters of small holes, bumps, or patterns

For ants that were adept in group battles, they can rely on their strong and large jaws to easily tear and collectively besiege singular targets that are several times larger than them. In regard to Shen Tong’s current height which was only as tall as an index finger, then they truly were worthy of caution and vigilance.

But of course, all his vigilance and cautiousness were not necessary at all.

In the presence of the demon’s strength and powerful pressure of a Demon Emperor period here, it wouldn’t matter even if Shen Tong size had shrunk. Let alone an army of ants, even if you search the entire world, there’s nothing a demon spirit in the Demon Emperor period needs to hide or be wary of, on the contrary, it should be the others side who should be scared of him.

Shen Tong was also naturally aware of this matter deep inside. But this fear was an instinctive feeling, –Anyone who were suddenly shrunk to a tiny size like this would be afraid. So he obediently stayed in place without making even a bit of movement, and waited until the ants left before letting out a sigh of relief. He then took a step and raised his little head up once more, and continued his adventure travel.

But reality proved that he was down of his luck today.

After having just been buried by dead leaves a while ago, he had now been unexpectedly tripped over by a tiny pebble. His knee immediately started to ache so badly. Tears brimmed for having nearly made an embarrassment of himself by tripping over. He rubbed his aching knee and looked up with pursed lips. Unexpectedly making eye contact to a pair of round black bean-like eyes.

Which was of a little sparrow that had unknowingly flown over.

Probably because it was still in it’s early years, and had just learned to fly, the body was still not very big. The upright pair of feet happened to be exactly the same as Shen Tong’s height. It tilted it’s tiny head and looked at him with great curiosity.

Seeing a sparrow in such a close range for the first time, had also prompted Shen Tong to tilt his head and look back with great curiosity. As a result, a little person and little bird straightforwardly stared at each other. Until a moment later, the little sparrow broke this silence first, as it made a few chirps towards Shen Tong.

Shen Tong miraculously understood the meaning of the other side, which was something about wanting to take him to it’s home to play. He subsequently raised his head and took a glance at the bird’s nest situated at the slightly higher part of the tree, then politely refused this invitation.

However, the little sparrow’s enthusiasm for making a new friend wasn’t dispelled at all, as it energetically hopped and pecked on the ground for quite a while. It actually picked up a little pointed fruit with it’s beak, which it gave Shen Tong to eat.

The appearance of the little sparrow hopping over to please him was so cute, that Shen Tong couldn’t resist from reaching out to pat it’s head. It’s a pity that his hand which was much smaller compared to the little sparrow’s head, appeared even more delicate against the little grayish feathers as well. On top of having that earnest posture similar to stroking a kitten, making his appearance much cuter than that of the little sparrow.

After having said good-bye to the little sparrow, Shen Tong’s enthusiasm for exploration had completely faded away as well. He had just been feeling a bit of hunger at first, but couldn’t help feeling hungrier upon seeing that little pointed fruit presented by the little sparrow. He couldn’t help touch his little belly, only then did he finally think of Gu Qiange.

Although the other person was a pervert and left him with a very bad impression. But he could still perceive the wholehearted sincerity the other party treats him with. That face of his, which resembles Han Ying made him feel a trace of unspeakable dependency, making him inexplicably believe that the other person would never cause him harm. And no matter what happens, everything will be quickly resolved so long as he goes to find him.
