The Reader And The Protagonist Definitely Have To Be In True Love

(Chapter 34) Author: Choose a good rival, this is a lifetime thing.

"Four years" – these words echoed in Du Ze's mind. He couldn't imagine it. Clearly, he just went out for a little bit ... Four years?

This was too much information for him to process!

The stupefied Du Ze sat up and stared vacantly at Xiu. He could clearly see that the gnome's mouth was red. Xiu seemed to be aware of this and licked the corners of his mouth before revealing a very sweet smile, like a child eating his favorite candy. The protagonist was giving off a sweet but dark air.

Du Ze's heart beat violently. He looked at Xiu's hand that reached out and carefully rubbed the back of his neck. Xiu liked touching his neck before, but somehow, this time it was different. He could feel Xiu's fingertips on his skin, hinting at excitement, ready to make trouble.

Something's not right. Du Ze swallowed his saliva with some difficulty. His throat felt tight. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down and Xiu's fingers slid underneath it.

The protagonist was now giving him a feeling like he was a volcano that was about to explode while Du Ze was stuck in the crater waiting to die – well, if any YY novel protagonist had to wait for a little brother for four years, his anger gauge must be overflowing. But please be calm, protagonist! The author did not write "four years flew by" – therefore, if you want to explode, please find your family's rotten "haha" (troll) author instead of venting your anger on this innocent reader!_ (: з "∠)

Du Ze felt Xiu's hand encircle the back of his neck as the gnome pulled him closer. The young boy, with his forehead against Du Ze's, said in a soft, sweet voice: "Do you have anything to say?"

This young man really does not know why it turned out like this – ah!

"If you don't, then listen to me." Xiu soft voice was full of patience. "I have a lot to tell you."

"Boom–!!!"

A huge explosion came from the west where the Gnome Ruins' "Wisdom" plaza was located. Black smoke rose from that direction. Old John frowned; his gentle voice was tinged with a slight displeasure: "Someone broke in. Are children so violent now? ... Here they come."

The street became noisy with the sound of many footsteps drawing nearer. Du Ze put Xiu behind him – now that the protagonist was in his gnome form, it's a bit inconvenient.

Those people moved very fast and they appeared in front of Du Ze almost instantly. It was a mercenary squad. A thief with neat, light-colored short hair was running ahead of the main group. When the thief saw Du Ze and Old John, he slammed on the brakes. One of his companions that was behind him narrowly missed a collision.

"Hey! Why did you suddenly stop and block my way, Enoch?!"

The one complaining was a muscular, brawny man with a big sword in his hand. Sitting on his shoulder was a little girl who clapped her hands and giggled, saying: "Enoch is a fool ~ a fool!"

The burglar, known as Enoch, turned back. Pointing to Old John and Du Ze, he asked: "Don't you see the people across the street?"

Du Ze stared at the group of people. Effortlessly, he recalled their names: Rogue Enoch, Warrior Bart, Fire Wizard Honey, and ... Du Ze's heartbeat began to quicken, and he stared at the figure that was slowly walking toward them. It was a blond youth clad in silver-white armor, with a heroic, bold face and eyes as bright as stars. When Du Ze looked at him, there seemed to be a villain in his brain narrating the plot of "Mixed Blood."

The protagonist joined a mercenary team.

There was a high-strung thief named Enoch, who always liked to run first.

There was a young fire wizard named Honey, who likes humming.

There was a big sword fighter named Bart, who everyone knows is a bodyguard for Honey.
