บท 8: The System’s Reward
Soon, the shattered space in front of Zhao Rui disappeared.
Zhao Rui felt the cold ground. He opened his eyes and found himself lying on the ground.
Combined with the sharp pain in his head, Zhao Rui knew that he had fallen off the bed.
"F * ck, what bad luck!"
Zhao Rui rubbed his head and couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
At this moment, a burst of laughter came from all around.
"Hahaha..."
"Zhao Rui, what's wrong? Don't tell me you also have someone you like? Did you dream about your wife?" Chi Heng, who was curled up in the blanket, covered his mouth and laughed as he looked at Zhao Rui.
Bai Xiaofei and Zhang Cheng looked at Zhao Rui in front of them. The two of them clapped their hands and laughed loudly.
It turned out that Zhao Rui had crashed onto the ground from the bed with a "Clang", waking up the three roommates.
He did not disturb their sleep.
However, the sky outside the window was already lighting up. In a few minutes, the signal to wake up would ring.
He did not expect that he would make such a fool of himself in front of his roommates in just one day.
Zhao Rui was gloomy.
At this moment, a familiar synthetic voice rang in Zhao Rui's mind.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining an increase in physical strength through last night's training. The host will be rewarded with the ability to fold quilts."
Only when he heard the system's voice did Zhao Rui notice that his entire body did not feel anything strange.
One had to know that normally, if Zhao Rui did a hundred push-ups at once, his arms and chest would be so tired that he would not be able to move them for a few days.
However, after doing a few hundred push-ups in the training space, he actually didn't feel tired at all.
Zhao Rui was overjoyed. He knew that the training space would definitely be able to help him become the most outstanding graduate in the history of the Military Academy!
This sudden movement gave Bai Xiaofei and the other two a scare.
He fell from the bed with a "Clang", and now he actually had a silly smile on his face. Could it be that this person had damaged his brain? !
Chi Heng quickly stopped smiling. He didn't even have time to put on his clothes before he got out of bed.
He came to Zhao Rui's side and carefully observed his roommate.
"Brother, does your head still hurt? Do you want me to tell the officer on duty to send you to the infirmary?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
"I just thought that falling from the bed is too embarrassing. I'm laughing at myself." Zhao Rui understood that Chi Heng was just concerned about him.
Hearing Zhao Rui say this, the three of them felt relieved.
At this moment, the signal to wake up rang.
When they heard this sound, Bai Xiaofei and Zhang Cheng did not dare to delay any further. They immediately got off the bed to put on their clothes. As the new recruits only had ten minutes to freshen up, they had to do their personal chores immediately and then gather for the morning exercises.
The reward for Zhao Rui by the system was the "Quilt Folding Skill". Now was the time to see if the system reward was effective.
After the soft quilt in Zhao Rui's hand was flipped and folded, it immediately turned into a well-defined shape of a tofu block. The whole process didn't even take a minute.
"F * ck, Zhao Rui, how did you do it just now?"
The quilt that looked like a pile of mud on the bed made Bai Xiaofei's hair stand on end.
When he turned around and saw that Zhao Rui had already folded the quilt, Bai Xiaofei couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's very simple. Didn't you pay attention to Elena's demonstration yesterday? You can easily fold it according to her steps."
At this moment, Zhao Rui was secretly rejoicing in his heart.
Hmph, wasn't he making fun of me for falling off the bed just now? Now it's my turn.
"Brother Zhao! Help me fold it, Brother Zhao! I beg you, Brother Zhao."
Zhang Cheng looked at Zhao Rui and asked for help.
"This... I... I also have personal chores to do." Zhao Rui found an excuse to reject Zhang Cheng.
It wasn't that Zhao Rui didn't want to help Zhang Cheng, it was just that folding quilts was a skill that every soldier must have.
Even if Zhao Rui helped Zhang Cheng today, would he have to help him every day in the future?
Zhang Cheng and Bai Xiaofei had to learn how to fold quilts on their own.
On the other hand, the little fatty Chi Heng wasn't in a hurry. He was the first to wash up, and after washing up, he slowly put on his clothes.
"Chi Heng, are you crazy? It's almost time for the assembly, why aren't you folding quilts?" Zhang Cheng couldn't help but ask when he saw Chi Heng's relaxed look.
Right now, Chi Heng's quilt was still lying on the bed.
"Hmph, isn't it just folding a quilt? What's so difficult about it? I can just casually fold it and it'll look like a perfect tofu block!"
However, after saying this confidently, Chi Heng still didn't fold the quilt.
He took out a folded cardboard box from his suitcase and started to restore the shape.
"Chi Heng? What are you doing?"
Even Zhao Rui couldn't figure out what the little fatty was planning to do.
"This is my secret weapon. You guys take a good look at it. Open your eyes and see how I fold it."
Bai Xiaofei and Zhang Cheng had already folded their quilts, though their quilts were very ugly.
But after hearing Chi Heng's confident words, the two of them couldn't help but put down the quilts in their hands and watch Chi Heng perform.
Zhao Rui's gaze was drawn to him as well.
As a result, under the three's gazes, Chi Heng casually folded the blankets.
It was even uglier than Zhang Cheng's and Bai Xiaofei's blankets. Then, Chi Heng placed the blankets into the cardboard box that he had just restored.
This little fatty placed his feet into the cardboard box and stomped wildly on the quilt.
"Chi Heng, what are you doing? It's a complete waste of time."
Zhang Cheng couldn't understand Chi Heng's crazy action.
"I'll perform a magic trick for you." As he said this, Chi Heng took his feet out of the cardboard box.
Then, Chi Heng pointed the opening of the cardboard box at his bed and lightly patted the cardboard box a few times.
Immediately, a neat piece of tofu fell directly onto Chi Heng's bed.
"Amazing, Chi Heng, what a piece of technology."
"Amazing, he can even fold the quilt so neatly!"
Bai Xiaofei, Zhang Cheng, and the others said in surprise.
"Chi Heng, is this the preparation you made before coming to the Military Academy?" Even Zhao Rui was impressed by this clever little fatty.
Chi Heng was very happy to be praised by his roommates. The corners of his mouth were so wide that it almost reached the back of his ears.
"Hehe, I came to the military academy just to muddle along. After these few years, I will go to the girl I like to confess. Of course, I had to prepare a strategy before I came.
"I won't learn something as difficult as folding quilts so I have to make preparations in advance."
Although Chi Heng used a hacking technique to fold quilts, Bai Xiaofei and Zhang Cheng did not have the time to use it.
Because the morning exercise assembly time was about to come, Bai Xiaofei and Zhang Cheng could only hurriedly wash up and put on their clothes.
Zhao Rui and a few others then went to participate in the morning training exercise.
