It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future (WN)

Qiu Yang was very careful. Even if there was nothing amiss, he still remained vigilant. He never relaxed for a single second.

He trusted his instincts. He wouldn't let his guard down just because there was nothing going on around him.

"Huh? What's that?" A soldier in front of him suddenly shouted.

Almost instantly, a scream of agony was heard. "Ah!" The scream echoed throughout the entire forest.

The soldiers behind him were dumbfounded. They didn't have any idea on was happening in the front.

Qiu Yang narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, a sense of crisis struck him. "Below!"

He immediately jumped up without hesitation. A tentacle quickly spurted up from the ground and attacked Qiu Yang ferociously.

Qiu Yang twirled his body and kicked at the air, kicking the tentacle that was attacking him away at the same time. Before he could heave a sigh of relief, another tentacle attacked him from the back.

This attack was out of Qiu Yang's expectation. However, he didn't get nervous. He twisted the upper half of his body and evaded the attack that was supposed to hit him.

But, the attack of the tentacles hadn't ended yet. It was only just the start. More than ten tentacles suddenly rose up from the areas that were covered by bushes and attacked Qiu Yang from all directions.

Qiu Yang was able to evade one or two tentacles but he couldn't evade so many tentacles at once. The timing of the tentacles was just right. Qiu Yang was like a prey that had entered a trap. He got entangled by the tentacles and couldn't move.

Qiu Yang was shocked. He wanted to resist but he received a sharp knock on his head and he turned unconscious.

However, he woke up quickly, but he could no longer see any trees around him anymore. Instead, all he saw the clear blue sky, white clouds and a patch of green land below him.

'Huh? Why am I in the air?'

"Ah!"

Qiu Yang quickly understood what had happened to him. Just like those soldiers before him, he let out a frightened high-pitched scream which pierced through the air. Now, he knew why the soldiers in front of him screamed out loud.

They were thrown into the air by some tentacle monster. Based on their speed of them rising into the air, they would die the moment they fall to the ground.

"Ah!" Screams from the other soldiers beside him flew passed him. They belonged to those elite aces. The speed at which they were thrown into the air was much faster than him.

However, soon, he flew passed another soldier. He remembered this soldier. He was a special-class operator.

'Their speed of getting thrown into the air had something to do with their capabilities?' Qiu Yang seemed to have noticed something… or not.

Little White was very happy now. Its master had come back a few days ago.

During its time at the base, it was very bored. The people it was familiar with were all training or had missions to do so Little White had nothing to do in the end. Thus, it spent its time watching some cartoons which were meant for little children. In the shows, it would show pets who didn't have a master were pitiful creatures. Some of them would even become strays in the end. They had no food to eat, no home and most importantly, no loving master. Those unlucky ones might even be beaten to death.

'Sob, this world is so scary. Little White must never run away. It will be obedient. Master, please come back and bring me away. Even if you want to run away, please bring me along.'

Little White sat in front of Meng Lan's mainframe and watched the cartoon she was playing for it. It took a piece of tissue paper with one of its tentacles and wiped its tears as if it was heartbroken. After the tissue paper was all wet from its tears, it would throw the tissue paper accurately into a rubbish bin with its tentacles. Then, it would take another tissue paper and continue crying.

'Sob, this story makes me sad. Master, I need you to console me.'

Little White was so touched by the cartoon that it forgot that it was able to injure a Qi-Jin master with a single strike of its tentacles. Additionally, domain realm masters couldn't really injure it too. Hence, if it became a stray Little White, it would still be able to live like a king. It wouldn't land in the pitiful states of those stray pets.

"Little White, how is your mission going?" Meng Lan reminded Little White when she saw it being addicted to the cartoon.

Meng Lan remembered Colonel Li saying that Little White was in charge of the first assessment. Was it alright for it to stay here and watch cartoons?

"Huh?" Little White looked up in puzzlement with clear signs of tears in its eyes. There was also a new piece of tissue paper in its tentacle.

"Aren't you in charge of the first assessment?" Meng Lan gave a speechless expression on her virtual face. Was it alright to give such an important mission to this Little White?

Little White's tentacles suddenly froze in mid-air. "Roar!" It was dead!

It got enchanted by the cartoon and forgot about its mission.

Little White disappeared instantly, leaving the tissue paper fluttering in the air as it floated slowly to the seat which Little White was sitting on just now.

Meng Lan looked at the tissue paper and sighed softly. "I hope that everything will be smooth for Little White and that it won't be eaten by Master Ling Lan."

Little White stayed at her place for the longest time so she knew that once it made a mistake, it would be eaten by Master Ling Lan. Meng Lan didn't understand why Little White would make such mistakes. She didn't understand what kind of punishment eating was too? Was it similar to the day and month training?

Meng Lan shook her head to get rid of the random thoughts in her head. Then, she disappeared the next moment.

Meng Lan would only show this emotional side of her in front of Ling Lan, Little Four, and Little White. In front of everyone else, she would appear just like any other mainframe but just a little more advanced.

Little White quickly came to the forest and saw no one there. It hugged its head with its tentacles and roared in agony. It was dead.

It got distracted by the cartoon and let everyone pass the assessment! It was supposed to only let a portion of the soldiers, who were adequate, pass this forest.

At that moment, a colonel wearing a mask appeared beside it.

"Little White!" Li Lanfeng called it out.

Little White hugged its head and looked at Li Lanfeng pitifully.

Li Lanfeng sighed. He pointed to the two figures at the entrance of the plaza. "Regiment commander is watching."

"Rawr!" Little White screamed. Pets that made mistakes would be abandoned. I don't want to be a stray Little White!

Li Lanfeng looked at it sympathetically and said, "Little White, you really killed yourself, huh."

"Rawr!"

'No! I don't want to become a stray Little White! I must change my destiny! Master, please give me strength!'
