Chapter 4: The Road of Destiny
In the evening, on a narrow country road, a skeletal old horse dragged a dilapidated carriage with great difficulty. From time to time there was a cooing of birds in the dim woods, and the whole carriage shook with a clang.
An old man came out of the carriage and patted the shoulder of the driver in front of the carriage, "Little Master Lu Li, let me come!" You've been doing it for half a day, so I'll keep going! ”
The driver sitting in front of him was Lu Li, who was also extremely tired at this time, and after thinking about it, he did not refuse the old man's kindness, gave up the position of the car, and lay in the carriage and quickly fell asleep.
I don't know how long it took, the groggy Lu Li gradually woke up again, he opened his eyes, and when he looked around, there was an indelible darkness all around, only a small path under his feet emitted a faint light.
He walked along the path, and soon he saw a light source. As he approached the island, he realized that the light source was a bare dead tree.
If there is any difference between this dead tree and an ordinary tree except for the glow, it is his countless branches that continue to spread upwards, the dense branches cover the entire sky, illuminating a place of light in the darkness, but it is strange that Lu Li has not seen these branches that fill the entire sky before.
At the same time that Lu Li got the side of the dead tree, the dense branches in the sky broke at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in just a few seconds, only the strongest branch remained, and the branches that fell to the ground formed three wooden platforms that were more than half a person high.
Lu Li didn't seem very surprised, this strange place, on the first night he came to this world and was rescued from the sea by the old man Roboz, he appeared in a dream, but at first Lu Li didn't care, he just thought that he thought about it day and night, and it was because he was too afraid of death that it led to such a dream.
But as he continued to appear here for the next few days, he knew that this was no ordinary dream. It is not possible for a person to have the same dream in a row and wake up and remember what happened in the dream clearly.
Although Lu Li is just an ordinary student and doesn't have much experience, he is bold by nature and can even be said to be heroic, so not only did he not avoid this strange dream, but he took the initiative to explore this dream more boldly and actively.
It's a pity that no matter how hard Lu Li tried before, he could only stagger forward on the trail, unable to reach the strange dead tree in front of him. And if he is anxious, it is easy to leave from the dream, and in desperation, he has to persevere in exploring every day, and finally there is a gratifying change today.
Before Lu Li came to the first wooden shelf in front of him, the darkness of the fourth middle school shrouded again, leaving only the faint glow of the wooden shelf to illuminate the surroundings.
The wooden shelves framed by broken branches were still covered with stubble, and a faint light continued to spread in the air from the stubble, reflecting a row of large characters that radiated light:
[The Chosen One], chosen by fate, travels through the world to start a completely different life, this is your fate. Please go down bravely and dominate the world!
Requirements: None
Reward: [Chosen Son] (Claimed): In the face of difficulties, you can burst out with a power far beyond ordinary people, constantly breaking through the limits and breaking people's perception of you.
Lu Li had already noticed the effect of this reward, when he first came to this world and fell into the sea, whenever he was exhausted and about to sink into the sea, if he held on a little longer, new strength would gush out from all over his body, which supported him to swim in the sea for sixteen hours without stopping, and had the opportunity to be rescued by Tropoz.
The dim light faded as Lu Li walked forward, and he stepped over the first wooden shelf to the second shelf:
[Perseverance I.], you have never had any perseverance, after coming to this world, you insisted on exercising every day, never stopped, and finally inspired the power hidden in the body, and you initially had the perseverance and courage to change the world.
Requirements: Eight hours of high-intensity exercise every day for more than half a year.
Reward: [Overlord Lifting] (claimed), you are already close to the limit of ordinary people, you have a power that completely surpasses the imagination of ordinary people, and you will be another overlord when you return to ancient times. This is the comprehensive evaluation of you.
Although Lu Li had some guesses about the reason for the changes in his body, he never expected that it would change because of his daily exercise. Up to eight hours a day of high-intensity workouts is completely impossible for anyone else.
What does a high-intensity workout represent? It means that you have to be close to your limits when exercising, even if you are as strong as Karp, even if you can mentally withstand it, but your body will never be able to withstand eight hours of exercise close to your limit.
Only Lu Li in this world can do this. The ability of the Chosen One allows him to break through the limit after approaching the limit, and as long as he can endure the pain of high-intensity training and breaking through the limit, he can continue to do so. And Lu Li, who was desperate to go home, would never spare his sweat to be able to complete this difficult achievement inadvertently.
Lu Li then walked to the back and looked at the last wooden platform:
[First confrontation], as a good baby who has never fought with others, you have not been timid to retreat from the first confrontation with others, and the fearless person will be more powerful.
Need: The first fearless head-to-head confrontation with people.
Reward: [Calm] (claimed), you may not be able to reach the Tarzan Collapse and not change your face, but in the face of ordinary difficulties, you have been able to quickly calm down and use your own strength to solve them, but the excessive calm has caused trouble to your body, and you are not handsome and will soon have a shiny head.
Lu Li stood in front of the last wooden platform and pondered for a long time, these new changes should have appeared after he decided to change his state and leave this 'novice village', otherwise it would not have been possible that he would not have appeared on the night after he fought with Yixiao, but on the night when he set off for the royal capital.
And these rewards are also the result of his different choices first, this place just normalizes them, not the ability born out of thin air, it seems that he needs to be more cautious when making decisions in the future in order to get a good result.
Just as Lu Li was pondering, the dead tree in front of him fell silently, and the only remaining trunk fell to the ground, turning into a curved path, piercing the darkness around him and giving Lu Li new guidance.
With the fall of the dead tree, darkness enveloped Lu Li again, and with the arrival of darkness, Lu Li also fell into a deep sleep.
