Chapter Seventy-One: The Birth of a Hero
Wang Xiaojuan and Bai Jiacao glanced at each other and carefully opened the thousand paper cranes.
This was folded decades ago, the paper is very crisp, and the patterns are all faded.
But I can still vaguely see a smiling little star, hanging high above the darkness, caring for the carefree little girl below.
"Ah, this is a thousand paper cranes given by your grandmother's sister when she was a child." Bai Jiacao exclaimed, "Xiaojuan, put it away!" ”
Wang Xiaojuan thought about it, folded the thousand paper cranes carefully, stuffed them back into the pendant, and tied them back to Daya's neck.
"Let's put it here, such a fragile thing, there is no place to put it in the school, Xiaocao, can you keep it for me?" She smiled.
Bai Jiacao was a little flustered, waved his hand and said, "It's too valuable, can I?" ”
"If you can't, what should I do with me, a crybaby?" Wang Xiaojuan lowered her head and said, "Xiaocao, my parents are gone, and my grandparents are also gone, if you don't help me again, I really don't know what to do." ”
Bai Jiacao thought for a long time, took a deep breath, nodded heavily, and said, "Okay, Xiaojuan, I promise you, we will protect grandma's little star together!" ”
Wang Xiaojuan burst into tears and laughed, as if she had found the backbone.
promised to go to Meng's house for dinner in the evening, and she went home first to clean up the relics left by her grandmother.
Bai Jiacao sat on the edge of the flower bed, looking at the devastated community in a daze.
Suddenly, she said to Meng Chao, who had been standing next to her: "Brother, I don't want to live in 'Dragon City No. 1' anymore." ”
Meng Chao was stunned: "What?" ”
"I said, I don't want to live in any ghost 'Dragon City No. 1', no matter how big the house is, no matter how good the environment is, no matter how complete the equipment is, and no matter how fragrant the aura is, I don't want to live, I just want to stay here."
Bai Jiacao hugged the saber-toothed hound "Big Tooth", and said with a serious face, "Tianfuyuan is our home, I won't take half a step back from here!" ”
Meng Chao was silent, looking at the information that jumped in front of him.
[Special citizen Bai Jiacao (Night Witch) blackening probability reduced by 5%, the future of Dragon City is more stable, contribution value +1112]
He didn't understand: "What's the matter, I obviously didn't do anything, why is the probability of my sister's blackening greatly reduced, even greater than the previous two crucial changes?" ”
The mind is racing, and the fragments of memories of the past life are connected together.
In her previous life, Grandma Wang did not die from this monster attack, but had already died during the last invasion of the "Ghost Eye Golden-winged Flame Worm".
The old man, along with the saber-toothed hound, was burned to ashes by the flames spewed by the super beast, and naturally there was no chance of joining the Eternal Brigade.
Everything in the pet beast collar has also become the dust of history.
No one saw the little star that a nurse sister on Earth drew on her deathbed a long, long time ago.
Bai Jiacao's mind was entangled by all kinds of negative emotions, and he fell deeper and deeper into the dark abyss, and finally stepped on the demon path.
But in this life, many things have changed.
Although Tianfuyuan was invaded twice in a row, the residents fought back, gained a lot of strategic resources and combat experience, and emerged their own "remnant star extraordinary", and the whole community became stronger.
Although Grandma Wang died, her body was largely intact and successfully passed the transformation ceremony to become a glorious immortal who would continue to fight to protect her home and her dearest little granddaughter.
Bai Jiacao was entrusted by Grandma Wang to find a new meaning of battle, and Grandma Wang was shining on her in the spirit of heaven, so she should be able to walk out of a brighter path, right?
Meng Chao smiled from the bottom of his heart.
It's not just about gaining more than 1,000 contribution points.
Rather, it was because he finally saw the crystal clear butterfly flapping its wings, setting off an insignificant wind, and under the indescribable chain reaction, it gradually turned into a storm and was about to sweep the heavens and the earth.
Before the storm, the night is coming, but no matter how long the night is, there will be a time when it will be shattered, and it will be the brightest dawn.
"Brother, I don't want to learn to sing and dance, I want to practice, I want to become stronger - believe me, I know what I am fighting for, I can control the most powerful force." Bai Jiacao touched Big Tooth's head, his face full of determination.
Meng Chao stared at his sister for a long time, then suddenly stretched out his hand, rubbed the little girl's hair, and said gently: "Okay, then start by practicing two more hours of pile skills every night, and my brother will help you become stronger." ”
Bai Jiacao: "Another pile work?" Help me! ”
……
For the last two days, Meng Chao has been in retreat at home.
There is not much point in grinding guns in battle, and what he needs most now is to relax his mind, gather his will, and meet the college entrance examination in the best condition.
On the eve of the college entrance examination, another piece of good news surprised him.
[The first healing task was completed, and the elite citizen would rather give up my hands to heal 93%, and basically restore advanced functions]
[Reward: Contribution Points +453, "Primary Harvesting" Mastery +50%, from "Expert" to "Master"]
The sensation of the current passing through the body surges again.
From the central nervous system all the way to the nerve endings, his nerve clusters and sensory cells are constantly dividing and multiplying, just like the root system of a big tree growing at a thousandfold rate.
His fingertips were so sharp that he rubbed on the table and chair at will, and the seemingly smooth surface was touched by him with subtle unevenness.
The next time you harvest monsters, the movements will be more delicate and precise.
However, what made him happiest was that Ning She not only recovered his health, but also defeated his fellow disciple, the "poisonous hand" Liao Santong, in the competition.
He saw this news on the largest monster forum in Dragon City.
"Ghost Hand" and "Poison Hand" are both well-known masters in the Reaper circle, and the two compete openly, which naturally attracts attention, and some people use drones and mobile phones to film the whole process.
The contest between the reapers is not a fist fight, but a competition for the quantity and quality of harvested resources.
Coincidentally, this time the fog descended, and a pair of "double star snapping turtles" were brushed out.
This super beast has always been a twin egg, two snapping turtles are inseparable, the size, weight, organ distribution and body structure are the same, even the brain capacity is almost the same, and only when fighting can they share consciousness and senses.
They were burdened with heavy carapaces, and their bodies were covered with layers of bone plates that were interlocking to each other, which even anti-tank guns could not penetrate, and it was extremely difficult to break them.
Just let the "ghost hand" and the "poisonous hand" compete one by one, to see who harvests faster, collects more resources, and has good quality of rare materials.
Although it weighed thousands of pounds, like a super beast of a small tank, the two masters didn't take much time, and the duel was divided between lightning and fire.
Watching the two of them wield multi-functional mechanical arms, all kinds of oversized chisel axes and saws turned into terrifying gray mist, seemingly swinging wildly in an orderly manner, but dancing with the precision of a scalpel, using the technique of dismantling the cow to lift and dismantle the deformed bone plates, Meng Chao knew that he still had a long way to go.
I won.
His harvesting time was seventeen seconds faster than that of his junior brother, and the weight of the harvested resources exceeded that of his junior brother by 3.5 kilograms, and the most important piece of "remote sensing crystal nucleus" in the head of the double star snapping turtle, which was used to share consciousness and perception, connected to hundreds of nerves as thin as hair, were perfectly stripped out by him.
Although the "poisonous hand" Liao Santong also took out the remote sensing crystal nucleus of another double-star snapping turtle, he broke three nerves, and his appearance was worse after all, so he had to admit defeat with a black face.
"The Devil's Hand Defeats the Poisoner!"
"Didn't you say that Ning Lao was poisoned, and there was no cure for visiting famous doctors, so he could only retire gloomily, why is he still so powerful?"
"Which medical team treated him, and the recovery is so good!"
Monster lovers on the forum exclaimed.
And what shocked them the most was not Ning Shu's recovery or victory, but his actions after the victory.
In front of hundreds of friends and onlookers in the circle, I announced that I would donate half of my net worth to set up the "Fire Transmission Foundation" to cultivate talented but poor children in the Reaper circle.
In addition, he will also open online classes, and release all his life's learning for free, and whoever wants to learn, he will carefully guide - including the cutting-edge "Seven Explanations of Anti-Guan".
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
In the former, it would be better to set up a foundation.
Because of the special tax system in Dragon City, many powerful and wealthy people have set up various foundations to help the middle and lower classes while also avoiding taxes reasonably.
But the latter one, I have taught all my life's learning, what am I going to do?
Even his junior brother, "Poison Hand" Liao Santong was beside him, looking at him dumbfounded.
"Senior Brother Liao, you and I have been fighting for decades, how could I not know your little thoughts?"
Meng Chao saw from a video that he would rather carry my hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Actually, in the past, I enjoyed the taste of fighting openly and secretly with you, fighting back and forth, fighting for the titles of 'ghost hand' and 'poisonous hand', and I was complacent."
"Now that I think about it, we are the only earthlings in the other world, and under the siege of monsters, what's the point of fighting in the nest?
"I released all my life's learning for free, it seems to be a loss, but if more people learn my harvesting technique and collect more resources for Dragon City, Dragon City's combat effectiveness will become stronger, and our children and grandchildren will not be able to live safer and have a brighter future?"
As he spoke, Ning She patted Liao Santong on the shoulder of the stunned Liao Santong.
"Senior brother, I know that in the past few decades, you have always remembered the "Jade Test Method" taught to me by the master, and I am too narrow-minded, afraid that you will surpass me, and I will not tell you for decades, fortunately, I was seriously injured some time ago, which made me reflect on a lot of things, and I got the guidance of a mysterious senior, I was simply enlightened and reborn, I am completely awake, and I will find a place later, and I will tell you all the key points of the "Jade Trial Method".
"What?" Liao Santong took two steps back, trembling and couldn't believe it.
The entire monster forum also completely exploded: "The mysterious predecessor who can make Old Man Ning 'Daigo empowerment and regain his life'? What a legendary existence this is! ”
In front of Meng Chao's eyes, a strange fire shone:
[Ignited by the flame bearer, Ning She's consciousness has been improved, transforming from an 'elite citizen' to a 'quasi-hero citizen', and the overall resource harvesting efficiency of Dragon City will also increase with the transformation of him and more people, with a contribution value of +999]
“……”
Meng Chao's heart fluctuated, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Suddenly, a very subtle sense of shame arose.
It is because I am bound to the fire and can accumulate contribution points that I will be so proactive in contributing.
But Principal Sun, Grandma Wang, and Old Man Ning, these seniors are not bound to any system, and it is not of much benefit to them to contribute to them, and they will even pay a painful price.
They are still willing to eat and see death as home.
Compared with them, what are they, and what qualifications do they have to guide others and let them "be empowered and reborn".
"It should be Principal Sun, Grandma Wang, and Ning Lao who enlightened me."
Meng Chao muttered, "It turns out that citizen units are not fixed, and heroes are not born, any ordinary citizen may be promoted to the elite, and elite citizens also have the opportunity to be promoted to heroes."
"And what kind of citizen am I?"
Is it ordinary, elite, special, or ......
