His tired body was already covered with sweat, and with every step, Lu Ping'an felt like his feet were filled with lead.

"Ha, ha, is this the otaku-level physical strength of the ward that has been in the ward for half a year, it's really funny enough......"

There is also self-deprecation, and it seems that the situation is not too bad.

[Gain a small amount of running experience, experience +0.1.] 】

Lu Ping'an stopped, this was struggling for almost an hour, and everyone was dying, so that his "system" could make up the amount of the first broadcast, and the improvement efficiency was really low enough.

The "small amount" that the Thunder Fire Blade divided into itself before, rather than a "small amount", was also very different.

But think about it, the results of a professional doctoral research after two or even three days, even after a discount, are far more than a novice's efforts for one day.

That's the difference in level, the difference between a professional expert and a layman.

Before experts became professionals, the countless years of investment and the accumulation of talents caused the same "day" as experts and rookies, but it was not a one-grade harvest.

In fact, this also vaguely reveals the place where Lu Ping'an's talent is domineering, everyone has talents and specialties, as well as the knowledge accumulated over the years.

However, he can bypass these "foundations" and directly obtain a share of the "results", which can be called cheating-level growth, but .......

“...... With this efficiency, even if there are two runners to give me a share, I am afraid that I will still not be able to complete two sharp transformations in half a month and become a real runner, a first-order superpower. ”

The "Running Technique Lv1" and "Breathing Technique Lv1" on the panel are like mockery.

And if Lu Ping'an understands correctly, the LV10 of various professional skills is the threshold for employment.

Just like Xia Qin's information, the supernatural forces of this world are in a sense a kind of "pollution", and no matter how much they fall deeper and deeper sooner or later, they will degenerate into monsters or aliens.

Therefore, borrowing the growth path of a powerful being, determining the coordinates and stages of growth, and making pollution slightly controllable, has become the existing regular progress system of the night watch.

"Pollution is chaos, and to purify it to order, it is necessary to use the power of the gods as a harmless lens (filter) and its growth trajectory as the coordinates. So, what could be more representative of order and an individual's place in society and history than the 'occupation' of human society. ”

Ignoring the overly cumbersome and complex theories, the career system modeled after the so-called gods is the ladder of progress for the current Night's Watch.

Among the information that Lu Ping'an has seen, there are 53 common ways.

Well, the power of at least 53 gods is used by humans.

Or to put it another way, the gods interfere with the normal life of modern society.

Glancing at the statue in the center of the runway, Lu Ping'an became more and more delicate, the former materialists were really not used to such a world.

"The Church of the Righteous God Chasers has 16 large enterprises, including sports equipment, health care, transportation, sports sponsorship and other industries. What is this, capitalist theocracy? ”

The idol in front of him was a humanoid creature running with outstretched hands, his face could not be seen clearly, and lightning was faintly following him.

The full name of this stadium is "The First Sports Stadium of the Ancient City Chaser".

The reason why it is called "first" is because there are five large gymnasiums from "second" to "sixth" in the ancient city.

It is reported that the hospital where Lu Ping'an stayed before was also the property of a certain church.

Lu Ping'an has never had a good impression of the gods, but now, he needs to borrow the power of these "gods".

He needs to link with the gods and put his pollution alienation into a controllable track, commonly known as orbital entry.

"Ha, they all say that the induction ceremony of runners is simple, but it is still a bit terrible for me to lie in bed like this for half a year."

This is not the first time Lu Ping'an has tried to become a Level 0 runner, but the first few times, it is natural that he has failed.

The ritual is actually quite simple, just reciting the name of the "chaser" and then running the prescribed distance at the specified time.

"It's not that hard to run five kilometers in 15 minutes....... What a ghost! The world record for 5,000 meters is 12 minutes, which is at least the standard for athletes! ”

Each deity seems to have his own preferences and tastes, and this "chaser" likes to run fast.

Lu Ping'an asked Xia Qin what such a strange ritual meant to the gods, but the answer he got was quite subtle.

“...... It doesn't make sense to God, it makes sense to you. To the great beings in the clouds, any human action is meaningless, but the act itself is an expression of meaning, the expression of 'I am here to see you'......."

"Incomprehensible? Well, what the ants are thinking, humans don't care. But if the ants get together, piece together your name from leaves and body, and imitate your movements, you will also be curious to look at it twice. ”

And that attentive gaze creates a connection between ants and humans, between humans and gods. And we only need that little bit of connection. ”

The inauguration ceremony of runners only requires a "polluter", and after reciting the name of the god, they can run a certain distance in a circle, which is known as the easiest inauguration.

But Lu Ping'an has failed twice, and even after several days of runner experience, he still does not meet the criteria for employment, and he is about to fail for ......the third time.

"I'm so tired, I'm almost at the limit, so let's cheat a little bit....... delay payment of life."

A silver glimmer fell on Lu Ping'an's body, and his eyes came back to his senses.

[Life Bank Sub-Ability 1, Deferred Payment of Life: The price that must be paid for life is divided into six six-month installments (6/month). 】

[The cost type is specified as 'physical strength', the installment unit is days, and the number of installments is 3.]

[The current time is 10:20:27 on May 5, and the next payment time is 10:20:27 on May 6, please be sure to keep your physical condition, if your physical strength is not enough to pay the price, double life points will be directly deducted.] 】

In an instant, Lu Ping'an felt much more comfortable.

When the fatigue instantly dissipated to one-third of the original, he immediately relaxed.

He accelerated so hard that it felt like he had just run.

In the beginning, he thought that his ability was only to stage injuries and illnesses.

A stab wound is paid in three installments and settled with life points...... Judging from the results, it is very similar to the ability to heal immediately, and only one-third or one-sixth of the wound can be touched by touching it.

It seems that the potential for "healing" is also quite high, and as long as you don't die on the spot, you can get milk.

Later, he realized that he was thinking too simply.

"Competence is marked with the 'cost of life' rather than injury. Since pain and illness are the price that life must pay and can be deferred, is the fatigue that consumes physical strength gone? If it works, wouldn't I have two pipes of physical strength?! ”

So, he tried.

Not to mention, when the tiredness really decreased significantly, he was quite excited, and immediately went to try the second runner onboarding.

“...... Dry, the physical strength of the two tubes is still not enough. ”

Thinking of the dilemma a few days ago, Lu Ping'an was also quite helpless.

But this time, the third time, which should also be the last attempt before the college entrance examination, is different.

I've had five days of experience as a professional runner and I've improved a lot on this path.

Different from his first attempt, the "running technique" allowed him to use the most standard and low-effort running movements, and the rhythm and pace of each step were vaguely up to a professional level.

The "breathing method" can adjust the internal circulation of the body and save physical strength.

One inside and one outside, through the experience of "sharing" with professionals, Lu Ping'an has acquired a running skill that a runner needs time to polish.

With the "software", the rest is naturally the hardware, which is supplemented by the "extra stamina bar" that the system opens.

The success of ordinary "polluters" often requires three months to six months of basic training, and Lu Ping'an's last attempt was not far off.

When the 5,000-meter run becomes two two thousand five, the difficulty is not reduced by a little.

“...... Persistence, persistence. ”

Covered in sweat, his breathing was still warm and steady, his pace and swinging arms always maintained a fixed rhythm, Lu Ping'an imagined himself as a machine, trying to forget the physical strength to bottom out again.

"Soon, soon......."

Just when he really couldn't run, thinking that he was about to finish again, the system's prompt sounded, like a natural sound.

[Tick, congratulations to the host, the inauguration ceremony is completed, and the rank 'Runner' is obtained.] 】

[Runner class correction: Slightly increased physique, slight increase in reflexes, and slight decrease in spirit.] 】

[The general skill 'Running Skill LV1' is transformed into the vocational skill 'Chasing Light Running Method LV1'.] 】

[The general skill 'Breathing Lv1' is transformed into the vocational skill 'Swift Breathing Lv1'.] 】

Lu Ping'an stopped, inhaled heavily, and finally smiled.

"Finally it worked!"

If that's just that, Lu Ping'an won't be so excited.

After his successful inauguration, his panel was also updated.

[Lu Ping'an, 16 years old, male. Life Points: 4960 (-6000)】

[Status: Physical (mortal), Reflex (mortal), spiritual (mortal)]

[Class: Tier 0 Runner]

[Professional ability: none.] 】

[Professional skills: chasing light running method LV1, flash breathing method lv1.] 】

[General Skill: Cooking Lv2, Cleaning Lv1........]

Successful employment, just look at the promotion is minimal, there is not even a significant change on the panel, but there is something in the originally empty occupation and vocational skills.

But the most important thing is actually professional ability, real extraordinary ability.

[The experience of the black iron level spell 'shrinking the ground', the current progress is 58/100.]

After a bunch of general skills, Lu Ping'an flipped to the "clutter bar", and there was this one among them...... Now, it's clickable and more detailed.

Shrinking the ground is a supernatural ability that can only be possessed by first-order runners.

If you master it at the beginning, you can make every five steps of running, and there is an extra step.

This means that there may be a "one-step teleportation" in battle, which doesn't sound like much, but the actual combat value is extremely high.

Occupational experience is summarized into vocational skills, and vocational skills are improved to professional standards through polishing.

Under normal circumstances, only by practicing the "running method" and "breathing method" to the extreme, it is possible to awaken this supernatural level of professional ability to "shrink the ground".

And only those who have mastered supernatural professional abilities can advance to the first order of professions, and can be regarded as a real entry.

In the Oriental parlance, it is "the Duke of Ku to solve the cow, from the technology to the Tao".

This often requires a flash of inspiration, the favor of fate, and sometimes the awakening is not what you want.

The Lei brothers and sisters paid a lot of money just for an opportunity to break through in a good state.

After the long-term use of the Thunder Fire Blade "shrinking", it was natural to share its use and perception with Lu Ping'an.

[Black Iron Grade Spell Shrinkage: Every five steps, an extra step. 】

Lu Ping'an clicked on the screen in the void, and more messages were fed back.

[Requirements: Chasing light running method LV4, Swift breathing method LV4, spatial perception lv1, shrinking experience 100/100.] 】

"It's not lv10?"

The requirements are much lower than expected, Lu Ping'an smiled, no wonder many people say that it is not difficult for first-order runners to get a job, but it is actually a whim.

The rest is just to make up for the shortcomings

Making something out of nothing, filling in the blanks, is naturally not a difficulty.

Well, it is really possible to become a real professional in fifteen days.

At this moment, Lu Ping'an looked at the playground again, two high-quality leeks...... The customer has never stopped since the buff was added.

Collecting the price is not just to make up for your empty wallet, after the other party pays the price, you will naturally cherish the time and state you bought more, so your own achievements tomorrow will be more enjoyable.

"Work hard, struggle, for our better tomorrow!"
