Under the apocalyptic civilization, resources are scarce, and it is common to fight, change hands, and exchange.

The former leader of the Fire Rat Gang is an alcoholic and has a brutal personality. When Zheng Xiu broke into the abandoned subway car, there were many empty wine bottles lying in the car.

But to Zheng Xiu's surprise, he then found a complete set of coffee utensils in the warehouse of the Fire Rat Gang, as well as a few cans of aged beans that had been stored for an unknown amount of time.

This is obviously not in line with the taste of the fire rat, and it is very likely that the "material" left by the previous owner of the camp, because it is well preserved and very precious, and it is put in the warehouse by the fire rat in the dust, waiting for someone to exchange it for other precious materials.

"Oh! Not bad. ”

Two lives, when Zheng Xiu found this thing, even if it was an old bean, Zheng Xiu couldn't help but be surprised, and an inexplicable feeling quietly grew in his heart. He opened the lid and smelled it, and found a clean room, boiled hot water, ground the beans into a fine powder, and carefully spread out the well-preserved filter paper into a filter bowl.

Brewing a cup with a not-so-standard technique, Zheng Xiu snapped his fingers casually, and the residual moisture in the air was instantly drained, forming blocks of ice in the void and falling into the cup.

A simple iced coffee is complete.

Zheng Xiu sat on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, and took a sip of ice coffee.

"Ah......h

Zheng Xiu let out a sigh.

"This thing...... Is it delicious? ”

The orange cat saw Zheng Xiu's expression of enjoyment, one eye widened and the other narrowed, expressing reasonable doubts about the taste of the black hemp liquid.

"Try?"

Zheng Xiu smiled and handed the cup with the red worker holding a fist to Anne.

Anne was silent for a moment.

Stuck out his pink tongue and licked it.

"Gross-"

The next second, the little female cat was retching violently on her stomach.

After vomiting like morning sickness, the orange cat continued to squat beside Zheng Xiu, watching Zheng Xiu drink crude iced coffee with relish, revealing a look of thinking about life and palpitations. She seemed to wonder whether the appearance of that cup of coffee was a distortion of divinity, or a moral degradation, or human inaction.

"By the way, meow, your throwing knife ......"

There was a chaotic cry outside, and the camp of the Fire Rat Gang was in a kind of emotional release for the rest of its life because of the death of the Fire Rat. The orange cat finds this hysterical wailing and wailing of humans boring, so she tries to turn her attention elsewhere. She remembered the move Zheng Xiu used when he killed humans, and in her opinion, this method of directly pinching the "power of authority" into shapes and throwing it out was too low-end and the pattern was not big.

"What happened to that throwing knife?"

"So, your 'prisoner', after breaking the rules, did leave something on you?"

Zheng Xiu drank ice coffee, rubbed his thumb from time to time, rubbed some ice cubes to keep the temperature at zero degrees, and smiled slightly: "Isn't it easy to understand?" The cage is broken, and I am free, but at the same time, I have lost the convenience of being a prisoner, and that prison of the heart can enter the ghost...... Oh, I guess there won't be any serious ghosts in the future, so I filled in that hole, and there was a new avatar card. If you break out of prison, you must pay a price. ”

"But I did find ...... in that sea of empty spirits A piece of fragment. A fragment of a cage. ”

Zheng Xiu closed his eyes, rubbed the pimple left on his forehead, and fell into deep thought: "That fragment seems to remind me that I can't forget this experience, and I can't forget everything I experienced when I was imprisoned. ”

"I think it'...... Leaving a 'variable' behind. ”

The orange cat frowned, Zheng Xiu said well in the front, but suddenly became illusory in the back. "Variables?" The orange cat carefully repeated the two words - she feared that it was an existing "authority" who would alarm the other party by name.

"I think the reason why my 'correction' is in this shape is inseparable from that fragment." As soon as Zheng Xiu raised his index finger, he was jumped up by the orange cat and stepped back, and the orange cat glared at Zheng Xiu angrily: "How many times have you said don't meow on other turf to show your authority!" Why do you think it's 'variable'? ”

Zheng Xiu gently tapped the position of his temple with a finger, and smiled wryly: "I don't want to say 'I think' if I know." ”

"It seems that we are in a similar situation."

The orange cat patted Zheng Xiu's shoulder with a meat ball in an old-fashioned manner. For the first time, she put Zheng Xiu on the same level as herself, even if it was just for a moment, just for a moment, just in a "difficult situation". This is already a rare thing for Anne, who is arrogant and self-pressuring.

The orange cat showed a look of "sister is from the past" and grabbed Zheng Xiu's fingertips.

"That's not how authority works."

"How do you use that?" Zheng Xiu became curious.

"It varies from god to god, and it comes naturally."

"So what are you talking about?"

Zheng Xiu couldn't cry or laugh.

"But, it's a bit of a quick fix." The orange cat winked triumphantly at Zheng Xiu.

Zheng Xiu magically turned his palm, and another bat brand can appeared in his palm.

The orange cat stared at the bat cans for a few seconds, "Ahh The angry orange cat's fur rose to the sky, slapped out with a palm, the can was silently dented, and the bat pattern was erased by a mark in the shape of a meat ball, and the orange cat was furious, terrifying.

Lady Anne happily took the "unknown can" into her arms, rubbed it with her face, and stuck out her tongue from time to time to lick it. It seems to be licking the residual smell of Fengbei on the jar.

The orange cat is a person who loves and hates, one is one, two is two, the trademark belongs to the trademark, the inside belongs to the inside, and the trademark is erased and has nothing to do with the dead bat. Besides, turning the pattern of the dead bat into its own shape is not an alternative minotaur...... Hey! The orange cat's eyes suddenly lit up, as if they had discovered a new continent.

This makes sense!

The orange cat was shocked by her own thoughts.

Okay, that's it!

Gotta make that dead bat pay the price!

The orange cat hugged the "unknown can" and made a strange determination.

Zheng Xiu looked at the orange cat holding the can, and his expression changed a few times. He sensed a strange emotion in the trembling fur on the orange cat's face. Excited? Forbidden pleasure? Zheng Xiu couldn't tell.

After waiting for a while, the orange cat was satisfied, she pressed the can under her ass, squatted on the can and said, "The speed at which you become a god is still too fast." ”

"Fast?" Zheng Xiu was stunned when he heard this: "Counting the days of reincarnation, there are more than a thousand years. ”

"What is a thousand years?" The orange cat rolled her eyes, looking like a little broken child who had never seen the world, and said, "Nian is a tool used by your inferior beings to measure time. ”

But when you have eternal life, when the long time becomes boring, the so-called eternal life will also become a curse. If you have the opportunity to go out in the future, don't say how many years and how many years, shame. ”

"What do you say then?" Zheng Xiu sat up straight.

"'Ji', in the eyes of the master, the alternation of time, life, and the world is measured by 'Ji'."

"One era, is it a hundred years?" Zheng Xiu thought for a moment.

"Wrong." The orange cat shook his head: "From the birth to the destruction of a civilization, it is called the 'One Age'. God and the Lord should be on high above, as the observer and controller of the inferior life, and should be the rise and fall of the inferior civilization as the unit of measurement of time. ”

"A blink, a yawn, a breath, a meditation, a deep sleep, can you know how long it has been? Hehe, you won't know, the only thing that can be used as a record is the rise and fall of the civilization under your control, and the traces of this civilization recorded in the log or history books can be used as a 'first era'. This 'one era' is as short as hundreds of years and as long as tens of thousands of years. Hey? I seem to be far away. The orange cat reacted, the soft and swollen cat's belly moved, changed to a more comfortable position on the can, and continued: "In short, it can be seen that the process of your becoming a god is too fast, unbelievably fast, incredible. ”

Zheng Xiu thought about it, according to the orange cat, his thousand years were indeed nothing.

"So, you don't know how to use 'authority,' and rightfully so. You are now like a child who has mastered a peerless artifact, only wielding it indiscriminately, but there is no way to use it accordingly. ”

"Didn't you say it would come naturally?" The corners of Zheng Xiu's eyes twitched.

"It's a matter of course, it will take four or five epochs of effort, it's almost there."

"Then if I completely destroy this world now, will it be counted as an era?"

“…… Are you a demon? The orange cat complained, but thought seriously for a while: "Count." ”

"Huh?"

"But it's not necessary, it's a waste of time, for the sake of the canned food, for the sake of Fengbei, I'll tell you the quick way now."

"Elaborate."

"As a simple example, if you had a pistol, what would you do with it?" The orange cat stretched out its paws and made a gesture of holding a gun.

“…… Shoot? The dignified master asked such a low-level question, which made Zheng Xiu a little unsure, wondering if there was another higher-end answer.

"What if you were given a sword?"

"Thorns?"

"How about giving you a knife?"

"Cut?"

The orange cat smiled inscrutablely: "That's the answer." ”

Zheng Xiu: "-_-??? ”

"The transition from human nature to divinity is not as simple as removing the meanness and impurities in human nature. This is your inherent impression, the inertia of being born as a human being. If you were to give up your current appearance and become another life completely, would you be willing? ”

"Then we'll have to see what kind of creature it becomes." Zheng Xiu answered honestly.

The orange cat silently pointed to the worn-out cup.

Zheng Xiu shook his head.

"Oh, mere god." The orange cat sneered with disdain.

Zheng Xiu understood, no wonder the masters were all strange things.

Cats, bats or something.

Zheng Xiu didn't understand: "What does that have to do with what you said about 'quick success'?" ”

"Yes." The orange cat moved his buttocks and pressed the can: "After the initial birth period, authority will gradually evolve into other appearances, and this process is very long, and it is related to the preferences, experiences, and perceptions of a god or a master. That's what I call a matter of course. ”

"For example?"

"For example......" The orange cat thought for a moment, and suddenly remembered the can under his buttocks, and suddenly his anger soared, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That dead bat has a shovel in his hand, phew! It's a pair of shovels! ”

"Shovel?" Zheng Xiu was stunned: "This is the same as ...... Ahem, what does it matter with the authority to 'you who can't say anything you can't sleep'? ”

Zheng Xiu involuntarily made up a picture of a ghost animal with a bat in his head, holding a shovel in both hands, a shovel on the left and a shovel on the right.

Blame.

"Do you think it matters if there is a relationship? It is enough as long as its very existence, its divinity, recognizes the connection between this appearance and authority. ”

The orange cat's tone was stunned, and she thought of the dead bat again and again, which made her mood turn upside down again, which became a thorn in her heart and a pain point. After finally calming down, the orange cat continued: "The shape of the authority will make it a more handy weapon for you, and you will subconsciously know how to use it, just as you know that knives are used to slash and swords are used to stab. ”

"What do you mean...... Probably a reflex of God? Zheng Xiu understood the orange cat's statement in his own way: "That is to say, with authority as the core, after I learned about this matter, I consciously, actively, and deliberately, to create a suitable ...... for this authority Shape, or rather...... Enclosure...... Attitude? In this way, can the power of authority be properly exercised? Zheng Xiu lowered his head, he was a god after all, the orange cat's point made him see the sun, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he muttered to himself: "Yes, your 'elegance' and my 'revision' are extremely abstract concepts, what I want to do is to embody 'abstract'." ”

"Moreover, wrapping the 'authority' in the 'shell' also has another two benefits." The orange cat smiled: "First, authority is the source, but at the same time, authority is also fragile, coveted by other beings, will be destroyed by them, will be destroyed by them, the shell has the role of protecting authority; Second, the authority wrapped in the shell can hide the breath of authority to the greatest extent, at least, it cannot be seen without deliberately looking at it. At this point, you can set up the second layer of 'shell'. ”

Zheng Xiu drank coffee and thought about it for a while, but he still felt abstract. At this time, he looked at the orange cat that was about to move with the can, and wondered: "By the way, what is the 'shell' of your authority, I have never seen it." ”

When the orange cat heard this, his face was proud: "Nature is the ultimate elegance." ”

"Not broken yet?"

“…… Woooooooo The orange cat's pride vanished because of Zheng Xiu's words, revealing a crying face. Zheng Xiu understood, broken, not completely broken.

After crying for a while, the strong Anne once again cleaned up her mood: "I have created two shells for 'elegance', 'pseudonym' and 'real name', of course, it doesn't matter what the shell is called, you can like it." ”

"Great, noble, arrogant, immortal, broken but not completely broken, Lord Anne, take a look?"

The orange cat thought for a moment and agreed: "Okay, let you see and understand." ”

As he spoke, the orange cat snapped his fingers with his paws, and his breath changed and became ethereal.

"Come out, Monica."

As soon as Anne's words fell, Zheng Xiu's breathing suddenly stagnated. I saw the void behind the orange cat, suddenly a bizarre twist, and a pair of "jade feet" that Zheng Xiu didn't know what words to use to describe them, leaned out elegantly from behind Anne.

Slender and fair-skinned, plump and round, dust-free, crystal clear, white and tender, as beautiful as jade...... It seems that the most beautiful adjectives that Zheng Xiu can think of fall on that pair of "jade feet", which is a blasphemy against that pair of jade feet.

Pair?

A "person" walked out of the distorted void, Zheng Xiu looked away with difficulty, his gaze moved upwards from the pair of jade feet, and out of behind Anne was actually a ...... wearing a black leather miniskirt with smooth feet and extreme elegance Catwoman.

Half of Catwoman's face was shattered, leaving only a black black hole, while the right half of her face blinked with green cat pupils, staring at Zheng Xiu without emotion.

Zheng Xiu looked at "Monica", although her face was half broken, it could be seen that Monica did live up to the name of elegance when she was complete, and she was quite "jade". Zheng Xiu also noticed that there seemed to be some gaps on Monica's face, like some kind of mechanical joints.

"What about your real name?"

"You're thinking about fart! Releasing 'real names' here is a full-scale war? ”

The orange cat glared at Zheng Xiu angrily, and with a wave of his paws, he put Monica away.

did not see the complete posture of "elegance" with his own eyes, Zheng Xiu was quite regretful. But when the emotion of "regret" was born, Zheng Xiu smiled dumbly, was this regret imperceptibly affected by "elegance"?

After taking a few deep breaths and removing the image of "Monica" from his mind, Zheng Xiu's expression was calm: "So, the image of the shell can even be some kind of creature?" ”

"Monica is not a creature." The orange cat shook his head: "It's a pure shell." In short, the quick way has been told to you, you should think about it. If you're lucky, you'll leave the ship with little more than a sign of it. ”

Although the orange cat is quite optimistic about Zheng Xiu's potential, at least it has to be next time, there is always a limit to being born a god, it won't be so outrageous, just tell you that you can rub it out immediately, what about trouble?

As soon as the orange cat's voice fell, Zheng Xiu nodded silently and took a sip of coffee.

There was a cautious knock outside the door, and Zheng Xiu put down his cup: "Come in." ”

Mia walked into the carriage with a stack of books in her hand.

The top one, with a cover depicting once tropical landscapes, and sexy and hot blondes.

Mia seems to think that Zheng Xiu will want to read this one.
