"What about you? Why did you choose the danger level for the first life and death test mission? Seeing that Chen Rui was silent, Zi Ming asked rhetorically.

Chen Rui glanced at Zi Ming and said lightly:

"Danger is for an average genius like you, and it's a no-brainer for me to accomplish this task."

As he spoke, he spread out his palms and made a flipping motion, emphasizing: "It's as easy as a snap!" ”

Zi Ming raised her eyebrows, looking incredulous:

"You've mastered the sixfold realm, and you're not necessarily much better than me."

Chen Rui snorted:

"If you don't believe it, forget it, I can beat 10,000 like you."

In fact, let alone 10,000, even if it was hundreds of millions of planet-level ninth-order martial artists like Zi Ming, before they could make a move, Chen Rui would be able to cast their dreams to make them fight by themselves.

As long as the enemy can be deeply affected by the Illusion, the number of enemies is completely meaningless to Chen Rui.

Seeing Chen Rui so confident, Zi Ming couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he still hid a lot of strength, so how terrible his true potential should be.

Maybe...... Maybe he will have the hope of becoming an immortal powerhouse in the future!?

As soon as she thought of this, Zi Ming's heart couldn't help but move.

She brewed her emotions for a while, and said sincerely:

"Chen Rui, we're friends, right?"

Chen Rui nodded: "Sort of." ”

If he hadn't treated Ziming as a friend, Chen Rui wouldn't have had to say so much before. After all, it has nothing to do with him where Zi Ming spends the start-up capital.

In the past year, it may be because the same batch has become a super-elite that the two are naturally closer, and in the lecture hall of the Black Dragon Mountain branch, the communication between him and Ziming is the most. Zi Ming is also his first friend in the universe.

Is this what is called friendship between classmates? Chen Rui thought to himself.

When Zi Ming heard that Chen Rui regarded her as a friend, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes, and she asked:

"So, can you accompany me to a place?"

"Yes." Chen Rui bowed slightly, he could see that this Zi Ming should have something to ask him.

"Thank you!" Zi Ming stood up and walked out of the house.

Chen Rui also followed closely and followed.

******

On a high mountain not far from the Ziming tribe, the mountains are full of gray graves.

Zi Ming skillfully led Chen Rui to a tombstone.

I saw a black and white portrait of a man painted on the tombstone, he was wearing long hair, his eyes were sharp, as if he was looking at the enemy, and his facial features were somewhat similar to Zi Ming.

"Daddy, I'm here to see you, I didn't come with my mother this time."

Zi Ming put down the fruit she had brought for the offering and placed the yellow bouquet in front of her father's grave.

Then, she folded her hands and kowtowed three times to her father, and the whole mountain trembled slightly.

"What are you doing so hard......"

"My mother said that the louder the kowtow, the only people below can hear it."

Zi Ming smiled and touched her slightly reddened forehead. Obviously, the stone in front of the tombstone was also made of special materials, and a planet-level ninth-order powerhouse didn't crack that stone.

Then, Zi Ming's eyes dimmed slightly, and her tone was slightly sentimental:

"It's a pity that this is just my father's burial mound, my father's remains were left on the border battlefield, and no one collected his body. No matter how loud I knock, he shouldn't be able to hear it. ”

She glanced around again, with a hint of self-deprecation:

"In fact, almost all of the graves on this hill of our tribe are clothed and mounded. After my people died on the battlefield on the border, there was no one to collect their bodies. Of course, even the corpses may have been eaten by the demon beasts. ”

Seeing that Chen Rui didn't speak, she pointed to the tombstone next door:

"The tombstone next door belongs to a grandmother, and she taught me martial arts when I was a child, but it seems like no one has come to worship her for a long time. I don't know if her relatives have forgotten or are all dead. ”

As she spoke, Zi Ming took a small fresh fruit from her father's offering table, respectfully placed it in front of the incense burner on the tombstone next door, folded her hands, and prayed silently for a while.

"I think that after a person dies, if there are descendants or relatives and friends to pay respects, then he is not completely dead. Just like my father, he still lives in the hearts of my mother and me.

"However, if my mother and I also die, there may be other people who remember me and my mother, but no one will remember my father.

"However, the war between the human race and the demon beast clan on the Chiyan Continent will continue forever. One day, everyone in our tribe I know will die in the war. Then, no one remembers me and my mother. ”

Hearing this, Chen Rui was moved:

"In my hometown, there is a saying that there are three deaths. The first time was when your heart stopped beating, the second time was at your funeral, and the third time was when no one remembered you. And the third death, that is, the real death. ”

Zi Ming pondered for a moment, bowing slightly, as if she agreed with Chen Rui's statement:

"This statement of your hometown is really vivid, and that's what I want to say. I don't want the day when all of my tribe dies, in the true sense of the word, no one remembers it. ”

The two then fell into a long silence.

About half an hour later, Chen Rui broke the silence:

"So, what do you want to say to me?"

Zi Ming brewed for a long time, and slowly spoke, with a hint of begging in his tone:

"Chen Rui, I want to ask you, if you can achieve immortality one day, you have a certain status in the Black Dragon Mountain Branch of the Virtual Universe Company, can you ...... Can you remove my hometown, Chiyan Continent, from the land of life and death trials and make it truly the territory of human beings. Don't let the humans here fight with the monsters endlessly. ”

"Why don't you do it yourself? This is your own hometown. Chen Rui asked rhetorically.

Zi Ming smiled bitterly:

"I asked Lord Styl before how I could move the Chiyan Continent out of the Land of Trials. Lord Shenyu said, either I can enter the headquarters of the virtual universe company and become a real core member of the virtual universe company. Either I can achieve immortality and have a certain status in the Black Dragon Mountain Branch of the Virtual Universe Company.

"In the past year, I have also read countless materials, and I also know that there are countless predecessors in my Chiyan Continent who have also been absorbed by the Black Dragon Mountain Branch of the Virtual Universe Company. But none of my countless predecessors have been able to do any of what Lord Stygian said. I...... I don't have the confidence to do something that countless predecessors can't.

"What's more...... I guess I'm going to die in this life-and-death test mission. ”

Hearing this, Chen Rui took a deep breath, and then-

A chestnut smashed on Zi Ming's head.

"The rise of an ethnic group depends on the efforts of countless strong people in the ethnic group. If your ancestors can't do it, then you, as the best genius in this generation, should fight for the future of the race, instead of saying frustrating words here! ”

Subsequently, Chen Rui's words changed:

"Of course, as your friend, I will not watch you die in this test of life and death. You will follow me in this test of life and death, and I will take you to complete the test of life and death together. After that, I won't care about you, but I'll keep an eye on you from time to time. If you can make it to the headquarters of the virtual universe company on your own, or achieve immortality, that's the best.

"But if you die on the road to the strong, then I'll see how you performed during your lifetime. If I find out that you are slacking off, then I will not care about your race. And if you do try your best and you still can't achieve your goal, then I might consider helping your people.

"Don't worry, immortality is not my ultimate goal, sooner or later I will climb to the pinnacle of the human race!

"When the time comes, I think it will be easy to save your people. It's the same as if I hit 10,000 of you now. ”

Chen Rui spread out his palms and made a hand-turning motion, emphasizing: "It's as easy as a snap!" ”

Zi Ming covered the bulging bag on her head, but the corners of her eyes were smiling, and she stared at Chen Rui silently for a long time.

Finally, she said softly:

"Thank you, I'll repay you!"
