"Party ......"

When Chen Xiu heard these two words, he subconsciously wanted to reject Doreen.

If he had heard that there was a party to attend, especially if it was a girl's invitation, he might have said yes.

But now it's different.

After fusing the two memories, he became more mature and rational, and he didn't have much interest in partying anymore.

A group of people eating, drinking, and making crazy noise, it was really boring.

"Aren't you interested?"

Doreen could see the embarrassment on Chen Xiu's face at a glance, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

There are very few young people in the federation who do not like to party, and parties have always been the favorite entertainment of young people.

Unless it is the kind of freak with a particularly withdrawn personality, but the past few days of getting along make her know very well that Chen Xiu is not that kind of person.

"There's really no interest."

Chen Xiu told the truth, he was going to refuse Doreen like this.

But when he saw Doreen's eyes, he couldn't help but change his mind.

"But if it's your party, I'll go there."

"Then that's it, I'll call you then."

Seeing that Chen Xiu agreed, Doreen seemed very happy.

"Need my help preparing for the party?" Chen Xiu asked.

"No, I'll do it alone." Doreen shook her head and said, "It's just a small party, I don't have many friends here. ”

After agreeing on the party, the two began to exchange souls again.

The two of them have been talking about this topic for several days in a row.

So far, they have been in various hypothetical stages.

After all, the soul is so ethereal that there is no way to verify whether it really exists.

In this case, it is naturally impossible for the two of them to really research something.

The time soon came to noon, and Doreen also said goodbye to Chen Xiu and prepared to go home for dinner.

"I'll go first, see you tomorrow."

Doreen only comes to the library in the mornings and usually has other things to do in the afternoon.

"Goodbye." Chen Xiu waved at her, "But I shouldn't be here tomorrow." ”

"Not coming?"

Doreen's footsteps suddenly stopped, and her face was a little stunned.

She asked, somewhat uncertainly, "Have you found the answer you wanted?" ”

"Nope." Chen Xiu shook his head, "It's just that I'm not interested in it at first." ”

There is another layer of reason.

Originally, because of the fusion of the two memories, his self-perception was shaken and deviated, which made his heart full of confusion in the first few days.

And after so many days, although he didn't find an answer, the confusion in his heart had almost dissipated.

Of course, there is no need to explain this reason to Doreen.

"Is the enthusiasm fading?" Doreen nodded in understanding, and asked again, "Then there are so many days of vacation in the future, what are you going to do?" ”

"Exercise." Chen Xiu rolled up his sleeves, revealing his arm that was not strong, "I'm going to take advantage of this time to exercise and strengthen my body." ”

"Really? That's great! ”

Doreen looked very happy after listening to Chen Xiu's words.

"Boys should be stronger," she said, "and honestly you're getting a little too thin right now." ”

In the federal country, the most popular girls in schools are always the strong boys, even the top girls like Doreen.

Chen Xiu couldn't deny it.

Since fusing another memory, he has felt very dissatisfied with his current thin body.

It's just that because the body has not recovered before, I haven't exercised for a long time.

Now it's almost time to get started.

He is now 172 tall and weighs 56kg, which is indeed too thin overall.

There is no way to do this in terms of height, but you can increase your weight appropriately.

So his current plan is to gain weight first, with a goal of 60kg for the time being, and do some strength training while gaining weight.

……

Doreen left the library and went home, and Chen Xiu stayed alone for a while, staying until twelve o'clock before leaving the library.

When he came out of the library, he didn't go to the roadside restaurant to eat.

Instead, I walked a little way to the next neighborhood, found a roadside food truck, and bought a cheese roll for lunch.

For the same cheese roll, the price of a fast-food restaurant is almost a third more expensive than a roadside food truck.

He has limited change, and he will need some expenses for fitness in the future, so he must save as much money as possible.

Chen Xiu was eating cheese rolls and walking on the road, while thinking about the afternoon's itinerary.

He wasn't going to go to the library in the afternoon, and in fact he probably wouldn't have gone there in the morning if it hadn't been for the fact that he hadn't met Doreen and told her that he wouldn't be going to the library again.

In the afternoon, Chen Xiu was going to take a walk around the city and find a few gyms.

There is no doubt that the efficiency of exercising in the gym is definitely higher than that of a person blindly tinkering at home.

Of course, Chen Xiu's funds are limited, and he must not be able to afford a coach.

At most, you can only have one membership and use the equipment in the gym.

Therefore, his main itinerary in the afternoon is to find a few more gyms, compare the charging standards of each gym, and finally choose a gym that he can afford and has a better environment to apply for membership.

"Bang!"

The sudden sound of gunfire woke up Chen Xiu, and without thinking about it, he rushed to the side of the road and hid behind a small car.

Not only Chen Xiu, but other passers-by were the same, who immediately scattered and fled after the gunshots rang out.

Suddenly there was a small chaos in the neighborhood.

In the past, everyone may not have reacted so violently, but since the recent tragedy of two multi-person shootings, which caused 8 deaths and 6 injuries and 11 deaths and 3 injuries respectively, many people have begun to become extremely sensitive.

No one knows whether the man with the gun is just a whim, a gangster who robs at gunpoint, or a psychopathic murderer with mental problems.

No one dares to bet, so now when everyone hears the gunshots, their first reaction is to run away.

"Just come out for lunch...... Luck doesn't have to be so bad, right? ”

Chen Xiu took a hard bite of the cheese roll in his hand, and carefully poked his head out to observe the situation.

And at this moment, two more gunshots rang out.

This also allowed Chen Xiu to lock on to the source of the gunshot, which came from an alley not far ahead.

And from this gunshot, it can be heard that the other party is using a small-caliber pistol, which makes the tension in Chen Xiu's heart suddenly ease a lot.

As he ate, he stared at the mouth of the alley, when he soon saw a guy in a helmet rushing out of it with a black bag, and a gun in the other.

"It turned out to be a robbery ......"

When Chen Xiu saw this scene, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Unless he took the initiative to rush out to stop that guy, the other party would not bother to pay attention to an ordinary passerby like him, so there was basically no need to worry about any danger.

The robber on the other side was obviously a new man, and although he wore a helmet to cover his face, he forgot to cover his other conspicuous insignia.

For example, the six-pointed star tattoo on his neck.

And the robbers looked unusually nervous.

When the robber ran out of the alley, he was too flustered to notice the curb steps under his feet, and he actually stepped on the air and threw a big heel, throwing out the gun and bag in his hand.

And it seems that because he ran in too much hurry, the zipper of the black bag was not closed, and it was thrown out like this, and a lot of shiny things fell out of it.

Most were necklaces and rings, as well as mirrors encrusted with gemstones, hairbrushes suspected to be made of ivory, and porcelain shattered to pieces......

The robber immediately crouched nervously and cleaned up in a haphazard manner, and after hastily collecting his things, he stepped onto a motorcycle parked on the side of the road and drove away with the accelerator.

Seeing the robbers leaving, Chen Xiu walked out from behind the car.

Others also walked out of their hiding places, some took out their mobile phones to call the police, and some went to the alley to check the situation.

Chen Xiu didn't follow the past to join in the fun.

Security in Tannar is not good, with a gang fire just last month, and robberies are commonplace, almost every week.

So there's nothing to see.

Just as Chen Xiu was about to leave, he was suddenly flashed to his eyes by a reflection.

He followed the reflection and saw an ancient silver coin of a simple shape appear in his sight.

“…… This is? ”

Chen Xiu immediately recognized that this was something that had fallen out of the robber's black bag just now.

Apparently, the robbers were in too much of a hurry to pick it up, and some things that had fallen farther away were missed.

He walked over and found that there was not only one such ancient silver coin, but two ancient silver coins that had fallen into the green belt.

Chen Xiu picked up the three ancient silver coins from the ground.

"Do you want to give it back?"

Just as Chen Xiu was looking at the few ancient silver coins in his hand, and was thinking about whether to return to their owners, an unexpected thing happened.

[Experience value detected...... Start Absorbing]

【EXP +7】

【EXP +7】

【EXP +7】

The data panel suddenly appeared in Chen Xiu's sight, and at the same time, these lines of small words jumped out.

As soon as these experience points were absorbed, plus the original experience, his current experience was now 24 points.

Chen Xiu was taken aback by this change and stared at the ancient silver coin in his hand in astonishment.

He wasn't stupid, and of course he could see that all these experience points were absorbed from these three ancient silver coins.

"This ancient silver coin can actually give me experience points?"

After Chen Xiu's initial surprise, he quickly calmed down, and his gaze at the ancient silver coin became extremely hot.

Since the appearance of this dashboard, he has tried many ways, but has never been able to find an effective way to earn experience points.

Unexpectedly, he made a mistake today, but it allowed him to finally solve this problem.

Chen Xiu's first reaction after calming down was to continue to search on the ground to see if he could find a few more ancient silver coins.

He was lucky enough to find a fourth ancient silver coin deep in the bushes of the green belt.

With the arrival of 7 experience points of the fourth ancient silver coin, Chen Xiu's experience points have now become 31 points.

At the same time, on the data panel, a '+' sign slowly appeared behind the [Level] item.

"Is this a condition for upgrading...... Finally, I can verify whether this dashboard is a creation of my imagination. ”

Chen Xiu looked at the '+' sign, and as soon as his mind moved, the '+' sign suddenly flickered, as if someone had pressed it with his fingers.

Phew!

Vaguely, Chen Xiu seemed to hear the air flow hissing through his ears, and his whole body was numb, as if an electric current was flowing through his body.

This lasted only for a moment, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if everything was just his hallucination.

It's just that the feeling of full strength in the whole body tells Chen Xiu that all this is true.

He looked at the data panel again, and the data on it had changed.

[Level: 2]

[Attributes: Strength 1.1, Physique 0.9]

[Current Experience: 31/75]

[Available Experience: 1]

Chen Xiu looked at the data at this moment, tightly held the ancient silver coin in his hand, and forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart.

At this point, he was completely convinced that this dashboard was real, not something he had imagined.

"What a big change!"

Chen Xiu's five fingers were spread out, clenched into fists, feeling the full sense of power, and his heart was full of amazement.

Even though his current strength value is only 1.1, it doesn't seem to be that high.

But compared to the original 0.7, it has increased by half of the original strength, which is really a very exaggerated improvement!

And the color of the numbers has also returned to normal, no longer that blood-red.

"Tick~" "Tick~"

Suddenly, the sound of police car horns came from far and near, and a patrol police car drove from a distance.

The police car came very quickly, apparently patrolling a short distance nearby, and rushed over after someone called the police.

Soon the police car stopped on the side of the road outside the alleyway, and two police officers stepped out of the car.

Chen Xiu looked at the ancient silver coins in his hand, then at the two police officers, thought about it and put the four ancient silver coins into his pocket first, turned around and left the scene.

……

After leaving the scene, Chen Xiu returned to the library and looked up the materials of the ancient silver coins in the library.

The process went very smoothly, and after a lot of effort, he was able to find the source of these ancient silver coins from a "Monetary History of the World".

According to the book, these ancient silver coins were the currency of the ancient Arigabine continent called the Samon Kingdom, which has a history of seven or eight hundred years.

The country of Samon was destroyed in the war more than 700 years ago, but the number of Samon coins that have been handed down is very large, and it belongs to the kind of antique currency that has a certain collection value, but the value is not high.

Now that the origin of these ancient silver coins has been figured out, the rest of the matter is much simpler.

What Chen Xiu was going to do next was to look for other Brake Coins and see if other Brake Coins could also provide experience points.

If all the brakes provide experience, then everything will be fine.

After making up his mind, Chen Xiu collected several brake coins and left the library.

He rode his small bicycle again to the street where the robbery had taken place at noon, and found the alley.

The alley is just over a meter wide, which can be described as very narrow, but there is a world of things inside, and there are small shops in the depths of the alley.

Not far from entering the alley, Chen Xiu found the goal of his trip.

An antique shop.
