Chapter 31: Awakening and Transcendence
"Aren't vampires and werewolves mortal enemies, and there's no reproductive isolation between the two species?"
Li Rui rubbed the tooth marks on his arm, wiped the saliva off with a tissue, and asked with some curiosity.
In all mythology, vampires and werewolves are opposing races, how did Luo Li's parents come out of this pair?
A fantasy version of Romeo and Juliet?
"It's a bloodline! not a vampire, you're racist!"
Luo Li covered her head and retorted, but her posture of squatting on the ground and looking up at Li Rui was not imposing or convincing at all.
"Bloodlines and werewolves are not reproductively isolated, but they rarely give birth to offspring, so I am a genius who combines the advantages of the two races!"
"So you're a mule?"
"Ahhh
Luo Li jumped wildly.
Under the suppression of Luo Li's bite, Li Rui frowned a little suspiciously.
"A special race like you must have surpassed humans since childhood, right? Why didn't I see you when I was a junior high school student?"
This is also what Li Rui just realized.
If there were an outlier like Luo Li, or an awakened person participating in the competition, he would not be able to kill all sides at all.
And in high school, they came out like mushrooms in the field, where did they die before?
"Eh, don't you know? The Awakened are forbidden to compete at the U15 level, and the Transcendent are forbidden to compete at the U18 level. ”
"Hmm, don't the Awakened and the Transcendent mean the same thing?"
Li Rui always thought that they just expressed themselves differently.
"It's different, the awakened are not necessarily transcendental, and the transcendent is not necessarily the awakened. ”
Luo Li pouted, organized her words, and explained seriously: "Generally speaking, the Awakened refers to ordinary humans who suddenly activate the hidden power in the bloodline or divine soul at a certain point in time, but when they continue to grow to a certain stage and officially enter the lowest energy level, they are called transcendentals. ”
"Black Iron Steps?"
"Yes, all powerful beings who have entered the rank are called transcendental, but not all transcendent beings are awakened!"
"For example, people like us are born as aliens, they don't need to be awakened, they have far more power than mortals in their bloodlines since they were born, and each civilization has its own seekers, who use their mortal bodies to absorb the great power of heaven and earth through cultivation, and the upper limit of growth may not be lower than that of the awakened. ”
"Oh, I see, the Awakened is a narrow concept, referring only to the awakened but not advanced human beings, the Transcendent is a broad concept, and all intelligent beings with extraordinary power can be called Transcendental. ”
Li Rui suddenly realized.
There was a certain overlap between the two words, so he never figured out the subtle difference.
"It's almost understandable. ”
Luo Li nodded in agreement.
"Then reacquaint myself, my name is Li Rui, and I am an awakened person. ”
Smiling and stretching out her hand to Luo Li, she paused for a moment, and quickly reacted, blooming with a beautiful smile.
With her hands on her waist, as if holding an invisible skirt, Luo Li bent down slightly in front of Li Rui: "Princess Fanzhuo Frostwolf - Margaret Robin, I have seen your dear Excellency Li Rui." ”
After saluting, she held Li Rui's hand and shook it lightly twice.
The white and smooth soft water is held in the palm of his hand, Li Rui can't feel any rough calluses, these hands don't look like hands that have been practicing martial arts all year round!
The two looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths smiled tacitly.
The estrangement in their hearts is gone, and the relationship between them seems to be one step closer.
"Let's go, I'll take you to something delicious. ”
Rubbing Luo Li's head, Li Rui walked out with a smile.
"What's delicious? Have you made any new discoveries?"
Wrapping his arms around Li Rui, Luo Li hung half of her body on his arms.
Knowing that Li Rui's mouth was very mouthful, Luo Li was very interested in the good things he said.
Sensing the grandeur of his arm, Li Rui's muscles stiffened a little.
Struggling to calm the throbbing in his heart, he forced himself to forget the touch on his arm and pulled away from the subject.
"There is a Sichuan restaurant not far from the school, and your favorite Mao Xuewang is very authentic. ”
Speaking of this, Li Rui suddenly froze.
No wonder...... Vampires like to eat hairy blood, so there's nothing wrong with it......
It's just that the elegant appearance of the virgin blood tasting tea with a red wine glass in her mind collapsed, and every time Luo Li ate Mao Xuewang, she would eat snot and tears together.
"Hooray!"
Luo Li shouted excitedly, pulled Li Rui and ran.
The figure of the two running across the campus holding hands doesn't know how many ignorant teenagers and girls have been shattered.
On this day, at least half of the whole school posted their "lovelorn" circle of friends......
...........................
"Xiao Wei, I'm back and brought you my favorite sweet and sour pork ribs, as well as Kung Pao Chicken. ”
When he returned home, Li Rui had just changed his shoes and found Li Wei lying on the dining table, with the exercise book scattered all over the place.
Glancing at the data of his teammates in the system panel, Li Rui silently put the dishes on the table, and then went back to his bedroom to wash and change clothes, ignoring her the whole time.
Every day when I go home, I see my sister playing dead...... Is it that hard to write an assignment?
"Woo woo woo...... Brother ......"
When Li Rui came out after changing his clothes, Li Wei immediately rushed up and hugged his waist.
Snot and tears all rubbed against him.
"What's wrong again?"
Li Rui gently picked her up and kissed her aggrieved little face.
"It's okay not to do your homework. ”
"No, I can't. ”
Almost without a hint of hesitation, Li Rui ruthlessly broke her illusions.
"Wow...... Big brother, I hate you!"
Struggling down from Li Rui, Li Wei ran to the restaurant and cried pitifully.
While crying, I didn't forget to eat the sweet and sour pork ribs.
Seeing her choking and gnawing on ribs, Li Ruiqiang in the living room held back a smile and thought about the information he got today.
The battles with Yi Kaicheng and Luo Li only gained experience points, not gold...... Sure enough, you still have to kill lives to get gold.
Maybe...... The so-called system gold is the embodiment of the soul, life, or other thing of the killed target.
But what are the fragments of the basic law?
Looking at the 13-point fragments of the basic law on the panel, Li Rui was puzzled.
There's nothing like that in the game!
System: "Law Fragments are necessary elements for equipment upgrades, and all special attributes need to be smelted and reforged from the Law Fragments of the original plane." ”
Li Rui's pupils shrank suddenly, which meant that upgrading his equipment would be more difficult than he imagined!
Gold...... Gold......
With his fingers tapping lightly on his thighs, Li Rui pondered for a moment, took out his terminal, and called Wang Lei.
