What's it like to be pampered by eight mutated cat cubs + N powerful ability users and witness the crematorium moment of your toxic family in the apocalypse? Qiao He says: Awesome~
Seriou...
When Xiao Bo Shi Wu brought Qiao He back, seeing the astonished expressions on the faces of the mercenaries, she knew in her heart that Qiao He was definitely not one of them, and that meeting her in the forest was purely by chance.
Of course, this was just what Bo Shiwu was thinking; Qiao He had deliberately come to get close to him.
After that, Qiao He fabricated a particularly pitiful backstory for herself, saying that she was maliciously thrown into the forest to fend for herself. She was only five or six years old. If she didn't have the wilderness survival skills of Bo Shiwu, she would be comparable to a special forces soldier.
Then he definitely wouldn't last more than a few days before dying.
Qiao He expressed her desire to join them and become a cool and powerful female mercenary.
The group laughed at her, saying, "You're just a weak little girl, and you want to be a mercenary? I don't think you can even endure hardship. It's not easy being in our line of work; you never know when you might die in a sneak attack."
"Young lady, are you sure?" the mercenary asked her.
Qiao He said with a determined look in her eyes, "I'm sure, I'm going to stay! I want to avenge my parents!"
The mercenaries were stunned by the determination in Zhu Yuan's eyes. They decided to accept Qiao He, but at the same time, Qiao He also had to undergo rigorous training.
And so, Qiao He was able to stay.
She could continue to stay by Xiao Boshiwu's side, playing the role of an ordinary little mercenary.
After entering Bo Shiwu's consciousness space, Qiao He didn't actually know how to wake him up.
After being attacked, Bo Shiwu has been in a deep sleep, and even if the sky were to fall outside, he would not be able to wake up.
In other words, he was a true living dead, a person in a vegetative state.
This was the only way Qiao He could help him.
The "Playing it Off" system once mentioned that perhaps something important in Bo Shiwu's consciousness space could stimulate his emotions and arouse his desire to wake up, which would be half the battle won.
This might be the way to break the deadlock.
Qiao He tried various methods to stimulate Xiao Bo Shiwu, but all sorts of random stimulations were completely useless and only served to make his presence known to him.
Because Xiao Bo Shiwu's emotions are very calm, nothing can anger him or even make him laugh.
It's like... like some kind of robot!
Qiao He is going crazy.
The days and nights she spent here gave her the feeling that she had also spent a long time in the outside world, a sense of bewilderment that made it difficult to distinguish between reality and conscious space.
She can't contact the "play it safe" system here either, so it keeps reminding her from time to time.
So every night before going to sleep, Qiao He would silently recite, "I must wake up Bo Shiwu," before closing her eyes and starting to rest.
Training with these mercenaries was obviously extremely unpleasant. Several times, in an effort to toughen Qiao He up, they even cruelly threw her into a swarm of cockroaches. The cockroaches, big and small, swarmed all over Qiao He's small body, making her feel utterly disgusted.
Although the thing was easy to kill, in order not to let Bo Shiwu notice anything strange, Qiao He stubbornly held back her tears, looking like a stubborn little white flower, and started to crawl out of the cockroach pit while crying.
I don't know if it's the mercenaries' twisted sense of humor or what, but none of the people here are normal.
After all, no normal person would think of becoming a mercenary without a country or faith, only interested in money. As long as the other party pays, they would do whatever they are asked to kill, no matter who it is!
They only believe in "money".
Qiao He didn't know if Bo Shiwu was like that, but she remembered the first time she met Bo Shiwu, his eyes were icy cold, and in order to save her life, he didn't hesitate to handcuff Qiao He's wrists, even though at that time Qiao He was just an ordinary-looking girl.
He also wanted to seize his last chance to live.
Later, even though Bo Shiwu had lost his memory, he still used very subtle language to tell her that disaster was coming and that she should prepare herself.
Qiao He thought to herself, perhaps Bo Shiwu's faith wasn't in money; he just wanted to survive in this world.
