Chapter 36: Filling the Numbers
The bloody villain picked up the crystal of the withered bone general, and suddenly a powerful energy rushed into Zhou Wen's body, like a drill, forcefully opening up a new path.
After the power gradually disappeared, a line of prompts popped up on the game screen: Absorb the crystal of the Skeleton General and comprehend the legendary energy skill Armor-Piercing Gun.
Zhou Wen had originally prepared himself to be injured, but it went unexpectedly smoothly.
A mortal-level body can generally only fuse with mortal-level vitality skills crystals. If it is forcibly integrated with legendary-level vitality skills, the body will be impacted by a powerful force, which can damage the meridians at the least, or even kill on the spot at the worst.
Zhou Wen also relied on his physical fitness being much stronger than that of ordinary mortals, and he was not afraid of death in the game, so he dared to absorb the crystal of the Skeleton General. Unexpectedly, the whole process was very smooth. Apart from the pain when opening up the channel for the flow of vital energy, there was no damage to his body.
"Is it like this in the game, or is it the effect of the Mixian Sutra?" Zhou Wen couldn't be sure of the reason, but it was a good thing after all.
After taking a look at the information in the game, I found that the Armor-Piercing Gun is a legendary Qi skill. However, the Armor-Piercing Gun is a gun-type Qi skill, and it requires the use of a gun weapon to exert its maximum power.
"Li Xuan, come out." Zhou Wen was planning to change a copy and go to the ant nest to try to kill the silver-winged flying ants, but suddenly he heard a woman's voice sounding at the door of the villa, accompanied by the ringing of the doorbell.
Li Xuan should not be there, and Zhou Wen is the only one in his villa.
Although Zhou Wen heard the ringtone, the person who came was looking for Li Xuan, and Li Xuan was not at home. He had no intention of opening the door and just sat on the sofa and continued playing games.
"Li Xuan, I know you are at home. If you don't come out, don't blame me for being rude." The woman pressed the doorbell for a long time, still not giving up.
Zhou Wen pretended not to hear and ignored it completely. The doorbell had no effect on him at all and he continued playing games.
Zhou Benwen thought the woman would leave soon, but who knew that the woman shouted for a while and finally stopped. However, only two seconds later, he heard a bang, followed by two bangs. The woman actually kicked the door open.
The woman rushed into the villa and went straight upstairs when she saw that there was no one in the living room.
She seemed to be very familiar with this place. She went straight to Li Xuan's room without knocking and kicked the door open.
"Li Xuan, it's useless for you to hide today." Seeing that there was still no one in the room, the woman walked along the corridor and kicked open the doors of the rooms next to her one by one.
When she kicked into the second room, the woman saw Zhou Wen leaning against the headboard playing games.
The woman was delighted to see someone, but when she saw it wasn't Li Xuan, she was disappointed again. She glared at Zhou Wen and asked, "What's wrong with you? I've been calling you for a long time, didn't you hear me?"
"I heard it." Zhou Wen answered while playing with his phone, without even looking up at the woman.
"Why didn't you answer if you heard it?" the woman asked angrily.
"You are looking for Li Xuan, not me. What should I answer?" Zhou Wen said casually.
The woman was unable to refute for a moment, and glared at Zhou Wen fiercely and asked, "Where is Li Xuanren?"
"Out." Zhou Wen replied.
"Of course I know he went out. I'm asking you, where did he go?" The woman felt that the guy in front of her was really rude.
"I don't know." Zhou Wen answered concisely. He really didn't know.
The woman wanted to say something when the cell phone in her pocket rang. She answered the call, said a few words, and then prepared to turn around and leave as if something important was going on.
But after only a few steps, the woman seemed to have thought of something. She turned around and rushed to Zhou Wen in two or three steps. She grabbed Zhou Wen's arm and pulled him up: "Come with me. It's considered a favor to do me a favor. At least it will make up the number of people."
"Who are you? I don't know you." Zhou Wen frowned slightly and tried to shake off the woman's hand.
"Since you can live here, you must be Li Xuan's crony. How come I don't even know his sister? You follow Li Xuan to eat, drink and have fun, and everything is given by Li Xuan. Is there anything wrong with helping his sister do something?" The woman seemed very anxious, and while talking, she pulled Zhou Wen out.
Zhou Wen was suddenly speechless. Although he was not the bad friend that the woman described, it was a fact that he lived with Li Xuan. It seemed that what the woman said was not wrong.
"Let me go, I can walk by myself. What do you want me to do for you?" Zhou Wen thought about it and felt that if it wasn't a big deal, it would be his responsibility to help out. He could just consider it as paying rent.
The woman didn't let go of him even after hearing that. She said as they walked, "Don't worry. I'm just bringing you here to make up the numbers. I don't expect you to really do anything. Just don't cause any trouble."
Zhou Wen didn't even know Li Xuan's sister's name, but she dragged him out of the villa.
There was a heavy motorcycle parked at the entrance of the villa. He threw the helmet hanging on the handlebars to Zhou Wen, got on and said, "Get on."
Zhou Wen saw that she was wearing short boots, a T-shirt and jeans. She was tall, with long wavy black hair casually draped over her head. She looked quite pretty and elegant, and was quite different from any woman Zhou Wen had seen before.
However, Zhou Wen didn't have any special ideas. After putting on his helmet, he sat behind Sister Li Xuan.
"Hold on tight." Because there was only one safety helmet, the woman asked Zhou Wen to wear it, so she naturally had no helmet to wear. After the motorcycle started and accelerated, her long wavy hair fluttered in the wind, touching Zhou Wen from time to time.
On the streets of Luoyang, you can occasionally see strong people riding various extra-dimensional creatures, which is relatively rare in Guide Prefecture.
The traffic and the companion pets each go their own way, and the scene looks unusually harmonious.
Companion pets are becoming increasingly important in the Federation. Many tasks that are difficult for humans and machines to complete require companion pets as assistance.
Having a powerful companion pet not only makes you stronger, but also serves the entire human community.
The woman was driving her motorcycle very fast, weaving in and out of the traffic on the street. It looked very thrilling, but she was surprisingly balanced and did not have to brake suddenly.
Zhou Wen sat in the back, playing games on his phone with both hands. Fortunately, the woman drove very steadily and did not affect his operation and performance.
Li Weiyang rode for a while and never felt any hands on her waist. She felt a little more favorable towards Zhou Wen.
She has never had a good impression of Li Xuan's group of friends. If time was not tight, she would not have asked Zhou Wen to come over to make up the numbers. She originally thought that Zhou Wen would take the opportunity of riding in the car to put his arm around her waist and take advantage of her, but she never felt Zhou Wen's hand on her waist, and his body hardly touched her. It seemed that he was deliberately keeping a distance.
"I didn't expect that among Li Xuan's friends, there are still some who have some sense of shame." Li Weiyang thought to herself, and subconsciously turned her head to glance at Zhou Wen who was sitting behind her. This glance was not a big deal, but the good impression she had of him immediately disappeared.
She originally thought Zhou Wen was a gentleman, but upon seeing him, she realized that Zhou Wen was still playing games on his mobile phone at this time, and he was having a lot of fun. Looking at his absorbed expression, it seemed as if he wanted to dive into the mobile game.
"It seems I'm overthinking it. How could there be a gentleman among Li Xuan's friends?" Li Weiyang thought to herself with self-mockery.
