"Ding-ling-ling~"
When the alarm rang at 5:50 in the morning, Huo Liang jumped up and immediately turned on his computer. Seeing that Renase was not live streaming, he quickly went to pee, brush his teeth and wash his face.
Huo Liang moved very little during this period and did not wake his mother, otherwise his mother would have seen him playing on the computer so early in the morning and would have definitely sent him to do his homework.
When he came back and checked, the live broadcast still hadn't started, and Huo Liang was a little disappointed.
What he regretted the most was that because yesterday was the first day of a long vacation, he played games until the early morning and ended up missing Renesse's first live broadcast!
Even if Huo Liang won the qualifying match last night, he couldn't make up for such a huge loss!
Although some people recorded the live broadcast, watching the replay and watching the live broadcast are two completely different concepts. The immersive viewing experience is completely gone.
Not to mention that by the time Huo Liang found the replay video, he had already been completely spoiled by his classmates and netizens...
When seeing the live broadcast come to an abrupt end, many people speculated that there would be a second live broadcast, which is why Huo Liang got up early the next day.
He has always kept that secret in his heart.
That day, he was being bullied and was rescued by a pangolin.
After a few days, the pangolin left.
After a few more days, the spiritual treasure of Tianjing was opened.
Then, news spread on the Internet that the Immortal Palace sent small animals to open various spiritual treasures.
Connecting the causes and consequences, Huo Liang immediately realized that the pangolin he met that day should be one of the small animals sent by the Immortal Palace.
This mysterious connection with the Fairy Palace made Huo Liang feel ecstatic, and thanks to Pangolin's tutoring, his grades improved, he became more confident, and he finally found his place in the small society of the school and was no longer bullied.
Therefore, Huo Liang naturally became a die-hard fan of the Fairy Palace and a casual fan of Renesse. When Huo Liang talked about these extraordinary strong men in school, he always quoted classics and made clear statements, and even became a celebrity in the class.
There was no live broadcast, so Huo Liang was not in a hurry. He went to a place on the Internet called "Eastern Han Ren Family Cultivation Forum" to post.
It seems that because of the live broadcast yesterday morning, there were a lot of bugs waking up early today, and many people were asking if there would be a live broadcast today.
Some people were also discussing the content of yesterday's live broadcast. Huo Liang took a quick look and found that there were actually several posts questioning the Immortal Palace, so he immediately started to criticize them:
"You are not even a transcendent, what qualifications do you have to speculate on the actions of the Asgard?"
"You look like a primary school student!"
"Haha, elementary school student!"
In order to avoid having his account blocked, Huo Liang, a junior high school student, used a relatively simple method to scold others. However, his fighting power was strong enough that he could even attack more than ten floors in a row, and he managed to make the opponent lose his temper.
At this time, a message came on QQ. Huo Liang hesitated for a moment, then turned off the computer, put on his clothes and shoes, and sneaked out of the house.
It was just daybreak at this time. Within a few minutes, Huo Liang ran to a McDonald's near the community. His friends Dapang and Xiaoqiang were already inside, using their tablets to surf the Internet using the McDonald's ifi.
The three of them are all extraordinary enthusiasts. They made an appointment to watch the live broadcast together today. If there was no live broadcast today, they planned to go hiking and exercise. The official website of Xuanguo Countermeasures said that if you exercise for one hour every day, the chance of awakening will be much higher.
Although the three of them doubted that this was a lie, they had no other way to obtain the immortal cultivation method, so they had to exercise their bodies now. But Big Fatty thought this statement made sense: "Immortality cultivation is all about strengthening the body, refining qi, building the foundation, forming the elixir, and forming the Nascent Soul. Before refining qi, you have to strengthen your body first!"
After a while, there was a ding-dong sound, and a pop-up window suddenly appeared on the tablet:
The three middle school students suddenly became excited and clicked directly to jump into the live broadcast room.
Huo Liang breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately I didn't take a nap. I didn't expect that this live broadcast would be half an hour later than yesterday's!"
Xiao Qiang said: "The Immortal Venerable's actions are indeed like those of a master. How could he abide by the 24-hour rules of the mortal world and let us guess his actions?"
Huo Liang felt deeply ashamed of his shallowness, and then watched the live broadcast seriously.
The three of them were excited by the opening remarks of the cloaked blue-haired girl. Big Fatty said, "I didn't expect that the world is still hiding such a big crisis. It's time for heroes to save it. When we become stronger in the future, we will also save the world and let Renesse broadcast us live!"
The Immortal Venerable's words made Huo Liang unable to help but cheer loudly, and everyone who was staying overnight at the McDonald's was woken up by him.
Humph, next time I meet someone who questions the Immortal Palace, I will throw this sentence at them, and then add, "The Immortal Palace can live for a thousand years, can you? If you can't, you have no right to question the Immortal Palace!"
Generally speaking, Huo Liang has basically won half of his battles with this "if you can do it, do it" approach. If he encounters a really pretentious transcendent who claims that he can borrow another 500 years from heaven, Huo Liang is also prepared with a backup plan: "You thousand-year-old bastard, the Immortal Palace is broadcasting live, why aren't you doing it too?"
After a series of punches, Huo Liang didn't believe that anyone could block it!
At this time, the scene shifted to the underground space. Huo Liang saw the huge monster with a thousand hands and eyes, and he felt a little scared. But the greatsword girl was not afraid at all. After narrowly avoiding the monster's attack, she even dared to rush over and severely damage the monster with a thousand hands and eyes!
And when the greatsword girl cut open the body of the Thousand-Armed and Thousand-Eyed Monster, the desperate words and sounds that came out of the horrible wound were also seen and heard by the three junior high school students at the same time.
Da Pang and Xiao Qiang couldn't help but say, "It's so uncomfortable."
"What the hell is this... It makes me feel uncomfortable."
The two of them put down the tablet immediately, but Huo Liang held on to it and stared at the screen without blinking.
Dapang and Xiaoqiang were shocked. They tried again and found that they still couldn't accept the scene. It was simply physical discomfort.
Just like people with trypophobia seeing a rice bucket or people with acrophobia doing bungee jumping, as soon as they looked at the screen, their hearts seemed to be tightly squeezed by an invisible force, making them breathless.
They asked curiously: "Liangzi, don't you find this scene uncomfortable?"
Huo Liang opened his mouth and shook his head gently.
Looking at the scene of the monster's wound bursting open, Huo Liang actually felt a little...warmth.
He accepted every bit of the emotions expressed in the poem, but this emotion did not make him feel uncomfortable. Instead, it reminded Huo Liang of what happened before he met the pangolin.
He was too familiar with the loneliness that seemed like no one could answer him, the pain that he couldn't express to his mother, the anger at his own cowardice, and the helplessness at being ignored by adults.
When these emotions are mixed together and settle down, they become what is commonly known as... despair.
It is not anger, nor is it sorrow. It will not show any special behavior, nor will it attract people's attention. It is just an undercurrent flowing quietly in the heart.
It will only make people lose expectations for tomorrow and no longer have any hope for the future. It may make people leave this boring and cruel world, or it may make people give up all their dreams and become mediocre people, or even make people become its shape, and then spread despair to friends, relatives and even future generations.
If Huo Liang had not met the pangolin and escaped from this cycle of suffering, this undercurrent would have one day turned into a huge wave, either destroying Huo Liang or causing Huo Liang to destroy others.
However, although Huo Liang escaped from the cycle of pain, the undercurrent in his heart was still flowing quietly, and the psychological trauma did not disappear so easily.
It may not be all bad: it became Huo Liang's motivation to study hard. Huo Liang vaguely realized that studying was the best way for him to get rid of the past. As long as he studied hard, went to a better environment, and met people with higher qualities, no one would bully him anymore.
However, at the moment when he felt the emotions being vented in the live broadcast, the quietly flowing undercurrent in Huo Liang's heart suddenly began to stir up waves.
Dapang and Xiaoqiang felt that this student, who was known as the "Rennesser expert", had undergone a miraculous change: his back became straighter, the smile on his face became brighter, and his eyes became more friendly.
The cumulative effect of every little change made Huo Liang completely changed.
"ah!"
As Huo Liang screamed, Dapang and Xiaoqiang also saw the scene on the screen where the greatsword girl was smashed into a pulp by the Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Handed Monster!
They quickly leaned over and watched the situation change nervously.
"What should I do? If I can't defeat it, will this monster jump out of the Great Rift Valley and destroy the world?"
"Don't worry, Africa is far away from here."
“But it can take a plane!”
While the middle school student was talking, the greatsword girl in the picture began to glow, and she actually stood up from the rock. All her injuries were healed, and she even had a holy light buff, which increased her movement speed!
boom!
Barely avoiding the attack of the Thousand-Armed Thousand-Eyed Monster, the girl with the greatsword rushed forward again and slashed a huge scar on the monster's body!
This time, Huo Liang still accepted all the emotions in it without any damage. Although Dapang and Xiaoqiang found it very difficult to bear, when they saw the changes in Huo Liang, they subconsciously felt that this might be something good, so they endured the discomfort and watched a short clip.
When they couldn't hold on any longer and turned their heads to gasp for breath, the two middle school students suddenly felt that after they had caught their breath, their bodies seemed... to become relaxed?
They couldn't explain what it felt like, but the awkwardness from being scolded by their parents yesterday disappeared; the uneasiness from deciding not to do homework during the long vacation also disappeared; the unhappiness from encountering bad teammates in the ranking match also dissipated...
boom!
The greatsword girl was knocked away again, but she stood up again after a moment. This time there was no holy light buff, but she transformed into a light feather and instantly moved to the Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Handed Monster and attacked it continuously!
The next few times of despair scars washed over him, even Huo Liang could hardly bear it and could only turn his head away.
Dapang and Xiaoqiang breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. Although they were all friends, people tend to compare with others. When they see that others are not much better than themselves, they naturally feel that they are not that bad.
"Liangzi, how do you feel?" Big Fat asked with a smile: "Although I felt very uncomfortable when I watched it, I feel very good now."
"Me too, +. We need to have some fun today. Why don't we go over to my house and play Snake Warriors?" Xiao Qiang also said.
"I..." Huo Liang looked at them and closed his mouth.
But Da Pang and Xiao Qiang heard Huo Liang's voice at the same time:
They were slightly startled, and pointed at Huo Liang and said, "You, you are awakened!?"
"Well, it seems so..."
Huo Liang turned his head and saw that the big sword girl in the video was beaten into a pulp, but then recovered and stood up tenaciously.
After being washed away by the despair in the live broadcast, Huo Liang himself seemed to be filled with a mysterious power.
This power was heavy, like steel and concrete, and could not be shaken. However, it gradually melted away while he was watching the live broadcast, and completely merged into his body, making him feel relaxed, his body light, and even making him... awaken.
However, this awakening ability...
In his ears were the surprised noises of his classmates and in front of him was the exciting live broadcast scene, but Huo Liang recalled a distant afternoon dozens of days ago when there was a pangolin sitting on his desk, holding a lamp holder, and teaching him through mental communication.
"If we keep fighting like this, we won't have enough seeds of destiny!"
Ren Suo gritted his teeth as he watched. The bss battle in this 5-star game was too difficult!
It’s not that the greatsword girl is not strong enough, it’s just that BSS can kill her instantly!
Just now, the Great Sword Girl was killed instantly for the first time, and Ren Suo was almost scared to death, but fortunately, a resurrection option with a countdown of 0 seconds immediately appeared:
,
The "hope" and "despair" in the brackets represent the resurrection options. If Ren Suo only spends one Seed of Destiny, he may draw the despair card, which will lead to various negative situations in resurrection, such as broken hands and feet.
This was not the time to be stingy, Ren Suo had no choice but to spend 2 Seeds of Destiny to bless the resurrection, and he drew Great Hope on the first resurrection, which increased the Nameless's movement speed, defense, and attack power by 00% within 5 seconds after resurrection!
In the next few times, I only drew the Hope card, which could only make the Nameless Person recover exactly 00%, and had no other effect.
Seeing this, Ren Suo didn't dare to perform a normal resurrection.
The half-hearted despair card drawn will definitely cause all kinds of negative effects to Nameless. By then, Nameless may not even be able to lift the knife and will be killed instantly by BSS.
Of course, this doesn't mean that this bss battle must involve one sword for one life.
After dying several times in a row, Ren Suo discovered that if he operated well enough, he could run away before the bss counterattacked. He even successfully avoided an attack and used his life to get two cuts!
However, for a clumsy person like Ren Suo, the difficulty lies in that the attack range of the BSS is too large. Running back is a dead end. He must look at its attack direction and move in the opposite direction.
If Ren Suo is given a few hours to practice, he may be able to complete the game with one life, but this is a live broadcast, so he can only pay for his life!
Ren Suo also tried to let Nameless use fire long-range attacks, but BSS's charging speed was so fast that it directly killed Nameless!
It’s not like Ren Suo couldn’t avoid it, but as I said before, he needed a few hours of practice to learn how to predict!
He even tried to improve himself to increase his comprehension, but his operating level couldn't be raised for a while!
Seeing that the Seed of Destiny fell below double digits, Ren Suo had a complicated expression: Does this mean that we have to use up the holiday promotion and summon game characters?
No!
Calling for help so quickly is not my style!
There are still eight chapters to come. The trump card of summoning game characters must be saved for the most critical moment!
Moreover, Ren Suo was being washed away by the feeling of despair. The cyclone was moving on its own and Ren Suo was feeling very happy. What if a character in the game snatched away this benefit?
After thinking for a moment, Ren Suo's face turned grim. He stepped back and changed Wuming's ability.
Then, the Supreme Being said quietly between the fates:
The chess piece lit up slightly, and then in the underground space, next to the big sword girl, another big sword girl appeared!
launch!
Ren Suo looked at the thousand-eyed and thousand-armed monster in the picture and snorted coldly.
That’s right, I’m disabled.
But the clone is not under my control, and she herself is not clumsy!
Oh, it’s a pity that today’s clothes will have to be piled up and washed tomorrow…
