On May 1st, it had been 11 days since Over My Dead Body was released.
Ren Qingqing, who had suffered an unexpected disaster, had been told that she had one foot into the door of a new world because of her "special blood" and "special talents" - there is no doubt that when the police uncle, the local mayor and your parents all tell you that you want to become a superman, the persuasiveness is simply beyond the sky.
Ren Qingqing took a leave of absence from school and moved house in one go. She moved from Luoyang to the suburbs of Tianjing almost in a daze and lived in a college that was under construction - yes, a college. After studying for more than ten years, Ren Qingqing was quite confident in identifying teaching buildings.
The dormitory here is considered the highest quality dormitory in Xuan Country. Two people share a room, with a separate room, bathroom, toilet, kitchen, and living room. When Ren Qingqing checked in, there were already people inside.
Her roommate was a cute girl with baby fat, one year younger than her. Her name was Tang Yihan and she had a southern accent. She would speak in dialect from time to time, but would quickly switch to Mandarin. She was very funny and would often hug Ren Qingqing and call her "Sister Qing" all the time.
But Ren Qingqing did not underestimate her - on the first day she arrived, she saw Tang Yihan floating and swimming in the living room as if there was no gravity.
Ren Qingqing knew that she was a superman in reserve, so Tang Yihan was already a superman. How could a normal person resist gravity? Even Newton's coffin could not hold it down.
Therefore, Ren Qingqing soon realized that this academy not only taught things like "cultivation" and "superpowers" as she had guessed, but it might also be the strongest academy built with the goal of becoming the "number one in Xuan Country" - new students had been arriving in the girls' dormitory one after another these days, all of them were young ladies with "outstanding talents" from all over the place.
Most of them have some amazing abilities, and even though they haven't started learning yet, they will find ways to hone their skills - or, rather, show off their skills.
Ren Qingqing, who is older and a bit of a jerk, has nothing, so she can only stay in the living room of the dormitory and watch TV series on the 55-inch LCD TV. Tang Yihan is not like her last roommate, who can follow her own preferences. Moreover, Tang Yihan has never been to Tianjin before. She has been running around these days. Today she went to the Great Wall, and tomorrow she will watch the flag-raising ceremony. She is having a great time.
As soon as Tang Yihan opened the door of the dormitory today, she floated up in the air and took off her clothes: "It's so hot today, almost as hot as my hometown... Isn't Tianjing a little further north? My underwear is soaked!"
"The Labor Day holiday has already started today, so there must be a lot of people coming to Tianjin for tourism." Ren Qingqing, who was wearing a thin shirt and lying on the sofa drinking Coke and eating potato chips, said lazily, "When it gets hot, it's about the same everywhere... maybe it'll be a little cooler in the Northeast?"
Tang Yihan stripped down to her underwear, and then she lay on the air vent of the air conditioner hanging on the wall, screaming, "Ah... I'm melting."
Ren Qingqing: "Be more respectful, Xiaohan is a flying fairy."
"Hey." Tang Yihan floated behind Ren Qingqing: "Which episode is it?"
"It's episode 45!" Ren Qingqing said, "The TV series has reached the year 234..."
"Have you finished fighting at Red Cliff?" Tang Yihan asked curiously.
"We've finished more than a dozen episodes." Ren Qingqing was speechless, but Tang Yihan wasn't very interested in history. Even though she knew a little about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, she didn't know what year corresponded to what event. "Now, we've filmed the scene where Prime Minister Zhuge fell to his death in Wuzhangyuan."
Tang Yihan shook his head: "Isn't this a story about a cultivator from the Ren family killing monsters? What does it have to do with Zhuge Liang?"
"And one of the Ren family cultivators is related." Ren Qingqing said: "Ren Ge is the son of the third generation cultivator Ren Luoyang... Anyway, he is one of the current eligible cultivators in the Ren family. When he was traveling in Shu, he admired Prime Minister Zhuge very much, but he also saw that Prime Minister Zhuge would not live long, so he followed him all the way, hoping to save his life at the critical moment..."
"Is there any magic that can bring the dead back to life?" Tang Yihan asked.
"Yes, there is the 1st level rejuvenation technique, the 2nd level great rejuvenation technique, the 3rd level great rejuvenation technique, the 4th level blood circulation technique... the 7th level soul return technique... and after the 10th level, it is the immortal technique - retention." Ren Qingqing said, "The Ren family has always had a cultivator who specializes in healing, but for ordinary people, the soul return technique can basically achieve the effect of reviving the dead, turning bones into flesh, and calming the soul. Immortal techniques above the 10th level are all for the Ren family members to use."
"Wait a minute." Tang Yihan asked, "If the Resurrection Spell is so powerful, then what's the use of a stronger healing spell? If you were injured by an injury that even the Living Dead and Flesh and Bones couldn't heal, you would have been dead long ago."
Tang Yihan didn't seem to have watched Over My Dead Body much, so Ren Qingqing patiently explained, "That's not the case. After the Ren family monks grow up, they will learn some defensive spells. These defensive spells usually take a day or two to set up with complicated rituals, and can almost only be completed within the family. After the arrangement is completed, it can form a multi-layer armor for the monks that can 'run on its own'."
"These multi-layer armors for defense vary greatly according to the strength of the cultivators and their research on defense knowledge. For example, the current head of the Ren family, Ren Ying, has 85 layers of defense armor on her body. She is also an expert in defense and has the "Innate Qi" that condenses all the armor. She is almost as still as a mountain when facing demons."
"Normal multi-layer armor will be broken by the demon's attack. Maybe one or two layers will be lost, three or four layers. Facing a powerful attack, more than ten layers will be lost. If you are besieged, you may even be directly chopped through the armor spell. Only the defensive monks of Ren Ying's school can completely condense the armor and prevent the shield from being weakened by weak attacks."
"But these armors are also very strong. As long as they are not broken, the Ren family cultivators can remain almost unscathed. Previously, I saw a ghost-faced dizzy bird that could use sound waves to penetrate stones, but the Ren family cultivators who were dealing with it were able to withstand it and kill it directly."
Tang Yihan was confused and shook her head: "What does that have to do with treatment?"
Ren Qingqing stared at the Ren family cultivator who was spying on the tent on the TV, and said, "Immortal arts above level 10 can maintain and replenish the armor spells on the cultivators. However, it takes an hour to completely restore the armor of the cultivators, so that the Ren family cultivators can quickly restore their defensive posture when traveling in the wild and encountering consecutive battles."
"So, immortal arts above level 10 are no longer used to heal people, but are specifically used to repair the invisible armor condensed by spells."
Tang Yihan dragged out the tone and hummed: "It seems very complicated... But is this armor so powerful? Can it block bullets?"
Ren Qingqing thought for a moment and said, "Maybe, but it may only block a limited number of bullets. If it's Ren Ying, then unless missiles or special advanced weapons are used, conventional hot weapons and elixirs are almost meaningless to her, no matter how many there are..."
"Is that the Ren Ying you're talking about? Doesn't she look a lot like you?" Tang Yihan patted Ren Qingqing's shoulder and said with a smile, "So you can be this beautiful with just makeup and a change of clothes?"
In the current scene, it is Ren Ying, who looks like a teenager, who is scolding Ren Ge, who is kneeling on the ground with white hair. Ren Ge just tried to use magic to save Prime Minister Zhuge, but he aged rapidly as soon as he made a move.
At most, he allowed Prime Minister Zhuge to live for half a day longer, but he himself lost two years of life.
After communicating with the goddess Luoshen and being reborn once, Ren Ying, who is nearly 30 years old, has become accustomed to it.
However, after her rebirth, it only took her ten years to grow back to her teenage appearance. She was protected by the goddess Luo and wore a water-blue robe that could resist water and fire all day long. She looked holy and very stylish.
She looks like a luxurious and high-end version of Ren Qingqing.
Even though Ren Ying was scolding Ge angrily, good-looking people are also good-looking when they scold others. After this plot, the monks of the Ren family went out to deal with the ghosts in Wuzhangyuan and had to face the "Ghost General of the Generation" Wei Yan.
Tang Yihan watched this episode with Ren Qingqing. When she saw Ren Ying's indestructible aqua-blue armor, as if she were in an unmanned environment, she couldn't help but sigh, "It would be great if we could also learn this ability."
"How is that possible? This is just magic in a TV show." Ren Qingqing said with a smile.
"But it may also be true. Some people have already begun to experiment with this kind of spell that can provide long-term protection, but it has not been perfected yet." Tang Yihan said casually while floating in the air and shaking his calves.
Ren Qingqing blinked her eyes. She had long known that her new roommate had an extraordinary background and knew a lot of inside information, so she did not doubt what she said.
However, Tang Yihan just said it casually and continued watching TV. When the ED popped up, she floated to the bedroom, took clothes and took a shower.
"By the way," Tang Yihan suddenly turned around and said before entering the bathroom, "Probably after the May Day holiday, we will start school again. If you want to go out and play, go early."
"You should be notified by tonight."
School starts?
After having fun hiding in the dormitory for several days, Ren Qingqing finally remembered the great mission of rejuvenation that she was shouldering.
————
"Huh? No way..."
Lying on the sofa, Ren Suo, who had no sense of mission for the great rejuvenation, listened to Yu Kuangtu's voice on the phone and subconsciously complained, "Is the danger warning going to be lifted?"
"In three days, there will be drastic changes in the country, and by then the importance of your identity will seem insignificant." Yu Kuangtu said, "You don't expect to get paid without working, do you?"
"That's not the case..." Although Ren Suo's ideal was to get paid without working, he was not stupid enough to say this directly to his boss.
"But your report is really well written."
Yu Kuangtu said: "After I submitted your draft, they attached great importance to the two points in your report, that the killer has "bullet time" and that the strong have secret skills and can burn their lives to gain "unlimited energy". In particular, your argument that 'the strong are human' has been recognized by many scholars."
"Strong man" refers specifically to the female seeker in "If You Are Strong, Go 10,000 Meters."
Of course, because that's the truth revealed by me shooting the arrow first and then drawing the target, Ren Suo thought.
In order to submit the "Research Report on 'Killer's Bloody Feast' and 'The Strong Must Go 10,000 Meters'", Ren Suo almost dug up the settings in the game in detail, and described the contents that had not been exposed in the video but were vaguely hinted at with his "superb observation skills", which were completely consistent with the facts and convincing.
After a pause, Yu Kuangtu on the other end of the phone said, "Compared to combat, you seem to have more talent in investigation and analysis... Everything is in its infancy now, and capable people will be favored, so you may be transferred to a new position."
"You should practice more in the next two days. The day after tomorrow, which is the last day of the holiday, go to the Countermeasures Bureau in the morning." Yu Kuangtu said slowly: "Then we will conduct a new strength assessment for you... This test is related to your future."
After turning off the phone, Ren Suo let out a sigh of relief.
Just as Qiao Muyi said.
Now is the beginning of a great era, and the opportunities are almost countless.
Whether you can catch it is your own business.
He shook his head and looked at the screen.
"Welcome, sorry for the poor hospitality!"
After easily passing the second level, at the third level, in a battle of gods with a total of 156 people, Ren Suo spent three days and finally completed the game for the first time this morning!
Today is the beginning of a new month and also the legal holiday of International Labor Day!
