Chapter 118 The Three Protagonists
Li Qi's feeling was just a feeling.
Or maybe this was just his guess. He didn't have the feeling of being targeted that he had in his previous life after suffering from magic excess syndrome.
So instead of saying that we are being targeted by the world, it would be more appropriate to use a different way of saying it.
for example……
The gears of fate started turning...or something like that.
It's just like the war in the previous life.
The "accidents" in this life should also begin.
Li Qi didn't care much about these things. As long as it didn't delay his research on the relics, everything else was fine.
The more experiences you have, the weaker your emotions become, and you lose interest in anything.
Li Qi's only interest now is to pursue special powers, magic from his previous life, relics and "qi" from this life. Apart from that, he doesn't care about anything else.
Speaking of the Qi in this life, after the collision with Malu's Qi, Li Qi vaguely discovered that the Qi he controlled was different from the Qi controlled by Malu and the others.
Perhaps it was because Li Qi had control over his own energy and had not experienced the erosion of fog, so he was more flexible and adaptable in the use of energy.
For example, Li Qi attached Qi to other things, but Maru and the others couldn't do that.
"It's not another talent, is it? Well, I hope nothing goes wrong this time..."
Thinking of the magic excess syndrome in his previous life, Li Qi felt a bit like being bitten by a snake and being afraid of ropes for ten years.
Although his talent could make him quickly become a powerful figure in the world, it could also cost him his life.
In this life, Li Qi has not felt any special physical illness. If he plays it safe, he will have no problem living to his estimated limit of 20 years old.
But don't let anything happen before then.
He also wants to study his lifetime relics.
Shaking his head and deciding not to think about it for the time being, Li Qi returned to his rented house and prepared for the next heavy fog level test.
If it was too troublesome to obtain the technology to make relics from the royal capital, he could only accept Maru's suggestion and go to the third floor, the 'City of Chaos', to obtain the technology to make relics.
If you want to go to the third level, you have to join the exploration team.
Otherwise, Li Qi alone, even with Adam as a trump card, might not be able to safely pass through the first two layers of fog areas.
If Li Qi wants to join the exploration team, he must become a heavy fog explorer in the shortest possible time.
This is the minimum level standard for exploring with a team.
In terms of strength, Li Qi has no problem.
The problem is the theory.
"Next...should we write down everything in these books?"
Holding the reference books given by Carol and Maru, Li Qi just felt a headache.
No matter what time it is, reading and memorizing books is always a painful thing. Even though Li Qi's memory has been enhanced after several reincarnations, he doesn't think reading is a happy thing.
I have never felt happy about memorizing things.jgp But there is no other way. For the sake of the rating, he can only try his best to accept the knowledge.
There are many things to learn at the heavy fog level, including the distribution of safe zones in the first four layers of fog and the distribution of fog beasts.
Records of important terrain, judgment of climate change and special phenomena in foggy areas.
How to deal with a crisis and how to pass on the message...
And so on and so forth.
Hundreds of years of exploration in foggy areas have enabled fog explorers to develop a set of formulaic exploration templates.
Any newcomer to explore the fog house will be fine as long as they follow this set of standards.
Unless the fog area changes like Li Qi encountered that day.
Those special monsters that do not appear in the illustrated manual.
Li Qi began his painful life of endorsement, but what he did not expect was that in this stable life of endorsement, several uninvited guests disrupted his plans.
"Li Qi! I know you are in there! Please open the door!"
One evening, at dusk, there was a knock on the door and the boy's begging voice.
Listening to the slightly familiar boy's voice, Li Qi frowned slightly.
He opened the door and looked outside, and saw a young man with conspicuous blond hair, looking at Li Qi with a joyful expression:
"You are here!"
“Who are you…?”
Li Qi pretended not to know the other person and looked at him calmly.
The blond boy's smile froze instantly, his eyes turned into cartoon-like poached eggs, and he said in great sorrow:
"I'm Ronnie! I live in the same orphanage as you and even downstairs from you! I wanted to be your friend before...but now you've forgotten me..."
Ronnie looked aggrieved.
The black-haired girl standing next to him couldn't stand it, so she walked up and kicked him: "Stop crying, didn't you come here to learn from Li Qi? Why don't you show some sincerity!"
"study?"
Catching the key words in the words, Li Qi frowned even deeper.
He looked at the three people in front of him, and finally his eyes fell on Ronnie: "You want to learn from me? What?"
Ronnie didn't answer. The guy with short brown hair and glasses pushed his glasses and said:
"Ronnie heard that you became a Mist Explorer at the Cangwu level and killed the Red Wing Bird alone, so he wanted to come to you for special training. He wants to become a Mist Explorer as soon as possible like you."
"Yes, yes! That's it!"
Ronnie recovered from his lost state, came to Li Qi, and said with a smile:
"Li Qi... Oh no, Senior Li Qi! Since we grew up in the same orphanage, please teach us how to quickly become Tanwu members!"
He clasped his hands together and bowed deeply to Li Qi, looking very sincere.
But Li Qi's expression remained unchanged, and he simply refused: "I don't have time to teach you, please go back."
“Eh!?”
"Stupid Ronnie! I told you to show your sincerity!!"
Emma, the girl standing behind him, couldn't bear it and slapped the blond boy. The slap seemed very heavy and almost knocked Ronnie to the ground.
Ronnie squatted on the ground with his hands covering the back of his head and grinning, while Emma took out a bag of coins and said, "Li Qi, I know you are unkind, but we didn't come here without any preparation.
"This is... this is the money we earned from doing odd jobs during the training period. Although it's not much... but... but this is all we can take out, all for you! And please teach this idiot, otherwise... he will most likely be eliminated..."
Emma said at the end, her tone lowered a little.
Li Qi looked at the bag in her hand and the sincerity in her eyes. After a moment of thought, he looked at Ronnie who stood up and remained silent.
"Are you going to be eliminated?"
Li Qi asked in surprise.
He could vaguely sense the 'fate' that was wrapped around Ronnie, which was proof of his being a key character of the era.
Just like Ilona and Remus in their previous life.
According to this logic, Ronnie should also grow into a very outstanding talent in the future...
Doesn’t his future lie with the Tanwu family?
Li Qi stroked his chin and thought, then he heard Ronnie say:
"I don't know what's going on. I've been unable to keep up with the training progress recently, and I'm always ranked last..."
"Li Qi, you became a fog explorer directly, I'm afraid you don't know what happened during the training period."
Rumi, the boy with glasses, said:
“There are assessments during the training period, once every three months, and the few at the bottom will be judged as unsuitable to become fog explorers and will be eliminated.
"Although this is only the first month, if Ronnie continues to rank last like this, he will definitely not pass the first quarter assessment, and Ronnie's dream... is to become a Mist Explorer."
Rumi said seriously.
He and Emma are Ronnie's best friends, so they naturally know that becoming a fog explorer has been Ronnie's dream since he was a child.
So no matter what, as long as Ronnie doesn't give up, they will try their best to help Ronnie become a fog explorer.
Listening to the stories of several people and looking at the pleading eyes of the three little ones in front of him, Li Qi's expression was a little strange.
What's going on with this strong sense of 'bond'?
Could it be that I have traveled to a comic book world? Just like the second special world...
Come to think of it, there is also a guy similar to the protagonist in the second world. He obviously has no special abilities, but he can always turn the tables and reverse the final bet...
Recalling the past, Li Qi was a little distracted.
After a while, Li Qi shook his head slightly, trying not to think about the past.
He looked at the boy and girl who seemed to be the 'protagonists' in front of him, and opened his mouth slightly to refuse.
However, when he saw the transparent ball on Ronnie's chest, he took back his refusal and asked, "What is this?"
Li Qi pointed at the glass ball on Ronnie's chest.
The glass ball was transparent as a whole, with only a three-dimensional pattern similar to snowflake prisms inside.
Ronnie tied it up with a rope and hung it around his neck, making it look like a pendant.
Following the direction of Li Qi's finger, Ronnie was holding a glass ball in his right hand and replied, "This is my relic... It... It's called 'Crystal'. I named it. What's wrong?"
"Your relics..."
Li Qi remembered that the relic of Ronnie's contract was a fourth-level relic, but the direction of the "qi" emanating from the relic in front of him gave Li Qi the feeling that it was not a fourth-level relic.
With his superpowers fully activated, Li Qi observed the connection between the 'crystal' and Ronnie. When he saw a special aura entering Ronnie from the crystal, Li Qi had some enlightenment in his mind.
"Do you remember when you started to fall behind schedule?"
Li Qi asked again.
Ronnie and the other two looked at each other, not understanding what Li Qi meant by this question, but Ronnie still answered:
"It seems like half a month ago...? No, it seems like earlier? I can't remember clearly."
Hearing Li Qi's question, the glasses boy Rumi's lenses flashed and asked:
"Li Qi, are you trying to say that Ronnie's inability to keep up has something to do with his relics?"
"I didn't say that."
Li Qi looked at Ronnie's relics again, but in fact he was basically certain in his heart that this was the golden finger of Ronnie, the "protagonist".
Because he just tried to use the Magic Cube to transform into the relic in Ronnie's chest, but failed.
The only relics that can allow the Magic Cube to transform without hindrance are relics of the same level, or relics of a higher level.
Judging from the other party's performance, Ronnie's relics are likely to be of special grade.
"Xiao Yan's template? No... the common template for the protagonist, right?"
Li Qi pondered in his heart, looking at the three people in front of him, and suddenly some ideas came to his mind. He said softly: "Let's not talk about that for now. If you want me to give you some special treatment, it's not impossible, but I also have requirements."
"You tell me! I'll agree to whatever you ask!"
Ronnie instantly became excited and said with a sparkle in his eyes.
Li Qi blocked his question expressionlessly: "Would you agree to die if I asked you to?"
"Forehead……"
Ronnie's expression froze instantly.
Li Qi said:
"Don't ask for things you can't do. My request is actually very simple. Lend me your relics for a few days."
Li Qi pointed at Ronnie and stated his request.
