The scene in front of Chen Xu's eyes changed, and he heard the mechanical voice of the system again. He felt relieved but also a little disappointed.
The final expedition went very smoothly. After organizing two attacks, Tai Chi was already at the end of its strength. The human side almost crushed it and attacked its base.
Due to the attack of "Mist Project", the area it could control was reduced to only one base. After several months of development, it was only able to control several surrounding cities.
The production of robots is a product of large-scale industry, and a few cities alone cannot support a complete set of supporting facilities.
If we give it enough time to slowly farm and grow its troops, and continuously expand its control area, it is only a matter of time before it destroys humanity.
Unfortunately, humans will not give it time to develop.
When its plan to exterminate humanity failed after two waves of soldiers exploded, its fate was doomed.
Chen Xu was one of the first people to rush into the base. He originally thought that "Tai Chi" would have a few words with him, but it only said a few words before shutting down. If it weren't for the strict military discipline, the angry soldiers would have dismantled it into scrap metal on the spot.
At the scene at that time, when "Tai Chi" was shut down, many soldiers burst into tears.
Too many people died in this disaster, and every human who survived had a blood feud with "Tai Chi".
Although Chen Xu also felt a little sad, he couldn't be as sad as them. He stood there and suddenly missed Bai Jinxuan who was far away in the camp.
The big boss "Tai Chi" has been defeated, and the dream is probably about to end.
After returning to reality, they were destined not to meet again.
Perhaps, she would remember that she once had such a dream, in which she met a man like him.
Fortunately, all she could remember were some vague memories, just like Yang Jinxia.
As long as she doesn't meet him, she will forget this dream over time.
"The settlement is complete. You have earned 200 points for this dream. Congratulations, you have received a full score."
At this time, the system's voice sounded again. This time the prompt was different from the previous one, which made him suddenly alert. If he gave a full score, would he get a special reward?
"Congratulations on your first achievement, Battle Hero. You will receive an achievement reward. Please check your personal backpack to claim it."
"The next dream will begin in twelve months, so please stay tuned."
Chen Xu was not too surprised when he saw the last prompt. This dream device was a pitfall. It had bugs. It was good enough that it didn't break down. What was the big deal if it was delayed a little? It wasn't the first time anyway.
He directly opened his personal backpack, which contained a card that was glowing golden and was obviously different from the others.
He chose to examine it, and the card was turned over, revealing a man in a punching stance.
"Congratulations on obtaining the special skill card, unlimited combat mastery. Do you want to use it?"
He didn't know what to say. As the name suggested, this skill could obviously improve his own strength and make up for his shortcomings. Even without a gun in his hand, he would not be completely without combat ability.
However, he wanted skills that could be used in real life, such as cooking skills, which could be used to make money.
Fighting skills are rarely used in real life, not to mention that the crackdown on organized crime is so severe nowadays. Beating people up may feel good for a while, but the consequences will be terrible.
Should he become a boxing athlete? He might as well play darts, or run a marathon. He didn't think it was worth it to get beaten up just to make some money.
…………
Chen Xu woke up from his dream, feeling a little uncomfortable because of the groggy feeling in his head. He lay down for a while and waited for the feeling to subside before getting up.
While eating breakfast, he opened his notebook and looked at what was written on it. Gradually, he had some impression of what happened half a year ago.
For him, that happened half a year ago.
At around seven o'clock, he opened the shop and started his day's business.
Customers came in one after another to eat noodles. After two months of opening, the store also had some regular customers. For example, Yanqing came to the store on time every morning and packed two servings of noodles to take home for breakfast.
There are a few other people who do the same, and would come by specially to eat a bowl of noodles while at work.
Chen Xu was thinking about the darts competition this weekend.
Since the New Year, there have been two amateur competitions in our city, but when I called to inquire, I found out that the prize money for first place was only 2,000 yuan and the competition lasted for two days.
He felt it was not worth closing the noodle shop for two days for such a small bonus, so he gave up.
This weekend's darts tournament was different. It was sponsored by a large company, the first prize was $50,000, and the tournament lasted only one day. He had already decided to go.
He is now considering whether he should temporarily close the business for a day on the day he leaves.
To be honest, the noodle shop's daily turnover is quite high. If it closes for a day, the loss will be quite a lot, so he is a little reluctant.
There weren't many customers in the early morning, but around eight o'clock, more and more people started to come.
At exactly eight o'clock, Aunt Zhou came to work. With her around, Chen Xu only needed to concentrate on cooking noodles and didn't have to run in and out to clean up the dishes.
After nine o'clock, there were fewer customers in the store, until the last customer left in a hurry. After Aunt Zhou wiped the table, she took out the mop and started mopping the floor.
"What's the matter?" Aunt Zhou was a little confused. She put the mop against the wall, took off her rubber gloves, walked over and sat on a stool.
Chen Xu said, "I want to leave the kitchen affairs to you."
"Ah?" Aunt Zhou looked at him in surprise, shaking her hands and saying, "No, no, I can't do that."
"You haven't tried it, how do you know it won't work?"
Chen Xu smiled and said, "When you watch me make it, it seems pretty simple, right? Just cook the noodles, scoop them out, and add different ingredients and soup."
"Well, I'll give you a 500 yuan raise and hire another person. From now on, you won't have to do dishes and can just focus on the kitchen. How do you think?"
After Chen Xu finished speaking, she showed some interest and continued, "Besides, you see, our store's business is getting better and better. In a month or two, I plan to open a branch. By then, if you do well, I will promote you to be the store manager, and then your salary can be raised further."
Aunt Zhou was obviously moved when she heard this. She hesitated for a while and said, "Well, let me try it first?"
Chen Xu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she agreed. After opening the store, business was getting better and better and he made a lot of money, but he couldn't leave and couldn't spare the time to do other things.
In any case, although Aunt Zhou is a little older, based on his observations over time, she is very prudent in her work. It is better to leave it to her than to someone else whose background he is not sure of.
"Come here, I will tell you how to wash the noodles." After Chen Xu made the decision, he stopped procrastinating and walked into the kitchen to demonstrate it to her.
…………
In the VIP ward of a hospital, Bai Jinxuan was lying on the hospital bed and had not woken up yet.
Next to the bed, a middle-aged doctor in his forties was looking through her test results.
Agent Fang Fang asked anxiously, "Doctor, is she okay?"
"She had an acute myocardial infarction. Fortunately, she was sent here in time. She is fine now. However, she still needs to be hospitalized for observation for a period of time."
The doctor took out a pen and quickly wrote a few lines in the medical record.
"Myocardial infarction? How could this happen? She was fine last night." Fang Fang was a little bit unbelieving and asked, "Doctor, what caused it?"
The doctor said, "Overwork and excessive emotion can cause acute myocardial infarction. Of course, considering her age, congenital heart disease cannot be ruled out. Have you notified her family? When her family arrives, ask if there is any family history of the disease."
After saying that, the doctor left the ward.
Fang Fang sent him out and returned to the bed. She looked at Bai Jinxuan, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, her face full of worry.
After a while, an assistant pushed the door open and walked in, saying, "Sister Fang Fang, I've called President Fan and Sister Shao. Sister Shao is on her way."
"Got it. Remember, don't let the news leak out before Sister Shao arrives." Fang Fang gave an instruction and let the assistant go out first.
She pulled a stool over and sat beside the bed. She put her hands together, took a deep breath, looked at the girl lying on the bed with a worried look, and whispered, "Jinxuan, please don't be in trouble."
After a while, she heard a "hmm" sound, looked up, and saw Bai Jinxuan opened his eyes. She asked in surprise, "Jinxuan, are you awake?"
As he spoke, he quickly pressed the bedside bell.
Then, she walked over to help Bai Jinxuan sit up and asked, "How do you feel now? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"Fang Fang, why is it you?"
When Bai Jinxuan saw that it was her, he looked around in confusion, "Where is this?"
Fang Fang said, "This is the hospital. You fainted in the hotel just now. Remember? I brought you here."
"Hospital? Hotel?"
Bai Jinxuan murmured these two nouns, and they seemed very far away.
At this time, the door outside was pushed open, and the doctor came in with two nurses. They examined Bai Jinxuan and after a while, said, "It's okay. Take a good rest." After that, he left again, appearing to be in an extremely hurry.
"Earth?"
Bai Jinxuan, who had been in a daze, looked at the doctor's back as he left, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Is this Earth? I'm back. Oh, and he must be back too. I'm going to find him."
As she said this, she pulled out the infusion needle from her hand and was about to get out of bed.
Fang Fang was startled and hurriedly stopped her, "Who are you going to see?"
"Let me go, I want to find him." Bai Jinxuan looked anxious and tried to push her away.
Fang Fang looked confused and asked, "Who is he?"
"He is..." Bai Jinxuan was suddenly stunned. Yes, who is he?
PS: There is no chapter 158, because the previous chapter 156 was repeated, so a chapter was skipped. Well, it was actually an accident. There is no way to change it. Finally, please vote for me.
