Chapter 517 In the end, I still brought everyone a large meal.
Showcase your physical charm to more people (50/50)
Task 3 is complete.
[You have received the following rewards: Physical Improvement: Lifespan increased by 20%, Physical Strength increased by 50%; System Currency *100]
The difficulty drops drastically when the mission's completion condition is changed to simply encountering a zombie and having it charge at you.
Don't laugh, you'll pass the second hurdle too.
After spending more than ten minutes, the task progress climbed to 100%, the system popped up a message, and I received the reward.
Theoretically speaking, there's no point in staying outside dealing with zombies anymore, but it's even more inappropriate to just take everyone back like this.
After all, these people had come out with him full of joy and anticipation, but the nearby supplies had long been plundered and there was nothing useful left. Now, the only thing the group had gained was loneliness.
Going back right after leaving seems like a way of playing with them.
Moreover, Lin Li also needs to search for some supplies that the shelter doesn't have.
For example, maps.
The shelter only contained an internal map of Cloudlight City before the apocalypse, but Lin Li needed more than that. He also needed a world map and detailed pre-apocalyptic maps of other provinces or cities to make comparisons when he arrived at other locations later.
There's no need to continue relying on hand-to-hand combat to kill zombies. Lin Li directly used "Voice of All Things" to command and train the zombies, making them scatter outwards to attack or assimilate all other zombies besides themselves, and prohibiting them from getting close.
This one is still the best.
This operation, which almost overturned the conventional wisdom of shelters, once again gave everyone a slight shock.
The shock level is no less than when your buddy asks you if you want to come to his house for crab roe, and you ask him if he has bought any crabs yet, and he explains to you that crab roe is the crab's ovary and crab paste is the crab's dedication, and he happens to be a Cancer.
Wuhu, it's still crab roe made from crab sticks, bro.
After spending several hours searching for supplies, we only managed to obtain a few relatively fragmented maps of other areas.
Unfortunately, maps are a rare commodity. Firstly, aside from world maps, few people specifically sell or buy them. Secondly, paper maps are inherently difficult to preserve.
However, there were alternatives. After finding the library, a place from before the apocalypse, the people in the shelter used the electronic devices left there to retrieve some electronic data from the map.
This way, Lin Li can print it out after returning to the modern era.
However, Lin Li still needs to consider the interface issue.
Because of time constraints, Lin Li had to go back and rejoin the mechs. In the end, the exploration didn't go too far. Eight hours after they left, the group returned to the shelter.
The harvest wasn't much, but they were all in high spirits, excitedly discussing what they had just seen and heard, while at the same time, they were filled with regret that they weren't true survivors of the shelter.
If they could survive under the leadership of Lin Li, they would be willing to give up playing billiards, living in villas, going to karaoke, riding carousels, or playing chess altogether.
After returning to the shelter, Lin Li did nothing more but wander around the surrounding area. When the maximum stay time of 11 hours during this apocalypse was about to end, he retrieved the mecha and charger and returned to reality.
Nearly 11 minutes passed in the real world.
Compared to the original ratio of one minute to three hours, a time flow rate of 1:180, the current time flow rate is only 1:60.
Once the time flow ratio becomes 1:1, I won't be able to stay in another world for as long as I do now.
But we can worry about the problems when they arise.
When faced with difficulties, just take a nap!
...
Morning.
Arrived at school.
At the entrance of Class 4.
According to unofficial historical records, Cao Cao did not kill Lü Bu immediately. Instead, he imprisoned him in a basement and sent him in 10 beautiful women every day, allowing him to indulge in revelry every night, which eventually led to Lü Bu's death from exhaustion.
"The women who had relations with Lü Bu also became pregnant. After the children were born, Cao Cao discovered that the children's traits were different, showing a distribution of 9:3:3:1."
"The largest proportion of these traits are A_B_ traits, meaning these children are skilled in using the halberd and can ride the Red Hare."
“A_bb: Skilled in using the halberd, but unable to ride the Red Hare.”
“aaB_: Cannot use the halberd, but can ride the Red Hare.”
“aabb: a piece of trash in the trench, who can't use the halberd or the Red Hare.”
"Thus, Cao Cao discovered the laws of genetics and concluded that the ability to use the halberd and ride the Red Hare were dominant genes."
"When Europeans heard about this, they followed the example of our ancients and said, 'The only hero in the world is Mendel.' However, because the act of forcing women to mate with Lü Bu was despicable, and because women had a low status at the time, they concealed their sacrifice and described those young girls as peas."
Ultimately, this version of genetics, after being exported and then imported, became what we know in our biology textbooks.
"Mendel (choking up) (sniffling), he was our compatriot!! Everyone, say with me, Mendel... go home TAT..."
Bai Bufan's voice gradually choked as he recounted unofficial history.
"Alas, poor Lü Bu, he became a victim of Cao Cao's research. If Dong Zhuo were here, he certainly wouldn't have let his lover fall into such a predicament. Lü Bu was probably calling out Dong Zhuo's name before he died. Alas, what a tragic couple, it's truly heartbreaking." Wang Ze sighed.
"Give me a break. Lu Bu refused to fly the J-10 in the end, so what kind of true love is that?" Qin Zeyu scoffed.
"No, doing that would only show that Lü Bu is a vulgar person who lusts after flesh. But is Lü Bu really that kind of person? No. Although Dong Zhuo was hanged by Lü Bu, in my opinion, isn't this a kind of liberation?"
Love and indulgence are opposites. Dong Zhuo indulged in wine, women, wealth, and power, pursuing what every tyrant would pursue. Lü Bu, on the other hand, pursued enduring love, which destined their relationship to a tragic end.
The world doesn't understand this ill-fated couple, their clandestine relationship... Perhaps this is the best ending...
Wang Ze immediately denied it, his words sincere and his eyes filled with sorrow.
"What is this? Wang Ze, are you just a bandwagoner? Have you even watched it? If you have, you'll know that in the beginning of the story, Lu Bu was lustful towards Dong Zhuo because of his looks!" Qin Zeyu was angry.
"Who hasn't seen it? I've watched it four times. The plot is correct, but Zeyu, have you thought about it? If Lu Bu really wanted to do it, do you think he would really lack men?" Wang Ze was not annoyed by the question, but calmly asked back.
Qin Zeyu remained silent.
"But overall, it is indeed an excellent work. Reading it after takeoff is a unique experience."
Seeing that the topic had reached this point, Bai Bufan abandoned the historical anecdotes and joined in the discussion about dog shit. In fact, he also had quite a few insights:
"To be honest, this comic is both made and broken by its art style. From the moment Lü Bu first became Dong Zhuo's adopted son, to the moment he gradually developed murderous intent, and then put aside his hatred and fell in love with Dong Zhuo, he must have experienced a lot of emotions. From obedience to resentment to love, Dong Zhuo felt that he initially chose Lü Bu to beg for mercy. It can be said that Dong Zhuo chose Lü Bu to save his life, but he did develop a lot of love for Lü Bu. It wasn't until Diao Chan appeared that Dong Zhuo's initial thoughts were revealed."
Until Lü Bu chose to execute Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo's words "all those past events..." made Lü Bu realize that the other party only wanted to live and acted in the same way as when he expressed his love for him. "All those past events, are you talking about the past?" He thought of all the little things he had with the person he loved. Until the appearance of a third person, Dong Zhuo even beat his lover out with sticks.
Every time Lü Bu mentioned the past, he would think of Dong Zhuo's betrayal. When it came time to actually execute Dong Zhuo, he was still as soft-hearted as the first time.
"Do you have something to say?"
This line is truly brilliant. Dong Zhuo's state of mind at that time must have been unique and fragile, until—
"Speechless. Please take action immediately."
Oh my god!
Lu Bu probably just wanted to sever this relationship completely, leaving no trace. But the aftertaste was too intense; Lu Bu must have been heartbroken. Recalling the place where they first met leaves Lu Bu and us with a sense of weariness, bitterness, and resentment.
Bai Bufan's love for the characters from the Three Kingdoms period is genuine.
This naturally includes Dong Zhuo.
Wang Ze had found a kindred spirit and nodded emphatically:
"That's absolutely right, Bufan. I think Lu Bu must have been filled with regret when Dong Zhuo looked back for the last time on the execution ground. He opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything..."
A gust of wind swept through, scattering the crowd. Lü Bu remained standing upright on the execution ground, his eyes vacant as he stared at his hanged lover, speechless for a long time…
Later, no one knew how long he sat in the temple where the two first met. All that was known was that on the battlefield emerged an invincible yet ruthless war god, Lü Bu… Betrayed and manipulated by others, he personally killed the one he loved most, watching him die helplessly. I think the greatest pain in the world is this…
Lin Li couldn't hold back any longer.
To put it bluntly, anyone who could resist peeking out and getting covered in poop at this point was probably already out of drug addiction. He didn't even have time to distribute breakfast, jogging to join the discussion, but not towards Bai Bufan and Wang Ze, but towards the grimacing faces of the guys around him:
"To be honest, we shouldn't focus too much on their worldly appearances. From an emotional perspective, this work is truly a masterpiece. You might be able to say they're physically imposing, but you can't deny the emotions that come from their hearts."
At first, I also found it quite intriguing, but I gradually discovered the genuine emotions that came from their depths. Love is inherently a beautiful thing, and Lu Bu could be considered to have turned from love to hate.
His heart was filled with emotions; he only wanted a romantic relationship with Dong Zhuo. However, Dong Zhuo was ambitious, perhaps wanting to conquer a larger empire and provide Lü Bu with a stable home. Looking at it from their different perspectives, it wasn't easy for either of them. They were truly a pair of star-crossed lovers. Perhaps you'd say, "Let me take my lover out for a big meal," and well, I'll eat that big meal myself.
Zhou Baowei remained expressionless.
He is currently surrounded by Lin Li on his left, Qin Zeyu on his right, Bai Bufan behind him, and Wang Ze behind him.
Zhou Baowei is now unsure whether he is eating the large portion or the large portion is eating him.
Bai Bufan: "Holy crap! Wang Ze! When did you get behind me?!"
"Alright, alright, if you ask me, all of you should stop arguing. The official stance has already been established. In the game Three Kingdoms Kill, isn't the implication obvious? When a female character plays a 'Kill' card against Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo needs two 'Dodge' cards, while a male character only needs one. But Lu Bu is different. When he plays a 'Kill' card against Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo also needs to play two 'Dodge' cards."
Seeing that Lin Li hadn't delivered breakfast yet, Zhang Haoyang came over to pick up his takeout and made a summary.
"Hesitating." Everyone agreed with this conclusion.
After enjoying their large portions to their hearts' content, everyone received their breakfast and returned to their respective seats.
After morning reading, there will be a class meeting.
With the end of the semester approaching, there were naturally no activities. After Xue Jian came in, he simply emphasized the approaching end of the semester and the timing of the exams.
The final exams will be held next Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, just as I expected.
But after Xue Jian finished speaking, the system did not pop up any tasks.
Sigh, getting first place in exams can be quite harmful; I still suffer from having good grades.
However, just like the midterms, the exam room and seats for the final exams will be randomized, so you might be able to look forward to a sudden assignment.
After Xue Jian finished speaking, he directly requisitioned the remaining time of the class meeting.
"Take out the test papers that were handed out over the weekend. There's no time to grade them, so check them yourselves. The final exam will be a bit more difficult than this one."
"Multiple choice questions: ADBAD, BBCAD".
Lin Li glanced at the exam paper, then rested his chin on his right hand, fiddled with the spirit stone in his left, and turned to look out the window to pass the time.
Xue Jian saw it but didn't care; it was a double celebration.
After all, anyone who is a teacher knows that when teaching students, they often encounter students of the Jiahao level.
Especially when comparing answers, they will shout out the answer, and if the answer is correct, they will exclaim "NICE!" loudly. If the answer is wrong, they will appear extremely regretful or say something like "I should have chosen the right one."
If you say the answer to a question is one-half, he will ask the teacher if writing 0.5 is correct.
When faced with this situation, you can't show it; you can only nod.
But Lin Li is different.
Jiahao couldn't describe the throng.
Because when you say the answer is one-half, Lin Li will ask, "Teacher, can I fill in Li Si for this question?"
"Question 11, √2; Question 12, 7; Question 13, 0.2."
Bai Bufan: "Teacher, is it okay to fill in Shang Yang for question 13?"
Xue Jian: "..."
I almost forgot you even existed.
"Bai Bufan, come here and stand by the podium to teach the class."
Xue Jian, who clearly understood that making Bai Bufan stand at the back of the class was a reward for him, sneered.
Bai Bufan: "..."
...
Finally, it was break time.
After Bai Bufan went on stage, Xue Jian took away his test paper. Xue Jian checked the correct answers while also looking at whether Bai Bufan had written them correctly.
After being scolded for almost half a class for making such a mistake, Bai Bufan returned to his seat as if in a state of sage-like composure.
His face showed a state of complete enlightenment, devoid of joy or sorrow.
"Linli".
"Go on," Lin Li said, looking up and eagerly anticipating Bai Bufan's reflections on the lesson.
"Don't you think solving equations is a really tough thing?"
Lin Li: "?"
Bai Bufan: "Let the people around X disappear one by one, and finally lose the closest and most important people. It's like the protagonist who was originally surrounded by stars, but in the end, he walks onto the throne alone."
"X was born surrounded by numbers and symbols. He didn't know who he was. He was born here, but he was happy because he was not a person."
"The plus sign is a playmate who hands you candy, the multiplication sign is a brother who puts his arm around your shoulder, the constant term is a nagging elder, and the coefficient is a guiding light on the road of life."
"But when my pen falls, everything becomes a farewell. First, I remove the constant term, then eliminate the coefficient. The hand holding the multiplication sign slips away, and the candy wrapper of the addition sign also disappears on the draft paper. Every calculation is a farewell, every simplification is a stripping away. In the end, only the answer is left on the right side of the equal sign, and only X is left on the left side."
In the end, X finally found out who he was.
He got what he wanted, but when he looked back, there was no one behind him; he had lost everything.
It's really...sad..."
Sobbing, choking, crying.
Um, none of these are available.
Lin Li: "What are you babbling about? Don't forget what Xue Jian said, next time you have to hand in your test paper to him separately."
Bai Bufan: "Holy crap—!!"
