Chapter 71 The Birth of a Hero
Wang Xiaojuan and Bai Jiancao looked at each other and carefully opened the paper crane.
This was folded decades ago, the paper is very brittle and the pattern has faded.
But you can still vaguely see a smiling little star hanging high above the darkness, protecting the carefree little girl below.
"Ah, this is the paper crane that the nurse sister gave your grandma when she was a child." Bai Jiancao exclaimed, "Xiaojuan, put it away quickly!"
Wang Xiaojuan thought for a while, folded the paper crane carefully, stuffed it back into the pendant, and tied it around Da Ya's neck again.
"It's better to put it here. There's no place to put such a fragile thing in school. Xiaocao, can you keep it for me?" She smiled.
Bai Jiacao was a little flustered and waved his hand: "It's too expensive, can I do it?"
"If you can't do it, what should I, a crybaby, do?" Wang Xiaojuan lowered her head and said, "Xiaocao, my parents are gone, and so are my grandparents. If you don't help me, I will really
Don’t know what to do.”
Bai Jiancao thought for a long time, took a deep breath, nodded heavily and said: "Okay, Xiaojuan, I promise you, we will protect grandma's little star together!"
Wang Xiaojuan burst into tears and smiled, as if she had found her backbone.
She agreed to go to Meng's house for dinner in the evening, and she would go home first to collect the things left by her grandma.
Bai Jiacao sat on the edge of the flower bed, staring blankly at the devastated neighborhood.
Suddenly, she said to Meng Chao, who had been standing next to her, "Brother, I don't want to live in 'Dragon City No. 1' anymore."
Meng Chao was stunned: "What?"
"I said, I don't want to live in that damn 'Dragon City No. 1' anymore. No matter how big the house is, how good the environment, how complete the facilities, how fragrant the aura, I don't want to live there anymore. I just want to stay here."
Bai Jiancao hugged the saber-toothed hound "Big Ya" and said seriously, "Tianfuyuan is our home, and I will not take a step back from here!"
Meng Chao was silent, watching the information jumping in front of him.
[The probability of special citizen Bai Jiancao (Night Witch) becoming black is reduced by 5%, the future of Dragon City is more stable, and the contribution value is +1112]
He didn't understand: "What's going on? I obviously didn't do anything. Why did my sister's probability of turning into a black man drop significantly? The drop was even greater than the previous two crucial changes?"
My mind was spinning, and the fragments of past life memories were connected together.
Grandma Wang in her previous life did not die from this monster invasion, but she died during the last invasion of the "ghost-eyed golden-winged flame insects".
The old man and the saber-tooth hound were burned to ashes by the flames breathed by the super beast, so naturally they had no chance to join the Immortal Brigade.
Everything in the pet collar has also become the dust of history.
No one has seen the little star that a nurse sister on earth drew before she died a long time ago.
Bai Jiacao's mind was entangled with various negative emotions, sinking deeper and deeper into the abyss of darkness, and finally embarked on the path of evil.
But in this life, many things have changed.
Although Tianfuyuan was invaded twice in a row, the residents fought back, gained a lot of strategic resources and combat experience, and emerged with their own "Remnant Star Extraordinary", making the entire community stronger.
Although Grandma Wang died, her body was generally intact. She successfully passed the transformation ceremony and became a glorious immortal. She will continue to fight to protect her homeland and her dearest little granddaughter.
Bai Jiancao was entrusted by Grandma Wang and found a new meaning of fighting. With Grandma Wang's spirit shining on her, she should be able to find a brighter path, right?
Meng Chao smiled from the bottom of his heart.
It’s not just as simple as gaining more than a thousand contribution points.
It was because he finally saw the crystal-clear butterfly flapping its wings and setting off a meager wind. Under the indescribable chain reaction, it gradually turned into a storm and was about to sweep the world.
In front of the storm, the night is approaching, but no matter how long the night is, it will be shattered, and that will be the most brilliant dawn.
"Brother, I don't want to learn to sing and dance, I want to practice, I want to become stronger - believe me, I know why I am fighting, and I can control the most powerful power." Bai Jiacao touched Daya's head, full of joy.
The face is firm.
Meng Chao stared at his sister for a long time, then suddenly stretched out his hand, rubbed the little girl's hair, and said gently: "Okay, then start practicing two more hours of Zhuang Kung Fu every night, and I will help you become stronger."
Bai Jiacao: "Another pile of tricks? Help!"
…
Meng Chao has been in retreat at home for the last two days.
It doesn't make much sense to sharpen your skills before the battle. What he needs most now is to relax his mind, gather his will, and face the college entrance examination in the best condition.
On the eve of the college entrance examination, another piece of good news surprised him.
[The first treatment mission is completed, elite citizen Ning Shen’s hands are healed by 93%, and advanced functions are basically restored]
[Task reward: Contribution value +453, "Basic Harvest Technique" proficiency +50%, upgraded from "Expert Level" to "Master Level"]
A numbing sensation like an electric current surged through my body again.
From the central nervous system all the way to the nerve endings, his nerve clusters and sensory cells are constantly dividing and multiplying, just like the roots of a big tree growing at a thousand times faster.
His fingertips were incredibly sharp, and he rubbed them casually on the tables and chairs. He found subtle unevenness on the seemingly smooth surface.
The next time you harvest monsters, your movements must be more delicate and precise.
However, what made him most happy was that not only did Ning Shewo regain his health, he also defeated his fellow disciple, "Poisonous Hand" Liao Santong in a duel.
He saw this message on the largest monster forum in Dragon City.
"Ghost Hand" and "Poison Hand" are both well-known masters in the reaper circle. The two competed publicly, which naturally attracted a lot of attention. Some people used drones and mobile phones to film the whole process.
The competition between reapers is not a show of fists, but a competition on the quantity and quality of harvested resources.
By chance, this time the fog came and a pair of "Double Star Snapping Turtles" emerged.
This kind of super beast has always been twins from one egg. The two snapping turtles are inseparable. They have the same size, weight, organ distribution and body structure. They even have almost the same brain capacity. They can share consciousness and senses during battle.
They carry heavy carapace on their backs, and their bodies have layers of interlocking bone plates that cannot even be penetrated by anti-tank guns, making them extremely difficult to dismantle.
Just let "Ghost Hand" and "Poison Hand" each have a fair competition to see who can harvest faster, collect more resources, and have the best quality of rare materials.
Although it was a super beast that weighed several thousand kilograms and looked like a small tank, the two masters did not spend much time, and the winner was decided in a flash of lightning.
Watching the two men wielding multifunctional robotic arms, all kinds of oversized adzes, chisels, axes, and saws turned into terrifying gray mist. They seemed to be swinging wildly without any order, but they were as precise as scalpels, using the technique of a cook to cut off a cow.
Pieces of deformed bone plates were lifted and removed. Meng Chao knew that he still had a long way to go.
Ningshe, I won.
His harvest time was seventeen seconds faster than his junior brother, and the harvested resources weighed 3.5 kilograms more than his junior brother. The most important "remote sensing crystal core" in the Double Star Snapping Turtle's head was used to share consciousness and perception.
Hundreds of nerves as thin as hair were perfectly stripped out by him.
Although the "poison hand" Liao Santong also took out the remote sensing crystal core of another double-star snapping turtle, three nerves were broken, and the quality was not as good as before, so he had to admit defeat with a grim face.
"The ghost hand defeats the poisonous hand!"
"Didn't it mean that Mr. Ning was poisoned and couldn't be cured after visiting famous doctors, so he had to retire sadly? Why is he still so powerful?"
"Which medical team treated him and made him recover so well!"
Monster enthusiasts on the forum exclaimed.
What shocked them the most was not Ning Shewo's recovery or victory, but his actions after his victory.
Ning Shewo actually announced in front of hundreds of friends and onlookers in the circle that he would donate half of his net worth to establish the "Passing the Fire Foundation" to specialize in cultivating children with extraordinary talents but poor family backgrounds in the reaper circle.
.
In addition, he will also open an online class to release all he has learned throughout his life for free. No matter who wants to learn, he will give careful guidance - including the most cutting-edge "Seven Explanations of Anti-Guan".
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar.
The former point is just setting up a foundation.
Due to Dragon City's special tax system, many powerful and wealthy people have established various foundations to help the middle and lower classes while also reasonably avoiding taxes.
But the latter one is to teach others all they have learned in their whole life. Why would I rather give it up?
Even his junior brother, "Poisonous Hand" Liao Santong was standing by, staring at him in amazement.
"Junior brother Liao, you and I have been fighting for decades. How could I not know your little thoughts?"
Meng Chao saw from a video that Ning Shewo put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Actually, I enjoyed the open and secret fights with you in the past. We fought back and forth and got the titles of 'Ghost Hand' and 'Poison Hand'.
Feeling complacent.
"Now think about it, we are the only earthlings in a different world. Under the siege of monsters, what's the point of fighting in a nest?
"I released what I have learned all my life for free, which seems to be at a disadvantage, but if more people learn my harvesting skills and collect more resources for Dragon City, Dragon City's combat effectiveness will become more powerful, and our descendants will not be able to
Will life be safer and the future brighter?”
Saying that, Ning Shewo patted the stunned Liao Santong on the shoulder.
"Junior brother, I know that over the past few decades, you have been thinking about the "Jade Testing Method" taught to me by my master, and I am also too narrow-minded. I am afraid that you will surpass me, so I have not been willing to tell you for decades. Fortunately, some time ago
I was seriously injured during the time, which made me reflect on many things. I also received guidance from a mysterious senior. It was an enlightenment and I regained my life. I completely woke up. I will find a place later and learn all the key points of "The Jade Testing Method".
Tell you."
"What?" Liao Santong took two steps back, his beard trembling wildly and he couldn't believe it.
The entire monster forum also completely exploded: "The mysterious senior who can make Mr. Ning 'enlightened and reborn'? What a legendary existence this is!"
In front of Meng Chao's eyes, strange fire shone:
[Under the enlightenment of the Fire Bearer, Ning Shewo's consciousness has increased, and he has transformed from an 'elite citizen' to a 'quasi-heroic citizen'. Dragon City's overall resource harvesting efficiency will also increase with the transformation of him and more people.
Contribution value +999]
"..."
Meng Chao's heart was up and down, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Suddenly I felt a very subtle sense of shame.
I am so proactive in making contributions because I am bound to Tinder and can accumulate contribution points.
But Principal Sun, Grandma Wang, Mr. Ning, these seniors are not bound to any system, and their contribution will not be of much benefit to them, and they may even pay a heavy price.
They still enjoy it as if they were eating sweet wine and regard death as if they were going home.
Compared with them, I am nothing, and what qualifications do I have to guide others and let them "enlighten themselves and regain their new life".
"It should be Principal Sun, Grandma Wang and Mr. Ning who enlightened me."
Meng Chao murmured, "It turns out that citizen units are not fixed, and heroes are not born. Any ordinary citizen may be promoted to an elite, and elite citizens may also have the opportunity to be promoted to a hero.
"Then what kind of citizen am I?"
Chapter completed!
