Xu Le did not accept her apology, but just asked:
"Tell me, what hatred or resentment makes your heart so unstable?"
"I don't."
"I am the Red Moon Warlock. You have no way of hiding your energy fluctuations. This way of lying is a joke to me."
"I want to become stronger."
"I know you want to become stronger, but the question is what are you going to do to become stronger?"
"My parents died during the last black tide. I want to avenge them."
This answer made Xu Le slightly stunned. Did the hatred only start after the last black tide
The situation during the last Red Moon Disaster was extremely dangerous, and many people died in the lighthouse, so this reason is indeed very reasonable.
But how can I put it? This kind of revenge is too blind.
"Have you determined your revenge plan, revenge target, future prospects, and what you should do after revenge?"
Wu Shana was stunned for a moment, as if she was stumped by Xu Le's series of questions.
Because she hadn't thought about that at all.
She wanted to join the Night's Watch simply because the Night's Watch could encounter and kill monsters on the front line.
As for the future, it was too far away for her.
"I didn't think about that... I just wanted to kill the monsters and avenge my parents."
Xu Le looked at Wu Shana who was gradually getting into her own rhythm and nodded slightly:
"Very good, you want to kill monsters, but your current strength is very weak. Thinking and doing are two different things. Do you have the means to become stronger?"
Wu Shana narrowed her eyes, stared at Xu Le and said:
"I have."
"You have it? What do you have? Do you have a famous teacher to guide you, or powerful weapons and equipment
You don't think that you can face the weirdness directly by making some breakthroughs through some alchemical medicine, right
We are facing monsters, the most ferocious creatures in the world. Do you think it is Ultraman fighting monsters?"
"You...how do you know?"
When Wu Shana heard Xu Le talking about alchemical drugs, her expression obviously changed drastically.
Disbelief mixed with some fear.
Even the mental energy experienced strong fluctuations.
Xu Le couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It's so easy to catch fish. Female college students who have not yet graduated are easy to deceive. This is true no matter what era it is.
But he still has to play the whole show. Now that he has finally found some clues, he can't let them fall apart.
“Wu Shana, do you know how serious the side effects of using alchemical drugs to force a breakthrough are
You are only 21 years old, you still have a long way to go.
Have you ever thought about how sad and painful your parents would be if they knew you did this
They want you to live well, bask in the sunshine under the lighthouse, get married, have children, and live a good life.
Instead of engaging in this kind of self-destruction and meaningless blind revenge."
Wu Shana hesitated for a while, then lowered her head and sobbed softly.
Xu Le handed her a few pieces of paper and then extended his hand to her.
"Take it, and consider it as a responsibility to yourself and to your parents' expectations.
And to become stronger, you don’t need that kind of thing.”
Xu Le did not say clearly what he would take. He did not even know what the potion that would help with the breakthrough would be, nor did he know whether Wu Shana would give it to him.
But Xu Le knew that at this time, just extending a hand was enough.
As for other things, Wu Shana will figure it out herself.
The interrogation room fell into endless silence. After Wu Shana was silent for a while, she took out a small bottle from her arms.
Xu Le picked up the bottle.
Unlike the antihypertensive medicine bottle he had originally expected, the bottle in front of him had no printed words.
The taste of the pills inside is also different from previous blood pressure medications.
This means that the two are not similar things, which is a bit strange and completely inconsistent with Xu Le’s previous conjecture.
Since they are not the same thing, then what is the smell on Wu Shana's body
This faint smell of decay...
"Where did you get this medicine?"
"I'm not sure."
"Not sure? Can you be more specific?"
“Well, after the last black tide, my parents died, and I became very sad and depressed.
I went to the training ground to practice, cursing constantly, but I also felt that I was getting stronger too slowly, so I kept crying after I came back.
Then that night, I saw a note and this bottle on my desk.
The note said... If I want to become stronger at all costs, take the medicine in the bottle.
If you are still hesitant, put the item back and don’t move.”
"So you ate it?"
"have eaten."
"How much did you eat?"
"There are 30 pills in a bottle of medicine, which need to be taken over 30 days. I took 9 pills and broke through level 2. I have been taking them for the past few days and have taken 24 pills in total now."
Xu Le narrowed his eyes slightly. 24 pills allowed a level 1 warrior with a similar level to Zheng Wen to become an extraordinary level 2 warrior.
This improvement is... outrageous.
Xu Le’s first reaction was the side effects of this pill. With such a huge improvement effect, it is impossible for there to be no side effects.
"Very good, Wu Shana, it seems that you have come to your senses.
During this period, I will lead you to perform tasks as normal and teach you the knowledge and skills related to the Night's Watch.
Watch carefully and learn well. "
"Yes, I understand, Leader."
Looking at the motivated Wu Shana, Xu Le suddenly asked;
"Oh, by the way, after you took this potion, did anyone tell you that you had a faint odor?"
"odor?"
Wu Shana smelled her body and shook her head slightly in confusion.
"No, I don't know."
"Okay, it's okay. You can go out first. It's a good opportunity for you to familiarize yourself with the environment here."
"yes."
Wu Shana left the interrogation room, and when she walked out the door, she felt inexplicably relieved.
Then she pulled another medicine bottle out of her pocket...
A medicine bottle that was very similar to the blood pressure medicine that Xu Le found.
"The profession of warlock is too sensitive."
When she arrived at the bathroom, Wu Shana took out a cigarette from her pocket and put it in her mouth, as if she wanted to relieve the tension she felt when facing Xu Le.
But after a while, she gave up and simply flushed all the cigarettes down the toilet and walked out.
…
After Wu Shana left, Xu Le continued to sit in the interrogation room.
He had no intention of leaving until he figured out some things.
As for the smell, Xu Le was sure that he was not mistaken, but there was no rush, so he could take Wu Shana with him for a while.
Determine if the putrid smell is persistent or goes away when you stop taking the medication.
Xu Le picked up the white medicine bottle and placed it in front of him.
Then he took out the Ancient Sound Card to mobilize his spiritual energy.
"Is this pill related to Bai Jing's death
The techniques are all ancient and contain many secret words. "
Red Card-Heart
A beating heart, with blood, but it's still alive.
Positive: Negation, mistakes, bloody lessons
Reverse: Source.
Seeing this result, Xu Le narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Is there no connection between the two?”
After Xu Le performed the divination, a strange energy began to flow in the room, but there were only slight fluctuations.
At the same time, in Gu Jianuo's laboratory, the green plant marked Bai Jing suddenly rotted its first leaf.
The leaf with eyes.
Then, behind Xu Le, an eye slowly opened on the wall.
Xu Le seemed to sense something and suddenly turned his head to look behind him, but his eye also closed.
The wall was just an ordinary wall, and everything seemed as if nothing had happened.
Xu Le withdrew his puzzled gaze, looked at the bottle in his hand, and turned his head suddenly again.
But he still found nothing.
"What's going on? Why do I feel like... I opened the browser and there's someone standing behind me?"
Turning his gaze back to the bottle in his hand, Xu Le didn't know if he was going in the wrong direction.
The rotten smell produced after Bai Jing sublimated her flesh might have nothing to do with the pills
It was just that her spiritual will had reached that level at the time, so a similar taste was produced
If level 4 warrior is the limit for warriors, then is Bai Jing's sublimated state a new realm that can be cultivated under normal conditions, or is it a qualitative change that can only occur through the sublimation of life
These are things to understand.
Xu Le didn't know much about warriors, and he felt that he needed to read some books about warriors.
However, from beginning to end, he had no doubts about the results of his divination.
"Let's go to the library at headquarters. I haven't been there for a while."
There aren't that many people in Team 6 right now.
Wang Shu was overwhelmed by the captain's handover issue, so no one cared about Xu Le's paid slacking.
Walking to the door, Xu Le meowed twice at the place where Ding Ke often squatted.
Ding Ke immediately jumped down from an unknown roof and landed on Xu Le.
The man and the cat hailed a tricycle and headed towards the upper city again.
Not long after, Xu Le was sitting in the library of the Night Watch headquarters, reading books about warriors.
"On the Ultimate Ability of a Warrior", "The Heart of a Master", "The Strongest Normalization of a Warrior"
Xu Le is reading these three books, all of which are theoretical knowledge.
Normally, real warriors would not read these books.
Compared with understanding theoretical knowledge, warriors prefer to practice by “swinging the sword 10,000 times today”.
However, for a sorcerer like Xu Le, the theoretical research in these books is still very valuable.
Especially the book "On the Ultimate That a Martial Artist Can Reach".
It describes in detail the issues concerning the ultimate of martial artists.
Beginner - Elementary - Advanced - Master - Grandmaster.
Normally, the Grandmaster has reached the limit of human beings, that is, the ultimate of the physical body.
The human body has limitations. It cannot generate additional energy, nor can it utilize that energy. This is even worse than level 1 weirdness.
However, there is a type of warrior who can break through this limitation and reach a more powerful level of combat effectiveness.
That is the user of the fruit ability.
The user of the fruit ability grants the warrior extra energy, allowing the warrior to utilize the power of Gu Yinduo, so that he can continue to become stronger.
Biological fruits can allow warriors' physical strength to break through the original limits of human beings.
Elemental fruits can also enhance the effects of warriors' actions, similar to Bai Kui.
Xu Le didn't know much about the mysterious department.
But the above two methods can allow warriors to break through their original limitations.
So this book makes a summary and hypothesis.
Assuming that a warrior can have an energy system of his own, then can he break through the 4th level of Grandmaster and reach the 5th level
When Xu Le was studying martial arts books, an eye suddenly opened on the bookshelf behind him.
Meow!
Ding Ke stood up and stared at the bookshelf with cold eyes.
Xu Le looked at Ding Ke with a little confusion. Its posture made it feel like other cats were trying to snatch its dried fish.
"Ding Ke? What's wrong?"
Xu Le looked towards the place where Ding Ke was wary, but found that there was only a bookshelf and nothing else.
Xu Le turned his head back. He no longer showed any strange expression, but touched Ding Ke's head.
"Okay, you're not going to fight with the bookshelf, are you? I'll buy you a book later. Don't break anything here."
After this episode, Xu Le went to get a few books about martial arts training.
The training of a warrior is mostly about pushing the limits of physical will again and again.
The special thing about this world is that the upper limit of human beings is very high. Even if a person has ordinary qualifications, as long as he keeps training, his strength and speed will gradually increase.
Bottlenecks are rare, at least it is difficult for ordinary people to encounter them.
Xu Le was thinking about whether he could consider exercising while preparing for his LV2 promotion.
The current physical strength mostly comes from the veteran's soul, which is a bit too weak.
If we ignore the enhancement of the Veteran's Soul, he is not even as good as Gu Beichen, a weakling.
Not to mention becoming a level 0 warrior or something, at least I can improve the situation of getting out of breath after running a few steps.
Xu Le took out a book that interested him from the bookshelf.
"A Warrior's One-Month Quick Training"
1,000 push-ups every day, 4,000 punches with weights in horse stance, and 20 kilometers of running with weights...
After reading the contents, Xu Le confirmed that these contents were produced within one day, not a month, and closed the book again.
"Actually, I think... being a warlock is pretty good."
Meow! Ding Ke also nodded at this time, expressing his approval of Xu Le's words.
Xu Le flipped through a few more books, wanting to see if there was anything like the secret book of magical skills.
For example, internal skills, breathing techniques, or special martial arts training methods.
Unfortunately, I searched almost the entire warrior section of the library but found nothing.
Can't a warrior's advancement be achieved only through hard training? Is there no shortcut at all
Just when Xu Le felt helpless, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
Alchemist, Gu Jianuo.
"You, Xu Le? Why are you here?"
"This is the library of the Night Watch headquarters. I'm a member of the Night Watch. It should be okay for me to come here and read books, right
But you, a bachelor of Beacon University, why do you always go to the Night Watch?"
Gu Jianuo's face was still a little pale at this time. She raised the big book in her hand:
“My teacher is the Bear District Chief, so it’s natural for me to come to a place like the Night’s Watch headquarters whenever I want.
Lighthouse usually does not restrict scholars in terms of academics, otherwise, do you think you can still learn anything as an international student like you?"
“That’s true!” Xu Le smiled, his eyes narrowed into crescents, making it impossible to see his expression.
Gu Jianuo glanced at the book in his hand and laughed:
"'A Warrior in One Month'? How come you, a sorcerer, want to read a book about warriors?"
"I just felt that the captain's death was a bit special, so I wanted to look up some information."
"You don't want to try to become a warrior, do you? The training of a sorcerer is so complicated, and you still want to study martial arts. That would be a waste of time."
"Yeah, I took a look and really felt it was a waste of time, so I was ready to give up."
Having said that, Gu Jianuo changed the subject.
“I’ve heard about the situation of your team 6. Madam has given you two months without field work.
But even if you have two months, you won’t be able to go out on field missions if you don’t have top combat power.
Xu Le, don't you have any extra plans? For example... come to my teacher's place?"
This should be Gu Jianuo’s second invitation. The last time was the day I just returned to Lighthouse.
Xu Le pondered for a while, as if he was thinking seriously.
But in the end he shook his head:
"I don't want to give up so easily. After all, this is the team that the captain has managed to keep. So thank you for your kindness. I still want to try and save this team."
Gu Jianuo did not show much emotion in response to Xu Le's rejection.
However, she still briefly expressed her views.
"A Night's Watch team needs a core, a backbone.
There is no such person in your team at the moment. Although the three of you young people are growing very fast, it will take time for you to become the backbone of the team.
Since you don't want to, I won't force you. My teacher's door is always open to you."
"Thank you, Miss Gu. I will always remember your help and kindness."
After meeting Gu Jianuo, Xu Le did not stay in the library, but walked out directly.
Standing at the door, Xu Le took out the Gu Yinduo card and took a look at it.
White Card-Joker
The clown is smiling at you, no one knows what is under his mask.
Positive: Like a clown, something bad is about to happen.
The reverse side: disguise under the mask
"Indeed, I am like a clown."
When Xu Le saw Gu Jianuo, he already knew that he had been tricked, silently.
He wouldn't believe that Gu Jianuo would come here by such a coincidence.
However, from the conversation, he still realized that the other party's ability was flawed.
"She can only see what I do but can't hear what I say?"
Meow! ~ Ding Ke nodded on his shoulder.
Xu Le began to recall.
When did you get infected
There are many action tracks today, including the hospital, the monument, the dormitory area of the Extraordinary Academy, the Extraordinary Academy, the Night Watch branch, and the library.
Speaking of suspicious things...
In the interrogation room of the Night Watch branch, there was a divination about the medicine bottle.
After the divination, Xu Le immediately felt like he was being spied on.
That was not an illusion, it was real peek.
"The pills Wu Shana gave me caused me to make a wrong divination and I fell into the alchemist's trap."
Xu Le narrowed his eyes, finding it a little interesting.
