"Although we have never met, I believe everyone has heard some of my stories." Xu Le said with a smile.
"The newspaper said that you had one hand and one foot broken, didn't you?"
When Xu Le heard a student ask this, a look of reminiscence appeared in his eyes.
“Yes, because of some fierce fighting, my right hand and left leg were broken. I was a little desperate at that time, but my lover found me, took me to a safe place, and contacted Zion Progressors.
The Zion government provided me with the best treatment, of course using some sorcerer's methods. Although I lost a lot, at least I survived. "
Xu Le said this, inadvertently revealing his metal arm.
This was just a seemingly casual action, but with so many people paying attention on the podium, someone would naturally notice it.
"Metal prosthesis?"
"Your physical condition recovered so quickly?"
"Isn't it that using the methods of a sorcerer must come at a price?"
Listening to the whispered discussions below, Xu Le kept smiling.
Is it true that the broken arms and legs are broken? Of course it is true.
Is it true that the sorcerer's method of treatment was used? That is also true.
Is the prosthetic real? Yes, it is.
But when all these true things are put together, the situation changes and becomes false.
Xu Le would never take the initiative to say something like, "I no longer have my hands and feet, and now I rely on prosthetic limbs to stand up."
If you expose something, the audience will imagine it themselves.
“Well, since I’m here as an invited mentor today, let’s talk about the Black Tide.
The Black Tide, whose full name is the Guyinduo Black Tide Night, is a strange concentrated siege phenomenon that occurs at the junction of every season. You should have learned about these things in past books and the teachings of your teachers.
There is a lot of similar knowledge in books, including history, Red Moon science and other books, so I will not go into details about the contents in the books.
Today we will talk specifically about the changes in the Kuroshio tides, that is, the situation of the three Kuroshio tides starting from the early morning of July 1, 359. This should be what you want to know most. "
Xu Le said this and glanced at the students in front of him. As top students of Zion University of Science and Technology, they were generally full of curiosity.
Of course, they were full of curiosity about the changes in the black tide.
Because these things have been concealed by the governments of various city-states. After all, mental energy is very difficult to deal with.
Once the news is made public, places like the Lighthouse are likely to cause unrest, shaking the upper echelons of government.
But now Zion has made changes, especially after confirming that the plains policy can prevent the black tide from changing, Zion decided to open the information.
The first group of people to open up are college students who are more receptive to explosive information.
"Teacher, has the Black Tide... become much stronger?" a student asked.
“Yes, although Zion was not reported in this black tide incident, you should be able to feel the specific changes.
Starting from July last year, the first strengthened Kuroshio Tide hit. The four major city-states that had become accustomed to the intensity of the Kuroshio's attacks suffered heavy losses overnight.
Many areas have been attacked by high-level monsters and even the descendants of Gu Yin.
But this time on July 1st, it was more tentative.
Zion realized that something was wrong, so the plain battlefield strategy began from that time.
Later, during the black tide on October 1, except for the Red Moon Temple, the other three city-states were almost all breached by monsters during head-on combat.
The Kuroshio Tide on October 1 was the one that caused the most serious losses to the city-states.
Including Zion, there have been a large number of civilian deaths, which has not happened in many years. "
When talking about the Kuroshio Tide on October 1, some students showed a nostalgic look.
Some of the people here also experienced that desperate night.
"What about this time? It seems the casualties among the guards were also heavy this time, more than 2,000."
Xu Le nodded:
“Yes, the casualties among the Zion defenders were also heavy this time, with more than 2,000 dead and countless injured. These people are the heroes of Zion and we should pay tribute to them.
I know you may want to blame the government or parliament, but I still want to tell you that this parliament has taken things to the extreme.
The frontal attack of the Black Tide did not break through the city defenses, and there were other reasons for the high number of casualties this time."
"Is Mr. Xu Le also injured for this reason?"
“Oh, yes, but that’s not important. What’s important is that, as the top students of Zion, you must understand from today what happened on the night of the Black Tide and what might happen in the future Black Tide.
The first was the Black Tide on January 1st. In addition to the frontal attack, three areas of Zion were attacked by the descendants of Gu Yinduo and the Dark Night Scroll.
We don't know where they came from, but it is clear that this was a planned, purposeful and targeted attack.
In order to protect the people and the city from being destroyed, the law enforcers fearlessly blocked and cleared these monsters, which resulted in a large number of casualties. "
"So what should we, as students, do in the Kuroshio?"
Xu Le glanced at these people and said seriously:
"Close the doors and windows, prevent fire and monsters, and take your weapons. If a monster breaks into your home one day, don't back off, kill them..."
…
Xu Le’s open class lasted about an hour, and Li Qingcheng and Xu Ting could only wait downstairs.
However, while waiting, they met a strange man.
A person with his eyes closed, and his body seemed to be disabled. There was a yellow and green ball floating next to him.
Xu Ting took a few sneaky glances and was slightly startled when she saw the invitation card on the man's chest. Then she said to Li Qingcheng:
"Orange, Orange, this person was also invited! Just like Brother Xu Le."
"Keep your voice down."
It was obvious that the two did not know Xia Libo in front of them, but they were still a little curious about the invitees other than Xu Le.
However, the two of them underestimated Xia Libo's perception. When they were discussing Xu Le, Xia Libo had already noticed this information and walked towards them.
"Hello."
Xia Libo was dressed very formally at this time, not as casual as he was in Zion Progressors, and his appearance gave people a very positive impression.
So after taking the initiative to greet the two girls, Li Qingcheng and Xu Ting quickly responded:
"Hello."
Xia Libo originally wanted to ask about Xu Le, but after walking over, he sensed some unusual aura.
"Are you two law enforcers?"
Xia Libo's question made Xu Ting stunned. Isn't this obvious? Blind
She glanced at Xia Libo, then waved her hand in front of him. Xia Libo said directly:
"No need to wave your hands to test me, young lady. I really can't see."
"Ah? Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you." Xu Ting apologized quickly.
"It's okay."
Xia Libo still maintained his signature smile, but he did not continue to focus on Xu Ting. Instead, he turned his face towards Li Qingcheng and stretched out his hand:
"Could you please touch my fingers, young lady? Just a light touch will do."
Xia Libo's request seemed a bit excessive, but after observing the other party, Li Qingcheng nodded and stretched out his finger. He didn't know whether Xia Libo could see this action.
The moment her fingers touched Xia Libo, the air around them seemed to freeze for a moment.
Xia Libo quickly retracted his finger and nodded slightly to Li Qingcheng:
"This lady's life story is so bizarre and tortuous, it's really amazing. You must have gone through a lot of hardships.
But being able to stand here means that you have overcome these hardships. This is probably the blessing of our Lord. You will get better and better in the future."
At this time, Xia Libo had already used honorifics, but Xu Ting and Li Qingcheng both felt that Xia Libo was a psychopath and a charlatan.
A strange and tortuous past? Suffering
Wasn’t the greatest hardship Li Qingcheng encountered being separated from her lover by her mother
If this is considered great suffering, then there are too many such things in Zion.
What Xia Libo said has nothing to do with Li Qingcheng's life experience. It's simply nonsense.
"I originally thought you were just a little weird, but I didn't expect you to be a psychopath. You keep talking nonsense, and nothing makes sense. I don't know what you are talking about."
Xu Ting seemed a little resistant to Xia Libo at this time, and although Li Qingcheng didn't say it, she felt a little bit resentful in her heart.
Xia Libo nodded thoughtfully, and did not continue speaking, nor did he defend himself. He just bowed slightly to Li Qingcheng and handed over a business card.
"Ms. Li Qingcheng, I am a doctor of biomedical research at Zion Progressive. My name is Xia Libo, and this is my business card. If you are confused about your future destiny, you can contact me."
When they heard Xia Libo's identity, the two girls were still a little surprised. Is he the same as Xu Le
In their impression, Xu Le is already the most powerful person among the younger generation. Although the person in front of them is older than them, with his identity as Dr. Zion Progressor, he will not be ignored anywhere.
But he just said something like that. This person... is so weird!
Just when Li Qingcheng was wondering whether he should accept Xia Libo's business card, Xu Le had finished his public speaking course and walked down with the international students from Tianrui Lifeng.
Xu Le specifically asked them to follow him. After the previous speech, they had already been controlled by Xu Le, so naturally they did not dare to raise any objections at this time.
However, after meeting Xu Ting and Li Qingcheng, Xu Le was surprised by the appearance of Xia Libo.
In the previous incident involving Zhang Nuoan, he and Xia Libo had once collaborated.
Although the other party did not reveal his identity at that time, Xu Le was very sure that it was Xia Libo!
"Dr. Xia is here too?" Xu Le walked forward and greeted him.
"Ah, Mr. Xu Le is here too."
The business card that Xia Libo handed out was still in the air. Li Qingcheng didn't take it just now. Now that Xu Le was here, it was even less likely that she would take Xia Libo's business card.
Although the two no longer have that kind of relationship, Li Qingcheng has walked out of the shadow of the past and sincerely wishes Xu Le and Ai Li well, but she still doesn't want to appear to be a casual person.
When Li Qingcheng withdrew his hand, Xia Libo shook his head slightly disappointed.
Xu Le was very confused. How could someone like Xia Libo take the initiative to talk to Li Qingcheng
"What were you talking about?"
"Brother Xu Le, just now this god... uh, this Dr. Xia Libo, touched Chengzi's finger and said something strange."
"Strange words?" Xu Le did not ask what they had said before, but looked at Xia Libo.
Compared with the two women's explanations, he cared more about Xia Libo's behavior. After all, this person... was too special.
"Hehe, I just tried to sense Miss Li Qingcheng's past and trajectory. It's something similar to divination. It's not a big deal."
"Past and trajectory? Similar to divination..."
Xu Le muttered a few words, then nodded slightly:
"Dr. Xia took the initiative to tell fortunes for Law Enforcement Li? As a Red Moon Warlock, I'm actually pretty good at telling fortunes, too. How about we discuss it?"
Xia Libo raised his head slightly and said nothing.
The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became strange, and the other people felt something was wrong, so they didn't even dare to breathe at this time.
Xia Libo didn't answer for a long time. Xu Le thought he was going to refuse, so he prepared to leave:
"Since Dr. Xia..."
"Okay, I also want to discuss something about divination with you, come with me."
Xia Libo said this and turned and left.
Xu Le glanced at him, then said to Li Qingcheng and Xu Ting:
"Watch these students. I'll be back in a bit."
"Ah? We didn't do anything..." Several international students from Tianrui Lifeng stretched out their voices.
But Xu Le glared at them, and they became obedient again.
Xu Le turned around and followed Xia Libo. Xia Libo's pace was very fast, at least not like what a normal level 2 warlock should have. Xu Le's physique had already made a breakthrough, and now he actually had to use some lightning acceleration to keep up. This was very interesting.
The two turned back several times and came to an empty classroom in the school.
Xu Le could see that Xia Libo was very familiar with this place.
However, standing at the door of the classroom, Xu Le did not go in, but stopped in front of the door.
He clearly remembered the evening campus exchange meeting when he and Rewi Alley were trapped in a small dark room.
It is very likely that Xia Libo did that thing. The strong control method within a limited range and the ability to interfere with the light and darkness of the regional space gave Xu Le a great shock.
So after discovering that Xia Libo was very familiar with Zion University, Xu Le's vigilance suddenly increased.
"Why doesn't Mr. Xu Le come in?" Xia Libo turned his head and asked.
"After all, this is not my home ground, and you are here in person today. I feel that there is a certain risk in going in like this."
Xu Le answered truthfully and made some tentative answers.
Xia Libo thought for a while, then nodded and said:
"That makes sense. You really don't have much of a chance in my home court. That's too unfair. Go to the playground. There are more people there and you'll feel more at ease."
Xu Le: …
Although he succeeded in getting Xia Libo to change the venue, his invisible pretentious tone still made Xu Le very uncomfortable.
What do you mean I have no chance in your home court? What do you mean I feel more at ease when there are more people? Isn't that how you brag about being awesome
The last light and shadow hut was also cracked by him personally, okay
Xu Le pushed his glasses. If the other party was a warrior, he would have rushed in and killed him.
Unfortunately... the other party is a warlock.
Be cautious when facing a warlock, that's what everyone has told him.
"Okay, I think it's better to be in a place with more people. If something goes wrong, I can stop."
Xia Libo smiled, walked out of the classroom, and brought Xu Le to the most crowded place on the playground of Zion University of Science and Technology.
He made a gesture of invitation and then said:
"Since we are discussing divination, then of course we cannot do without your Red Moon Warlock's Ancient Sound Multi-card deck. Please do some divination for me, Mr. Xu Le."
You cannot consult a sorcerer at will unless he invites you to do so. This is the motto that Gan once told Xu Le.
Ding Ke also said something similar.
Xu Le nodded, took out the Gu Yinduo cards from his pocket, shuffled them twice, and handed them over.
Xia Libo directly turned over the first card in the deck.
Xia Libo held up the card in his hand, and the yellow-green ball beside him floated beside him, as if sensing the contents of the card. Because it was held vertically, Xu Le could not see what the card was.
After holding the card for a while, he smiled and said:
“I love this card.”
Then he handed the cards to Xu Le.
White Card-Coin
When you are in Lighthouse, it will become Lighthouse Coin, and when you are in Zion, it will become Zion Coin.
Positive: ordinary, common, common.
The reverse side: destiny.
When Xu Le stretched out his hand and took the card handed to him by Xia Libo, their fingertips touched again.
Xu Le felt something on his fingertips!
Silk? No, it's thread.
A flash of lightning appeared at the tip of his index finger, and it burned the thread hidden in the air. Xia Libo spread his hands, not caring, and stood there waiting for Xu Le's interpretation.
Although he did not make any statement, Xu Leguyin captured a lot of information from multiple perspectives.
When Xia Libo moved his hands, the entry of Gu Yin Duo Zi Si - Puppet flashed by.
The string just now should be the ability of the puppet!
Xu Le looked at the White Card - Coin and immediately coated it with a layer of Ancient Sound Spiritual Energy to prevent Xia Libo from tampering with the card again.
Xia Libo's perception was very strong, so he responded immediately:
"Mr. Xu Le's psychic energy is actually blue, it's really different..."
Xu Le also tilted his head slightly and squinted his eyes, praising the other party:
"Doctor Xia's psychic power is also very unique. This is the first time I've seen gray psychic power."
The two smiled at each other and neither of them continued to test the water.
Xu Le pinched the card, raised the Ancient Sound Multi-Vision to the extreme, and then injected a large amount of spiritual energy:
"What does Mr. Xia Libo want to know?"
Xia Libo paused for a moment, thinking about whether there was anything in particular he wanted to know, but after thinking for a while, he felt that there seemed to be nothing he wanted to know that he needed to ask Xu Le.
So I decided to ask a question that had puzzled me before I met the Lord:
"Can I...control my own future?"
Xu Le nodded. He could feel Xia Libo's inner determination and that he was not confused about the future.
So this question is most likely a test for him.
Xu Le concentrated his mind slightly, allowing his concentration and ethereal state to overlap, allowing the heat of the ancient secret language to emerge.
When he touched the card with his spiritual branches, Xia Libo's thread of destiny also emerged.
A lot! Too many.
Countless lines, densely packed lines, are spread across every corner around Xu Le. When Xu Le touches these lines inadvertently, he can sense Xia Libo's painful past.
Beaten, abused, tortured, and became the experimental subjects of some sorcerers.
Being thrown into the sewer is the most gentle experience.
Born in a horrific ritual, with an incomplete appearance, he longs to be loved but is confused by fate. His fate of not being able to be loved makes him suffer torture and pain.
The endless vortex of the void tore at him, but the threads of fate that had been formed by countless pains now became tools to protect him.
After experiencing countless pains, he has long been calm.
Nothing can knock him down or frustrate him. His fate is already in his own hands.
Xia Libo, the child of destiny.
When he stands under the sun, the past, even the illusory fate, will vanish into thin air!
These images are as clear as steel, without the slightest blur.
The only thing Xu Le didn't notice was that among Xia Libo's countless threads of fate, there was a pink thread hidden.
But there was only one thread, hidden among many silk threads and not discovered by Xu Le.
After the perception was interrupted, Xu Le's fingers trembled a little.
Who is this person
Why is it so fierce
He couldn't help but think of what Ye Fury had said to him before: fate has begun to touch you, be careful, it is an uncontrollable existence.
Does the fate here refer to Xia Libo
It doesn't seem right. Xia Libo's past seems more like a fight against the torture of fate.
"Dr. Xia's experience is really moving. You can really control your own destiny. You are truly an amazing person."
Xia Libo raised his head slightly, feeling a little surprised that Xu Le could say such words.
"Have you really seen my destiny? This is not something that an ordinary warlock can do."
"Because I'm not an ordinary warlock, Doctor Xia."
Xu Le smiled and continued:
"That night in the locker room, and the one with Zhang Nuoan, it was all Doctor Xia, right?"
"What are you talking about, Mr. Xu Le? I'm not quite sure what you mean."
"Heh, what was Dr. Xia's purpose that night? Cleaning, capturing, or hunting?"
Xu Le cannot detect lies, but he can sense the fluctuations of mental energy. As long as Xia Libo has the slightest hesitation, he can confirm it.
Unfortunately, there is none at all. This person just has a heart of stone.
"I think Mr. Xu Le has recognized the wrong person."
"We were supposed to discuss and exchange ideas, but with so many people here, it seems like there's no way to continue the discussion. Or... should we go back?"
Hearing Xu Le say this, Xia Libo's calm heart finally began to waver.
He was not afraid of anything, but he was also curious about Xu Le.
"Actually, a small-scale trial is also possible. Would you like to give it a try, Mr. Xu Le?"
Xu Le narrowed his eyes, took out the black staff, and slightly moved his metal prosthesis.
"OK."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Libo in front of him changed again.
The mark of Gu Yin Duo Zi Si - Gang Shi appeared on Xia Libo's body. Xu Le had never seen the ability represented by Gang Shi.
But his first reaction was to transform into an element!
boom!
A dull thud occurred under Xu Le's feet, and the pedestrians around him suddenly staggered and fell to the ground.
When Xu Le was surprised, Xia Libo had already rushed towards him.
Xu Le did not expect that Xia Libo, as a shadow warlock, would actually use such a close combat method.
Xia Libo formed a seal with one hand while running, and the object he was forming the seal with was the yellow-green ball that had been floating.
"Spell - Shadow Binding."
The shadow under Xu Le's feet instantly twisted and turned into something like a rope that wrapped around him.
This was also the first time Xu Le knew how Shadow Binding worked.
It's not that he is completely unable to move, but after being trapped by the shadow, he is unable to escape on a large scale.
Xu Le pinched the black stick with his fingers and poked it directly at Xia Libo.
"Spell - Heart Energy Explosion."
The moment the black stick touched Xia Libo's body, his body suddenly shrank as if he sensed danger.
The crying expression didn't even appear before it turned into wood with a bang.
"Sad?" Xia Libo suddenly appeared on the other side and asked.
"Yes, it is sad indeed." Xu Le nodded.
"People who can control mental energy are all powerful characters."
Xia Libo recalled the time when he was corrupted by Xu Le's lust.
Whenever he thought of that scene, he would think of the succubus nun Lailai's charming curves and moist body.
That was truly... an unforgettable moment!
"Dr. Xia's abilities are also very surprising!"
Xu Le turned from defense to offense, and as he stretched out his black staff, a black card - the Black Sheep Girl also burned and dissipated.
Disaster strikes!
Xia Libo responded immediately, and a dazzling white light gradually flashed in his hand.
Ancient Sounds and Many Offspring - Lightcast
The original appearance of Bai Guang was the lightsaber state when he was fighting with Zhang Nuoan.
But when he discovered that Xu Le poked out a stick instead of a black sword, he also changed his lightsaber into a stick.
bite!
The air around them vibrated.
Xia Libo felt a chill all over his body. The side effects of the disaster strike gradually spread to the light stick and even to Xia Libo's body. Even the light-forged weapons could not stop it.
Xia Libo felt that his fingers had turned cold. Although he had no legs, the numbness from his prosthetic limbs reminded him that this was a sign of being controlled.
Xu Le took a few steps back. The power Xia Libo had just used was much greater than his.
It was just such a simple collision, but he felt like his fingers were about to break.
Just when he thought he had Xia Libo under control, a piece of ivy on the ground wrapped around Xu Le's feet.
Looking at the light gray layer on the ivy, Xu Le found that he couldn't even transform it into an element.
Ancient Sounds and Many Children-Forest
Xu Le's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at Xia Libo and said:
"If I had drawn my gun and fired just now, Dr. Xia would have already entered the morgue."
Xia Libo raised his head slightly, with his signature peaceful smile on his face, but he said something infuriating:
"Really? I don't believe it."
"It's a big noise. If we keep fighting, people will be watching. Let's end it."
"good."
Xia Libo took back the ivy, shook his hands, and hurriedly walked towards the crowded place. Of course, Xu Le had to follow him.
It is indeed interesting to have a warlock showdown on the Zion University of Technology playground, but the result is also obvious.
It always attracts the attention of the crowd.
Logically speaking, mature warlocks like them shouldn't do such childish things.
But after the two saw each other, one emotion stood out.
I don't accept it!
Walking among the crowd, Xu Le suddenly said:
"I am the Red Moon Warlock. The environment just now was not conducive to my fighting. I still have many abilities that I cannot use in public. Otherwise, this would not be the result."
Xia Libo paused, turned his head and said:
"Have you forgotten the embarrassment of being trapped in the light and shadow? As a warlock, you must remain humble, especially when facing an opponent you cannot defeat."
Xu Le: …
"Really? I don't believe it."
Xia Libo didn't expect Xu Le to use his words to refute him, but it was indeed infuriating to hear these words from someone else.
Before leaving, Xia Libo stopped Xu Le, and Xu Le asked curiously:
"Doctor Xia, is there anything else?"
"Xu Le, your destiny is different."
"Oh, why do you say that?"
"You are full of vitality and yearning, which is different from mine."
"Of course I am. I have always been an upright person." Xu Le patted his chest.
"Liveliness has nothing to do with integrity, because a truly upright person will not be infected by my lust..."
Hearing Xia Libo say this about himself, Xu Le looked at him sideways.
"Doctor Xia is not very good at speaking."
"Haha, even though you may pollute other people's lust, I still think you can bring light to others, which is a unique quality."
Xu Le's face became uglier and uglier. Was this a compliment? Not really.
"Doctor Xia, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. I am very busy."
"Wait a moment, Xu Le, I would like to invite you to join my R&D team. We are colleagues now, and the situation of the black tide this time is very complicated.
So I also want to hear your opinions, and if you have a good project, you can also directly propose it. "
Hearing Xia Libo's invitation, Xu Le hesitated slightly.
My next direction is most likely to be energy.
If he could truly create an energy project in his own name, it would be revolutionary for Zion.
But he has no idea at the moment. Joining Xia Libo's team may help him to brainstorm.
"Okay, I'll go find you at headquarters once I finish the things on hand."
"Well, I'll wait for you."
Watching Xia Libo leave, Xu Le's first reaction was to recall the battle experience just now...
When I was using the disaster attack just now, I also summoned zombies to interfere on the left and right, and then when they were not paying attention, I summoned toads to kill them.
Even if this doesn't work, I can let the toad tear off the creeper, and then recruit a group of weird ancient sounds to pile him to death.
"Well, that's how we should have fought just now. This wouldn't have been the result."
Xu Le rubbed his chin and nodded.
