OBS Chapter 405: Thin Ice as Frost
Chapter 405: Thin Ice as Frost
Time is always chaotic, and the chaotic lines will eventually return to the same line, just like this moment.
pat.
Heavy footsteps fell to the ground.
Tick.
Thick liquid rolled down.
puff.
A low roar echoed in his ears.
Smoke filled the air, and a small figure was moving on the twilight earth.
They were fragile, weak, and seemingly humble creatures.
Whether it's your arms or ankles, whether it's your fingertips, or your brain, a noun is being called out all the time.
The almost tattered gray clothes were clinging tightly to his body, like water plants greedily craving tourists, eager to devour all living things.
With its skinny body, yellowed skin, almost "wild" attire, and scrawled seaweed shaking messily in the air, no matter who looks at it, this is a "distressed person".
People would show mercy to him, then report it to the federal patrol, watch this 'poor' man being taken away from a distance, and then, as time goes by, gradually forget about this figure.
The people are not curious about each other's origins. In the years of development of the Federation, naturally some people can't stand the violent development. They will be ashamed of their own abilities, and then flee alone, pretending that they are expanding their territory.
For such people, people will only give each other a tacit smile.
Just some losers.
Whether it is a conspirator who fled the Federation, an explorer who traveled far away, or someone from the remaining forces of the past, people will not care, they will always believe in one thing.
The Federation will be strong, and all losers will be buried in the graves of history.
Today is no exception.
People watched the patrol team come and take the person away. They only communicated verbally and then lost interest in them. Even if they mentioned it to others by chance, they would only say one sentence with interest.
"Hey, that guy's eyes look pretty. He might become a talent in the future."
The listener laughed silently, and like the careless speaker, he forgot about the incident in an instant.
And in a small room at the idle personnel disposal office.
The 'loser' who had come from afar lowered his head deeply and begged the patrol leader with a serious face in front of him.
"Please, please teach me how to become stronger. I can do anything. Please."
Facing the captain who was scrutinizing this side, the loser's lips moved slightly, and the hoarse voice made the captain's eyelids move slightly.
He sighed softly and looked at the childish face in front of him and the deep despair and numbness in the black eyes. He twitched the corners of his mouth and suppressed the fluctuation in his heart.
"First of all, tell me your name. Even if you are from the 'village', you should have it." The captain with a cold face said solemnly.
Villages generally refer to those people who abandoned the Federation in the past and gathered to live alone in the outside world. In order to distinguish them from each other, people in the Federation despised them as villages.
The loser raised his head, and a gleam of light suddenly appeared in the depths of his withered eyes. He grinned and showed an unattractive smile, trying his best to appear friendly.
"Yang... comfortable."
.................................................. .................................................. .............................................
"Time goes really fast."
Sitting in the classroom, looking at the scenery outside the window, Qi Xiu felt a little melancholy in his heart.
He turned his head slightly, looked around, and saw no one.
Qi Xiu didn't find it surprising. In the final stage of the five-year period, instead of wasting time in this school, more students would choose the family behind them to help them, whether it was to take a further step or embark on other paths.
For himself, this may be a good place, but Qi Xiu shook his head in his heart. After all, he was not the true successor of others, and all he could receive was the oral teachings from the teachers here.
However, for him now, Sera Library here is more helpful to him.
Thinking of this, he raised his fingers slightly, and a solid sky-blue force formed in his hand, swaying with the swing of his fingers.
The corners of his mouth were slightly curved, and the original black pupils were now emitting a faint pure white halo, with a faint diamond-shaped pupil ring in the center.
"Whether it is strength or magic eyes, I have gained something. The next step is to further forge the mind and body, but..."
Qi Xiu frowned slightly, but his fingers were still playing with the sky-blue power ball unconsciously, flowing freely through his fingertips like a soft cloud.
His mind became more and more wandering, and he gradually began to make associations.
The method of reshaping is essentially the reuse of emotional power. It uses energy that can be generated repeatedly as firewood and provides huge benefits to itself in the form of burning.
The first-level practice is the coordinated resonance of the three aspects of mind, body, and body. According to specific rules, the three are condensed into necessary crystals, and then finally sublimated and smelted into one, entering the 'first-level'.
If you follow the idea of the method of reshaping, you should further purify your mind, use the void to create reality, reflect yourself with the image of nothingness, cultivate the 'movement' deep in the soul, and devote all your self-consciousness to it, so as to Achieve 'super grid'.
The law of the Federation is more like an arrow. It sets a direction for itself in advance and realizes it with a belief that is almost shattered. In this process, it requires the participation of the mind, will, and body, and finally completes the smelting and achieves the 'First Order'.
Sure enough, they are two completely different methods, so we need————
stab.
Qi Xiu's thoughts stopped, and there was a twitching deep in his brain. The muscles on his face twitched, and he clenched his teeth to make no sound. Layers of cold sweat were removed behind him, and his body was faintly trembling.
After a while, he stopped acting strangely.
"Sure enough... short-circuited thinking." An extremely calm tone came out of his mouth. Qi Xiu smiled, but there was no gloom in his eyes.
This state of sudden suspension of thought and twitching was named by himself, just like a set of instruments that were running perfectly, suddenly lost their effectiveness one day. Only then did people discover that it was caused by 'overloading' Fault.
When used on a machine, people know that the machine is too outdated and needs to be replaced. But what if the machine is a human?
Qi Xiu shook his head, he didn't know either.
This state did not appear for no reason. After he gathered strength for the first time, his body froze in place. That day, he watched the dusk leave and watched the night fall, but his body was still unable to move.
After a long time, he felt the numb legs, but he felt like he was used to them.
Here we go again, he thought.
He knew that the bad luck had never left him, so even if it came in such a arrogant manner, he would not be surprised at all... If he thought about it later, he would not go think.
Not long after, the magic eye was generated, and he felt the stiffness again, but he could patiently calculate the time needed in his mind. Fortunately, maybe out of the habit of the last time, the time this time was greatly reduced.
"Three hours, 3 minutes and 45 seconds."
Qi Xiu sighed, and then said softly.
"It's another waste of time, let's continue."
"Is it really okay with you?" Sera's emotionless voice came from the air.
Qi Xiu did not answer, but continued to walk towards the next black pillar, the light in his eyes was still there, and he would not stop no matter what.
According to tests, this state seems to be a kind of 'feedback' on one's own progress. Every time it appears, it proves that one is making progress.
Qi Xiu smiled and joked in his heart, isn't this pretty good.
"Your cultivation progress is very fast..." Zhou Tao's expression suddenly became serious, and his resolute eyes looked here, "Are you sure you don't want to take a rest? If you continue like this... "
"I have dreams and goals that I want to achieve, and..." Qi Xiu shook his head, with a smile on his face, "I'm not good enough, am I?"
He looked at the respectable teacher in front of him candidly. The other party also vaguely felt something was abnormal, but even so, the other party still did not stop him.
Zhou Tao's words were instantly stuck in his throat. He wanted to say no, but he understood better what kind of monsters those guys who volunteered to apply for the First Joint Academy were.
To be honest, under such miraculous performances, many teachers who originally expressed support also had other strange thoughts in their minds.
In comparison, this guy, who was of average family background and talent, naturally looked much dimmed.
"..........Go on." Zhou Tao sighed in his heart. As the other party said, a guy who is not good enough can only work hard. Even if he does everything for this and burns himself out, as long as he can continue to go on, then ........
He looked at the slightly trembling body of the child in front of him, but there was clearly a burning flame in his eyes, and everything ignited by that hot power, whether it was heart, mind, or body, was thrown into it.
With a thought, he cut off the hesitation in his heart, and with a flawless mind, he once again began to teach the other party relevant knowledge.
Qi Xiu's eyes were pure, like a real child longing for knowledge, like fish longing for water, saplings longing for the earth, and birds longing for the sky.
However, as we all know, there is a saying in the Federation that knowledge itself has weight.
If you long to fly, it doesn't matter if you have wings yourself, but what if it's a person who has never flown and doesn't have enough to support your desire?
There is only one answer.
Snapped.
"Graduation is coming tomorrow. What are your plans? Do you really want to go to the First Joint Institute? Come on, I was just talking in my sleep before."
After releasing a brief salute, Anri began to chatter like a grown-up patriarch.
"I have thought about it. I will be a practicing doctor and you will be my disciple. The two of us will wander around the world and we will not be as happy as here. When the time comes, I will pass on all my unique skills... Well, I'd better save some, I'll wait. I’m here to support you.”
Anli scratched his face, and the dissolute temperament that he always seemed to have in the past suddenly disappeared, and he looked here with a somewhat candid look.
"Come on, I don't want to be a coward in front of you. It's very troublesome just thinking about it. Don't you know what kind of person you are?" Qi Xiu retorted, with a rare look of headache on his face.
"...I'm not kidding." Anli frowned, and then sighed, "You can be counted as someone I have watched grow up. I don't know how much you weigh, but you are just a little child. , what big responsibility can you take?"
"Listen to my advice as an elder. Isn't it enough to just be an ordinary person and have a worry-free life? I don't really want to ask you what to do."
Qi Xiu was silent for a moment, and suddenly remembered that when he had just understood the method of reshaping, the man in front of him seemed to have a strange expression... He immediately suppressed this thought, he would not doubt this man.
"I don't quite understand what you mean." Qi Xiu replied pretending to be surprised.
A touch of impatience appeared on Anri's face, he scratched his head a little irritably and let out a heavy sigh.
"Didn't I say, why are you so stubborn? Is it because I don't have the temperament of an elder?"
Anli looked here suddenly, with a bit of cruelty in his eyes.
"You have to know that there are too many mental illnesses in the world that cannot be cured by any doctor. Not long ago, there was a patient who wanted to beat someone up. It was so lawless!"
Anli couldn't help but curse, but when he saw the suspicious eyes of the person in front of him, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly changed the subject, his expression instantly becoming serious.
"You kid, don't think about others with your bad intentions all day long, it's simply unreasonable!"
Qi Xiu smiled, then looked away, his eyes looking particularly focused.
"...What are you looking at?" Anli stopped talking and looked at where the other person was looking. That was a window through the outside world, a deliberately imagined passage to the outside world.
"I have read in a book that in the past, people would always use certain rituals to welcome the arrival of a certain moment."
"It's like thunder, it's like thunder, it's smoke, it's colorful."
"I always wonder, why can something like that put people's thoughts in their hearts?"
Qi Xiu's pure eyes stared at the dark sky, contrasting with the night color, making the depths of his eyes dyed with a dark color, as if he was murmuring, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"............" Anli looked at the figure in front of him, a complicated look flashed in his eyes.
"Please take a look." Qi Xiu said softly.
Stab, sting.
The rapid sound pierced the sky, illuminating the originally dim pupils, leaving a bright color on the black night.
Thunder crackled.
Like a herd of beasts galloping, like thousands of people singing their praises, like a prosperous dynasty, like the world as it was before.
The bright colors pierced the sky, the hot breath flowed in the heart, captured the sound with a strong voice, and dazzled the eyes with a brilliant light, and then, the prayers for the future were expressed at this moment.
"It's so beautiful..." Qi Xiu smiled, and then his voice became lower and lower, hidden under his lips, enveloped by the artificial light sound, so that no one could hear it.
However, Anri was not among them, he heard everything clearly.
('Like a shooting star.')
Anri looked at the figure in front of him and felt for the first time that this guy was no longer a boy, but a man who had grown into an adult.
If that's what you desire, he whispered to himself.
The man smiled, his radiant eyes looking at the dying, almost extinct lights on the edge, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
crackle.
She raised her head, with snow-colored fireflies hovering around her. Her eyes, like those made of ice and snow, stared at the distant sky, with an almost cold, solid expression on her face.
Behind him, there was a huge crowd, and families from all over the place gathered here.
Of course, most of the people who came to the banquet had their own purposes in mind, but out of respect for the host family, they still showed a respectful enough attitude.
As the future head of the family, Belusa also appeared here today.
"You will graduate tomorrow, what do you plan to do in the future?"
With a gentle smile and a handsome, almost teenage boy wearing a crisp light blue suit, he walked slowly.
His golden hair is like the sun, and his light green eyes look straight ahead, causing waves of commotion wherever he passes. People look at him with admiration, showing a respectful but not humble attitude.
The son of the former Prime Minister (Federal Commander-in-Chief), Fait.
Belusa only glanced at the other party lightly, and then looked away wordlessly.
Fait was not surprised. Belusa had always been indifferent, so he would feel strange if she really ignored him. Moreover, he also learned some information from other channels.
"Starting from next year, except for Qingnv who exists as a channel, other idols must become aliens before they can succeed. At the moment, it is only a draft of that one, but I think that even if there are some twists and turns, it will eventually be implemented. .”
"It's just like the First Union Hospital, isn't it?" Faced with Belusa's gaze, Fait showed a slightly childish smile.
"I will also join there. In the not-too-distant future, the people who come out of that academy will be the center of gravity of the entire federation. As a qualified 'messenger', this is my natural touch."
"...It has nothing to do with me." Belusa looked coldly, turned around and walked away.
Fait didn't chase him, he just caressed his chest, feeling his beating heart, with a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.
"It would be great if..." He prayed in a low voice, then covered up the fragility in his eyes, smiled again, and faced everyone, like a gentle nobleman, his figure gradually blended into the crowd among.
In the lonely rear courtyard, Belusa walked here on foot, her original indifferent expression changed, and she couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Screwed up again..." Her voice was full of loneliness. She obviously wanted to talk properly, but she couldn't. That time, it was just a coincidence.
Involuntarily, a figure appeared in her mind. It was an illusory figure that seemed likely to disappear at any time. She shook her head and opened her eyes.
"Uh!!!" She couldn't help but be startled.
"No matter how long it takes, little Beilu will always be like this." Shirley looked at the other party with subtle eyes, feeling a little surprised. Why did she work so hard to raise her, but the other party became more and more shy?
Man, it's amazing.
Shirley sighed in her heart, and then she put away her distracting thoughts and asked another question.
"How do you feel about that boy Fait?"
"...It's a bit scary." Belusa said tremblingly, looking cautious.
Shirley sighed in her heart and was a little confused for a moment. She tried to imagine that kind of little guy, but she could only think of a puppy that was just one month old and tried to intimidate others.
puff.
She forced herself to hold back her laughter and nodded as if understanding.
"Okay, forget it."
Shirley turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something and turned her head quickly.
"Oh, by the way, do you want to go to that academy? If you don't want to go, you don't have to go."
As for idols... Haha, she has thought about it now, what an idol, a useless thing.
Listening to another guy's complaints all day long, although she still maintains a certain personality, she actually doesn't care much anymore.
Shirley sighed and regretted why she had taken on the trouble of recruiting people for the other party, and now she had to be busy with it all day long.
"...Go." A weak voice came, but it contained a rare hint of determination.
"Yes, I understand." Shirley felt a headache, waved back, and walked forward.
Behind her, Belusa stood quietly.
She raised her head, and the dark colors covered her whole body, except for her face, which was still facing the sky.
The moonlight is like frost, shining on the earth.
The frost-colored eyes looked at the bright moon. After a moment, a golden pupil trembled in the outer circle, and in the depth, there was a dark light.
"Huh, interesting."
At night, only an arrogant voice sounded, and then it was washed away by the night.
