"Zhuzi, come and sit." The man said calmly and looked at the empty sofa next to him.
Yuan Zhu thought for a while, walked over and sat down.
The two of them sat side by side, facing the setting sun outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Seeing that she had nothing to do here, Yuan's mother looked at Yuan Zhu's generous back. Even though he was sitting side by side with the burly man, Yuan Zhu still looked extremely strong.
However, in her eyes, no matter how tall Yuan Zhu grows, he will always be the child who screams in fright when he sees a caterpillar.
After hesitating for a moment, Yuan's mother asked weakly, "Zhuzi, when you have time, bring Xiaokai and come home for dinner. You haven't been home for a long time..."
Yuan Zhu turned around and said softly to his mother, "Mom, Jiang Kai probably won't have time to come back recently. I, I probably have to go to the base."
A trace of disappointment flashed in Yuan's mother's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She nodded to Yuan Zhu and said with a smile, "Okay, let's talk about it. I'm going to clean up the guest room." After that, she exited the room and smoothly walked out of the room.
Close the door.
After a while, the middle-aged man looked at Yuan Zhu and smiled slightly, "Your mother misses you very much."
Yuan Zhu lowered his head and nodded lightly, "I know, but..." With a long sigh, Yuan Zhu raised his head with a firm look in his eyes, "I want her to live a better life, so I have to work hard.
Enter the Battle Temple training camp!”
The man made no comment and turned to look out the window.
With the wide floor-to-ceiling windows and the curtains fully open, you can overlook many buildings and even the distant wall of the city in the middle of the river.
Above the city, there is a dim red sky. In the sky, behind the white clouds, a long arc vaguely outlines the partial outline of a huge star.
"That's the ghost star, both illusory and real." The man said quietly.
Yuan Zhu had always felt that this man was very mysterious. When they met again, he couldn't help but become more curious. Since the man mentioned the ghost star, he asked, "Uncle, what do you think the ghost star is?"
The man looked steadily and said calmly, "I don't know what the ghost star is, but when the ghost star comes, it is a war."
"war?"
"Yes, a war in which the unknown planet and the earth devour each other!" After saying that, the man looked at Yuan Zhu and sighed, "Unfortunately, at present, the total area of the ghost star territory occupied by us humans is less than the area of the ghost star.
One ten thousandth of the world’s population, yet the earth is now in devastation.”
"When the beast gods occupy more cities, human survival will become more and more difficult. When a certain critical point is exceeded, it will be difficult for the rest of us to survive. How can we fight against the ghost star?"
"That's when we humans, or the earth, will be defeated!"
Yuan Zhu frowned, "Why do you think so?"
The man smiled slightly, "Of course we have some evidence..."
""You"...Uncle, who are you?"
The man spoke calmly and said, "The military, the guild, do you think these are the only forces in today's chaotic world, or at the critical moment of human life and death? Then you are too naive."
"Who I am is not what you need to be concerned about right now." The man just revealed a little bit and then changed the subject and looked at Yuan Zhu, "Zhu Zhu, after you go online this time, someone will give you a skill book. The skills are very good.
Being strong can further enhance your strength."
Yuan Zhu frowned, but this was not the first time the mysterious man gave him something, so he just continued to listen.
"The things are not given to you for free, I also have requirements."
"What request?"
"I want you to enter the Temple of War."
Yuan Zhu took a deep breath. First of all, he is only qualified to participate in the training camp. Even if he passes the assessment, the Crouching Tigers, Hidden Dragons in the training camp are the elites of the country's elites. Among these people, only the best can enter directly.
Chinese War Temple.
"What? No confidence?"
Yuan Zhu nodded, "I, I don't know if I can do it. Also, uncle, you gave me the martial arts materials last time, and you gave me the skill book this time. What do you want to get from me?"
The man smiled slightly, "The way you look when you are drunk is very interesting... I, Yuan Zhu, am the best god of war in the world, hahahaha..."
Yuan Zhu was a little embarrassed, and when he was about to say something, the man suddenly stopped laughing, and then looked at Yuan Zhu with extremely sharp eyes and an extremely serious expression, "Yes, I just want you to become the best god of war in the world!"
Yuan Zhu's eyes widened and he looked at the man in shock.
The man's solemn expression softened after he finished speaking, "By the way, your friend Xiao Jiang Kai, can you tell me his occupation?"
"This..." Yuan Zhu hesitated again and again, shaking his head, "Many people want to target him. The more information he releases, the more detrimental it will be to him, so... uncle, I can't tell you."
The man was not angry. Instead, he had an expected feeling. He nodded, "It's about what I expected. You kid is not as cowardly as you seem. You will protect the people you care about at all costs."
"But even if you don't tell me, I know that Jiang Kai should be a new profession. Judging from the professions that have emerged so far, he does not meet the characteristics of any profession."
"Considering that I met you two in a dark alley before, he may have obtained some kind of powerful profession using incomplete materials."
Yuan Zhu thought to himself, in fact, it is not a "powerful" profession... he is just a gambler.
Even if Jiang Kai looks strong now, he is just like the rich man at the gambling table. Today you are extremely rich, but tomorrow you may be sleeping on the street. This is a gambler!
Only he and Nuannuan knew the pressure Jiang Kai had been under.
The man looked into the distance and said faintly, "For a new profession obtained from incomplete materials, it is even more difficult to obtain the materials for job transfer. Although that kid quickly reached a height that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, he is also likely to remain in the same place since then.
!”
"Besides, he doesn't seem to be an ambitious person."
"What a pity..."
……………………
The Vulcan team is rushing to the secret realm of the Valley of the Kings.
Jiang Kai sneezed for no reason.
"Is it possible that Nuannuan is thinking of me again?" Jiang Kai said with a frown.
Hu Yan snorted coldly, "Kaitsui, I've seen that you miss Nuan Nuan, but to be honest, you and Nuan Nuan have no chance."
Jiang Kai immediately frowned, "Old Hu, don't talk nonsense, I didn't! Hiss...but do you really think Nuan Nuan is not interested in me?"
Hu Yan shook his head, "It might be a bit interesting now, but you have to know that she and Zhu Zhu will have special training together. They might go to training camps, preparatory classes, or even enter the War Temple together in the future. Over time, they will fall in love.
Didn't you tell me, you don't have a chance."
"Am I not as good as Zhu Zhu?" Jiang Kai said unconvinced, "Don't women all like such big guys?"
Hu Yan said calmly, "You and Zhu Zhu are childhood friends. Has he ever had a girlfriend before?"
"This...it seems like there have been one or two."
"And you?"
"I...I've had three or four."
"Don't brag, I can read faces!" Hu Yan looked at Jiang Kai carefully.
Jiang Kai suddenly lost his confidence and sighed, "Yuan Zhu has had three girlfriends. I, ahem, it's mainly because I have a higher vision and have never found the right one."
Hu Yan shrugged, "It's hard to say whether the vision is high or not, but the result is already clear."
Ruan Yu held it in for a long time, and suddenly said, "Kaitai, your vision is too high and easy to handle. Do you want to drink some wine? I promise that after drinking, you will open the door to a new world!"
Thinking of Ruan Yu's behavior after being drunk, Jiang Kai had a dark look and quickly rejected Ruan Yu's kindness.
Walking in the Valley of the Kings, ordinary wild animals no longer posed a threat to them. The next afternoon, the Vulcan team arrived at the area where the secret realm was located.
Using the coordinates marked on the information card, they found a wooden house hidden in the corner of the valley.
The Vulcan team hid behind a rock and observed the wooden house from a distance.
There are barren mountains nearby, with sparse vegetation, and a good view. However, the wooden house is built against the mountain, and the wooden house is earthy gray, almost blending in with the surroundings. If you don't observe it closely, it is indeed not easy to spot at a rough glance.
"Is this a secret realm?" Even after receiving accurate information, Jiang Kai and others were still surprised.
Normally, even if they saw this wooden house, they would probably choose to ignore it.
After observing for a long time, there was no movement in the wooden house. Jiang Kai thought about it, walked out from behind the rock, and said, "No matter what, let's go in and take a look."
