Cao Quan died on the spot, causing the government leaders who led the way and Xia Xiaofei's father to tremble.
"Xiao Fei, did you kill someone?"
Father Xia swallowed, his voice trembling unconsciously.
When he was a soldier, the Xia Kingdom had been at peace for a long time. Although he participated in a large-scale exercise, he never killed anyone or even saw anyone die in front of his eyes.
On weekdays, when he works as a driver for his boss, he can only deal with ordinary social gangsters.
Really speaking, he had foreseen murder countless times, but he never thought that the murderer was his son.
Apparently they were talking about organization just a moment ago, and the next second they were talking, laughing and killing people.
Is this really his son?
Did he transform his son into a killing machine after being studied for this year?
I have to say that although Father Xia is old, his thinking is still very trendy. He watches science fiction movies and novels frequently and watches short videos frequently.
For a moment, his mind was in chaos.
Suddenly he thought of something. Xia's father quickly walked into the bedroom, and soon came out with a bank card and urged:
"Xiao Fei, here is my father's retirement bonus and the research subsidy given to me by the state this year. There are more than 400,000 yuan in total. Take it and don't come back again, and don't write or call home.
Why are you so impulsive, kid? What can't you say properly?"
He sighed, a little confused.
Xia Xiaofei looked at his father's operation. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled lightly and said:
"Don't worry dad, I am a special talent and have a license to kill. If you don't believe me, ask Yanzi, is it Yanzi?"
He wants to be a good baby in front of his parents.
But who asked Cao Quan to jump out and seek death on his own?
In his ten years of gaming career, he has used his own life to prove a truth many times. Since there is a feud, it is best not to kill someone overnight.
Otherwise, who knows what trouble he might cause in the end.
He was not in the mood or interested in playing any jealousy games with Cao Quan.
Kill someone first to establish your authority, so as not to provoke someone who doesn't have the foresight to provoke him in the future.
Ren Yanyan smiled bitterly, nodded to Xia's father again and said:
"Uncle, don't worry, Brother Xiaofei will be fine."
She made a seal on her hand, and a burst of cold air came out, freezing Cao Quan's body. Then the frozen body shrank in mid-air and was taken into her hands.
After all, they are all colleagues, so it is only right to help collect the body.
But Xia Xiaofei felt happy, and it would be very troublesome for her to deal with the funeral arrangements.
Thinking about it, she couldn't help but give Xia Xiaofei a rollicking look, and even complained about the dead Cao Quan, who just followed him here to join in the fun.
"Spells? Gods? Am I dreaming?"
Seeing Ren Yanyan reaching out to collect the body, Xia's father rubbed his brows and sat down on the sofa, unable to regain consciousness for a long time.
"Brother Xiao Fei, please explain to your uncle and aunt, I still have to wipe your butt."
Ren Yanyan turned around, and the horse followed him with a swing, which made Xia Xiaofei's young body and mind feel an inexplicable throbbing.
"Captain Liu, please bring us over."
"No trouble."
Team Liu, who was leading the way, wiped the sweat from his forehead and laughed dryly.
After the two bodies left.
"Xiao Fei, what on earth is going on?"
Xia's father quickly asked, and Xia's mother, who had been standing in the kitchen without disturbing him, also came out, her eyes full of worry.
"Well, it's a long story."
Xia Xiaofei didn't hide much from his parents, he just hid the dangers in the game, such as the fact that any mission that failed would be wiped out.
He just picked out some bizarre and interesting adventure stories, and told them to Father Xia and Mother Xia with great concentration, exclaiming from time to time, looking strange.
Xia Xiaofei smiled faintly, and then began to encourage his parents to have a second child in response to the country's call.
…
Two months later.
Kyoto, a national building.
Xia Xiaofei woke up leisurely in his independent office. He yawned and stood up unsteadily, preparing to go to the canteen.
Although at his level, his need for food has become extremely weak, he is a five-star chef specially found by the country and is proficient in cuisines from all over the world.
This month, he has not eaten anything heavy.
Every day is like opening a blind box, bringing a different kind of fun to his boring and boring life of fishing.
When I arrived at the canteen, I saw that today was Sichuan cuisine.
He sat down with a low-key piece of boiled cabbage and began to enjoy the state banquet delicacy that he had never tasted before.
Suddenly, a dinner plate was placed opposite him, and Ren Yanyan's bright smile bloomed in front of his eyes.
"You're back. It's good. No one is missing an arm or a leg. It seems the mission went well."
Xia Xiaofei took a mouthful of cabbage and a mouthful of soup. The layered aroma of meat was reflected in a piece of cabbage, which made Xia Xiaofei couldn't help but admire the master's superb cooking skills.
Ren Yanyan said angrily: "Since you know you care about me, why don't you do the task with me?
Brother Xiaofei, you are too lazy. You have been joining the countermeasures team for a month, but I heard that you haven't taken on a single mission.
There is so much chaos outside now. With your help, society will be more stable."
Xia Xiaofei had different opinions.
"You do not understand."
"What don't I understand?"
It seems that the long-lost real life has awakened Ren Yanyan's modern consciousness, and she has temporarily forgotten everything in the Fairy and Demon Continent.
Her tone was a little more playful than before.
Xia Xiaofei said seriously:
"If I don't take action, it will be the greatest stability for society."
Ren Yanyan: "..."
"Okay, every time I talk about this, you interrupt and tell me the real thing."
Ren Yanyan changed the topic and said:
"Recently, the Academy of Sciences has developed an instrument to detect the concentration of spiritual energy in the air. After their recent testing, they found that spiritual energy seems to only appear in our Xia Kingdom.
And the center point of spiritual energy is in the Great Smoky Mountains.
It’s the place where our bodies slept before.”
Xia Xiaofei looked serious: "You mean we brought the spiritual energy?"
Ren Yanyan nodded and said: "This is what the think tank of the countermeasures team means. They speculate that if the next game starts, the richness of the spiritual energy will most likely increase further.
Do you know what this means?"
Xia Xiaofei's eyes flashed, and he replied word for word: "The demons are dancing wildly."
Nowadays, players do not have much advantage at the national official level. One of the important reasons is the environment of the world.
Otherwise, for ordinary people, a foundation-building monk with a soul at the peak of the golden elixir can be called a dimensionality reduction blow.
Because the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is thin, players replenish their mana slowly. Faced with the siege of ordinary people, once their mana is exhausted, they are easily hit by various weapons of mass destruction and killed head-on.
However, players are not fools. Most of the time when faced with official siege, they will kill randomly first, and then run away decisively when most of their mana is consumed.
At this time, you have to look at the official players.
Fortunately, there are not many magic players. Even if most players do not want to be absorbed by the country and be restrained, they will not be extreme in retaliating against society and maintain an attitude of "If you don't mess with me, I won't cause trouble."
Otherwise today's society will be even more chaotic.
Once the rebellious magic players show up, they will be strongly suppressed by official players with public support.
Most of Ren Yanyan's recent tasks are like this.
And because of her neat attacks and pretty appearance, Ren Yanyan was nicknamed Fairy Feiyan among the countermeasures team.
There are many players and non-players pursuing it.
Xia Xiaofei, who was originally close to Ren Yanyan, must have been the target of revenge by his suitors, but thanks to Cao Quan's unfriendly sacrifice, Xia Xiaofei's reputation was well known, so no unsighted person dared to provoke him.
Everyone knows that this young man who likes to hide in the office to fish, and go to the canteen to eat when he has nothing to do is a ruthless person, the kind who will kill him if he makes a move.
After all, the punishment announcement is still posted in the lobby.
"Eh……"
Hearing this, Ren Yanyan sighed and said somewhat dejectedly:
“I don’t know whether this revival of spiritual energy is good or bad. Are we going to become a world like the Fairy and Demon Continent, where the weak eat the strong?
Peace is hard-won, so why can't we all work together to build the country?"
Xia Xiaofei smiled and said, "This is simple."
"Huh? You have a way."
Ren Yanyan's eyes lit up.
Xia Xiaofei said: "As long as you can suppress all players by yourself, if you let them go west, they will not dare to go east; if you let them build the country, they will not dare to destroy public property.
Just like the Qingxiao Taoist, one person suppresses an entire group, how majestic and domineering it is."
The light in Ren Yanyan's eyes suddenly went out.
"What you said is like saying nothing. If I have that ability, I must first find out the company behind that game and beat them up."
Xia Xiaofei shook his head and said: "It seems you still don't understand what I mean. You are running around to do tasks, and you haven't practiced cultivation for a long time.
Your cultivation is still at the same level, but others will not wait for you.
Especially those magic players, they have no taboos. If their spiritual energy is insufficient, they will feed on blood as their energy. Moreover, they still have the divine soul realm at the peak of the golden elixir. At least there is no bottleneck before reaching the golden elixir realm.
At that time, will we still rely on ordinary people to sacrifice their lives?
That would not be the sacrifice of a few people and dozens of people now, but hundreds or thousands of people, and it is still not necessarily possible to catch them."
"By the way, I heard that the superiors recently asked you to capture them alive, right?"
Ren Yanyan said: "They said they wanted to conduct some inhumane research on those magic players, so they used the waste."
But the more she talked about it, the less confident she became.
Obviously she understands something, but she still chooses to escape. She doesn't want to dedicate her love and efforts and see her bright career as tainted.
"It seems that you also understand that practicing immortality is something that no one can refuse. Even if they cannot live forever, even if they live for decades, they are afraid that they will not be able to ask for it.
Research is research, but do you know why they are doing research?"
Xia Xiaofei saw that Ren Yanyan seemed to have found a new goal in life recently and was planning to devote all her enthusiasm to it, so she had to remind her.
Even in the Xia Kingdom in modern society, there are still evil people in people's hearts, but their evil is hidden under the cloak of goodness and beauty.
"What on earth do you mean?"
Recently, Ren Yanyan felt that she and Xia Xiaofei seemed to be traveling farther and farther apart. Although the distance was close, the spiritual contact was becoming less and less.
Xia Xiaofei said: "I just want you to practice well. I know you are a good girl with lofty ideals and want to help more people.
But don’t forget that in this new era of spiritual practice, your own strength is the only one you can rely on.
When the new era eliminates you, it will not say hello to you."
The smile on Ren Yanyan's face disappeared, and she lowered her head and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, she raised her head and smiled at Xia Xiaofei:
"No matter what the future holds, I will keep on doing it and make the world what I want it to be.
Even though I know it’s difficult to do it given my abilities, I still have to give it a try, right?
But Brother Xiaofei, you are right, I will seize the time to practice in the future, at least I won’t let those disgusting magic players surpass me."
Xia Xiaofei pondered for a moment, looked at Ren Yanyan's clear and firm eyes, and said slowly:
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If that time comes, you...and me."
"Um!"
Ren Yanyan nodded heavily, her face instantly brightened.
At this moment, she suddenly understood that she had always been the one who took the initiative to distance herself, while Xia Xiaofei just stood there, never retreating or leaving.
…
The changes in Xia Kingdom and even the entire Blue Star are just a natural result of the arrival of spiritual energy.
All this has nothing to do with Fang Chang.
He was sitting on his boss' chair, and streams of light flashed before his eyes, which were the heavenly merits given by the heavenly law of Zhouguang Great World.
The way of heaven is still sleeping, but it has its own mechanism of operation.
What's more, there are Tiandao's little brats beside him to support him.
Fang Chang brought the first small-scale spiritual energy recovery to this big world, which was of great benefit to Heaven.
It was only at this moment that the spiritual energy recovery stabilized, and Heaven's response finally arrived.
"Five heavenly merits are enough for me to do what?"
Qitian sat on the desk, crossed his short legs, and said with a flattering smile:
"There are a lot of things to do. Take the Law Crystal as an example. A piece of heavenly merit can be exchanged for a Law Crystal.
You can also ask Heaven to empower you, draw the power of creation, and purify the chaotic laws of the sea of laws for you. A piece of Heaven's merit can save you two to three hundred years of practice time.
There is also the most important role, which is to obtain the authority of heaven.
A piece of Heavenly Dao merit can be exchanged for at least one hundred thousandth of the Heavenly Dao authority. This is the price of Heavenly Dao's father sleeping.
When Father Tiandao wakes up, it won’t be this price.”
Fang Chang touched his chin and said, "Five law crystals, they're not too bad."
After all, he once sacrificed a small secret world and only a few law crystals.
But now all he has to give is a little time.
Sure enough, anything illegal is just profiteering.
"Then prepare for the second game update. When will you be ready?"
The main reason why players can only reach the peak of Jindan is that Qitian can only bear this level.
Therefore, if players want to continue to upgrade, Qi Tian must upgrade first.
Qi Tian made an estimate: "It will take another two years. By then I should be able to digest all the merits of Father Tiandao."
Yes, this guy is also rewarded with heavenly merit.
