Unknowingly, Russell found that the time he spent at Delphinium's house began to gradually become longer.
Two weeks ago, Russell worked overtime with Uncle Herman all night because he had to prepare a birthday gift for Delphinium the next day.
Russell, who had not slept all night, gave himself an injection of "overtime music" in order to ensure that there would be no problems during the prosthetic surgery the next day.
Those colleagues in the Cyber Security Department sometimes give themselves a shot of energy to refresh themselves when they work overtime for more than twenty-four hours. It can effectively regulate blood pressure, protect the heart, and prevent sudden death while keeping your mind calm and your hands shaking.
As the head office of Happy Island, Tianen Group has priority in recruiting talents from all over the island.
That is the best talent pool among more than 40 million people. It can be said that there are many talents... Because of this, Tianen Group usually only needs to improve the welfare benefits of the head office, and it can easily recruit from other companies.
Recruit people and make them work for you sincerely.
The method is also very simple - the more other companies like to work overtime and not pay wages, the more they will not work overtime and pay more - anyway, they are a monopoly group and control more than two-thirds of the island.
of small companies.
As long as Tianen Group slightly raises the performance requirements for small companies, those small companies will have to ask employees to work overtime to complete the targets. The more outstanding the talents, the heavier the tasks will naturally be and the more tiring they will be... And the employees of those small companies will have to work overtime to complete the targets.
Senior executives may not have the brains to identify who are the core talents, nor may they have the awareness to please them. Maybe due to office politics, outstanding talents will be squeezed out.
When they leave their jobs, they will naturally go to Tianen Group or other head offices which offer high benefits and no overtime work.
This is an honest conspiracy.
But even so, colleagues in the cybersecurity department still often have to work overtime.
Because the business under the jurisdiction of the Cyber Security Department is relatively complex. In addition to surveillance cameras in various places, locating criminal chips, shallow data collection and analysis of suspected demons, and manual contact when the execution department is dispatched, there are also
Responsible for managing online public opinion, deleting fraudulent information on the Internet, maintaining the company's firewall, and defending or actively attacking psychic hackers.
Therefore, the Network Security Department not only works overtime, but even arranges a special night shift... But sometimes when it is busy, the day shift will also work overtime into the night shift, and the night shift will also work overtime into the day shift. Three to five times the gradually increasing overtime hourly wage,
Naturally, it is a wonderful way to soothe people's hearts, but the medicine commonly known as "Overtime" imported from Ampoule Biomedical is a powerful tool that can prevent sudden death and improve work efficiency.
When Russell was in school, he heard that some small companies on Holy Blood Island were trying to imitate this drug. As the head office of Holy Blood Island, Ampoule Biomedical not only did not stop them, but instead just watched them quietly.
operate.
It has been four or five years now, but I haven't heard of anyone succeeding. I have to say that Ampoule Biotechnology's level of pharmaceutical technology is almost unprecedented.
After Russell took the injection, the operation went very smoothly...but the injection only lasted until about six or seven o'clock in the evening. Although Ampoule Bio claimed that it could be injected three to four times in a row without causing any harm to the body.
Obvious damage. However, Russell believed that any medicine has side effects... so he did not refill the injection, but ran away directly after installing the new prosthetic body on Delphinium.
He didn't even have much dinner that night. When he got home, he just drank a bowl of instant noodles and fell asleep.
Russell slept for twelve hours that day, and when he woke up he felt refreshed and had no headache or fatigue. He also had to sigh that this medicine did have some merit.
When he came to Delphinium's house last weekend, because he left in a hurry last Sunday, he had to stay for a meal before leaving. Counting the visit on Saturday night, he was at Delphinium's house. It's equivalent to eating four meals and sleeping...
This week, Russell asked Miss Bingshui in advance that she would have Saturday off...so Russell and Delphinium came back at noon on Saturday.
This time Russell was left to sleep again by his uncle and aunt after finishing his meal on Sunday night.
He even discovered that Delphinium already had his own toiletries at his house.
...What is this feeling about?
Although they haven't confessed yet, people around them seem to agree that the two are dating...
But it's not that bad.
Anyway, nothing will happen to him when he goes back.
Russell has been staying in the Furnace of Pain this month, learning the magic applications of the Furnace School from Teacher Zhongxiang.
Strangler did not accompany the godfather... After sending the godfather over, he left within a few days.
Because I heard that some wild mages were born in the past month... Although the era of the "White Lion Group" was over, he couldn't let it go even if it was just because of his vigilance against malt liquor and his contempt for other mages. Those mages went to recruit new people on a large scale.
So Strangled went to the original wasteland again, preparing to bring back a few new apprentices to expand the power of his faction.
Exploring the dream world is not a rush if you are alone.
Just like a game you bought yourself, you may play it intermittently for several months, and only play it when you have time and energy; but if it is a game that can be connected online, the brothers can't wait to play it every night-occasionally If someone is slacking off for a day, several other brothers will take him away to have fun.
Because of this, when Strangler took Russell with him to explore the dream world, Russell's time was occupied every night.
But after Strangler left, Russell didn't quite know the way... He was also a little worried. Without Strangler to lead the way, he might not be able to come back if he left the Tornado of Pain too far, so he might as well just stay inside and not get out. Anyway, as long as He stayed in the Furnace of Pain, and even if he fell to the next area because he hadn't moved for a long time, he only had to come back.
What's a pity is that Mr. Zhongxiang is a relatively silent type, and three sticks can't hit a fart - Russell often surrounds Zhongxiang and asks about some common sense in the dream world. But Russell asked ten questions, and nine of them ended up being the same. The teachers would all answer silently with a sound of iron, and the remaining ones who were willing to answer a few sentences would probably give a brief summary of the Riddler-style reply in one sentence.
If he asked too many questions, he would be easily arrested by Zhong Xiang and given a beating on the chopping block. The beating would make Russell's head buzz.
But on the other hand, fortunately, Zhonggo is a relatively silent kind of mentor.
Russell occasionally didn't come to the dream world, and he didn't even ask him what he was doing... Of course, even if Russell was in the dream world, he might not teach anything.
It is said that other crazy mages are either extremely controlling and require their apprentices to "go online every night" to learn spells; or they like to send apprentices to designated areas to complete tasks and return to hand in the "certifications" they have obtained in exchange. School spells; some even eat students, or make students part of their own power; others let students hunt elves or angels, or make sacrifices for them in reality.
For example, a few days ago... on Friday night, Russell went to the Dream World to ask for leave from Zhongxiang.
As soon as Russell opened his eyes, he heard Zhongxiang blacksmithing in front of him. He said he was blacksmithing, but in fact he was taking off a part of his body and beating it.
So Russell leaned over and asked, "Teacher, what are you going to study tonight?"
Then Zhongxiang beat him in silence for half an hour, paying no attention to him.
Russell knew what he meant, which was that there would be no class tonight.
Russell asked again: "Teacher Zhong, can you tell me about the Moonlight Sect you mentioned last time?"
Zhongxiang might have been in a better mood that day, so he came up with the phrase "a madman trying to paint a picture."
There was no movement again.
After Russell asked again, Zhongxiang arrested him and beat him with a hammer. After the beating, his "thinking impurities" were removed. On that day, Russell's curiosity was hammered out.
So Russell asked Zhongxiang for two days off - he probably guessed at that time that he might not be able to come back on Sunday night.
Zhongxiang didn't ask why or what to do, he just continued to work in silence.
Russell understood that this was the teacher's approval.
——Such a complex way of communication means that Russell can read other people's thoughts.
He was actually quite curious about how the brainless lion, Strangler, communicated with Zhonggang... But unfortunately, Russell saw Strangler being yelled "Go away" for three consecutive nights and flew out.
But Russell could see one thing, that is, Zhongxiang really didn't like to teach students - just like the kind of graduate tutor who focuses on scientific research.
I have no intention of teaching at all, and the main purpose of recruiting graduate students is to do odd jobs...
The same goes for Zhongxiang.
It was like he was squatting in this place and concentrating on leveling, and then someone rushed over and said, "Teach me, boss." Zhongang's reaction was "brain shielding."
Judging from Zhongo's reaction speed, he could definitely hear it, and he was not "too absorbed in thought to react" at all. He just simply didn't want to pay attention to anyone.
From this point of view, the Melting Pot School really has no future...
Regarding this, Russell tentatively asked Zhongxiang that day - somewhat surprisingly, Zhongxiang didn't mind students changing jobs, and could even be said to encourage them.
Mr. Tsugogo finally spoke.
He said that he knew from the beginning that Russell was not suitable for the melting pot.
He also said that Hangzhou had completely deviated from the way of the furnace. Hangzhou did not dare to stay here because he had lost the power of the furnace school and was worried about being discovered by Zhongxiang - but he actually knew it a long time ago.
If Strangler continues to deviate from the Path of Wrath, even the Path of Wrath will withdraw its power from him...the power of the Fire of Wrath.
And Russell asked Zhongxiang, what path is suitable for him?
Then the teacher finally stopped talking again.
Just like an old man wearing a hearing aid, sometimes he can hear and sometimes not, but Russell can't be sure whether he really can't hear or is pretending not to...
But at least one thing can be known, that is, after Russell learns the "Incarnation of the Furnace"...that is, after Russell has coveted for a long time, strangled that cool spell that can turn himself into a ball of flame and move at high speed, Zhongang will not
I plan to teach myself something else.
At present, Russell has learned three spells: "Grip of the Furnace", "Flame Protection", and "Flame Infusion" from Teacher Zhonggo.
The first is the one often used in strangulation, which can evoke the flames of the furnace of pain through contact and burn others to ashes.
That flame can burn through steel and prosthetic bodies in an instant, not because of how high its temperature is... but because these flames coming from the "source of rage" are actually a kind of strange creature.
Yes, the creature... that exploding dark red flame, that red river of lava, is actually a spiritual creature similar to bacteria. It is essentially similar to the "devil". But it does not belong to the devil.
That kind of advanced intelligence is like ants and humans being carbon-based organisms.
They can erupt with a destructive power by devouring the emotion of "anger" and perform rapid self-replication. Flames and lava are only superficial manifestations. Its essence is a reduction reaction... so the "lovers" at that time
After Russell burned off her arm, her body temperature did not increase greatly. The prosthetic who was strangled and burned to death only had a small puddle left, and did not erupt with the ultra-high temperature that could burn onlookers.
, it’s more like it’s been “corroded” away.
Because of this, these "angry fires" can ignore "combustible" and "non-combustible" and burn directly regardless of the ignition point. Neither gold nor tungsten can resist the burning of this flame.
The process of learning spells is to pass the certification of the Tornado of Pain and introduce a little bit of the flame "tamed" by Zhonggo into one's own mental body - that is, the "self" body in the dream world, as an introduction.
.Once you have tamed the "fire" in your body, you can make them perform some simple reactions...such as bursting out from your body, blocking attacks or forcing others away, or temporarily injecting them into bullets and weapons.
In reality, the constant feedback of strong emotions from the heart will make people inevitably and unstoppably inclined to the path of "anger". This is why the power of other paths is needed to suppress it.
But fortunately, Russell usually does not need to switch to the identity of the godfather. Therefore, learning this spell will have a much smaller negative impact on him.
After mastering this spell, Russell draws the power of fire from the path of anger. It is no longer an ordinary fire of anger, but a higher concentration drawn from the furnace of pain - or from the river of anger.
, the more active "Rage" can also be operated simply.
——This is the secret of the "series of spells" unique to the Melting Pot School.
After learning this principle, Russell suddenly realized something...
His Saint's Beheading also uses the strength of "determination" to increase its toughness, cutting power and length. And after the determination fades, its length will immediately decrease and fade.
And the "sharpness" that seems to be able to cut all materials, but when cutting, sparks will burst out like a chainsaw... It seems to be essentially the same as the flame of the furnace school.
...From this perspective, psychic weapons and these "school spells" may be essentially the same.
The nature of psionic energy and magic - perhaps the same.
