Although Grant made him laugh and cry, Xia Xu actually found a bank on the way and wired him 50,000 yuan.
In fact, Grant was probably just joking. Today, he was mainly here to remind him to pay attention to his safety. Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited so long to come to him to ask this question.
But after all, it is a promise to others. Friendship is friendship, and transaction is transaction. Since it is a transaction, it must have a beginning and an end.
If someone else, Xia Xu, was too lazy to bother, he would just treat it as a favor, but Grant, a poor guy, was really short of money, so he had to give it to him. He had indeed forgotten about this before.
"Oh, now I only have 50,000 to 60,000 yuan in my card. How come the more money I make, the more I feel like I don't have enough money to spend."
After looking at the balance in the card, Xia Xu sighed and had dinner after coming out of the bank before returning home.
The first thing after returning home was to find Uncle Luo to continue routine fighting training.
He has never stopped training in the morning and evening these days, but since he initially mastered the melee combat ability with the help of the Mechanical Centipede Spine and Super Brain Potion last Saturday, his training has gradually been adjusted to basic physical fitness and actual combat training.
Relying on the effect of the super brain potion, he has memorized a large number of fighting skills in his mind. The only thing missing now is physical fitness and actual combat.
The actual combat capabilities he has today are actually largely based on super-brain potions. Without the brain overclocking state brought by super-brain potions, it is difficult for him to have enough time to think and make decisions in battle. If he wants to do it in a regular way,
In order to still show superb fighting ability, you need to practice more and practice more.
Fortunately, Uncle Luo, a fighting master who stands at the pinnacle of mankind, feeds him moves every day, and has super-brain potions to enhance his learning ability, so his daily progress can be said to be very fast.
Not only his own combat ability has improved, but also his knowledge learning. This feeling of steadily improving himself step by step makes him feel very fulfilled.
But the video Grant sent today undoubtedly added a touch of haze to his heart.
A mutant or superhuman who can control bones kills passers-by, and then is killed by a masked 'freak'.
Although Grant said it briefly, this scene is very similar to those in superhero movies. Using this as the main line and adding some backgrounds and subplots, this is a real superhero movie.
This also confirmed that his previous guess was correct, and the world was undergoing some drastic changes.
Planet Aquamarine may have originally been just a parallel technological world similar to Earth, but with the 'plots' unfolding all the time everywhere, the entire world has gradually undergone earth-shaking changes.
The most terrible thing is that these plots are not all ‘ordinary’ plots that comply with the current social background, but many of them obviously involve things at the inhuman level.
The human-animal hybridization and gene fusion technology represented by werewolves, the human body enhancement technology of mechanical centipedes, and the special drugs of Super Brain Potion... These are just the ones that appeared in a small star city. They are all black technologies that are beyond the times and give ordinary people incredible abilities.
In addition, the video clips sent by Grant this time are suspected to be from a superhero movie, which at least involves two characters with special powers: a protagonist and a villain.
Looking around the world, how many similar situations are there? How many extraordinary people have been born, and how many technologies or things have even been used to mass-produce extraordinary people and mutated monsters?
If things continue like this, even if Aquamarine doesn't turn into a chaotic world filled with monsters and extraordinary chaos, it will gradually become a world similar to Marvel and DC, with constant natural and man-made disasters and frequent occurrences of special creatures and events.
Maybe it's even more troublesome.
The Marvel movies he watched before time travel were actually limited to the plots of a few characters. If you count them down, the number of real events was not too many.
And how many "plots" will there be in Aquamarine's current situation? One thousand? Ten thousand? One hundred thousand?
Even if 99% of them are normal urban plots, the remaining 1% will be an extremely outrageous number, and superhero plots will basically involve villain organizations.
Compared with the protagonists, the villain organizations that serve as backgrounds in most cases are often the most outrageous. They can brag as much as they want, rule the world and destroy it at every turn, and master all kinds of awesome things.
It would be okay if it follows the original plot, and the protagonist can save the world in the end, but if many plots collide and ferment and lead to a slight deviation, or if he, a little butterfly, flaps his wings, the entire Aquamarine Star will be like taking a jujube pill.
Therefore, Xia Xu was already full of a sense of crisis and urgency at this time.
In fact, he had been vaguely aware of this sense of crisis for a long time, otherwise he would not have been so anxious to realize the profits of Feizhou Studio, but he still had this sense of luck and escape in his heart.
Maybe his guess was just a random thought, maybe things wouldn't be that bad, maybe there was still a lot of time... No one was immune to luck, but Grant's warning this time made him understand that he had to face this cruel fact.
As an ordinary high school student, he can basically just go with the flow in the face of the general trend of this era. His destiny is not under his control at all, and he doesn't know when he will fall into the hands of a certain plot character.
Only by seizing the time to improve your self-protection ability as much as possible and mastering enough power and voice, you may be able to have a place in the future and protect yourself and the safety of those you cherish when a real crisis may come.
"Are you impatient?"
Luo Hongyun, who was sparring with Xia Xu, obviously felt that Xia Xu was impetuous today and couldn't help but frown.
"Kind of."
Xia Xu stopped and opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to talk.
You said that there are many movie-like plots in this world? Are you included in the plot? You said that you are worried that these plots will make Aquamarine a mess?
In the end, he could only give a wry smile: "Uncle Luo, don't you think the world has changed a bit? Werewolf, Colclough, Grant sent me another mutant today, these messy things seem to be getting more and more...
The more.”
"If the sky falls, a tall man will hold it up."
Luo Hongyun paused after hearing this and was silent for a moment before he managed to find a word of comfort. He hesitated for a moment and then said: "Just in time, I have something I want to discuss with you."
"Discuss with me?"
Xia Xu was stunned, nodded and said, "Uncle Luo, please tell me."
"I promised to be your fighting teacher and bodyguard..."
Luo Hongyun hesitated.
"Uncle Luo, are you planning to take up the bodyguard position with me?"
Xia Xu said unexpectedly.
In fact, based on his current relationship with Uncle Luo, it doesn't matter whether he is a bodyguard or not. Anyway, if he is in danger or needs help from Uncle Luo, he will definitely help him.
There is actually no need to keep him with you at all times. Atuo's current combat power is already very strong. Although it is slightly inferior to Uncle Luo, there are several werewolves who can only deliver food. Colclough is coming back to life.
Even in the last fight, Atuo would have beaten him to death.
Therefore, he did not mention the matter of bodyguards again in the following period, but if Uncle Luo was really willing to be his bodyguard, he would still be very happy, not to mention giving Uncle Luo more salary or something.
"no."
A little embarrassment appeared on Luo Hongyun's face: "You also said that there have been a lot of messy things recently. After the werewolf incident was reported last time, the superiors planned to set up a special department and asked me to go back and lead a special operations team..."
"This is a good thing. Uncle Luo, why are you hesitating?"
Xia Xu also understood after hearing this that Uncle Luo was worried about himself, and immediately showed a happy look.
"But you..."
Luo Hongyun hesitated.
He is actually in a bit of a dilemma now. He has promised to recall him if he can, and he has promised to teach and protect Xia Xu. Moreover, both of them are cherished by him, so he really can't make a choice.
"It actually doesn't matter to me. Having Atuo to protect you is much more reliable than Uncle Luo."
Xia Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He changed the subject again and said with a smile: "On the contrary, Uncle Luo, you can better protect me if you go to the special department and become an official. If there are these messes again, I will directly ask Uncle Luo to bring someone to deal with them."
Tutu, you are still in charge of this anyway, right?"
This is what he really said.
Firstly, I don’t want Uncle Luo to be in trouble and I am really happy for him. Secondly, it is indeed in line with his interests.
As I said just now, there is no point in having Uncle Luo in normal protection, but if there is really any need for Uncle Luo to intervene, he can call him over at any time. With such full favorability, he will definitely ask Uncle Luo for help.
A matter of words.
Moreover, Uncle Luo joins the official action team to deal with these special events. He has a group of subordinates and a large number of regularly held thermal weapons. He will definitely be able to help much more. After all, when Uncle Luo can be asked to help
I must have encountered all kinds of messy monsters and villains.
Besides, with Uncle Luo as a backer in the official department, it will be easier for him to get involved in the plot in the future. Otherwise, if he is always running into murders and monsters, he will often walk by the river without getting wet shoes. Sooner or later, people from this department will come to check.
water meter.
Check my water meter? Do you know about my uncle Luo Hongyun?
Do you know that I am innocent, the guardian of justice and the leader of the special operations team, Luo Hongyun, guarantee it?
Oh, wait, this seems to mean that I am on the official line, right?
After the company is launched and we find a few technical masters to crack the mechanical centipede spine and the wolf enhanced serum, can we apply for a special license and become an official supplier? And support policies and orders will definitely be indispensable.
.
"Actually, I can't let go of Louise. What if I agree to Louise's offer?"
Luo Hongyun sighed after listening to Xia Xu's words, and it seemed that he was planning to refuse.
"Don't, Uncle Luo, let me calculate, it won't be long before someone can help you take care of Louise."
