Overturned Tower

Unknowingly, Russell found that his time at Delphinium's house began to gradually increase.

Two weeks ago, Russell had to work overtime with Uncle Herman all night because he had to prepare a birthday present for Delphinium the next day.

Russell, who didn't sleep all night, gave himself an injection of "overtime music" to ensure that there would be no problems during the prosthetic surgery the next day.

Those colleagues in the Network Security Department sometimes give themselves a refreshing shot when they work overtime for more than 24 hours. It can effectively regulate blood pressure, protect the heart, and keep your mind calm without shaking your hands while preventing sudden death.

As the head office of Happy Island, Tianen Group has the priority to recruit talents from all over the island.

That is the highest-quality talent pool among more than 40 million people, which can be regarded as having a large number of talents... Because of this, Tianen Group usually only needs to increase the welfare benefits of the head office, and can easily recruit from other companies. People, let them work for themselves 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 they control more than two-thirds of the island's small company.

As long as Tianen Group raises some performance requirements for small companies, those small companies will have to make their employees work overtime to meet the targets. , and they may not necessarily have the brains to tell who is the core talent, let alone have the consciousness to please them. Maybe under office politics, outstanding talents will be squeezed out instead.

And when they leave, they will naturally go to Tianen Group, which has high benefits and no overtime, or other head offices.

This is an aboveboard conspiracy.

But even so, colleagues in the network security department still have to work overtime often.

Because the business under the jurisdiction of the Network Security Department is relatively complicated. In addition to monitoring cameras in various places, locating criminal chips, shallow data collection and analysis of suspected demons, and manual contact when the execution department is dispatched, it is also responsible for managing Internet public opinion and deleting fraudulent information on the Internet. As well as maintaining the company's firewall, defending or actively attacking those psionic hackers.

Therefore, the Cyber ​​Security Department not only has overtime work, but also arranges special night shifts... But sometimes when it gets busy, the day shift will also work overtime to the night shift, and the night shift will also work overtime to the day shift. The gradual increase of three to five times the hourly salary for overtime work is naturally a coup to calm people's hearts. However, the drug commonly known as "overtime music" imported from Ampoule Biomedical is a sharp weapon 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 copy the drug. As the head office of Holy Blood Island, Ampoule Biomedical not only did not stop them, but quietly watched them operate.

It has been four or five years now, and I have never heard of anyone succeeding. It has to be said that Ampoule Biotech's level of pharmaceutical technology is almost chronological.

After Russell got the injection, the operation went very smoothly... But the duration of the injection was only around six or seven o'clock in the evening. Although Ampoule Biological claims that it can be injected three to four times in a row, it will not cause obvious damage to the body. However, Russell believes that any medicine has side effects... So he didn't continue the injection, but ran away directly after installing the new prosthetic body on Delphinium.

He didn't even eat much for dinner that night, he just drank a bowl of instant noodles when he got home and then fell asleep.

Russell slept for twelve hours at a stretch that day, but when he woke up again he felt refreshed and free from headaches and fatigue. He also had to lament that this medicine did have something to say.

And when he came to Delphinium's house last weekend, he had to stay for a meal at night because he left too hurriedly last Sunday. Counting the trip over on Saturday night, he ate four meals and slept one night at Delphinium's house...

This week, because Russell asked Miss Bingshui in advance, she was off on Saturday...so Russell and Delphinium came back at noon on Saturday.

This time, after finishing his meal on Sunday night, Russell was kept by his uncle and aunt to sleep again.

He even found out that the delphinium's house already had its own toiletries.

...what's the matter with this feeling?

Although there is no confession yet, the people around seem to agree that the two are in a relationship...

Not bad though.

Anyway, he's fine when he goes back.

Russell has been staying in the furnace of pain this month, learning the magic application of the furnace school from Mr. Zhongxiang.

Hanging did not accompany the godfather... After sending the godfather here, he left within a few days.

Because I heard that some wild mages were born in the last month... Although the era of the "White Lion Group" is over, even if it is just because of his vigilance against malt wine and his contempt for other mages, he can't let them go. The mage went to recruit new people on a large scale.

So Strangling went to the original wasteland again, preparing to bring back a few new apprentices to expand the power of his faction.

Adventures in the dream world are not in a hurry if you are alone.

It’s like a game I bought myself. It may last for several months on and off, and I will only touch it when I have time and energy; but if it is a game that can be online, the brothers can’t wait to have a good time every night—occasionally someone If you slack off for a day, you will also be picked up by the other brothers.

It is precisely because of this that when Hangsha took Russell to explore the dream world together, Russell's time was occupied every night.

But after the strangulation left, Russell didn't know the way... He was also a little worried that if he hadn't been led by the strangulation, he might not be able to come back if he left the furnace of pain too far, so he simply stayed inside and didn't go out. Anyway, as long as he stays in the furnace of pain, even if he falls to the next area because he hasn't moved for a long time, he just needs to come back.

It's a pity that Mr. Zhongxiang is a relatively silent type, and he can't beat a fart with three sticks—Russell often surrounds Zhongxiang to ask some common sense in the dream world. But Russell asked ten questions, nine of which the teacher would answer silently with the sound of blacksmithing, and the remaining one who was willing to answer two sentences would probably give a simple one-sentence reply in the riddleman style.

If you ask more questions, you will be easily caught by Zhong Xiang, pressed on the cutting board and hit with a hammer. Russell's mind was buzzing.

But on the other hand, fortunately, Zhongxiang is the kind of mentor who is relatively silent.

Russell didn't come to the dream world occasionally, and he didn't ask him what he was doing...Of course, even if Russell was in the dream world, he might not be able to teach anything.

It is said that other mad mages either have a strong desire for control and require apprentices to "go online every night" to learn spells; School spells; some even eat students, or make students part of their own power; some make students hunt elves or angels, or make some 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 Zhong Xiang strike iron in front of him. It is said to be blacksmithing, but in fact it is to dismantle a part of one's body and beat it.

So Russell leaned over and asked, "Teacher, what are you studying tonight?"

Then Zhong Xiang called him in silence for half an hour, and ignored him.

Russell knew what he meant, that there would be no class tonight.

Russell asked again: "Mr. Zhong, can you tell me about the Moonlight School you mentioned last time?"

Zhongxiang might be in a better mood that day, so he came up with the phrase "a madman who tries to be a picture".

Then there was no movement again.

Afterwards, Russell asked again, but was caught by Zhongxiang and beat him with a hammer. His "thinking impurities" were cleared after the beating, specifically referring to 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.

Zhong Xiang didn't ask why or what to do, but continued to forge in silence.

Russell understood that this was the teacher's approval.

— Such a complex way of communication, that is, Russell can read other people's thoughts.

He was actually quite curious as to how the brainless lion of Strangling communicated with Zhongxiang at ordinary times... But it was a pity that Russell saw Strangling being yelled "Get out" and flew out for three nights in a row.

But Russell can see one thing, that is, Zhong Xiang doesn't like to lead students - just like the kind of postgraduate tutor who focuses on scientific research.

I didn't intend to teach at all, the main purpose of the graduate students I accepted was to do odd jobs...

And the same is true for the end town.

He seemed to be squatting in this place and concentrating on leveling, and then someone rushed over and said, teach me, sir. And Zhongxiang's reaction was "brain shielding".

According to Zhongxiang's reaction speed, he can definitely hear it, and he is not "too engrossed to react" at all. It's just that I don't want to care about people.

From this point of view, the melting pot school really has no future at all...

Regarding this, Russell also tentatively asked Zhongxiang that day—to some surprise, Zhongxiang didn't mind students changing jobs, and it could even be said to encourage them.

Teacher Zhongxiang finally spoke.

He said that he knew from the very beginning that Russell was not suitable for the way of the furnace.

He also said that strangulation is a complete departure from the way of the furnace. Hang Ling didn't 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 Strangled continued to deviate from the Way of Wrath, even the Way of Wrath would withdraw its own power from him...power that belonged to the Fire of Wrath.

And Russell asked Zhongxiang again, what kind of path is suitable for him?

So the teacher finally stopped talking.

Like an old man wearing a hearing aid, sometimes he can hear and sometimes he can't, but Russell can't be sure whether he really can't hear or pretends not to hear...

But at least one thing can be known, that is, after Russell has learned the "melting furnace incarnation"... that is, after Russell has been greedy for a long time, strangling that cool spell that can turn himself into a ball of flames and move at high speed, he will not plan to Teach yourself something else.

At present, Russell has learned three spells from Mr. Zhongxiang, "Grasp of the Furnace", "Flame Protection", and "Flame Infusion".

The first is the one often used by Stranglers, who can burn others to ashes by touching the flames of the Furnace of Torment.

That flame can burn the steel and prosthetic body in an instant, not because of its high temperature... but because these flames from the "fountain of rage" are actually a strange creature.

Yes, creatures...the deflagrating dark red flames, the crimson lava river, but they are actually a kind of spirit creature similar to bacteria, which is similar to "demons" in essence. But there is no advanced intelligence that belongs to demons, just like ants and humans are both carbon-based creatures.

They can burst out a disintegrating power by devouring the emotion of "anger", and carry out rapid self-replication. The flame and lava are only appearances, and its essence is a reduction reaction...so at that time "lovers" were After Russell burned her arm, her body temperature was not greatly increased. As for the prosthetic man who was strangled and burned to death, there was only a small puddle left, and there was no burst of super high temperature that could burn the onlookers. It was more like being "corroded" away.

Because of this, these "flames of anger" can ignore "flammable" and "non-flammable", and burn directly regardless of the ignition point. Neither gold nor tungsten can resist the burning of this kind of flame~www.wuxiahere.com~ and the process of learning spells is to pass the certification of the furnace of pain and introduce a little bit of flame "tamed" by the end town into one's own body The mental body—that is, the "self" body in the dream world, is used as an introduction. Once you have tamed the "fire seeds" in your body, you can make them react in a simple way... such as erupting from your body, blocking attacks or forcing others back, or temporarily injecting them into bullets and weapons.

In reality, the constant feedback of strong emotions in the heart will make people inevitably and unstoppably inclined to the way of "anger", and it is for this reason that the power of other ways is needed as restraint.

But fortunately, Russell usually does not need to switch to the identity of godfather. Therefore, the subtle negative impact of learning this spell on him will be much smaller.

After mastering this spell, Russell draws the power of flames from the Way of Wrath. It is no longer an ordinary fire of rage, but a higher concentration, The more active "anger" can also be easily operated.

——This is the secret of the "series of spells" unique to the Crucible School.

After learning about this principle, Russell suddenly realized something...

His beheading of the saint also increased toughness, cutting power and length through the strength of "determination". And after the determination fades, its length will also decrease and fade immediately.

And the "sharpness" that seems to be able to cut all substances, but when cutting, sparks burst out like a chainsaw... It seems to be the same as the flame of the furnace school.

...From this perspective, the essence of psionic armament and these "school spells" may be the same.

The nature of psionics and spells—perhaps the same.
