My Endless Life.

Chapter 110 They Can Only Go to the Fog Sea

"You little brat, I didn't expect that I would hear the news that you are going to become a fog explorer just after I came back from the fog area. You are only fourteen years old this year, right? Fourteen years old!

"When your mother was your age, she was playing house in the capital. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Believing Carol's identity for the time being, Li Qi followed behind Carol and listened to the mumbling of this dirty little girl.

Let’s not talk about whether this pink-haired loli in front of us is the mysterious person who sent Li Qi to the welfare home.

Anyway, she is a fog explorer of the fog level, which is an indisputable fact.

There are five levels of fog explorers, corresponding to the five levels in the fog area.

They are thin fog, residual fog, heavy fog, mist and black fog. Mist is the highest level except black fog.

And with only nine Black Mist-level explorers existing in the entire country, Mist is the top one.

Carol is at the fog level, so she is very likely to allow Li Qi to skip the training time and enter the fog area directly.

This is why Li Qi followed Carol.

Even though he has not yet confirmed the other party's identity.

Carol cursed herself for a long time, and when she found no response after a while, she turned her head and looked at Li Qi:
"Hey! Give me some reaction, kid! What are you thinking? At the age of fourteen, you're thinking of running into the foggy area?"

"..."

A thousand thoughts flashed through Li Qi's mind in an instant.

He looked at the loli aunt standing in front of him, whose height was not even as high as his chest, and suddenly had an idea.

His acting skills, which he had cultivated in the music world, came into play instantly. He said stubbornly with a cold face:

"This has nothing to do with you."

"Your mother asked me to take care of you before she went to the Endless Fog Sea! This has something to do with me!"

"Then you haven't come to see me in these years!!"

"I was following the exploration team...Okay, okay, I get it. You're in your rebellious phase, right? You feel abandoned and wronged, right?

"Don't worry, I won't leave for a short time after I come back this time. Is that okay?"

Carol said with a mature look on her face.

This made Li Qi feel very strange. Looking at the other person's appearance, he always felt that the other person was the reincarnated person who was reincarnated into the child's body.

I don’t know what the relic Carol signed is that allows her to remain in her current state.

Li Qi thought in his heart, but on the surface he still looked indifferent:
"Since you haven't cared about me for so many years, you don't have to care about me this time. I want to become a member of the Tanwu family. That's my freedom and has nothing to do with you."

What a classic line from a rebellious teenager...

After Li Qi finished speaking, he couldn't help but complain in his heart, and Carol couldn't help but feel veins popping out of her head:
"Hey! You little brat—!"

"Hey! Carol, what are you arguing about here? Aren't you afraid of getting wrinkles on your young face?"

Just as Carol was about to lecture Li Qi, a rough voice came from a distance.

Li Qi could see that veins popped out on Carol's forehead, the irritable little girl, and she turned her head to look into the distance.

Following Carol's gaze, Li Qi saw the person who spoke.

He was tall and strong, looking nearly two meters tall, and was wearing the emblem of the Mist Explorer. He was the leader when the exploration team returned.

Li Qi was thinking about the other party's identity, but Carol had already cursed:

"Maru, you want to die, don't you? If you want to die, just tell me, and next time we go to the foggy area, I'll kill you!"

"Look at you, you got angry again just for a joke."

The Tanwu family named Malu came over and looked down at Li Qi and Carol in front of him. He smiled and said:
"I saw you were not here, so I came out to look for you. I didn't expect you to start flirting with little boys?"

"Maru!!!"

The veins on Carol's forehead popped out more. She shouted Maru's name angrily, then raised her right leg decisively.

The right leg in the boots hit Maru's waist hard, but Maru did not move. He raised his hand to block Carol's flying kick. A faint impact wave spread at the point where the two people touched.

Listening to the dull sound and watching the wind generated by the collision of their fists and feet, Li Qi's eyes twitched.

He previously thought that the power system of this world was not very strong. After all, all the power in this world came from relics and treasures.

Relic treasures are external objects and cannot bring any enhancement to the body.

At least Li Qi's Magic Cube did not enhance Li Qi's body.

In other words, apart from the relics and treasures, most of the Tanwu family are ordinary people.

This is also the reason why Li Qi dared to confront Carol and wanted to fight with her.

He didn't think that there was anyone in this world who could defeat him, who mastered knight skills and magic, without using the relic treasures.

But now seeing the brief confrontation between Carol and Maru, Li Qi realized that he seemed to have thought about something wrong.

At least judging from the strength of Carol and Maru, their strength should definitely exceed the limit that ordinary people should reach.

In this world...is there a special cultivation system?
As Li Qi was thinking this, he heard Malu and Carol talking again.

Maru grabbed Carol's leg, blinked and said:

"You're so angry...did I say something wrong?"

"Asshole! This is Chris's son! What do you think?"

Carol pulled her legs away from Maru and rolled her eyes at him.

Hearing the name Chris, Maru's expression instantly became serious, and there was a lot more seriousness in his eyes when he looked at Li Qi.

After looking him up and down for a few times, Malu suddenly realized:
“…No wonder I felt this guy looked familiar just now. His eyes are exactly the same as Chris’s.”

Li Qi's hair color in this life is brown, which is nothing special compared to the beautiful dark gold in his previous life.

But the difference is that in this life, Li Qi's eyes are different in color from those of ordinary people. They are a pair of golden eyes.

Gold-like color.

……

"I'm sorry. I'm not a very pleasant person. I just said that to tease Carol. Don't take it seriously."

In a nearby pub, in a separate small room, Malu poured wine for Li Qi and apologized.

Carol snatched the wine glass from Li Qi's hand and stared at Maru with her red eyes that showed a hint of pink:

"This kid is only fourteen years old, he drinks shit!"

"Tsk, if that's the case, you look only twelve years old, and you shouldn't be drinking."

Maru also glared at Carol.

The two stared at each other for a long time before Li Qi slowly took the cup of juice and said to them:

"Whether it's drinking or something else, it doesn't matter. What matters is... who are you? And who is Chris...?"

Through the previous conversation between Carol and Maru, Li Qi certainly knew that Chris was his biological mother in this life, but he still wanted to hear what the two Mist-level Mist Explorers in front of him had to say.

Maru and Carol stopped glaring at each other. Maru looked at Carol unexpectedly, then asked Li Qi:
"Carol didn't tell you?"

"After she dumped me at the door of the orphanage, she never came to see me again."

Li Qi said lightly, with a hint of complaint in his words.

The complaint in his tone was easily caught by the two. Maru glanced at Carol, who was drinking from her glass, muttering in defense:
"You know my situation, and we were going to the foggy area, so we didn't have time to take care of the children..."

Malu nodded, and then explained to Li Qi:

"Okay, let me introduce myself first. We are friends of your parents. My name is Maru and her name is Carol. As you can see, we are both Mist Explorers at the Mist level.

"As for Chris... She is your biological mother. Like us, she is a Mist Explorer of the Mist level. She went deep into the Endless Mist Sea four years ago... You should know this."

He paused and continued:

"I know that you may have some resentment towards Carol, blaming her for not taking care of you and sending you to the orphanage.

"But this can't be blamed on Carol. The situation was urgent at that time. Something happened in the fourth-layer fog zone. Carol was the only one who could come back. After settling you down, she had to go back to the fourth-layer fog zone..."

Maru only mentioned Carol and not Richie's mother Chris. This is because going to the Sea of ​​Fog is a sacred thing, and he may subconsciously think that Richie would not care about the reason why Chris and others entered the Sea of ​​Fog.

Although Li Qi really didn't care.

Carol also said in a low voice:

"I wasn't sure if I could survive at the time, so sending you to an orphanage was the last thing I could do."

"Then there will be years of exploring the foggy area. Carol really doesn't have time to take care of you. I guarantee that."

Maru added.

The more advanced the fog explorer is, the less time he or she actually has to stay in the safe zone.

They spend most of their time in the foggy area, and looking for safe spots, suitable shelters, and exploring the foggy area map are their daily tasks.

Therefore, most of the explorers actually don't have much money, and all their funds are used to purchase exploration-related equipment.

Including Li Qi's parents in this life.

Because of this, after his parents passed away... no, after going to the Endless Fog Sea, Li Qi had no choice but to be sent to an orphanage.

They even rented a house, and Li Qi didn't have the money to pay the rent.

In the end, the only thing that could be called a relic was the first-level relic treasure in Li Qi's hand.

A 'relic' in a double sense.

After listening to the two people's stories, Li Qi roughly understood what was going on.

But he did not forget that his current character was a rebellious teenager, so he acted awkwardly and said:
"What you said has nothing to do with me. Anyway, I am determined to be the head of the Tanwu family. No one can stop me."

"You stinky boy!!!"

Carol was about to get angry again when she heard this.

Malu interrupted Carol and asked Li Qi:
"You want to become a Mist Explorer?"

"No one doesn't want to be a fog explorer..."

Li Qi turned his head and whispered.

Malu stroked his chin and said, "That's true, but Chris and the others probably don't want to see you become a Mist Explorer."

"My decision has nothing to do with them!"

Li Qi looked unhappy, and said with complaints:
"They have already chosen to abandon me and enter the sea of ​​fog, so whatever decision I make has nothing to do with them!"

Looking at Li Qi's appearance, Malu suddenly understood something. He said to Li Qi meaningfully:

"I understand. You want to go to the Endless Sea of ​​Mist to find your parents, right?"

At least on the surface, this is the only reasonable reason.

Li Qi thought about it and remained silent for a long time before he said in a muffled voice:
"I want to know why they want to go to the Endless Sea of ​​Mist. Is it really that attractive?"

When this question came out, both Maru and Carol fell silent for a while.

After a while, Carol replied:
"If this is the reason why you want to become a Mist Explorer, then I can answer you."

As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Li Qi and said word by word:

"At that time, they could only go to the sea of ​​fog."
