"How about that? Pretty funny, right?" Xue Wan said happily.
"Boring," Xue Jing said, pouting.
He was initially quite amused, but seeing a bunch of people shipping him and Suzuka Otogi as a male-male couple made Xue Jing feel a bit uncomfortable, so he lowered his head.
Fortunately, Lu Sang's true form is female, which made him less resistant; otherwise, he would probably be so irritated that he would have nightmares tonight.
Xue Wan knew her younger brother very well and understood what was bothering him. She patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.
"You're a big star now, you need to think more diversely."
Xue Jing glanced at her and suddenly smiled:
"Then I'll bring him home in a while and tell my parents that you persuaded him to?"
"Huh?" Xue Wan's eyes widened.
She immediately reached out and grabbed Xue Jing's arm, saying pitifully, "Brother Jing, Master Jing, I was just joking."
Xue Jing stroked his chin: "I was just joking with my parents... I'll explain in a few days."
"In a few days, my skin will have been completely peeled off and dried by my mom!"
……
Amidst the noise and commotion, the night passed.
The next morning, Xue Jing got up early, made breakfast, practiced Huang Po Gong for a while, and at eight o'clock sharp, picked up his phone, opened his contacts, found Pei Xiao'en, the father of the Pei brothers, and dialed him.
The call was answered quickly, not long after.
A slightly deep, tense voice came through the receiver: "Hello, is this Xiao Jing?"
Bae Hyo-eun seemed to have been woken up; her voice was hoarse, as if she had just woken up.
Xue Jing said in a calm tone, "Hey, Uncle Pei."
You know why I called you, right?
Pei Xiaoen said in a somewhat ingratiating tone, "I understand, I understand. Under Chief Chu's supervision, our government is doing everything in its power to find the divine relic for you..."
Xue Jing asked curiously, "Oh? Chief Chu?"
Pei Xiaoen's voice became increasingly humble: "Yes, thanks to you, Councilor Chu Minyi made great contributions in resolving the Tianxiu Insect Mother incident and was successfully elected as the new Chief Councilor of Qingcheng in the 'Grand Council' held half a month ago."
"He's always wanted to throw a banquet to thank you... Are you free lately?"
Xue Jing smiled and said, "There's no need for a banquet. If you really want to thank me, just settle the debt of the divine relics you owe me as soon as possible."
Pei Xiaoen immediately assured him, "Don't worry, Chief Chu is working hard on this matter. He has already borrowed four items through various channels and will send them to you soon."
Xue Jing hummed in agreement, indicating that he was fairly satisfied with the efficiency of the Qingcheng government.
They acquired four of the ten divine relics within the agreed three-month period, so they should be able to keep their promise.
After finishing the business, he casually asked, "How's Youguang doing lately? Is he alright?"
Pei Youguang, the school bully who had tried to bully him, surrendered completely after being taught a lesson by Xue Jing. He could be considered Xue Jing's friend, so now that he was facing Pei Youguang's father, he had to show some concern.
On the other end of the phone, Pei Xiaoen was immediately excited to hear Xue Jing expressing concern for her son.
“Very good, Youguang is excellent. He has made some progress recently. I had him become a disciple of your Hidden Dragon Dojo, and he has made rapid progress under the tutelage of that Dragon King. He truly deserves to be called a great master who can teach such a talented disciple of yours. He is indeed extraordinary. It's just that I, as his father, have been too busy with work and have neglected him in the past…”
"Guang always talks about you, Xiao Jing. When do you have time to come and visit him?"
Xue Jing found it somewhat amusing to hear him address him so politely, trying to appear both respectful and distant, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He simply said, "I will when I have time," and then hung up the phone.
……
Chapter 292 GOD2154 Attribute Table, Xue Jing's Five Dimensional Attributes, Twin Lv10
Xue Jing didn't have to wait long. Just over half an hour after making the call, Pei Xiaoen had someone deliver the four divine relics that the Qingcheng government had collected to Xue Jing's home.
After seeing off the respectful official who brought the gifts, Xue Jing sat down on the sofa in the living room with a box in his hand.
He reached out and unlocked the box, inside which were four items placed on soft padding.
Each is a ring.
A watch.
A white hair, about five centimeters long.
A transparent glass bottle containing a quietly burning red flame.
Xue Jing curiously examined these things for a few moments, and quickly identified their true forms based on the information he had seen about divine relics before.
He first reached out and picked up the brass-colored ring with a dazzling ruby at the top.
[Divine matter detected; absorbing divinity...]
"【GOD-1654·Invincible Frame Ring】..."
He whispered the ring's serial number and name.
Its effect is simple: when the wearer performs a 'rolling' motion, they will have a moment of invincibility.
During that time, no external attack could interfere with or touch the wearer, making them truly invincible.
As for how long this 'moment' lasts... according to experimental tests, the invincibility time varies depending on the wearer, and is approximately between one-twenty-fourth and one-sixtieth of a second.
Xue Jing put it on the ring finger of his left hand. His already slender and beautiful hand had an inexplicable bewitching feel when set off by the ruby ring.
"The ring's ability is not very useful to me... The momentary invincibility of the roll dodge card is not difficult for me, but being able to roll means that it is an attack that I can react to. So I can just hide inside the non-existent beast or 'transform into shadow'."
Xue Jing already possesses several invincible abilities that are not 'passive', so adding another invincible frame ring... while not entirely useless, would certainly be insignificant.
Moreover, this thing has some side effects; wearing it greatly increases the stamina consumed by the 'rolling' action.
Xue Jing's gaze fell on the watch.
This is a black watch that looks simple and unremarkable, but its dial does not display the time; instead, it displays a pentagonal radar chart.
“【GOD-2154 Attribute Table】…”
This thing is much more useful.
Xue Jing put the watch on his right wrist and then pressed a button on the left side of the watch face.
The watch beeped, the screen lit up, and the pentagonal radar graph began to fluctuate continuously, eventually revealing a word at each of the five corners.
They are: Body, Intention, Calamity, Saint, and Power.
The cat, who was lying lazily on the sofa next to him, stood up, stretched, stuck out its butt, and walked gracefully to Xue Jing. It placed its two front paws on his thigh and peered at the black watch on his wrist.
"what is this?"
She asked curiously.
"A divine relic, GOD-2154 - Attribute Table," Xue Jing explained, stroking her fluffy cat head.
"It can reflect the wearer's five attributes on the dial... just like the attribute panel of a game character."
"The five attributes will be displayed in the language most familiar to the wearer."
Xue Jing tapped the watch face with his finger, recalling the description of the attribute table in the Divine Relics Database.
"【Body】 refers to the comprehensive value of the physical body, including explosive power, stamina, strength, flexibility, etc. All factors related to the physical body are included in it, and a specific value is obtained by combining them through a complex formula."
"【意】 is a comprehensive value of mental and conscious abilities such as the intensity of consciousness, willpower, and mental strength."
"The average person's physical and mental strength values are around 1 to 5 according to experimental data."
The cat glanced at the numbers displayed on the watch face.
Body: 962
Italian: 988
She raised an eyebrow and said, "That's not right. Most people have 5, but you have less than a thousand?"
Based on her understanding of Xue Jing's combat abilities, she wouldn't be surprised if his superhuman performance, when expressed numerically, was ten thousand times that of an ordinary person.
If it's close to a thousand, that's only two or three hundred times that of an average person... which doesn't match his performance.
Xue Jing laughed and said, "This is just a simple calculation of the overall physical value. Various martial arts skills and the ability to use the body are not included. In terms of physical value alone, this is indeed my current value."
The cat nodded and said, "I see... then what are the last three?"
Her gaze fell on the three characters: 【劫、圣、势】, each more difficult to understand than the last.
Xue Jing stroked his chin: "Hmm... these three are more complicated."
He picked up his phone, accessed the Divine Relics Database website, retrieved the Class B Divine Relic Containment Certificate from the non-existent beast, and logged into the website with a dynamic password.
I did a search and opened the information about GOD-2154.
As he looked, he said:
"【劫】 means calamity, specifically referring to 'the probability of encountering something'."
The cat tilted its head: "You mean 'luck'?"
Xue Jing shook his head and said, "No, there is no specific standard for 'luck'. Whether the things you encounter are good or bad depends on your subjective opinion. For example, some people may feel that having an ambiguous relationship with a woman is good luck, while others may feel that it is terrible and troublesome. It is hard to define good luck or bad luck."
"【劫】simply reflects the probability of a person encountering various events."
The cat's [crisis] index when looking at Xue Jing: 10026
Five figures... The cat's expression was strangely anthropomorphic, as if it wanted to laugh:
So, is your quantity a lot or a little?
Xue Jing's lips twitched, and he said helplessly, "The value of [Calamity] varies greatly from person to person. There is no average value range for a normal person... However, according to experimental records, even those who frequently face life and death will generally not have a [Calamity] index exceeding two thousand."
The cat smiled and said, "So, the matter of you having a naturally troublesome physique is finally settled?"
Xue Jing did not answer, but instead casually changed the subject:
"Then there's the [Holy] attribute... It's a bit strange. If a native English speaker wears an attribute chart, [Holy] will be displayed as [Holy], which roughly means 'divinity'."
"Although the database is vague and much of the content is covered in black bars, it is still understandable. It probably refers to the 'levels and positions of life'."
Xue Jing swiped a few times on his phone screen and said, "According to experimental data, the average [Saint] index of ordinary people is between 10 and 30, while that of ordinary animals is basically below 10, and that of insects is mostly 1."
