Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

"Shh!"

"Don't shout a girl's name so loudly."

"I'll be shy."

The cashier in front of me is the same girl with burgundy curly hair I met on the high-speed train the first time.

She still had the same hairstyle, but her outfit had changed. She was no longer wearing a JK uniform, but a cashier's outfit, and she was also wearing a pair of red high heels that didn't match the nature of her job.

Chen Xi, having now seen dragons himself, quickly calmed down:

"name?"

"I didn't call anyone by a random name."

"I just called out to Chu Qingge, but you..."

"Shouldn't it be called 9?"

Yang Wei told himself that there was only one number above the girl's head.

I had my doubts at the time, wondering if the item in question was one of the top 10 forbidden items, but that has now been proven wrong.

Containment objects, identities, and innate talents all have names.

Chen Xi doesn't know what the numbers represent yet. There's another one with numbers above its head, which is the black-haired monster he encountered at what appears to be the dragon bone.

Chu Qingge's expression froze for a moment.

There was no joy or anger, no sorrow or happiness, as if time had been frozen.

"Not bad."

"They've only been awakened for a short time, and they already know about symbols?"

"And he can even slay dragons, though not real dragons, but his progress is really fast."

Symbol?

Chen Xi's expression remained unchanged, but he was startled.

So those things with numbers on their heads are symbols!

Combined with what the curly-haired fake man said earlier.

Chen Xi immediately received three pieces of information.

1: The symbol is very strong.

Chen Xi didn't know exactly how strong it was, but from the perspective of the curly-haired fake man, the symbol's strength was at least at level three!

2: The symbol has an infinite lifespan, which is somewhat similar to myself.

Chen Xi still doesn't understand how his lifespan is calculated.

According to Zhou Xiaogu, she has a day that she can never use up.

Then, from the dreamer, he learned about the forbidden item number 1, the Reverse Clock.

It can make time loop endlessly on the same day. As of now, Chen Xi has no indication that he is a forbidden object.

Now we know that people, creatures, or strange things that appear in the future with numbers above their heads are symbols.

Unfortunately, this symbol is just a number.

And I have an inexhaustible day.

So, is there a connection?

Theoretically, there shouldn't be any, since Yang Wei can't see it.

But Yang Wei couldn't see what was written on his mother's head, which meant that Yang Wei's eyes weren't omnipotent either.

3: Each symbol represents something.

Chen Xi still doesn't understand this sentence.

"I know more than just you. I've also seen a monster with long black hair whose number is 8."

Chu Qingge lowered her eyelids slightly, lost in thought.

"Really? Looks like that guy came out of the Black Tower?"

"Seeing him here, and you're still alive and well, you seem to be quite lucky."

"Either he was in a good mood at the time, or something came up and he was delayed."

"After all, he symbolizes destruction!"

destroy?

It seems that this symbol is not a concrete object, but could also be a conceptual object.

It's not hard to deduce from Chu Qingge's words that this destruction can be loosely explained by her personality.

It will continuously destroy the things around it, making a complete individual incomplete.

Chen Xi immediately realized this, but at the same time he also realized that it was definitely more than that.

If it's just simple destruction, anyone with great power can do it.

The symbol of destruction must have other meanings as well, but Chu Qingge would never tell her that.

"A very powerful symbol, so what do you symbolize?"

Chen Xi continued to probe.

Chu Qingge's appearance at such a terrible time is because Chen Xi's Eternal Sleep Spear is currently in a cooldown state.

There are still more than 23 hours of cooling time left, which is far from enough to last.

For his own safety, Chen Xi had to prepare for the worst.

The air suddenly became quiet.

Even their breathing seemed to have stopped.

"hehe."

Chu Qingge suddenly smiled, a beautiful smile, but Chen Xi had no interest in appreciating it.

"I was prejudiced."

"It seems you have no idea what the symbol or this number represents."

"You just heard some things about us from someone, that's all."

Chen Xi's expression changed, revealing a serious look that wasn't exactly friendly:

"So...why did you contact me?"

"Don't tell me this was a chance encounter?"

Since Chu Qingge mentioned slaying the dragon, it means she should have come over immediately.

"It wasn't a coincidence, there was an element of luck involved, but not much."

Chu Qingge replied casually, then her eyes narrowed:

"As for why I contacted you..."

"It's because your scent is stronger now! I'm absolutely certain now, that's what I've been looking for!"

really!

This answer was exactly what Chen Xi had expected.

Previously on the high-speed train, the other party had a keen sense of smell, like a dog, and detected the scent of the Black Tower ball, although they couldn't see it at the time.

Can we see it now?

Did the other party make any improvements during this period?

Do not!

Chen Xi's thoughts raced, and he immediately thought of what Chu Qingge had just said: "It's even more intense!"

The smell is even stronger now!

So it's not that the opponent got an upgrade, but that the Black Tower ball got an upgrade!

Or rather...

I improved myself!

Compared to before, I have advanced from Tier I to Tier II, which is consistent with the previous speculation that the Black Tower Ball fused with part of the Primal Seed's abilities.

In addition, the rule that exclusive forbidden items and players improve together is what makes the Black Tower Orb visible to a select few!?

Chen Xi speculated.

"Bang!"

A loud crash suddenly rang out.

Chen Xi suddenly retreated, taking an extremely long step backward, which directly smashed the facilities at the entrance of the supermarket.

Then he leaped and jumped onto the back of a bird.

This bird is a figurine, a Pidgey.

Chen Xi lay on the back of the Pidgey bird, and the altitude increased rapidly.

100 meters...

500 meters...

800 meters...

Only then did Chu Qingge slowly walk out of the supermarket.

She wore a calm and sweet smile, but to Chen Xi at that moment, it looked somewhat chilling.

"As long as the other side doesn't have the ability to fly, they shouldn't be able to do anything to me."

Chen Xi murmured to himself.

After some internal struggle, Chen Xi tacitly acknowledged that without the Eternal Sleep Gun, he was no match for Chu Qingge.

Therefore, the decision to retreat was made.

"Um?"

Chu Qingge on the ground pressed down with her legs and swung her arms, making a standing long jump motion.

"No way..."

A bad feeling suddenly welled up in Chen Xi's heart.

next second.

Whoosh!

Chu Qingge exerted her strength suddenly, and with a loud "bang," the surrounding floor cracked rapidly like a spider web.

She shot towards Chen Xi like an arrow released from a bow!

What!

Chen Xi was startled, considering the current altitude, the distance he had traveled, and the time taken.

Using the Pythagorean theorem and mental arithmetic, it can be deduced that Chu Qingge would need to jump approximately 1208 meters in a standing long jump to reach him.

This level of standing long jump is extraordinary, even in the extraordinary world!

But Chen Xi just happened to run into him!

In just two and a half seconds, Chu Qingge appeared one meter in front of Chen Xi.

Just as Chen Xi urgently ordered Pidgey to turn around, Chu Qingge delivered a powerful overhead kick, sending Chen Xi crashing to the ground.

During the descent, the terrifying wind pressure made Chen Xi's facial expressions somewhat unreadable.

"Bang!"

Chen Xi slammed hard onto the ground, sending dust billowing everywhere.

With a "whoosh," he coughed up a mouthful of blood, but thankfully he didn't die.

With triple physical strength, the boost from two identity cards, and the level 80 of Tier II, the combined physical attributes of these things are as fragile as paper.

Vulnerable!

"Smack."

Almost simultaneously, the sound of Chu Qingge's footsteps landing came from ahead.

"Don't worry, I symbolize peace, so I won't kill anyone."

After saying this, Chu Qingge sniffed the air and, as if she had X-ray vision, took the Black Tower Ball from Chen Xi, who had lost the ability to resist.

"tennis?"

"Interesting. So this is your disguise, Black Tower?"

Chen Xi's heart trembled upon seeing this. This was something he had witnessed firsthand; he was the first person besides himself to be able to see the black tower sphere.

This was also one of Chen Xi's attack methods, but unfortunately, he was instantly killed before the charge was fully charged.

After learning that he wouldn't be killed, Chen Xi used all his remaining strength to ask:

"What...is your connection to this thing?"

Chen Xi didn't ask the other party what the thing was for, because he knew he probably wouldn't get an answer that way.

But to his surprise, this question yielded an answer that was even more unexpected for Chen Xi.

To his surprise, if the other party hadn't spoken, he would never have imagined the answer for the rest of his life:

"What does it matter?"

Didn't I tell you that when we first met?

"I'm a weightlifter!"

"And what I held up..."

"It's the Black Tower!"
