I was banned by the Revitalization event.

Why do I smell vinegar again?

"Of course what you see with your own eyes is real. Look at your sister, don't I look better than in the photos?" Qin Shi poked her cheek and said sweetly, leaning against her brother's chest.

This is without makeup...

How amazing is it that a bare face can outshine makeup, skin smoothing, and post-processing?

You're not as good-looking as you appear in photos.

Qin Luo shook his head.

In his heart, Tang Yi of the future held an unparalleled position. Her gentle temperament was impossible to imitate, and he didn't know if it was just his memory embellishing her, but he always felt that Tang Yi carried a faint, ethereal aura, graceful and otherworldly.

How can you compare them?

That's a fairy.

When compared to online images, Qin Shi pursed her lips, a little unhappy. However, the little girl immediately realized something and became slightly more alert.

Qin Luo has always been on her side, so why is he siding with the girl in the photo today...?

That can't be.

Is that the rich woman my brother found?

She's a rich loli!

Qin Shi was deeply worried, feeling that her status as the most adorable person in her brother's heart was being greatly challenged.

……

I didn't know my sister was going through a midlife crisis.

Qin Luo simply enjoyed his holiday time, spending a morning finishing his holiday homework and watching TV for a while.

It was afternoon.

He then once again had the idea of ​​refining magical artifacts.

Regarding the battle.

Spiritual artifacts have a very strong auxiliary effect; in critical moments, they can even turn the tide of battle.

Moreover, because it is infused with spiritual energy in advance, it can be used by people of any realm. Strong people often make a few spiritual artifacts for their relatives as a form of self-defense.

Having learned from the previous lesson.

Qin Luo realized that the wood was too soft and unsuitable for carving.

If jade is used, it can definitely be made lifelike; if it doesn't look good, it's definitely not due to his skill.

I happen to have some spare cash on hand.

He went to the nearest jade shop and bought a piece of uncut jade for over four thousand yuan. He didn't know much about jade or the quality of the stone, but the important thing about a magical artifact was the idea behind it, so as long as it was jade, it was fine.

They carried the large stone, weighing over ten kilograms, into the garage downstairs.

Qin Luo took out a utility knife, the blade gleaming faintly with a bluish light, and began to separate the jade flesh from the outer stone surface.

Let's just make a few random ones first, as practice.

"Spiritual Magic - Shield".

"Spiritual Arts - Umbrella".

"Spiritual Arts - Sword".

Qin Luo casually carved flowers, birds, fish, and insects, with a variety of themes. The blades, imbued with spiritual energy and a bluish glow, were incredibly sharp, capable of shattering jade flesh upon contact. He could complete a piece in just over ten seconds. Since it was just practice, Qin Luo didn't care and casually tossed these walnut-sized spiritual artifacts to the ground.

As jade carvings became more and more common.

Qin Luo felt...

I seem to be gradually becoming more skilled, and I am gradually becoming more adept at spirit carving.

You can try some more challenging carvings now...

After a moment of contemplation, he decided to stop carving such basic introductory spiritual techniques and instead try out the brilliant and ingenious ideas from later generations, which, although not powerful, were full of brilliant concepts and ideas.

"Spiritual Arts - Heavenly Movements".

"Spiritual Arts - Dustless Land".

"Spiritual Technique: Invincible Slash".

"Spiritual Art: Mercury's Cannon".

……

Soon, crudely made magical artifacts were scattered all over the ground.

When he finished carving the last piece, there was still more than half of the jade left, and it was a large, round disc-shaped piece with a pure white and flawless color. After thinking for a moment, Qin Luo carved it into a faceless mask and engraved several spiritual magic arrays on it in one go.

After putting it on your face.

Qin Luo tentatively activated his built-in spiritual technique, and a blue lightning hammer appeared in his hand.

When it's waved, a buzzing, ionizing sound fills the air.

He's quite handsome.

"Brother Qin Luo, are you doing crafts?"

Qin Luo is practicing.

Outside the garage, a little girl of about seven or eight years old was walking past the door with an ice cream cone in her hand. When she saw Qin Luo surrounded by lightning, she exclaimed in surprise.

He turned around calmly.

Qin Luo casually made the cannon hammer dissipate and took off his mask.

"Call me Senator Talis."

Chapter 19 You're a Good Person

"Who is Representative Talis?" The little girl licked her ice cream, thought for a moment, and looked confused.

"He's a bad person."

Qin Luo put away the mask and casually placed it on the table.

The little girl was quite young, wearing a high-necked black sweater, black thermal pants, and a red vest over it. Her arms and legs were thin, and she had a door access card and a house key hanging around her neck.

She held her hands up.

The tied-up pigtails swayed gently, giving off a lively vibe.

The little girl's name is Xia Meng. She is Qin Luo's neighbor who lives across the hall from his house. As he gradually adapts to his current life, Qin Luo has started to remember more things from the past.

At this time, the two families were interacting quite a bit.

Because he had a younger sister, Xia Meng often came to his house to play, and they had a good relationship. He remembered that even after the apocalypse began, they still maintained contact with this family and supported each other for a period of time. However, they eventually got separated during the war. Xia Meng's family probably died somewhere, so Qin Luo had a deep impression of her.

Old friends reunited...

Qin Luo felt nostalgic and somewhat grateful.

so good.

"Where have you been these past few days?" Qin Luo asked with a smile.

"Daddy took me to America! We flew in an airplane for a long, long time, and then we saw the beautiful streets, the pyramids, and a really, really tall iron frame!" The little girl's eyes lit up, and she stretched out her arms to describe it vividly, trying to use her thin arms to depict how big it was.

Fragrant and beautiful streets, pyramids...

Qin Luo thought for a while before realizing that she was probably referring to the Champs-Élysées and the Louvre.

This isn't the United States.

"Is the US fun?" Qin Luo didn't explain, leaning against the table and continuing the conversation.

"It wasn't fun. There were a lot of black people on the street, and there was trash all over the ground. The food was also terrible, and there were dogs pooping on the street... After Dad and the uncles finished their work, I came home with Dad."

The little girl said regretfully.

She was quite happy before she set off, but she didn't expect there to be nothing there, not even as clean as the area in front of her house.

However, children's emotions come and go quickly.

Xia Meng asked happily, "I flew in the sky for a very long time. Brother Qin Luo, have you ever ridden in a big airplane?"

"No."

Qin Luo thought for a moment. He didn't need to go out much, so he had never been on a plane.

In later generations, cultivators who had attained the Divine Realm could travel through the air, much like airplanes, and naturally, they no longer needed this kind of transportation with strict restrictions on takeoff sites.

Looking at the lively little girl, Qin Luo was in a good mood.

Meeting is fate.

He glanced back at the jade carvings on the table, picked up a coiled dragon-shaped one, and gave it to the little girl.

"Spiritual Magic - Shield".

When activated, it can generate a temporary protective shield.

Although it's a simple little spiritual spell, it's not very useful in battles between powerful individuals, but it's quite useful for protecting against traffic accidents and natural disasters. Qin Luo added a lot of spiritual power when he made it, and the shield's strength is probably enough to withstand a head-on collision with a heavy truck.

"Here, put this on your keys for good luck."

I'm afraid of snakes.

Xia Meng glanced at the jade pendant, took a small step back, and didn't take it.

Qin Luo: "..."

What is this feeling of having one's self-esteem wounded?

He rummaged around and found a jade pendant carved into the shape of a windmill chrysanthemum, which he handed to the little girl.

Xia Meng was happy.

He immediately hung the pendant on the rope and even held it up to look at it.

"Thank you, Brother Qin Luo!"
