Orc Undead Sports Warrior

“In my time, although life was always in danger, everyone cherished it and wanted to live to a ripe old age. In this era, most people don’t have to worry about survival, so how can there be people who don’t value their own lives? What’s wrong with this world?” Lu Wei couldn’t understand Spider-Man’s suicidal behavior.

As if reading Lu Wei's mind, "Spider-Man" started chatting with him again: "Young man, you may not understand what I'm doing. I was born in a small town in France. My grandfather was a postman who lived an ordinary life in that town. My father is a policeman, and he'll probably dedicate his life to that town as well. I saw my future when I was 16." As he spoke, he took the bottle of mineral water handed to him by the policeman next to him and drank more than half of it in one gulp.

After drinking the water, his spirits were even higher than before: "If I moved to another city, I would just be repeating a similar life. Going to university was the first time I left that small town. There were skyscrapers there that seemed to stretch to the horizon, and I was immediately captivated by them. I vowed to climb every skyscraper in the world, and now I've conquered 70 high-rise buildings. Nobody can stop me! God bless me!"

"Don't you take any safety precautions when you climb those buildings? How do you manage to never make a mistake?" Hearing that this guy had climbed so many high-rise buildings, Lu Wei had already mentally labeled him as a madman.

His behavior was certainly crazy, but he seemed to be in good health and mental condition, and his rock climbing ability inspired Lu Wei's respect.

"I'm not Superman. Anyone can get injured doing this kind of sport. Look here." As he spoke, "Spider-Man" held Lu Wei's arm to touch it. Lu Wei put his hand on it and felt like he was touching a steel plate. There was no elasticity at all.

"Yes, trust your instincts. When I was climbing the Debis Building, I was almost at the top when my hand slipped. Luckily, the railing caught me halfway up."

When talking about his arm, "Spider-Man's" pride and knowledge were palpable; indeed, scars are a man's badge of honor. His expression also touched Lu Wei; in his past life, the fear and respect his clansmen showed when they saw the scar on his face always brought him endless satisfaction.

Hearing this, Lu Wei felt a deep empathy and nodded at "Spider-Man".

Seeing Lu Wei's expression, "Spider-Man" got even more excited: "The Germans are so rigid and dogmatic. I was bedridden in Berlin for five months, and even after I was hospitalized, they still detained me for a week according to the law. No one can stop Alan Robert. Two years later, I finally trampled the Debis building under my feet."

"So he's the famous 'Spider-Man' of the climbing world. He's climbed 70 city center buildings, but he's fallen and injured many times. He's been to jail 50 times, and 60% of his bones are artificial. Now no insurance company dares to underwrite his health or accident insurance. He's a madman!" Some sharp-eyed people still recognized Alan Robert.

Hearing the person's introduction, Lu Wei shook his head helplessly: "Why are you doing this to yourself? Why don't you just enjoy life?"

Alan Robert maintained his signature radiant smile: "For me, every climb to the summit is the best moment of my life. Even if life were to end the next second, I would leave with a smile. Life should be lived to the fullest in its prime. My mental state is perfectly normal. Believe me, I get tested every year. I am a positive and optimistic person!"

Lu Wei shook his head with a wry smile. Although he disagreed with Alan Robert's values, he didn't really have a better reason to persuade him. He could only offer his blessings: "May you live each day to the fullest, and best of luck!"

Everyone has their own way of living, and no one can live for another.

“Dude, that’s enough for now. According to the Public Security Administration Regulations, he engaged in dangerous rock climbing without a permit and is subject to five days of detention. We have a French translator now, so we can take him in.” The speaker was the same policeman who had spoken earlier. After learning that Alain Robert was French, he quickly contacted a colleague at the city police department who spoke French to handle the subsequent work.

Alan Robert did not resist and followed the police to the car. Before leaving, he turned back to Lu Wei and said, "Sometimes you have to follow your heart, son. God bless you!"

After watching the excitement, the whole team drove to the hotel.

Alan Robert's parting words stirred deep thought in Lu Wei. Since arriving in this world, he too had been searching for the answer to this question, pondering his mission. But so far, he hadn't discovered the meaning of his existence. He wondered if there were any other companions or beings of other races in this world.

"Sigh!" Lu Wei sighed deeply. Now he could only take it one step at a time.

The National Championships are held at the Shanghai Stadium, where a leg of the annual World Athletics Golden League is also held every year.

After dropping off their luggage and resting at the hotel, Coach Yu summoned the Ningcheng track and field team to practice on the field.

The Shanghai Athletics Stadium has two venues: a main stadium for competitions and a training field for other athletes. Only athletes are allowed to enter the competition venue when the competition begins. If other team members want to train, they have to go to the training field next door. Therefore, the training time in the next few days is very precious for everyone.

Upon entering the venue, Coach Yu saw that several provincial teams nearby had already begun training. Since they were all colleagues from the sports bureau and met only a few times a year for national conferences, they naturally exchanged pleasantries.

"Old Yu, in just a few years, you've already become the head of the Ningcheng Track and Field Team. Your career is on the rise!" Several coaches saw Yu Weiming calling on coaches and athletes from across the province to give a speech, clearly indicating that he was in charge of the competition. They immediately used the tactic of flattery to kill him upon meeting him.

Coach Yu didn't mince words on the matter: "Not at all, I'm just a team leader, and the burden on my shoulders is indeed much heavier than before. There are countless track and field talents emerging across the country now, especially in economically developed regions like yours, which have attracted many talents from all over the country. Coach Mai, I heard that your team has a young man surnamed Shen who, at the age of 17, won fifth place nationwide. His future is limitless!"

"They're still far from it. Zhang Yuanteng from Beijing is only 20 years old, and his achievements are already among the best in the country. I'm afraid our Xiao Shen will have a hard time beating him in this competition. If we're talking about world-class athletes, we still have to mention Liu Xiang. There are very few people in the Chinese track and field world who can compare to him right now." Coach Mai was very modest, steer the conversation towards Liu Xiang to avoid praising his own athletes and giving other coaches something to talk about if their results weren't ideal.

"By the way, Coach Yu, you seem very confident. Could it be that some promising young players have emerged in the last two years?" The speaker was Coach Sun, Liu Feiren's coach.
