Legendary Person: I brought my skills back to reality!
Chapter 45 Brother, just how many talents do you have?
After the battle, Xu Hao felt completely exhausted and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily. Just then, a system notification sounded in his ear, which snapped him out of his daze.
"Ding! Detected that the player has defeated the monster for the first time."
Xu Hao was overjoyed. Could killing the supernatural in real life also bring system rewards?!
That's pretty good!
"You've now received your reward: a 10-draw lottery!" The system notification sounded again.
Ten consecutive draws! Xu Hao's breathing quickened. The last time he heard those three words was when he created his character, as a newbie gift from the system. He never expected that killing a monster would bring such a good thing!
"Should we draw now?"
Without even thinking, Xu Hao blurted out, "Draw!"
But he stopped himself from saying it.
No, you can't smoke now!
Shi Shaowei is right next to me. If he sees me conjure something out of thin air, how am I supposed to explain it? I haven't even come up with an explanation for this skeleton thing yet!
Sigh, the troubles of being multi-talented.
Thinking of this, Xu Hao took a deep breath and silently said in his heart, "No, I won't smoke yet."
The system seemed to have received his instruction and stopped urging him.
Xu Hao was secretly delighted and decided to study the ten-pull draw carefully when he got back to his residence.
Shi Shaowei wiped the liquid mixed with sweat and dust from his forehead, then took out his walkie-talkie, pressed the call button, and said in a deep voice: "The battle is over. The logistics team comes in to clean up the mess. Also, send a medical team over."
After saying that, he put away the walkie-talkie and turned to look at Xu Hao. Before he could speak, he heard a series of hurried footsteps behind him.
Lin Ya stumbled out from behind the iron gate, her face pale and tears streaming down her face. When she saw Xu Hao sitting on the ground, she rushed over without thinking, hugged him tightly, buried her head in his shoulder, and began to sob softly.
Xu Hao could feel Lin Ya's trembling body and the warm tears seeping through her clothes. He gently patted Lin Ya's back and softly comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, it's all over..."
Shi Shaowei watched Lin Ya throw herself into Xu Hao's arms and couldn't help but purse his lips. His brows furrowed, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the two of them, his expression complex. He had so many questions he wanted to ask Xu Hao.
How did you know Lin Ya would be in danger? Could you even predict it? And what about that skeleton that appeared out of nowhere and is now standing there so gracefully?
He recalled the scene of the previous battle. That skeleton was no ordinary fighter, almost as powerful as a superhuman. You call this thing your summoned creature?
If you could summon a bunch of these things, we wouldn't even need to fight anymore. We could just consider a counterattack into the supernatural world and see if there are any resources there? Maybe it's suitable for farming? How about that?
Shi Shaowei took a deep breath, suppressing his doubts. He knew now wasn't the time to ask; many things had to be addressed later.
"It's alright, it's alright..." Xu Hao gently patted Lin Ya's back, softly comforting her. He could feel Lin Ya's trembling body and the warm tears seeping through her clothes. His heart ached for her, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only repeat those words over and over again.
Lin Ya clung tightly to Xu Hao, as if a drowning person had grasped at the last straw. She buried her head in his shoulder, sobbing uncontrollably, her tears soaking Xu Hao's clothes and his heart.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here..." Xu Hao gently stroked Lin Ya's hair, feeling her breathing gradually become steady, and a strong desire to protect her welled up in his heart. He lowered his head and whispered in Lin Ya's ear, "I promise you, I will never let you get hurt again."
Lin Ya's body trembled slightly. She raised her head, her eyes blurry with tears, and asked Xu Hao in a hoarse voice, "Really?"
"Really." Xu Hao nodded firmly. "I promise."
"But... that monster just now..." Lin Ya hesitated, knowing that Xu Hao must be hiding something from her, and a sense of unease rose in her heart.
“I know, I know,” Xu Hao interrupted Lin Ya. “I was wrong before. I kept many things from you, but please believe me. Everything I did was to protect you.”
He paused, then continued, "I'll tell you everything after this is over, okay?"
Looking into Xu Hao's sincere eyes, Lin Ya's unease gradually dissipated. She nodded gently and buried her head in Xu Hao's arms again.
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps approached, and the staff of the Bureau of Mystery Management finally arrived at the scene. Shi Shaowei directed the staff to begin cleaning up the scene and arranged for a medical team to examine Lin Ya.
Xu Hao gently helped Lin Ya up from his arms and said to the medical staff who came over, "Thank you for your help. Please take her to the hospital for a thorough check-up."
"Don't worry, we'll take good care of her." The medical staff pushed the stretcher over and carefully helped Lin Ya onto it.
Xu Hao watched as Lin Ya was put into the ambulance. Shi Shaowei came over and patted Xu Hao on the shoulder.
"You came all this way in the middle of the night to save your girlfriend. Come on, how about I buy you a drink?"
Along the banks of the Jialu River, the night market was brightly lit and bustling with activity, the air filled with the aroma of food and a faint smell of the river. Shi Shaowei and Xu Hao found a table in a corner, ordered some grilled skewers and beer, and began to chat idly.
"Brother, you've really opened my eyes again today!" Shi Shaowei picked up a skewer of grilled meat, took a big bite, and said indistinctly.
Xu Hao smiled, picked up his wine glass, and clinked it against Shi Shaowei's.
Seeing that Xu Hao wasn't responding to him, Shi Shaowei pursed his lips and downed another bottle of beer.
In the end, I couldn't hold back and laid it all out.
"Speaking of which, how many things are you hiding from me? It's one thing to be skilled in martial arts, but you can also poison, refine pills, draw talismans, and summon skeletons to fight. The most outrageous thing is that you can foresee danger and save Lin Ya's life. Tell me honestly, did you fall off a cliff and meet an old man with a white beard? Or are you a closed-door disciple of some immortal cultivation sect, descended to the mortal world to experience life?"
Shi Shaowei finished speaking in one breath, staring at Xu Hao, hoping to glean some clues from his face.
"Just tell me the truth! How many other talents do you have? Tell me, and you'll blow my mind!"
Xu Hao was a little confused by Shi Shaowei's series of questions. He put down the skewers in his hand and gave a helpless bitter smile.
I haven't even finished coding yet!
"If I told you, they all appeared in my mind automatically after I awakened my superpowers, would you believe me?"
"If you insist on saying that, I have no choice but to believe it!"
Forget it, let's not make it up anymore. Let's just blame it all on superpowers. Superpowers, huh? What logic can you draw from them?
"By the way, you're not like those novels where you have some kind of system, and after completing a task, you get all sorts of rewards with a 'ding' sound? And then you become invincible and dominate the world?"
"Cough cough cough..." Xu Hao was holding a glass, slowly drinking the cold beer in his glass, listening to Shi Shaowei's words, thinking about how to smooth things over, when he suddenly heard the word "system". He choked on a mouthful of beer and coughed violently.
