Chapter 40 Eating and Drinking
Chapter 40 Eating and Drinking
Dear reader, disaster has struck! A baby-faced man surnamed Zhang has broken into my house! Due to some special reasons, the history of Chapter 32 has undergone a dramatic change (actually, it's just that the author's ability is insufficient, so the previous content has been modified to connect with the later content).
The new book should be arriving tomorrow, I'm looking forward to reading it!
"Oh, do I have to eat all sorts of weird ingredients like Zheng Zha?"
Zhan Lan, who was eating rice, put down her chopsticks, pointed to her face, and asked curiously.
Although she didn't know exactly what had happened, she could sense that after Zheng Zha was fed those strange things by Liu Qianhuang, his aura changed and his strength became stronger.
However, this feeling was really strange to her. Fantasy novels don't write things like this. You should first collect all kinds of rare and precious treasures, and then go through a complicated alchemy process to finally refine them into a top-grade pill that can improve your realm. After consuming it, you can improve your strength. Zhan Lan felt that she couldn't accept this.
You're saying you can just put rare and precious herbs in your mouth and instantly increase your strength? What's the difference between that and eating instant noodles?
Alas, who would have thought that Zheng Zha was actually a human alchemy furnace?
"Come on, Zheng Zha, set an example for him."
Liu Qianhuang said to Zheng Zha.
"Okay, boss."
Zheng Zha readily agreed. He then began to perform his moves purely on instinct. Although there was no discernible pattern to his movements, making him resemble a gorilla that had escaped from a zoo, each strike produced a distinct sound.
As the saying goes, a sound is priceless. In reality, if you want to make a sound with your bare hands, you not only need pure physical strength, but also special striking techniques.
But does Zheng Zha have any special striking techniques? The answer is no. Right now, he's just using his body and brute force to make a sound.
(The child doesn't know martial arts, but he's very strong.)
"Zheng Zha, use your crimson flames to break his legs!"
With a thought, Liu Qianhuang commanded a Tyrannosaurus Rex to be generated in the room.
"Okay."
Zheng Zha actually wrapped himself in blazing red flames, turning himself into a human torch, and then crashed straight into the Tyrannosaurus Rex's thigh.
The moment the Tyrannosaurus Rex's thigh made contact with Zheng Zha, who was charging towards it, it melted like butter.
It can truly be said that when Pangu was enraged, the heavens and earth trembled, and he beheaded all the tyrannical dragons and severed the heads of the snakes.
(Yamata no Orochi: Am I going to be decapitated too?)
Liu Qianhuang: That's right.
(“What are you doing?” No, wrong one, let’s do it again.)
(A wailing sound)
With a mournful cry, the Tyrannosaurus Rex, its leg broken, lost its balance and fell painfully to the ground. As soon as it landed, a facehugger seized the opportunity, jumped onto its head, and began to parasitize it.
"Is this the Crimson Flame?"
Zheng Zha looked at the flames on his body in surprise and murmured.
Tyrannosaurus Rex? He's using it as a speed bump?
He used to feel that his life was missing a few pieces, but now it seems that with the exchange of Red Flame, one piece of the puzzle has been completed.
"Sigh, I wish the little girl was here too."
Thinking about the other missing pieces of his life, Zheng Zha couldn't help but sigh. He didn't know how many other pieces of his life he hadn't yet collected, but compared to the biggest piece—the loli—they were insignificant.
"Me too, me too, boss! I want to break the Tyrannosaurus Rex's leg with one punch. I want to eat the stuff you took out of the fridge too."
Li Xiaoyi said excitedly.
"Me too. After I'm in this body, I want to eat whatever you chose, big brother."
Luo Gandao followed closely behind.
"Senior Qianhuang, when is it my turn? I feel like I'm almost at the level of the Six Treasures Immortal Thief."
Zhao Yingkong said.
"One at a time."
Looking at the harmonious and loving team members of Zhongzhou, Liu Qianhuang responded.
"Zhang Jie, go upstairs and exchange for your Zanpakuto. Zhan Lan, bring out all the items I asked you to exchange before."
He began to give instructions.
Contrary to what many people imagine, not everyone in the Central Continent Team is a dragon. In the cycle of reincarnation, each member can display their great power.
On the contrary, the Central Continent Team's combat power planning actually has major problems, so much so that apart from Zheng Zha, who can be considered a stable combat force, the rest can only be described as having no human left.
Wait, that's not quite right. If Zheng Zha could come up with a way to enhance his internal energy with vampire power, he might be considered human, but it's a bit unlikely that Zheng Zha is human.
You start by getting a B-level side quest to improve your rating, and then you use it to exchange for conflicting enhancements like vampires and internal energy. Aren't you just deliberately causing trouble?
Zheng Zha is at least half to blame for the Zhongzhou team sneaking into the elimination zone.
(As for the other pot, Zhang Jie: Why are you all looking at me?)
To be fair, the concept of a vampire with internal energy was quite trendy and cool during the time Infinite Terror was being serialized. Many urban novels from the same period featured protagonists with this ability.
The combination of East and West, the clash of positive and negative, the interplay of Yin and Yang—it sounds incredibly cool. Unfortunately, Zheng Zha is an amateur and completely incapable of coordinating the two energies; in the early stages, he only allows them to wear each other down.
I feel he's not as good as Muhammad Yoref from the Indianapolis team; at least he can self-destruct.
Zhang Jie, needless to say, is a product of the God's bug, a deformed child who is both captain and guide. He occupies the captain's position without doing any work, yet he improves the Central Continent Team's evaluation with his high combat power. He is a top-level war criminal. Let alone positive combat power, even a negative two would be considered a beautification.
Zhan Lan, although our silly girl is indeed very talented, once her love brain is activated, unlocking is like playing a game for her. She didn't suffer much to get into No. 4 Middle School, and even mastered a divine skill that can instantly kill the weakest fighters in No. 4 Middle School. But normally she can only use it as a QQ. In real battles, she can even be killed by a small pebble on the roadside.
(Slaying the God Stone: Crushing the Fourth Middle School, the record is verifiable.)
Therefore, she cannot be classified as combatant; she can only be considered a microphone and earpiece combo plus version.
While she is indeed indispensable, you can't expect her to deal damage at all. Without strengthening her mental abilities in the early game, she's basically just AFK farming experience.
Xiao Honglu, despite being a wise man, is good for nothing but betraying his teammates. Even at the crucial moment of the final battle, he still thinks about killing everyone and going solo.
But at least he had some brains. He was able to discover the Wind Elf Archer bloodline as a wheelchair enhancement and select a decent item like the Air Cannon. Unfortunately, he was later defeated by the Ape King Dao Shi. After exchanging for the Magic Network system, he completely became a resource black hole and a pure burden.
Li Xiaoyi was just a background character, someone who gained experience by following Zheng Zha. If he hadn't been killed by the alien at the beginning, he could have been classified as an NPC. If he had been parasitized by the enemy later, he would have been classified as a war criminal.
Chu Xuan, despite still relying solely on decoy tactics and lacking any strategic acumen, failed to deliver much effective damage to the Central Continent Team's T2-level combat power...
However, given that he can read scripts, create various advanced technologies, and that wise men shouldn't actually be responsible for combat, he is classified as an essential functional unit, just like QQ Zhan Lan.
