Qu Ting Chan's courses are well planned, and unlike his somewhat rigid appearance, he is fun-loving, easy-going, and very relaxed. Even when Lu Ning tried to start five-sense isolation training, it wasn't that difficult under his guidance.
During the break, Lu Ning also asked Qu Tingchan if they didn't need to improve themselves?
"First of all... the teaching will not delay my own training plan. Secondly, our current strength will not encounter much trouble at the third level. We have been pushed back." Qu Tingchan mentioned that this attitude was also very Youran didn't seem to think it was a big deal, "And our stay is much longer than yours, about four or five months."
"So long?"
"The organization will pay for it." Qu Tingchan gave him a "you know" look.
"But why should we suppress your progress?"
"Grinding the mind." Qu Tingchan smiled, "It sounds mysterious, doesn't it? But since the above thinks so, it must make sense. Our speed is too fast, and we may still feel a lot of energy, so we need to Grind off some of it, otherwise it will be difficult to survive the fourth level."
Lu Ning looked left and right, not realizing that Qu Tingchan was losing his temper.
"Don't worry, you don't have to be like us. When it's time to advance, you will be successful." Qu Tingchan seemed to know what Lu Ning was thinking, "This is the difference, not good or bad."
"I understand. By the way, Du Xieyi..."
"She went to the scene, so I've been filling in all day for the past few days. Otherwise, she would have taught you part of the class."
"That's it..."
Perhaps for psychological reasons, Lu Ning felt that Qu Tingchan was not worried about Du Xieyi's safety at all. This kind of recognition of the other party's strength was really enviable.
However, her own worries did not last long. At dusk when Zhao Xihua and Fujii Yukine came to visit, the two of them were hugged from behind.
"Long time no see! You two are here too!"
"What do you mean, am I strong?" Zhao Xihua pushed the person behind him to the front with his backhand. Ning Yeyi's face was filled with a smile, which was unchanged from his memory. At this moment, Lu Ning felt that she finally felt in her heart. Feeling at ease.
"Congratulations." Fujii Yukine smiled gently, "I can feel that you have become stronger again."
"I'll just assume you're being polite!" Ning Yeyi rushed into the house and pulled off her coat, "Great harvest! Let's go eat some good food together! I'm treating you today!"
Everything seems to be going well - no, after reaching the third level, many things are going well.
Lu Ning smiled and picked up the phone: "How about I call a few more people?"
"How many...?" Ning Yeyi's body paused for a moment, "Wait! If there are more than ten people, then everyone has to pay the bill separately! I'm not that rich yet!"
"I'm rich." Zhao Xihua raised his head slightly, "I've just been promoted and I have a lot of points. Lu Ning, call all your friends over!"
"Don't we wait until Shu Xingruo gets promoted?" Fujii Xueyin asked.
"Of course we will get together again then. How can two get-togethers be combined into one?"
No one tried to refute Zhao Xihua's logic.
And inexplicably, this gathering turned into a large dinner.
The reason was that Zhao Xihua called a few teammates over, and Lu Ning also invited Cheng Yurun and a few others, and Ning Yeyi also asked a few friends she met in the scene - and then there was a chain reaction.
Finally, Lu Ning sat in the banquet hall specially set up in the distribution center, looking at the eight nearly fifty-meter long tables filled with a variety of food. The fire of light was lit in the chandelier on the top of the banquet hall, shining all around like daylight. Hundreds of people dressed in different ways, who were more or less related to everyone here, were talking to each other. For a moment, they didn't realize how things could have turned out like this.
At this time, Zhao Xihua, who had put on an evening dress, walked out of the dressing room behind the screen.
"Have you planned this for a long time?" Lu Ning glanced sideways at Zhao Xihua.
"Hehe, you always have to seize opportunities. Besides, with your level, the friends you make must be high-level tourists. But then again, this is socializing! Lu Ning, it's not that difficult."
Zhao Xihua pulled Lu Ning up from the stool and raised his hand to say hello to the two people closest to him. These are a pair of handsome twins who met Fujii Yukine when they were advancing. The tacit understanding between the two is almost like the same person using two bodies. There is no doubt that Zhao Xihua has remembered the names of everyone here.
"Hayato, Takagi, how do you feel?"
"We originally thought it was just a small gathering, but that's fine. Everyone in this banquet hall is worth getting to know. Thank you for inviting us over." The man on the left raised his glass, "Ms. Zhao, on the second level We couldn’t make friends in the same distribution center, but we can finally get to know each other truly when we come to the third level.”
"We are all newcomers, so we should take care of each other. Besides, your strength is obvious to all." Zhao Xihua also picked up a wine glass and poured it for himself, drinking half the glass of wine in one gulp. "What are your plans now?"
"First get a firm foothold in the third level." The man on the right smiled slightly, "We haven't experienced the first scene yet, and we don't know how difficult the third level scene is. You have to adapt to the new environment when you are new."
Lu Ning saw the golden thread coat of arms on the skirts of the two people's dresses. It was a giant tree holding nine suns, so there was no doubt that these two people were members of the "East China Sea Fuso", the first organization of the third level of the East. .
"This... miss? Can I get to know you?" The two of them had finished their greetings, and of course they would not lose their courtesy towards Lu Ning.
"My name is Lu Ning, I'm sorry... I can't tell you two apart." Lu Ning also started to try to communicate.
"Haha, sometimes even close friends can't tell the difference." The one on the left laughed and pointed to the brother next to him, "He has darker skin and is younger. His name is Ying Yi."
"A few minutes later." Takagi immediately added, "Hayato's eyebrows are a little raised. This is the most obvious difference between the two of us."
Lu Ning looked carefully and really remembered this difference.
"Then I'll take Lu Ning to continue shopping and get to know a few more people. If you have anything to say, you can say hello to me or Fujii. Everyone will try to help if they can!" Seeing that the situation was almost over, Zhao Xihua immediately took Lu Ning's hand.
"Of course, thank you." Hayato and Takagi also gave way to the right time.
Zhao Xihua continued to lead Lu Ning forward. And the more she continued to get to know more people, the more Lu Ning felt how powerful Zhao Xihua's talent was. There were more than a hundred people, and even Lu Ning's memory could only remember the characteristics of many people. As for the names, which she said once when they were introduced at the door, she almost forgot them, but Zhao Xihua could call everyone accurately. Even strangers can accurately express their preferences in a few words, creating a lively conversation, and then leave quickly and politely.
Halfway through the circle, Lu Ning felt tired. The people she had met before were now remembered much more deeply. After all, every time he chatted, Zhao Xihua would tell the other person's biggest characteristics intentionally or unintentionally. Once he had characteristics, Lu Ning's The memory ability is also good.
"Tired?" Zhao Xihua looked at Lu Ning amusedly.
"are not you tired?"
"Give me a hundred people and I can chat with them until dawn." Zhao Xihua shrugged, "This is an indispensable part of your future. It never hurts to know more people. My experience tells me so."
"But you didn't talk much."
"Friendships always progress from the shallower to the deeper. If it were a peaceful reception, we could chat a lot and use useless social rhetoric, but this is a distribution center after all. Everyone seems to be relaxed, but in fact they still care. It’s a matter of survival.”
"so?"
"So you have to master the level of each interaction. Getting to know someone is a process. If you show too much enthusiasm at one time, it will be too much. The same is true for a group of people. First leave a good impression, and then occasionally meet to chat about the experience. If you meet When encountering difficulties, we help each other, and this is how the communication circle in the distribution center is established. In a sense, it is much simpler than real communication."
"I don't think it's easy." Lu Ning felt tired.
"Then take it as a challenge. Anyway, we have plenty of time to practice such things. Being too withdrawn is not a good thing."
"You are the expert, you have the final say."
"This is right!"
There is no need to introduce how many people Lu Ning met this time. In short, she was given a good training by Zhao Xihua. By the time they were about to leave, Lu Ning was already able to talk about common topics with many new friends. This situation continued. She felt a little surprised.
Two days later, Lu Ning received another news that another batch of members who had completed the promotion test was about to arrive.
According to time estimates, this is probably the end of Shu Xingruo's promotion. Lu Ning went straight to the airport after training and met up with Ning Yeyi and others who had been waiting there for the arrival of the ship.
When the lights in the distribution center dimmed slightly, simulating the scene of dusk, a beam of light appeared in the distant universe.
"That's it." Fujii Yukine pointed to the position of the light. "The pick-up ship uses warp point technology to buffer the landing. The energy released in the main space and time will be released as pure light energy. From a distance, it looks like bunches of light. .”
"You know a lot." Ning Yeyi said.
"It's all knowledge of little use." Fujii Yukine said humbly.
The warp point buffer can quickly span long distances. Soon, in the last burst of light, the spacecraft appeared over the airport. At this time, the speed had almost stabilized, and the huge hull began to slowly sink in a landing zone. , this was also Lu Ning’s first time watching the landing of an airport ship.
"It's truly spectacular."
"Indeed, if I can encounter the galaxy scene, I will definitely try to drive such a ship." Ning Yeyi nodded and said.
"That requires commanding an army. This kind of starship cannot be operated by one person." Zhao Xihua said with a smile.
A large white mist suddenly rose from below the ship. When the mist dissipated, the huge bracket raised in the landing area had firmly parked the ship in the parking position, and then a row of neat rows of lights appeared on the glorious ship wall on the side. The hole, the gangway protruded from the inside, extending to the ground, and someone walked out of the gangway.
At this time, those who come to pick up people can also go to the landing zone.
The four people entered the landing zone and looked carefully at everyone who got off the ship. They soon saw two familiar figures.
The first is Shu Xingruo. She is wearing a black dress in the style of the Victorian era. An aristocratic hat further accentuates her already good appearance. She is holding a black umbrella in one hand and a slightly outdated one in the other. brown suitcase.
Her current temperament is very different from Lu Ning's impression.
Shu Xingruo originally had a cheerful personality, but after being promoted to the first level, she began to become a little depressed due to many reasons. During the day, she spent almost all day in various training venues looking for ways to improve herself. Lu Ning felt that her state was not very good. But I don’t know how to persuade him.
But now, she can feel that Shu Xingruo has an energy that she didn't even feel when she first met her.
"Shu Xingruo! This way!" Zhao Xihua had already waved his hand. Shu Xingruo turned around and saw a few people here. He immediately raised his umbrella hand to wave and walked over.
And not far behind her, there was also an acquaintance walking over chatting with others.
Ye Tisi was dressed like a detective, with a khaki beret on her head, which was in sharp contrast to her personal style, but she seemed to be enjoying it. Behind Shu Xingruo, she saw Lu Ning and others a little late, but their attitude was just as enthusiastic.
"How about the third level for those of you who sneaked away?"
After Ye Tisi approached, she directly inserted her waist and questioned him.
"When we first arrived, Lu Ning and Ye Yi had a scene," Fujii Yukine said.
"Escape?" Lu Ning glanced at Ye Tisi doubtfully.
"After you advanced, we discussed coming together, but a few days later, they all ran away in advance!" Ye Tisi pointed at Zhao Xihua and then at Fujii Yukine.
"Our team's schedule has been advanced..."
"Zhao Xihua specially invited me. I thought it was the right time, so I didn't refuse." Fujii Yukiyin explained with a smile, "And I told Shu Xingruo."
"But Ye Tisi is not someone who will let you go just because she has explained." Shu Xingruo joked, "She was really a little sad that day."
"Have I apologized to the head office?" Zhao Xihua is very good at handling this. "Except for the scene, I have taken care of all the problems here on the third level. Will I be your full-time tour guide for two days?"
"That's pretty much it..." Ye Tisi put away her pretended anger with satisfaction. And Shu Xingruo also agreed.
"How are the scores? Is the promotion going smoothly?" Ning Yeyi asked.
"Twenty-two thousand, it's not bad. At least you can earn more than the first level." Ye Tisi said.
"Forty-eight thousand, it lives up to expectations." Shu Xingruo directly said a shocking number.
You must know that although the points will fluctuate slightly depending on the scene, the overall score will not be too different. Lu Ning's upgrade is a score of 43,000. Shu Xingruo's score is second only to Du in her knowledge. The two monsters, Yiyi and Qutingchan, even had higher promotion points than Cheng Wuling.
"You...can..." The corner of Zhao Xihua's mouth twitched, "If you don't make a sound, it will be a blockbuster?"
"Luckily, I happened to encounter a suitable scene for my performance." Shu Xingruo was not proud of this. She still knew what her situation was.
