Gu Jianlin was silent for a long time and suddenly smiled.
"what are you laughing at?"
Lu Zicheng asked curiously.
Gu Jianlin said softly: "For a long time in the past, everyone thought that I was crazy, that there was something wrong with my brain, that I had post-traumatic stress disorder, and that everything I saw was fake."
Lu Zicheng patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "A fallen flower cannot be restored to its branches, and a broken mirror cannot be reunited. Once a person is enlightened, it will never be possible to return to the secular world. You are a person chosen by another world, so naturally It will not be understood by normal people. It is a gift, a curse, a blessing, and also a tragedy."
Gu Jianlin felt that he was very lucky. If he hadn't come into contact with the extraordinary world, learned about the ancient gods and sublime beings, and the secrets of another time and space dimension, he would never have known how his father died.
Some things just passed by inexplicably.
Maybe he would never see that scary monster on the highway again in his life.
There is no way to seek justice from anyone.
He hesitated for a long time and finally asked the question he wanted to ask.
"So, my father's death was not just a car accident."
He raised his head, his eyes reflected the faint skylight, and there was silence: "He was killed."
Lu Zicheng's hand holding the cigarette paused slightly, then nodded slowly.
"right."
After a long silence.
Gu Jianlin clenched his palms silently and stared into the other person's eyes: "Can you tell me the specific reason?"
This time, Lu Zicheng rarely avoided his eyes.
"Although every child has the right to know the cause of death of their parents, I'm sorry that I can't say it because this matter involves a very high level of confidentiality, and I can't violate the confidentiality regulations of the Ether Association."
He hesitated and said, "And you may not be able to accept the truth."
Gu Jianlin said expressionlessly: "It's my business whether you can accept it. If so, I want to know how to qualify to be told the truth about this matter? Can I join the Ether Association?"
The other party said that he is a rare independent awakening among seven billion people, and he is valuable.
Lu Zicheng took a long puff of cigarette and scratched his head: "You are quite smart. I really want to invite you to join the Ether Association. For a genius like you, the Ether Association will not let you wander outside."
"But regarding your father's matter, I can't guarantee that you will get the answer in the near future. I need to ask my superiors for instructions, and you also need to complete some assessments and tests before you can successfully become a member of the Ether Association."
He paused: "Of course, if you are strong enough, you can ignore all these rules."
Gu Jianlin was stunned.
"Is this surprising? This world has always followed the jungle law of the jungle. If you are now a ninth-level ascender and cross the wall of cognition to become a demigod, you can override all the rules of this world. Come on, no one dares to say no to you, including those old guys from the Ether Association."
Lu Zicheng shrugged and joked: "Because you can blow their heads off at any time, and the rules they set are bullshit to you. Of course, they will not offend you. According to my understanding of them, they only They will line up to greet you, kneeling and licking you one after another, and you will become the emperor among the ascendants..."
Gu Jianlin pondered for a moment: "It sounds very pleasant."
"Of course it's fun."
Lu Zicheng smiled and said: "The pig teammates you meet when playing games will also know who is the big one. All the heads of the monsters in the army line will be given to you. It is the same in the world of the Ascendants."
Gu Jianlin asked: "Is there really such a person?"
Lu Zicheng smiled and said: "Are you excited? I can only tell you that there have been a few in history. The most famous one you should have seen in junior high school history textbooks is now at the northern foot of Lishan Mountain in Lintong District, Chang'an City."
Gu Jianlin was stunned: "That First Emperor?"
"Hmm, there are two of them alive today."
Lu Zicheng glanced sideways at him: "And you, currently you haven't even chosen your inheritance path."
Gu Jianlin felt a little confused and couldn't help but said: "The problem is that no one let me choose."
Lu Zicheng curled his lips: "Tsk, you are a noble self-sublimator. Unlike mediocre people like us, you still need to use the sublimation ceremony of the Ether Association to help us choose the inheritance path. When you fully understand this real world, You will naturally choose your own inheritance path."
Gu Jianlin touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
He has heard the term inheritance path many times.
If you guessed it correctly, just like the different career divisions in online games, sublimators can choose different inheritance paths to change careers, and their abilities and characteristics are also different.
At present, he knows that there are four inheritance paths.
Alchemist, magician, witch, ancient martial artist.
Each inheritance path has extremely obvious professional characteristics in his profile, which is clear at a glance.
Gu Jianlin didn't know if it was because he had been to Qilin Immortal Palace, but his profile could actually analyze other people's inherited professions. This was even more outrageous than the personality portraits he had seen before.
If you tell me, no one will believe you.
I don’t know if my father’s profile will give me the same picture as him.
Alchemist, as the name suggests, should be a wet nurse.
The magicians have also fought against each other. The most basic one can only use illusions, which have no effect on him.
As for the witch, it is a auxiliary profession, and it is still unclear what specific abilities it has.
The last Kotake was so fierce.
The huge and burly ancient warrior phantom was as oppressive as a demon. The terrifying power and cold killing aura were as arrogant as a storm. Even after two hours, it was still fresh in my memory.
Gu Jianlin almost suffered a cardiac arrest just by looking at it.
"The one you are fighting is called a magician. He has no special abilities except hypnosis at the initial stage. He is recognized as the weakest profession in the early stage. Even ordinary people with a more determined mind cannot deal with it. And Chen Qing is the witch path, the main one. The abilities are perception and assistance, spiritual purification, and psychological counseling.”
Lu Zicheng gave a brief introduction: "I am Gu Wu. As the name suggests, it is the most powerful profession. We control the power of Qi. Previously, I exploded the opponent's head with a snap of my fingers, which is the high-end use of Qi."
He talked eloquently: "As for other inheritance channels, there are many, such as priests in the West, sword sects in the East, and the unpredictable Onikiri, the Paladin who is born to be a human shield..."
Really fancy.
Gu Jianlin became curious: "What inheritance path will I take?"
"Don't worry about this, you will know tonight."
Lu Zicheng said seriously: "Now, what you have to do is to deal with your family members well..."
"Family members?"
Gu Jianlin was stunned and turned to look out the window.
I saw a very familiar girl standing outside the window, wearing white casual clothes. She only had a bun, a mask on her face, her hands on her waist, and a pair of slippers.
Su Youzhu.
