"Left, right, left, right, turn around, slide."
After completing a set of movements, Bai Lu wiped the fine sweat from her forehead. After four months of training, her physique had been greatly enhanced, and the endurance brought by her racial characteristics was emerging.
Mr. Four came back a month ago. He didn’t say anything. After checking the homework assigned to Alina, he couldn’t see anyone all day long. He rarely even went to Abigail’s store. No one knew about him. where to.
With such a big knight lord, maybe go to a club to relieve stress?
After living in the big city for several months, Alina gradually became familiar with it and knew about various entertainment venues. Although she never went there, she listed them all in her notebook when doing research.
Somehow, Mr. Fourth had time today, and he even came to train with her.
"The strength of your body will continue to increase with the heat of intensive training. You still have a lot to do. Don't be happy yet. I'm a little curious, why haven't you awakened the Origin Stone skills until now?"
Zhou Jinru was puzzled. He originally thought that after being away for a few months, he would be able to see Alina's special abilities when he came back. However, it backfired. Alina was like a squib in magic. The big banshee tried every means, but nothing happened. Able to awaken her Origin Stone skills.
"Maybe I'm not born with Origin Stone skills."
"Everyone has Origin Stone skills, and you must have them too, but we didn't find the right way."
If you cannot awaken the Origin Stone skill, you cannot activate the shield value. Without the shield value, no matter how much training Alina does, she will still be in danger when she encounters the enemy.
However, having Source Stone skills does not mean that you can activate the shield value.
"What should we do now?"
The year 1094 will pass soon, and there are still two years until the end of 1096. Zhou Jinru rarely has time to rest, so he plans to take a vacation for himself and rest for a while.
"So Mr. Fourth, did you go to those clubs?"
"What club?"
Alina said seriously: "Two days ago, you were still asking me where the stores in the record were. You must have gone there, right?"
"No, I'm not that kind of person. Why do you think so?"
"You have a habit of turning your eyes to the right unconsciously when you lie."
"Don't try to deceive me. I know myself very well."
Zhou Jinru stood up and hooked his fingers: "Come on, attack with all your strength, let me see what you have learned in the past few months, use all your methods, don't worry, I won't get hurt easily."
For some reason, Alina's eyes suddenly changed, and her entire aura became tense. Her fists were not big, but they were very powerful.
Snapped.
Fists and palms meet.
"The strength is okay, but the speed is not enough, come again!"
Bailu attacked like a sudden storm, and in her body, Zhou Jinru saw the shadow of his original self. If he couldn't do it, he would practice whatever he wanted. If he couldn't do it once, he would do it twice. If he couldn't do it once, he would do it twice.
Alina punched Zhou Jinru between his raised arms, leaned forward, raised her right arm suddenly, and hit his abdomen with her elbow.
"good!"
The rigid shield shimmered.
Zhou Jinru's eyes lit up. Alina directly knocked out his shield. Although it only lost a little amount, it meant that Bailu had reached a new level, except that he had not awakened the Origin Stone skill.
…
"You can basically go out like this. Most people can't do anything to you. The only drawback is that you have never killed anyone. I know it sounds bloody, but you have to know that many times, the relationship between people is life and death. You I don’t want to kill anyone, but someone wants to kill you, so I’ll give you a reward for your head.”
Alina held a water bottle in her hand, and she was back to back with Zhou Jinru. She whispered: "Tallulah has killed many people."
"She also killed my people."
"when?"
"Maybe."
"Not now, right?"
"Um."
Alina asked again: "What will she become in the future?"
"As for people, although they have dreams and work hard, most of the time they will only live in a way that they hate. I am the same."
Bai Lu was silent for a few seconds: "What do you hate?"
"I hate myself and this land, but I can't escape. If I don't do it and don't work hard, the people I care about will die one by one. I can only work hard and become what I hate. I used to hate the title Mr. Fourth, but after all this time, I am already Mr. Fourth."
"Shall we escape?"
Zhou Jinru turned his head: "What did you say?"
"Let's escape." Bai Lu repeated.
She continued: "If there is nothing we can do about anything, then just run away, run away to a place where no one can find us, forget everything, live with a new identity, just run away."
"It's useless. I tried. No one can escape his fate."
"But I am alive, and my destiny has changed. A rural teacher has become a very powerful person, so let's run away, just the two of us."
Zhou Jinru smiled and touched Alina's horns with his head: "Hey, are you scared?"
"No."
"You are afraid that Tallulah will become the kind of person I said. She will kill many people, kill patriots, and kill Frost Star. Although the father and daughter are not good people, she will eventually become what she hates. It seems like you're afraid that no matter how hard you try and become stronger, you won't be able to change this fact?"
Bai Lu didn't answer. After a moment, she sighed: "Has anyone ever said that you really can't speak?"
"Yes, you said it."
"you……"
"Everyone is afraid, even God is afraid, but I have no way out. I can't think of any other way except moving forward. I will not let myself retreat, and those who have placed their treasure on me will not allow me to retreat. Sometimes, people can’t help themselves.”
"It sounds like you're in a much worse situation than me. Thank you, I'm much better."
"You're welcome."
Zhou Jinru took a sip of water and heard Alina ask in a small voice: "Have you ever thought about picking up on me?"
puff.
A mouthful of water spurted out, causing Zhou Jinru to choke and lean back. The two of them lost their balance and fell off the bench in the training room, falling together.
He struggled to get up and pointed to his nose: "Do you know how old I am? I'm old enough to be your great-grandfather. It's not too much for Abigail to call me grandpa. How is it possible for me to flirt with you?" ?”
"Don't you think about it at all?"
"No, I have many girlfriends, more than a hundred of them, with different personalities and beautiful looks. They are available at any age from... eighteen to eight hundred years old."
Alina stared into the man's eyes for a long time, and then she sniffed: "With more than a hundred girlfriends, you really went to the club."
Zhou Jinru had a bulging vein on his forehead: "I am sincere to all my girlfriends, how could I go to a place like that?!"
