“You seem to have something on your mind, Yaowen.”
Just when Cheng Yaowen was worried, An Lan appeared out of nowhere, holding a copy of “The Count of Monte Cristo” and walking slowly beside Cheng Yaowen.
Cheng Yaowen tilted his head and glanced at An Lan, nodded slightly, shook his head again, and said no more words. But when he saw the book in An Lan’s hand, his eyes stagnated slightly.
“The Count of Monte Cristo” is a novel written by French writer Alexandre Dumas.
The story tells the story of Edmond Dantès, the first mate of the Pharaoh, who was framed by a villain during the Hundred Days Dynasty. He gained enlightenment in the prison and learned various skills from Father Faria. After escaping from prison, he became extremely rich and became the embodiment of revenge. A story about a ghost returning to retaliate and take revenge.
In fact, it is the Western version of Thirty Years in Hedong and Thirty Years in Hexi. Don’t bully young people into poverty. In terms of plot, it is even less exciting than most Qidian.com.
Edmond Dantès’s revenge is not straightforward. His revenge is full of humanitarian ideas and the application of romanticism. It is so romantic that Liang Bing can’t read this novel, which can be called the “originator of refreshing literature”.
Regardless of the starting point, the protagonist will kill your whole family, one by one.
“Have you read this book?” An Lan closed the book and asked with a smile.
“I’ve seen the movie of the same name, which was translated into Chinese, but I haven’t read the original novel.”
“Wow, my old man.
It’s incredible. I remember that the only version of “The Count of Monte Cristo” that was translated into Mandarin was the one shot in 1954.
That version was so outmoded that it was older than the old foot wrap that Aunt Liu Susan had in the cafeteria for her mother who had only four teeth left. “
An Lan joked with an extremely exaggerated translation accent.
Cheng Yaowen showed a rare smile, nodded and admitted: “If that version is the only one with such an obvious translation accent, then I am indeed watching the 1954 version.”
“Why would you want to watch such an old movie?” An Lan asked.
Cheng Yaowen was silent, lost in thought, why would he watch such an old movie?
After reminiscing for a long time, Cheng Yaowen finally remembered that it was a very ordinary afternoon. Ge Xiaolun, Liu Chuang, and Zhao Xin were playing “Cross Fire” in the third row of the Internet cafe in An Lan’s dormitory.
I was bored and really couldn’t play computer games, so I could only ask Ge Xiaolun to help me find some more classic movies.
At that time, Ge Xiaolun recommended whether the movie should be “Across the World” or “A Better Tomorrow”. He said that Chow Yun-fat was really handsome.
The first link that jumped out from Baidu was to an unknown pirated website. Ge Xiaolun said that this website did not require membership, but it had a lot of advertisements.
Cheng Yaowen still remembers that after he clicked on the link, he saw the movie called “The Count of Monte Cristo” and the first sentence in the introduction under an advertisement that was comparable to dog skin plaster and coconut palm brand coconut juice packaging: This is the world’s most famous revenge story.
It turns out to be revenge, it turns out to be revenge.
Although it was a very old movie, the picture quality was not clear, and there was a strong translation accent, Cheng Yaowen watched it with gusto, and even felt the same yearning for Edmond Dantès.
Cheng Yaowen felt that he was quite similar to the Cave King.
Both of them originally had a bright future: Cheng Yaowen was the prince of the Deno civilization and the Light Shield Royal Family, and the Cave King was the first mate of the Pharaoh, who was about to be promoted to captain and marry his beloved girl.
Both also have the same tragic past.
Cheng Yaowen watched his hometown being destroyed, fled into outer space alone, experienced life and death with his father, and became the only bloodline of the Light Shield royal family in the known universe.
The Cave King was also framed by a traitor and spent 14 years on death row. During this period, his beloved fiancée married his love rival and enemy, his old father also died of depression during the illness.
Both men also received a seed of hope at some point in time.
The King of the Cave learned mathematics, philosophy, science and several languages from Father Faria in prison, and became a man with quick thinking and profound knowledge.
He also met An Lan on Earth, obtained the Build Knight system, mastered more practical combat skills, and his combat power grew by leaps and bounds to what it is now.
only……
Will I get a happy and hopeful ending like the Count of Monte Cristo?
Cheng Yaowen looked up at the sky sadly, his eyes filled with unconscious confusion and confusion, and full of doubts about his future.
“When you lose your ambition, you can’t help but feel resentful. When you feel down and out, you can’t help but be afraid.
Natong loses hope and is drunk every day, soulless and body-like, like a scarecrow
Life can be compared to waves on the sea, sometimes rising and sometimes falling…”
Just when Cheng Yaowen felt confused, he suddenly heard An Lan singing from beside him.
It seemed to be a very classic old Hokkien song, because after An Lan sang a few lines, several fellow Hu Jianren immediately started singing along.
After singing a few words, An Lan suddenly shut up and smiled again: “Do you know what my biggest wish was before?
She was wearing a veteran polo shirt and a Hermès belt with a big logo in the Ktv, holding the beautiful Xiaomi in her arms and singing the song “You Will Win If You Work Hard” with confidence. It’s best to have a Gucci handbag on the table.
Because I heard someone say before that in southern Fujian, those with a net worth of less than 100 million are not qualified to sing this song. “
“Brother Lan, you are definitely qualified to sing this song now.” Cheng Yaowen said the truth.
An Lan smiled, stretched out his hand to simulate the undulating waves of the sea, and said: “The lyrics of this song are actually quite good. Life is full of ups and downs, and a temporary trough cannot prove anything.
There is always a bright future, so why should you sigh in depression because of temporary setbacks? “
Why do I feel that my life is ups and downs… Luoluo, your life is ups and downs… ups and downs?
After all, Cheng Yaowen did not spit out this sentence, but said with lonely eyes: “Brother Lan, thank you for encouraging me, but I really don’t see any hope now.”
“How do you say it?” An Lan listened intently.
“I have already sensed my limit. The Heart of the Earth gene has its limits. Even if I obtain the Build Drive, I can only develop my power to this extent.”
Cheng Yaowen clenched his fists, lowered his head and said: “This kind of power is certainly not weak, and even exceeded my initial expectations. But now I suddenly realize that such a powerful power is nothing in front of the fierce sun.
But I can only stop there. “
“Who said you can only stop here?”
Hearing An Lan’s inquiry, Cheng Yaowen’s spirits were lifted, his eyes glowed, and he looked at An Lan expectantly, wanting to hear what was going on.
“Now, at best, you can only be regarded as Edmond Dantès who has just escaped from death row. Although you have learned a lot from Father Faria in 14 years, that’s all.
In addition to these, the ultimate version of King of the Cave also has a massive treasure found from Monte Cristo, as well as eight years of preparation for revenge after escaping from prison.
Now you are still a long way from your true peak. “
An Lan casually took out a prop from the dark plane, shook it twice and said with a smile: “Ultraman Zero said that I have no limits.
I don’t know if Zero really has no limit, but I know you’ve just hit a temporary bottleneck now. And I have many ways to help you break the bottleneck.
For example, this. “
Cheng Yaowen looked at the prop in An Lan’s hand and recognized it at a glance as the forbidden prop [Danger Activation Device] that An Lan had used.
The more he uses the Build Knight system, the more Cheng Yaowen understands how powerful the dangerous trigger is.
Below 5.0, Danger Trigger can increase the user’s danger level by up to 1.0, and more importantly, it can also provide nearly unlimited violent energy, making it possible to fire consecutive ultimate moves.
Paired with the Build Knight system, it’s like getting even more powerful and Ultraman Jack getting the Ultra Bracelet.
Guiman’s sparks flashed, and Noah’s head fell to the ground! I got up, and I was instantly beaten with one punch. What can I say?
“Give me this?”
Cheng Yaowen subconsciously stretched out his hand, then thought of something and then retracted it.
This thing is so terrifying and powerful that even Cheng Yaowen, who has never used it before, knows the importance of dangerous triggers to the knight system.
It’s so important that with An Lan’s current level, he can still get an increase in combat power by using Evol Driver + Evolution Full Bottle, and using Danger Trigger.
This is how the Blood Sun form comes about. In terms of basic quality, the improvement of the Danger Trigger is not inferior to that of the Black Hole Trigger.
The maximum 50 times increase in combat power of the Black Hole Trigger will be largely offset by the infinite energy of the Danger Trigger. The biggest improvement of the Black Hole Trigger is that it can turn the knight from a super soldier into a walking black hole.
“why not?
I lent it to you. “
An Lan casually threw the dangerous trigger to Cheng Yaowen, not taking the dangerous trigger as a [forbidden prop] to heart.
As a boss, you must not be infinitely kind to your subordinates, otherwise you will not be a boss, but a licking dog and a saint.
But it can’t be said that he is stingy, not giving anything to his subordinates, and watching his subordinates’ combat power seriously lag behind the version.
The dangerous trigger is not necessary for An Lan at this moment, it can even be said to be dispensable. In addition to the black hole trigger, An Lan also has the angel trigger developed by He Xi, which is not inferior to the dangerous trigger.
Even if this thing is given to Cheng Yaowen, the latter’s strength is still within An Lan’s control. With a danger level of 6.5 + Evol Knight System + Black Hole Trigger, how can the Dragon Rider lose?
The props that were insignificant to An Lan had different meanings to Cheng Yaowen.
Cheng Yaowen caught the dangerous trigger with both hands and held it tightly in his hand as if he had grasped the future, with a look of hope in his eyes.
“Before you use a dangerous trigger, I have a few words of advice.”
An Lan introduced: “The danger level of ordinary Shenhe life forms has a limit. I think you have also felt it. The danger level of 5.0 is your limit.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t improve your strength once you reach your limit.
The danger level is the human body’s adaptation threshold to the special energy source of nebula gas. The higher the level, the more energy it can drive.
It’s called a danger level, but it’s better to say it’s a safety level. Within the threshold, no matter how you use the energy, there is no unconventional danger.
But once it exceeds this threshold, for example, if you only have a danger level of 5.0, you have injected into your body nebula gas that can only be used at a level of 6.0.
Then your body will be in danger. Once it is severely injured, it will be backlashed by the excess nebula gas, and your body will collapse and die.
After using the Dangerous Trigger, your Danger Level can be raised to about 5.6-5.8, which is the high-end third-generation god level. Combined with the God-killing power of the Dangerous Mode, it is not impossible to kill gods.
However, because your own Danger Level is only 5.0 and you do not have the Blood bloodline, the violent energy of the Dangerous Trigger will cause damage to your body at all times and erode your brain until it loses control.
This is a prop that can be called [Forbidden].
Whether to use it, when to use it, and how long to use it is up to you. “
Holding the Dangerous Trigger in his hand, Cheng Yaowen felt the heaviness of the power. Sure enough, the power beyond the limit has a price, but what does it matter?
In “World of Warcraft”, the orc shaman Gul’dan drank the blood of the evil Mannoroth, exchanged his soul for power, and wanted Grommash to drink it too.
He said: Drink it, Hellscream-this is the fate of the orcs, and you will all be kings.
Grommash asked: But, Gul’dan, what is the price?
Everything, the price is “everything”.
Cheng Yaowen Wen has made up his mind to pay all this, for revenge, to restore the glory of the Light Shield Royal Family, and to rebuild the Denor civilization.
But even with this awareness, Cheng Yaowen is still a little afraid of the forbidden power in his hand.
To avenge Lieyang and prove himself, to restore the Light Shield Royal Family and rebuild the new Denor civilization, these are Cheng Yaowen’s two major wishes.
Now it seems that these two wishes are likely to become a multiple-choice question, revenge or development, you can only choose one.
Still the same sentence: which way to go, you choose it yourself.
“By the way, I have something to tell you.”
An Lan smiled and said, “I will go to Lieyang next month. Reina is getting married, and I am the groom.
You can go with me, and play Xiao Yan’s first visit to Yunlan Sect, thirty years in the east and thirty years in the west, don’t bully the poor young man. “
Cheng Yaowen suddenly froze, his facial muscles stiffened. What was going on? Brother Lan was actually going to marry Lena. Doesn’t that mean Brother Lan was going to become the prince of Lieyang?
The boss became the prince of his enemy. What kind of development was this? Cheng Yaowen didn’t think An Lan had any intention of harming him. It would be easy for him to kill him.
Cheng Yaowen just felt a little at a loss, not knowing what to do.
“Don’t worry, I won’t stop you from doing anything you want to do.”
The universe is so chaotic that An Lan can’t manage it. An Lan has never cared about the life and death of angels and demons. He only cares about the people closest to him.
Angels and demons can influence their internal affairs and decision-making, but Lieyang can’t, so there is no need to care.
“Come on, give Lieyang a little knight shock.”
An Lan patted Cheng Yaowen’s shoulder gently, and stuffed the book in his hand to Cheng Yaowen, and smiled: “This is for you. Read more books when you have nothing to do. It’s good for you. “
After An Lan left, Cheng Yaowen looked at the “Count of Monte Cristo” in his hand with a confused heart.
I still remember that when he first talked with An Lan, An Lan gave him a copy of “Nietzsche’s Poems” and wrote on the title page “Those who praise my true name will see eternal life in reincarnation.”
Cheng Yaowen read that “Nietzsche’s Poems” many times. Although he couldn’t understand it, he felt that he benefited a lot.
Cheng Yaowen opened the cover of the book in his hand, and sure enough, he saw the words left by An Lan on the title page again, “The way to salvation is in it.”
What does it mean?
Cheng Yaowen frowned. Could this book help him solve his difficulties or make any important decisions?
It’s better to read it a few more times. It won’t hurt after all.
