The Black Book: Seven Deadly Sins-Chapter 149: Longevity Species’ View on Time
After testing the effects of inner strength, Zhu Haomiao once again activated his inner breath, and a faint metallic sheen appeared visibly on the back of his hand.
In the spiritual vision, his skin emanated a metallic texture, as if an invisible armor covered his entire body, giving the young man an illusion of being indestructible for a moment.
Clang clang~
He flicked his skin with his finger, and the faint metallic clanging sound made Zhu Haomiao's eyes light up.
Combined with his strong physique, it seemed that even small-caliber pistols couldn't penetrate it!
Then, Zhu Haomiao recalled a previous encounter with an ADC holding a special sniper rifle, and his excitement quickly calmed down.
That thing still couldn't be stopped, let alone an anti-tank cannon!
Damn it!
Still not strong enough...
If I can't even withstand guns and cannons, when will I be able to take a nuke to the face?!
With a sigh of disappointment, Zhu Haomiao's gaze moved downward, looking at his six-dimensional attributes.
[God]: 30→37 (2)↑
[Dexterity]: 30→37 (2)↑
[Strength]: 37→44 (6)↑
[Essence]: 32→39
[Qi]: 36→43 (6)↑
[Physique]: 37→44 (5)↑
Except for the [Essence] attribute, the other five dimensions were not fully digested, but the physical injuries were completely healed.
Gently stretching his limbs, Zhu Haomiao suddenly frowned, holding his stomach.
Gurgle gurgle~~~
The empty stomach contracted in spasms, faintly emitting a hissing sound of bubbles, which was the sound of stomach acid digesting itself.
"Squeak~"
As if sensing its owner's hunger, a mink head popped out from his collar, offering a grape like a treasure and stuffing it into the boy's mouth without a word.
Seeing the shiny grape covered in saliva, Zhu Haomiao disdainfully raised his head, dodging left and right.
I, Zhu Haomiao, would rather starve to death!
Die outside!
Than eat your saliva-covered stuff!!
He pressed the well-meaning Diao Chan back into his collar and flipped up, heading straight for the "canteen."
Several minutes later, the hungry youth arrived at [Xinghua House], spotted from afar by the concierge boy who eagerly greeted him.
"Mr. Zhu, it's been a while since you came! Please, come inside!"
Following the boy inside, Zhu Haomiao suddenly paused at the door, looking at a blue-faced tusked portrait hanging by the entrance.
"What's this thing? Looks so... distinctive?"
Zhu Haomiao couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder.
This portrait was so conspicuous that everyone entering or leaving would inevitably see it.
The key point was that it looked very eye-catching!
"Mr. Zhu, you may not know, but this warrior... ahem, this fierce person caused a major incident a while ago. He stormed a Westerner's banquet and slaughtered dozens of barbarian officers."
"Now the barbarians... um, friendly nations are outraged, and the court has issued a sea arrest warrant, asking all of us to keep a watchful eye day and night to find him!"
Zhu Haomiao: "..."
The amused smile on his face slowly faded as the boy stared at the portrait, lost in deep thought.
Sounds kind of familiar...
But this thing, not to say it looks exactly like me, could only be described as completely unrelated...
Am I really that ugly?
Wait a minute!
Height of twenty feet, waist of eight feet?
Damn, is it a square?!!
Gripping his fists in agony, Zhu Haomiao furiously stewed for a moment and then quickly put it behind him, striding into the restaurant's main door.
Just look for this, each wrong one not saying a word!
"Same as always, thanks to the chefs in the back."
"Don't worry, the master chefs in the back eagerly await you every day, making sure you eat well!"
The boy rubbed his hands excitedly, as if seeing stacks of silver notes in the youth's pockets.
Although serving this VIP was a bit tiring, the tips were extremely generous!
Even when divided equally, everyone could receive tips equivalent to one or two months of salary!
Now everyone up and down at [Xinghua House] eagerly awaits this god of wealth!
Soon, after a hearty feast, his four-dimensional stomach was filled again, and Zhu Haomiao was full of energy, rushing towards [Yanhuang Armory] without hesitation.
Familiar with the route to the underground arena, the boy found Wang Hua in the work area, giving his shoulder a light pat.
"Senior Brother Wang, can I have some fries~"
"Junior Brother Zhu, it's been so long since you... hmm?"
Turning to see Zhu Haomiao, Wang Hua's face lit up with joy, suddenly noticing a touch of gold on his chest, his brows jumping.
"When did you advance to gold?!!"
"Huh? That was a while ago, you didn't see when I greeted you last time?"
"We barely met last time, and you hurried away. How could I notice such details!"
With both envy and jealousy, Wang Hua lightly punched Zhu Haomiao, sighing wistfully.
He knew this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to come so fast!
Back then, the little black iron newbie who knew nothing caught up to his energy level in just over two years!
And the boy's clear and naive eyes from their first meeting still seemed vivid in his mind...
Subconsciously glancing at Zhu Haomiao's eyes, Wang Hua couldn't help but laugh.
Now his gaze hasn't changed much either, still goofy...
"Senior Brother Wang, I feel like you're thinking of something very disrespectful!"
"No, you're imagining it."
Waving his hand, Wang Hua decisively changed the subject.
"By the way, what were you just saying? Fries?"
"You misheard, I asked for a match to be arranged."
"What?!! The points matches are all over now; only revival matches are left. How can I arrange one for you?"
"What?!! The point matches are over? They just started!"
Shocked by the bad news, Zhu Haomiao's heart ached as though he had lost a fortune!
Then he suddenly realized a serious issue.
"Wait, did I accumulate enough points?"
Hearing this, Wang Hua couldn't help but laugh: "After three matches, you were placed as a seeded contender and directly promoted to the next tier."
"Besides, just started... the points matches have been going on for almost a year, you must be muddled!"
Zhu Haomiao: "..."
Due to the need for long periods of deep sleep to digest attributes, he often rested in the pitch-dark sleeping tomb, frequently closing his eyes and opening them to find dozens of days had passed!
Time perception was evidently somewhat abnormal!
A bit like a longevity species from a fantasy novel...
But as long as the points are enough...
Suddenly, Zhu Haomiao realized something and held his breath.
"Wait, isn't it the Jiawu year now!"
"Yes, it's already Jiawu, but the Eastern Learning Party in Korea has just started their uprising, and the full-scale war is estimated to be a few months away."
Saying this, Wang Hua showed an evil grin, patting the boy's shoulder.
"I have work and can't go to the battlefield; you help me beat those little idiots!"
Zhu Haomiao patted his chest, twisting his mouth.
"No problem!"
He's always been enthusiastic about dealing with taking down the Imperial Army!
