Chapter Forty three

  Contrary to the initial impression, you find that Pariston is actually a very long-winded and very egotistical guy. 

  This person enthusiastically spent more than an hour explaining to you the concept of "Nen", which is similar to the nature of Qigong. It is divided into Six major Enhancement, Transmutation, Conjuration, Specialization, Manipulation and Emission. People of different departments can learn different kinds of skills, you can develop in the direction of Enhancement if you think about it - you don't need those fancy skills, for the brave, you only need to increase the attack power wildly. Those who drink potions and cast magic are all supporting roles.

  "What should I do first?" You looked at Pariston and asked. Of course, you don't expect him to give good advice. This person's words are too formulaic. He is indeed the most like a man in the Hunter Association officials, right? But after many years, you can't remember the details of what Gon Killua and the others learned in the comics.

  "Take off your clothes first." Pariston said without hesitation.

  "...What?"

  You were taken aback for a moment, and you didn't react for a while, thinking that you had heard it wrong.

  "I'm sorry I didn't catch you...can you say that again?"

  "Take off your clothes, little Carrot Potato."

  The vice president looks at you with a modest smile. From his face that seems to have no other expression except "smile", you can't tell whether his words are serious or joking.

"...I really have to take it off." Your expression was a little stiff, and you thought that the vice-chairman shouldn't have any idea about you, don't get me wrong, maybe this is one of the ways of studying.

  "Well, I want to help you get your aura nodes opened first." Pariston nodded seriously: "If you're embarrassed, it's okay to keep your underwear."

  "...…OK."

  So that's what he meant, but is there something wrong with his last sentence... If you can wear underwear, who would take it off! Anyway, you almost had a frank meeting with him in the bathroom, take it off... just take it off!

  Half an hour later, you put on a "passionate bikini" and come out of the bathroom.

  After adding charm, the bikini is still very good. Although the performance is not as good as the gown protected by the goddess, it is still good as an underwear that can be worn outside.

  "Oh! The baby carrot potato are so beautiful, like stars shining in the dark night."

  "..."

  You are already speechless to the vice president, it's a good thing he can come up with such a vulgar description... Isn't this game anti-vulgar?

  "Anyway, let's open the aura nodes first, little Carrot Potato, remember to hold your breath." Pariston still smiled unreliably, but suddenly changed his frivolous tone, and his eyes became sharp: "Otherwise, you will die."

  "Okay, but..."

  This change made you unable to react for a while, and you wanted to say a few words to ease the atmosphere and prepare yourself mentally, but before you had time to inquire about the precautions in detail, Pariston suddenly pressed hard on your back as fast as lightning One shot. 

  Damn, can't even see his speed? The only thing you thought of before your eyes went dark is that his agility is really high...

  "Wow--!!"

  A heavy force pushes you forward, as if something is injected into your body. Before you have time to think about it, you have fallen to the ground, and your eyes are blurred.

  You struggled to get up, but you only felt that the energy in your body was overflowing crazily, and you couldn't lift your strength at all. The blow on your back made you feel like your spine was going to be broken, and the viscera in your stomach were rolled together, and you almost vomited out your intestines.

  Will it be disabled for life by accident? You are thinking hard...

  Is this cheating? ! You think the steps to open the aura nodes are not like this! If he hadn't warned you beforehand, you would have thought he was going to beat you up!

  Also, the vice president's attack power is so high! To put it bluntly this will kill you...

  "Good luck."

  Your consciousness is a little fuzzy... You can only vaguely hear such an encouragement that is not a blessing. In your blurred vision, the vice president pulled up that formulaic smiling face again, he left you lying on the ground in pain, walked to the sofa by the coffee table and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea gracefully .

 This guy doesn't take you seriously, does he?

  Help...Who will help you...

  The qi in your body can't stop coming out of every pore on your body. You try hard to contain the outflow of qi, but you still can't stop its jet flow.

  The uncontrollable feeling of the body is like a painful version of a ghost bed. You are lying on the ground struggling and wriggling, all kinds of miserable situations, so painful that your heart is bleeding.

  "?~"

  The vice president stopped paying attention to you, he closed his eyes and began to drink tea, he seemed in a good mood.

  You tell yourself in your heart, you are the protagonist, you cannot die! But the reality doesn't seem so optimistic... No matter how high the defense is, it can't resist the pain rushing out of the body. Pariston is still looking at you as if watching a good show. I don't know if it's your illusion. You find that his eyes are not as modest as you have seen before, and that fake and formulaic smile suddenly becomes a little cold.

  Is it an illusion... Who knows, maybe you really started to have hallucinations...

  Just when you thought that you were about to die from exhaustion, no, when you were exhausted, you suddenly realized that the Qi in your body began to gradually shrink, and the remaining Qi condensed into a ball and began to circulate throughout your body. Slowly warming, like being wrapped in cotton candy, tender, soft... very comfortable.

  "Well done, carrot potato."

  The vice president put down the teacup, he walked up to you, and stretched out his hand to help you up.

  "I knew Little Carrot Potato would be able to do it. Let's move on to the next step. Do you need a break?"

  You took a breath and looked up at the vice president, who was still smiling brightly. I don't know why, but at this moment you suddenly want to punch him, to see if some of his white teeth will fall out.

  "Give me five minutes..."

  You stumbled onto the sofa, lay down like a puddle of mud, and then opened the menu bar to check your status: It's really miserable... The health and physical strength have entered the state of danger. If you are bitten by some monster at this time If you take a bite, you may hang up immediately.

Without even thinking about it, you quickly took out two hamburgers from your backpack, and ate them hungrily facing Pariston.

  Your HP began to recover rapidly, almost instantly returning to the full state, your cheeks on both sides are bulging like a fat brown bear, staring at the vice president, his eyes are still not kind.

  "Good appetite." Pariston smiled and looked at you, his white teeth still gleaming.

  After swallowing the hamburger, he drank the tea made by Pariston in one gulp, and only then did your feel a little relieved. HP recovery and your own body feeling are two different things, you have the feeling of being a human again.

  "Go on." You wiped off the sesame seeds on the corner of your mouth, and stared at him while chewing on the toffee.

  "Well, let's see which department you are in next." Pariston said: "The most common test is the Water Divination. This method was invented by Mr. wing, and it is quite practical. But before doing this test, the little Carrot Potato Can tell me the direction you want to develop yourself?"

  "Hope to be a Enhancement faction?"

  There are too many types of thoughts that can be transformed. Some abilities may seem special, but they may be useless to you. After all, your main goal is to fight the enemies in front of you. What you need is a strong combat power. Thinking of that beautiful woman with a whip makes you uncomfortable. If you have enough strength, why would you be held by her? And that young man from the Second Second Family, if you was quick enough, why did it take half an hour to kill her?

Pariston spread his hands, shrugged and shook his head.

  "It's an amazing idea. Very few girls want to become fighters. Although I should say 'support you', as the vice president of the Hunter Association, I still want to give you a piece of advice."

  Pariston crooked his neck, still smiling, and you nodded to express that you wanted to hear him continue.

  "I understand the feelings of the weak very well. Little carrot potato are weak like me, and naturally desire power, but I think that will make you go down many wrong paths... I think that relying on strength alone is not enough. If you want to defeat the strong What the you needs is not necessarily strength, but wisdom."

  "..." You stared at Pariston, who smiled brightly at you indifferently. At this moment, you opened the status bar, and took a peek at your status—accumulated by your hard work, leveling, taking drugs, adding attributes, wearing ten rings, etc., your intelligence has just reached a pitiful forty-two points. In the real world, it seems that even the mentally retarded are not qualified to be, and there is still a long way to go before the so-called 70 IQ of the mentally retarded...

  It's too bad, you silently close the status bar and pretend you didn't see the number.

  "What about people who have no strength and insufficient intelligence?"

  You asked back with a sullen face, he clearly just stood and talked without pain in his back...

  "No, you misunderstood me." Pariston said: "No matter at any time, no matter how strong you become, you may meet someone stronger than you, or be killed by someone weaker than you , because 'Nen' is a fascinating existence that people can never explore to the end."

  "So before developing your Nen, think about what you need."

  After leaving Pariston's room, you start to think about what he said to you, but you still feel that his advice to you is useless and bullshit-not enough blood? Just take drugs! People who practice auxiliary skills can only be nurses, so why bother. It's just that Pallistone made you think about it and go to him tomorrow morning. It would be impolite to go back and disturb him now. And you think that if you go back to look for him again, you might meet the heroic scene of old women smearing skin care products all over their bodies... After thinking about it, you decide to do a Water Divination by yourself first, to see which department you belong to, and then Then consider the issue of capacity development.

  So you ran to the corridor and saw no one around, secretly picked a leaf from the bonsai ornamental tree and slipped back to the room. You do this kind of thing occasionally in normal times, you are really familiar with it.

  When you return to your room, you take an empty wine glass from the cabinet, fill it with water, and gently place the leaves on top of the water.

  It may be that the water in the cup has not calmed down and is shaking a bit, and the leaves can't float well in the center of the water surface. As a last resort, you have to put the cup flat on the ground, and then try to release the nen to the water cup.

  ......

  .........

  ............

  No response. Whether it is the water in the cup or the floating leaves, they all stay in the cup without moving.

  If you don't believe in evil, dip your finger in some water and taste it.

  No taste, just a glass of plain water.

  The author has something to say: I have come up with a more awesome reading ability

Absolutely invincible golden finger!
