Chapter 6, Provocation

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

What he does not know is that in this world, there are similar forms of lyrics and music that are quite popular among the orc nobility. Originally, these were recited in divine language by ancient families. However, with the development over several centuries, especially due to the complex changes in social hierarchy, some emerging nobles, although they do not know the divine language, can still use the orc language to feign sophistication.

Gazing at the bright moon outside the window, the only object so similar to Earth, suddenly, Zou Liang felt a deep longing for home, thinking of his classmates, both those who were kind to him and those who were not

Strengthening Ernest is also a crucial aspect of his survival in this world

"Hehe, what is it that is so melancholic?" Avril laughed, perhaps it is because the year-end exams are approaching, and there are relatively more people in the library. Avril is the most diligent among them; she comes to the library genuinely to learn something, rather than just to prepare for exams.

Seeing Avril's puzzled gaze, Zou Liang realized that he had become overly excited

"It turns out that there are people in the Bill tribe who enjoy reading." A pleasant voice rang in my ears

The weakest point is also the strongest point; this principle is skillfully applied by Zou Liang in 3D combat, but it is not so simple when applied to reality

Awakening, and the book does not represent a change in the world; only oneself has changed

By evening, a scene of chaos was left behind. In the past, Zou Liang would have certainly complained about it, but now he cheerfully tidied up. Fortunately, Arthur had left him this task; otherwise, he truly would not have known what to do. The books here are generally not allowed to be borrowed, and of course, hardly anyone is willing to borrow them. However, for Zou Liang, this was incredibly convenient

When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the azure sky. I do not know what year it is in the celestial palaces above... Inspired by this, Zou Liang reminisces about the nights in university when a group of brothers would each hold a bottle of beer, dancing and reveling in the moment, thinking they understood everything. It is only today that I realize what it means to be lost in the vastness of life and death.

Avril was momentarily taken aback, a look of surprise fleeting across her face, yet she still politely nodded and said, "Thank you"

After reviewing some materials, Zou Liang discovered an issue: Orcs seem unable to utilize Qi; they must convert their Beast Spirit Power to be effective. Having it within their bodies serves no purpose, and moreover, when battling in the Beast Spirit Realm, the more Beast Spirits one possesses, the greater the losses incurred upon defeat. Therefore, every Orc is eager to convert their Beast Spirit Power once it reaches the required standard.

When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the azure sky. I do not know what year it is in the heavenly palaces above. This is ... ... ? '' Avril's beautiful eyes were fixed intently on Zou Liang.

Owen felt that his elder brother was acting a bit crazy

Zou Liang shrugged and said, "Miss Avril, I am off work now. Please come early tomorrow"

Just browsing casually, feeling bored

While thinking and watching, sometimes frowning, sometimes smiling wryly, and sometimes laughing silently, no one pays attention to Arthur; such a character is likely to be overlooked in the corner.

In the following week, Zou Liang's life was incredibly routine. In the mornings, he either bounced around joyfully in Ernest's eyes or sat in a daze. He attended classes in the morning, spent the afternoons in the library, and in the evenings, he engaged in late-night reading with a crystal ball.

Life remains unchanged; Ernest is still frequently beaten, and the two continue to be mocked for amusement at any moment.

Onisete went out to work, putting in effort to earn some living expenses. Zou Liang unceremoniously treated the crystal ball as a free lamp. In a typical orc family, the crystal ball would be revered as a sacred object, but Zou, being an atheist, saw it differently. Moreover, the Beast God is generous and magnanimous; making the best use of resources is the true principle.

However, there is a key element in this, which is the Beast Spirit Power. In fact, ever since the victory yesterday, there has been a warm entity within him. Initially, it was present, but not as pronounced as it is now, moving around inside like a little mouse. Zou Liang can sense it moving about with his mind. The orcs refer to this as Beast Spirit Power, which, in modern terms, could be understood as a form of special energy.

Zou Liang does not want to get entangled with Avril. Tomorrow is a day off after a week, and it is also the day he has prepared to train well

He does not just jump around aimlessly every morning; rather, he is familiarizing himself with the flexibility of his body, attempting to break down the movements in his mind into segments to see if he can achieve them. In the future, he will also focus on the impact force. Zou Liang is well aware of the importance of a gradual approach; after all, he is a master's degree holder in mechanical engineering. If the foundation is unstable, it will only lead to numerous problems later on.

When fighting against that Taigo, in the final kick, I instinctively concentrated all my energy in my leg, which resulted in a lethal attack power

He has seen various combat professions and has little interest in them. He already has his own plan. With infinite virtual combat experience and having extensively read chaotic materials on Sanda, Muay Thai, Jeet Kune Do, boxing, and so on, what he needs to do now is to familiarize his body with these techniques, without the necessity to learn such outdated methods. In this regard, Zou Liang can absolutely look down upon the world with confidence.

Zou Liang eagerly closed the door, clutching a few books as he ran towards his dormitory. That dilapidated place, resembling a shabby shed, had now become the place Zou Liang desired the most

The courses at the War Academy are quite flexible, similar to those at universities on Earth. Now, Zou Liang has completely adapted to this environment. The gains from this week have been truly abundant, dispelling his previous confusion. His mind is filled with various plans. Undoubtedly, strength is the ultimate truth. To survive in this relatively dangerous environment, it is essential to enhance both his and Ernest's capabilities.

"Hehe, I don't know what it is either, just nonsense, nonsense." Zou Liang quickly shook his head, instinctively believing that explaining this to the other party would be futile.

During this period, although she did not want to, it was difficult not to pay attention to this Bill clan. She had never seen a Bill who loved reading so much, and his demeanor was neither servile nor overbearing, possessing a hint of nobility. However, this person was also famously known in the academy as a dual cripple. Could it be that the rumors about the - picture - book are unfounded?

Avril looked at Arthur's hurried figure and wondered if she was paying too much attention to this person, a frail member of the Bill tribe. Sigh, she had so many things to attend to and it was not easy to be distracted. However, that sentence just now was truly remarkable; it had such an artistic conception from the very beginning, and the latter part would surely be even more impressive.

Is that so? I don't think so," Avril said with a smile. "Whether a person is serious or just going through the motions is quite clear.

Seeing Arthur deny it, Avril did not press further, but her doubts only grew. A weak Bill clan member appeared even more composed than the nobles in front of her. This song and lyrics were definitely making their first appearance. Avril, who was well-versed in lyrics and music, was certain of this, yet this person was deliberately concealing their talent. Why?

Zou Liang looked up and saw the beautiful woman from the Ripple Rabbit Clan, who had been appearing frequently over the past few days. In the past, if a beauty had initiated a conversation, he would have definitely teased her playfully. However, he truly did not have the mood for that now

As for daydreaming, that was while observing Ernest. Brothers are brothers, but Zou Liang still had to admit that this foolish brother of his was truly remarkably dull, with extremely poor reaction to attacks and overly clumsy movements. This was a matter of talent; even with later training, there would likely still be significant issues, which indeed caused Zou Liang a great deal of headache
