Chapter 4, Ultimate Evolution of Self-Healing - Immortal Body
Then go work, right? With the powerful strength of a Star Warrior, one can earn money doing anything
However, the Star Warriors are a group in which the survival conditions are extremely harsh, where the principle of survival of the fittest prevails. It is already considered fortunate for the weak to escape unscathed, especially for someone like Huang Feilong, who is nearly forty years old and whose strength has been fixed at the Starry Radiance Realm.
A monthly salary of 70,000 can allow a Star Warrior to live a comfortable and fulfilling life
In hand-to-hand combat, the foremost priority is not the mind, but the body. No matter how sharp the mind or how quick the reflexes, they cannot compare to the body's natural responses. Moreover, in addition to a deeper understanding of combat, Wang Lan's mind has also acquired many techniques that were previously unknown to him
It is an evident truth that human civilization is akin to a machine, with each individual within the civilization serving as a component of that machine. The mission of the Star Warriors is to protect civilization from being bullied and harmed by external enemies
The levels of Star Warriors are clearly defined, and by activating the star power to open the Star Palace, one can see this clearly and intuitively. Newly awakened Star Warriors are all at the Starry Realm, and a star within the Star Palace resembles a star in the sky.
This initial posture is somewhat pretentious, and Wang Lan has been unhappy about it for a long time. However, Huang Feilong is simply someone whom Wang Lan cannot defeat even with one hand. Only those with real strength can be considered pretentious, so despite being displeased for a long time, Wang Lan can only endure.
Hastily activating the self-healing skill of the Star Force, Wang Lan stared unblinkingly at the wound, one second, two seconds, three seconds
A boss who is generous and easy to talk to, and even agrees to let employees earn extra income, where can one find such a good employer
Then allocate the skill points to melee knife techniques, elevating the melee knife techniques to the bronze level
It was just like back in the day with Jiang Xinyu, a single sneeze froze Wang Lan's cola. Did she intend to attack Wang Lan? It was purely a lack of control; for Jiang Xinyu at that time, wasn't it just a passive skill?
Star warriors also need to eat, and not just a little; their appetite is several times that of an ordinary person. I ask, among the many buffet restaurants in Su City, which brave soul dares to let a star warrior through the door
In less than half an hour, Huang Feilong's car arrived at the underground parking lot on the third level, and he walked over with his shirt off
How good is the sword? Its techniques are varied, and its movements are graceful. If mastered, its lethality is also considerable. However, for most star warriors, the primary goal is to survive on the battlefield; if one cannot preserve their life, what use is there for elegance?
Protection is both a responsibility and a mission. If even the Star Warriors ride roughshod over the people, how can we expect them to risk their lives to protect us when humanity faces external threats?
Just now, there was much disdain, but now it feels so appealing. If it were someone else, gaining self-healing skills would only allow them to become a meat shield. However, Wang Lan is a man with a system; as long as he has enough skill points, he can infinitely upgrade through reckless skills.
After Wang Lan awakened, his star martial skill only had one passive ability, starting off completely unarmed. He recalled that when Jiang Xinyu awakened back in the day, a single sneeze caused the cola in his hand to become iced, even freezing the straw.
Wang Lan's agility has reached the bronze level. This was a sudden breakthrough during the last sparring session. What did Huang Feilong say at that time? Young Master Lan's evasion skills have already reached a profound level; all those punches were not taken in vain
Without any probing, he charged directly in front of Huang Feilong. This departure from his usual style surprised Huang Feilong slightly. With a punch aimed straight at the dragon, Huang Feilong calmly and slowly deflected it, then raised a leg to kick towards Wang Lan's chest
It is indeed possible to make money, but not a substantial amount. Star warriors are strong, yet at the docks, there are cranes and forklifts for heavy lifting. Star warriors are quick, but in factories, the assembly lines are operated by robots.
Wang Lande suddenly felt a bit elated, truly delightful
So what aspect of training does Mr. Lan plan to undertake today
This is quite impressive
Why do passive skills become active skills? Wang Lan was not confused about this for long. Having just awakened the abilities of a Star Warrior, the innate abilities are not initially under control.
Wang Lan acted on a whim, taking a dagger from the weapon rack and making a light cut on her arm. At first, a dark red line appeared, and then blood began to flow out slowly.
Although I secretly disdained it, I, Wang Lan, still invested 10 points into self-healing. After reaching 10 points, the self-healing skill leveled up to Bronze Lv1. However, just a few seconds later, the skill suddenly disappeared.
Upon realizing this, Wang Lan suddenly felt relieved; this self-healing was probably not as ordinary as it seemed. As a man who prefers to take the initiative, the most unacceptable thing for him is passivity
Huang Feilong bears many scars on his body, which were left from the days of pioneering. For an ordinary man, being covered in scars would undoubtedly make him a detestable rogue in the eyes of women, but for a Star Warrior, those scars are seen as medals of honor in the eyes of women
As far as is currently known, the Star Sea Realm is already the pinnacle of strength among Star Warriors, but Wang Lan, deeply influenced by online novels, can be absolutely certain that there must be new realms beyond the Star Sea.
"Mr. Lan, why are you up so early today?"
Five seconds later, the wound completely heals
With a knife in hand, one simply cuts
A starry realm star warrior willingly accepts employment from an ordinary person to become a personal trainer? Those who do not understand may say that Huang Feilong has indeed fallen from grace for money, abandoning the glory of a star warrior
Self-healing = immortality, which may not work for others, but it is feasible in Wang Lan's hands. However, this process may take a long time, and before truly becoming immortal, Wang Lan needs to survive first
Therefore, Wang Lan and Huang Feilong have always been at their beck and call, even if they are in the midst of an intimate moment with their wives, they often hastily pull up their pants and leave without a second thought
This wound is very small, so the healing process is quite fast, and the consumption of star power is also minimal, roughly around one-tenth. ... And this is just the self-healing of Bronze 1; if the self-healing were upgraded to Silver or even the subsequent Gold level...
Alright! Huang Feilong was also unceremonious, smiling as he jumped onto the ring, one hand behind his back and the other placed on his chest, come at me.
Therefore, although Wang Lan knew that learning swordsmanship before awakening as a Star Warrior was of little use, he still had to learn it. However, now, with just a few skill points invested, Wang Lan's swordsmanship instantly advanced beyond the beginner stage to mastery.
One can either become a bodyguard for others or work as a personal trainer. Clearly, being a personal trainer is more respectable. After all, trainers are referred to as masters or teachers.
Starting tomorrow, summer vacation begins... Wang Lan does not possess the arrogance of a wealthy heir; he speaks to others in a friendly and courteous manner. This is also why Huang Feilong cherishes this job so much
Today I will not wear protective gear, as it affects my mobility
Even without having tested with a knife, Wang Lan possesses this feeling. A swordsman does not need to hold a knife all day; even when unarmed, he knows the extent of his own strength.
All these part-time jobs must be arranged behind Wang Lan, as they can only be undertaken with Wang Lan's permission. If Wang Lan does not allow it, either Huang Feilong must give up his monthly salary of 70,000 and resign, or he must wholeheartedly serve as his personal trainer
Master Huang, whose name is Huang Feilong, is Wang Lan's personal trainer and a Stellar Realm Star Warrior
During the imperial era, the status of star warriors fluctuated, yet most star warriors held a position above ordinary people. Since the end of the imperial era by the Yu Kingdom two hundred years ago, the principle of national unity and equality among the people has been advocated, asserting that no citizen of the state can be superior to others.
If one cannot master the essence of combat skills, Wang Lan would certainly not expend great effort. However, swordsmanship is an indispensable skill for star warriors, with nearly 90% of star warriors using swords.
Under normal circumstances, a wound heals by first forming a scab, which eventually falls off. However, with the ability of self-healing, the wound does not even form a scar, and quickly becomes smooth and as good as new, leaving no trace behind
When it comes to oneself, if it's not an active skill, then forget it; it's actually self-healing. Am I not capable of enduring?
But now, Wang Lan not only wants to evade punches and kicks, he wants to take the offensive
Listen, it is heart-wrenching and tearful
This scene startled Wang Lan greatly, and it was not until he looked up and saw that the self-healing skill had transformed into an active skill that he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Wait a minute, can a passive skill turn into an active skill? This is different from the game settings
"Let's start with free fighting," Wang Lan said as he took off his clothes, revealing a fitted elastic short-sleeve shirt underneath.
Huang Feilong is Wang Lan's dedicated personal trainer, but Wang Lan is aware that he has taken on at least five other individuals and has also opened a small martial arts school to charge tuition and teach students
In a cheerful mood, Wang Lan took out her phone and dialed the number, "Master Huang, are you free right now?"
That feeling is quite marvelous; in the terminology of martial arts novels, it can be described as an epiphany. It is as if something that was previously difficult to understand and comprehend suddenly becomes clear in an instant
Thus, for many star warriors, there are only two destinations: one is the military, and the other is the pioneering legion
The next level is Stellar Glory, where the stars within the Star Palace shine brightly like the sun and moon. Above that are the Nebula, the Galaxy, and the Sea of Stars. As for what lies beyond that level, Wang Lan does not know.
An ordinary person can sustain themselves with a monthly income of seven to eight thousand, allowing them to sing and buy clothes. However, for a star warrior, a monthly food expense of less than ten thousand can only be described as living in dire straits.
Wang Lan's mental focus is concentrated on the new bronze skill, "Consume star power to recover from one's own injuries"
Compared to ordinary citizens, Star Warriors do not have any advantages in their positions. They lack both educational qualifications and technical skills. Moreover, even if they perform the same jobs as ordinary people, their income is insufficient to sustain the livelihood of a Star Warrior
Compared to basic skills, star martial arts techniques are the foundation of a star martial artist
To emerge from countless battles with so many scars and still retain full use of one's limbs is undoubtedly the mark of a valiant warrior. Who dares to call him cowardly? Who dares to label him a weakling? When the clothes are shed, if you can bear such scars and still live, I respect you as a true hero
At that time, I will be Wolverine... No, Wolverine is trash; it must be Deadpool... Also trash. In the future, I will be the Goddess of Death, the true immortal.
In the past, Wang Lan exerted the least effort in knife techniques, and his personal trainer also mentioned that true close-combat knife techniques are those used in actual combat. He was unable to impart the essence of these techniques to Wang Lan. If Wang Lan were to truly engage in killing in real combat, he would also face execution.
Why? The knife is simple and practical, and it is quick to learn
However, for the majority of star warriors who are in the middle tier and will never have the opportunity to advance to a higher level in this lifetime, this is a coveted position that makes their eyes green with envy
The introduction remains simple and straightforward
Star warriors will receive national subsidies and benefits, but they will absolutely not have privileges. The benefits and subsidies are entirely linked to their strength. The star warrior group, the Starry Ones, belongs to the lower tier, while the Starry Glories are just slightly higher than the Starry Ones. Relying solely on national subsidies is simply insufficient to make a living
