Akiba Castle.
Bus stop.
When Lu Yuan looked at the transparent panel that appeared in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned.
“Even the wound I accidentally fell on just now can be recovered in advance?”
Is this the paradox of reverse effect and cause?
Lu Yuan glanced at his father and mother who were waiting for the bus, and still resisted the idea of using his talent immediately.
There are many people outside, so it is not too late to use [Returning Effects to Causes] when you get home.
It didn’t take long.
A sea-blue smart-driving unmanned bus slowly stopped at a stop on the roadside.
From the outside.
This vehicle is no different than a 21st century bus.
Nothing but the mottled paint, the small advertising paper plastered all over the seats, and the squeaking sound the vehicle makes when driving.
Everyone is telling Lu Yuan that the age of this car is probably older than his age.
The bus compartment was very empty, with only four or five passengers.
Without exception, these passengers were all dressed in shabby clothes and their faces were sallow and numb. At a glance, it was obvious that they were residents living in suburban neighborhoods.
Lu Yuan put in coins and got on the bus, casually found a seat by the window and sat down.
When the unmanned bus entered the road, he looked at the rapidly receding scenery outside the window, and a large number of memories about this world began to appear in his mind.
According to the information he has come into contact with after living in this world for sixteen years.
The Akiye City where he is currently located is one of the six satellite cities affiliated with Xinghua City.
This city is mainly used to accommodate various low-end industrial factories, as well as a large number of low-level workers and unemployed people. Its technological level is at least several centuries behind its contemporaries.
This also means.
A newborn baby born in Akiye City is considered a hell start, so you can immediately consider restarting it.
"To make matters worse, I also awakened the high-grade spiritual roots."
Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh as he recalled the records about spiritual roots in his mind.
According to the Star Alliance's classification of spiritual root quality.
All spiritual roots can be roughly divided into five types: low-grade, medium-grade, top-grade, top-grade, and heavenly spiritual roots.
The higher the quality of the spiritual root, the stronger the cultivation talent, but the demand for spiritual energy will also reach an incredible level.
But poor in literature and rich in military.
If he was born in one of those great spiritual stars with abundant spiritual energy, he might be able to achieve some success.
But Hulao Star is extremely lacking in spiritual energy, and is no different from a Death Star.
in this case.
It is simply harder for Lu Yuan to get enough spiritual stones for cultivation than to reach the sky.
Especially for a poor family like him who comes from the bottom.
Study hard, pass the military academy in the future, join the Star Guard Reserves, and strive to become a qualified warrior is the only way out.
"Warriors, mecha masters, psychics, immortal cultivators, spiritual masters... It seems that this world is more exciting than I imagined."
Lu Yuan said thoughtfully.
Although the Celestial Clan monopolizes 99% of spiritual energy and cultivation resources, life will find a way out.
What's more, the dark energy is spreading rapidly in all the worlds, and even this eight-star world cannot stay away.
Even if the Celestials try their best to block the entire world.
But the origin of darkness is everywhere, and can even penetrate directly into this world through the dark side of human nature.
Quietly.
It can corrupt countless racial creatures into dark alien races!
No matter how powerful the Celestials are, how can they single-handedly fight against the origin of darkness that spreads like a virus?
They had to let go of their confinement and were forced to give up some of their interests and resources to allow all races in the universe to embark on the path of cultivation again.
While chaos brings death and despair, it also brings a ladder of advancement to countless lower-class races.
This world that was originally a stagnant water once again glowed with vitality, and a large number of cultivation systems and promotion paths were developed.
The cheapest and most suitable person to use as cannon fodder is the warrior.
Lu Yuan carefully sorted out the information in his mind and had a general understanding of the world.
The Celestial God Clan strictly guards against immortal cultivators, and will never allow any casual cultivators to appear except for a small number of cultivators who have received certificates of surrender.
But the restrictions on warriors are much looser.
The Star Alliance, dominated by the Celestial Clan, not only did not ban warriors, but instead strongly recommended many people from poor backgrounds to choose this path.
After all, compared to other cultivation systems.
The warrior has low investment and quick results. It is undoubtedly the most cost-effective and the most popular consumable for the Astra Militarum.
Of course.
Not all warriors are cannon fodder.
If someone can fight his way out of the battlefield, he can still stand out.
Those martial saints and martial gods who are regarded as faiths by countless people have taken this path.
There are two main ways for ordinary people to become warriors.
The first is to pass the military academy and become a reserve member of the Astra Militarum, where you can get a lot of resources and combat skills for free.
The second option is to pay high tuition fees and join forces such as martial arts schools in exchange for the combat skills and techniques needed to become a warrior.
It's just that the latter's charges are extremely expensive and have exceeded the limit that the people at the bottom can bear.
In contrast.
The first method is undoubtedly the only hope for the bottom layer jump.
That’s why Father Lu is so concerned about Lu Yuan being expelled from school.
When Lu Yuan was immersed in his thoughts, time flew by.
"Dear passengers, we have arrived at the Suburban Community Station. Please be careful when opening the door. Passengers who are getting off please get off through the back door."
An hour later.
As the voice announcement sounded, the unmanned bus slowly stopped at the platform.
Lu Yuan and Lu Shan and his wife stepped off the bus, and a dirty and dilapidated neighborhood suddenly came into view.
Look around.
This neighborhood is composed of low and simple tube buildings and a large number of old buildings.
But even the slums are divided into three, six or nine levels.
The best location is on the outskirts of the block. Not only does it have plenty of sunshine, but it also has newly built and improved housing that the government has built for the city's appearance.
Both the living environment and living conditions are more comfortable than other places.
Only the migrant workers working in Akiye City can afford it.
But the further you go inside, the more dilapidated the surrounding buildings become and the dirtier and messier the environment becomes.
Moreover, most of the sunlight is blocked by the surrounding high-rise buildings, making the light appear very dim.
Inside the block.
The buildings are very close to each other. There is only a narrow and dark corridor separating the two adjacent buildings.
If your arms are longer, you can reach the opposite window with just one stretch of your hand, so these buildings are also called handshake buildings by many people.
Intricate alleys and passages connect countless handshake buildings together to form this chaotic and dilapidated neighborhood.
Many three- and four-year-old children are running and playing in the aisles. Occasionally they pick up an old football and burst into innocent and hearty laughter.
There are also some middle-aged women who are out of shape and bloated, squatting at the door to choose vegetables, and pouring domestic sewage into the roadside ditch.
There are piles of garbage and sewage flowing across the river.
It is cold and humid, with no sunshine all day long.
This is where Lu Yuan's family lives.
It turns out that Lu Shan and his wife both worked in a machinery factory.
Although the salary is not much, the job is stable enough to live in the outer area of Akiye City.
However, after Lu Yuan was born, Lu Shan emptied all his wealth just to buy the spiritual liquid needed to maintain his life. In the end, I owed a lot of debt and had to move my family to this place.
When Lu Yuan and the others walked through the dark and damp paths, they finally came to a dilapidated building that had been in disrepair.
Lu Yuan walked into this building and took a few steps to the right. The first house was theirs.
The first floor is damp and dark, with no light, so the rent is the cheapest.
A 30-square-meter one-bedroom apartment only costs 400 star coins.
But every night when I go to bed, I can clearly hear the footsteps of all the residents going up and downstairs, coming in and out.
Lu Shan took out the key and opened the door, then pressed the light switch on the wall, and a soft light illuminated the dark room.
The layout of the room can be seen at a glance.
Lu Yuan raised his eyes and looked up.
This house is very simple, with only a few simple second-hand furniture.
The originally narrow and cramped living room was divided into two halves by a wooden board.
Outside is a dining area, and inside there is a sofa where Lu Shan and his wife sleep.
The only room is Lu Yuan's bedroom.
"If it weren't for me, my parents wouldn't have such a difficult life..."
Lu Yuan watched all this silently, feeling very uncomfortable.
Although he has gone through many reincarnations and his Taoist heart has become extremely tough, he doesn't like to owe favors.
In particular, this kind of nurturing kindness that gave everything without asking for anything in return made him feel very complicated.
"I must become a warrior or a mecha master as soon as possible. Only in this way can I change my destiny and let my parents live a good life."
Lu Yuan said to himself in his heart.
As for the cultivators, they are not within his consideration for the time being.
In the absence of sufficient resources.
Even if he had the training skills and experience from his previous life, it would be difficult for him to embark on this path.
If you forcibly embark on the path of spiritual practice, not only will your body's potential be severely overstretched, but it will also lead to death.
“Fortunately, Hulao Star is far away from the central star field and is not within the radiation range of the Covenant forces. Its management is very backward and chaotic.”
“Otherwise, I would have been born with high-grade spiritual roots. , will be strangled in the cradle."
Lu Yuan said helplessly.
"The team is rushing to catch up on the goods during this period. I'll go back to work first."
Lu Shan picked up the water cup and drank a few sips of it, then hurried out.
"Ayuan, you go and have a rest first. Mom will take half a day off today and cook your favorite braised pork in the evening."
Seeing that Lu Yuan was taciturn along the way, Mother Lu thought he was He had not yet recovered from the heavy blow of dropping out of school, so he immediately comforted her softly.
"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine, don't be too tired."
Lu Yuan responded and returned to his bedroom.
Lock the door to make sure you won’t be disturbed.
He then concentrated and called up the virtual panel that only he could see.
[Talent: Turning results into causes]
[Number of future results that can be advanced: 1/1]
[Results that have been advanced: 0]
[Achievements that can be advanced: head injury recovery, cooking skills, basic fighting skills, junior high school knowledge, mechanical master, mecha proficiency...]
[Already Mastery ability: 0】
“It’s just a skin injury on my head, and it will heal in two days.”
“As for warriors, a certain amount of money needs to be invested in the early stage, which is still a bit far away for me who is penniless. .”
"The top priority is to master mecha knowledge as soon as possible. Even if you become a mecha maintenance apprentice, you can have a stable source of income."
Looking at the column of prepayable results, Lu Yuan thought for a moment and made a decisive choice Mastered the mecha proficiency.
The next moment.
Lu Yuan was in a daze, and countless knowledge and information about mechas suddenly emerged in his mind.
This knowledge is as if it is innate.
Not long after it appeared, it was firmly imprinted in the depths of his mind and he would never forget it again.
It didn’t take long.
After Lu Yuan took in everything, he slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath.
Although from the outside, he looks the same as before.
But when he turned around and saw a mini mecha model placed on the desk, the internal structure and operating principles of this mecha model suddenly emerged in his mind.
He could easily see the flaws and loopholes in this mecha model without even thinking about it, and he knew how to make it more perfect.
It can be said.
In his eyes now, even a real mecha is just made up of thousands of parts.
“With the mecha knowledge I have now, I can crush those mecha maintainers with decades of experience, and I can easily find a job with a monthly salary of over 10,000 yuan.”
“ If you have enough materials, you can even build a Zero Mecha by yourself.”
Lu Yuan thought to himself.
Just like the realm of warriors, mechas also have levels.
According to the strength of their combat power, mechas are divided into Type Zero, and Levels 1 to 9.
Among them, Type Zero is the weakest and is a basic mecha.
As for the ninth-level mecha, it is comparable to the gods and possesses powerful power that can destroy the world.
But even the most basic Type Zero mecha can easily split mountains and rocks, defeating one against a hundred.
Just as he was thinking about the future, his vision suddenly turned black, and a sharp pain like needles shot through his body.
"No, it's time for me to take the energy potion."
Blue veins popped out on Lu Yuan's forehead. He gritted his teeth and forced himself up, and took out a potion from the drawer.
This potion is like oral liquid, with some kind of green liquid flowing in the glass bottle.
He had just seen this green potion, and every cell in his body felt an uncontrollable desire.
It is like a desert that has been deserted for a long time and is in urgent need of moisture from rain.
Lu Yuanlai didn't think much, he immediately opened the cork and poured all the green liquid into his mouth.
After all the liquid was absorbed, the unbearable hunger in Lu Yuan's body weakened slightly.
“I am also a high-grade spiritual root, but I never expected that I would live in such poverty.”
A self-deprecating smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face.
This spiritual liquid is a basic energy potion developed by the Star Alliance. It contains a trace of spiritual grass essence and can improve the warrior's training speed or physical recovery ability.
But the price is extremely expensive, one costs 20,000 star coins.
Aura is like water, and monks are like fish.
On this Hulao star that lacks spiritual energy.
Lu Yuan could only maintain normal vital signs by taking basic energy potions and nourishing his spiritual roots.
Otherwise he will be like a dehydrated fish, dying of thirst!
“I take a basic energy potion every month. After one year, it will be 240,000 star coins.”
“But even if my parents work overtime every day, two people In total, the annual salary is only about 100,000 yuan.”
“In order to make up for the shortfall in purchasing energy potions, our family has already incurred millions in debt!”
Lu Yuan clenched his fists, feeling very uncomfortable.
A true dragon cannot be raised in shallow water.
For a world lacking spiritual energy, high-grade spiritual roots are a curse.
It's like throwing a baby shark into a pool of water that is about to dry up. Even if it survives, its body will become very deformed.
And only by becoming a mecha master as soon as possible and earning enough training resources can he completely change his destiny! (End of chapter)
