Chapter 159 Dual Talents, Mechanical Heart
When he said this, tears filled Yuan Hecheng's eyes.
Lu Heng was a little moved, and finally understood why he was so anxious.
How could a father not be anxious when he learned that his ten-year-old daughter had been drafted into the abyss battlefield?
Lu Heng frowned and recalled, trying to recall information about Yuan Hecheng's daughter.
Yuan Hecheng was a very famous tempering master in later generations, and he was ranked among the best in Daxia.
There was a lot of news about Yuan Hecheng in later generations, but Lu Heng recalled it and found no information about his daughter.
Perhaps out of the desire to protect his daughter, he did not let her appear in the media news.
It may also be another case, his daughter may have died in the abyss battlefield.
The rules for recruiting superpowers in the Abyss battlefield are whether the superpowers are suitable, and there is no age limit.
Moreover, Lu Heng suspected that the latter was more likely.
Because in his previous life, Yuan Hecheng became a famous tempering master one year after the abyss fell.
It is now the seventh month since the Abyss has descended, and there are still five months left before he becomes a famous quencher.
As a profession of Tempering Master, as long as it is recognized by the Tempering Fort, its value will skyrocket and it will be sought after by capital. It does not take as long as five months.
In Yuan Hecheng's previous life, he only came to prominence a year after the abyss fell.
In other words, if he did not intervene in this matter, Yuan Hecheng would remain unknown for the next five months.
Maybe he was depressed for a few months because of his daughter's death.
Of course, these are all Lu Heng's guesses. What exactly happened in his previous life is not certain.
After thinking carefully, Lu Heng asked: "If I give you 10 million, what are you going to do?"
Yuan Hecheng saw hope and said quickly: "As long as you give me 10 million, I am willing to sign a contract of sale, either fifteen or twenty years."
Lu Heng asked again: "I mean, if you get 10 million, what are you going to buy with it? Will you buy skill cores?"
Yuan Hecheng nodded quickly: "Yes, I want to buy skill cores for my daughter, and buy a few more life-saving skill cores. I just want her to come out of the abyss battlefield alive."
actually.
There's something strange about this.
There is indeed no age limit for recruiting superpowers in the Abyss battlefield, but the recruitment rules have rules for combat power.
The lower the combat power, the lower the chance of being recruited, so life-type superpowers will basically not be recruited.
According to the recruitment rules of the abyss battlefield, only those who have reached a certain level of combat power will be recruited.
However, Yuan Hecheng's daughter is only ten years old. What caused her to be recruited into the Abyss Battlefield?
This question is difficult to ask.
Lu Heng thought for a moment and asked: "How long is the countdown to recruitment?"
"There are two days left... no, only one and a half days left." Yuan Hecheng remembered halfway through that it was already afternoon and more than half of today had passed.
When Lu Heng heard this time, he frowned and said, "Even if I give you 10 million now, you won't have enough time to buy the right skill core."
Yuan Hecheng sighed and said: "I have no other choice but to buy what I have."
In so many days, Lu Heng was the first person willing to listen to what he had to say.
Therefore, he regarded Lu Heng as the last straw, with hope shining in his eyes: "Mr. Lu, you don't need ten million, eight million will do. I am willing to sign a twenty-year contract of betrayal, and I can do anything you want." .”
Lu Heng thought for a while and said: "I can sign you, no problem for ten million. However, you need to be my quenching assistant. I can handle business orders for you with a quenching level of 3 or below. In addition, now you can It’s probably too late to buy skill cores. I’ll ask my assistant to bring over the list of cores later. If there are any suitable ones on the list, you can use them first.”
Yuan Hecheng didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly. He almost wanted to kneel down: "Thank you, Mr. Lu, thank you, Mr. Lu."
This time.
Lin Zeyu pushed the door open and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. The manager said you are here. Why are you so busy? Can you leave now?"
Lu Heng waved and said: "Just in time, you can ask someone to sign a tempering engineer contract, and the term will be ten years. The contract will be paid 10 million in advance, and someone will bring over the list of skill crystal cores."
Lin Zeyu blinked, pointed at Yuan Hecheng and asked: "Are you signing him?"
Yuan Hecheng quickly stood up and bowed to Lin Zeyu: "Boss, my name is Yuan Hecheng, and I am a tempering master."
Tempering masters are not very popular nowadays, and Lin Zeyu can't see anything special about Yuan Hecheng.
What's more important is that Yuan Hecheng has never entered the Quenching Fort and has not taken an assessment. How come he has reached the signing step directly?
Lin Zeyu blinked and asked, "Don't you need to take an assessment?"
When Yuan Hecheng heard that there was going to be an assessment, his heart clenched again.
Although he was confident, he was also afraid of what might happen.
If he failed in the assessment and the negotiated contract fell through, he would be ready to die.
After all, this was a gamble with his daughter's life. Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance of failing the assessment, he would not dare to gamble.
Lu Heng waved his hand and said, "No, just do as I say and hurry up."
Lin Zeyu didn't ask any more questions and agreed: "That's okay, I'll have someone do it."
As he said that, he turned around and went out to ask someone to do something.
The company is very efficient and has ready-made contracts. Just change the term and amount.
Yuan Hecheng signed the contract and saw Lin Zeyu stamped the company's seal, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.
Lu Heng then said: "Lao Yuan, is it okay to call you this?"
"Okay, okay, Mr. Lu is too polite." Yuan Hecheng quickly nodded in agreement.
"We have some skill cores on hand. If there are suitable ones, you can use them first. However, you have to bring your daughter here and choose the appropriate skills according to her talents." Lu Heng handed over the list of skill cores. He looked.
"Okay, I'll go back and bring her here right now. Are you here?" Yuan Hecheng has now signed a contract, but he doesn't know yet whether he has the skill core suitable for his daughter.
If you don't have a suitable skill core, you have to buy it separately. In that case, you may not have enough time.
After all, there is only one and a half days left in the countdown to recruitment.
……
An hour later, Yuan Hecheng came over with a little girl.
The little girl looks very cute and cute, and also very well-behaved and sensible.
When he saw Lin Zeyu at the door, Yuan Hecheng hurriedly said: "Yao Yao, call someone quickly. Is this Uncle Lin... or should I call you brother?"
Lin Zeyu stared and said, "Am I that old?"
"Then call him Brother Lin." Yuan Hecheng quickly agreed.
Yuan Yaoyao was a little shy, she pursed her lips and smiled and shrank back, and then she called out quietly.
After sitting down, Lu Heng looked at the little girl and felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.
It is certain that he is not a person with peak abilities in future generations, because he has never heard of a person with peak abilities at such a young age in his previous life.
"What talent have you awakened?" Lu Heng asked.
"Well..."
Yuan Yaoyao put her hands on her knees, picked at her nails, and squeaked twice before replying: "Metal ion reduction."
When Lu Heng heard about this talent, he was a little confused and glanced at Su Muyu next to him. Su Muyu understood, got up and went out. After a while, she came in with a glass of blue liquid: "Copper sulfate solution."
Lu Heng pushed the cup of blue solution over and said, "Is it okay?"
Yuan Yaoyao didn't speak. She slowly stretched out her hand and put her right index finger into the copper sulfate solution.
After about ten seconds, she pulled out her finger, and her finger was suddenly covered with a layer of purple-red metal.
This talent is very special and will be of great value in the field of scientific research, but it does not reflect much combat effectiveness.
Lu Heng then asked: "Can you control this ability? Restore it when you need it, and don't react when you don't need it."
Yuan Yaoyao shook her head: "When you touch the water, your hands will be stained with a layer of something."
She doesn't like this ability very much.
As long as it comes into contact with water, a layer of metal will be stained on the skin.
The concentration of the copper sulfate solution does not need to be so high, ordinary tap water will react.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Because there are trace amounts of metal ions in tap water, they will be reduced by her ability and adhere to the skin.
Although the amount is small, it will still be felt when accumulated.
It's okay if it gets on your hands, but the worst part is taking a shower.
Lu Heng saw her inner thoughts from her expression, smiled and said: "When you get higher in level, you can slowly learn to control this ability, and you can not react when you don't need it."
Yuan Yaoyao felt better immediately after hearing that she could control this ability in the future.
Lu Heng then asked: "Are there any other talents or abilities?"
"No...no more." Yuan Yaoyao shook her head, lowering her head.
"Are you sure?" Lu Heng asked again.
Yuan Yaoyao lowered her head and nodded, but Lu Heng felt that she was not telling the truth.
Because just one [Metal Ion Reduction] can't reflect much combat effectiveness.
In addition, at her current age, her physical fitness is very weak and her level is low. Based on the recruitment pattern of the abyss battlefield, it is unlikely that she will be recruited.
Then, there is only one possibility, either she was not recruited, or she has hidden a talent that is very useful in combat.
Lu Heng then asked: "How much time is left in your countdown? Read out the number."
Yuan Yaoyao read out a set of numbers: "1 day, 8 hours, 12 minutes, 19 seconds, 18 seconds, 17 seconds..."
Lu Heng checked the time a little, and the countdown happened to be at twelve o'clock tomorrow night.
There is no problem with the countdown. This little girl will not keep this countdown in mind just to lie.
Moreover, since this was her first time being drafted, she probably couldn't give an accurate countdown number.
That said, she was indeed drafted.
Then there is only one last possibility left. She is hiding a certain talent with powerful combat power.
Lu Heng put on a serious tone and said, "You lied."
As soon as these words came out.
Yuan Yaoyao froze, and Yuan Hecheng on the side looked puzzled and defended his daughter: "Mr. Lu, Yaoyao is very sensible and well-behaved."
Lu Heng stared at the little girl's expression, but her head lowered lower and lower.
"There is only more than one day left in the countdown, and the survival rate of the abyss battlefield recruitment is less than 30%. In other words, after the countdown is over, there is a 70% chance that you will not be able to come back, and you will not be able to see your father in the future. Are you sure you want to continue? Lying? ”
Yuan Yaoyao's body began to tremble, she pursed her lips and almost shed tears.
"Mr. Lu, Yaoyao is very sensible and she won't lie." Yuan Hecheng continued to defend his daughter.
Lu Heng raised his hand to interrupt him and said, "Listen to her."
Yuan Yaoyao wiped her tears with her hands, nodded and admitted: "There is another talent in the data, but I think I may be mentally ill."
Yuan Hecheng didn't know about this, and she never thought that her daughter would lie to him: "What's going on?"
Initial dual talents are very rare, it can be said that they are one in a million.
Lu Heng asked: "What is the other talent?"
Yuan Yaoyao grabbed her skirt with both hands and answered after a while: "Mechanical Heart, I can hear the refrigerator and rice cooker at home talking. I must also be mentally ill."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Hecheng's expression changed and he helped explain: "Yao Yao's mother died due to mental illness, so..."
When Lu Heng heard that it was the talent of [Mechanical Heart], he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
This talent is very strange, just like what she described.
People with this talent are said to be able to hear machines speak. In their eyes, all machines are "alive".
Of course, if you don’t understand this talent and just listen to the description, it does sound a lot like mental illness.
Lu Heng thought about it and explained: "The mechanical heart can indeed hear the machine talking. This is a normal situation, not a mental illness. Moreover, this ability is very strong, if used properly."
If he has the talent of [Mechanical Heart], it would not be surprising to be drafted.
The abyss battlefield recruits superpowers based on their combat power, talents, and skills.
Someone in a previous life proposed a theory that if the same superpower enters different abyss battlefields, its combat power rating will be different.
For example, this [Mechanical Heart], if you enter the Boneyard of the Evil God, the talent score will be very low because there are no mechanical units there that can play the role of this talent.
On the contrary, if you are entering the cyber world, then fine, [Heart of Machinery] will take off directly, and the score will be very high.
This theory has not been confirmed, but Lu Heng believes that this theory has some truth.
According to this theory, Yuan Yaoyao will most likely be recruited into a world where mechanical units exist.
If it were a world without machines, her talent score would be very low, and she would not be able to reach the score she was drafted for.
Therefore, the abyss battlefield where she is recruited can only be a world with more mechanical units.
Moreover, according to the news that Yuan Hecheng had a daughter in his previous life, Yuan Yaoyao probably did not return alive in his previous life.
After all, she is just a ten-year-old girl, and without other life-saving skills, it is indeed difficult to survive in the abyss world.
When Su Muyu saw this little girl, she felt very pitiful and proactively said, "Let's help her."
Lu Heng picked up the core list and said, "Let's see if there are any suitable skill cores. By the way, how many skill slots are there?"
Yuan Yaoyao held out three fingers: "Three."
"You didn't lie this time, right?" Lu Heng teased.
"I'm not lying. I...I just..." Yuan Yaoyao puffed up her cheeks and wanted to defend herself.
"Brother Lu is joking with you, be good." Yuan Hecheng hurriedly started flipping through the crystal core list.
Now he just wants to prepare a few more life-saving skills for his daughter. He doesn't ask for anything but that his daughter can come back from the abyss alive.
