On the fourth day of his stay at Grandpa Zhang's house, the delivery man knocked on the front door.
Roddy went out to sign for the delivery. Naturally, he used the ID that he had found online. The two Earthbreaker gaming helmets were not big. After they were folded, they looked like two small cardboard boxes. Grandpa Zhang thought that Roddy had bought some outdoor equipment and did not suspect anything. On the other hand, Roddy had bought a lot of daily necessities for him. The old man was in a good mood.
After returning to his room, Roddy locked the door and placed the two heavy packages on the floor. From the corner of his eye, he saw that Kardashian had not moved an inch in front of the computer.
Roddy felt that she had been bewitched for the past few days. At first, it was mathematics, physics and chemistry textbooks. Then, it was English dictionaries, French dictionaries, and other obscure tomes. If not for China's piracy industry, these PDFs would have cost at least tens of thousands. Now, he turned his head to look and realized that Kardashian was probably reading some foreign journals. He could barely read the complicated words on them, let alone understand them.
He knew that she was serious about her studies, so he did not ask for her help. After unpacking the packages, he assembled the components of the gaming helmets and started modifying the chips. Because he did not log into the account with his ID, Roddy had to make some 'modifications' to fool the system. This kind of 'black account' was actually 'illegal' in Earthbreaker because the game company did not support the buying and selling of game accounts. However, how could such a thing be completely banned? Using the 'helmet component failure' as an excuse to prevent certain data from being uploaded, even the quantum computer could not determine if it was a 'buying and selling account' or if there was a problem with the helmet. Moreover, this kind of behavior brought prosperity to the market and certain industries. Therefore, Earthbreaker decided to turn a blind eye to it. As long as one did not cheat, they could not be bothered with them.
After all, Earthbreaker did not have servers in every continent. It was purely handled by the quantum computer in England. Some things that needed to be blurred had to be blurred.
Once the two helmets were ready, Roddy arranged the wiring. The limited edition 'gaming cabin' was more comfortable to use. However, this type of helmet could be electrically stimulated to achieve a tactile transfer effect. Because the inductive signal was directly transmitted to the brain, one only needed to lie down to experience the 'holographic view' of the game.
"Sister, everything is ready."
Roddy put down the helmet and said softly.
Kardashian put down the mouse. When she turned around, she still had a shocked expression on her face. Roddy tilted his head and saw a string of English words written on it. He could only recognize the words' particle physics', 'quantum', and 'standard model'. He guessed that it was something related to quantum mechanics.
Truth be told, Rody had read books like 'History of Quantum Mechanics' before, but they were just stories. He could roughly understand the concept of 'Schrödinger's cat', but he was still far from being qualified to study the meaning of 'quantum'.
Now, Roddy really felt the difference in IQ between him and Kardashian.
However, Roddy thought that he had cut off those thoughts, so he did not have too many emotional fluctuations. He quietly connected the power and said, "Sister, lie down and put it on, and you can log in."
However, Kardashian did not respond. Instead, she looked straight at him and suddenly said, "Roddy, if I want to become … stronger, will you help me?"
She actually did not want to make this request to Roddy because if she did, it might become a 'deal' like the magic agreement between her father and Roddy. However, after thinking about it, Kardashian felt that she was different from her father … After all these years, she knew where her level was. There were many people in the clan who were stronger than her. She would not be the one to lead the Frost Dragon Race in the future. From all aspects of the clan, she could only be regarded as the last in the first echelon. As for "Demigod", it was a goal that she could never reach in this lifetime.
Under such circumstances, the clan had long given up on nurturing Kardashian. Even she herself had given up on this idea.
However, after accepting these complicated knowledge and theories, Kardashian really opened the door to a whole new world. Although she understood the theories, she needed a huge amount of resources as a cornerstone to put them into practice and become "strong". At the same time, these theories were secrets that the other Dragons could not know. After thinking about it, Kardashian realized that the only help she could get stronger seemed to be Roddy …
Other than Roddy, she did not think that any other Dragons could help her in this aspect.
In other words, Kardashian no longer saw Roddy as the "Prime Minister of some human country", but as someone who could help each other. A partner who gave selflessly.
But was this feeling just wishful thinking? She was both eager and afraid of this answer. At this moment, she finally could not hold it in and asked impulsively.
Her words were without rhyme or reason, but Roddy vaguely realized something in his heart. He put the helmet aside, walked to her side and sat down. "Sister, are you talking about becoming a" Demigod "? Or even higher? "
Kardashian nodded hesitantly. She had actually blurred the concept of "Demigod". At this moment, the mind of this Dragons had been filled with countless formulas, theorems, and theories. The angle of understanding the world made her realize that she, or the entire Dragons in her impression, was a frog at the bottom of a well.
Roddy did not hesitate and answered happily, "Yes, of course I'm willing."
But Kardashian's expression did not change. She only continued to say, "I can't continue to move forward with just my own strength. That's why I want to ask you this question —"
"Is Efta's strength enough to help you?"
Kardashian's gaze trembled. She did not expect Roddy to answer so directly. There seemed to be a sudden surge of warmth in her heart. But she was still afraid that all this was fake. She nodded, then shook her head. "To reach a higher realm, it's not just about broadening your horizons, passing on knowledge, and changing your way of thinking. More importantly, it's about understanding the laws of the world."
"I don't know if Efta's strength is enough, but if you want to break through, the more resources you have, the better."
She only made a request, but did not say what she would give in return. If this was a negotiation, it would mean that she was being "arrogant." But she did not treat all of this as a "negotiation" with Roddy. This was not a deal, but more like an interrogation of her own heart.
I definitely did not, and will not use him!
Kardashian recalled Roddy's words, "Fate, but not fate." She could actually understand Mandarin now, so she understood that Roddy was not as calm as he appeared. Therefore, her eyes were fixed on Roddy, but her face still maintained a calm expression, as if she did not care about the answer …
But Roddy did not hesitate at all. He nodded and said, "Efta is indeed a little small now, but … what about the entire Kingdom of Karen? What about Tasman, the Orcs, and even the countries in the east combined? Or the other vast continents on the other side of the ocean … Will all of them combined be enough? "
These words made Kardashian choke. She suddenly felt that she could not speak. After a few seconds, she put on an expression of "disbelief" and looked away. She said in a low voice, "Since when did you learn to paint a big picture … You speak so confidently. Do you think I'm a ten-year-old girl?"
"Efta has been accumulating strength. Sister, it's not like you can't see what I want to do. Trains, planes, roads, trucks, and even fleets. I spent so much effort just because I think these things are fun? "
This was the first time that Roddy had revealed his hidden ambition in front of outsiders. Kardashian's pupils shrank. Yes, she had stayed in Elsen City for so long. Did she really think that this guy was a "small rich" character?
After thinking this through, she realized that Roddy's words were specifically for her to hear. It could also be said that it was the most irrefutable response to her "unreasonable request"!
The emotions that had been suppressed just now suddenly surged up because she realized that she had made the right bet. This guy in front of her also did not treat her as an outsider. And he even said "fate, but not fate"! This guy was just saying what he hated!
The joy in her heart could not be stopped, but Kardashian still pretended to be angry. She got up and punched Roddy. "You still ask me if it's fun? You really have the guts now. You don't take me, your sister, seriously, do you? "
Roddy held his head and begged for mercy. But in fact, the punches really did not have much force on his body. He felt a lot more comfortable after the two punches.
He lowered his head and secretly broke out in cold sweat. Kardashian's words were indeed a test for him. If he answered half a sentence wrong, he might not be able to be friends in the future. Fortunately, Roddy had some mental preparation in advance, so he "successfully passed". But when he asked himself, he found that he still had some "unrealistic" fantasies … He did not know if she had noticed …
The two of them played like this, but they were both very nervous. After a few punches, Kardashian remembered the business at hand. "By the way, can I log into the game?"
"Ah … Yes, I can log in."
Roddy rubbed his nose and pretended to look at the computer screen. At this time, Kardashian's face was flushed, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. The flirtatious look in her eyes made him lose the courage to look at her directly. He was afraid that he would have some impulse that he should not have. And Kardashian seemed to notice this. She coughed twice, picked up the helmet and sat on the bed. "Then what are you waiting for? Stop dawdling! "
She lay on the bed and did not care about anything else. Roddy had to come over and stick the neural feedback sensors connected to the helmet all over her body. When he reached the last one, he said with some difficulty, "Sister, this needs to be stuck on the position above the belly —"
"So troublesome?"
Kardashian did not think much. She directly reached out and pulled up the warm "long johns", revealing her white belly. Roddy did not expect her to be so straightforward. Even though he had experienced many "actual combat" with her, he was a little embarrassed at this time. After all, the thin waist and the exposed edge of her underwear were too tempting. Her white skin was as perfect as a warm jade — Stop!
Forcibly stopping the messy thoughts, Roddy stuck the sensors in the position according to the instruction manual. Then he turned around and grabbed his helmet. After skillfully putting it on, he laid down beside Kardashian.
The atmosphere in the room became a little subtle. Kardashian put her hands on her belly and whispered, "Then?"
"Press the start button, sister. I will contact you in the game."
"Okay, I will wait for you."
