"Study hard for me!"
She gripped the joystick and said in a serious tone, "I'm doing this for your own good. After you finish these questions, you won't want to fall in love anymore … No, I have to check my phone too. I have to delete all the bad things that hinder my studies …"
The joystick was pulled down, but it stopped abruptly in mid-air.
This was because her wrist was being held.
"Enough."
Huai Shi, who finally woke up from his long dream, raised his head, looked at her, and said word by word,
"There's no need to do these things anymore."
He seemed to be different from the past.
At the same time, after experiencing thousands of reincarnations and torments, Huai Shi, who had regained all his memories, had become completely different from the past.
His eyes had changed.
Even though they were as dark as before, there seemed to be a sharp edge brewing in them now. They became as firm as iron, dignified, and cold, making it impossible to look straight at them.
Then … he was quickly dumbfounded.
He had just woken up from a dream, and everything in the dream quickly dissipated and left him, leaving only a vague impression and outline. It seemed like such a thing happened, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
Instead, he felt a strong sense of confusion and bewilderment.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
Have I been tricked again?
If it weren't for the fact that his memories of traveling with Lily were still so clear, Huai Shi would almost suspect that something was wrong with him.
"You're awake?"
At some point in time, the figure in front of him had turned into a black flying bird. With an innocent expression, she quietly stuffed the phone that she had just taken out back into his pocket.
She pretended that nothing had happened and smiled calmly.
"Congratulations on passing the Utopia's trial!"
She flapped her wings vigorously and offered her blessings. "From now on, you're a member of the Utopia that everyone will recognize! Although you're an outsider, even those old farts in the Modern Realm won't treat you as an outsider … "
When she mentioned the trial, Huai Shi took out the Book of Destiny as if he had just woken up from a dream and began to flip through it quickly.
In just half a day, hundreds of pages of records appeared in the Book of Destiny.
They were all records of his life in the virtual simulation.
But what was unacceptable was that those records were simply too brief. Often, there were only two or three sentences, as if they were things left behind in his memory.
All that was left was the general outline, and the specific details had been completely forgotten.
"You forgot everything?"
He slapped his knees in grief and indignation. "I've worked so hard to level up so many times. How could I have forgotten all about it?"
"First of all, the Celestial Sphere Simulation is not an all-purpose learning machine. The main purpose is to let the trial taker see the direction of their life clearly. Otherwise, after one trial, wouldn't he become a completely different person? Being able to learn something from a fake simulation is already good enough. "
Crow shook his head helplessly. "Secondly, there are some things that you can't upgrade just by working hard. It depends on your talent, okay?
Could it be that you have never thought about how everything you do in there is going smoothly? How ridiculous is it that you have the right time, the right place, and the right people? “
There are some things that can't be improved just by working hard.
Within the limitations of the Myriad Celestial Sphere Simulation, Huai Shi's ability was simply like a cheat code, constantly improving without limit. How could he reach a level that he himself could achieve?
"If you ask me, you should be satisfied that I left you a little bit." Crow sighed. "You still have to thank that little girl for giving you her blessings. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving this little bit behind."
And Huai Shi silently lowered his head, carefully looking at the title page of the Book of Destiny.
Even if he had already prepared for it, he was still shocked by the progress of his skills at this moment. Even if they had rapidly shrunk after the simulation ended, the growth now was too frightening.
The few skills that he used the most now all shot up like rockets.
[Alchemy – Metal Study] LV9!
From the original level 4 to level 9 in an instant, it could be said that Huai Shi had graduated in an instant. LV9 was only one step away from LV10.
It could be said that most of the Alchemists who did not choose to specialize could not compare to Huai Shi's level. And the Alchemists who chose the same specialization as Huai Shi might rely on their own experience to barely surpass him.
But Huai Shi still had the soul ability of the Imprisoning Hand, as well as the assistance of the Alchemy Fire.
With these two bonuses, he could already be regarded as the limit of LV10 for ordinary people.
[Cello Performance LV17]!
He had risen two levels in an instant!
After surpassing LV10, it could be said that he had entered the realm of true geniuses. To be able to go further, it could only be said that he needed a lot of luck and a lot of time to search and work hard.
The further he went, the more difficult it was to go further.
It was like the difference between heaven and earth.
And to jump from LV15 to LV17 in an instant, even if Huai Shi knew that he had played the cello for dozens of lifetimes, it was still a little unbelievable.
This was all because he had relied on his Dripping Water Piercing Stone skill to forcefully burst his experience bar.
After reaching this level, Huai Shi estimated in his heart that if he did not count the group of old perverts in the Hell Music Association, then he could be regarded as one of the few Grandmaster-level characters in the present realm.
Unfortunately, it was only purely in terms of skills.
The classical music industry was not a place where cats and dogs with no background could mix in. Without qualifications, background, and the guidance of an orthodox master as an introducer, it was very difficult to make a living in the circle of aristocrats.
If it was a pianist, there might be a place for him to make a name for himself, but for a cello … Forget it, at most, he could just change to another accompaniment. Without you, the Huai Musician, would they not play Bach?
Today, Huai Shi's attention to fame and fortune had gradually faded. But what made him even happier was that his skills had improved.
There was nothing more wonderful than personally feeling one's own progress.
And [Swordsmanship · Performance Method], which was completely dependent on cello performance, also rose with the tide. As Huai Shi's cello skill improved, it would naturally rise as well.
— LV15!
Unless he was a natural swordsman who had killed countless people, was proficient in hundreds of weapons, and practiced hard four days a year, a genius who could enter such a level after middle age.
This was the real successor of the orchard gym. Although Huai Shi was just a slacker who had only taken half a month of trial classes, after reaching such an achievement, when he introduced himself as Elder Luo's disciple in the future, he was not afraid of embarrassing Elder Luo.
But the basic skills of drumming and Yu Step did not improve much.
It was still the same.
Hand-to-hand combat was still a shortcoming, and compared to that, it was even worse.
But this was something to be considered in the future.
Now, the most surprising discovery was … [Illegal Organization Operation] LV12!
"What the hell?"
Huai Shi was stunned, "How did this skill improve so much?"
If he remembered correctly, it seemed to be only at LV4 or LV5, at most at the level of a small criminal gang robbing a bank. But now at LV12, he was afraid that he could go to America to be a smuggler and a drug lord!
He was simply a born criminal boss.
If Huai Shi worked hard, he could even start from scratch in Africa, Australia, or the Middle East, and become a big boss in the underworld.
But what the f * ck is going on with such an outrageous growth?
"Why don't you ask yourself?"
Crow pointed at his Book of Destiny and sighed, "Even in a world without Ascendants, you were able to build your own base between the two forces of Rome and the Russian Federation. In such a hellish place, you almost established a country! I knew you idiot was born to be a criminal! Do you want us to work harder? "
"I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"
Huai Shi was flustered when he saw it.
Although, yes, the vague memory of working together with Senior Sister was indeed sentimental.
But … wasn't this all fake?!
In addition to these messy skills, even Death Premonition, a skill that hadn't been used for ten thousand years, seemed to have joined in the fun and become LV2.
He died thousands of times, tens of thousands of times.
But the improvement wasn't big, at most, the effect became a little stronger, and there was a small line of words behind it: "Small clues reveal the whole picture." It was no longer completely passive, but could let Huai Shi sometimes take the initiative to detect some details that could kill him.
The ability to survive went one step further.
And after such a long reincarnation, all the vague records in the Book of Destiny settled in one place, forming a new skill.
[False Wisdom]
There was no level, no room for growth and improvement.
As for the explanation of the skill, it was even more ambiguous: most of the time, you can make choices that aren't the worst.
It looked strange, and in fact, it was strange. It was subtly between useful and useless.
If he were to cut the fuse of a bomb, in the middle of the red, blue, and green lines, he would probably have a little more chance of not cutting the choice that would kill him on the spot.
It didn't affect the upper limit of luck, but slightly increased the lower limit.
It was better than nothing.
Regarding this, Huai Shi had already accepted it.
To be able to help Lily and obtain the 'birth of life', this trip was completely enough for him. Not to mention there were so many insights and growth along the way.
But —
Huai Shi lowered his head and looked at the blessing of [Affinity] in the Book of Destiny, but he couldn't help but fall into silence.
Recalling Lily's words when she said goodbye, his heart was in a mess, and he couldn't help but have a headache.
He didn't know how to respond.
Just as he was thinking and didn't know how to understand her words, he felt the phone in his pocket vibrate crazily.
It wasn't the number in the phone book, but an unknown caller.
But it was the same number that Lily had left for him.
He was stunned on the spot.
After a long time, he mustered up his courage and picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
