The next day, Ren Xiaosu went to school as usual. Last night, he had been waiting for Qin Sheng and Old Li to come and ask if it was him. However, Qin Sheng did not turn up.
But there was actually no need to ask. The moment the armor appeared, a lot of questions were answered.
It was as though everyone had a tacit understanding. "I know it's you, I know you know."
That was probably the case.
When Ren Xiaosu arrived at Qinghe University, he could hear the students discussing what happened last night.
All Ren Xiaosu could do was lean closer to listen.
"There was a great battle between supernatural beings in the city last night. Could that be the reason why our school is under lockdown now? It looks like something big is really going to happen in Luoyang City. "
"But Teacher Jiang Xu said that these things won't affect the school."
"Instead, I'm more concerned about that supernatural being. I heard he one-sidedly defeated his opponent and killed the other supernatural being. I wonder where that supernatural being is from and which organization he belongs to?" "Hehe." A well-informed student said, "I have more information than you do.
"Hehe." A well-informed student said, "I know a little more than you do. I know he's from Fortress 178. A cousin of my friend told me that this person used to be from Fortress 178. During the battle that destroyed the Zong Consortium, he single-handedly destroyed a stronghold. He's someone who's on par with the Demon Whisperer and is on the radar of all the major organizations."
When he said that, there was a burst of exclamations. Ren Xiaosu was in a very good mood.
"Is he really that powerful? But why would someone from the Northwest come to our Luoyang City? "Someone wondered," I heard he's still a young man. I wonder how old he is. "
Such a powerful supernatural being was actually someone of the same age. He was powerful, mysterious, and young. Just these qualities alone were enough to attract the yearning of the girls at school.
"However, I don't think he's the most powerful," a boy said.
Ren Xiaosu raised his eyebrows. Just as he was about to interrupt the other party, he heard the other party continue, "I still think that the person who brought along a maidservant to save Xu Zhi is a little more impressive. There's no other reason than the fact that he has a maidservant."
This male classmate's words were filled with disdain for the single dogs. Ren Xiaosu, on the other hand, relaxed. So all the praises were for himself …
When he found the classroom for the first period of the day, Ren Xiaosu was surprised to find that Yang Xiaojin's classmates were also discussing what had happened last night.
In this day and age, there was only so little entertainment. That was why an existence like Li Ran was so popular.
Anything that happened in life could be discussed for a very, very long time. If you lived in a stronghold and did not know what had happened today, you would be too embarrassed to go out.
Basically, the landline phones in the stronghold were mainly used for transmitting news through the grapevine.
Ren Xiaosu thought that if he found Yang Xiaojin in the future, she would come back to school and tell her classmates, "Do you know who I am? That's the person I like."
He would see if his classmates would be jealous.
While he was thinking about this, someone next to him said, "Hey, what are you grinning like a fool at the door?"
Even now, his classmates still did not know what Ren Xiaosu's name was. Ren Xiaosu did not intend to tell them either, so Ren Xiaosu just addressed him as "Hey."
Ren Xiaosu came back to his senses and found a seat to sit down. A male classmate next to him asked curiously, "Did you tell Zheng Hang about what happened yesterday? We couldn't get through to him on the phone. Why did Teacher Jiang Xu call you to his office?"
Ren Xiaosu glanced at him. "What's it to you?"
The male classmate was speechless.
The classmates next to him looked over. Wasn't he quite amiable yesterday? What was going on? Did he eat gunpowder today?
However, Ren Xiaosu did not explain anything and just waited quietly for the class to start.
Yesterday, Jiang Xu had said that these people did not have a good relationship with Yang Xiaojin. If that was the case, Ren Xiaosu would definitely not be nice to them.
Jiang Xu only had two classes a week. Ren Xiaosu listened to the other teachers' classes and found two of them to be more interesting. One of them was about modern history, which recorded some of the events that happened after The Cataclysm.
For example, how everyone joined forces to establish the Barrier Alliance and then split up to fight their own battles.
After class, Ren Xiaosu prepared to go to the cafeteria to eat as usual. It had to be said that the food at the university was really cheap. He heard it was because the Qinghe Group was subsidizing it.
If not for the fact that the Qinghe Group was currently under martial law, Ren Xiaosu would have called Zhou Yingxue, Wang Yuchi, and the others over to eat together.
But just as the students were about to rush out of the classroom, Jiang Xu suddenly appeared outside the door. Jiang Xu smiled and waved at Ren Xiaosu. The entire class was shocked. Everyone knew about Jiang Xu's habits. If there were no classes, Jiang Xu would never come to school. After all, he was only a visiting professor, and there were a lot of things to do at Hope Media.
Everyone looked at Ren Xiaosu. What could make Jiang Xu so concerned about a student?
Ren Xiaosu walked out of the classroom. "What are you up to? I don't think you have a class today."
"Alright," Jiang Xu interrupted. "I'll take you to the staff cafeteria. It's my treat. Do you want to eat?"
"Sure!" Ren Xiaosu then followed Jiang Xu out.
A large group of students were left baffled. A girl said, "Did Teacher Jiang Xu just say he's going to take him to eat? It's obvious that their relationship isn't ordinary. "
…
On the way to the staff cafeteria, Jiang Xu suddenly asked, "You were the one who was there last night, right?"
"Mhm." Ren Xiaosu felt there was nothing to deny.
Jiang Xu said with a smile, "Zhang Jinglin is just a weak scholar, yet he chose a supernatural being to entrust Fortress 178 to. It looks like he also feels that the world is starting to get dangerous. I heard you destroyed a Soong Clan stronghold by yourself? "
"I wasn't that good at fighting. Luck also played a big part in that. But Mr. Zhang chose me …" Ren Xiaosu said modestly, "Perhaps it was mainly because I'm smarter than others."
Jiang Xu was rendered speechless for a long time. He changed the topic and said, "What's with the steel armor you were wearing yesterday? I don't think any of the consortiums have developed something like that, right?"
"Those are nanomachines from the Li Consortium and the Yang Clan," Ren Xiaosu explained. While they were walking on a secluded path and seeing that there was no one around, he reached out his hand. Jiang Xu watched as the nanomachines transformed into a steel hand armor like a phantom.
He was surprised. "Are these nanomachines in your body?"
"Yes." Ren Xiaosu nodded and said, "They rely on bioenergy to replenish their energy. They can also temporarily replace bone and muscle tissue when they're injured. They're connected to the human body's neurons, and controlling them is like controlling your own fingers. Speaking of which, you can also make some connections. It definitely won't be a problem for you to repair your broken bones. "
Ren Xiaosu said that because he felt it would be a pity for a person like Jiang Xu to limp.
