"You should take a good vacation, baby. Humans can't work like machines all the time." Lili was very happy with her son's answer and Zhang Lisheng's behavior in the next few days made her even more satisfied.
Other than going out for a few hours after breakfast every day, claiming that he had something to do, Zhang Lisheng would return home on time before the afternoon to have dinner with his family. Everything seemed to have returned to how it was when the young man first arrived in the US.
Time flew by and Christmas soon passed. This morning, when Zhang Lisheng was sitting cross-legged on the bed cultivating his secret method, he suddenly felt that the wizard power surging in his body was suddenly gone. The bones and muscles in his entire body twitched, producing a sharp pain.
After being awakened by the pain, not only did he not panic, but instead, he looked at the clump of hair that fell from his head and touched his heart that was obviously beating slower. An ecstatic expression appeared on his face. "I've made a breakthrough! I've made a breakthrough to Rank-7 Wizard! I can finally transform the second wizard gu now! From now on, being able to transform avatar is equivalent to having an extra life.
However, the higher I make a breakthrough, the more powerful the transformation from life to death will be. I'll even become as terrifying as a zombie when I reach Rank-11 Wizard. "
Even though he was complaining to himself, the joy on Zhang Lisheng's face did not change at all. After all, to a wizard, the appearance of the body was completely negligible compared to obtaining the ultimate power.
He got up from the bed and fiddled with his hair hard. After pulling off all the hair that had fallen off, he cleaned himself up and took a hot shower to rub off all the thick dead skin that had fallen off overnight. After changing into a clean set of clothes, he ran downstairs.
At this time, the Lavin family, who were already used to waking up early under Sullo's influence, had already gathered around the dining table to eat breakfast.
When Lili, who was busy in the kitchen, saw the young man walking into the living room, she immediately shouted, "Baby, you're awake! Come here quickly, I've made your favorite shrimp burger!"
"Oh, good morning, brother! You're awake! My good brothers from Los Angeles are coming to New York today, so you must accompany them and show me some respect.
Nottingham, who met you last time, has promoted you to a godly level in UCLA. Many of Stephen's and my good brothers are coming to New York to see this legendary figure with their own eyes. " The instant Lili's words left her mouth, Randy, who was munching on the table, turned to look at Zhang Lisheng and shouted loudly while knocking on his plate.
This 21-year-old second-year UCLA football team's substitute 'running back' had already become a regular player. Taking advantage of the tail end of puberty, his height had also shot up to more than two meters, becoming the tallest and strongest person in the family in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately, his brain did not improve along with his body size. His father, Sullo, shouted angrily when he saw his mischievous look, "Randy, I'm sending you to Los Angeles for college, not to join a gang.
You can have brothers, but you can't add the word 'good' in front of it. Don't imitate that tone of voice. Otherwise, after a long time, you'll really become like those street thugs. The moment you open your mouth, people will know that you're not a decent person. "
"That's enough, Dad. I'm already 21 years old. The law allows me to drink freely. Of course, it also allows me to speak however I want …"
"But this is my house, boy. Your 'hooligan' look won't work here. If you're not willing to follow the rules, then scram …"
"Sullo, stop it. What you said is a little too much." Lili, who was making a burger for Zhang Lisheng, turned around to stop him when she heard her lover's angry roar. Then, she passed the burger that she was planning to give to her son to Randy and stroked the head of this tall and strong young man whose face was flushed. "Randy, you have no idea how worried your father was about you after you went to Los Angeles.
You've already grown up, so he shouldn't be talking to you in a reprimanding tone like how he would talk to a child. But you must understand that he's a police officer, so he's different from ordinary parents. He'll pay special attention to what you say. "
The words of Aunt Lili, who had taken care of him since he was young and was even closer to him than his biological mother, calmed Randy who was about to explode gradually. "Pfft, I won't stoop to my dad's level. He's just a little superintendent who spent two years in a community college while I'm a big shot who's going to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame in the future."
The second son's words made Sullo so mad that blood rushed to his head. However, under his lover's warning gaze, he could not do anything since he had said something wrong. All he could do was to continue eating his breakfast in silence.
Seizing the moment when the living room finally became quiet, Zhang Lisheng, who was by the side, said immediately, "Mom, Uncle Lavin, I have an important meeting to attend today. I don't have time to have breakfast at home.
Bye everyone.
Randy, remember to call me when your Los Angeles friend comes. I'll definitely rush over if the meeting is over. "
"Oh baby, I'll pack a few burgers for you to go. It'll be quick."
"There's no need for that, mom. Charlie and the directors are already waiting for me." Zhang Lisheng waved his hand and ran out of the house.
The heavy snow outside the house had just stopped and the entire street was covered in white snow. The municipal government's snow removal truck was slowly clearing the snow on the driveway. In such a weather that coincided with the Christmas holiday, it was only natural that there were very few pedestrians and vehicles on the road.
Taking a deep breath of the cold air, the young man stepped on the white snow that was not even above his ankles and walked to the community parking lot. Some of the neighbors who came out to clear the snow in front of their doors after breakfast would greet him warmly when they saw him coming, "Hey Lisheng, good morning. Are you still going out on such a snowy day?"
"Good morning, sir. It's hard to cancel a date that I've already made with someone." In the face of such greetings, Zhang Lisheng would politely reply with some fabricated greetings. He kept on talking nonsense along the way and adding on to the fact that he could not walk too fast in the snow, he finally reached his destination after more than 20 minutes.
Two days before Christmas, the young man gave himself a Mercedes-Benz GL63 AMG as a gift. Driving this top-notch SUV that could travel unimpeded in the snow without the need for a skid chain, he turned left and right on the empty snow-white streets in New York City. Not long after, he rushed onto the highway that led straight to the suburbs and in less than an hour, he had already arrived at his factory in Mutteslow.
Being close to the sea, the air was slightly warmer. This allowed some of the strong-willed protesters in the wilderness to persevere by lighting a bonfire in the iron barrel at night.
When they saw a luxurious SUV slowing down, a few people in the group held up a sign that read 'Oppose the dictatorship and monopoly of cold-blooded capitalists' and shouted, "We want to work, we want freedom of choice …" They ran to the road.
However, before they could even run to the roadside, Zhang Lisheng had already turned his car onto the branch road that led straight to the new LS Slaughterhouse and accelerated into the factory.
Having just experienced 24 hours of non-stop overtime before Christmas, the slaughterhouse was now ushering in the slowest days of the year. More than 80% of the employees were on holiday.
The young man parked his car outside his office building and walked past the empty reception room on the first floor. He strode into the office on the second floor and closed the door tightly. Impatiently, he commanded the lizard and wyrmdragon to leap out of his pocket at the same time.
He glanced at the two transformed wizard gus and finally fixed his gaze on Island Dragon. "Compared to riding on the clouds and soaring freely, invisibility and nihilation are much more useful now." Zhang Lisheng muttered to himself and commanded the wyrmdragon to nihilate its body before entering the trench under the factory. However, he allowed the lizard to return to its normal form.
Its head was like a western dragon's head.
Its neck was slender and straight like a stone tablet.
Its long body was dragging nine odd-shaped scorpion tails that were constantly swaying.
Its body was supported by four pillar-like limbs with curved joints that had huge scale claws. When the nine-tailed lizard with a body length of more than 15 meters fully displayed its body, it looked terrifying and ferocious.
Staring at the wizard gu, Zhang Lisheng did not have a trace of fear in his heart. He reached out and rubbed the lizard's scales for the last time before slowly closing his eyes. Opening his mouth, he began to slowly exhale the air in his stomach.
Unhurriedly exhaling the air in his lungs that an ordinary person would never be able to exhale unless they were dead, the young man, whose chest was deeply caved in, opened his eyes and outlined a vivid and clear image of the Demon God in his mind. Then, he began to inhale gently.
In an instant, the space around the lizard standing in the open space of the office in front of him became slightly distorted. Then, a gust of black smoke silently drifted out of the wizard gu's surface and automatically entered Zhang Lisheng's mouth and nose.
When the black smoke entered his body, an incomparably sour taste filled the young man's mouth, nose, trachea, and esophagus, causing him to feel uncomfortable.
However, Zhang Lisheng, who had already experienced the transformation once, knew that this was a necessary test. He calmed his mind and when he was about to continue to inhale as though he was unaware of it, the demon's image in his mind suddenly changed and transformed into a giant Money Toad that was entrenched on the ground and devouring the world.
After the sudden appearance of the strange phenomenon, before the young man could even react to it, he felt that the wizard power in his body had completely gone out of control. His vision turned black as he fainted. After he really lost consciousness, the conflicting power of the wizard gu quickly wiped out the vitality in his body.
At the brink of death, the jelly gem tied on Zhang Lisheng's wrist emitted a seven-colored brilliance for the second time. Starting from his arm, it continued to extend and soon wrapped the young man's entire body.
A few minutes later, the thin film formed by the jelly gem slowly faded away and turned back into a seven-colored string tied on his wrist. At the same time, the young man's eyelids fluttered and he took a few rapid breaths before sitting up abruptly.
Looking around, Zhang Lisheng, who was in a daze for a long time, slowly recalled the encounter just now. "I can't believe that there's actually such a thing as a collision when transforming multiple wizard gus. It's a good thing that the damage is not too big …" He smiled wryly and muttered to himself as he stood up from the carpet. He did not expect that he had actually experienced a life-and-death crisis just now.
