[The success probability is 50%, and the passive attribute "Power of Talk" is awarded. If it fails, the plot of option 1 will be entered.]
The three options have the same success rate. This situation has appeared before, but all three are only 50%, which is quite new.
Option one is not worth considering. As a villain, directly entering the "world destruction" plot, there is no need to say what the ending will be.
Both two and three provide a lot of room for operation.
The courage card obtained when killing the bandits previously, its function is to improve the corresponding combat ability according to the degree of bravery. In simple terms, it is to obtain a short-term gain buff.
However, there is no detailed explanation on how the gain is achieved, so you have to adapt to the circumstances.
Option three is a typical "peaceful" solution. If Shui Qiu were to face this situation alone, this would most likely be the scenario.
Generally speaking, option three should be the "orthodox" plot.
Tang Xin moved her chin.
But this option is reserved for the "protagonist"!
Look at your own cold temperament, look at your eyes that are intimidating without being angry, look at this face that for some reason always feels like a villain with makeup on, is this the kind of character that can say something like “Please be fair and just”?
It seems that the success rate is 50%, but in reality it is probably less than 5%!
Use the Courage Card
Tang Xin raised her eyebrows, put her hands behind her back, slowly walked up to Shui Qiu, and said lightly to everyone in the Zhou family.
"roll."
Although her voice was not loud, everyone present could hear it clearly.
The elders of the Yan family and the Wang family all looked over, concentrating intently, not daring to make a sound for fear of ruining the atmosphere.
"What?"
The eldest son of the Zhou family asked back with his cheeks twitching twice.
"I say," she glanced at the Zhou family members calmly and continued, "get out of my sight."
"you……"
The young man was one of the prominent figures in Seven Star City after all. He was so angry that his face turned blue when he heard such words from a half-grown girl in front of everyone.
Seeing the conflict escalate, several elders of the Zhou family gathered their inner energy and were ready to take action at any time.
[The effect of the Courage Card is triggered, and the corresponding combat ability is improving...]
[Your "Fireball" has been temporarily upgraded to "Explosion Art": the explosion range is increased by 200%, the explosion light is expanded by 300%, and the explosion sound is increased by 500%. Limited to three shots, which can be used in combination.]
[Note: The power actually only increased by 10%... "Explosion is art, why does art need power?"]
What remarks... Doesn't the artistic quality of an explosion come from its power?
But this card is quite useful right now.
"Boring."
Tang Xin raised his arm and pointed upwards.
Everyone in the field was still wondering what her action meant, when suddenly, everything in sight was covered with a layer of orange-red shell.
Three huge fireballs suddenly appeared in the sky. They were so huge that they were shocking.
Snapped.
Then she snapped her fingers.
Boom-boom-boom!!!
Three fireballs exploded one after another, and powerful gusts of wind swept in all directions, blowing the young generations toppling over and over, breaking tree trunks, causing birds and beasts to scream, and even the clouds in the sky disappeared.
Tang Xin just stood there, letting the strong wind blow past her, her body didn't move at all, only the ends of her hair became a little messy.
The person standing opposite her stood there in a daze, as if his soul had been taken away by the explosion.
"I don't care who Shui Qiu was before," Tang Xin said calmly, "She is mine now. If you have any questions, just tell me."
She took a step forward and looked directly at everyone in the Zhou family.
"So, what do you guys have going on?"
"I……"
The eldest son of the Zhou family was at a loss, and his head was still buzzing.
If those fireballs fall to the ground, no one here will be spared!
She possesses an extremely terrifying power!
Damn it, the head of the Yan family is using them as a gun. That guy knew from the beginning that the person in front of him is someone who cannot be provoked!
He wanted to divert the senior's attention so that she would forget the Yan family's rudeness and turn to deal with the Zhou family.
"Nothing happened to us!" The eldest son of the Zhou family was sweating profusely. He bowed and said, "It's all a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding! It's our fault!"
"Well," Tang Xin said calmly, "Everyone makes mistakes... I can forgive the first time, but I can't forgive the second time, understand?"
"Understood! Understood! Senior, let's leave now!"
The young man ignored the gazes of others and did not dare to stay for another second. He left the hunting ground in shame, accompanied by several elders who were also distracted.
The corners of Tang Xin's mouth curled up, revealing an expression that seemed calm and indifferent to others.
"Oh, young people nowadays..."
Chapter 29: Do you hate physical contact?
After the "mysterious" figure Tang Xin demonstrated his "crushing" strength, the Yan family completely gave up the idea of resisting.
Not to mention the Yan family, even if all the forces in Seven Star City were combined, they might not be enough to defeat this "senior" alone.
According to the agreement, Shui Qiu, who successfully won the first place in the hunting battle, can enter the family scripture library and choose any martial arts book, such as "Fire Flame Sutra".
"Go ahead," Tang Xin said with a smile and waved her hand, "I'll wait for you outside."
After thinking for a while, she added another sentence.
"By the way, if there are any grudges or resentments, take them all together. With me protecting you, they won't dare to do anything."
"Yes, senior sister!"
Shui Qiu nodded seriously, turned around and entered the Yan family's scripture library.
While waiting, Tang Xin checked the newly acquired [Passive Attributes].
[Pat the head: Pat the top of the other person's head to increase their understanding. Limited to once a day.]
"?"
Tang Xin touched his head.
I don't feel anything, but this hair feels really good...
Does this "a little bit" mean 1 point of understanding, or a little bit of understanding? How much is a little bit? Is this a useless reward?
No, try finding a girl to touch your head.
"Hey," Tang Xin looked around, picked a random girl, smiled, and said kindly, "Let's do an experiment!"
"Ah! No! Please don't do this!"
In the eyes of this innocent girl, a senior with an "evil sneer" on her face was raising her evil claws and slowly reaching out to her.
Experiment? She must want to skin me alive and turn me into a puppet, or lock me up in a basement and do something horrible to me!
"Don't worry, it's absolutely safe, and it might be good for you."
Tang Xin explained patiently.
I see. In other words, it means that you must make yourself wish for death but cannot, live a life worse than death, and be unable to die even if you want to. This is the only way to be absolutely safe!
"Really? Do I look like a bad person when I see my innocent expression?"
He's not a bad guy, he's a big devil!
After talking for a while, seeing that the girl was still shaking like a sieve, Tang Xin had no choice but to wave his hand helplessly and let her leave.
Is it so difficult to do something good for others for free?
After a while, Shui Qiu walked out of the Sutra Library with no change in his expression.
"It's faster than I expected," Tang Xin said. "Didn't you do anything else while you were at it?"
For example, he would severely beat up those who had bullied him in the family before, so that they would know what fear is...
"No need," Shui Qiu shook his head. "I know very well that from now on, they and I are no longer the same kind of people. Unless something unexpected happens, I will never have any intersection with them again."
"They will spend the rest of their lives in this city, but I... can see a much wider world than them."
When the blue-eyed girl said this, her eyes were extremely determined.
Just from these words, we can see that there is a gap of several philosophers between the protagonist and the supporting role...
"Well said, you will definitely see a more wonderful world!"
Tang Xin patted her shoulder.
"Ahem," Shui Qiu came back to his senses after being slapped by her, with a shy expression on his face, "I was just talking casually... I've already got the "Fire Flame Art."
[The main quest has been completed, and the reward is the secret technique "Cloud Exploration Hand"]
Completed. Obtained the Fire Flame Art without exposing the identity of Xuanling Sect!
Shui Qiu also severed her ties with the Yan family. She was never a member of this family. Her true identity... will probably only be revealed in the later plot.
[Current favorability: 99.999999…]
I've done a lot of missions, but I haven't completed any of the main story objectives. Not to mention completing them, they've become even more difficult!
"We got the stuff," Tang Xin said, spreading his hands. "Let's go back to the sect."
"Um," Shui Qiu said with a blushing face, "Did you forget something..."
"Forgot something?" She touched her chin. "Really? My memory should be pretty good..."
"Senior Sister!" After spending so many days together, Shui Qiu had already gotten used to this routine, and immediately added loudly, "You promised me that if you won first place in the hunting battle, you could make a request!"
