Returning from the abyss

Chapter 429 The Return
Qu Tingchan's courses are very planned, and he is different from the old-fashioned look, he is funny, easy-going, and very relaxed.Even when Lu Ning tried to start the five-sense isolation training, it didn't feel so difficult under his guidance.

During the break, Lu Ning also asked Qu Tingchan, don't they need to improve themselves?

"First of all... the teaching will not delay my own training plan. Second, our current strength is at the third level and we will not encounter much trouble. We have been pushed back." Qu Tingchan mentioned this attitude very well. Youran didn't seem to think it was a big deal, "And our stay is much longer than yours, about four or five months."

"So long?"

"The organization pays." Qu Tingchan gave a "you understand" look.

"But why press your progress?"

"Mind-strengthening." Qu Tingchan smiled, "Sounds mysterious, doesn't it? But since the above thinks so, it must be reasonable. Our speed is too fast, and there may still be a lot of aura, so we need to Grind away part of it, otherwise Tier [-] will be difficult."

Lu Ning looked left and right, but she didn't feel that Qu Tingchan was full of energy.

"Don't worry, you don't have to be like us. It's time for you to get better when you're promoted." Qu Tingchan seemed to know what Lu Ning was thinking, "This is the difference, not good or bad."

"I understand. By the way, Nadu Xieyi..."

"She's gone to the scene, so I've been substituting for the whole day these few days, otherwise she should have taught you part of the class."

"Is that so..."

Perhaps due to psychological reasons, Lu Ning felt that Qu Tingchan was not worried about Du Xieyi's safety at all, and this kind of recognition of the opponent's strength was really enviable.

But her own worries didn't last too long. In the evening when Zhao Xihua came to visit with Fujii Xueyin, the two of them were hugged directly from behind.

"Long time no see! You two are here!"

"What do you mean, can I be strong?" Zhao Xihua backhanded the person behind him to the front, Ning Yeyi's face was filled with a smile, and there was no change from his memory, but at this moment, Lu Ning felt that his heart was finally Get down.

"Congratulations." Fujii Yukine smiled gently, "I can feel that you have become stronger again."

"I'll just treat you as being polite!" Ning Yeyi rushed into the room and tore off his coat, "Big harvest! Let's go eat some good food together! I'm treating guests today!"

It seemed that everything was going well—no, after ascending to the third rank, many things went well.

Lu Ning smiled and picked up her phone: "How about I call a few more people?"

"How many...?" Ning Yeyi's body paused for a moment, "Wait! If there are more than ten people, each pay the bill! I'm not that rich yet!"

"I'm rich." Zhao Xihua raised his head slightly, "I just got promoted, and I have plenty of points. Lu Ning, call all your friends over!"

"Aren't we waiting for Shu Xingruo to advance?" Fujii Xueyin asked.

"Of course it's time to meet again. How can two gatherings be combined into one?"

No one tried to refute Zhao Xihua's logic.

And inexplicably, this gathering turned into a big dinner.

The reason is that Zhao Xihua called a few teammates over, Lu Ning also invited Cheng Yurun and Ning Yeyi also asked a few friends she met in the scene—and then there was a chain reaction.

In the end, Lu Ning sat in the banquet hall specially set up by the distribution center, watching the eight nearly 50-meter-long tables filled with an assortment of food. The flame of light was ignited in the chandelier on the top of the banquet hall, illuminating the surroundings like daylight.Hundreds of people in different clothes, who are more or less related to everyone here, were talking with each other, but they didn't realize how things turned out like this.

At this moment, Zhao Xihua, who had changed into an evening dress, came out from the dressing room behind the screen.

"Did you plan it long ago?" Lu Ning gave Zhao Xihua a sideways glance.

"Hey, chances are something that you have to seize, not to mention that with your level, the friends you make must be high-level tourists. But then again, this is socializing! Lu Ning, it's not that difficult."

Zhao Xihua pulled Lu Ning up from the stool, and raised his hand to greet the two closest people.These are a pair of handsome twins, who met when Fujii Yukine was promoted. The tacit understanding between the two is almost like the same person using two bodies. There is no doubt that Zhao Xihua remembered everyone's name here.

"Hayato, Takayoshi, how do you feel?"

"We thought it was just a small gathering, but that's okay. Everyone in this banquet hall is worthy of making friends. Thank you for inviting us." The man on the left raised his glass, "Miss Zhao, when the second level Unable to make friends in the same distribution center, we can finally get to know each other when we reach the third level."

"We are all newcomers, so take care of each other. What's more, your strength is obvious to all." Zhao Xihua also picked up a wine glass and poured it for himself, and drank half of the glass in one gulp, "What are your plans now, both of you?"

"First get a firm foothold at the third level." The man on the right smiled slightly, "We haven't experienced the first scene yet, and we don't know how difficult the third level scene is. We have to adapt to the new environment when we first arrive."

Lu Ning saw the golden thread coat of arms on the lapels of the two people's dresses. It was a giant tree holding nine suns, so these two people undoubtedly belonged to the first organization "Donghai Fuso" of the third order of the East. .

"This... Miss? Can I get to know you?" The two of them had exchanged pleasantries, and of course they would not lose their courtesy to Lu Ning.

"My name is Lu Ning, sorry... I can't tell you two apart." Lu Ning also tried to communicate.

"Haha, sometimes even close friends can't tell the difference." The one on the left laughed and pointed to the brother next to him, "His complexion is darker, he is younger, and his name is Yingyi."

"A few minutes." Yingyi immediately added, "Hayato's eyebrows are a little raised, this is the most obvious difference between the two of us."

Lu Ning looked carefully, and really remembered this difference.

"Then I'll take Lu Ning for a walk and get to know a few more people. If you have anything to say, you can call me or Fujii, and everyone will do their best to help!" Seeing that the situation was almost over, Zhao Xihua immediately took Lu Ning's hand.

"Of course, thank you here." Hayato and Takayoshi also stepped out of the way in due course.

Zhao Xihua continued to lead Lu Ning forward.And the more she continued to know more people, the more Lu Ning felt the strength of Zhao Xihua's talent. There are more than 100 people, even if Lu Ning has the most memory, she can remember the characteristics of many people. As for the name, she just said it once when she was introduced at the door, she almost forgot, but Zhao Xihua can accurately call everyone, even Those who are a little bit unfamiliar can accurately match their preferences in a few words, and the atmosphere of the conversation is heated up, and then they leave quickly and politely.

Halfway through the circle, Lu Ning felt tired, but the people she knew before had a deep memory at the moment. After all, Zhao Xihua would intentionally or unintentionally tell the biggest characteristics of the other party every time they chatted. Once there were characteristics, Lu Ning's Memory is also good.

"Tired?" Zhao Xihua looked at Lu Ning with some amusement.

"are not you tired?"

"Give me a hundred people and I can chat until dawn." Zhao Xihua shrugged, "This is an indispensable part of your future. It will never hurt to know more people. My experience tells me so."

"But you didn't talk much."

"Friendship is always a matter of shallowness and deepness. If it is a reception in peacetime, we can chat a lot of gossip and talk about those useless social rhetoric, but this is a distribution center after all. Everyone seems to be relaxed, but in fact they still care about it. It's a matter of survival."

"so?"

"So you have to master the level of each communication. Knowing a person is a process. If you show too much enthusiasm at one time, you will go too far. The same is true for a group of people. First, make a good impression, and then meet occasionally to talk about the past. If you meet When encountering difficulties, ask each other for help, this is how the social circle in the distribution center is established. In a sense, it is much simpler than real communication.”

"I don't think it's easy." Lu Ning felt tired.

"Then take it as a challenge. Anyway, we have plenty of time to practice such things. Being too lonely is not a good thing."

"You are an expert, you have the final say."

"That's right!"

There is no need to introduce how many people Lu Ning has met this time. In short, Zhao Xihua has trained her well. She felt a little surprised.

Two days later, Lu Ning received another news that another group of members who had completed the promotion test was about to arrive.

According to time estimates, this is probably the end of Shu Xingruo's promotion time.After the training, Lu Ning went straight to the airport, and joined Ning Yeyi and others who had been waiting there for a long time, waiting for the arrival of the ship.

The lights of the distribution center dimmed slightly, simulating the scene of dusk, and a beam of light appeared in the distant universe.

"That's it." Fujii Xueyin pointed to the position of the light, "The pick-up ship uses the warp point technology to buffer the landing, and the energy released in the main time and space will be released as pure light energy. From a distance, it looks like a bunch of beams .”

"You know a lot." Ning Yeyi said.

"It's all useless knowledge." Fujii Xueyin said modestly.

The warping point buffer can quickly span a long distance. Soon, in the last burst of light, the spaceship appeared above the airport. At this time, the speed has tended to be stable, and the huge hull began to slowly sink in a landing zone. , This is also the first time that Lu Ning watched the airport ship fall.

"It was spectacular."

"Indeed, if I can meet the galaxy scene, I must try to drive such a boat." Ning Yeyi nodded and said.

"That requires commanding an army. This kind of starship cannot be operated by one person alone." Zhao Xihua said with a smile.

A large white mist suddenly rose below the ship. When the mist cleared, the huge support raised in the landing area had already parked the ship firmly in the mooring position, and then a row of neat lines appeared on the side of the glorious ship wall. The gangway protruded from the inside and extended to the ground, and someone walked out of the gangway.

At this time, those who come to pick up people can also go to the landing zone.

The four entered the landing zone, carefully watched everyone who got off the boat, and soon saw two familiar figures.

The first is Shu Xingruo. She is wearing a Victorian-style black dress, and an aristocratic top hat further sets off her already good appearance. She is holding a black umbrella in one hand and a slightly old-fashioned umbrella in the other. brown suitcase.

Her current temperament is quite different from Lu Ning's impression.

Shu Xingruo originally had a relatively cheerful personality, but after being promoted to the first level, she became depressed due to many reasons. During the day, she spent almost all day in various training places looking for ways to improve herself. Lu Ning felt that she was not in a good state. But I don't know how to persuade.

But now, she could feel that Shu Xingruo had an extra vigor, which she didn't even feel when she first met her.

"Shu Xingruo! This way!" Zhao Xihua had already waved his hand, Shu Xingruo turned his head and saw a few people here, and immediately raised his umbrella hand to beckon, and walked over here.

Not far behind her, the person chatting with others was also an acquaintance.

Yetis was dressed like a detective, and she wore a khaki beret on her head, which formed a strong contrast with her personal style, but she seemed to be enjoying it.Behind Shu Xingruo, she saw Lu Ning a little later, but her attitude was just as enthusiastic.

"You guys who sneaked away, how about Tier [-]?"

After Ye Tisi approached, she directly questioned her with her waist inserted.

"Just now, Lu Ning and Yeyi have passed a scene." Fujii Xueyin said.

"Steal away?" Lu Ning looked at Ye Tisi suspiciously.

"After you were promoted, we discussed to come together, but after a few days, we all ran away ahead of schedule!" Ye Tisi pointed to Zhao Xihua, and then pointed to Fujii Xueyin.

"Our team's schedule has been advanced..."

"Zhao Xihua specially came to invite, and I thought it was the right time, so I didn't refuse." Fujii Xueyin explained with a smile, "And I told Shu Xingruo about it."

"But Ye Tisi is not the one who will let you go just because she explained it." Shu Xingruo joked, "She was really sad that day."

"Am I going to apologize to the head office?" Zhao Xihua handled this with ease, "I've taken care of all the problems here at Tier [-] except for the scenes, and I'll be your full-time tour guide for two days?"

"It's more or less..." Ye Tisi put away her feigned anger in satisfaction.And Shu Xingruo agreed by the way.

"How's the score? Is the promotion going well?" Ning Yeyi asked.

"Twenty-two thousand, it's not bad, at least it's more profitable than the first-tier." Yetisi said.

"Forty-eight thousand, living up to expectations." Shu Xingruo directly said a shocking number.

You must know that although there are slight fluctuations in scores due to different scenarios, the overall score will not vary too much. Lu Ning's score is [-] when he is promoted. Shu Xingruo's score is second only to Du The two monsters, Xieyi and Qutingchan, even had higher promotion points than Cheng Wuling.

"You...you can..." The corner of Zhao Xihua's mouth twitched, "If you don't make a song, you're done. A blockbuster?"

"Fortunately, I happened to come across a suitable scene." Shu Xingruo was not proud of it, but she was still very clear about her situation.
