What To Do if You Can’t Win? You Can Only Choose Strategy

It is said to be New Year's Eve, but in fact it means crossing that second. The fireworks bloom until the end, and the splendor lasts only a few moments.

However, this is Su Bei's first year in a different world, in a real sense.

It has a certain commemorative significance.

Su Bei and Jasmine sat on chairs and looked through the window at the fireworks exploding outside.

Most of the fireworks come from the Chinese District of Winter City, with Wall Street as the center and scattered in all directions; there are also some in the Qu District, scattered here and there.

Jasmine's eyes widened with sparkling lights as she watched the fireworks explode one after another.

There are no such things in the capital, which does not mean that there are no fireworks.

It's just that the fireworks set off by the city-state of Latinum all use magic. They are more gorgeous than natural creations, but they lack the instantaneous explosion of real objects.

A little quieter, maybe not bad.

Su Bei felt inexplicably amused as he watched Jasmine's fur shrink as the fireworks exploded.

This was the rare time he had to spare, and his expression softened a lot: "Want to buy it?"

Jasmine pursed her lips: "Next year?"

"Huh?" Su Bei thought he heard it wrong, but after Jasmine smiled and continued, "I mean, can we also celebrate the New Year together next year, Mr. Su Bei, we will also set off fireworks then?" Su Bei suddenly I was stunned.

He had heard this sentence many times.

Elementary school classmates said, "We should keep in touch after graduation," or junior high school classmates said, "Let's get together and meet during the next vacation?" Or, for example, high school graduation, that grand graduation ceremony, where everyone was eating and drinking. , spewing out heroic words and swearing to meet at the top.

Of course, the contact ends at the end of the story.

Therefore, the words "see you next year" are similar to "see you again" here in Northern Jiangsu. If contact is broken for more than three days, Northern Jiangsu will think that this bond has come to an end, and there will be no more contact in the future.

Maybe it's because you don't trust others, or maybe you lower your expectations so you don't have to pay for the emotions of being let down.

But Su Bei still smiled and nodded in response:

"As it should be."

In this way, the New Year is over.

Su Bei has no intention of visiting.

Of course no one will come to visit.

A year has passed and the house has not changed much from before.

It is worth mentioning that the bed is already a double bed with bunk beds, which means that Su Bei can sleep on the bed for the first time in a long time.

late at night.

After a simple celebration, the two lay down on the bed around early in the morning and prepared to fall asleep.

Su Bei slept on the lower bunk in case there was any sudden situation and could respond in time.

After hearing Jasmine's even breathing, Su Bei also fell asleep.

I fell asleep quickly and deeply.

He is too tired.

The night is getting deeper.

I guess it will be dawn soon.

Jasmine's upper and lower eyes and face kept touching, as if they were opening and closing again. She felt a little uneasy, so she quietly got out of bed.

On the lower bunk, seeing that Su Bei was still sleeping, Jasmine didn't bother him. Instead, she walked a few steps and stood in front of the pile of debris.

His expression was a bit distressed.

Why do strange voices keep calling me?

After careful identification, Jasmine confirmed that the source of the sound was inside the pile of debris.

So, Jasmine leaned down and squatted in front of the pile of debris. After observing for a while, she looked at the sword hilt with a piece of it poked out, and watched quietly for a while.

After confirming, he slowly extended his hand.

Is it this one?

"Lord, great Lord."

Just when he was about to reach out his hand, "Gluttony" suddenly trembled like a maniac and put the hilt of the sword into Jasmine's hand.

The sudden sound and movement startled Jasmine, and she forgot to resist.

"Lord, future king, I am Gluttony, I have finally found you, I have finally waited for you..."

Waves of "Gluttony" energy surged towards Jasmine, then turned into wisps of black and sent them to the hilt of the sword.

In the blink of an eye, Jasmine's 1.4-meter body grew bigger, her figure became slim and slim, her innocent blue eyes turned evil and slender, but her face became increasingly cold, and her strength remained firmly at the level of two. There are many terrifying magics that have never been used and seem to be innate in his mind.

This frightened Jasmine so much that she was instantly thrown out by Gluttony and thrown into a pile of debris with a "clang, clang, clang, clang" sound.

Soon, Jasmine's body also recovered and returned to its original shape, leaving only the messy hair spinning around, showing her inner unrest.

It's because the Jasmine CPU is dry-burned.

This movement also woke up Su Bei directly. He didn't move much. He just turned over on the bed, turned his body sideways, looked at Jasmine, and asked, "Where is the demolition of the house?"

Jasmine turned around in a daze, obviously not having recovered yet, and kept repeating: "Mr. Su Bei, it's over, it's over, Mr. Su Bei, I got into trouble."

Then he showed a frightened expression, as if he was thinking of those evil rituals in the rumors, and stammered: "Oh~ That, that sword, spoke and called me, Mr. Su Bei, he sent me strange energy. "

"Am I going to be broken? I am going to become a devil."

"If I become a devil, please be gentler, Mr. Su Bei." Jasmine was dizzy and didn't know what she said. She just felt that she must be dead and was speechless.

"No, please be more ruthless and don't let me do evil..."

Jasmine was thinking about it, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She thought that her life had just gotten better, and she had gone through so much hardship to gain peace, but she would die without peace in a few days.

Why is there such a dangerous sword in the house?

Or put it in a pile of junk.

Jasmine was extremely sad, blamed herself and felt wronged. She thought that if she hadn't been curious about everything, she wouldn't have followed the sound and touched the sword.

Not paying attention to Jasmine's random remarks, Su Bei quickly extracted the key words in her words.

Then Su Bei noticed something was wrong with the air, so he squinted his eyes to observe, and found some "Gluttony" fog.

Combining the action of Jasmine grinding her teeth and what she said, she quickly figured out the situation.

So, Su Bei asked: "Are you hungry?"

After saying that, he stood up, walked to the stove, started a fire, and put the cold dishes on to heat up.

After touching "Gluttony" and absorbing the "Gluttony" mist, it is normal to want to eat.

"Eh? Now isn't the time to think about whether you're hungry? Although it's not bad to be a well-fed ghost, I'm still a little hungry." Jasmine had relaxed her mind and accepted the setting of imminent death.

She sat by the bed, thinking about what wishes she had yet to realize before she died, and how she should do them quickly.

He also thought that if he died, Mr. Su Bei would be alone again. He was so kind, and he didn't know if he would be seduced by the devil and tricked into working for his life.

"By the way, that's a magic sword." Su Bei heated up the food and didn't forget to explain to Jasmine, not noticing Jasmine's psychological changes at all.

As for "Gluttony", he also chose to tell the truth, mainly because he had nothing to hide.

"Oh..." Jasmine said "oh".

Although the facts are scary, if you have already accepted death, there is nothing unacceptable.

But Jasmine was still shocked.

The food was heated quickly. Su Bei put the plate on the table, looked at the restless Jasmine, and knocked on the table.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

"I won't become a puppet."

"If he wants to trade or give you something next time, he is trying to trick you. Don't believe it."

After talking to Jasmine, Su Bei stood up again, picked up "Gluttony" from the pile of debris, and shouted a warning:

"Be honest, if you continue to confuse my people, I will send you away. The Holy Light Church is happy to collect such a magic sword."

It was only after such a long time that Jasmine realized that she was really fine. The dull hair that was hanging down suddenly stood up straight and kept spinning.

"Eh?"

But feeling the strange magic that suddenly appeared in her mind, Jasmine became confused again. She glanced at Su Bei guiltily, not knowing whether to speak or not.

You probably didn’t accept the temptation, right?

Isn't it?

But why did I get magic?

Jasmine racked her brain and couldn't figure it out.
