The Delicate Beauty In the Hegemony Essay - Chapter 55

    Shuning woke up in a small villa.

    The bedroom is decorated in a sea-blue style, fresh and warm. The moment she opened her eyes, Shu Ning almost thought that there was a bug in the system and sent her to the wrong book.

    But Shu Ning didn’t wonder for a long time, with a familiar dizziness, the system transmitted the memory of the new character into her mind.

    Chu Xi is a very lucky child, born in the third year after the great radiation that led to the end of the world, and just turned eighteen this year.

    The big radiation that year caused the global species to mutate. The closer to the radiation center, the higher the degree of biological variation and the higher the mortality rate, and the organisms that can survive near the radiation center , the combat power level is at least three, and the higher is the S level. Naturally, there are strong mutants in other places, but the probability is very low, and they are basically the sons of heaven.

    Chu Xi’s father, Chu Tao, is a master with third-level combat power. After the big radiation, all the surviving humans in the Huaxia Kingdom were transferred to three cities, each of which was jointly guarded by four S-rank marshals. Chu Tao, with his exploits in guarding the sea city, was awarded the title of general and was assigned to a beautiful building. Villa, and also married a beautiful and gentle wife with water power.

    Compared with the children who died in the mouths of monsters, Chu Xi, who has been living in the sea market, is like a little princess living in the castle. Her father’s military exploits allow her to get the best in the sea market for free. Education, gentleness and beauty Although she has supernatural powers, but only uses her supernatural powers to release rain and fog to entertain herself, Chu Xi makes Chu Xi think that as long as she is beautiful enough, she can be like her mother by marrying a powerful supernatural power user. Realize the comfort and enjoyment of the rest of your life.

    So, Chu Xi only regarded her water system powers as a game. When the weather was hot, she would get some rain. The dense rain fell around her, but it would not wet herself. What a beautiful and romantic scene.

    Unfortunately, one month before Chu Xi celebrated her eighteenth birthday, her father, Chu Tao, was going out to do a task. Mother Chu wanted to find a special birthday present for her daughter and went with Chu Tao. , And during this mission, Chu Tao and the others were suddenly attacked by an S-rank monster, killing all of them, and no one survived.

    The parents who sheltered her suddenly lost their lives, and Chu Xi suddenly changed from a child of heaven to a helpless orphan. Although she is beautiful, she has no strong background and supernatural powers to increase marriage chips , The real powerhouse disdains to marry her, but because of her beauty, Zhou Yao, a young general in Haishi, takes in Chu Xi as his little lover.

    The situation changed drastically, Chu Xi finally understood the importance of strength, she practiced her water powers desperately, and turned the water element in the air into water arrows, ice blades, etc. for self-protection and killing enemies weapon. With her change, Zhou Yao also began to take Chu Xi out to do tasks. The increase in strength allowed Chu Xi to regain her little princess’ arrogance and frivolity. Because the male protagonist Qin An killed one of her younger brothers, Chu Xi then He tried to trouble Qin An many times, and finally suffered the consequences and killed himself by the mouth of the monster.

    Because Chu Xi died in the mouth of the monster, the memory that Shu Ning received stayed at the scene where Chu Xi was swallowed by the monster. His heart was beating violently, and he was lying on the bed with weak hands and feet, sweating all over his body.

    It wasn’t until the psychological shadow caused by the monster faded a little that Shu Ning understood why the mission in this world had nothing to do with love. In the city, doing some food business to make money, and then finding a decent man to fight hard, compared to hunting monsters, the difficulty is almost zero.

    “Miss, it’s time for breakfast, is Miss awake?”

    Someone called her outside the door, Shu Ning thought about it and knew that it was Sister Wang, the nanny of the Chu family.

    Because I just read the original book yesterday, Shu Ning’s story about Chu Xi is quite deep. This sister Wang is very loyal to Chu Xi. It was Sister Wang who reminded Chu Xi that she could not rely on men, and that Chu Xi could not be trusted. Only in anger did he cultivate his supernatural powers.

    Shu Ning rubbed his head, got out of bed and opened the door.

    Sister Wang is fifty years old. She is slightly fat and looks very kind. Seeing Shu Ning’s messy hair and the appearance of just waking up, she smiled and said, “Miss, just be lazy, this afternoon. The general and his wife are back, and when the time comes, the wife will take care of you, and you won’t have to sleep if you want to.”

    Shunning:…

    Sister Wang’s words were equivalent to reminding her of the plot, Chu Tao and his wife had an accident the night before their return from the mission, that is to say, the Chu Tao and his wife at this time were already dead.

    No matter what shortcomings Chu Tao and his wife have, they love Chu Xi very much.

    Shu Ning mourned for the couple in her heart, but the plot was the plot, and she couldn’t control it.

    After breakfast, Shu Ning went to the back garden of the villa and told Sister Wang not to disturb her.

    Chu Xi has a memory of how to use supernatural powers, but Chu Xi never used supernormal powers to release anything other than rain and fog before the family changed. Now what Shu Ning wants to do, It is to master the attack method of water-based abilities, and be proficient enough to master it.

    A person’s ability is innate, but the same ability has different effects in the hands of different people.

    At dusk, Shu Ning finally succeeded in condensing a small water arrow and controlled it to pass through a leaf.

    Shu Ning didn’t move, but after a day’s practice, her brain felt slightly tired, and she was still too unskilled.

    At this moment, the military in Haishi finally sent the news of the death of Chu Tao and his wife.

    Mother Chu was directly swallowed by the S-class monster and left nothing. Chu Tao left a black box made of special material, which recorded the whole process of his battle with the S-class monster, and Chu Tao’s last words before his death, asking the top management of Haishi to take good care of his daughter Chu Xi.

    Sister Wang kept crying, and Shu Ning’s eyes were wet when she saw Chu Tao’s last words.

    “Miss Chu, tomorrow the city will hold a memorial service for General Chu and all the soldiers who died in the central square. Please be sure to attend.”

    Shunning nodded numbly.

    After the relevant officials left, Sister Wang hugged Shu Ning and cried even more uncontrollably: “The general is dead, what will Miss do in the future!”

    Shu Ning has calmed down, she is thinking about the situation she is about to face.

    The resources of the sea market are limited, this villa is officially allocated to Chu Tao, not a complete gift. Clothes, food, housing and transportation, like other residents of the sea market, have to be exchanged with merit points, and the currency that used to be has long been turned into stacks of waste paper.

      The points will be converted at a ratio of ten to one, that is to say, if Shu Ning chooses to continue to live in this villa, she can only live for another year with the inheritance alone.

    In the apocalypse, everything is based on strength. No matter how powerful parents are, once they die, the shade that their children can enjoy is limited, and they still have to rely on themselves.

    “Sister Wang, don’t cry, I have supernatural powers. I will hurry up and practice these days. When I have the ability to protect myself, let’s live in a cheaper place.” Shu Ning patted Sister Wang Her shoulders said, in terms of public security, the villa area is the safest place in the sea market. Chu Tao is an old hero, and the favor left behind is still there. In a short period of time, no one should bully her openly, including Zhou Yao, and it is also in the original book. Chu Xi first went to cling to Zhou Yao, not because Zhou Yao forced Chu Xi.

    Sister Wang is still terrified.

    Shun Ning didn’t have much time to waste. After dinner, Shu Ning went on to practice his abilities in the garden.

    According to Shu Ning’s understanding of the various abilities in the original book, in terms of combat power, the water system ability can move mountains and seas and freeze thousands of miles when it reaches its peak. It is not strong, and can only attack with cold weapons such as ice blades and water arrows, and rely on ice shields to protect the body, but because water-type abilities can provide drinking water anytime and anywhere to solve emergency needs, water-type abilities are also popular in the army. Party, mercenary welcome.

    Shun Ning continued to practice water arrows.

    The power of the water arrow depends on the sharpness of the arrow and the release speed. The sharper the arrow and the faster the speed, the stronger the damage to the target. During the day, Shu Ning could only shoot water arrows through a thin leaf. After practicing until one o’clock in the morning, Shu Ning was able to shoot water arrows through branches as thin as a wrist.

    The body and brain were exhausted, so Shu Ning chose to rest first.

    The next morning, Shu Ning set the alarm clock for 6 o’clock to get up. As expected, there were two dark circles under his eyes.

    Sister Wang is more embarrassed than she is, her eyes are swollen from crying, Miss is a pampered vase, and she is an ordinary person who has no superpowers, how will she live in the future. The inheritance that the young lady inherited from the general can indeed support them to live frugally for a lifetime, but this is the end of the world. The young lady has no beauty and inheritance. Sooner or later, she will be targeted by those black-hearted people, and her safety is not guaranteed at all.

    Sister Wang is really worried.

    Shu Ning pulled Sister Wang to the garden and shot down a rose in the garden under the puzzled eyes of Sister Wang.

      Larger plants, the thorns on the stalks are hard, long and sharp, and if you accidentally hit them, you may die.

    Sister Wang covered her mouth in shock.

    Shu Ning gave Sister Wang a look of “Don’t be afraid, I will protect you in the future”.

    This trick worked, and Sister Wang really cheered up again.

    Sister Wang went to cook, and Shu Ning went to Chu Xi’s closet to pick out a long black dress. Today’s memorial service was just a passing scene for her.

    Not long after the meal, a black luxury car parked outside the Chu family’s villa.

    The doorbell rang, and Sister Wang went to open the door.

    Shu Ning was sitting on the sofa in the living room when she heard a heavy and cold voice: “I’m going to attend General Chu’s memorial service. If Miss Chu has not left, you can go with me.”

    “Miss is inside, Master Yao please come in.”

    “Hmm.”

    Shu Ning clenched his fist nervously and looked up at the entrance.

    The person here is Zhou Yao, one of the male tyrants in this book. Before Zhou Yao became a general, he had been working in Chu Xi’s father Chu Tao’s army, and he had also been a guest at the Chu family’s villa. Chu Xi was very fond of him, and Chu Tao and his wife also agreed with the marriage.

      Later, when Chu Tao died, Chu Xi went to find Zhou Yao, and cried so much that pear blossoms carried rain into Zhou Yao’s arms. Zhou Yao understood what she meant and fell asleep to Chu Xi, but he never mentioned that he wanted to give Chu Xi a name.

    Women are just playthings in Zhou Yaoyan’s eyes, low-level and high-level. Before Chu Xi, Zhou Yao had slept with many women. After getting Chu Xi, maybe Chu Xi still has some weight in his heart. Zhou Yao no longer accepted the initiative of other women, and after a period of time for Chu Xi, it was not until Chu Xi died that other women appeared on Zhou Yao’s bed.

     Zhou Yao had a process from disdain to appreciation to admiration towards the male protagonist Qin An, while Chu Xi was purely hostile. Zhou Yao repeatedly warned Chu Xi not to target Qin An, but Chu Xi did not listen , When Chu Xi killed herself, Zhou Yao didn’t feel too sad, and continued to cooperate with Qin An and became one of Qin An’s supporters.

    The male bully Zhou Yao who appeared in front of Shu Ning had a stern and resolute face, wearing a solemn military uniform and black military boots.

    He looked at Shu Ning with the same stern look, without any tenderness.
