My portable grandfather refreshes every week

Chapter 117: Grab it and refine it in an instant
The luxury car was parked a few kilometers away at the intersection they had just passed.

The engine emitted a low, weak sound; the car had reached its limit and could no longer be driven.

Numerous car accidents and traffic jams occurred here, and the cries of children and screams of women filled the air, as if the entire city was beginning to fall apart, with the sinister laughter of conspirators echoing throughout.

The giant beast disappeared into the distance. The three of them had survived, but none of them were happy.

Ronald leaned against the passenger-side window sill, his head bowed low. Outside, the wind and rain raged. At that moment, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have lost another person who cared about him.

The music on the phone stopped playing and didn't continue, just like that man would never come back.

A large number of commanders rushed to the scene to handle the accident and maintain order, and search for survivors.

The three children remained silent. In just one day, everything about them changed. The man had gone against their wishes and left the world, never to return.

They could clearly see their own faces reflected in the puddle beneath them, their ugly forms deeply embedded in the asphalt, and the overwhelming sorrow surging within them seemed to devour them.

They looked up, raindrops falling on their faces, and they couldn't tell whether the water in the corners of their eyes was rain or tears.

……

"oi!" Suddenly, a voice came from afar, and the three little ones were startled.

All I saw was a white-haired guy wearing sunglasses waving and running over from a distance, as if he hadn't experienced anything. When he came up to the three little ones, he handed each of them a bottle of drink.

"Hurry up and drink it, we still need to go to the hospital later." Xue Daolu got into the car as if nothing was wrong and casually finished a large bottle of beverage.

This drink, which tastes like a mix of tomato and apple juice, is a testament to the unique tastes of people from another world. Surprisingly, it's the best-selling type of beverage.

The three boys, still in a state of melancholy and depression late at night, were stunned. The traces of tears and raindrops on the corners of their eyes had not yet been wiped away. They watched as the white-haired boy continued to play the next song, "Shout Out My Name," without a care in the world. They were at a loss in the rain.

"What are you standing there for? Get in the car!" Xue Dinglu said directly.

The three little ones got into the car looking completely bewildered. All four of them were soaking wet and didn't know how to start a conversation or what to say.

They had already brewed the saddest emotions in their hearts, all thinking that their teacher would never come back, and their eyes were filled with the image of a lion. But then, the white-haired lion came running back from afar, waving its hand.

No, how did he manage to get back from that battlefield where the giant beast and the super beast seemed to be fighting a world-ending war?

Xue Dinglu seemed to understand the three children's doubts. He chuckled and adjusted the car's ignition, restarting the luxury car. He said, "Teacher was lucky. He managed to slip away in the middle of the battlefield between the two giant beasts and even managed to bring back some spoils of war while he was away."

As the luxury car started, Xue Daolu casually rubbed together a few orbs of light, one for each person. Holding them in their palms would dry their clothes like an electric heater—a practical little trick of holy light.

The three looked at each other, unsure how to survive the battle. But the three little ones smiled at each other.

The luxury car left the elevated highway and had to take a long detour to the hospital. The rousing music "Call Out My Name" kept playing on their phones, and they seemed to be experiencing this indescribable sense of security for the first time.

……

"Hello, Miss Charlotte, we are fellow disciples of that lousy Ronald... Junior Brother. I am the senior sister, and this idiot is the senior brother. We are now studying together under the monarch." Wu Li pointed to Yun Xing, who was grinning foolishly beside her, and looked at the sickly and beautiful girl on the hospital bed.

"Thank you for taking care of Ronald." The girl was lovely, but perhaps due to a long-term illness, she was very thin, so thin that her prominent collarbone was clearly visible through the skin of her neck.

"No need, no need, it's my pleasure, it's my pleasure..." Wu Li and Yun Xing didn't know what to say, so they could only laugh awkwardly and respond. As they left, the two of them elbowed Ronald hard from the left and right.

This embarrassing moment almost made the guy, whose toes were curled up, faint.

The two finally breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the ward. Thank goodness they hadn't embarrassed themselves in front of the young lady. They saw Xue Dinglu sitting outside the door, a ball of blood on his hand constantly changing, as if he was having a great time.

"Teacher, what is this?" Yunxing asked immediately.

"The entire energy and soul of the behemoth." Xue Luding casually uttered something that astonished them.

This was all the energy and soul of that 40-meter-tall behemoth. After killing it, Xue Luding naturally used the properties of the magic ring to grab it and refine it in an instant.

The thick fog was just a few seconds of delay for the refining process; it finally absorbed both the energy and the soul.

Of course, this part of the energy cannot directly form a new magic ring, seemingly because it is incompatible with the energy of Zero Super Beast, thus preventing fusion.

Furthermore, after the Zero Beast finished its transformation, it became completely calm. Now it was like a real dead thing, without breathing or heartbeat, as if it were a statue sitting in the space of consciousness.

However, it still desperately resisted the power of the other giant beast, which Xue Dinglu found interesting.

One person cannot possess the power of two different behemoths.

Watching Xue Dinglu flatten and roll the giant beast's soul in his hands, the two little ones stopped talking and sat down on the other side to whisper to each other.

"I suddenly feel like this little loser is really lucky. Damn it, why didn't I have a rich girl to live off me when I was a kid!" Yunxing said to Wuli with a hint of envy and jealousy.

Although both had their hometowns destroyed and were forced to wander to the capital, the difference in their circumstances was enormous.

This is actually quite normal. He was only discovered to have psychic talent at the age of 11, which allowed him to gain the favor of noble families. The same situation, but different ages, makes a big difference. This little rascal was discovered at the age of 6. For a child that age, all the nobles and high-ranking officials would definitely be their favorite.

He's young, which makes him easy to integrate into the family. Besides, his background is so clean that it's practically spotless in their eyes, and his personality is easy to control. He's practically the best candidate to marry into the family.

In contrast, Yunxing was discovered when she was over ten years old, so her treatment was definitely not as good as that of a six-year-old child. After all, a teenager's values ​​are already formed, and it is difficult for them to integrate into a new family.

However, he has now gained the appreciation of a noble family, and normally he could become a son-in-law of a collateral branch. If the news of him becoming Xue Luding's student spreads, his treatment will probably not be worse than that of the little loser.

The senior sister seemed to think that the little loser and the young lady were a match made in heaven, two lonely people coming together. She had even started to imagine millions of words of a tragic love story in her mind.

……

The two were having a completely nonsensical cross-server chat.

Inside the hospital room, Ronald sat silently on his nominal wife's bed, carefully cutting fruit with a knife.

He didn't know how to start the conversation. It was always the same every time he came here. Although they had been engaged since they were six, Ronald didn't feel it was real. Looking at his fiancée, he suddenly thought of seven years ago.

At that time, he actually had many choices, not just this one. Even the current 13th princess of the royal family was willing to take him in as a son-in-law, even though the princess was more than two years younger than him.

But in the end, he still chose this child. He didn't think too much about it at the time. He just felt that the other girls were all noisy, while she was quietly coughing behind her father. Her sense of loneliness and alienation was very similar to his own.

Sometimes he wondered if it was possible that he wasn't actually sympathizing with the girl, but rather that he was despicably thinking that once the sickly girl died, he could take over all the wealth of the high-ranking official's family.

“Your senior brothers and sisters are all very nice people,” the young lady said.

"Yes, and the teachers too, they all take good care of me." Ronald didn't know how to respond or how to get along with her. He often wondered if it was the seven-year itch, since they had been engaged for seven years.

"They are very considerate of your feelings, and even give you face in front of outsiders, even if it means belittling themselves."

"Ah, I see." Ronald didn't know how to reply, so he could only agree while peeling the fruit.

"By the way, I heard there was a huge disaster outside today. I hope you weren't hurt?"

"Uh, no..."

The guy's robotic replies finally killed the conversation.

Ronald felt his toes digging into the ground, and he kept trying to find something to talk about and end the awkward situation.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better lately? Let me take a look at you." These were the last words he could utter.

"Mmm," the young lady replied softly.

Only then did he place his hand on her thin, bony wrist. At that moment, he silently activated his super-fast regeneration.

For some reason, the young lady's complexion improved significantly in an instant, and her face became slightly rosy.

"Are you feeling any better?" he asked.

"Ah."

The rain was still falling outside the window, and for some reason, they seemed to have remained in this position for a long time.

The rain keeps falling.

……

"See you tomorrow, teacher!" Wu Li returned to the entrance of her apartment. Her working-class parents even came downstairs to thank their monarch-like teacher.

The loser was thrown directly to the hospital by Xue Law. He should stay by his fiancée's side and not keep thinking about going to his senior sister. Besides, Xue Law had also roughly looked at the girl's condition.

Kidney failure and some chronic lung inflammation are not serious illnesses for Xue's Law.

Perhaps it's a bit difficult for this world with its early information age medical level and third-tier magic level, but even with the little rascal's super-fast regeneration, he can recover in a few months.

The young couple no longer have to live like before, with one going to school and the other at the hospital, only able to see each other once every week or two, like they were in a long-distance relationship.

In the end, only Yun Xing was left in the car, but Xue Luding had no intention of taking him home. Instead, he asked, "Do you want power?"

With the car windows closed, Xue Dinglu asked the question inside the car where there were only two people.

Yun Xing, this seemingly hot-blooded fool, clenched his fists tightly this time.

"If you want it, come with me, and I'll tell you all the secrets."
