I can travel to the past and the future

Chapter 77: Omens of Disaster

While Qiao Yuan was puzzled, he subconsciously looked up at the spot where Charlie had just appeared. It was about ten meters away, on the 147th floor of Unit C of the Jiangnan Building, next to his rental apartment on the 150th floor of Unit D.

A blond boy was still peering out of the bathroom window, shouting at Charlie, "Brother Charlie is so handsome! What's that called again? I want to learn it too!"

Charlie grinned smugly and once again raised his left leg sharply at the young man with the tied-up hair, shouting, "Hey, can't you understand human language? With your level three skill, you're utterly hopeless!"

The young man with the tied-up hair gritted his teeth slightly, immediately realizing that Charlie's talent was extremely terrifying. However, with only a second-tier biological sequence [Awakening], a single kick caused a fracture in his shoulder bone, which was incredibly unlucky.

He wasn't an assassin; he was just a boxer Veronica found at a free-fighting gym, and her purpose was merely to test him...

If he continues to attack while injured, and that guy has a double, his chances of survival are slim.

The intelligence was wrong!

What did that blond boy just say? That he can only be defeated by me? We probably know each other…

The young man with his hair tied up glared at Charlie, snorted coldly, and decided to leave without even thinking.

Qiao Yuan had already figured it out by now, but it seemed that Charlie was just visiting relatives.

Because this road is the only way he takes to and from school every day, if Charlie really lived here, it's impossible that he would never have encountered it.

At that time, he received a call from Yan Baobao.

"Are you alright, Yuan? I just checked the back office and found that the blonde woman has reappeared near the Jiangnan Building. I plan to go after her with Captain He."

Qiao Yuan hesitated slightly before saying, "Don't be impulsive."

"It's alright, don't worry," Yan Baobao continued, "It seems like you've been targeted by someone. It's been confirmed that the two assassins from before were also sent by her. This matter needs to be settled."

"Then, Captain He has authorized the binding of your DNA code to a bionic sparrow from our Ember Bureau, number YJN09524."

"It will fly around you near the Jiangnan Building to protect you, constantly scanning for any dangers nearby and alerting you in real time. It will also be synchronized to our backend. You can register and verify at the smart station now."

Qiao Yuan's heart pounded with excitement: "Wow, this is so cool! Is this a Sparrow bodyguard?"

"Okay, go ahead."

"Alright!" Qiao Yuan couldn't wait any longer. This was great! It was like having an extra pair of eyes, similar to the Night Breathing Technique.

"You bastard!" Charlie suddenly shouted.

Qiao Yuan smiled and said, "Thanks."

Charlie's lips twitched: "Tch, who needs your thanks? I'm just worried you'll get beaten to death. Our match has only just begun."

"Mmm, okay, okay," Qiao Yuan said as he continued walking briskly toward the smart station.

Seeing Qiao Yuan's nonchalant attitude, Charlie couldn't help but snort. Well, that's fine; that's exactly the kind of confidence he wanted from the other party.

If he loses all his fighting spirit after being beaten down by that guy in just a few moves, then he really wasted his time.

He just didn't expect Qiao Yuan to live here; what a coincidence.

"Brother Charlie, who is he?"

Faced with his cousin's question, Charlie immediately cleared his throat: "Just a future loser."

"Huh? Brother Charlie, what do you mean by 'future defeated opponent'? That's a strange way of putting it."

Charlie's eyes gleamed, and he chuckled softly, "You'll understand later. This is the necessary path to becoming strong. Time to eat."

……

Qiao Yuan was verifying the smart station when, as the interface turned green, the bionic sparrow with the number YJN09524 fluttered its wings and flew over, landing on his shoulder.

The little guy is only the size of a palm, very agile, covered with fluffy gray feathers, and at first glance you can't tell it's a mechanical bird at all.

He was quite satisfied. Although it couldn't compare to the perception of the Night Breathing Technique, the bird's vision could see extremely far. Even if it was limited to the vicinity of the Jiangnan Building, it was still quite good.

Qiao Yuan is walking back now. He bought a new batch of watermelons and strawberries, which were scattered all over the ground. He took them all home at once. The little sparrow didn't go in, but flew out on its own, circled around, and landed on the retractable clothes rack outside the balcony of the rented room.

It's like having an extra camera outside the balcony, which is not bad.

However, he only had one thought in mind: to immediately use the 300,000-level flesh and blood gene enhancement fluid. It was still not strong enough, far from enough.

Any one of them is a third-tier advancement. Whether it's advancing to the second tier as soon as possible or striving for a level 20 physique that's bulletproof, it all needs to be put on the agenda.

Although the timeline is strong, the Stand is amazing, and there are Ariel's Wings, summoning magic, and forbidden techniques, these are all essentially hidden trump cards that cannot be used lightly.

You have to be strong yourself to forge iron!

He now takes out 300,000 units of flesh and blood gene enhancement fluid and skillfully pours it into the swimming pool.

After strengthening the flesh and blood, the next step is to use the bone gene strengthening fluid, mental gene strengthening fluid, and white blood cell gene strengthening fluid in sequence, making the most of everything.

……

At that time, Veronica, who was being chased by Captain He, was speeding recklessly in the evening rain. She already regretted it, but was still very angry.

Qiao Yuan's appearance was like a thorn, deeply embedded in her heart, like a fishbone stuck in her throat.

"Fuck, why is this little bastard always so lucky? It's so annoying!"

"Hmph, you'll meet Lord Simon sooner or later; there will be plenty of opportunities in the future!"

In fact, she now understands exactly what Simon values ​​in Qiao Yuan.

It was luck!

Extremely lucky.

From the perspective of their nighttime plan, Qiao Yuan's addition was indeed a great boost, but the more so, the more threatened she felt.

Never mind, we'll talk about it later.

However, her series of actions also increased the importance that Qiao Yuan received from the Tiandu Branch Bureau. Sure enough, everything was in Simon's plan.

Half an hour later.

Captain He stopped the hovercar with a frown in a corner of Chang'an District, East Second Ring Road, the third main city.

Amidst the vast array of Tang-style classical floating pavilions, a towering, silver-gray head-shaped building, five or six hundred meters tall, floats—that is Adam.

The image of Adam in the Garden of Eden.

On "Adam's" face are countless floors lit up with lights, also filled with a certain divinity.

This area, like the one with the metal cross, is an office area under the Twilight Group.

At that moment, Captain He watched as Veronica's sapphire blue sports car crashed violently into a garage, immediately roaring and bursting into a conspicuous blaze. He muttered, "Such a skillful illusion; it must be related to the Twilight Group."

Yan Baobao stood grimly to the side: "The technology of the Twilight Group? Could it be related to Caesar?"

She noticed that what appeared to be a car accident was actually a clever escape, using the modified ejection seat in the sports car to leave the moment of the explosion and quickly disappear without a trace.

Paul, with blond hair, frowned and said, "According to the files from Joyful State, Caesar and the Twilight Group do indeed have close ties. Qiao Yuan has been targeted several times. I think it's pretty much a done deal."

"That's right. In the end, it was Qiao Yuan who provided the clue that Caesar was captured. These guys must be holding a grudge," Captain He shook his head slightly.

At that moment, Sergei, with his black hair and freckled face, rubbed his hands together and said, "Captain? Aren't we going to chase them anymore?"

"We can pursue her, but in my twenty years of experience, it won't lead to anything. We're just a step too late. If we really want to catch her, we'll have to use Qiao Yuan as a base later..."

"Yan Baobao, it's up to you."

Yan Baobao listened quietly and nodded, saying, "Yes, I understand, Captain. I'll talk to him about it later."

Jiang Xiaohan, with her hair in a bun, said indignantly, "These company dogs are so arrogant!"

"Are you hungry? There's a nice local restaurant nearby, my treat," Captain He said with a smile.

……

It was 7 p.m. at the Jiangnan Building when Qiao Yuan had just come out of the golden bath.

My physical fitness level increased by a little over 1 level, and with the cumulative effect from the daytime military training, I officially reached level 15.

He touched his gradually emerging eight-pack abs and began to look forward to his level 20 bulletproof physique.

It's almost here, getting faster and faster.

Qiao Yuan immediately drank the constitution-enhancing potion and continued practicing the Azure Sea Force, quickly reaching more than half of the hundred levels.

Without a timeline, the threat of third-order sublimation is still significant.

He thought that next time he went into the wreckage area, he wouldn't have to use up all his money in the morning, but would wait until he got home in the evening to go in, which would be safer.

Before they knew it, it was late at night. After Yan Baobao got home, she chatted with him for a while about what had happened that evening.

"Use me as a bait?" Qiao Yuan laughed. "That's no problem, but whether we encounter each other again depends on luck."

Yan Baobao smiled as she ate a strawberry and said, "Yeah, I know. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know so I can handle things if something happens."

Qiao Yuan also ate two: "So sweet."

"Not as sweet as you," the baby said with a grin.

"Shall we try it?" Qiao Yuan asked gently, resting his chin on his hand. "Let's see if it's real."

The baby's face flushed instantly, and her little face tensed: "How...how do I taste it?"

"Eat strawberries however you like."

Yan Baobao's face immediately flushed, and she bit her lip slightly, saying coquettishly, "You're such a smooth talker!"

Qiao Yuan laughed heartily, then coughed twice: "So what? I have eight-pack abs now."

"Huh? Let me touch it." Yan Baobao said, stretching out her fair little hand and making a humming sound.

She was clearly shy just a moment ago.

Qiao Yuan increasingly felt that Bao Bao seemed to have no sense of boundaries, but would blush if things got too ambiguous.

Hehe~

A little while later, he cut a seedless watermelon and went to the bedroom with the baby to play games.

The night rain is drizzling, and autumn is gradually deepening.

The following day, August 28th, the ten-day military training officially entered its countdown. The sky was cloudless, and the autumn wind rustled through the treetops.

According to Instructor Zhou, the last three days will be dedicated to intensive training that builds upon the previous seven days of military training.

From the start of military training on the 21st to the 27th, the training consisted of six events: long-distance running, single-finger push-ups, squats, frog jumps, hopping, and race walking. On the 23rd and 27th, due to rain, squats were performed in the classroom.

This morning was a long-distance run, and thanks to improvements in their physical condition and even their training sequence, the time for each lap was shortened to some extent.

Qiao Yuan still remembered that on the afternoon of the 21st, Instructor Zhou's requirements for them were:

The time for the first lap of the second stage is 30 minutes, and the time for the second and third laps is within 35 minutes.

He and Hutu requested that the first lap be completed in 50 minutes, and the next two laps in 55 minutes.

That day he raced against Charlie, and he was several minutes ahead of schedule on each lap.

Today's requirement has been raised to 25 minutes for the first lap of Stage 2, and under 30 minutes for the next two laps.

For both of them, the first lap requirement is within 45 minutes, and the subsequent laps within 50 minutes.

"Hey Qiao Yuan! Shall we start the race five minutes early for each lap?" Charlie shouted confidently at him.

This time, Qiao Yuan readily agreed: "Let's compete!"

Today's competition had no mockery, nor the punishment of calling someone "daddy" for the loser; it was purely for the sake of challenge.

In fact, Qiao Yuan had already seen through Charlie's actions last night. He realized that Charlie was purely competitive and seemed to care more about the value of a challenge than about personal grudges.

He's not challenging himself for the sake of challenging himself, but challenging himself to become stronger. He's quite an interesting guy.

Last night was indeed a coincidence, but it was precisely because of this coincidence that he learned about the more authentic Charlie.

Their subtle understanding of each other puzzled Hu Tumeng Zimo and the others.

"What happened?" Hu Tu scratched his head, becoming more and more confused.

Qiao Yuan smiled and didn't explain. As Instructor Zhou's whistle blew, he rushed out of the starting line.

To explain it properly would be a long story, and some of it is just his guess.

Just like on the 24th, Charlie wanted to compete again, but he said the other party was just trying to endure hardship, so he ultimately refused and postponed the competition to the next day.

But in fact, even though he didn't compete on the 24th, he still achieved the record Charlie mentioned, which inadvertently saved the other party from the embarrassing scene of calling him "Dad" after losing.

Furthermore, by the 25th, the other party had not mentioned the fight again, and their attitude had become quite subtle.

Because Charlie clearly stated on the 24th that he should be given one day to see what excuse he would have then.

Interestingly, Charlie himself faltered the next day, likely due to his success on the 24th, which dealt a heavy blow to the opponent's confidence.

That day, he could have been shouting, but he just looked at it and said nothing.

Because his physique has been increasing rapidly, although he has not yet reached the second-tier strength, he is already far ahead in the first-tier sublimation range.

In a normal fight, you can't possibly lose!

His physique has improved from level 7 to level 15, more than doubling, because he started from a very low level, plus the benefits of the Eternal Great Luo.

These geniuses all possess powerful physiques at level 20-something, but to say they can level up to 40-50 in just a few days is a bit unrealistic.

He didn't know how Charlie managed to regain his composure and rekindle his fighting spirit.

It's probably related to his victory over Lu Qiuhai on the 26th, but I'm not sure.

He's an interesting guy overall; these past few days have exceeded my initial impression.

He was lost in thought during the journey, and before he knew it, the morning assessment was over; time flew by.

He maintained a time of 42 minutes for all three laps, a significant improvement from his 48 minutes on the first day of military training. Compared to Charlie's second-stage record today, he is still 30 seconds ahead!

Charlie looked slightly dejected and sighed softly, "A bet's a bet, you can tell me, but we'll continue this afternoon."

"Just lunch will do," Qiao Yuan said with a smile.

"No problem, hahaha, you really get my blood pumping. I'm sure I'll win the push-ups this afternoon."

At that time, Ye Yutang, Finn, Hu Tu, Meng Ziming, and even Jin Yunxi, Luca and others did not quite understand the specifics of their conversation.

Tu Shanlin also cast a curious glance at him.

I clearly remember that a few days ago, the conflict between Charlie and Qiao Yuan was known to everyone in the Yaoguang Class.

Ye Yutang exclaimed in shock, "They seem to really appreciate each other! Could they be attracted to each other? I've heard that guys often get attracted to each other because of working out."

Finn was speechless for a moment, but also secretly pleased. Good, good, this crazy woman has finally brought trouble to Qiao Yuan. That's great.

Qiao Yuan didn't care about any of that. When they got to the cafeteria, he simply asked Charlie to pay for his and Tu Shanlin's lunch, since they hadn't specified how many bowls they would have eaten.

Charlie paused, surprised, when he paid: "You...you're having two portions? Wait, isn't this Tu Shanlin's?"

Qiao Yuan smiled and nodded.

"You bastard!" Charlie suddenly couldn't hold back anymore. It was one thing to annoy him normally, but to make him buy food for both of them was just outrageous.

Hu Tu, who had been following closely, was also stunned by Qiao Yuan's actions and couldn't help but laugh, "What the hell is going on between you two?"

Qiao Yuan shook his head: "What's going on? Eat yours." After saying that, he took his lunchbox and walked out of the cafeteria to meet up with Tu Shanlin.

"Pah!" Hu Tu resentfully raised his middle finger: "I'll laugh myself to death if your sister finds out one day."

Qiao Yuan's lips twitched: "You're such a jinx!"

He then went outside the cafeteria to the gray pavilion where he had eaten with Tu Shanlin before.

He handed over the lunchbox with a smile and said, "Lunch is free today."

Today, Tu Shanlin is wearing a rather relaxed, preppy-style bright yellow sweater with cute animal patterns embroidered on it, such as kittens and pigs.

Below, she wore a knee-length beige tiered skirt and gray leggings, which looked quite fluffy.

She wagged her large, snow-white tail slightly, her face flushed, and muttered, "You made him pay?"

"Yeah, hehe," Qiao Yuan said, sitting down to eat. "It feels like the weather is getting colder and colder. Will it snow here very early?"

"Yes, it'll probably snow around November, and it'll snow harder towards the end of the year," Tu Shanlin said, a hint of anticipation in his golden eyes. "You...you like snow?"

Qiao Yuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, snow is great! Whether you're having a snowball fight outside or staying warm at home, it's very comfortable. What about you?"

Tu Shanlin listened, his eyelashes fluttering slightly, and he smiled with narrowed eyes: "Me too, I like to stroll in the snow."

She suddenly felt a sense of longing, secretly thinking that this year's snowy day would surely be even more romantic.

Gradually, she and Qiao Yuan continued eating separately. She was not good at conversation, but she was very interested in whatever Qiao Yuan brought up.

Just like I thought yesterday, even without speaking or exchanging words, this pleasant atmosphere, with the occasional chat being just right, creates an indescribable sense of peace that I haven't experienced in a long time.

Qiao Yuan would sometimes watch Tu Shanlin drink fish soup with a look of satisfaction, his big eyes always squinting. He really looked like a well-behaved kitten, no, much cuter than a kitten.

As he looked at it, he subconsciously remarked, "You seem to really like eating fish."

"Yes, Du," Tu Shanlin smiled sweetly, "My mother used to like to make these for me... especially those dried small fish. Hmm, I'll bring some for you to try tomorrow."

"Okay, thanks Lin," Qiao Yuan laughed. "I'll catch more fish for you next time."

Tu Shanlin's eyes lit up immediately, and his smile became even sweeter, but the reminiscence in his eyes also became stronger.

Qiao Yuan hesitated slightly, vaguely sensing the little fox's delicate and tender emotions, a mixture of happiness and a touch of disappointment.

Considering that Tu Shanlin mentioned her mother when they went to Zijingwu earlier, and her strong obsession with becoming the Fox King, it is possible that her mother has already passed away.

After thinking about it, he ultimately said nothing; such things were inherently sad.

In the afternoon, he and Jack continued to compete in one-finger push-ups. This time, the opponent had a clear advantage, and the final time was almost equal. This reminded him of the opponent's hard training on the 22nd, where he trained until noon without eating.

But Charlie wasn't satisfied and shouted at him after school, "Keep it up tomorrow."

Qiao Yuan nodded slightly. These days, a fight without any hostility was quite good for him.

By comparing oneself with a second-tier genius, one can get detailed feedback on one's own strength improvement.

Everything was normal on the road tonight. Almost as soon as he left the east gate of the school, the little gray sparrow with the number YJN09524 flew over.

This feels really good.

He estimated that Simon wouldn't be sending anyone else for the time being; they would probably change their approach.

Leave it alone.

All he wants now is to make money, become stronger, keep making money, keep becoming stronger, until he is strong enough.

Tomorrow is the 29th, and the long-awaited horse racing is finally here. You can predict the future and place your bets tonight!

He suddenly realized that he had only been able to foresee the future on the morning of the previous few occasions.

But if he could foresee the future tonight, then once the money arrives in his account tomorrow, he can buy the medicine and go directly into the wreckage area!

It was one day earlier than he had planned.

The original plan was to use up the time limit on the 29th and then enter again on the 30th.

Upon arriving home, Qiao Yuan immediately opened the Royal Horse Racing website to place bets. As usual, he placed the minimum bet first, and then decided to increase his bet or switch opponents to go all in based on the outcome of the bet.

Qiao Yuan quickly entered the future based on the anchor point.

Half an hour has passed in the future timeline.

hiss!

Back in reality, Qiao Yuan had a somewhat complicated expression. He had just received good news and bad news.

The good news is that this horse race was an unexpected dark horse race, and based on his all-in bet, the winnings were a whopping 1300 million!

A true overnight fortune.

The bad news is that tomorrow's headlines won't feature any dark horse, nor will they show anyone who made a fortune through betting, or someone who went bankrupt and committed suicide.

It was an air raid siren coming from the neighboring New London Sky City; they were under attack!

A dense swarm of colossal skeletal pterosaurs, exuding an aura of death, whether from the surface or an invasion from the multiverse, launched an attack on New London.

Although they are 500 kilometers away from Silvermoon, a very long distance, the number of monsters is enormous; it is currently estimated that there are already over a thousand skeletal pterosaurs…

The antimatter shield of New London is fully activated, and the front lines are in a state of war.

He pondered, gradually calming down; it was just another day under the invasion of the multiverse.

As long as it doesn't affect Silvermoon City.
