Infinite Hextech, I roam freely across the heavens.
Chapter 26: An Old Acquaintance, A Friend
Physical fitness: 201
Finally, with the sheer number of martial artists around him, his physical abilities improved once again.
Unfortunately, the gap between Class C and Class B is like an insurmountable chasm.
Even though he has now reached a score of 200, the system rating is still C-.
However, he was not discouraged.
After all, he has only been awakened for a short time. In such a short time, apart from not being able to fly and having those fancy superpowers, he is already not much different from the regular version of Superman in terms of physical performance. What more could he want?
Superman needs to bask in the sun, while he only needs bioenergy. He's a clear winner.
After killing the last martial artist, Meng Li showed no intention of searching for the Tianqing Sect, and instead walked out directly.
Rong Heng will naturally clean up the mess for him later.
Apart from this strange celestial book, this world is actually just an ordinary ancient world in every other aspect.
Those so-called treasures were just antiques, paintings, gold and silver jewelry. If the natives of this world saw them, they would definitely be eager to take them into their pockets. But to Meng Li, these things were like dirt, and he felt they took up too much space.
Of course, there are still some great medicines and similar things in this world.
Meng Li had previously eaten a so-called thousand-year-old ginseng.
The effect can only be described as so-so.
It tasted bitter, but Meng Li forced herself to finish it. She then noticed that her constitution had increased by 0.1. From then on, Meng Li lost all skepticism about such so-called powerful medicines.
It's not that the other party is useless; it's just that they don't need such inefficient methods at all.
To his surprise, Rong Heng wasn't waiting for him outside the Tianqing Sect when he came out.
After two weeks of travel, the relationship between the two sides has gradually shifted from initial tension to its current harmony.
They were somewhat like friends, but because they both had secrets, their relationship came to an abrupt end.
There's not much of a romantic storyline to enjoy. On the surface, Meng Li can even laugh and joke with Rong Heng sometimes, but behind the scenes, he never lets his guard down.
The other party seemed to have noticed Meng Li's attitude, so they stopped pretending altogether later on.
Every time Meng Li finished a fight, this so-called ordinary girl would always appear in front of him as he went out, and then congratulate him with her bright, cunning eyes, which were as sly as a fox.
"I hope nothing unexpected has happened."
Both emotionally and rationally, Meng Li did not want anything to happen to the other party.
But just then, a fragrance wafted from somewhere and entered Meng Li's nose.
It smelled somewhat like charcoal, but upon closer inspection, there was also a faint hint of spice. The combination of the two made Meng Li unconsciously feel a bit hungry.
His intuition told him that this must have been Rong Heng's doing.
Following the scent, Meng Li arrived at the source of the fragrance in just a few breaths.
What came into view was a small pot that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, with flames roaring beneath it, causing milky white bubbles to rise continuously from the water.
Meng Li's attention was completely off the pot.
The person who appeared before him was none other than Rong Heng, whom he had been searching for for so long, but her attire was somewhat different from before.
After inviting Meng Li to join the team, although the other party washed away the stains of the beggar's clothes, he wore a light-colored veil most of the time, and his clothes were also a light brown outfit, just like a tomboy.
But she seems quite different now.
She wore a light green short jacket, the cuffs of which were now tightened, revealing her fair wrists as she added something to the pot. Her lower body was covered in neat, narrow-legged trousers, which, although dark in color, gave her a coordinated and capable look.
Of course, the biggest change in her was her long hair. Her hair, which was originally a bit messy, was now tied up at the back with a wooden hairpin, leaving only a few wisps of hair in front of her forehead, making her look delicate and cute.
"Here they are. I just saw that the fish in this river were very fat, and I couldn't resist catching some of them."
"Want to try some?"
As she spoke, she plucked a few chopped wild scallions from the grass, sprinkled them with her left hand, and added a few drops of Shaoxing wine with her right. In just a few moments, she brought out the freshness of the fish many times over, creating a scene that felt like a masterpiece.
Meng Li sat down cross-legged.
Looking at the smiling girl in front of him, whose eyes were narrowed like a little fox, even Sigma Man had to admit that her combination of punches was simply unstoppable.
Who wouldn't want a bowl of hot, fresh fish soup after a fierce battle?
To reiterate, if it weren't absolutely impossible, he probably would have genuinely believed that the girl opposite him was the Huang he remembered.
"How is it?"
He met the girl's question, which was somewhat expectant but she pretended to be indifferent.
Meng Li savored the delicious fish soup in her mouth.
"it is good."
It's not about praising her; she's genuinely good.
This fish soup may seem simple, but she has already brought out the best flavor in it. Compared to the food the young girl made, Meng Li felt like all the food she had eaten before was just stale chicken.
"Hmph, of course it's good."
"I remember someone saying before that there's nothing good to eat in the wilderness. That's just because he's stupid, don't you think?"
"Forehead."
With Meng Li's memory at this moment, she instantly recalled her complaints from a few days ago, but she didn't expect that she would still remember them now.
"Yes, yes, you're absolutely right."
"He who takes a bribe is bound to be obligated to feed it," and Meng Li was currently showing off the delicious food, so naturally whatever she said was right.
The atmosphere between the two was exceptionally harmonious today.
They chatted like that, and soon the whole pot of fish soup was gone.
They ate and drank their fill.
"Why are you being so nice today?"
Meng Li always felt like she was eating her last meal before her execution.
Although the two usually get along like friends, this time is completely different.
At least this time, he truly forgot about scheming and becoming stronger, and instead focused his attention on the bowl of fish soup and the girl in front of him.
The feeling of ease made him feel somewhat unreal.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that Meng Li, who was lying down playing games in the Blue Ocean Federation, was completely dead, replaced by a survivor trembling in fear in other worlds.
What seemed ordinary then is now out of reach.
"Because I like being friends with you."
"My father is very powerful and has a lot of influence, so all the friends I've met since I was little have been scheming. I want to thank you; these past few days have been the happiest days of my life."
The girl looked at Meng Li with bright, sparkling eyes, but this time, through the sunlight on the surface of her eyes, Meng Li seemed to vaguely see the deepest weariness in them.
Instinctively, Meng Li pulled her into his arms.
He didn't know why, but he felt that he should do it now, so he did it naturally.
Even he himself was somewhat surprised; how could he have made such a move if he hadn't been mentally relaxed?
"lecher!"
A blush appeared on the girl's face, but she did not move away. Instead, she nestled in Meng Li's arms and continued talking.
