nOpen World 17

nJiang Xie faced the dull crowd and wondered, “What’s wrong?”

nThe four half zombies smiled awkwardly. After all, this was the boss and they had to hold it in.

nXie Xi didn’t want to curse at him because X really had too many skills.

nThis time Jiang Xie didn’t say anything bad. He was stating facts but not everyone believed it!

nThere was also a countdown for the skill selection. Jiang Xie stared at the goodwill skill before eventually giving it up.

nHe couldn’t use this because it was too hard to explain. What if later the child asked him, “What skill did you open?”

nJiang Xie told him, “I can see how much you like me.”

nThe child, “Oh, you can see how much I like you!

nThe hard work to increase it to 365 would return to minus on one second.

nUm… Jiang Xie thought calmly, ‘A mature man doesn’t need to see goodwill.’ Thus, he changed it.

nXie Xi curiously asked him, “What did you choose?”

nJiang Xie didn’t reply and reached out to grab the air.

nHis fingers were straight and slender and his hands were good-looking. The movements were handsome enough. The group had seen his strength and wanted to know what type of heaven defying skill he had chosen. In particular, the four people had stars in their eyes.

nThe next moment, Jiang Xie spread open his hand and a white rose appeared out of thin air.

nEveryone, “…………………………”

nXie Xi was actually quite calm. Jiang Xie handed the rose to him. “This skill can turn any object and even the air into a rose. However, it only lasts for one minute.”

nThe disabled group of four screamed in their hearts, ‘You took so long to pick yet you chose such a trash skill!’

nJiang Xie asked Xie Xi, “Is it good?”

nXie Xi had no expression on his face while he inwardly wanted to beat up his master!

nIt was lucky that Old Jiang hadn’t chosen the goodwill skill or he would’ve seen a red wave fill his view.

n“What about this?”

nHe drew a circle in the air and countless white roses burst out, falling to the ground like rain. This empty room was instantly covered with roses. The glittering treasure chest was a backdrop and made it look as dreamy as a fairy tale.

nZhu Li, Cao Yan and Zhuo Liu were shocked by the fancy show of love and silently walked away.

nThe only one different was Zhuang Yi who turned into a beautiful woman. He held his face and cried out, “Ah, so romantic!”

nXie Xi, “…”

nHe didn’t even have the strength to vomit. He couldn’t beat them so what could he do? He could only turn around and walk away.

nJiang Xie immediately followed and whispered an explanation, “I might have a lot of skills but many of them are trash. This one is useful.”

nIn fact, Xie Xi didn’t care what skill Jiang Xie chose. His appearance in this open world was already the biggest bug. Still, the skill of changing to rose flowers was… really… really hard to say!

nJiang Xie spoke again, “There are many zombies here and you feel disgusted when you see them. I can turn them all into roses.”

nXie Xi was stunned.

n“I can even use it when you gave people arms and legs. This skill just blinds the eye. The nature of the item remains the same and it will change back after one minute.”

nThe nauseous feeling in Xie Xi’s stomach turned to warmth at Jiang Xie’s words.

nHis chest seemed to have never been so warm and even his voice changed. “I… don’t feel disgusted.”

nJiang Xie smiled, “You just don’t like to look.”

nXie Xi, “…”

nThis throat seemed blocked and he didn’t know what to say. Jiang Xie reached out again and a pale blue rose appeared in his hand.

nXie Xi glanced at it and took it with trembling fingers. He carefully looked at the beautiful flower and asked softly, “Why do you like roses?” His garden was also full of this flower.

nJiang Xie answered, “I don’t know, I just feel comfortable when I see them. It seems that a long time ago, I was in a place full of roses.”

nXie Xi glanced at him. “Your garden?”

nJiang Xie cocked his head. “The garden in Central is a reflection of my spirit. It isn’t real.” Thus, the roses would wither when he was injured.

nXie Xi stared at the rose for a while before whispering, “Very good.”

nThis voice was too low but Jiang Xie heard it. He deliberately asked, “What?” A god level player was pretending to be deaf.

nXie Xi’s ears were red as he cried out, “Nothing!”

nJiang Xie pretended to be deaf. “The rooster was too loud before and I have some tinnitus. My hearing might not be as good as before.”

nXie Xi really believed it and stared at his ears. “Is it serious?”

n“It is okay as long as you speak louder.”

nDid he really not hear it? Xie Xi felt uncertain.

nJiang Xie spared no effort to gain some sugar. “What did you just say?”

nXie Xi, “…”

nJiang Xie sighed. “Fine, if you don’t want to say it then forget it.”

nXie Xi still wanted him to hear it. He paused before raising the volume slightly. “I said… it looks good.”

nJiang Xie pushed him. “What looks good?”

n“The rose…” Xie Xi’s voice was low before he remembered Jiang Xie’s hearing loss and raised the volume. “The roses look good.”

nJiang Xie was very happy to hear it again. “I thought you meant that I look good.”

nXie Xi had never seen such a brazen man!

nSpeaking of which, they came out of the project. The chicken mobilization and I love you VS shameless games were very different. It was hard to say which one was stronger.

nThose with high strength felt more inclined towards the chicken mobilization while those with ordinary strength might say I love you VS shameless. After all, the latter didn’t definitely mean death while the former was really deadly. All the group members were good and received the last treasure chest.

nThe disabled four person team started their exaggerated performance as soon as they came out.

nCao Yan was most like a busker. He strode steadily forward and yelled into the air, “Hah!”

nXie Xi was shocked by him.

nThere was a loud roar and flames spurted from Cao Yans mouth. The lethality was unknown but the effect was really big!

nHis actions caused everyone to look over. Their eyes widened at the fire and some people gave a low cry, “This is the privilege from opening the game!”

nThe second one to appear was Zhu Li. He picked up a stone, threw it and exploded it like a small bomb. This skill was more than the fire breathing technique!

nThe onlookers were stunned. “Did the two of them open the game?”

nSurely the privilege didn’t look like this? It wasn’t very good and was shabby!

nAt this time, Zhuo Liu launched his floating skill. He flew too low so it couldn’t be clearly seen.

nCao Yan was forced to explain for him. “Brother, this floating is very good. It will be useful for a cliff without a bridge.”

nZhuo Liu fell down and gasped. “Well, I can’t go if the cliff is more than one metre away.”

nIt was easy to jump towards a cliff one metre away. What was this floating technique?

nZhuang Yi was also ready and his visual impact was the biggest. After all, a man becoming a beautiful woman who was sexy and charming was too eye-catching.

nZhu Li also came to help him. “Brother, you… this…” He thought for a long time before finally saying, “Your chest is really big!”

nZhuang Yi, “…” He raised his high heels and kicked Zhu Li in the butt.

n“Stinky rascal!” The appearance was a beautiful woman but it was still Zhuang Yi’s rough male voice!

nTheir performance shocked the people around them.

n“What’s going on? Why do all four people have privileges?”

n“It is impossible. The announcement said that only two people have a privilege.”

n“You are silly. How could the privilege be such low level skills?”

n“But the world has disabled skills. How can they…”

nSomeone reacted with shock. “Is it from opening the treasure chest?”

n“Oh my god, impossible! There was such a thing in the treasure chest?”

n“I only obtained a pistol.”

n“We had all our injuries healed.”

n“We only got one meat bun…”

nThis man succeeded in gaining everyone’s attention. “An ordinary meat bun?”

nThe person took out the steamed bun and took a bit before saying with no expression, “The taste isn’t as good as ordinary meat buns. I always feel there is a zombie flavour.”

nEveryone instantly balanced their hearts. This unlucky person was too miserable!

nThe disabled group of four didn’t have to expose their skills. They did it all for Xie Xi. Xie Xi’s heart was hot as he whispered, “Thank you.”

nThey replied softly, “Boss, what are you talking about? We would be dead if it wasn’t for you.”

nXie Xi smiled and didn’t say anything more. The purpose of his rescue wasn’t so noble. It was more for him to clear the game. Still, he felt comfortable that he could save four people.

nAt this time, Xie Xi hadn’t made progress on his follow-up side task.

n(10). Repair 100 people.

nXie Xi shared the new side task with Jiang Xie.

nJiang Xie whispered in his ear, “It is fortunate that you were the one to open the treasure chest.”

nIf they hadn’t managed to open one skill from the treasure chest, Xie Xi’s side task would be really bad. Repairing 100 people wasn’t difficult but so many people meant it was hard to make sure there wasn’t anyone as greedy and ruthless as Yun Die. Saving people would become a shackle.

nNow he wasn’t afraid. The four people had put on a show and they came out together. Everyone would think that this Repair skill came from the treasure chest.

nAs long as there was the premise that killing wouldn’t give the skill, no one would hurt Xie Xi. Such a unique nanny, who would be stupid enough to break their own survival path?

nJiang Xie told him, “Wait for me.” He had a strong nose and could smell everything, including corpses.

nAfter a while, Jiang Xie came back with a bouquet of roses. Xie Xi knew what it was and the corners of his lips raised. “I’m not that delicate.”

nJiang Xie replied, “If I have the skill, why not use it?”

nXie Xi’s eyes curved. “Thank you.”

n“There is no need to say thanks.”

nXie Xi’s heart had just warmed when Jiang Xie deducted points from himself. “You can just kiss me.”

nXie Xi’s smile froze. Then he took the white roses and went to repair people. There were many who were disabled from the chicken mobilization game. After all, it was a game that required fighting the whole time.

nThey were wary of Xie Xi but became stunned once Xie Xi explained his intentions. They had seen the performance of Zhu Li’s group but they couldn’t fathom growing back arms and legs.

nXie Xi gave a bit of an explanation and they couldn’t help becoming excited. “Thank you!”

nXie Xi shook his head and replied, “No need.” He was just clearing his task and didn’t need their gratitude.

nThere weren’t many people missing a limb and he only repaired 12 people.

nZhu Li was moved. “Boss is such a good person!”

nCao Yan cried out, “No wonder why your luck is so good!”

nZhuo Liu added, “A living good deeds!”

nZhuang Yi’s angle was more unique. “The people are so beautiful…”

nThe people who were repaired were about to go down on their knees and shout. If they really lost their arms or legs, they would’ve had to find a master to fix them.

nXie Xi still had 88 people remaining for his task. He wanted to cut off their arms and replace it with a fresh one…

nCough, he was just thinking.

nThere was no one else to fix here but there was no need to worry. After passing the third project, they would enter the underground labyrinth. The number of people with missing limbs would definitely be much higher and he could casually do his task.

nXie Xi said, “Let’s go.”

nThe group of four were very sad about being separated. “Boss…”

nXie Xi told them, “Clear the last project and we’ll see each other in the underground labyrinth.”

nThis made the four people cheer up. “Okay, we’ll see you in the underground labyrinth!”

nThey went to draw the last project and Jiang Xie honestly said, “You do it.”

nXie Xi also didn’t dare use him and drew a card. The name of the project still wasn’t an ordinary game.

nXie Xi muttered, “Dreams come true?”

nWhat type of game was this?

nJiang Xie came over to look. “It sounds very good.”

nThen the zombie teenager in charge of the cards declared, “This is a two person project. The team is allowed and you are about to enter the game.”

nA two person project?

nXie Xi was a bit nervous and glanced at Jiang Xie. “Will it be a fighting match?”

nJiang Xie reassured him, “It’ll be fine. We have the privilege.”

nThe real privilege for opening the game field was a one-time immunity to fatal injuries. In other words, they both had one extra life. It didn’t matter if this was fighting game since Jiang Xie could directly give Xie Xi a life.

nXie Xi said, “Yes, if it is combat then kill me and I will clear another project.” Jiang Xie was stunned before his lips curved. “Impossible, you can only kill me.”

nXie Xi disagreed. “You have bad luck. If I leave you, what if you draw the hardest game?”

nJiang Xie’s heart softened. “Before I met you, the hardest option would appear every time I had to draw something.” It was still like this.

nXie Xi’s heart was pained and he didn’t dare think about what this person had experienced…

nJiang Xie told him, “We are thinking too much. I don’t think the game you drew will be so bad.”

nXie Xi was still worried. After all, the first two games weren’t good.

nThe transfer began and they entered the game. An announcement was heard. “The game is about to begin. Please enter the sleeping cabin.”

nXie Xi saw two sleeping cabins that were placed next to each other.

nJiang Xie opened his mouth, “It is unreasonable. Shouldn’t we be lying on beds if we are sleeping?”

nA double bed would be good.

nXie Xi, “…” He got into the sleeping cabin first.

nThe hatch closed and the game started. Xie Xi felt a thick drowsiness overcome him.

nDreams come true…

nWas this making him dream? If it was his dream, why was it a two person project?

nXie Xi closed his eyes and fell into a deep dream. He was stunned when he opened his eyes again.

nHe sat in a spacious classroom and his head was a mess. He always felt that something was wrong but he couldn’t figure it out. He was in his university classroom? But he wasn’t…

nWhat happened to him? There didn’t seem to be anything wrong.

nYes, he managed to save enough tuition and entered his favourite course. He had been enrolled for half a year. What could be wrong?

nXie Xi pressed a hand to his temple and calmed down. Then the bell rang and the class became agitated.

n“I heard that the new teacher is too handsome!”

n“He got the title of professor at such a young age. Really amazing!”

n“What is the title of professor? The research projects he presided over can change the world!”

n“Is he really handsome? Really handsome?”

n“You’ll know when you see him!”

nXie Xi was speechless. He pushed up his glasses and looked down at the textbook.

nThen the door opened and someone came in. The noisy classroom became quiet, so quiet that a needle could be heard falling.

nWhat happened?

nXie Xi looked up curiously…

nA young man was standing at the podium. He wore a dark grey shirt, his cuffs were raised to his elbows and the hands on the podium were slender and powerful. His low voice rang through the quiet classroom like a cello solo at a concert.

n“Students, I am your Professional Software Technology teacher this semester, Jiang Xie.”

nXie Xi looked up into a pair of different coloured eyes.
