I'll forge a new destiny

Chapter 8 The Principle of Rewards

Zhang Xing suddenly realized something.

‘Perhaps, the counterattack of fate begins the moment the node appears. ’

There were many thoughts about fate in the past life. For example, everything you resisted against fate would push yourself towards that fate.

As for the fate of the watermelon rind itself, he now has some guesses.

Judging from the tributary that he first triggered, the Watermelon Pi and Captain Wende and his group should have been sunk by Bai Ge and the others in the Seventh Channel. But Xiguapi, who only has ignorant consciousness, is powerless no matter what he wants to do.

In the end, it may be the same as now, with only an anchor left, carried to an unknown place by the wonderful currents in the turbulent sea.

But looking at these precious materials for constructing the anchor, and taking into account the captain's last name, I believe that as long as it is still in the sea, sooner or later, the angry watermelon peel will set off huge waves and launch a belated revenge.

And there is no need to think too much about what an angry child who cannot vent his hatred but has power can do.

Zhang Xing smacked his lips when he thought of the powerful feeling he felt when he awakened, which was unlikely to be an illusion.

The rewards from the system are really hard to get, and I almost let that fate come to an end.

Although he helped Watermelon Peel vent his hatred and prevented Watermelon Peel from entering the ocean current, as long as he couldn't control it at all, the beast of the ocean current might appear in advance in the future.

"By the way, if I really become a pervert, does that mean I have changed my destiny?"

[Things have not happened yet, this is unknown]

"You are a system after all, and you don't know this?"

[Because I am the system, I don’t know. 】

After being stunned for a moment, Zhang Xing nodded clearly.

"Yes, if you could know whether there would be a change before it happened, and what it would be like after the change happened, then there would be no need to reward me for the appearance of the tributary of fate."

[The existence and direction of all tributaries are unknown, they may be good or bad and cannot be predicted. The reward can only be extracted after the host actually causes the node to cause a tributary, and the reward level is determined by the difference between the variables and the fixed number. 】

"I understand, so I won't be rewarded for not letting the future watermelon rind appear before. After all, in the original destiny, there won't be a watermelon rind coming out to cause trouble at this time. On the contrary, if I am really perverted , then there is a high probability that there will be a reward, but I may not be the same person at that time."

In that case, no matter how big the reward is, it will be meaningless.

Hold the watermelon rind tightly and feel the closeness like blood connection.

"And the strange object of destiny is a reminder, or a preliminary task. As long as my entanglement with it is deep enough, it may be able to trigger a strong enough tributary to change the distant future."

【Yes. 】

"It's like a fucking cake. I'll find you a suitable street light another day."

Carrying the watermelon rind, Zhang Xing joked and laughed to himself, kicking the sand under his feet and shaking his body.

The seawater thrown out from his body was proof that he could still control the currents, but the distance and scale were a little smaller.

"But as long as there is a bright future, it's okay to develop. Let's develop slowly."

Walking along the coastline, the footprints of different shades on the beach gradually become unified and become shallower and shallower.

Zhang Xing learned to let the watermelon rind restrain its own weight. Not only did it not oppress him, it also no longer weighed on other things.

Only in this way will the enemy ignore this strange weapon.

After all, it is only so big, so what kind of lethality can it have?
  Along the way, Zhang Xing saw a lot of debris besides sand.

Whether it's from a boat, a person, or a fish or beast - of course, it's not all that new.

It was obvious that Zhang Xing was very lucky. The island he chose to be transported to by the unknown current was a not-so-remote meeting place. From time to time, new unlucky people would die on the coast.

And judging from the fact that the coastline is still extending after he has walked for so long, this island is not much smaller. This means that if he has better luck, this island may even be a supply station on a regular channel in the turbulent sea.

In that case, he might have a chance to ride the boat.

"If you say that, you can't continue on this path."

Zhang Xing's vision deflected, and his enhanced vision after awakening allowed him to see the surging ocean currents and some small fish living near the sea through the blue water.

They are not big in size, but they are fierce compared to each other. They are constantly fighting for territory in the offshore reefs, tearing each other and all kinds of meat from unknown origins.

‘Reef~’

After thinking about it, if this is really a supply station on the waterway, then this coast with no artificial traces, no natural deep-water port, and full of reefs should not be a place to dock.

Plus, along the way, shipwrecks can be seen everywhere on the coastline...

‘Even if there is a boat, it probably won’t be visible from here. ’

All that can be seen are broken. If you hope to use these things to cross the turbulent sea, it is better to just go into the water and swim across.

Turning around, Zhang Xing kicked a piece of deck in front of him and smashed a shell monster that had been hidden under the deck for a long time. It didn't know if it was a hermit crab or something, but it rushed towards him when it saw the light.

Turning my back to the tide, I took steps to leave...

"By the way, if the awakened person eats this thing, it should be fine, right?"

Zhang Xing, who walked two steps and then came back, squatted in front of the prey that he had knocked to death, with a hesitant look on his face.

But it must be mentioned that he hasn't eaten for a long time - after the Watermelon Pi sank, he didn't know how long he floated in the ocean current.

Even on the Watermelon Pi, Zhang Xing never drank a sip of water. He was fighting from beginning to end.

"The meal that Charles ate should not be counted on me, and he vomited like that, and it was as if he had not eaten. So I should eat a little, otherwise I will encounter something later. If I don't It’s going to be troublesome if you’re strong.”

Zhang Xing took off the claws of a hermit crab and looked at the raw meat with some hesitation.

He had to eat something anyway, even if he didn't eat for a while now.

Even if he was so lucky that he could see a docked ship just by crossing the island, he would have to give himself the ability to hit the ship before he could appear in front of those people.

"Every ship on the sea is a separate kingdom, and an aggressive one at that."

This is what Captain Wende taught his crew. The example is Baige and his two ships. Zhang Xing has no intention of objecting to this sentence until there are other examples.

As for the fruits on the island, he would never dare to touch them. There was no telling what effect those things would have. And he doesn't plan to go to sea again. Looking at it now, there should be no safer meat on this coast than this thing in front of him.

There was indeed some ready-made bacon on the broken ship, but it was hard to tell what kind of meat it was.

Resonance checked the body and made sure there were no wounds...

'Hopefully it won't squirt. ’

With the sound of waves, Zhang Xing started his meal.

This person would easily have random thoughts when he was eating without his mobile phone, and as he thought about it, he would feel that something was wrong.

‘Wait a minute, since the captain and the others were sunk in the original destiny, then Baige and the others will definitely not follow them to feed the fish. Now that I have sunk them together, shouldn't it have any impact? ’

He asked his system.

"Even my survival is a tributary of fate. Bai Ge is considered a strong man regardless of whether he should say it or not. Unless he washes his hands after finishing this job, there is no way that such a person will be gone without explanation." Damn it...you're not taking a kickback from my reward, are you? ’
