Offer your allegiance to Chaos!

This is not a small amount. There are two areas where the happiness value is applied, the attribute value and the skill column. The upgrade of attributes and skills all increases exponentially. The three items of physical strength, intelligence and charm are the first upgrade. It takes 1 points, 2 points for the second time, 2 points for the third time, [-] points for the fourth time, and so on.The same is true for skill level improvement, from LV[-] to LV[-], it is [-] points, and then doubles exponentially.

According to Ashe's estimation, among the three attribute values, 20 should be the normal level of ordinary human beings, and every time he goes up a level, the effect will increase exponentially. For example, his charm of 25 points when he was born is considered rare The handsome men and beautiful women he has now added to his charm of 30 points are almost approaching the limit of human beings. As the doctor said, he can completely avoid all the evil feelings of women by relying on his face—even if it is the absurdity of secretly recording their menstrual periods. lift.

Of course, the attribute value is only the most basic item, and the greatest benefit to him from the Book of Slaanesh is the later talent and skills, especially the talent column.

Well, although the title of "Pink Book" seems a bit subtle, and the subdivision ability after that is also weird, just like the standard configuration of the little yellow book, but both of them are powerful abilities beyond the ordinary.

For example, Ashe has been with him since he was born [Blood Food]. He can use the blood of the opposite sex as food to replenish energy, heal his own diseases, and treat other people's diseases to a certain extent.

Just like the hemodialysis Ashe did to Lapland before going to sleep tonight, he can inhale the ore disease components in Lapland's blood, and to a certain extent, suspend the spread of the origin stone crystals.

You must know that on this continent of Terra, ore disease is famous all over the world as the number one incurable disease that has no cure. Tens of millions of people are lingering under the scythe of death because of it. Pharmaceutical companies like Rhodes Island consume It is difficult to find a cure for it even after spending huge sums of money, and even trying to maintain life, it can be called the devil among devils.

And Ai Xiguang can suppress the proliferation of origin stone crystals in the body by sucking blood. Once this news is spread, it may cause half the world to go crazy. Countless forces will try to catch him as a guinea pig and develop a cure. The method of ore disease.

It was also because of this that Ashe and Laplande chose to conduct hemodialysis in the dead of night in the most secret bedroom.

This shows how buggy this talent is.

And the ability of blood eating such a bug is only at the forefront. Every talent and skill after it has a terrifying power that far surpasses it.

However, for Ashe, he doesn't really care about the strength of these talents and abilities.

In comparison, he cares more about the setting of [Happiness Value] itself.

Ashe is a pure hedonist. He lives in this world and does not pursue any long-term ideals or great careers, nor does he intend to explore the meaning of life. He only dances for the happiness in front of him, just like a happy prince .

And what ability can make Ashe more ecstatic than "quantifying happiness"?

No need to go through emotional chewing and rumination, after doing a certain behavior, Ashe can immediately feel the happiness brought to him by the increase in the joy value in his mind. This kind of ultimate perception of happiness itself, It will bring double happiness again, it will give Ashe an unprecedented "sense of gain", and then stimulate the secretion of dopamine in his brain.

There is no ability more suitable for him than this. Even if you leave behind those messy talents and skills, Ashe is already satisfied with this ability to quantify happiness.

Yes, joy, praise joy.

Tomorrow, I will go to Penguin Logistics, and I will meet old people I am familiar with, and I will also enter an unfamiliar field. I hope that by then, everything new will bring new happiness.

Ashe, the hedonist, slowly fell asleep with expectations for tomorrow as always.

Chapter 3 Dream and Red

That night, Ashe dreamed about his previous life again.

The past of more than 20 years, full of ashes from the years, freezes like an old slide, playing back scenes one after another.

He is a child of Shiwan Dashan. He was born in a poor mountain village. His ancestors have lived a miserable life with their faces facing the loess and their backs facing the sky. In this area, life is easier, but it is full of bloody money, which has dirty the hands of too many people and the hearts of too many people.

Aixi didn't know what his biological father looked like. His mother was the most beautiful girl in the village, but she was raped by the son of a rich businessman who went out to gamble with a bunch of cronies and became pregnant. Abortion was not allowed, so the girl had to give birth to Ai Xi in the mud-tile house weeping blood.

People in the village pointed at him, and his family didn't like him. His grandparents never hugged him once. Even his mother regarded him as a traitor, and even threw him in a bucket to drown him, but listen His breathless crying and howling finally moved his heart of compassion, and he lived through the first year with Ashe in his arms.But the good days did not come with the passage of time. Grandpa's eye disease worsened and died. After all, his mother married Lai Han, who had been a bachelor for half his life in the village. Therefore, Ashe's earliest memories were accompanied by beatings and insults. When he was five years old That year, Laihan became addicted to drugs, so the house was left empty, and the humiliation and beating of Ashe and her mother intensified.

The end of all the tragedies was when he was six years old, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and killed the Laihan. While he was asleep, he pierced his eye socket, throat and temple with a handful of sharp glass shards, and stabbed him seventeen times. .And his mother, that cowardly and cowardly woman, was not afraid or surprised when she opened the door, but just wrapped up the little money she had secretly saved and gave it to Ashe, and sent him out of the village, taking advantage of the night. Crossed the border and turned back.

Without waiting for the flames and hustle and bustle of his home in the village, Ashe, who is naturally wise, knows what her mother's final choice will be, but what can he do?How to stop this woman who has been in despair for half her life?He could only walk all the way to the other side of the boundary marker.

Ashe was a smart kid, his mother knew it, and he knew it, so he survived the border after all.He joined a small group of homeless children who made a living by selling various local products to tourists. He was young, good-looking, and smart-mouthed, and soon got a lot of achievements. The most important thing is , he is smart, smarter than anyone imagined, so in just one year, relying on a few words from tourists and a simple dictionary borrowed, he miraculously learned basic daily conversation and sales terms in seven languages , the pronunciation is even far more fluent than that of college students in this major, and he became a hot little star in that small town for a while.

Relying on this talent, at the age of nine, Ashe stood out from the street children, and was appreciated by the older children, and even the adults behind the scenes, and was entrusted with a heavier task to teach the children foreign languages ​​and dialects. technology, and manage some simple accounts.

During this period, Ashe was like a sponge that could never absorb water. With an endless hunger for knowledge, he almost frantically obtained books from all channels within his reach, learning mathematics, finance and accounting-related knowledge , and quickly surpassed all the relevant people he could come into contact with, from the owner of the small supermarket in the town to the members of the financial department in the organization. So, at the age of 11, he miraculously, at the age of a child, Was formally absorbed into the organization's finance department.

It was at this time that he finally came into contact with the deepest dark side of this organization—the sale of local products and begging by vagrants were only the most fringe businesses of this organization, and its main business, like most criminal organizations on the border, was abduction, trafficking du and smuggling.

——Yes, traffickers.

Therefore, at the age of 15, Aixi produced a large amount of cyanide through self-taught chemistry, collected raw materials from various sources, and poisoned almost everyone in the kitchen when organizing a New Year party for all senior and middle managers.

And through careful preparation in the past three years, with almost all the liquid funds in the organization, using a false identity to board the train, crossing several countries, arriving at a certain port, hiding in a container, and boarding a freighter heading to the other side of the ocean .

From then on, the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high for birds to fly.

On the other side of the ocean, Ashe was not in a hurry to make a career or enjoy a hard-won happy life.With [-] US dollars, he rented a small attic in a Chinese community for five years. During this period, he frantically bought all the books he could find, ranging from astronomy, geography, mathematics, biology to accounting programming Etiquette and fitness are like a blue whale swimming in the sea, devouring all the knowledge in this world.

It was the most peaceful and happiest time of his life.

He is a genius, and he has never been as sure of this fact as he is at this moment. In just five years, he has learned almost all disciplines, mastered six languages ​​​​at the graduate level, and taught finance and computers at the core. In terms of the two main directions of attack, he considers himself no less than any professor title holder in the Ivy League University.

He even independently created a new financial derivative product. Although it has not been put into the market, he is sure that as long as this financial derivative product enters the attention of Wall Street, it will inevitably arouse the enthusiastic pursuit of major capital giants.

And it is.

He was 20 years old that year, like a dragon entering the sea.

Under the packaging of a highly educated banking family elite who spent a lot of money, he quietly stepped into Wall Street, and using the financial derivatives as a fuse, he ignited a grand fire in the capital market.That is a big picture with a Ponzi scheme as the core idea, rooted in the inherent greedy nature of human beings, just like tulips and bitcoins, he created leather bag companies, manipulated public opinion, hyped concepts, and played with stock prices. , JP Morgan Chase and the Commonwealth Bank cooperated vertically and horizontally, and launched a silver bullet offensive against the editors and reporters of the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg and the Associated Press. In the short but long five years, he became the hottest new star on Wall Street Countless stock investors who are more brainless than leeks pursue him as the godfather, and countless rich people know that it is a trap but still cannot bear the greed in their hearts and fall into the fishing net.

Until the age of 25, the fire finally ignited everything, and he swept away tens of billions of dollars and flew away.

The Ponzi scheme is a business doomed to bankruptcy from the very beginning. Ashe knew that this legend would end in tragedy. He also knew that he had countless safer choices, although he could not achieve such an achievement in just five years. , but can enjoy the wealth and glory of the whole life.

But he still chose to do so.

Maybe it's because of the self-destructive tendencies hidden in his heart, maybe he's been dead since that fire-burning night more than ten years ago, and what's alive now is just a body that pursues bliss and plays with life.

-

Ash woke up from the dream.

It's been a long time since he dreamed about his previous life. He sat on the bed in a daze for a long time, until Laplande next to him turned over, opened his eyes in a daze, muttered and pushed He: "Hey... it's time to cook."

It was Ashe's turn to cook for breakfast this morning. Ashe looked at Laplande, and for some reason, suddenly laughed.

Forget it, it's all a matter of the previous life, what else do you care about.

He stretched himself, got up and changed his clothes, went to the kitchen, and started cooking.

Today's breakfast is soft-boiled poached eggs. It's easy to make. Ashe breaks the eggs, pours them into the pot, turns on a low heat, adds some sugar to the egg yolks, turns them over, and pours two cups of milk into the microwave to heat .

The meal was ready quickly, but when Ashe brought the steaming hot poached eggs to the table, there was no sign of Laplande. He sighed, knowing that this guy was lying in bed again, and was about to pour a glass Cold water was poured on her head, but she heard a knock on the bedroom door.

It was a rare visitor to visit at this time, Ai Xi walked to the door out of curiosity, and opened it.

Fluffy gray wolf ears poke in, followed by a head of waist-length gray hair. The owner of the long hair has a beautiful face, but that face seems a bit inorganic, or indifferent. She was in a natural daze, like a little she-wolf just waking up.

She was wearing a red-toned jacket and black tight trousers. She was tall and well-proportioned, with the explosive power of a cheetah hidden in her well-proportioned curves. A person with an aura that can violently kill at any time.

Rhodes Island operator, Red, one of Ashe's best friends on the island except for Laplande.

"Red, here to send Ashe off."

Tilting her little head cutely, Hong rushed forward and hugged Ashe.

Ashe was caught off guard, but soon his face was full of smiles. He reached out and stroked the red plush wolf ears, narrowed his eyes, as happy as stroking a dog—in a sense That said, he was indeed stroking the dog.

It is difficult to explain the relationship between Ashe and Hong in simple words. This wolfhunter picked up by Kelsey from the Far West is a natural executioner and executioner. It is as violent as a wild beast, and its killing methods are efficient and cruel. It is also one of the evil stars that should not be approached by strangers on Rhodes Island. Not to mention it can cure children from crying, but timid operators will walk around when they see red. That's no joke.

Especially for the Lupus, red is almost their natural enemy. Just the touch of smell can make them tremble with the terrifying premonition of being targeted by a large predator.

It can be said that except for a few people such as Kelsey and Amiya who can have normal contact with Hong, everyone else avoids her.

Ashe is naturally one of these few people. However, unlike Kelsey and Amiya, he neither owes Hong the great favor of rescuing the wolf's lair, nor does he, as the leader of Rhodes Island, treat all operators All are treated equally.

He is simply keeping dogs.

The method is to feed.

Aixi is very good at cooking, and Hong is a very gluttonous child, especially a child with sugar addiction. After being given brown sugar water by Aixi for the first time and becoming addicted to the sweetness in it, Hong has been looking for Aixi time and time again. Ask for similar desserts, and Ashe is also very generous. Every time, she will specially make a table full of desserts for Hong. The luxurious style is enough to make the pastry chefs in the Rhode Island cafeteria die of shame.

Hong is a very good-natured child, she is just not good at communicating with others, but she will not treat anyone who is willing to take the initiative to contact her, but she is helplessly famous, as the leading fighter among Rhode Island fighters , she was born to have established a bottomless gully with others, and naturally no one dared to take the initiative to contact her.

Ashe was different. As a hedonist, when was he afraid of death?

Not to mention a puppy like Hong who looks cruel on the outside and is well-behaved on the inside, even if a large pack of female wolves really came, Ai Xi would dare to rush into the pack of wolves to give them away in order to get a couple of furs.

Therefore, under Aixi's straightforward offensive, Hong quickly fell. Now, even for Kelsey, she may not have such a high degree of favorability for Aixi.

Of course, liking doesn't necessarily mean being in love. This kid probably doesn't even understand what love is, and just treats Ashe like a family member.

And Ai Xi has no intention of letting this simple friendship deteriorate. For him who is a hedonist, a friendship between opposite sexes that is so simple that it is almost impossible to find in the secular world is far more important than the love and desire that can find countless substitutes at any time. Precious—rare things are more valuable, just like Laplande.

However, if it doesn’t go bad, it doesn’t go bad, and the body still needs to look good—it’s not the appearance after taking off the clothes. After all, in terms of body shape, Laplande’s thighs are far better than Hong, and Ashe only has red ears and a big tail.

A big fluffy dog, isn't it ten times better to rub than big white legs?

Just like now, Ashe led her into the dormitory while rubbing her red ears.

Just entering the room, seeing the soft-boiled poached eggs on the dining table, Red blinked.

"Knowing Hong's arrival in advance, and making breakfast for Hong... Hong, thank you Ashe."

In fact, it wasn't made for you... Ashe opened her mouth, but just shrugged her shoulders, letting Hong misunderstand, anyway, Laplande is still lying in bed, and it won't be too late to make another one later.

Sugar was added to Ashe's soft-boiled poached eggs, turning them into real sugar-filled poached eggs, which doubled the lethality to Hong, a patient with severe sweet addiction. She bit down and squinted her eyes.

"good to eat."

Ashe walked to the dining table, added some sugar to the hot milk, and brought it to Hong's eyes: "Eat slowly, don't choke."

Hong picked up the milk and drank it in a big gulp, but stuck out her tongue when it was hot, and looked at Aixi in frustration, sticking out her tongue, like a big dog busy cooling in summer.

Seeing Hong's lovely appearance, Ashe's slightly depressed mood due to last night's dream also improved a little.

Yes, why care about the trivial matters of the previous life?Living in the moment and enjoying yourself in time is enough for him who has experienced too much.

Chapter 4 Chess pieces

Anticipating that Hong must have more than this small amount of appetite, Aixi came to the kitchen, took out the sweet and sour pork ribs that she made at noon yesterday from the refrigerator, heated them up, and brought them to her.

The way the little wolf gnaws on the bones is very special, like biting into soft butter, her canines tear open the hard bones, making a toothache bang sound, after sucking the bone marrow, she bites again and again The rest of the bones are chewed and swallowed without any residue, which is environmentally friendly and clean.

It looks like it is a terrifying appearance that does not dare to make people have bold ideas.

However, contrary to this horrible way of eating, her eyes are always pure and flawless, with a hint of happiness because she is indulging in the pleasure of appetite.

Just looking at her, Ashe could feel her heart being cleansed.

In a person's life, there will always be a few moments that make people want to keep the hour hand at this moment forever, perform it in a circle, and get eternal happiness from it.

This moment, for Ashe, was such a happy moment.

Unfortunately, the warm atmosphere didn't last long. With a big yawn, the white-haired girl in cool pajamas, showing almost her entire arms and legs, came out from the bedroom door.

"I said, why didn't you call me, and just secretly started eating—"

Laplande has a slight feeling of getting up, and her mind is still in chaos. When she saw someone eating at the table, she thought it was Ashe eating alone, but after a while, her rationality still came to her senses—how could there be two people?

So, rubbing his eyes, Laplande stared.

At some point, Hong also stopped the action of destroying the bones in her hands, and stared straight at Lapland, to be precise, it was Lapland's big fluffy tail.

Her expression didn't change, but she unconsciously licked her lips.

Ashe sighed, covering her ears presciently.

The next moment, a high-decibel female voice penetrated his eardrums.

"You, you, you, you, surnamed Ai—she she she she she...how come here?"

The ashen-faced Laplande had hidden behind the sofa in the living room at some point, her still somewhat confused mind urged her to find a weapon, but after groping around her waist for a while, she realized that her sword was still in the bedroom, so her face turned pale. Then it turned green again.

Seeing Laplande's reaction, Hong lowered her head slightly, her eyes darkened for a moment, the bone in her hand seemed to be no longer fragrant, and she almost fell - but she picked it up and ate it in two bites.

Ashe watched this scene, touched her nose, and sighed helplessly.

He didn't know much about Hong's past, but after establishing friendship with Hong, Kelsey took the initiative to come to him and told him some stories about "Little Red Riding Hood" and "Grandma Wolf". , did not understand much.

But he still knows about Hong now. For some unknown reason, Hong who left "Grandma Wolf" not only has the signs of the Lupus, but is also regarded as his natural enemy by all other Lupus. As long as the clan operators sensed her approach, they would feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy, their heads would be covered in cold sweat, their hairs stood on end, and what's more, they might even faint on the spot.

Among these Lupus, Laplande's "adverse reaction" to red is particularly serious, and he almost regards the other party as an executioner who is about to decapitate his own head, full of symptoms of persecution delusions.

According to Laplande's own words, "As long as I smell the smell of that one, my adrenaline will soar to the point where I can't breathe. Maybe one day, I will die under the hands of that one." , when the time comes, don’t forget to avenge me.”

However, according to Ashe's own understanding of Hong, he is completely unable to overlap the image of the terrifying killer in the population of the Lupus with her. He also asked Hong, and Hong is not hostile to the Lupus, and even very I like them, especially their big fluffy tails - they look like innocent children.

Therefore, Ashe, who is the house of all things, also voluntarily tried to correct the relationship between Hong and Laplande and others, especially for Laplande, just trying to find ways to go out for dinner and shopping together more than once, but still With little success.

No, rather than saying that it has little effect, it is better to say that it has no effect at all.

Thinking of this, Ashe sighed again, walked to the door of the bedroom, and pushed Laplande in: "Change your clothes first, the meal is not ready yet, wait 5 minutes before you come back." come out."

"What the hell? Do you still have a conscience?" Laplande was taken aback, then raised his eyebrows: "I am the owner of this dormitory, and I am your best friend. How many years have we been together? Now Just because of such a pet that has been raised for less than a month, are you driving me out?"

"If your words are heard by others, then the number of scandals between the two of us in Rhodes Island will double again." Ashe raised his forehead: "Please, I still want to find a girlfriend before I am 16... Besides, this is also my dormitory. In terms of equity, I am still the big one. Don’t forget that you can do anything with your field salary. Think about it, how much do you owe? Is there always one hundred thousand Longmen coins?"

The cannibal has a soft mouth and short hands. Being pinched, Laplande softened visibly. She curled her lips, turned and entered the bedroom, and began to change clothes.
