How Am I Still Alive?

His tired body was already covered in sweat, and with every step, Lu Pingan felt that his feet were filled with lead.

"Ha, ha, is this the otaku-level stamina who stayed in the ward for half a year? It's really funny."

Still have the strength to laugh at himself, it seems that the situation is not too bad.

[Obtain a small amount of running experience, experience value +0.1. 】

Lu Ping'an stopped. After struggling for almost an hour, people were dying, so that his "system" could gather the amount of the first broadcast, and the improvement efficiency was really low enough.

Previously, Lei Huo Ren divided himself into a "small amount" instead of a "trace amount", and the body feeling was also very different.

But the same is true when you think about it. A professional Ph.D. researcher earns after two or even three days of research, even after a discount, it is far more than a novice who works hard for one day.

That is the gap in level, the difference between professional experts and laymen.

Before an expert becomes a professional, the countless years of investment and the accumulation of talent have resulted in the same "one day" for experts and novices, but not the same grade of harvest.

In fact, this also vaguely reveals the dominance of Lu Pingan's talents and abilities. Everyone has talents and specialties, as well as the knowledge accumulated over the years.

But he can bypass these "basics" and directly obtain the share of "results", which can be called cheating-level growth, but...

"With this efficiency, even if there are two runners who give me a share, I'm afraid I still won't be able to complete two sharp changes within half a month and become a real runner, a first-order power user."

The "running skill lv1" and "breathing skill lv1" on the panel are like mockery.

And if Lu Ping'an understands correctly, LV10 in various professional skills is the threshold for finding a job.

Just like Xia Qin's information, the supernatural power of this world is a kind of "pollution" in a sense, and it will sink deeper and deeper sooner or later, degenerating into monsters or alien races.

Therefore, borrowing the growth path of a powerful existence, determining the coordinates and stages of each growth, and making the pollution slightly controllable has become the existing night watchman's regular progress system.

"Pollution is chaos. To purify it into order, it is necessary to use the power of the gods as a harmless lens (filter) and use its growth trajectory as a coordinate. Then, what else is better than the 'occupation' of human society? It can represent order, and represent an individual's position in society and history."

Ignoring too cumbersome and complicated theories, the career system based on the so-called gods is the ladder for the current night watchmen to progress.

Among the information Lu Pingan saw, there are 53 common ways.

Well, the powers of at least 53 gods are wielded by humans.

Or to put it another way, the gods have interfered with the normal life of modern society.

Glancing at the god statue in the middle of the runway, Lu Pingan became more and more delicate. The former materialists were really not used to such a world.

"The Chaser Church of the Righteous God has 16 large enterprises under it, including sports equipment, health care, transportation, sports sponsorship and other industries. What is this, capitalist theocracy?"

The statue in front of him was a running humanoid creature with his hands spread out. He couldn't see his face clearly, and there were faint lightnings around him.

The full name of this stadium is "Ancient City Chaser First Sports Stadium".

The reason why it is called "No. 1" is because there are five large gymnasiums from "No. 2" to "No. 6" in the ancient city.

It is reported that the hospital that Lu Pingan stayed in before is also the property of a certain church.

Lu Pingan has never had a good impression of gods, but now, he needs to borrow the power of these "gods".

He needs to connect with the gods, and put his pollution alienation into a controllable track, commonly known as track entry.

"Ha, it is said that the induction ceremony for runners is simple, but it is still a bit terrible for me to lie in bed like this for half a year."

This is not the first time that Lu Pingan has tried to become a level 0 runner, but the previous few times, it is only natural that he failed.

The ceremony is actually quite simple, you only need to recite the name of the "chaser", and then run the prescribed distance within the prescribed time.

"Running five kilometers in fifteen minutes is not difficult at all. What a ghost! The world record for five kilometers is twelve minutes, which is at least the standard for athletes!"

Each god seems to have its own preferences and bad tastes, and this "chaser" likes to run fast.

Lu Pingan asked Xia Qin about the significance of such a weird ceremony to the gods, but the answer he got was quite subtle.

".It has no meaning to God, but it has meaning to you. To the great existence in the clouds, any behavior of human beings is meaningless, but the behavior itself is an expression of meaning, the meaning of 'I am here to see you' Express."

"Can't understand? Uh, humans don't care what the ants are thinking. But if the ants get together, make up your name with leaves and bodies, and imitate your movements, you will also look at it curiously." .”

"And that gaze of attention creates a connection between ants and humans, humans and gods. And our inauguration requires only that little connection."

The runner's inauguration ceremony only needs to be "polluter". After chanting the name of God, it is enough to run in a circle for a certain distance. It is known as the simplest inauguration.

But Lu Ping'an has already failed twice. Even after several days of runner experience, he still has not reached the standard for taking office, and he is about to fail for the third time.

"I'm so tired, I'm almost at the limit, then, let's cheat a little... Delayed payment of life."

The silver shimmer was placed on Lu Pingan himself, and his pupils regained consciousness.

[Life Bank sub-ability 1, deferred payment of life: the price that must be paid for life is divided into installments, the current limit is six installments and six months (6/month). 】

[The price type is specified as 'physical strength', the installment unit is days, and the number of installments is 3.]

[The current time is 10:20:27 on May 19th, and the next payment time is 10:20:27 on May 20th. Please be sure to maintain your physical condition. If you are not strong enough to pay the price, you will be deducted directly Double life points. 】

In an instant, Lu Pingan felt much more comfortable.

When the fatigue was reduced to one-third of the original in an instant, he immediately relaxed.

He accelerates so hard it feels like he just ran.

In the beginning, he thought that his ability was just to stage injuries and illnesses.

That is, a knife wound is paid in three installments, and the settlement is made with life points. From the results, it looks like a healing ability that takes effect immediately. Touching the wound is only one-third or one-sixth.

The potential of being a "healing" ability seems to be quite high, as long as you don't die suddenly on the spot, you can milk it.

The only downside is that other rule systems only have a single ability in the early stage. In order to avoid too much attention, I don't dare to use it too much.

Later, he discovered that his understanding of the "price of life" was too simple.

"The ability is marked with the 'price of life' rather than injuries. Since injuries and illnesses are the price that must be paid in life, and the payment can be deferred, then, is the fatigue that consumes physical strength gone? If it is feasible, I am not equivalent to Have two tubes of stamina?!"

So he tried it.

Needless to say, when his fatigue really dropped significantly, he was very excited, and immediately tried the second runner entry.

".Damn, two tubes of stamina (actually 1.66 tubes) are not enough."

Thinking of the predicament of the past few days, Lu Pingan was also quite helpless.

But this time, the third time, which should be the last attempt before the college entrance examination, is different.

I have had five days of experience as a professional runner, and I have made great progress on this road.

Different from the first attempt, "running skills" allowed him to use the most standard and labor-saving running movements, and the rhythm and pace of each step vaguely reached a professional level.

The "breathing method" can adjust the internal circulation of the body as much as possible, save energy,

One inside and one outside, through the experience gained from "dividing" with professionals, Lu Pingan acquired the running skills that a runner needs time to hone.

With "software", the rest is naturally hardware, which is made up for by the "extra stamina bar" opened by the system.

Ordinary "polluters" often need three months to half a year of basic training to succeed in their jobs, but Lu Ping'an's last attempt was actually not far behind.

When the 5,000-meter long-distance race becomes two 2,500-meter races, the difficulty is not reduced a little.

".Hold on, hold on."

His whole body was covered in sweat, but his breathing was still warm and long and steady. His steps and arm swings always maintained a fixed rhythm. Lu Pingan imagined himself as a machine, trying to forget the physical strength that bottomed out again.

"Soon, soon"

Just when he couldn't run anymore and thought he was going to die again, the system's notification sounded like the sound of heaven.

[Di, congratulations to the host, the inauguration ceremony is completed, and the rank of 'runner' has been obtained. 】

[Runner's occupation correction: a slight increase in physical fitness, a slight increase in reflexes, and a slight decrease in spirit. 】

[The general skill 'Running Skill LV1' is transformed into the professional skill 'Following the Light LV1'. 】

[The general skill 'breathing method lv1' is transformed into the professional skill 'Flashing breathing method lv1'. 】

Lu Pingan stopped, took a big breath, and finally smiled.

"Finally succeeded!"

If it's just that, Lu Pingan wouldn't be so excited.

After his successful inauguration, his panel was also updated.

[Lu Ping'an, 16 years old, male. Life points 4960 (-5000)]

[Status: Physique (mortal), reflection (mortal), spirit (mortal)]

[Occupation: Tier 0 Runner]

[Professional ability: None. 】

[Professional Skills: Chasing Light Running Method LV1, Flash Breathing Method LV1. 】

[General skills: cooking lv2, cleaning lv1]

Successfully taking up a job, you only need to see that the improvement is minimal, and there is no obvious change on the panel, but something has been added to the originally empty occupation and occupation skills.

But the most important thing is actually professional ability, true extraordinary ability.

[The experience of the black iron level spell 'Shrinking Land', the current progress is 58/100.]

After a bunch of general-purpose skills, Lu Pingan turned to the "Miscellaneous Items Bar", among them this... But now, it has become clickable, and the information is more detailed.

Shrinking the ground is a supernatural ability that can only be possessed by first-order runners.

Mastering it at the initial stage can make an extra step in every five steps of running.

This means that "one-step teleportation" may appear during the battle, which sounds bad, but has extremely high actual combat value.

Occupational experience is summed up into occupational skills, and occupational skills are upgraded to professional-level occupational abilities through polishing.

Under normal circumstances, only by practicing "running" and "breathing" to the extreme can it be possible to awaken this supernatural professional ability "shrinking ground".

And only those who have mastered supernatural professional ability can advance to the first-level professional, and can be regarded as a real entry.

In an oriental way of saying, it is "the old master solves the problem, and enters the Tao through technology".

This often requires a flash of inspiration and the blessing of fate, and sometimes what you awaken is not what you want.

The brothers and sisters of the Lei family paid a lot of money just to get a chance to break through in a good state.

After using "Shrinking Land" for a long time, Lei Huo Ren naturally shared his experience and insights with Lu Pingan.

[Black Iron Level Spell Shrinking Land: For every five steps, an extra step will be added. 】

Lu Pingan clicked on the screen in the void, and more news came back.

[Requirements for use: chasing light running method lv4, flash breathing method lv4, space perception lv1, experience of shrinking the ground 100/100. 】

"It's not lv10?"

The requirements were much lower than expected, Lu Pingan smiled, no wonder many people said that it is not difficult for first-level runners to find a job, but it is actually a brainstorm.

The rest is just targeted to make up for the shortcomings

Creating something out of nothing and filling in the blanks is naturally not a difficulty.

Well, it is really possible to become a real professional within fifteen days.

At this moment, Lu Ping'an looked at the playground again, the two high-quality leeks. The customer never stopped after adding BUFF.

Collecting a price is not just to make up for your empty wallet. After the other party pays the price, you will naturally cherish the time and status you bought. Then, your share tomorrow will be even better.

"Work hard, struggle, for our better tomorrow!"
