Starting From The Equal Opportunity To Become A Saint

Chapter 3: Golden Lock!

Liu Zimo quickly calmed down.

The reason why superpowers are called superpowers is because they are extraordinary and can do what ordinary people cannot.

With the advent of the demonic calamity, there were also quite a few lucky individuals among the human race who awakened their superpowers, such as telepathy or mind reading, which Liu Zimo had encountered before.

However, he never expected that one day he would awaken a similar ability himself.

"What Liu Siqi is thinking about should be Jiang Tianxiong!"

"I remember thirty years ago, after I was injured by Jiang Shijie and woke up in the hospital, Jiang Tianxiong personally came to visit me and even offered one million yuan to settle privately."

Thinking of Jiang Tianxiong, Liu Zimo couldn't help but recall the situation when he first met the CEO of the Jiang Group in the hospital thirty years ago.

It must be said that although Jiang Shijie was a despicable and arrogant scoundrel, his father Jiang Tianxiong was definitely a remarkable figure.

In order to spare Jiang Shijie from imprisonment and keep his record clean, Jiang Tianxiong, the CEO of the group, not only personally apologized to Liu Zimo, but also offered a huge compensation of one million yuan to resolve Liu Zimo's grievances.

However, at that time, the young and hot-blooded Liu Zimo couldn't let go of his anger. Instead of accepting Jiang Tianxiong's compensation, he threatened to expose everything and make Jiang Shijie rot in jail, completely offending Jiang Tianxiong.

The result of this was that Jiang Shijie got away with it, while Liu Zimo was falsely accused of attempted rape and sentenced to three years in prison while still recovering from his injuries.

It was because of this that Liu Zimo was able to avoid the first wave of monster attacks during the demonic calamity, as he was imprisoned in a heavily guarded prison.

However, his father Liu Yi and his younger brother Liu Zihao were not so lucky and died on the first day of the demonic calamity.

Slap!

Liu Yi slapped his son on the shoulder, snapping Liu Zimo out of his reverie.

"What are you daydreaming about, son?"

"Dr. Liu is your lifesaver, you can't be so impolite!"

"Let's listen to Dr. Liu and get a thorough examination before leaving the hospital. That way we can be at ease, right?"

Liu Yi made the decision for his son directly. After all, they didn't have to pay for it, so why not get a thorough examination?

Liu Zimo opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything more because he saw Jiang Tianxiong's figure appearing outside the ward.

What surprised Liu Zimo was that, at the same time he saw Jiang Tianxiong, he also saw a golden lock shimmering above Jiang Tianxiong's head!

It was actually golden!

So dazzling, so tempting!

An impulse to lock this golden lock surged in Liu Zimo's heart.

And as Jiang Tianxiong approached, this impulse became even stronger.

Lock it! Lock it!

Snap!

A crisp sound.

The golden lock above Jiang Tianxiong's head instantly fell, and Liu Zimo's desire and urgency were instantly calmed.

At the same time, a pleasant voice sounded in his ears:

[Binding successful! Your good brother Jiang Tianxiong is now online. Currently available binding targets (2/3).]

It's locked!

This Jiang Tianxiong has actually become his "good brother"!

Liu Zimo's mind trembled slightly, gaining a further understanding of his superpower.

It turned out that as long as the other person approached a certain distance from him, his superpower could be directly activated according to his thoughts.

What's more important is that when the superpower is activated, it is silent and neither the other person nor the people around them can detect it.

The sound of the lock falling just now, as well as the prompt in his ear, seemed to be only audible to himself.

Very mysterious!

[Your good brother Jiang Tianxiong has encountered numerous opportunities and gained abundant wealth, triggering the 'Heaven's Thief' innate talent. The opportunities are evenly distributed, and you have received half of the wealth, RMB+10,000.]

[Your good brother Jiang Tianxiong has encountered numerous opportunities and gained abundant wealth, triggering the 'Heaven's Thief' innate talent. The opportunities are evenly distributed, and you have received half of the wealth, RMB+10,000.]

"..."

Just as he bound Jiang Tianxiong, Liu Zimo's ears were constantly filled with prompts of wealth distribution.

Approximately every three seconds, he would receive about ten thousand yuan.

Such a speed of making money, truly worthy of being the founder of the Jiang Group!

Liu Zimo sighed in his heart.

With such financial ability, it's no wonder Jiang Tianxiong was able to rise up during the subsequent disaster and become one of the three major powerhouses in San Yuan City, apart from the government.

"Mr. Jiang, how did you come in?"

Seeing Jiang Tianxiong, Liu Siqi's expression changed slightly, but he quickly walked over and was about to explain to Jiang Tianxiong when he was interrupted by a wave of Jiang Tianxiong's hand.

"Are you Liu Zimo?"

"I am Jiang Tianxiong, Jiang Shijie's father. Today, I have come to apologize to you on behalf of Shijie!"

Jiang Tianxiong walked directly in front of Liu Zimo and spoke apologetically.

"Shijie is ignorant and doesn't know how to control his strength. He has caused you suffering, Liu Zimo!"

As he spoke, Jiang Tianxiong waved his hand, and the female secretary behind him quickly took out a check from her bag and handed it over.

"Liu Zimo, this one million is the compensation I am giving you on behalf of Shijie. And all the expenses you have incurred in this hospital will be on my account!"

"I hope you can forgive Shijie this time. I can assure you that that brat will never dare to trouble you again in the future!"

Just like thirty years ago.

It was not as domineering and condescending as imagined. Jiang Tianxiong's attitude was sincere and kind.

Perhaps in his eyes, things that could be solved with money were not a big deal.

Moreover, one million was just a wealth that he could earn in a minute or two, not even worth mentioning.

If it weren't for Liu Zimo being too stubborn back then, refusing to accept mediation and insisting on sending Jiang Shijie to prison, Jiang Tianxiong might not have bothered to use any means against the Liu family.

Liu Zimo didn't reach out to accept the check handed to him by Jiang Tianxiong. Instead, he quietly observed Jiang Tianxiong.

Sure enough, he soon heard Jiang Tianxiong's thoughts.

[Why is this kid looking at me like that? Does he think it's not enough or does he simply not want to accept this check?]

[Although one million is not much, it should be a huge sum for the Liu family, who are working-class people, right?]

[Could it be another stubborn person who would rather not take the money and fight with our Jiang family?]

[Tsk, young people these days, all arrogant and proud, not having experienced the harshness of society, they don't understand the true allure of money.]

[Fortunately, I have already bribed that girl Zhao Yan and found a scapegoat for Shijie. If this Liu Zimo really doesn't know what's good for him, then don't blame me for being impolite!]

[Sigh, Shijie, that brat, has been spoiled by his mother! It was fine when he was fooling around before, but this time, he actually dared to seriously injure someone and it was even filmed and spread online. What a trouble!]

[It's only because of this kid's luck that Liu Siqi saved him in time. Otherwise, if someone really died, I wouldn't be able to cover it up no matter how hard I tried!]

[But speaking of which, this kid was clearly seriously injured before. How did he manage to get out of bed in just one night? When did Liu Siqi's medical skills become so advanced?]

[Or is it that this kid, like those employees in the company, has awakened some kind of ability?]

[If that's the case, then we have to be careful...]

Jiang Tianxiong's thoughts kept running, but he didn't realize that his thoughts had already been transmitted to Liu Zimo's ears without any concealment.

"I can feel Mr. Jiang's sincerity. I can keep this check, and the grievances between me and your son can be settled."

Liu Zimo reached out and took the check, speaking softly.

"However, the condition is that Jiang Shijie and your Jiang Group will not come to trouble me and my family in the future. Otherwise, I can't guarantee what I will do!"

For Liu Zimo, the most important thing now was to quickly improve his own strength and have enough ability to protect his family when the disaster came.

As for seeking revenge, it was not urgent at the moment.

Jiang Tianxiong's mind trembled slightly when he heard this, and he couldn't help but look at Liu Zimo.

[This kid speaks with such confidence. It seems that he has really awakened some kind of superpower!]

[However, this kid is still naive.]

[No matter how strong his superpower is, it is still limited. It is far inferior to orthodox martial arts cultivation. The security team of our Jiang Group is not to be trifled with. I'm not afraid of him causing any trouble.]

Thinking of this, Jiang Tianxiong smiled and said loudly,

"Liu Zimo, rest assured, no one will come to trouble you because of this matter in the future. I, Jiang Tianxiong, guarantee it!"

"I hope so!"

Liu Zimo responded with a smile.

He didn't expect that not only did Jiang Tianxiong know about the existence of superpowers, but there were also awakened superhumans in his company.

However, Jiang Tianxiong's knowledge was still limited. The development and utilization of superpowers had risen rapidly in the thirty years since then, not inferior to martial arts cultivation in the slightest.

Some of the awakened individuals in the battlefield thirty years later displayed a killing power that was no less than that of grandmasters or even saint-level martial artists.
