Chapter 44: Change
"Ask, Asker!"
"What?"
"Look at that soldier, he sneezes non-stop, how stupid!"
"What are you doing here?"
"Collect the virus." Peggy activated her ability with both hands, and sensed the distance for a long time before she said, "That soldier is suffering from an ordinary upper respiratory tract infection, and it doesn't seem to be the flu." ”
"Is there any difference between the two?" Asker asked curiously.
"The former is the common cold, and the latter is the flu." Peggy looked at him with "you're stupid" eyes.
Doesn't that mean you didn't say it? Asker secretly slandered himself.
The two sat on a stake next to the quartermaster tent. The stake was a bit high, and Asker sat on it just right, but for Peggy, her feet couldn't touch the ground, making her look a little small when she sat on it.
But Peggy didn't care, her feet dangling in the air. Asker looked at her happy face, and thought with some malice that you would never grow up.
Even if you use the ability to transform flesh and blood to "grow up", once you withdraw the ability, you will return to the appearance of this high school girl, and it will be solidified at the age of 17 from then on.
He remembered the post of a certain alchemist in the forum before, saying that he wanted to find a Lori and then pollute her with her ability, solidify her appearance, and finally wait for ten years to be legal and then be able to lift it high.
This post was rightfully ridiculed by everyone. Nowadays, the entertainment industry is so developed, and games may not last until ten years from now, let alone your Qingqi Light Source Project.
As a result, there were more and more replies to the post, and they were pushed on the forum for a long time, and finally the moderator played a big trick to suppress the popularity of this topic.
A few weeks later, the game company released a new patch that fixed the bug that "regular attacks and supernatural abilities can work on child NPCs".
Yes. Seeing the forum post, the game company was shocked into a cold sweat. If someone really does this, it will be exposed by the media at that time, and the whole company will have to go around without food.
So the stalk of "Invincible Bear Child" was born in the follow-up...... Of course, none of these restrictions exist in this world.
Asker was borely thinking about it when he saw Peggy pull out a bag, pull out a cheese cookie, break it in half, and hand him half of it.
Asker was moved, this was the first time that a girl had handed him food he hadn't eaten!
"Why are you doing that?" Peggy noticed that there was something strange on his face.
"It's okay, I just think you're sensible." Aske said with relief.
Peggy: ???
She gulped down the cookies, her eyes sneaking over to Asker. The braid hanging down from his chest trembled slightly, as if to hide the uneasiness and shyness in his heart.
In fact, it is not bad for the appearance to be fixed at about 17 years old...... Aske thought to himself, noticing that the girl next door had changed a lot from last year.
In the impression of the original owner of the body, when she was still in Constantinople, Peggy was introverted and silent. She usually wears extremely rustic braids, wears a pair of glasses with thick black rimmes, and likes to tuck her clothes into her belt.
Of course, the way an underage girl dresses often depends on her family of origin, and Peggy's parents are Armenian immigrants who believe in Solomon Orthodoxy, and they are quite strict and strict in their home education, and they don't even allow her to go out at night.
After the vampire ** killed her parents, she was like a different person. The flesh and blood ability cured her short-sightedness, but at the same time, it also filled her heart with hatred and grievances.
During the time she lived in the hotel, she just lay on the bed after training every day, staring blankly at the ceiling, without crying or speaking, as if she was stunned.
If Asker hadn't helped her get revenge in time, maybe under the torture of long-term negative emotions, this little girl would probably have become an extremely extreme character.
Even after killing the vampire, Peggy remained silent for a long time. It was a time of confusion when life suddenly lost its purpose, and the habit of obeying Asker's words was also cultivated at that time.
As for when she returned to the youthful and lively normal personality that is characteristic of today's 17-year-old girl? I vaguely remember it when I was in Olympia......
"Hey, what are you thinking! Dumbfounded. Aske was thinking about it when he saw a white palm dangling in front of his eyes.
"I'm thinking about you." Asker said.
Peggy's face warmed up, crimson spread along her fair neck to her cheeks, and a strange and joyful leap rose from her chest, as if a fawn was chirping.
"What do you want me...... she whispered, pinching the hem of her dress a little shyly.
"I've found that you've changed a lot from last year." Aske said with a smile, "Last year, you didn't usually speak, and you always maintained a cold posture of rejecting people from thousands of miles away; And now it's so much cuter. ”
"Hmm." Peggy remembered her deceased parents and gradually quieted down.
At that time, she didn't like to talk because she didn't have someone to talk to.
After all, there is nothing left.
And now......
She glanced at Asker quietly again, and suddenly asked in a low voice, "Commander." ”
"Huh?" Aske replied.
"If I can't keep up with you, will you fire me one day?" Peggy asked.
"Level doesn't determine strength." Asker replied.
"And what if I can't do it too?" Peggy asked.
"If the strength is not good, it does not mean that the potential is not good." Asker was still the perfect answer for the captain's style.
"What if the potential doesn't work either? I mean......" Peggy began racking her brains, "for example, what if I had a serious injury that would have left me disabled for life, and I would never be able to fight again?" ”
She held her breath nervously, restlessly waiting for Asker's answer. The latter was silent for a long time, and then asked her:
"May I ask you, a transcendent person of the flesh and blood sequence, where did you come from to be disabled for life?"
Oh yes. Peggy couldn't laugh or cry, forgetting about her special abilities.
If your hands and feet are broken, you can grow them back!
Then she suddenly leaned her face closer. The healthy and fair skin characteristic of the flesh sequence, the small and delicate nose, the large eyes, and the long, curved eyelashes characteristic of the Armenian girl were suddenly attached to Asker's eyes.
"What are you ......" Before Aske could say the second half of his sentence, Peggy took a "chirp" on his mouth.
"You just answered well, this is a reward for you." She jumped off the stump at a rapid pace, her back to Asker, not daring to look back at his reaction, her heart pounding as if it were about to burst out of her chest.
Then she forcibly calmed her voice, pretending to be casual, and said coquettishly: "Seeing that you are so unskilled, it must be the first kiss." Hmph, it's mine. ”
With that, Peggy hurried away.
It wasn't until she ran outside the camp that Peggy stopped her steps and reached out to touch her lips in the reflection of the pools of water on the side of the road.
Hee-hee, the first kiss. Sure enough, the opportunity belongs to a girl with courage.
Looking at her pretty face in the reflection, Peggy finally couldn't help but smile.
Asker, who she left where she was, continued to sit on the stump for a long time before she realized what had happened, and she didn't know what to show for a while.
But everyone ran away, and no one looked at any expressions.
There seemed to be a soft aftertaste on his lips, and Aske was stunned for a moment before he retracted his slightly more charming thoughts.
Convergence, convergence, don't wait to meet Medea and Nola, it's over if you are read mind-reading.
Hey, what did Peggy ask me to do with her in the first place?
Looking at the long line of soldiers in front of the quartermaster tent, Asker fell into a long state of speechlessness.
Well, did I fall for it?
