Novel Bin Chapter 260 - Difference
Chapter 260: Difference
He walked to the bookshelf filled with all kinds of exercise books.
Ling Pingan recalled the appearance of the foreign student.
He was a foreign student wearing the uniform of Jiangcheng University of Technology. He was about 22 or 23 years old..
So..
Was he a foreign student preparing for the national examination?
Ling Pingan thought about it and shook his head.
It wasn’t that foreigners couldn’t take the national examination.
In fact, the Federal Empire’s college entrance examination and national examination had no restrictions.
What did it mean that there were no restrictions?
It meant that no matter who it was, no matter what nationality it was.
As long as you were willing, and you could arrive at the designated examination venue in time.
Then, you had the right to participate!
In front of the score, everyone was equal, regardless of whether they were federal citizens or foreigners.
Even the conservative Gonghe party agreed with this policy.
Because this was a tradition!
A thousand years ago, during the prosperous era of the Tang empire, there were students from Fusang, high school scholars, and then high officials of the Tang Empire. They even chatted and laughed with great poets and writers like Li Bai and Wang Wei!
In the end, these Fusang elites who had learned the advanced culture in the Tang Empire returned to their country and governed it in an orderly manner.
What was the way of the King?
This was the way of the King!
What was benevolence and righteousness?
This was benevolence and righteousness!
As for the Harmonic Party, they naturally raised all four limbs to support it.
Selecting talents and abilities, the world was a public place!
However, Ling Pingan looked back and saw the foreign student.
He was too young!
300 years ago, 200 years ago, or even 100 years ago, foreigners at this age did indeed have the opportunity and qualifications to participate in the national examination.
But now..
It was very difficult for a university diploma to be competitive.
If one wanted to carve out a bloody path in the national examination, one had to at least have a doctorate diploma!
After university graduation, one would be a bachelor, continue to further their studies, and further their studies in a specific specialty. After graduation, one would be a doctorate.
After the doctorate, one would be a professor.
Above the professor, one would be a grand bachelor!
This was a way to divide degrees according to the Federal Empire’s tradition.
Obviously, that foreign student couldn’t have obtained a phd at such a young age.
So..
Ling Pingan roughly knew.
“Maybe he wants to get into a better university…”
He wasn’t satisfied with his own university and wanted to change to a better one.
This was something that many international students often did when they were studying abroad.
In fact, this was also the usual strategy of most international students.
This was practically an open secret of the Federal Empire’s international study world!
Most of the international students who applied usually used the school they applied for the first time as a springboard.
Everything was just a curve to save the country, to get into those famous and first-class universities!
With this thought in mind, Ling Pingan reached out and picked up an exercise book.
“Preparing for the College Entrance Examination from Scratch,” published by Yaodu University last year.
In fact, this book was specially prepared for international students.
It was tailored for these foreign students who came to the federal empire to get into better schools!
Of course..
The price was also a little more expensive than other exercise books in the metropolitan territory.
For example, the one in Ling Pingan’s hand was originally priced at 98 yuan.
After the discount, it was still about 70 yuan!
Holding the problem set, Ling Pingan began to walk back.
… … ..
Alucard sat on the sofa.
He lowered his head very carefully, not even daring to move his butt.
Because..
He could feel that the terrifying existence hidden under the floor was staring at him with extreme unkindness.
There were also countless malicious voices echoing in his ears.
This made Alucard uneasy, and his vigor was high.
The Blood River Overlord was really scared.
Because, here, he felt how small and weak he was.
He could not resist even one thought of those great wills.
Fortunately, the owner of this place seemed to be friendly.
He spoke kindly.
Although the fire in his eyes made Alucard panic.
But..
In the end, he did not show any direct hostility.
But..
On second thought, Alucard was even more afraid.
Because… he thought of a fact, which was that elephants never cared about the ants at their feet, killer whales in the ocean, and never looked at the fish and prawns hidden in the sand.
So..
Was the owner of the bookstore amiable because he was friendly? Or was it because in his eyes, he was just an ant on the windowsill, a cicada on the tree?
No one would care about the ants on the windowsill, and no one would care about the cicadas on the tree.
Unless they annoyed him.
So how did humans deal with the ants and cicadas that annoyed him?
The naughty children would burn them and climb up the trees to catch them.
The adults, on the other hand, were too lazy to do it themselves.
They would only pick up a bottle of pesticide and spray it casually, and the world would be quiet.
Thinking of this, Alucard became more and more terrified.
But he did not dare not stay here.
At this time, he heard footsteps, as if they came from the sky.
Tap Tap Tap..
Every hit was very gentle.
But he heard the sound of space tearing.
Turning his head, Alucard saw the mysterious owner of the bookstore, holding a card that was surrounded by endless blood light, walking towards him.
“Customer…”
“Take a look, is this exercise book what you want?”
He handed the card over.
Alucard’s pupils began to contract.
He took the card with trembling hands.
The Blood River instantly rolled when the card was in his hand.
His soul felt endless fear while trembling!
It was the instinctive reaction of a life when facing a terrible crisis that was far beyond his ability!
Just like an antelope being pounced on by a fierce tiger, it was also like a swimming fish being bitten by a shark.
In fear, all his strength was taken away.
Alucard took a deep breath. “This is the so-called exercise book?”
He could feel that this card was an invitation to a terrifying world of terror.
As long as he opened it, he would enter that world.
He would accept the test of that world!
He would only return alive if he succeeded, and he would stay there forever if he failed!
And that world was a terrifying world that he could not face.
There, he was like cannon fodder.
Every day, thousands of cannon fodder like him died quietly on various battlefields of the world!
There, a peaceful death was a kind of happiness.
Because, the slightest carelessness would be infected, parasitized, and distorted.
He would become a monster whose will and thoughts would be tampered with and distorted by others.
He would become a puppet of those unimaginably powerful monsters.
“Isn’t this a little too difficult?” Alucard took a deep breath and said.
… ..
Ling Pingan looked at the foreign student who took the exercise book with a sad and dejected face.
“Difficult?” He thought about it and felt that it was a little difficult!
However..
“Nothing is difficult in this world. I’m afraid that anyone with a strong will can do it!” As a former underachiever, Ling Pingan always liked to push people into the fire pit of learning. Therefore, he patted the customer’s shoulder. “If you don’t force yourself to work harder, how will you know your potential?”
“Think about your family…”
“Think about your hometown…” He said seriously, “They are all waiting for you to go back!”
Alucard listened, raised his head, and looked at the flowing fire in the head that was covered in fog.
The flowing fire swayed gently.
The great will bloomed silently.
He swallowed his saliva and understood the other’s meaning.
There is nothing difficult in this world for those with a strong will?
It sounds like encouragement?
But combined with his tone and the suddenly tense and heavy atmosphere in the bookstore.
And the actions of those horrible monsters under the floor, in the wallpaper, in the ceiling.
Alucard knew that this was a threat, a naked threat!
Lowly ant, you dare to refuse?
Blasphemy!
How blasphemous is this?
Think about your family, think about your hometown..
This is even more threatening.
Alucard knew that if he dared to refuse, not only would he be immediately dismembered.
Perhaps even Butania would be completely destroyed!
Just like what humans often did.
Pour a pot of boiling water into an ant nest.
This was not a difficult thing!
He had no choice but to grit his teeth and say, “Then I’ll try…”
… … ..
Ling Pingan looked at this foreign student who had finally made up his mind and felt gratified.
Studying well!
If it weren’t for his natural idiocy in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, he would probably still be in school right now.
But it was precisely because of this that Ling Pingan would strongly recommend and encourage others to study hard.
This was called compensatory psychology.
Because his results were too bad, he hoped that others’results would be good.
It was a simple wish.
Knock, Knock, knock..
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Ling Pingan turned his head and saw a guest with a flashlight appear at the door.
He immediately walked over and opened the door, only to find that it was the old Republican.
Moreover, there was a person following behind this old Republican.
It was a young lady who looked to be in her twenties.
However, this young lady was really tall.
She was at least 1.75 meters tall. If she wore high heels, she would be a head taller than Ling Pingan.
Ling Pingan looked at her and immediately smiled. “Welcome!”
“Guest, you’re here…”
“Please come in quickly…”
..
Situ He turned off the flashlight and looked into the room.
It was exactly as he had expected.
The Blood River Overlord of Butania was sitting on the sofa of this horrible bookstore.
He was holding a card full of endless killing intent.
Situ He smiled.
He knew that the Blood River Overlord of Butania was in big trouble!
Then he heard the voice of the owner of the bookstore.
Situ He knew that he had long understood everything.
So..
In other words, the present and existence of Alucard was specially prepared by him for him to see?
It was like killing a chicken to scare a monkey.
An obscure warning: Disobedient, Just like him?
Situ He did not know, but he understood that everything was arranged.
Perhaps at the moment he posted the notice.
The terrible owner of the bookstore had already seen everything from the other side of the river of time.
Then, he kept the present and eliminated other possibilities?
Thinking of this, Situ He smiled and said, “Sir, I heard that you have some exercise books for sale here?”
“Coincidentally, my niece plans to apply for the Department of ancient culture of Yaodu University next year…”
“So, I came here to ask you to recommend a suitable exercise book to her…”
Situ He knew that the so-called exercise book should be some kind of training method or assessment method.
The proud owner of the bookstore was using this obscure method to tell him and the blackguard, “I have something good here. Do you want it?” If you want it, then beg me!
Thus, Situ He came to visit.
Not only did he come to visit, he even brought his niece along.
This was a pledge of allegiance!
It was also a form of payment in a sense.
It was probably the same as how tigers and leopards in the natural world would expose their bellies when facing a strong opponent.
The young girl behind Situ He had obviously heard her uncle instruct her to pay attention to some things.
Although, when she first heard it, she was a little confused.
However, when she walked into the fog, she understood everything.
When she saw this, she almost understood everything.
Therefore, the young girl immediately bowed. “This junior Tian Ling ‘er greets you…”
When Ling Pingan heard it, he laughed.
“Yaodu University’s ancient culture major…” He recalled that his aunt had also entered this department back then.
It was a very unpopular subject, but the requirements were extremely high!
Not only did it require grades, but it also required interviews and tests..
It took them more than half a year to get in!
In short, it was very troublesome!
However, Ling Pingan remembered that his aunt had said that her senior brothers and sisters were all very loving.
The teachers were even more amiable, and everything in school was very good!
“Come in and talk…” He smiled and opened the door.
Thus, Situ He walked in with his niece, Tian Ling ‘er.
“Please take a seat…” Ling Pingan greeted warmly. After the two of them sat down, he continued, “Customer, to be honest with you, my aunt also graduated from Yaodu University with a major in ancient culture…”
“So, I should be able to recommend some useful exercise books to your nephew…”
“Thank you so much!” Situ He immediately cupped his hands to express his gratitude.
Behind him, Tian Ling ‘er immediately bowed again. “Thank you, sir!”
Alucard, who was sitting on the sofa, watched all of this.
He swallowed his saliva. He could clearly feel a serious difference between the mysterious bookstore owner’s attitude towards him and towards the general of the Blackguard.
Although the owner of the bookstore seemed warm to him.
In fact, all his actions and words had a faint feeling of being a thousand miles away from others.
Moreover..
The terrifying monsters in the bookstore were also treating the general of the Blackguard with a completely different attitude.
The monsters were full of contempt and disdain when they treated him.
However, they were obviously tolerant towards Situ He.
At least, it was a feeling of acceptance.
Why was all this?
Alucard did not understand.
Was it because of the race?
He shook his head. That was impossible.
Because here, in this terrifying bookstore, in the eyes of the mysterious owner of the bookstore, everything in the world was probably just bugs.
Who would care about the difference between insects?
So, Alucard sat up straight.
He decided to observe and learn seriously.
Because the fact had irrefutably proved a truth — the owner of the bookstore had the strength to change the world easily.
In a sense, the moment he appeared in the world.
The entire world was destined to have to look up to him and follow his will and thoughts.
How to get along with him and how to make contact with him would become the main research direction of all countries in the future!
It was very likely that the future international relations and games would revolve around him.
