Chapter 11: Four Hundred That Year, Standing Like a Hero

This time it is a classic story of a corrupt official being brought down.

"Isn't the protagonist a reborn one? How can he be corrupted so easily..."

As a player, Zhao Si felt very uncomfortable watching the protagonist "Jin Bing", who finally had a name, killing himself step by step:
According to the normal routine, the protagonist of the rebirth novel should have a strong character. After reading so many rebirth novels online, he has never seen a protagonist who is so weak. Where is the character? Where is the experience? !
Before becoming an official, he worked hard to make up for the regrets of his previous life. However, as soon as he climbed up to the high position of power and influence, he fell into depravity at the speed of light. He fawned and bowed before the treacherous ministers and his adoptive father, but was arrogant and domineering in front of the witch clan's soldiers.

First he asked for bribes, then he bullied his subordinates, and he relied on the fact that Sun Star Lord was his adoptive father, and he did all kinds of things without doing anything. In the end, at such a young age, he even planned to learn how to be supported by others...

"I can't carry it! I can't carry it!"

Zhao Si just felt that it was an eyesore and thought that this guy was really forcing himself to make things difficult, but then he changed his mind:
"That's not right. Although the protagonist is a reborn being, his actual age is less than a thousand years old. Even if his two lives are added together, he still doesn't reach the standard of an adult dragon. So it's normal for him to have a bad character..."

Zhao Si suddenly understood something:
Why does this character always give himself such extreme options?
Or maybe this wasn't intentional on the part of the game itself, but rather the underage protagonist's brain was really a diode, and childishness and impulsiveness were his true thoughts...

What should we do when facing such a young man? Of course, we can only beat him up and make him reopen!
【Do you want to go back in time and return to the previous option? 】

"Yes!"

【Time has gone back...】

[… Seeing that you have excellent talent, understanding and character, your teacher is delighted and expresses his willingness to be your master. He asks you if you agree. What do you choose (?)]

This time, the two familiar failure options did not appear on the reversed apprenticeship information. Instead, the power to make suggestions was given to Zhao Si, allowing him to fill it out freely.

Zhao Si couldn't help but frown and think:

This question is actually not very practical, because when the Sun Star God asks you whether you are willing to be his disciple, you only have two options: "yes" or "no". Apart from the two overly extreme actions of the protagonist, he can't do anything.

"No?"

The first thing Zhao Si thought of was to refuse. After all, the protagonist was still young and there was no need to rush into building relationships with the powerful. What's more, even the highlight of the conflict between the monster and the human, "Nuwa creating human beings", had not even begun, so it was still a long way to go.

Furthermore, the protagonist has only reached the level of a Xuanxian at present. In a war, he is just a passerby and cannon fodder. He is not even a super soldier and is useless in anything.

It is said in the prehistoric world that "Golden Immortals are as numerous as dogs, and Taiyi are everywhere". If you want to play a role in the future conflicts between monsters and humans in the prehistoric world, you must become a Golden Immortal again, right? The protagonist is still a whole realm away.

Anyway, no matter what, the protagonist should stay and develop.

"but……"

Recalling his cheap father's description of the Sun Star Lord in the previous branch, Zhao Si felt a headache:

This Sun Star Lord is a typical treacherous and treacherous minister. Naturally, he treats the Emperor of Heaven better than a loyal dog. On the surface, he is an upright and positive character, but secretly he is a petty and dark guy!
In the first branch story, the protagonist was expelled with a reason within a few days after he arrogantly refused to become a disciple. Then he was "coincidentally" arranged to suppress the ancient poisonous volcano at the bottom of the East China Sea, and was killed without mercy... If Zhao Si said that this was not the secret help of the Sun Star Lord, he really didn't believe it.

Even though the protagonist had offended him first by making outrageous remarks, Zhao Si didn't dare to bet whether he would be targeted after he politely rejected this guy. After all, he was the loyal and trusted confidant of the Emperor of Heaven, and if he could mess with the protagonist, the protagonist would suffer a great loss.

"Then worship!"

Gritting his teeth, Zhao Si input his own strategy: […When asked about becoming a disciple, you choose (become a disciple, but don’t be a bootlicker, don’t cling too much to the rich and powerful, and don’t indulge yourself at will.)]

[You respectfully worshipped the Sun Star Lord as your master. The Sun Star Lord was very satisfied with having such a good disciple like you, so he wanted to promote you to be the supervisor of the wizard army. To this end, he could manipulate the situation behind the scenes...]

[But you rejected the Master's kindness, saying that you were determined to make steady progress and only wanted to contribute to the Heavenly Court step by step with your own strength, and had no intention of engaging in petty gains and losses.]

[The Sun Star Lord was surprised by your answer, but still admired your righteous speech, so he gave up the secret operation and supported your legitimate progress. ]

[With the resources allocated by the Sun Star Lord, your cultivation and studies progressed in tandem. Your already well-known reputation became even greater, and you were known as the "future pillar of the demon race."]

[One day during class, the sky suddenly fell and golden lotuses emerged from the ground. All the students were shocked and confused. Only you, who was in the second round, understood that this was Nuwa creating humans and becoming a saint! ]

[Not long after that, five large-scale phenomena of astonishing magnitude were reported in succession throughout the prehistoric world. Since then, all six saints have attained enlightenment.]

[At this moment, the Sun Star Lord suddenly found you in private, saying that Nuwa is the senior sister of the Emperor of Heaven. To show his gratitude to the master, he intends to go to the Nuwa Emperor Dojo to congratulate the senior sister on her becoming a saint, and has decided to bring a group of newcomers from the Heavenly Court as a guard of honor... The Sun Star Lord intends to arrange for you to be gilded.]

[After all, this is a great opportunity to be personally received by the Emperor of Heaven, and to show your face in front of various innate gods. With this level of experience, there will be great benefits in the future! Moreover, if you catch the eye of the Emperor of Heaven, won’t you have plenty of opportunities for promotion? ]

[Faced with this scene, what do you choose (?)]

[A: Disdainful, do I need to be promoted? B: I agree decisively, I want to improve myself so much! ]

Is this actually an option that has real value?

Zhao Si smiled slightly and decisively chose B.

[You choose option B, agree decisively, I want to improve so much! ]

[You were very interested, so you joined the honor guard under the arrangement of your master, the Sun Star Lord. After a few days of serious rehearsal, you followed the Emperor of Heaven to the Wahuang Dojo.]

[When the Emperor of Heaven travels, naturally the funds are fully utilized. First, the mighty and domineering elite wizard soldiers lead the way, and the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor of the East each ride in a carriage pulled by the three great ancient beasts, the dragon, the phoenix, and the unicorn, and follow behind the formation.]

【After that, there were the newly married consorts of the Emperor of Heaven, Wangshu and Changxi, who were born on the Moon Star, and Yinglong, the Eastern Emperor’s Consort, who was the legitimate granddaughter of the prehistoric overlord Zulong. After that, there were the civil and military officials of the Heavenly Court, who were dressed in gold and purple. Among them, the Demon Master Kunpeng was the leader of all the officials, followed closely by the Ten Great Demon Saints. The various Heavenly Officials walked solemnly, not daring to compete with the Emperor and Empress. 】

[Your master, the Sun Star Lord, is also among the officials, and you stand at the end as a member of the honor guard...]

[Looking at this grand procession, you are extremely envious and wish you could squeeze in and walk with the celestial officials. At the same time, you secretly glance at the emperor and empress's carriage, and your ambitions ignite in your heart: "A real man should be like this!" / "He can replace him!"]

[That year, I was four hundred, standing like a minion. At that time, I swore with tears in my eyes that you must see me...]

Good, good, I feel motivated!
Seeing the protagonist's thoughts, Zhao Si felt very relieved, as he finally made progress.

I just hope that this round of simulation can be completed perfectly, at least I can become a decent celestial official and live for 70 or 80 epochs, instead of killing myself prematurely like the previous times and never living to adulthood...
