Chapter 221: A Hero Beyond the Law (Part )
"I didn't expect you to notice these things."

Zhuge Liang stared at Wang Yao, who looked serious, with his eyes flickering. After thinking for a long time, he slowly said, "But unfortunately, I can't tell you all the relevant information for the time being. Believe me, it's too early for you to get in touch with these secrets. Many times, when your strength does not allow you to know more, the more you know, the more pressure and pain you will suffer."

Zhuge Liang finished speaking and changed the subject without waiting for Wang Yao to ask again. "But now that we have come to this, little soldier, I think it is better to make some things clear to you in advance. Please keep them in mind. First, before the time is ripe, you should try to keep a low profile and not have any contact with Jixia Academy, let alone investigate it casually to avoid being detected. Second, do you know why I would rather help you get promoted secretly than let you go to Jixia Academy at such a huge risk?"

Wang Yao pondered for a moment, "Because invisible pretense is the most deadly?"

Zhuge Liang: "."

"Can you please talk properly?" Zhuge Liang subconsciously wiped the sweat from his forehead. He suddenly realized that his image in Wang Yao's mind was so vain and unbearable. "Then let me put it another way. Su An was once the overlord of the old times. At his peak, he could even fight against three heroes at the same time without losing. But do you know why someone as powerful as Su An was eventually trampled under the feet of Jixia Academy?"

This time Wang Yao stopped arguing and shook his head honestly, because he had a vague feeling that Zhuge Liang's words seemed to involve some incredible secrets of the heroes.

"It's very simple, because all of us heroes from Jixia Academy were born through the hands of the Three Sages of Jixia. Do you know what this means?"

After asking, Zhuge Liang suddenly sneered without warning. In his smile, there was a hint of self-mockery, a hint of gloom, and a hint of sarcasm directed at someone unknown.

"It means that the Three Sages of Jixia know all your comprehensive performance, including basic attributes, module attributes, functional defects, and even restraint relationships! Having said that, you may not understand the interests involved. Let me give you a simple example.

If you were one of the three sages, what would you do when you knew that the heroes you created based on ancient knowledge all had mysterious powers, and some of them could even suppress you? Haha, that's right, in order to consolidate your supreme position, you would create a law to constrain it!
Therefore, the three sages of Jixia who have mastered all your data can secretly leave a fatal loophole in each hero's body according to the evolution of the data during the promotion process. These loopholes can be set in a key module or even in a pore on your body! Usually, it will not have any effect on you, and you can't detect it at all, but once you betray them, they can use this loophole to launch a devastating attack on you!

Now you should understand, right? Although our heroes are said to be invulnerable to weapons, fire and water, they are actually just a powerful but fragile war machine. Once they are hit by a [specific attack] targeting their own vulnerabilities at a [specific location], they are even worse than soldiers. You know, even if ordinary soldiers are fatally wounded, they will not die immediately, and they can even survive if they are rescued in time. But our heroes are different. Once they are hit by a targeted attack, they will be instantly reduced to ashes and their souls will be scattered!

Whether it was the powerful Su An, the demon god Sun Wukong, or the more ancient demon king, they were all nearly immortal, but in the end they all died at the hands of Jixia Academy, just because Jixia Academy had all the data on their functions! Moreover, only a few heroes knew these things. "

Wang Yao was stunned and looked at Zhuge Liang in disbelief: "Wait, what Jixia Academy did is equivalent to installing a time bomb in your body! You are so shameless as to kneel down and lick their ass?!"

Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows, seemingly not agreeing with Wang Yao's vulgar words: "Then I want to ask you, someone like you who hates our heroes so much, why do you want to live with the Moonlight Girl? And why do you want to be a hero?"

Wang Yao was immediately speechless after hearing this.

Zhuge Liang said: "Everything in this world is not just black and white, but more often it is gray. Remember, little soldier, don't be too biased towards either right or wrong in everything. That will only affect your judgment and influence your thinking."

"Okay." Wang Yao stopped talking. He didn't want to compete with Zhuge Liang in verbal attacks. After all, the gap in their ideological awareness was too great.

However, Zhuge Liang's words "heroes are powerful but fragile war machines" suddenly reminded Wang Yao of someone.

The most powerful man in the continent, the Green Lotus Sword Master - Li Bai.

When Li Bai passed by Jingzhou by chance, he once said to him, "Heroes seem to be extremely powerful, invulnerable to swords and spears, and immune to water and fire, but in fact, in a sense, there is not much difference between them and us in essence. As long as they suffer a certain degree of specific attack, they are even weaker than us!"

The above remarks are exactly the same as what Zhuge Liang said!
At this moment, Wang Yao suddenly realized something. It was not until today that he finally understood that what Li Bai said was not nonsense. Perhaps Li Bai already knew the secrets of these heroes!

Therefore, Li Bai is not a hero, but just as described in his background, "Without a master of magic, without the secrets of magic, without the blood of the devil, with his flesh and blood, relying only on the sword in his hand, he has become the number one among the strong men of the Tang Dynasty. He is a true genius!"

Li Bai, this monster, didn't want to be a hero, but he knew the truth a long time ago! How could he, who was lazy and unrestrained by nature, allow Jixia Academy to leave a mark of vulnerability in his body?
Thinking of this, Wang Yao asked, "So, you didn't let me go to Jixia Academy so that I could circumvent the loopholes in the rules that are used to restrict heroes?"

"Yes, through my hands, you will be the only hero on the continent who stands outside the 'clampdown' rule!" Zhuge Liang said seriously, "So you must always remember that your existence is very special. Su An's fire has been lost, and Jixia Academy will definitely not let it go. They will definitely track it down to the end, so you should keep a low profile and act low-key."

"When will this end?" Wang Yao said depressedly.

"I just said it, wait until the time is right."

"Can you be more specific? When is the time ripe? In what aspect do you mean?"

Zhuge Liang paused, then smiled meaningfully: "You will know later." Wang Yao frowned and stopped talking. He just didn't like Zhuge Liang's pretentious way of speaking. But, forget it.
Perhaps he had gotten used to it, Wang Yao firmly believed that Zhuge Liang had his reasons for not saying anything.

"So, one last question."

After a while, as if to conclude the matter, Wang Yao stared into Zhuge Liang's eyes and asked slowly, "You kept saying before that you would not be an enemy of Jixia and would not betray the academy, but what is the difference between your behavior today and betrayal?"

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment.

It was like being hit on the head with a hammer from behind.
"Yes, you are right." After a long silence, Zhuge Liang suddenly sighed deeply and looked at the darkness on the top of the tent with a dejected look on his face.

"Maybe, I am just like Su An, holding a faint illusion about the current situation. Or maybe, I also hope that someone can stand up and guide the world in a new direction in this world that has been repeating the same mistakes for thousands of years and is still following the old path."

Looking at Zhuge Liang silently, at this moment, Wang Yao smiled gently.

Because he suddenly realized that he didn't hate Zhuge Liang that much. He just didn't understand this man who kept people at a distance.

"So when can I be promoted to a hero?"

"Two days later."

"We have to wait two days? So you've been lying to me about the word count after telling me so much?!"

".Soldier, don't be so blunt. Do you think it's that easy to become a hero? Just throw you into a big vat and add some flowers and plants whose names I don't even know? At least give me some time to prepare some culture fluid and other necessary materials, right?"

".You are the expert, you have the final say."

Wang Yao stretched himself and turned to look at the sunlight leaking in through the gap in the curtains. He said, "Then I'll come back to see you in two days. It's getting late. I should go home and cook."

Having said that, without any intention of entertaining Zhuge Liang, Wang Yao turned around and was about to leave. However, after taking a few steps, Wang Yao suddenly stopped and said, "By the way, do you have money? Lend me 10,000 gold coins."

Zhuge Liang looked at Wang Yao with an almost unbelievable look: "You, a small soldier, want to borrow gold coins from me, the commander-in-chief of the three armies?"

"Does the Corps have a rule that prohibits borrowing money from the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces?"

".That's not the case."

"That's all! Stop talking nonsense and lend it to me or not?" Wang Yao said calmly.

Zhuge Liang's face was covered with cold sweat: "Is this how you ask someone to lend you money?"

"Do you want me to call you uncle before you lend it to me?"

".You can come and get it tomorrow. I have to go back and see if my savings are sufficient."

After Wang Yao left, the big tent quickly returned to its former desolate state.

"I didn't expect that I would lose my composure like this in front of a soldier, haha."

Zhuge Liang laughed at himself, perhaps because he was too excited about a certain expectation that was about to come true, he suddenly covered his mouth and coughed a few times. When he opened his palms again, the bright red blood foam on his palms was suddenly visible.

Slowly clenching his fists to cover the blood on his hands, Zhuge Liang fell into a kind of silence, but his eyes were still as bright as a torch!
