Chapter 146 Go out for a walk
"I don't want to go out and get rid of my bad luck. How come the little bit of luck I lost hasn't been recovered yet?"
Zagros was also puzzled. It was just an origin mark that was destroyed. With his luck value, it should have been restored long ago, but there was no change and it was still in a negative state.
Ever since Alaya came and took away the platform of the Earth Front two days ago, Zagreus felt that he had been unlucky. He got stuck in his teeth when he drank water, his snacks had no seasoning, and even his bed collapsed when he slept.
Zagreus was forced to use divine power to reinforce them all. He couldn't understand why he always stepped into a pit when he went out. Obviously, this place had been repaired by the previous demolition team. Oh! No, the construction team near his home didn't seem to have repaired it. He was puzzled. He had stepped on it for more than ten years without any problem, but now he saw all kinds of strange things.
After a rough study, he found that the problem was with himself. Even though his luck value was only slightly less than usual, the key point was that his luck value had now become negative!
This is because Zagros himself is powerful, but if this negative luck value is given to someone else, it would be like the real version of "Final Destination".
People have different levels of luck, but once it drops to a negative number, all misfortunes will turn into fatal crises, because you are no longer lucky. At that time, not to mention getting water stuck in your teeth, even choking to death by accident would be normal.
If anyone had been reminded, during this period of time, the star of death above Zagreus's head was constantly shining.
However, luck can be changed. Normal actions can cause fluctuations in luck. If you do more good deeds, you will be thanked by others. These thanks are a little bit of wish power. Although this wish power is small, it can slowly increase luck.
However, doing things that are harmful to the world will slowly weaken your luck. For example, if you pick a flower just to look good, the world will not mind. But if you pick a large field of flowers just to look good, then your luck will be reduced a little.
Therefore, the luck of an average person may increase or decrease, depending on his or her daily behavior, but it is basically within a balanced range.
However, Zagros' own luck is constant. The world will not actively increase it for him anyway. Now, because of destroying the world's mark, some of his luck has been forcibly deducted. Zagros is also in the wrong, so he did not trouble Gaia. However, his luck will always be negative. If he wants to recover, he has to find something beneficial to the world.
In fact, it is very simple to complete his luck. Zagros can directly use his divine power to purify a piece of space, which is naturally a contribution to the world. At that time, his luck may increase. However, Zagros feels that it is unnecessary. Even if the luck of this world is the best, it can't give him any help. If he has the time, he might as well go out and kill a hundred or so infected bodies, which will naturally complete his own luck.
Moreover, Alaya is also going to start connecting to human consciousness, and the human front is already preparing for public beta testing. It just so happens that he also went out to see how the platform is running. After all, he is also one of the developers and he also has to pay attention to customer experience.
In case he encounters other worlds that need similar things in the future, he can just make slight modifications to the ready-made templates.
The next day, after Zagreus had processed all the picked fruits, he finally decided to go out for a walk. Before leaving, he explained the strangeness in the manor.
"You guys keep an eye on the house. If anything else breaks in, just bury it in the soil and use it as fertilizer for the flowers. I'm going to go out for a walk and you don't have to follow me!"
Zagreus rejected the idea of the other monsters following him, and walked out of the manor with Dahei under the respectful gazes of the other monsters.
When Zagros came to the edge of the wall, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. He had not been out for only a month or two, but he did not expect that the plants outside were growing more vigorously than he had imagined.
The former border has now been submerged by dense bushes. The survival ability of plants is always much stronger than that of animals. However, the bushes in front of us are lush but appear messy. It has only been more than a month, but it looks like a wilderness that no one has set foot on for decades.
In his manor, his divine power radiated, and all the plants grew in an orderly manner. Every flower, grass and tree was carefully trimmed by him.
But now when approaching the outer perimeter, which is the location of the original wall, the plants on both sides appear to be clearly distinguished, and there seems to be a dividing line between the inside of the manor and the outside world.
However, the so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, even those plants in the marginal areas that were not particularly concerned by him, were also affected by his divine power. Although their growth forms were not as neat as those in the manor, they were obviously different from other plants in their natural state.
At least all the plants in this area have become activated. These plants form a whole and they have a common consciousness network.
The plants knew that Zagros did not like to be disturbed by outsiders, so they grew thorn-like spikes. The thorns were shiny but extremely sharp. Zagros even saw a mouse in the distance fall to the ground as soon as it touched the spikes, obviously poisoned. Then there was a surge in the ground, and several tree roots dragged the mouse directly into the ground.
Then the vines began to wriggle, restoring the ground to normal. The road was covered with bright flowers and abundant fruits, no matter what kind of plants they were. But the direction in which these fruits were hanging was all facing the position where Zagros was, as if they were a concubine waiting for the king's visit at any time, showing their best side to Zagros.
Zagros was now standing in this "flower-filled" bush. He picked a wild fruit at random. It tasted a bit like hawthorn, but there was also a trace of spiritual energy exploding in his mouth. This special feeling made Zagros' eyes light up, and he picked another handful and put them on Dahei.
Afterwards, countless vines that were attached to the ground slowly crawled like snakes, trying to make way. However, perhaps because of Zagros's negative luck value, these vines pulled on the branches of the bushes as they moved. Due to their large size and the involvement of other bushes, they were unable to make way for the actual path, and the scene became a mess.
Zagreus looked at the "bush" in front of him with a faint consciousness. It was obvious that they wanted to do something to please him, but they seemed so powerless. The harder they tried, the sadder they felt. He found it a little funny and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. He would not be stingy with anything that pleased him.
