18: Section 18

Taking a deep breath, Su Ming asked again:

"What are the conditions?"

Zhixin was as straightforward as ever:

"Cooperation is the condition! To show our sincerity, starting two days ago, a genetic engineering project called the Star God Project has been led and advanced by my teacher, Heavenly Base King Hexi!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Su Ming, with a polite smile, gently shook Zhixin's small hand, which was as warm and smooth as mutton-fat jade.

Now.

He began to feel fortunate that the first ones to approach him were the Angels and not others.

If it had been a crazy person like Morgana.

After a round of brainwashing and genetic modification, the filter that had only existed for his paper wives in his previous life would immediately shatter into pieces.

Death God Karl was even crazier.

Karl, backed by the great clock, stated—he was only interested in [Knowledge]!

Please believe that in Karl's hands.

From genes to thoughts, from cognition to soul, he would never stop until he had squeezed out every last bit of your remaining value!

The Scorching Sun represented by Pan Zhen was no good either.

The two sides of the Heavenly Dao and the Scorching Sun allowed for a seamless switch between national prosperity and divine rule, making their moral bottom line incredibly flexible and changeable.

As for Super Gene Academy.

Emmm...

Shouldn't the orthodox Shenhe be the Death Song Academy?

Recalling the setting that the main plane could be applied for replacement, Su Ming finally understood why he was sent to the Super God Universe by the Comprehensive Network.

And he was even sent directly to the Angels' territory upon landing... Su Ming couldn't help but overthink it.

There was only one reason!

The existence of the Angels could lay the best foundation for Su Ming's future growth!

As Su Ming, who held two Scarlet Professions, what was he currently most lacking?

Systematic knowledge, high-level thinking, and the assistance of infinite computing power! And the Angels, eager for further advancement, never stinted on these things!

"Hehe, happy cooperation!"

Zhixin smiled very happily; getting a ticket to a new era was naturally something to be happy about!

"Oh, right, Su Ming, since we've established a cooperative relationship, I'll be living at your house from now on."

"Ah? Why!"

"Of course, it's to tutor you. Otherwise, you won't be able to use many of the Angels' subsequent aids! Also, close proximity will be more conducive to future cooperation."

Su Ming had no objections and immediately decided:

"You can live in the living room on the first floor. The environment is simple, but as long as you don't mind."

"It's fine, I can handle the decoration myself. Oh, and the decoration of other parts of the castle can also be left to me."

"Then I'll leave it to you!"

Su Ming didn't refuse.

The Angels' aesthetics would surely be better than Su Ming's own minimalist style, right?

Why not live a little more comfortably?

Then, Su Ming led the way, arranging a guest room for Zhixin while also telling her what not to touch.

It's just that...

Along the way, Zhixin's questions never stopped!

"Su Ming, how do you adjust the brightness of the Magic Gem? What kind of energy is usually drawn for charging? What are the energy retention rate and conversion rate respectively?"

"The brightness cannot be adjusted, and as for charging... uh, sorry, I don't know either."

"That won't do, you must know the 'why' as well as the 'what'! Oh, right, Su Ming, what is the range that the Moon God Statue can interfere with?"

"Within Winterhold Castle's range, I guess."

"What an extreme! And the efficiency of converting into secondary Moon Spring water?"

"Ah, this..."

"And, and, Su Ming, how did you make Winterhold Castle a single entity?"

Su Ming: "...".

Chapter 21 Growth and Upgrade

The next day.

Waking up from luxurious silk bedding.

His whole body felt light and refreshed, that soft and wonderful feeling, which Su Ming was once addicted to.

Unfortunately, the desire for more sleep was ultimately shattered by the strictness of his biological clock.

"Ugh! What a bitter fate, I've transmigrated and still have to work like a dog."

He got up and dressed.

A Cleaning Spell took care of his hygiene issues.

Pushing open the door, he went downstairs and saw Zhixin's busy figure.

"Morning, Zhixin, want to have breakfast?"

Zhixin didn't turn her head: "Yes, prepare one for me too."

Arriving in the kitchen, the ancient stove had disappeared, replaced by a complete set of space-age rapid cooking equipment.

This was undoubtedly Zhixin's doing.

Last night, he had studied theoretical knowledge with Zhixin until late, and he didn't expect that while he was sleeping soundly, Zhixin was still working hard.

She really, I could cry!

Polished rice, Moon Spring water, beast meat, and fresh mushrooms all fell into one container.

He pressed his hands virtually, activating his Creation Skill.

In less than three minutes, two bowls of steaming hot meat porridge were freshly made.

Checking the attributes, stamina recovery speed doubled, a small amount of vitality restored, and at the same time, deliciousness +3!

On the way to the dining room, Su Ming called Zhixin, and after sitting down, one person and one angel quickly succumbed to the taste bud explosion of the delicious food, unable to extricate themselves.

A moment later.

Zhixin put down her utensils.

Her pretty little face was filled with confusion:

"Is it my imagination? I always feel like my stamina has recovered a little."

"It's not your imagination!" Su Ming replied: "This mushroom and meat porridge inherently doubles stamina recovery speed. Perhaps your life level is too high, so the feeling isn't as clear."

"Hmph! I see... No matter how many times I see it, this ability is just too incredible."

Su Ming didn't pay much attention to Zhixin's Feeling.

Others might not know, but he, the transmigrator, knew perfectly well.

The Angels' Sub-biological Engine was even more outrageous, defining reality, distorting concepts, and modifying physical constants were all within its capabilities.

Waving his hand, he collected the utensils.

Su Ming took out a teacup and asked:

"I woke up this morning and found that many things in the castle had been replaced with high-tech equipment... Zhixin, you didn't sleep all night, did you?"

Zhixin nodded:

"Don't worry about me. With my third-generation Super Gene, sleeplessness is the norm."

Su Ming instantly felt awkward.

For the first time, he felt a bit of hesitation about the so-called Star God Project that was specifically prepared for him.

Could it be that Super Soldiers also came with an innate 'Sacred Body of a Workhorse'?

Zhixin didn't notice Su Ming's unusual expression and continued speaking to herself:

"Once I successfully edit a set of smart furniture programs, you'll be able to enjoy a convenient smart life with just a thought."

"Don't worry, I won't make you wait too long; it can be done today."

After a pause, Zhixin exhorted again:

"Su Ming, I understand that your growth requires combat... But I hope you remember to always prioritize safety!"

"You really are... If you had listened to your sister, it would have been better to wait a few more days."

"Don't worry, I value risk even more than you do." Su Ming stood up, enveloped in white light, and with a ripple of spatial fluctuations, his entire person mysteriously vanished.

Zhixin sighed, feeling a bit helpless, like a naughty child at home who wouldn't listen.

But there was nothing she could do.

Currently, both sides were still in the stage of building mutual trust.

The Angels couldn't possibly dictate everything, could they?

...

Elwynn Forest, Crystal Lake.

Today's target was the Jade Mine north of Azshara's Tower, a super-mine that, at its peak, could satisfy the rare mineral consumption of the entire Kingdom of Stormwind.

Like the Fargode Mine, it was also occupied by Kobolds, and even more unfortunately, a group of Demonic Spiders had also taken a liking to it!

But Stormwind City's misfortune was Su Ming's small fortune.

He not only coveted the rare minerals of the Jade Mine but also didn't want to let go of the creatures within it!

He kept killing monsters and Gathering resources along the way.

Once the herbs in his backpack accumulated sufficiently, Su Ming would temporarily construct a shelter and use his Creation Skill to mass-produce various potions.

Basic Red and Blue Potions!

Primary Attribute Elixirs!

These were Su Ming's mainstream potions, and occasionally, he would get creative and produce some less reliable elixirs by slightly adjusting the recipe.

Finally.

By the time Su Ming passed Azshara's Tower and the Jade Mine was distantly in sight.

The accumulated professional experience successfully allowed Su Ming to raise both of his professions to L2!

The two free attribute points gained from the upgrade were decisively allocated to inspiration, boosting it to 17 points!

At that instant, his Sea of Consciousness suddenly expanded several times!

The rapid advancement of his Psychic Power further upgraded Su Ming's perception ability; vaguely, he even had a wonderful feeling that all phenomena of heaven and earth were within his grasp.

Su Ming knew.

That was not an illusion, it was a premonition!

Some more fundamental Psychic Ability was about to awaken!

Yes.

The current rapid progress in perception was merely a slight outward manifestation before the awakening of his Psychic abilities!

But even so.

The deeper mysteries of the world were, for the first time, brought into Su Ming's observation.
