Chapter 79: 074 Confidence 6 (Thanks to the Alliance Hierarch who loves to sleep, Little Orange Cat)
“Perfect,” Xindela’s face showed a flicker of surprise. “The combat master you asked to help introduce has responded.”
“Oh? Is it that military instructor who created Dragon Whisker Strength?” Li Chengyi imdiately beca interested.
“Yes. The master’s na is a bit special, called Yu Long,” Xindela explained, “Yu as in prison, Long as in dragon.”
“Is there such a surna as Yu?” Li Chengyi was astonished.
“Of course not, he’s an orphan who changed it himself later,” Xindela replied, “I’ll give you an address later, and you can go try it out yourself. The old man used to be very picky, but now he’s not. He’s already satisfied as long as soone is willing to learn.”
He sighed.
“I thought he was just getting old, with many injuries and illnesses, lacking the energy to teach you. Now it seems he can’t let go of his obsession.”
“You didn’t finish about the Pureblood Sect, boss,” Li Chengyi swiftly brought the conversation back.
“Oh, right, the Pureblood Sect. What they call pureblood is… I can’t explain it in a short ti, I’ll send you so materials and you’ll understand,” Xindela said and started operating his AR to send a data packet to Li Chengyi.
Upon receiving, downloading, and opening it.
A brief introduction to the Pureblood Sect imdiately appeared before Li Chengyi.
‘Within the cha Engineers, a portion of insightful individuals aid to compensate for their disadvantages when facing genetically enhanced bodies, as well as to redy the cha Engineers’ significant energy drain and insufficient endurance when controlling Flying Yi.’
‘They continuously tried and experinted until they finally explored a unique path through various drugs and gene fusion to strengthen themselves.’
‘The Pureblood Sect doesn’t completely reject modifications, and so may have a few chanical parts in their bodies, but they absolutely refuse to embed artificial intelligence in themselves.’
‘So suspect that the Pureblood Sect may have absorbed so of the ideologies of the once United Front.’
“Drug genetic enhancent… isn’t that still modification?” Li Chengyi was at a loss for words.
“Yes, want to try it? The effectiveness isn’t that impressive. Pureblood Sect is just a path developed to assist cha Engineers, with a very low ceiling. But it doesn’t cost much and paired with Exoskeleton Power Armor, it can have so potential,” Xindela inquired.
“Give it a try?” Li Chengyi felt he was already in enough trouble and it was ti to rest and lay low for a while.
“Then get ready, I’ll take you to a Drug Customizer later to tailor a Pureblood path for you. Sima Gui took this sa route,” Xindela said, proving to be a resourceful boss with all sorts of connections.
“Thanks, boss!” Li Chengyi imdiately responded.
“By the way, make sure the money is ready, customization starts at a million,” Xindela ntioned.
“…..” Li Chengyi’s enthusiasm suddenly died.
“What if I don’t have the money?” he asked with a helpless look, “Can I get an interest-free loan, boss?”
“….. Do you really think I’m made of money?” Xindela’s eyes widened. “Enough, enough, get out of here! I’m weary just seeing you.”
Li Chengyi stood up with a smile.
“But I really am out of money, boss. If you won’t lend it, then I’ll have to wait. I’ll co back after I’ve earned so more from you.”
“… You… when did I not notice how cheeky you were!?” Xindela was at a loss for words.
He had always thought Li Chengyi was the most honest and upright Blind Spot Individual he had ever t.
Now it seed, the man was not honest, but rather too good at pretending.
“Forget it, I’ll cover you for now. Your ti is almost up, right? Help with a mission next ti to pay back,” Xindela said helplessly.
“Thanks, boss!” Li Chengyi imdiately bowed and quickly left the room as if afraid Xindela might change his mind.
Just as he was about to leave the office, Xindela called out from behind,
“Cheng Yi.”
“Hmm?” Li Chengyi turned back.
“Make sure to rest when you can and don’t push yourself too hard,” Xindela said earnestly, “You’ll break down.”
He had seen many Blind Spot Individuals fall apart under the relentless pressure of imminent death. At first, they could keep steady, but later on, facing the constant threat of the Blind Spot, most beca a different kind of person.
Selfish, indulgent, seeking only their own pleasures, wild, fearless of death, chasing thrills.
“I understand,” Li Chengyi said and left through the door, coming face to face with Pencil Eyebrow who was standing by the door.
He greeted her with a smile.
Pencil Eyebrow shuddered inexplicably, stepping back as if sensing so danger.
Li Chengyi’s smile faded.
“Is there sothing wrong with ?”
“No, nothing, it’s just… I don’t know why.” Pencil Eyebrow had previously warned him in secret about Sima Gui’s personality.
But now… she looked at the seemingly gentle smile on Li Chengyi’s face, yet couldn’t help but be reminded of the neurotic smile often present on Sima Gui’s face.
The two were becoming increasingly similar.
From Pencil Eyebrow’s reaction, Li Chengyi vaguely sensed sothing.
As usual, he greeted everyone in the company, then entered the elevator and put on his AR glasses.
The glasses turned a dark color, covering his eyes at that mont, which also concealed his increasingly abnormal pupils.
Leaving the company, Li Chengyi didn’t imdiately hail a cab ho. Instead, he strolled along the street, browsing through the little shops one by one.
Groups of middle school girls on weekend leave were bustling in and out of little accessory stores. Boys were occasionally spotted in competitive internet cafes and snack shops.
The innocent and pure voices of the youth constantly rang in his ears, gradually calming the weird urge building in Li Chengyi’s heart.
