Although Bier was inwardly jealous of SY, the newly rising engineering strear,
she had to admit that SY’s innovative designs, hands-on skills, and knowledge far surpassed hers.
To improve herself, Bier watched SY’s live broadcasts every day.
And she would watch the replays several tis.
It’s just that SY’s hand speed was so fast, even in slow motion, she couldn’t figure out which component SY pressed more.
But Bier rembered clearly, that new laser gun was designed just like that.
Even the button positions were identical.
After that broadcast, SY auctioned off the weapons made during the live stream on W.
Bier didn’t win any.
Ying Zijin actually dared to submit soone else’s product for an experint?
Did she really think the reviewing ntors and the dean couldn’t tell?
Bier imdiately took out her phone and started taking photos at all angles of the inspection table, specifically including Ying Zijin’s na tag.
After taking the photos, she hastily left the laboratory.

Noon.
The bar in the Central District.
Ying Zijin pushed the door open and walked in, taking off her hat, "What do you want for?"
"Of course, it’s sothing important." Xiu ca over, "I only found out this morning, so I’m notifying you right away, the Moon is back."
"Hmm." Ying Zijin was about to grab a drink but switched to a glass of juice midway, "I brought her back."
"..."
The air suddenly beca quiet.
Xiu was flabbergasted.
This is the **?
"I suspect you’re a magnet now." Xiu held his forehead, feeling like spitting blood, "A magnet with the ability to attract sages."
How many sage reincarnations are there?
At most, you can count them on two hands.
Yet around Ying Zijin, there’s always one right on the mark.
Now he had beco the weakest among them.
"I am indeed a magnet." Ying Zijin glanced at his newly dyed green hair, pausing, "A magnet that attracts ridiculous neurotics."
Xiu: "..."
He sat next to her, sighing.
Ying Zijin took a sip of her juice, glancing at him, "What’s up?"
"I lost my sister’s photo; I’ve been looking for it forever and can’t find it." Xiu’s fingers ran through his hair, "Help figure out where I lost it."
"You’re sick."
"I’m serious; even losing one makes heartbroken."
Ying Zijin pulled out her Tarot Cards, responding perfunctorily, "Alright."
Xiu looked expectantly.
A minute later, the girl opened her eyes, expressionless: "Can’t figure it out, not ssing with you."
"Not even you can figure it out?" Xiu was a bit dumbfounded, "Then where did my sister’s photo go, it’s not like it decomposed by itself, right?"
Ying Zijin put the cards away, "Tell about your sister?"
She felt quite emotional about this never-before-seen "colleague."
"We’re not biological siblings." Xiu said in a low voice, "We just beca siblings the first ti we went on a mission."
"You wouldn’t know, this girl is a ’Three-No Girl.’ It was so hard to get her to be my sister, oh, I was so happy."
Ying Zijin looked up, serious: "Could you explain, what is a ’Three-No Girl’?"
"Eh, you watch lodramas but not ani?" Xiu was puzzled, "It ans she doesn’t speak, doesn’t have a heart, and no expressions, she barely talks, has no facial expressions, you can’t tell what she’s thinking at all."
Ying Zijin rubbed her head.
Turns out, this sage who draws cards and drinks boiled water is also an otaku.
"It’s not that she’s as cold as ice, she just can’t perceive it." Xiu added, "There’s no way, her Special Ability is too overpowered, so of course her body would have other deficiencies."
Ying Zijin pondered, "No sage that has completely fallen can co back?"
"That’s right." Xiu paused for a mont, "How long have the Fool and Temperance fallen? It’s been centuries, almost right after becoming sages they were gone."
"At first, we didn’t believe it, but it was my sister who calculated it, and in the end, even she..."
So, sages can also die.
Because they are not gods.
Now he only hoped that Strength and Justice hadn’t completely fallen.
"Honestly, a bit of your personality is quite like my sister’s, but she’s even colder." Xiu suddenly felt energized, "Could you call ’brother’? I haven’t heard that in so long."
Ying Zijin looked up, scanning him for a mont: "You, call ’dad’."
Xiu: "..."
How many lodramas has she watched?
**
Sage Academy.
The Magician is in the inner chamber crafting new dicine.
In the Tarot Cards, the Magician card represents "Creation," which is also the Sage Magician’s special ability.
There’s no dicine in this world that he cannot refine.
Just as he was about to add another alchemical dicine, a sudden loud noise ca from outside the door.
Followed imdiately by a scream.
The Magician’s hand trembled, and he shouted sternly: "Who?!"
He stord outside, furious: "Don’t you know you can’t disturb at this ti?!"
"My lord!" The Dean of the Genetic Institute, who was thrown to the ground, seed to have found a savior, he rejoiced, "My lord, save , my lord!"
"You?" The Magician lowered his head, finally noticing the Dean of the Genetic Institute, "Why are you here?"
The Dean of the Genetic Institute just opened his mouth: "I—"
"Magician, the SS-ranked Gene Warrior was sent by you." Qin Lingyu walked in slowly, "You want so badly to kill ; how about doing it yourself?"
The Magician looked up, his pupils suddenly contracted, astonished: "Moon?!"
Before he could ask, the next second, Qin Lingyu grabbed his collar.
With a "bang," he was slamd against the wall.
The Magician couldn’t help but hiss, sowhat flustered: "Moon, what are you doing?!"
Due to his dicine refining and weak body, he couldn’t withstand such impacts.
Qin Lingyu didn’t speak, only raised her hand.
"Stop!"
A cold female voice rang out.
Sara walked in: "What are you doing here?"
Qin Lingyu didn’t lift her head: "What, the Magician wants to kill , and I can’t kill him too?"
"I didn’t want to kill you!" The Magician argued, "Who knew you reincarnated into an experintal subject this ti?"
"So if I hadn’t returned to the Sage Academy in ti, you would have killed ?" Qin Lingyu pressed further, pushing the Magician’s head against the wall.
If a Sage reincarnates and does not return to the Sage Academy during their lifeti, they will continue to reincarnate after their lifespan ends.
But natural death is different from being killed.
Once a Sage is killed during reincarnation, it can result in total annihilation.
The Magician scread: "Sara!"
"He didn’t expect it to be you; that’s his fault." Sara restrained herself, finally losing patience, "But aren’t you unhard? Is this the ti for internal conflict?"
Her eyes grew cold, and a sudden aura erupted: "Moon, you return and stir up trouble imdiately?"
The woman exudes supre authority, overwhelming those around her.
Sages also restrain each other.
Except for combat-type Sages, the Wheel of Destiny can completely restrain any Sage.
Because her special ability is too overpowered, just a glance can reveal the opponent’s next move.
It’s impossible to contend against.
Next in line is the Sage Empress.
"Stir up trouble?" Qin Lingyu turned her head, "Embryo genetic engineering was proposed by him and overturned by you; how many lives have you hard?"
She didn’t back down at all, sneering: "Sara, have you forgotten the Sage’s duty after presiding over the Sage Academy for so many years?"
"Otherwise, when the next disaster cos, will you handle disaster response?"
What is the duty of the Sage?
To guard this world.
"We’re not gods; we also make mistakes." Sara’s eyes grew colder, "Mistakes must be corrected; if you’re just a failure, then you must be erased."
Qin Lingyu’s expression turned icy.
"I’m warning you again, Moon." Sara stated coldly, "Before the Devil returns, I don’t allow Sages to fight internally. Try if your dream control works on or not!"
Qin Lingyu’s expression changed suddenly.
The Magician breathed a sigh of relief, his back soaked in cold sweat.
Although he wasn’t a combat-type Sage, his special ability couldn’t be used against enemies.
But he could refine any dicine in the world, and the Sage Academy couldn’t do without him.
Everyone would protect him.
Sara withdrew her aura, leaned on the throne, and said indifferently: "Since you’ve returned, do what you’re supposed to do. It’s the upcoming disaster that guided your return, right?"
"You should have a premonition; this ti, the disaster might require all of us to withstand it."
Qin Lingyu’s fingers slowly clenched.
Yes.
In the face of a great disaster, all personal grievances amount to nothing.
She is a Sage; she needs to consider the safety of the entire earth and other lives.
And just then, a voice ca from outside the hall.
"Sara." The voice chuckled softly, but carried a chilling coldness, "You are not yet qualified to look down upon us."
A slender hand rested on Qin Lingyu’s shoulder.
