Chapter 43: 43. Elite Contract

Six days later.

On the afternoon of January 30th, Lin Qing headed straight for the secret room designated for studying Combat Skills after arriving at the branch.

Although only half of the debt for the Combat Skill “Speed” had been paid off, in fact, he could have co to confirm his identity as a “Combat Genius” at the branch’s secret room six days earlier.

But three days was just too quick, far faster than the “ten days” he had previously ntioned, and nine days seed just right.

After all, even if he was faster, the treatnt wouldn’t be better, and before understanding exactly what the Inspection Headquarters was all about, it was better to keep a low profile.

Years of survival in the end of days taught him the experience of staying low-key and concealing his trump cards as much as possible.

...

Choosing today was also perfect for securing matters before February.

“That was quick?”

Inside the dimly lit secret room, a hint of surprise laced the husky voice, which then said, “Then show us the Combat Skill ‘Speed.’ Don’t worry; there are monitoring instrunts in this room that can easily determine whether you’ve mastered it or not.”

“Okay.”

Lin Qing nodded slightly and imdiately activated the Combat Skill “Speed.” In an instant, he beca a blur, like a gust of wind, reaching from one end of the secret room to the other with graceful, elegant movents. Yet, he had to brace himself against the wall with his hands to stop his body.

There was no helping it, “Speed” was indeed too quick, casually stepping dozens of ters, making it difficult to control the distance. In such a room that was only ten ters across, the limitations were naturally substantial.

This was also the flaw of “Speed.” As a Combat Skill purely focused on velocity, it excelled only at pursuit and escape.

“You’ve really mastered ‘Speed’!”

The husky voice laughed, “It’s only been nine days, and your talent in Combat Skills and the compatibility with ‘Free Body’ is truly amazing. Just on the aspect of Combat Skills alone, you’re not far behind so of the real geniuses.”

Lin Qing couldn’t help but ask, “Real geniuses?”

“Yes.”

The husky voice replied, “For instance, the ‘outstanding’ talents identified by the Chaoyang Martial Arts Hall. With just a little effort, these geniuses can certainly master the Original Chaoyang Training thod and even break free from their genetic shackles, making Genetic Awakening not too difficult!”

“Such talents, even if they practiced Combat Skills, it would be a breeze, just like you, or even faster.”

He remarked, “However… such geniuses are unlikely to join the Patrol. They’ll either go directly to Chaoyang Martial Arts Hall or enter so major powers within the urban circle.”

Lin Qing suddenly understood.

Let alone the Patrol, no organization or system globally, not even the official ones, could retain truly elite talents.

The elite talents from all fields around the world were almost all concentrated in the urban circles.

“You don’t need to be envious, entering urban circles might offer better conditions, but it may not always be a boon.”

The sowhat raspy voice said, “I cannot go into details with you, but you can find out for yourself later. When the power isn’t sufficient, the status of many talents after entering urban circles… heh…”

Toward the end, he laughed with a bit of mockery.

Lin Qing couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Talents joining the urban circles might not necessarily be a good thing?

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. Here is the contract prepared for you by the Inspection Headquarters, you can take a look.”

The raspy voice continued, “Since it’s confird that you have a talent in Combat Skills, the Inspection Headquarters will provide you with the best treatnt and help you as much as they can to master the Original Chaoyang Training thod.”

As he spoke, the wall projection imdiately changed to reveal pages of a contract.

The title read “Preparatory Elite Patrol Training Contract.”

Lin Qing looked over it carefully and found that the obligations were just the usual requirents of the Patrol system.

The benefits and privileges were mainly the three ntioned before—

The Party B will receive ten sets of EPS series High Energy Release Liquids for free.

Upon receiving a First-class rit, Party B is entitled to enjoy so of the privileges associated with Special Grade rits in advance.

Party B will be personally trained by the city’s Patrol Chief in the Original Chaoyang Training thod, and upon successful mastery and reaching the level of Patrol Chief, they may join the Global Elite Patrol Departnt.

However, there were two additional stipulations on the last page of the contract that caught his attention.

‘1. If Party B fails to master the Original Chaoyang Training thod before January 1, 2125, they will automatically lose the qualification to join the Elite Patrol Departnt.’

‘2. If Party B masters the Original Chaoyang Training thod and the Original “Free Body” Combat Skill before January 1, 2122, they will be eligible for benefits related to Genetic Optimization.’

Lin Qing pondered these two points.

It was the end of January 2121, which ant there was less than four years until January 2125.

In other words, if he failed to master the Original Chaoyang thod within four years, his eligibility to join the Elite Patrol Departnt would be canceled.

On the contrary, if he mastered the Original Chaoyang thod within this year, and then grasped the Combat Skill of the Original “Free Body,” he would get the so-called benefits of genetic optimization?

“Genetic Optimization?”

Lin Qing asked.

“Yes, that is the biggest advantage of this contract.”

The hoarse voice lanted, “Even if one masters the Original Chaoyang thod, the probability of a Genetic Awakening is very low, unless one’s genes are naturally superior; otherwise, no matter how hard one tries, Genetic Awakening is out of reach.”

“But with the benefits of genetic optimization, it’s possible to optimize your genes and eventually break free from genetic constraints.”

The hoarse voice said, “The older you get, the more difficult genetic optimization becos. If you show enough talent, Inspection Headquarters will naturally be willing to pay a great price to provide you with genetic optimization.”

Lin Qing squinted his eyes slightly.

Unless born with superior genes, no amount of effort can lead to Genetic Awakening?

Entropy can only advance what he is capable of into the future.

If sothing can’t be achieved no matter how hard one tries or how fortunate the circumstances are, then naturally, it cannot be advanced.

For instance, the ability to parent proficiently is sothing he couldn’t manage.

“That ans I must et the requirents within eleven months of this year…”

Lin Qing had a goal set in his mind.

The Original Chaoyang thod, as well as the Combat Skill of the Original “Free Body.”

He must do his utmost to achieve both.

“If there are no issues with the contract, you can authenticate now using DNA, iris, and fingerprint identification.”

The hoarse voice said, “There’s no rush if you haven’t made up your mind yet, you can think it over and get back to within the day.”

“There’s nothing to hesitate about,” Lin Qing shook his head slightly, then added, “However, I do have one question.”

“Go ahead, although the room for negotiation in this contract is very small, it’s not impossible to make changes,” said the hoarse voice.

Lin Qing pondered for a mont, and then said, “The first benefit, the EPS series High Energy Release Liquid, you’re providing with ten sets for free, right? But if I don’t use up all ten sets, can the remaining be exchanged for cash?”

“Cash? Of course.”

The hoarse voice said, “There have been such instances before. If you are capable enough to save so of the Release Liquid, the leftover amount can be turned into cash, which is also a startup fund for you potentials.”

Lin Qing’s heart leaped with joy.

“However…”

The hoarse voice said, “After we send the ten sets of High Energy Release Liquid to you with encryption, even if there are leftovers after you use it, you cannot sell them yourself; they must be sold back to Inspection Headquarters at the highest discount rate, that is 1.2 million per set, 120,000 per vial.”

They reminded him further, “Besides, the EPS series High Energy Release Liquid has the function of increasing physical potential. You must use at least one set to restore your body to its peak state to easier master the Original Chaoyang thod in the future. Don’t squander your future for a little money.”

“I understand,”

Lin Qing nodded slightly.

He had already done the calculations.

It would take him just about one hundred and ten days to complete the Seventy-Seventh Edition Chaoyang thod, and EPS series High Energy Release Liquid trains at four tis the efficiency.

With one vial of High Energy Release Liquid a day, he would need less than thirty days to complete it.

That is, using less than thirty vials.

The remaining seventy-plus vials, he wouldn’t need, and if he sold them back to Inspection Headquarters for 120,000 each, that totaled over eight million!

With that money, he could definitely get his cousin a better pair of chanical Prosthetics!

After all, they were given to him for free; using what he didn’t need for a greater purpose was perfect, wasn’t it?

“But, why do you want the money?” asked the hoarse voice, puzzled.

“chanical Prosthetics.”

Lin Qing said, “My sister’s leg was amputated due to patrol work; I want to get her a high-class pair of chanical Prosthetics.”

“I see,” the hoarse voice acknowledged, suddenly laughing, “Wait a mont, there is room for negotiation on this matter; I can ask on your behalf.”
