Chapter 940 - 940
Chapter 940: An Opportunity!
“Why do you ask this?”
I was still a bit confused about this question asked by Ming Xueming.
After all, one could understand this question with a little thought; who else could be the mastermind behind Tan Han?
So this question shouldn't have been asked by her at this moment.
“Because... the moment I saw that huge Ancient Glacial Ice, the first figure I thought of... was you. My intuition has always been accurate. If I guessed wrong, please forgive my presumption.”
I looked at her with surprise, but still responded: “Regarding this, I can only say that it is indeed closely related to me.”
“Thank you for your answer. I understand.”
“Good that you understand. After all, you seem like a smart person too. I wonder if you have any other business?”
I asked.
After all, I really didn't know what the other party came for.
If it was just to rush to take sides, there was no need to go through so much trouble.
“The next thing... naturally is to talk business. Teaching Assistant Little Han should be very interested in this, right?”
Ming Xueming said.
After all, Wan Shi Wu couldn't be unaware of what Millian had been doing during this period.
Wanting to establish the Bakery Club in the academy at this stage and stand firm was exceptionally difficult.
“Talk business? Then you should find Millian, not me. My cognition in this aspect, in your words, is... lacking sense of propriety.”
“No, I think discussing some macro-level strategic cooperation and layout with you is very meaningful. No matter what, Millian is just an extension of your will; she is ultimately serving you. We are sincerely cooperating, and for this, we can provide you with a lot of convenience.”
“Interesting... won't this damage the interests of Wan Shi Wu? You don't think we aren't competitors, do you?”
I asked with a smile.
“You're joking. I'm no longer the president of Wan Shi Wu. Now the interests we represent won't represent pure Wan Shi Wu. Although there will be a lot of pressure in this, just this extent cannot shake the intention of cooperation between us.”
At this moment, Ming Xueming once again interpreted how estranged interests and affection were.
Changing her identity, she dared to come directly in front of me to exchange the club's interests for their own side's interests.
Really... each playing their own game.
However, if one understood the composition of Wan Shi Wu, this kind of thing was actually understandable.
“Spoken very sincerely.”
I chuckled.
But her sincerity was indeed true sincerity.
Heart Sense wouldn't make mistakes, so I spoke again: “Since you also know I don't understand those twists and turns, then speak more directly. What do you want to do?”
“We will establish a cooperative relationship with the Bakery Club and help you open up the path to stand firm in the academy. Honestly, some means Millian displayed during this period are still a bit immature.”
“Then what do you want?”
I ignored the second half of Ming Xueming's sentence and asked directly.
Everyone had immature moments, and Millian was the same.
The value of her loyalty far exceeded her ability.
“Hmm... Expansion Realm.”
Ming Xueming gave three words after pondering for a while.
But just these three words also revealed Ming Xueming's foresight on subsequent matters.
“I have no doubt that you have the ability to shut out the vast majority of forces in the academy. From the relationship with that City Lord Ninglan, to those areas developed from shelters outside the Ninglan Land Boundary, whether it's Wan Shi Wu or the Witch's Secret Realm Club, wanting to enter, the resistance will definitely not be lower than the current Bakery Club.”
“And then?”
I asked.
As I said before, Ming Xueming was a smart person.
Smart people only liked to make many friends and few enemies.
I even had reason to suspect that Ming Xueming deliberately gave up the identity of the president.
After all, she was about to graduate.
She might want to do some things outside the identity of the president as a student before graduation.
“I know very well that if you want, the Bakery Club will take off immediately after the academy lifts the restrictions on the Expansion Realm, but this is definitely not now. I think... this time difference will also be my opportunity. I can guarantee that this will be a cooperation led by you and your Bakery Club. I wonder, Teaching Assistant Little Han, are you willing to give us such an opportunity?”
When Ming Xueming said this, her status and tone were very low.
Because she couldn't see through the other party anymore.
If it were before, not too long ago, like a year ago, it was simple for her to understand the other party.
But not anymore.
Even chatting about this matter with mentors she had relationships with, she might not be able to learn anything.
At this moment, this Little Witch sitting in front of her looked so ordinary and unadorned, but she had gradually left her field of vision.
Just like ordinary students couldn't glimpse what people of their level were doing.
So she was really afraid.
After all, sometimes, self-knowledge was also a very important quality.
The more the other party didn't care about you, the more it proved she herself had no value.
This Ice Throne Secret Realm taught her a lesson.
She came just seeking an answer, and she got the answer.
It was the other party manipulating this setup, and this setup was laid by the Witch Academy.
Didn't this explain the problem?
To enter the game, one must see the general trend clearly.
The basic framework of reality was that ordinary people couldn't beat the Transcendent class.
They weren't targeting this Teaching Assistant Little Witch named Yang Yuehan, but confronting the Transcendent class with the identity of ordinary people.
A losing situation and a position doomed to fail, why not change quickly?
What was the use of coveting that little bit of face and comfort in front of you?
Only those not in the academy, who hadn't witnessed the power of Transcendence, would think “I can do it too.”
Before she was completely trapped, before she valued many things too heavily, this was her only chance.
After all, every time near the final ending, did the villains really not know they were wrong, or not know they were doomed to fail?
They knew, but just couldn't turn back.
“Opportunity...”
I looked at the heavy hints in the other party's language, expression, and actions that were almost filled with sincerity.
No, this was already explicit.
But precisely because of this, I found her indeed very interesting.
Yes, there were too many opportunities around me, so many that the only people around me I could use were Millian, Tan Han, and a few others.
I could believe that Ming Xueming wasn't the only one who saw this opportunity; others did too.
But they didn't have such boldness, nor did they dare to learn from a reckless operator like Millian.
If Ming Xueming fired the first shot, everything afterward would be like a snowball... no, an avalanche!
Pouring down, it would inevitably crush a large group of those opposing minions to death.
“Of course, an opportunity can be given.”
I stopped playing with the badge in my hand and threw it to Ming Xueming with a flick.
Hearing my response, Ming Xueming immediately caught this token steadily.
Then she smiled, because what was in her hand at this moment was no longer a simple badge, but an opportunity!
And she...
Caught it!
***
At this moment, the Primal Dream State Laboratory.
Under Academy Head Mei's arrangement, they also came again today.
And the Destiny Gazing Technique instrument was almost debugged.
Now the final debugging was in progress.
If there were no problems, it could be directly disassembled and taken away.
Of course, after taking it away, it wouldn't be put back in Academy Head Mei's office-cum-laboratory.
This instrument would be placed in a more suitable place for the Witch Academy's strategic observation of the Destiny level.
Academy Head Mei also revealed that with this Destiny Gazing Technique instrument as the experimental core, they would also open several project topics themed on Destiny observation.
Used to cope with the complex and changing situation of the Main World next.
It could be said that in the Witch Academy, there were still too many idle Witches with nothing to do.
Really, a single call could rally a large group of Witches to respond.
Just like back then when I could make Witch Mentors work for me with the identity of a student, wasn't this a good example?
After simply explaining what needed to be done next to the three Body Cultivation Witches, Muli, Long, and Fannie, they also expressed agreement.
Because this matter had already been told to them in advance by Academy Head Mei before they came.
Including... taking over the Primal Dream State Laboratory.
After all, in front of Heart Sense Body Cultivators, it was really hard to lie.
It was better to get straight to the point to easily win their understanding.
And they also agreed very much.
After all, wanting to take over the Primal Dream State Laboratory wasn't something they could do now.
They had more to do, mastering the mature Dream State Domain Order, adapting to the deep-level environment.
Of course, the more important thing was actually the development of the Self-awakened Body Cultivation ability.
They just knew too little about Self-awakened Body Cultivation, so much so that when contacting the Dream State Domain, they felt very unfamiliar with it.
Normally speaking, making an analogy, comparing the dream state to reality, when a person has a clear cognition of self and proficiently masters the learning talent, then this person can quickly take care of themselves.
Learning anything only requires effort plus a little bit of talent.
But they couldn't do it.
If I compared the “Dream State Domain” to learning to ride a bicycle, then their so-called adaptation was adapting to the pain of falling.
But they didn't understand why a two-wheeled vehicle could be ridden without falling.
If making an analogy for Self-awakened Body Cultivation too, it was that they themselves had the talent for riding.
My helping them develop the talent was using effective ways to help them understand and master this talent, and carry it forward.
They could even faintly have their own understanding in the field of riding a bicycle (Dream State Domain).
As for Long who didn't have Self-awakened Body Cultivation... her positioning was actually a bit awkward, but she had already looked past this.
Just talent.
Another understanding was just a shortcut.
She believed her efforts could reach the same height as talent.
Of course, what Long valued more was actually the honing of her spirit, will, etc., by the Primal Dream State.
Back when she first saw the Primal Dream State and fell flat on her face in the laboratory, she had already been eyeing this “honing place” for a long time.
She even wanted to promote it.
So she actually wanted to use this opportunity to conduct a long-term honing on herself, learn, and master this means!
She didn't care about innovation or drawing inferences.
She just needed to learn and master this skill.
She hoped to use this means to help more Body Cultivators, even Witches who weren't Body Cultivators.
This was a means to hone Mental Power and willpower!
Seeing it and craving it, how could it compare to the peace of mind of mastering it oneself?
Actually, the other two, Muli and Fannie who had Self-awakened Body Cultivation, also had similar ideas.
But they wanted more to innovate by combining existing Body Cultivation power after learning and mastering these means.
After all, this power all originated from Self-awakened Body Cultivation.
Power of the same origin was easier to use in coordination.
Even if the span between the two was a bit far... but if really combined... wouldn't it be even more powerful?
So there was actually a faint sense of competition between Muli and Fannie.
This was a spontaneous, resonant idea, thinking alike, truly mutual appreciation between Body Cultivators.
“Little Han The final debugging is fine, hehe!”
At this time, several Witch Sisters busy with the Destiny Gazing Technique instrument announced to me very happily.
After all, as the overall framework and application design team of the Destiny Gazing Technique instrument, they would be the leading roles in subsequent related projects!
Once the project ended, they could add a heavy stroke to their life resume again!
“Then congratulations on the successful completion of your project!”
I also congratulated them.
After a burst of cheers, several Witch Sisters ran over and whispered to me.
“Little Han. After this debugging ends, we plan to hold a celebration party. Want to come?”
“Well this is a bit difficult to handle. I can't leave for the time being.”
“A clone coming is also fine! If Little Han is not present at this party, it really lacks meaning!”
“Hmm... okay. I'll mold a clone to go then. Or... you guys just grab a random clone to go? After all, I have quite a few clones in the academy.”
“How can we just grab a random one! Such a meaningful scene must be molded on the spot!”
“Alright, alright, really can't do anything about you guys. Then it's settled.”
After agreeing, they went happily to disassemble the instruments.
At this moment, these three Body Cultivation Witches also leaned over.
After all, they weren't without curiosity.
“Little Han, what are they doing? Is the project over?”
“Mhm, an experimental project with a very high confidentiality level. You don't need to help them. This is a debugged observation instrument. The core components can't even be disassembled. Transportation requires a Dungeon World with constant space for temporary loading.”
After simply explaining what could be said to them, we also quickly proceeded to our experimental steps.
However, this time it wasn't practical operation right away, but theoretical explanation first.
After all, this experimental stage was a bit rushed, but being rushed was already a common occurrence for me.
Just needed to teach them.
For efficiency, I even activated two temporary clones to instruct the three separately.
As for me personally... of course, I personally taught Long.
After all, with Witch Long's natural talent gap, she naturally needed higher-level professional guidance.
And the other two Witches could understand this.
