BXBX NOVEL Chapter 43 - 43 Shen Yurou’s Attribute Panel
At the same time, in the same city, in an undisclosed underground chamber in a different district.
“Necromancer, suspected to have gained control of a Wild Copy, attempt contact, the allure of Yin-Yang Technique for death-related professions is quite out of the ordinary!”
Mei Chuan Ku, holding the intelligence report, smacked his lips, as if he were seeing the other party kneeling before the flag of Sakura Country, worshipping the Emperor.
“Kameda-kun, such talent must be approached and won over immediately. If he is willing to offer the Wild Copy he controls to the great Sakura Country, then we can recruit him according to the standards of the ‘A-Class Talent Retention Plan’.”
Ever since the plaits fled from the Nine Great Divine Provinces, the unions of nations have infiltrated the Great Xia Empire with countless agents.
Their tasks were simple, to kidnap or assassinate the talents of the Great Xia Empire, while also supporting some evil forces and causing trouble within the Nine Great Divine Provinces of the Great Xia Empire, to slow down its development and delay support for the Sea of Realms.
“Before the Great Xia Empire’s imperial exam, we must successfully recruit him, or else, just kill him. Otherwise, once the imperial exam is over and the Nine Great Divine States Academy gets involved, there’ll be too many variables.”
If he’s not Sakura Country’s talent, only in death could he be the best outcome for Sakura Country, and a newbie with no significant background isn’t hard to kill.
“Yes!”
Kameda Taizhu bowed a standard ninety degrees, yet his eyes emitted a dangerous gleam.
Sakura Country’s plan to kidnap the talents of the Great Xia Empire was divided into four standards, with ‘A-Class Talent Retention Plan’ being the second tier. The basic benefits included too million Dragon Coins and three blue rare-quality skill books.
As for the ‘S-Class Talents’ above A-Class, they were guaranteed at least 1 billion Dragon Coins, along with various equipment, props, and skill books for aid.
Despite being a hidden profession ninja and considered talented, Kameda Taizhu’s treatment wasn’t even half as good as the A-Class plan benefits. Moreover, this Great Xia Empire talent likely had a low-level Wild Copy in his hands, and killing him to take the copy back to his own family could reap benefits far surpassing the recruitment of an A-Class talent.
On the surface, Kameda Taizhu agreed very nicely, but inside, he plotted how to kill the man silently and take the Wild Copy for himself, to profit his own family.
Awakening Day, the fourth day.
Zi Liyuan had reached Level 30, able to run a copy four times a day, his level soared directly to 33 (93W/160).
And Shen Yurou, who he helped, had also succeeded in raising her level to 20. “Let’s go. First, we’ll deal with the loot from the copy, then purchase all sorts of materials. After that, you’ll need to research and derive new blueprint recipes to phase out outdated equipment.”
Just the [Timed High-Explosive Blossom Shell (Silver)] would help Shen Yurou complete a Heroic Tier advancement task.
But if she were to run higher-level copies later, her handgun would no longer keep up with the pace of her leveling, necessitating higher-level equipment. Thus, Shen Yurou needed to upgrade her blueprint recipes, incorporating more powerful formulas to derive the [Gunpowder Handgun – Model Two], or even a more formidable Model Three.
The fastest way to derive them was, of course, the auction house!
To purchase Level 20 mechanic products, such as the Dwarf’s specialty spiritual energy firearms series and Goblin’s specialty bomb series.
“Zi Liyuan, why are you being so nice to me?”
Following behind Zi Liyuan, Shen Yurou looked deeply at his back and asked softly.
“Investment. It’s simply an investment in talent, preparing for the future entry into the Sea of Realms.”
The chance to become immortal and ascend to the gods lay before him—how could Zi Liyuan not fight for it?
Moreover, he had two major cheats at his disposal!
“Is it just an investment? But do you really think I have the qualifications to enter the Sea of Realms?”
After changing her class to a life occupation and awakening talents unrelated to combat, Shen Yurou, despite stubbornly believing she could also become a combat class professional, sincerely doubted her qualifications to enter the Sea of Realms and become a lord.
“The equipment and items you’ve crafted can easily dominate rare Level 10 dungeons even at Level 1, and now your level has caught up with the masses of new professionals who started three days ahead of you. Why do you still think you don’t have the qualifications to enter the Sea of Realms?”
Zi Liyuan could only lament that due to the Blue Star’s misguided development of the technological tree, countless talents were buried.
But with Shen Yurou’s powerful talents and profession having crossed his path, as long as she did not betray him, why not bring her into his fold?
If he wanted to rise and develop within the Sea of Realms, relying on himself alone wouldn’t suffice; he lacked the vast resources and power.
Therefore, he needed to start cultivating his own support team immediately. “Yes, Mechanics are not useless; it’s just that they haven’t found the path to unleash their own strength.”
In her heart, Shen Yurou thanked Zi Liyuan, grateful for igniting the flame of hope for her future.
At the same time, she made up her mind and directly shared her current attribute panel with Zi Liyuan without any reservations or concealment.
[Player]: Shen Yurou
[Level): Level 20 (30000/w Locked)
[Profession]: Mechanic (Apprentice)
[Talent]: Mechanical Research (Purple)
[Attributes]: Physique 29, Spirit 29, Spiritual Power 29. (Excluding equipment bonuses)
[Overall Attributes]: Health 2900, Spiritual Energy 2900, Physical Damage +29, Magical Damage +29, Physical Resistance +29, Magical Resistance +29 [Cultivation Technique]: Huaxia Empire’s 9th Set Broadcast Exercise (White) Level 9 (MAX)
[Skill]: Mechanical Production (Level 5,0/40000)
[Spatial Backpack (111/120)]: Omitted
Looking at Shen Yurou’s attribute panel, Zi Liyuan thought to himself, “Just as
I expected!”
[Mechanical Research (Purple)]: Consuming one’s own Spiritual Energy, any mechanical item can be reverse-engineered with a high probability of deciphering the schematic recipe. The higher the level of the item, the greater the consumption and the lower the success rate. It is possible to conduct in- depth research on controlled schematic recipes, innovate, and combine them to deduce new mechanical schematic recipes.]
This talent, though unrelated to combat, was truly heaven-defying—a born mechanical scientist!
Coupled with the [Mechanical Production] skill, it meant having both theoretical knowledge and practical ability.
No wonder Shen Yurou previously managed to tinker with a flame-controlled firearm.
“With your powerful talent, Yurou, you will undoubtedly go down in history in the Blue Star Human Race’s annals!”
“However, for now, focus on researching gunpowder. You need to innovate in the shortest time possible to obtain a more potent gunpowder formula. This is crucial to successfully completing your hero-level class change quest!”
By looking at her talent alone, Zi Liyuan seemed to see the near future—sniper cannons decapitating enemies on the battlefield, missiles leveling the ground, and nuclear ambassadors annihilating alien races.
Mecha squads sweeping the planetary surface, starships blockading space, conquering one extraterrestrial planet after another.
On Blue Star Earth, the existence of dozens of large and small countries led to incessant internal strife, causing the Blue Star Humans to remain undeveloped in space travel technology.
