"Co on, everyone, dig in!"
Delicious dishes were soon served. At Cai Kun’s urging, everyone picked up their chopsticks.
They had spent a whole day in the Crane Ridge Anomaly eating nothing but dry rations.
They hadn’t had ti to enjoy a good al.
When it’s ti to relax, you’ve got to relax!
...
After a few rounds of drinks and several courses, the al was in full swing.
Everyone was eating and drinking to their hearts’ content.
The atmosphere in the private room grew even more lively.
From Cai Kun and the others, Chen Yu learned a few things about the Superpower Academy.
Students at the Superpower Academy did more than just attend classes.
Improving their powers and learning martial arts was only one part of it.
A bigger part of their training involved completing missions.
The students worked together, more like an adventuring party.
The students of the Superpower Academy were all veterans of nurous life-or-death battles, not so pampered flowers raised in a greenhouse.
Adept with their Skills and tempered by real combat, the students they produced were all Elite Level.
For so Superpower Academy students who reached a certain level of power, their future battlefield would be the Starry Cosmos.
Humanity’s control over the Nine Realms seed glorious, their status Extraordinary.
But compared to the Stellar Alien Races, it was nothing more than a tiny ripple in a vast ocean.
Powerful Alien Races dominated tens of thousands of worlds.
Their resources and civilizations were simply beyond comparison.
Never mind the distant Starry Cosmos; even within the Celestial River Star System alone, there were many Stellar Alien Races.
The cosmos was dazzling, but beneath that splendor lay a bloody, dark forest!
Chen Yu had seen this for himself in the data footage from Sophie.
The Neil Civilization had also been a human civilization, yet in the face of that Alien Race, it was annihilated in an instant.
...
By the ti they finished their satisfying al, the sky had grown completely dark.
It was 9:30 PM by the ti the group left the Mountain and Water Manor.
Chen Yu got into a taxi and went straight ho, while ng Li and An Ran also left.
At the manor entrance, Li Tie and Cai Kun were smoking, watching the taxi Chen Yu was in drive away.
A cool breeze blew. Cai Kun took a deep drag from his cigarette and looked at Li Tie beside him.
"Brother Tie, what do you think of Chen Yu?"
"He feels dangerous," Li Tie said, blowing a smoke ring. "It looks like his other special ability must be very powerful."
Cai Kun said, "I still haven’t figured out his ability. He can fly and form a protective Force Field. That’s probably a B-rank power, maybe even A-rank."
"We’ll wait and see," Li Tie said calmly. "We’ll know for sure after the academy’s evaluation."
Cai Kun nodded.
...
「Tianshui District.」
Back ho, Chen Yu flopped onto the sofa, drunk.
This was the first ti he’d gotten drunk since he’d transmigrated.
"Sophie, transform."
Chen Yu mumbled.
VMMM—!
The words had barely left his lips when the dark gold bracelet on his wrist flashed. Sophie appeared before Chen Yu, clad in a bikini.
"Master, you are drunk."
Sophie looked at Chen Yu and spoke.
"Drunk is good. It feels great~" Chen Yu slurred.
Sophie: "Master, Sophie knows how to perform a massage. Would you like one?"
"You know how to massage?" Chen Yu looked at Sophie with hazy eyes.
Sophie: "Master, a massage Skill is included in my programming."
"Alright, go for it!"
Chen Yu lay splayed out on the sofa.
Sophie stepped forward, placed her slender, fair fingers on his head, and began to press on his acupressure points with perfect precision.
Chen Yu closed his eyes in comfort.
His head, limbs, and torso... Under the stimulation of the special acupressure technique, Chen Yu felt like he was floating on cloud nine.
"Mmm, that’s nice. A little more pressure."
"Of course, Master!"
——
At the crack of dawn, Chen Yu woke from his dreams.
He opened his eyes to see Sophie standing there.
"Master, please have so water."
Sophie handed Chen Yu a glass of water.
Chen Yu nodded, took the glass, and drank it all in one go. He instantly felt much more refreshed.
"It’s nine o’clock." Chen Yu glanced at the ti.
’What a great sleep!’
"Thanks for your hard work."
Looking at Sophie, Chen Yu spoke.
Sophie: "Serving you is my purpose, Master."
Chen Yu nodded, then got up, went to the bathroom to wash up, and imdiately felt refreshed and clear-headed.
After having breakfast downstairs, Chen Yu went back to his room and entered the Spirit Realm.
Chen Yu’s figure appeared in the Spirit Realm White Palace.
He chose the training mode.
Activating his Biological Force Field, Chen Yu began to explore its abilities.
Back in the Crane Ridge Anomaly, he had only managed to get a rough feel for the Biological Force Field’s abilities; he hadn’t mastered it completely.
Perfectly mastering his first Golden Legendary Skill would be a huge boost to his power.
Force Field Flight, Force Field Control, Force Field Defense...
Four days passed in a flash.
「Spirit Realm White Palace.」
Chen Yu’s figure appeared again.
’This ti, I’ll try the Wilderness Mode.’
Looking at the three options, Chen Yu imdiately chose the Wilderness Mode.
For four days, aside from sleeping and training, he had spent most of his ti practicing his Biological Force Field Skill.
He was now completely in his elent.
His control over the Biological Force Field’s abilities had reached a state of perfection.
This ti, he wanted to challenge the Wilderness Mode!
To test his true combat strength!
The scene shifted. A prompt appeared before his eyes as the Spirit Realm Assistant’s voice rang out:
"Please select a difficulty level for Wilderness Mode."
"Level 1 Wilderness Mode: Spawns three Level 1 Mutant Beasts. Cost: 200 yuan."
"Level 2 Wilderness Mode: Spawns three Level 2 Mutant Beasts. Cost: 800 yuan."
"Level 3 Wilderness Mode: Spawns three Level 3 Mutant Beasts. Cost: 3,000 yuan."
"Level 4 Wilderness Mode: Spawns three Level 4 Mutant Beasts. Cost: 10,000 yuan."
"Level 5..."
"..."
’This is even more expensive than Combat Mode!’
Chen Yu’s eyelids twitched.
He wanted to try the Level 4 Wilderness Mode, but the price made him hesitate a bit.
Ten thousand!
It was twice as expensive as the Level 4 Combat Mode.
He still had a few tens of thousands of yuan in his account, but spending ten thousand at once really stung.
’Just this once.’
After a long mont of hesitation, Chen Yu decided to try it anyway.
’I can always earn more money!’
He had never fought a Level 4 Mutant Beast before.
The strongest monster he had encountered, even in the Crane Ridge Anomaly, was the chanical squid matriarch.
However, the chanical squid matriarch was different from a normal mutant beast; tests had only rated it as comparable to a single Level 4 Mutant Beast.
Three Level 4 Mutant Beasts... the difficulty was on a completely different level.
It was also a challenge!
"Paynt successful. This transaction was 10,000 yuan. Have a pleasant experience!"
"Please select a wilderness environnt."
The Spirit Realm Assistant’s voice sounded.
Several options then appeared before Chen Yu’s eyes.
Desert, Ocean, Gobi, Grassland, Wasteland...
Looking at the environnts, Chen Yu chose the Wasteland.
"Environnt selected!" the Spirit Realm Assistant’s voice announced. The mont it finished, the world around him instantly transford.
He found himself standing in a desolate wasteland.
The sky was dark, filled with rumbling thunder and flashing lightning.
It was nearly identical to a real wasteland.
And not far away, three behemoths appeared in Chen Yu’s sight.
Two Wilderness Wolves, one black gorilla!
A powerful aura swept over him, filling the air with an intense pressure.
Three Level 4 Mutant Beasts!
Chen Yu took a deep breath.
"Begin!"
SNAP—!
The Spirit Realm Assistant snapped its fingers, and the next second, a roar sounded.
ROAR—!
The air trembled as a sonic boom erupted. In an instant, the three mutant beasts were upon him.
The air compressed, as if forming a vacuum.
The black gorilla swung its four arms, its massive fists smashing through the air as they flew toward him.
VMMM—!
He activated his Biological Force Field, and a protective Force Field barrier enveloped his body.
BOOM!!!
The heavy fists slamd down, instantly distorting the Force Field barrier as the force penetrated it.
Chen Yu was thrown backward, his body shuddering and his blood roiling. Fortunately, the protective Force Field barrier didn’t shatter, and he was able to withstand the force that bled through.
SWISH SWISH SWISH!!!
The next second, however, the air whistled as several spikes, sharp as steel needles, shot toward him.
