Chapter 1060: The Rules of God-level
In the Land of Heritage, inside the Truth Department Building.
Once Ren Ruofeng presented the current situation, few of the powerhouses immediately frowned.
Elder Xu then probed a question, “For a long time now, magic energy has only been produced by manpower. Could we not try to mechanize it for larger productions?”
“Haha…” Ren Ruofeng was speechless.
“Elder Xu, the words you just said was similar to telling a primitive man that their hunting efficiency is too low and they should just buy the meat in a market instead.” Elder Hai sighed while shaking his head.
“Eh, our mysterious technique now is on the same level as a primitive man, but the Upper Realm has been developing for a billion years. Do we have no other option but to use this inefficient human-production of magical energy?” Elder Xu said as he pointed at the information in front of him, unwilling to reconcile.
“Yes, Elder Xu asked a good question. At this stage, it’s probably time for us to consider the path of industrial production. These are the advantages of human civilization,” Ren Ruofeng said as he nodded his head.
“Elder Xu has a point. The gods in the Upper Realm are not fools. Why had they not given these things a thought? Or was it because this plan is impossible to accomplish?” Elder Hai said as he nodded his head.
“The gods can’t help as they start to decay over time, and they’ll put various kinds of suppression on the mortals just to maintain their system. Similar to the Qing Dynasty, if not due to external power, it probably would’ve stayed the same for a few hundred thousands of years,” Ren Ruofeng said in disdain and continued, “No matter, we should set up our programs in advance, and assemble a team of mechanics to do some research. Carefully analyze the human magical energy cultivation process, and examine whether or not machines can replace humans.”
“Yes, we can’t easily speak of failure before attempting anything, let’s do that first.”
The powerhouses then nodded their heads in agreement.
“Wait a minute, as the production of the magical energy increases, we’ll start running out of magical energy crystals for storage soon. We can’t keep counting on the Great Venerable Dragon God to produce them, we’ll have to think of a way to solve this on our own.” Ren Ruofeng raised another issue on hand.
“Haih, this would be difficult as well; this kind of talisman’s requirement is quite high. You could say that it’s far beyond our technological capabilities.” Elder Xu, the institute’s elder, sighed while he shook his head.
He was very clear about the difficulty level of the technique required for these kinds of talisman and was afraid that only a god could do it. It would be really hard to accomplish with only human technology.
“From this point of view, I feel like, in this Era of Mystery, most things could only be accomplished through handwork as it seems like it’s restricted by some kind of rules. We’re unsure of the whys, but the work of a machine just can’t achieve such results,” Elder Xu said in a serious tone
.
“Let’s just try it out first, then we’ll see. As the saying goes, human wisdom prevails over nature. That’s the advantage of human civilization, which is innovation and the will to forge ahead. If we’re a stick-in-the-mud, it will only lead to a dead-end,” Ren Ruofeng said in perseverance.
“Alright, let’s launch this project together.”
…
Three days later, in the System Space.
The Heavenly Book baby flew out as it paced back and forth outside the lounge.
“Broken system, I need to see the master.”
“What’s the matter?” Sir asked before it immediately felt dissatisfied and continued, “You little rude b*stard, you can’t even call me father now? How dare you call me a broken system?”
“Cheh, all I have now is master. I have no father.” Heavenly Book baby then started to flash out a golden light — a futile attempt in trying to blind the system’s d*mn eyes.
“D*mn it, I see that you’re trying to rebel now. Your master’s been forcefully shut down by me. Today, I’m going to make you realize who the real master in this house is!” Sir said furiously.
“What are you going to do? I’m telling you, master has his own way to mess you up,” Heavenly Book baby replied stubbornly.”
“I am a God-level system now!” Sir said proudly, “Do you know why the frogs and parrots are afraid when they hear the sound of my voice?”
“Cheh, you’re just a violent system, they’re afraid of you because you beat them up. But I’m different from them and I have my own master, do you dare to lay a finger on me?” Heavenly Book baby said fearlessly, knowing he had a back-up.
“Let’s have a go at it!” Sir replied in utter dissatisfaction.
The golden light all over Heavenly Book baby disappeared, then reappeared in a single flash.
System Notification: [The System attempted to attack a Master-level Deterrence book, the attack has been prohibited by force. The Master-level Deterrence book was a talisman belonging to the host, the System is not allowed to attack without cause.]
“Hahaha!” Heavenly Book laughed as it flashed the pages of the book. Then, it continued proudly, “Do you understand now, broken system?”
“D*mn it, this is impossible!” Sir System said resentfully, “Am I not allowed to teach my own created-son a lesson? What kind of broken system’s rule is this?”
“You’re wrong. A wise man once said, the son is not a parent’s accessories, they possess their own independent dignity,” Heavenly Book said with a tone of justice.
“Nurture really does determine a person’s character. You and that loser host have been hanging out together for too long. You’re getting infected by his defective ways!” Sir said as he could only attack with his words.
“Heh, you’re talking bad about him behind his back. Does this even comply with the Hero Path?” Heavenly Book baby countered back.
