Chapter 1497 Shadow (1/2)
”Old Han, how are you doing lately?” At the docking station of Planet Gunat, Tang Zhenliu welcomed Han Sen and Ji Yanran. Then, he took them to visit the kindergarten.
”I'm doing fine, what with the steady acceleration of strength, money, and handsomeness. I have a son now, too. Nothing else special, really,” Han Sen said.
”If I wasn't weaker than you, I'd kill you right now.” Tang Zhenliu gave a smile that showed his teeth.
”How have you been recently?” Han Sen asked Tang Zhenliu.
”Me and Old Lin are still struggling in the Third God's Sanctuary. There's still a while to go before I max out my super geno points there. At this rate, it might take me another ten years before I'm able to become a demi-god.”
Tang Zhenliu sighed. Then, he went on to say, ”You're the sort that walks too fast, and no one else is able to keep up. Old Lin is working hard, too, you know. To max out one's super geno points and become a demi-god is not something achievable within a mere couple of years.”
”I was just lucky, then.” Han Sen opened his hands.
Han Sen was being honest, though. It was the succession of fortunate developments that allowed him to become so strong over such a short period of time. Tang Zhenliu and Lin Feng were talented, they just lacked the luck. It stunted their growth, by comparison.
”Anyway, you really hurt my feelings. Although this is my place, I'm still going to ask that you buy me dinner.” Tang Zhenliu sounded a little angry.
”The whole of Planet Gunat is yours! I can't find a place to buy you something here.” Han Sen laughed.
”I don't care. But each expense will be on you,” Tang Zhenliu said, then proceeded to take them to the kindergarten.
The entirety of Planet Gunat was focused around kindergarten schools. In different areas of the place, they even had creatures that were copies of those that could be found in the First God's Sanctuary. For instance, there were black bugs that looked like those Han Sen fought in the First God's Sanctuary. They looked exactly alike.
The shape, speed, strength, and attack pattern were the same as the real thing. They were robots with AI tailored to train the babies and provide them knowledge regarding creatures and such before they entered the sanctuaries.
”Technology is pretty great these days, isn't it? We didn't have things like this before. When I was in school, we only had instructional videos to watch. Now we can have actual fights, I see.” Han Sen complimented what he was seeing.
Tang Zhenliu smiled and said, ”We had that technology before, but you went to a school that was for anyone. You didn't have the specialized treatment we can provide. Here, now, things are more delicate. These creatures are ninety-nine percent real, and most of the creatures you used to see in the First God's Sanctuary can be found here. They are quite expensive to make.”
”But my school was cheaper than your school,” Han Sen said. One simple year of education on Planet Gunat cost more than many people would earn throughout their entire lifetime.
”Haha! How else am I going to make money? But the Tang family school has the best education available, and it employs the greatest technology you can find in the Alliance. Many high-tier Alliance members and demi-gods send their kids to my school, I'll have you know.” Tang Zhenliu paused and continued to say, ”And that's another important point to factor in. The people who come here to study are of the absolute finest tier of the Alliance. They are our future. This works as a smaller society that prepares them for a bigger society in the future.”
”Poor kids.” Han Sen gave a wry smile.
