Book 4: Chapter 58:1: The Aggressive Liz, Part 1
Chen Heng received enough points to repair his Precognition in just a minute. This…was a sudden huge profit.
He Who Knows Fate: Didn’t you guys say you weren’t going to buy a cultivation technique? Especially you, @Iron Fist Teacher.
Iron Fist Teacher: About this…I saw that the cultivation techniques were quite cheap, and the note said I could use it multiple times (five times), except I could not share it with other members using other means, so I bought one for my family.
He Who Knows Fate: Didn’t you just buy medicinal pills for extending lifespan?
Iron Fist Teacher: They don’t clash. Even if I don’t eat those medicinal pills myself, giving them to others is also an excellent option. After all, I live in a normal world with no ridiculous abilities. Such pills are extremely rare, alright?
Chen Heng suddenly felt he had missed a great opportunity.
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: This…He Who Knows Fate, can the immortals of your world crush planetary bodies and explode stars?
He Who Knows Fate: That’s right. Why?
Efreet: Ex-explode stars?!
Queen of Ice and Snow: …I initially thought it was expensive. It turns out He Who Knows Fate had set a friendship price already.
Lord of the White Night: Right, right. Honestly, the 20,000 points are worth it.
Umaru-chan: Explode stars… No. I’ll bankrupt myself to get a cultivation technique!
He Who Knows Fate: Umaru-chan, calm down. Although you can explode a star after becoming an immortal, I don’t recommend you buy these in your early stages, as it takes too long to cultivate.
He Who Knows Fate: Furthermore, some worlds have more Spiritual Energy, and some worlds have less. Kal’tsit’s world has plenty of Spiritual Energy, maybe because the limit of the world’s combat prowess is quite high, and no one uses the Spiritual Energy. I’m not too sure.
Umaru-chan: Explode stars…explode stars…
Iron Fist Teacher: That’s enough. Your planet is crying. Are you dissatisfied with Earth?
Umaru-chan: No…
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: Then grow your ability the proper way. Your ability has great potential.
Umaru-chan: Hah…got it…

Time: 1 p.m.
Location: Penguin Logistics’s transport vehicle.
People: Chen Heng, Nightingale, Skadi, Exusiai, and Texas.
“Don’t worry. I will take good care of Night…Liz. I promise she will have fun.”
“Have fun!” said Shining to Nightingale.
“Don’t worry!”
“He Who Knows Fate, don’t be gone for too long. I’ll wait for you in Rhodes Island. Come back earlier, my seven-star operator. When you return, I’ll get you an Elite 1 promotion.” This was Doctor.
Chen Heng felt the chances of Doctor getting him an Elite 1 promotion were very slim, as Kal’tsit would not permit it.
“Don’t worry, Doctor. I won’t be back for a while.”
“Sob! Sob! Don’t!”
With Texas driving, the five set off for Lungmen.
After the vehicle started, Exusiai, who was in the front passenger seat, suddenly turned her head around and said to Chen Heng, “He Who Knows Fate, before we go, let’s make this clear first. Do you remember what you said?”
“Don’t worry. Even if a monk runs, the temple cannot run. If I run, you can come to Rhodes Island and find me.” Sorry, Kal’tsit. I can only trouble you with this.
“That’s good. Speaking of which, the tightly wrapped-up one is Doctor, right? She seems reluctant to let you leave.”
“Hah! Reluctant? I feel she just wants me to work. She will not let me rest until all 24 points of my Morale are drained. Rather than reluctant, it’s more that she wants my body.”
Chen Heng understood the ugly side of these researcher types, as he was one himself. He knew what fate awaited him if he remained.
“…Is Rhodes Island’s treatment of their operators that bad?” Exusiai somewhat doubted Chen Heng’s words.
“Why not? Don’t we have an example here?” Chen Heng patted Skadi’s shoulder.
“You are Skadi, right? Does Rhodes Island really treat their staff this poorly?” Exusiai had been to Rhodes Island several times and had heard of Skadi.
“This…” Skadi did not know what to say.
“Let me put it this way. Skadi, do you go on another Rhodes Island mission after returning from a mission and resting for just one day?”
“Yes…”
“Are those missions difficult? Are the enemies extremely strong for ordinary operators?”
“Yes…”
“That’s it, then.”
“Ah! This…Initially, our boss wanted us to work with Rhodes Island more, sending operators on exchange. It looks like I will have to raise this with my boss.”
“…Exusiai, I was just joking earlier. Don’t believe what I said.” If Exusiai believed Chen Heng’s earlier words and told Penguin Logistics about it, he would be guilty of ruining Rhodes Island’s cooperation with Rhodes Island. Kal’tsit would chop him up.
“But Skadi said she only gets to rest for a while….”
“That’s because Skadi does not want to remain in Rhodes Island, so she volunteers to go on missions.”
“But Skadi faces strong enemies….”
“That’s because Skadi is strong. Do you believe she can easily beat you up like you are a kid? Furthermore, Skadi volunteers.”
“You were criticizing them so hard earlier, and now you are defending them with all your might. What are you planning?” Exusiai now fully turned around, kneeling on the front passenger seat as she narrowed her eyes at Chen Heng.
“Planning? I’m not planning anything. I just don’t want Kal’tsit to hunt me down. Making a joke is one thing, but Kal’tsit will not let me off if I ruin Rhodes Island’s relationship with Penguin Logistics.”
“You are glib.”
“Indeed, Chen Heng is very glib. After all, he could coax the young me to call him Hus—Hmmm! Hmmm!” Chen Heng covered Nightingale’s mouth in mid-sentence.
“Liz, don’t. At least not here…Just tell me if you want anything. I’ll buy them for you when we reach Lungmen. Nod if you agree.” Chen Heng could not let Liz say it. If she did, his reputation would be ruined. Skadi would be fine, and he did not need to worry about Texas. However, Exusiai…he worried about her, especially since he was planning to run on her.
Chen Heng looked at Nightingale seriously, hoping she would nod and agree. However, he suddenly felt a wet sensation on his palm covering her mouth. Could it be…
