"I finally made it to the finals, but unfortunately I ran into Xiao Jing. I couldn't even make it to the quarterfinals, and ended up becoming the background of the fastest race record. It was so miserable."
Jiang Siwei adjusted her glasses and shrugged.
“It’s already pretty miserable to be accepted as a disciple by that Martial Saint… maybe there really is such a thing as luck in this world.” Yin Muhu said.
Jiang Siwei patted the non-existent dust on Xue Jing's clothes and said with a smile:
"You played really well this time, Xiao Jing, you are really amazing... You don't have to worry about those off-court factors. As long as you keep winning, you can suppress all the voices."
She was a little worried that Xue Jing would be affected by the abusive and sarcastic voices online and at the scene.
"I know, don't worry, Sister Wei." Xue Jing smiled and said.
After that, the second round of the round of 16 began soon.
This match was between Zhou Yinglin and someone Xue Jing didn't know.
He also solved the problem perfectly and instantly, showing his absolute strength gap with other players, and the cheers on the scene were extremely loud.
Xue Jing also went to the players' viewing area to watch the game, and once again collected some perfect data to make up for the shortcomings of 'Zhou Yinglin' in the consciousness simulation.
Then he left in Ning Yuantai's car and returned to the Zhige base.
"The next three days are a time of rest and recuperation."
Xue Jing thought about it and felt that he had plenty of time, just enough to deal with some things.
For example... the request from Yoharu Amen.
Before he set out for Yuancheng, Wu Youqing asked him to go to Qingda Library, told him about Zhou Yinglin, and also asked him to do something.
Let’s go back a few days in time.
…
"Also, when you go to Yuancheng this time, I have something to ask of you."
Xue Jing heard this and nodded, "Okay."
Wu Youqing smiled and said, "I haven't said anything yet, are you okay? Would you go if I asked you to die?"
Xue Jing waved his hand:
"As long as it's something you ask of me, Boss, I will go through fire and water without hesitation. If you frown even once, your daughter and I have the same last name!"
Wu Youqing nodded with satisfaction at first, and then suddenly realized that there was something wrong with what Xue Jing said.
Her heart skipped a beat for unknown reason, but her appearance showed no change. She just looked unhappy and picked up the hardcover book in her hand and tapped Xue Jing's head lightly.
"Don't take advantage of me, you little rascal."
Xue Jing smiled and said, "So what's the matter?"
Wu Youqing stretched out her hand to gather her long, smooth hair and said softly:
"Skyscraper Center... you know that, right?"
Xue Jing nodded.
Even if you don’t know much about the inner ring, you can still understand this world-famous greatest miracle in human architectural history.
"The skyscraper center of the Fifth Metropolitan Circle is sold to the public, and nearly 7,000 floors have been sold to date."
Wu Youqing said.
"And among these seven thousand floors, floors 1002 to 1102 are exclusively owned by a super company... called 'Xu's Biology'."
"You should still remember the man you met during your first mission to collect the divine relic."
Xue Jing thought about it and nodded.
After taking in [Crown of the Evil Woman], a man jumped out and asked him to hand over the divine relic. Later, he was burned to death by Shadow Flame. He was also the first person he killed in his life.
"I investigated that person later and found out that he was a C-level intern at the Xu's Internship Company..."
"And 'Xu's Shelter' and 'Xu's Biology' are both assets of the Xu family, one of the Thirteen Great Families."
Wu Youqing spoke slowly and eloquently.
"A considerable portion of the divine relics collected by Xu's Containment Company will be stored in Xu's Biological... I need you to sneak into the floor of Xu's Biological in the Skyscraper Center and help me find a divine relic. You can steal it or rob it."
Xue Jing nodded. This shouldn't be too difficult for him, so he asked:
"What kind of divine relic is this?"
Wu Youqing said: "GOD-098: The Wind That Started All Things."
…
Recalling what Wu Youqing had said about the divine relic, Xue Jing drummed his fingers on the armrest of the sofa.
GOD-098…
To this day, Xue Jing has never seen a divine relic ranked within the top three hundred.
Although I have come into contact with GOD-005 Mirror World, that is only one of the countless sides of the Mirror World.
Apart from the mirror world, the most specific information he had heard about the relics of the former Hundred Gods was GOD-035 Giant God Machina... and it was something that was unlikely to be gathered together.
This is enough to show the mystery of the relics of the hundred gods before the sequence.
And now, he needs to steal one himself.
"We have to be prepared and go check out the spot first."
Xue Jing thought about it, took out his cell phone and called Ning Yuantai, asking him to come home for dinner.
The latter immediately agreed happily.
When the cat heard Xue Jing's phone call, it woke up from its sleep as if under stress and stared at Xue Jing in a daze.
But then Xue Jing picked it up and kept stroking its fur with his superb skills. Soon, the cat, who had not gotten enough sleep, fell into a deep sleep again comfortably.
After carrying the cat to the room upstairs to sleep, Xue Jing went downstairs to cook a meal.
Ning Yuantai arrived quickly, devoured all the dishes in no time, then sat on the sofa and picked his teeth in satisfaction.
"Yuantae, I have something to ask of you."
Xue Jing spoke softly.
Ning Yuantai had always responded to Xue Jing's requests, and he felt very grateful at this moment. He immediately patted his chest and said proudly:
"If you have anything to say, just tell me. I will go through fire and water without hesitation if you give me an order. If you frown..."
Xue Jing felt that this sounded familiar, so he quickly stopped him and said:
"There's no need to go through all that trouble. It's like this..."
Of course he couldn't tell anyone about the plan to steal the divine relics. Xue Jing only mentioned that he hoped to visit Xu's Biological Company in the skyscraper center. He heard that there were many divine relics stored there.
Ning Yuantai knew Xue Jing's love for divine relics, so he didn't doubt it. He just nodded and said:
"I have some connections with the Xu Group, so I'll try to contact them... Don't worry, Brother Xue, at worst you can go through the Sixth Agency. I'll definitely let you go there!"
…
Chapter 242 Zhou Yinglin's only chance to defeat Xue Jing, Skyscraper Center, Thirteen Mansions (4K)
I made an appointment with Ning Yuantai about this matter. He said that it would be done tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and then he said goodbye and left.
After he left, Xue Jing went to the kitchen again and made a special meal for the cat.
Otherwise, when she wakes up, she will find out that Ning has stolen a meal from her when she wasn't paying attention, and the next time they meet, it will really become a cat-murder case.
After finishing, Xue Jing glanced at the panel and found that in the past few days, his [Cooking Skills] had already sprinted towards Lv8, and he only needed a few hundred experience points to upgrade.
After getting up, the cat looked at the table full of dishes with a suspicious look on his face, as if he had heard something he didn't want to hear while he was half asleep and half awake.
But with delicious food in front of her, she didn't care too much about it. She started showing off immediately, enjoying a long-awaited big meal made by Xue Jing alone. She ate so much that her belly was so full that she looked like she was pregnant with twenty kittens.
Xue Jing went to the rooftop to start his daily practice.
By the time I finished practicing the Sleeping Dragon Technique, the Doujia Technique, the Huangpo Technique and the like, several hours had passed.
At this time, the vitality he transferred to Yin Muhu had been completely restored.
So continue the consciousness simulation.
This time, as soon as he constructed the consciousness space and formed the super arena, Xue Jing felt something different.
"Um?"
As his body condensed, Xue Jing stood in the center of the ring and looked up at the sky.
The clouds in the sky... are moving.
"Is this... dynamic weather?"
Xue Jing was slightly stunned.
Every time he simulated a scene before, the weather conditions were set subjectively by him, whether it was raining or sunny, day or night, and it would remain the same as it was set at the beginning.
But now, he did not set it deliberately, but the weather seemed to be changing naturally.
"Consciousness simulations are becoming more and more real..."
Shaking his head, Xue Jing's mind moved, and Zhou Yinglin, holding a nine-foot spear, quickly appeared opposite him.
This was the second time I watched Zhou Yinglin's game in person, so I supplemented and revised this person's data, making it closer to the real Zhou Yinglin.
As soon as he was born, Zhou Yinglin was slightly startled when he saw Xue Jing, and immediately put up his gun and faced Xue Jing.
“Swish, swish, swish!!”
A torrent of gunfire covered Xue Jing, stabbing at fatal points all over his body. Countless changes followed, blocking all resistance and avoidance.
Xue Jing stood still, his whole body empty, enduring it with the "return to nothingness".
“Ding ding ding ding—”
There were continuous crisp sounds, and the tip of the gun hit Xue Jing's body, but it did not cause any harm, but only stirred up circles of ripples in the air.
But after all sixteen of his shots were blocked, Zhou Yinglin seemed to realize something was wrong and immediately changed the force of his shot.
This was a purely random shot, its lethality and skill were far inferior to that of Perfect.
However, this shot was beyond Xue Jing's expectations.
It's like taking an exam with all the advanced math problems on the paper, and suddenly you see an elementary school math problem on the paper that only requires addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Although he could solve this kind of problem quickly, he was still stunned by this unexpected scene.
This slight gap caused Xue Jing's "Fanwu" to have no reaction to the gunshot. He could only instinctively use his strength to defend, which resulted in a bloody hole in his right shoulder.
After Zhou Yinglin succeeded with this shot, he took advantage of Xue Jing's flaw and smoothly delivered the next shot perfectly, and the torrent of gunfire came again.
Xue Jing's body reappeared on the big stage, his eyes thoughtful.
"The current 'Return to Nothingness' is still very immature..."
"But it's okay. This improvisation method can only work on me once. After I'm mentally prepared, the surprise effect of this move is useless."
Xue Jing glanced at Zhou Yinglin next to him.
"What a shame! This might be your only chance to beat me in real life... and now I know it in advance."
Hearing this, Zhou Yinglin's face changed and he looked annoyed.
Xue Jing watched in amazement.
"The Level 9 [Visualization·True] consciousness simulation is so realistic that it not only has a dynamic weather system, but the simulated people have the ability to think for themselves, and they even saw the flaws in my 'Return to Nothingness' and made temporary changes..."
“Not bad, not bad.”
Xue Jing patted Zhou Yinglin on the shoulder and praised him.
…
The next day at noon.
Xue Jing was sitting on the sofa in the living room conducting a consciousness simulation.
After another full day of simulated training, his "Tian Yi Wu Wu" had reached the level of thirty-seven shots, and his "Fan Wu" had also become proficient enough to block thirty-three shots.
