Unlocking a New Mission

"Claim points!"

Inside the office, Zhou Feiyu locked the door to prevent anyone from entering, then eagerly claimed the reward points for completing the first mission.

"Current points: 25600!"

Just as Zhou Feiyu had anticipated, acquiring points through conventional means, relying on years of time and study to accumulate them, offered little hope of unlocking all the knowledge and technology within the Galaxy Technology Library in his lifetime. Only by earning points through missions was there a chance.

It was like playing a game; mission points were always abundant, and there were various other rewards.

Currently, the first mission only offered points and no other rewards, but Zhou Feiyu still looked forward to future developments.

25600 points was a large sum.

The "Basic Optical Film" technology, which crushed similar domestic products and surpassed the King Material that was half a century ahead of the world, only cost him 5000 points.

Zhou Feiyu really wanted to spend all these points at once to see if he could unlock other, more advanced technologies.

But Zhou Feiyu didn't act impulsively. Instead, he looked elsewhere and, with a thought, chose to confirm the start of the next stage of knowledge missions.

"Ding! Congratulations, you have made the correct and brave choice. You now have three options to choose from:

1) Academic pursuits begin with papers, and masters are built on theory. Please independently publish an SCI Paper. Confirm whether to claim?

2) My life has limits, but knowledge is boundless. Please obtain a graduate degree and raise all subject levels to LV2. Confirm whether to claim?

3) The field of materials is vast and full of potential. Please choose one niche market and develop a unique technology to gain dominance in that market (excluding Basic Optical Film technology). Confirm whether to claim?"

After successfully claiming, the light screen, in addition to the knowledge parameters, displayed three more options.

Emmm...

Excluding Basic Optical Film technology, this Galaxy Technology Library was truly urging him forward, which aligned with Zhou Feiyu's expectations for the Galaxy Technology Library.

Developing a unique technology and gaining dominance in the market – if he could have chosen "Basic Optical Film," he believed the time required would have been greatly reduced, especially since his "Fei Yang New Material Technology Company" was already setting sail. However, developing other technologies would take a long time just in the development phase.

Even with the Galaxy Technology Library as a cheat, Zhou Feiyu estimated it would take one or two months.

Papers?

Zhou Feiyu felt quite tempted just thinking about it. It seemed very promising. At least putting together the theoretical design for "Basic Optical Film" would surely be an impressive paper.

But he quickly gave up. It was better to keep a low profile for now.

If he had developed it entirely on his own merit, he would definitely publish more papers to build his reputation, afraid that others wouldn't know. Because only then could he attract investment and gain recognition from the state and society as a whole, which would be very beneficial for future development.

But now, it wasn't suitable for him to be in the spotlight. He would wait for the future.

As for the second mission, after a little thought, Zhou Feiyu felt it was very necessary.

Improving his knowledge and academic level was not only a practical need but also a future one. At least when others saw him constantly inventing things, they would think he was highly educated and capable, and wouldn't immediately suspect something was wrong. Well, at least on the surface, it had to be plausible.

Ultimately, Zhou Feiyu chose the second and third missions.

The knowledge panel immediately changed, displaying additional information.

"Mission One: Obtain a graduate degree and raise all subject levels to LV2. Claimed. Current mission duration: three years.

Mission Two: Develop a unique material and gain dominance in the market. Claimed. Current mission duration: one year!"

Most graduate students also study for three years, which is quite normal.

But to have the technology he developed dominate the market within a year, this made Zhou Feiyu's eyes widen. Damn, I was too hasty.

"Well, looks like I'll have to spend a large sum of points again."

Zhou Feiyu thought helplessly. The only shortcut to completing the entire mission was to find a technology from the Galaxy Technology Library.

His consciousness quickly sank into the Galaxy Technology Library.

The incredibly magnificent Galaxy Technology Library was like a galaxy. As his consciousness entered it, it felt as if he was in the middle of a galaxy, making him dizzy and mesmerized.

Most areas were dim, with only one grid after another visible. Each grid displayed book after book. Zhou Feiyu knew that each book was a segment of a branch of knowledge. For example, the grids that were lit up had books inside that were glowing. He had basically explored all of them, and they were all knowledge from Earth, including knowledge from elementary school to university, covering humanities, science and technology, astronomy, geography, unofficial histories, strange tales, and so on.

Among them, the books in one grid were particularly bright, far exceeding the light emitted by the sphere storing Earth's knowledge. It was none other than the "Basic Optical Film" technology.

It seemed that the higher the level of knowledge, the brighter the light emitted by the books used for storage.

Zhou Feiyu's consciousness looked forward. On the surface of the dense, dim grids, it either said "Your current knowledge level is insufficient, you cannot view" or "To unlock this technology, you need xxx points". From this, he could distinguish that applied technologies required points to unlock, while theoretical knowledge required a certain knowledge level to unlock. Once the knowledge level was reached, these theoretical knowledge could be viewed freely.

Just like the knowledge from Earth, Zhou Feiyu could view it freely without any obstacles.

Looking along, the further forward he went, the higher the points required for the technologies in those grids. 5000 was just the starting point, 10000 was just the beginning, followed by 20000, even 100000, 1000000, and so on, which left Zhou Feiyu dumbfounded.

However, the names of those technologies also made Zhou Feiyu's heart surge.

Lithium-Air Battery Technology, Intermediate Thin Film Technology, Basic Photovoltaic Technology, Intermediate Gene Editing Technology, High-Strength Steel Technology... Chaos Programming Language, Strong Artificial Intelligence Technology, Artificial Intelligence Technology, High-Power Turbine Engine Technology... Nuclear Fusion Technology, Nano-Bot Technology, Plasma Engine Technology, Small Nuclear Fusion Engine Technology, Advanced Gene Editing Technology...

Any one of these technologies, if brought out, would be enough to shock the entire world and possess a powerful influence capable of reshaping the world's structure.

Knock knock!

There were a few knocks on the door.

"Feiyu, are you in there?"

It was Xiao Jianguo's voice. After asking, he added, "My wife is back and is reporting to the company now."

Zhou Feiyu was startled awake and opened his eyes.

"Okay, let her come in. I was just thinking of talking to her."

Zhou Feiyu got up and opened the door.
