Zhang Jie's Problem

After completing their enhancements and training, Zhan Lan still had over seventy reward points left.

Zheng Zha had even more reward points. Before returning to the Resident Evil World for Score Grinding, he had a balance of around fifteen hundred. After buying supplies and paying for full-body restoration, he had roughly four hundred left.

After returning from Score Grinding, Zheng Zha had two thousand reward points remaining after his Exchange, bringing his total to twenty-four hundred points.

After spending two thousand on training, two hundred on panaceas, and one hundred on gold, he still had a hundred points left.

As for Uchiha Gen, he still had around thirty-five hundred reward points after his Exchange. After training for three hundred days, undergoing full-body restoration several times, and buying a few miscellaneous items, he now had a little over a hundred points left.

Theoretically, they could afford to vacation in a Horror movie.

At that moment, Zheng Zha was tempted as well.

Over the past period, although he had taken Li'er with him to train in the Resident Evil World and they had spent two hundred days together from morning to night,

the training schedule Uchiha Gen, their Captain, had arranged was simply too intense. Zheng Zha only had a brief period with Luo Li each day after training, before washing up and going to sleep. They had barely even been intimate.

Under such circumstances, his nerves had been stretched tight.

If they could think about nothing, do nothing, and just go have fun for a few days, that would naturally be wonderful.

"Captain, did you forget? We've been so busy training that we still haven't tested the Yu Tian Ring and the Pulse King."

"How about we Exchange for five days, go to the Resident Evil World and have fun for three days, then spend two days testing the Yu Tian Ring, the Pulse King, and the equipment you just configured for us, so we can learn how to use them? Then we'll return to the Main God Space and wait for the Horror movie to begin."

"What do you think?"

Afraid that Uchiha Gen would refuse, Zheng Zha came up with another reason to persuade him.

At this time, Zhan Lan also looked at Uchiha Gen hopefully, expecting him to agree.

"Sounds good."

Uchiha Gen nodded.

In the reincarnation world, being too lax would get them killed, but Zheng Zha's idea balanced relaxation with preparing for the next Horror movie.

Uchiha Gen had no reason to object.

In truth, he also felt that taking a break would be nice.

"Go prepare what you want to bring. I'll go talk to Brother Jie."

Uchiha Gen spoke.

It was time to find a solution to certain matters.

Zhang Jie's existence raised the Central Continent Team's evaluation and reduced its rewards. Though he was a powerful combatant, the Main God restricted him to merely coasting along, and he was also blocking access to the Captain's authority.

But he was a good person—a good person with formidable strength, practically a Tier 4 Transcendent.

If possible, Uchiha Gen was willing to save a good person. He also wanted the Central Continent Team to truly gain another powerful combatant they could use.

Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan exchanged a glance, carried the supplies piled on the floor back into their rooms, and began preparing what they would bring for their outing.

At that moment, Uchiha Gen knocked on Zhang Jie's door.

At the doorway, Uchiha Gen and Zhang Jie looked at each other.

Uchiha Gen clearly saw the complicated emotions in Zhang Jie's eyes and could roughly guess what he was thinking.

Nothing more than the fact that the Central Continent Team's three newcomers had directly unlocked their Gene Locks, then diligently farmed points during the interval before the next Horror movie. As a Half-Guide and Half-captain, Zhang Jie was being urged by the Main God to quickly begin Captain certification.

And once Captain certification began, Zhang Jie, the Half-Guide, would die. He did not want to die.

Although Zhang Jie had used the excuse that there were three newcomers with Gene Lock potential and he could not immediately decide who should become Captain, intending to observe them longer, to brush off the Main God's urging,

there was still a sense that his days were numbered lingering in Zhang Jie's heart.

Now that he saw Uchiha Gen, the instigator of it all, and sensed the powerful Chakra around him that faintly carried an oppressive air, his feelings naturally became complicated.

"Brother Jie, I just prepared a Central Continent Team uniform with Exoskeleton Armor for you and brought it over. Also, we're planning to vacation in a Horror movie world for a few days. Would you and sister-in-law like to come?"

Uchiha Gen smiled as he explained why he had come.

"I see. Come in."

Zhang Jie's lips moved a few times. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he could not bring himself to speak.

So he could only invite Uchiha Gen inside.

After Na'er, the woman he had created, served tea, the living room fell into a long silence. Zhang Jie finally could not resist lighting a cigarette.

"Is there anything you want to ask?"

After a long silence, Zhang Jie finally spoke.

To avoid trouble earlier, Zhang Jie had used the A-rank mental skill Eye of Suggestion to hypnotize Uchiha Gen and the other two, making them ignore all the unreasonable aspects and overlook his existence until the Horror movie was about to begin.

Yet he had not expected Uchiha Gen to come over early.

With Uchiha Gen's current strength, if they truly fell out, Zhang Jie felt that he might not necessarily be able to defeat him.

After all, he only excelled in Mental Strength. His double A-rank Telekinesis and hypnosis were powerful under a Guide's authority to use them at one hundred percent, enough to rival a Tier 4 Transcendent, but his physical body was very fragile.

And the man opposite him happened to be a Saiyan Uchiha with powerful mental abilities who also excelled in close combat. He countered Zhang Jie in every way.

So Zhang Jie chose to have a proper talk with Uchiha Gen.

"Judging by your expression, you seem to have a friend who has run into trouble. You can tell me your friend's story. Maybe I can help your friend."

Uchiha Gen subtly prompted Zhang Jie, allowing him to use this method to evade the Main God's surveillance.

The Main God was a strange thing. It could indeed be intelligent at times, but calling it rigid would not be wrong either. Sometimes, it only followed fixed rules.

"I do have a friend who has run into trouble. He wants to live, but someone is forcing him to die."

"The pressure he faces is too great. He can't think of a way to survive safely."

Zhang Jie indirectly explained his situation.

It was not as if he had never considered getting all the newcomers killed to save himself, but he could not overcome his conscience. He also knew that even if he did so, he would merely be clinging to life.

If he truly angered the Main God, then to fix him, this bug, the Main God could throw him into Final Destination once, and next time it could throw him into a world with immortals and gods.

Shu Mountain or Journey to the West.

"Being forced to die just means you aren't strong enough. You can work hard to increase your strength."

"The Main God brought us in so that we could evolve. Not long ago, I completed an evolution and unlocked an ability called the Gene Lock. If the degree of evolution is high enough, perhaps you can break your shackles with overwhelming power."

"If the First Stage Gene Lock isn't enough, then unlock the Second Stage. If the Second Stage isn't enough, then the Third, Fourth, and Fifth Stages!"

Uchiha Gen spoke, suggesting that Zhang Jie try raising his Gene Lock level.

As long as he could reach the Fourth Stage, the Main God would be reluctant to erase him. Reaching Fourth-Stage Intermediate would automatically grant him human rights, and perhaps the Main God would recognize him as a qualified Reincarnator.
