Leaving

Rose's electronic grid is a strategic move by the senior engineer.

The collaboration with the Saint Brain Group is another strategic move.

In this way, no matter how fiercely the rich women fight, the one who ultimately wins is his little wolfhound.

In a secluded spot, the senior engineer revealed a sinister smile.

"Ahem, keep a low profile, keep a low profile. I need to make the rich woman feel like she has everything under control, otherwise how can I win without lifting a finger?"

With the activation of quantum computers, the computing power of Fuqing Island has increased tenfold.

With the addition of enterprise AI modules, the experimental center suddenly had hundreds of projectors, which are enterprise intelligence, for various recording and operations.

With the help of various advanced equipment from the Unreal Alliance, a large amount of "alien genes" were quickly translated.

Especially the remaining two complete 'gene chains'.

Blue-blooded humans, carbon-based fluid life forms.

Before leaving, the senior engineer will inevitably undergo implantation.

In addition, there are fibrous life forms, three alien bloodlines, and three biological transformations.

High-level "alien trash bloodline" might not be trash in the hands of a senior engineer.

In addition, the senior engineer opened the system panel.

Senior Technician at Factory No. 4, 20max

Radiation Department Variant Massage Therapist (Second Job Advancement) lv5

Senior Biologist (Level 1): lv5

War Hacker (Second Job Advancement): lv5

This is the status of the four deputy positions of senior engineer: one is at the maximum level, two are at the second job advancement level, and one is at the first job advancement level.

Just like other players, gaining experience is easy, but completing the job change quest is difficult.

Well, for players, gaining experience is also quite difficult.

Generally speaking, it's already quite impressive for a player to have a secondary profession and be able to reach the "max level" and acquire a professional knowledge chain before entering interstellar space.

In fact, the only achievement of the senior engineer in his previous life before he ran away was probably reaching level 30, the maximum level.

To be honest, this result is already quite good.

The thought flashed through my mind, and of the remaining three secondary professions, apart from the already triggered second job advancement for Biologist, the other two all triggered their quests—

"Bite--"

[You have triggered a job change quest: Radiation Science Key Project Research]

"Bite--"

[You have triggered a job change quest, AI War]

"Hmm, the masseuse's task is to massage a large-scale radiated species. A large-scale radiated species must be at least A-level, and a large-scale one most likely means it's a marine species."

"The last task for biologists is large-scale biological experiments, which is quite difficult."

"AI warfare, that's relatively simple."

After leaving the city that never sleeps, the senior engineer's short-term goal is to first max out the level of his three deputy positions.

The three deputy positions represent three professional knowledge chains.

With these three knowledge chains, many things become easier to do.

As for the rest, that depends on the players.

The senior engineer opened the game forum and switched to the Machine Rift Star section.

The forum was as lively as ever, with people posting nonsense, arguing, discussing the plot, recruiting people to do tasks, and some seemingly respectable people secretly posting lewd pictures.

However, a vague sense of unease appeared in the players' posts.

"Um, my company has an 8-hour workday. You read that right, 8 hours. That means as long as I'm online for eight hours a day doing my daily tasks, the rest of the time is my own business. Isn't that great?"

"Even better, we signed a 'life-splitting agreement.' During the 8-hour workday, my 'account' is completely handed over to the company, but after get off work, it's entirely my own to control. It's like just leaving the computer running for 8 hours straight—I gain both experience and money."

"Holy crap, what kind of company is this? It's amazing!"

Which company? Looking for a referral!

"666, AFK grinding experience? I'm so envious!"

Unsurprisingly, the post was followed by a series of comments from influential figures asking for protection.

"Ahem, let me finish. According to company policy, my memories from the company are not allowed to be taken out. So, don't ask me for recommendations; I don't even know what my job is."

"That's fine, after all, it's just idling, so it doesn't really matter how you idle. But what's starting to confuse me is that more and more evidence suggests that my company self has started contacting me..."

"Any high-level players looking to farm a boss? The monster is level 28, elite, equipped with an energy whip and a black market version of humanoid armor. It has around 2000 defense and a little over 4000 HP, and is good at melee combat. Looking for a sniper..."

"The monster is currently in the sea area at 133.431.511, moving at high speed. Let me see, it's moving south at once, and its speed is twice the speed of sound. Its status is... thirsty, it seems to want to drink water... no, it wants to drink blood."

"What level are you investigating? How do you even know about the monster's 'thirst' trait?"

"Yes, do you know what their weakness is?"

"Let me see. For the vital areas, the neck, the center of the shoulder blades, and between the legs... no, no, these won't do," the original poster replied.

"Why not? As the old saying goes, 'A lot of hair indicates a weak constitution, and a large body indicates a weak constitution.'"

"Yes, isn't sniping just like 'hitting the butt'?"

"Because that monster is me, so stop trying to mess with my back door, brothers," the poster named "Kiku Ukyo" posted with a shy emoji.

'...'

'...'

"What exactly happened, bro?"

"To put it simply, I bought a suit of body armor on the black market, and once I put it on, I couldn't take it off, similar to the person who posted above. The account is currently in 'managed' status."

This situation has been going on for a week now.

"Wait a minute, OP, I took on your task and finished it, didn't I?"

"It's all sorted out, but the problem is, I've only been back in the game for less than a day, and my previously 'dead' body has already come knocking again."

I highly recommend Wildfruit Reading; it's really good for tracking your books. Download it here.

Everyone should give it a try!

"And then... I was taken over again."

"Brothers, sisters, help! I've been stuck in this dungeon for almost a week! This dungeon is insane! Every day is the same, the same thing, and I have the same NPC waifu! It's so painful! Someone please save me!"

"I initially felt quite sympathetic, but after the last sentence, I unfollowed."

"Is the original poster dreaming?"

"It's not a dream, I've checked. Suicide usually results in losing a level, but it shouldn't happen in a dream," said the original poster, "Du Feifei."

"What happened? Do you remember how you got into the dungeon?"

"It was a brain experiment, the kind where you get paid. I thought at worst I'd see them again in three days, but I never expected that once I went in, I wouldn't be able to get out."

"Uh, does the original poster remember where they did the experiment?"

"It seems to be called Arkham Medical Center," Du Feifei replied.

'...'

'...'

"Everyone should leave now; the poster must have gone mad."

"Guys, does anyone know how to get out of cyberspace? I'm being hunted by a bunch of mind police who insist I'm an illegal digital virus and want to carry out a virtual death sentence on me. There's also a group of hooded individuals who claim I'm their experimental subject. Seriously, am I dreaming?"

"Brothers, I feel like I'm trapped in a novel right now, which is bad enough, but the problem is, I'm going to be killed by the protagonist in three chapters! What do I do? Help!"

Sisters, does anyone know how to remove the massive debuff, "collective hallucination"?

"Is anyone willing to take on a rescue mission? My city, the Mechanical City, is being infected by a biological virus. I've been captured by employees of a company called 'Venos Life Safety Group,' and they're preparing to take me away for experiments."

"Is the poster's name Alice?"

The senior engineer calmly browsed through the players' tragic experiences, occasionally grinning.

So it really has come to this stage.

As players gradually leave the "newbie phase," they begin to enter the "main storyline" of the Cyber Test Grounds.

The main theme of the Cyber Test Site is, naturally, all kinds of experiments.

The players were the test subjects.

Later, this type of "experiment" was also called the "number change task," which means that if you encounter this kind of thing, you should prepare to change your number.

Even death can't solve the problem.

Let alone players who are only level 20, even players who are level 30 or 40 would have almost no solution when faced with these 'quests' and 'dungeons'.

But in the eyes of the senior engineer, these experiments meant all sorts of professional knowledge, advanced blueprints, and even the technology of a Level 3 civilization.

This is a complete treasure trove!

In the hands of the expert engineer, the players become the keys to unlocking the treasure.

He needs to feel his way across the river with these little players!

He might be able to gather all the knowledge of more than one civilization before leaving the planet Ji Lie.

For senior engineers, both the system and the players are entities that cannot be exposed.

Therefore, he found a very good reason for his departure.

Deal with the Knights!

In fact, during the six months that Gao Gong was away, the Knights of Vengeance of the Order had caused trouble along the coast more than once.

Although they've left the beast tide and can't cause any major disturbances, terrorists can still make a big difference, no matter how small the matter is.

In the past six months, the Knights and the Hunters have clashed more than once or twice, with both sides experiencing victories and defeats.

Therefore, it makes perfect sense for the boss to take action against these villains and clear obstacles before the corporate war begins.

Another point is that, as far as I can recall, the Knights were never quiet during the Corporate Wars.

Although there are no overt actions, there are constant underhanded maneuvers.

In the cyber wave, the waves of "paleontological warfare" and "electronic brain graveyard" are absolutely inseparable from the Knights.

Furthermore, the senior engineer strongly suspects that the mastermind behind the Knights Order, the ancient artificial intelligence called "War," is a carrier of Honkai energy.

The reason is simple: if ordinary ancient artificial intelligence were to fight against the mother city, it would have been defeated long ago.

Three days later, the person who had completed the transformation bid farewell to everyone—mainly the wealthy women—and disappeared from the sight of outsiders.

"Let's work too!"

Du Zhaodi looked at Gao Yuanyuan, and Gao Yuanyuan nodded vigorously.

Perhaps because she became an information life form, she awoke earlier than the senior engineer had anticipated.

Therefore, she "witnessed" the senior engineer's obsequious, subservient, and inappropriate attitude toward Sister Rose.

This is truly, truly, truly... enviable.

So, it turns out that having money really does allow you to do whatever you want!

Gao Yuanyuan wants it too!

So she has to work hard too!

So, as the old saying goes, behind every ambitious young woman stands a pretty boy.
