Purple Light Dew and the T-Virus (Seeking Favorites)

"Mall? Teacher?" Lin Ke's words left Linley stunned. "Brother Lin, do you know other powerful mages?"

Linley's expression was somewhat excited, but inside the System Space, Lin Ke shook his head with a smile. "Your teacher should be coming to see you very soon. Remember, without my permission, do not reveal my existence to anyone."

Lin Ke did not explain clearly, and just as Linley was about to press for more, his vision blurred.

The next moment, an amiable old man with white hair and beard, dressed in a moon-white mage robe, appeared before Linley.

The amiable old man spoke with a smile: "Little fellow, hello. My name is Doering Cowart, a Saint-level Magus of the Puang Empire."

Linley's eyes widened as he looked at the amiable old man who had suddenly appeared before him. "You, you are a Saint-level Magus? No, you're a liar. The Puang Empire was destroyed over five thousand years ago. You're trying to trick me."

Inside the System Space, Lin Ke watched Doering Cowart through the first-person perspective of Linley on the screen, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

In the original work, the death of Doering Cowart was the greatest regret of Linley's life, and also the regret of every fan of the Coiling Dragon World.

But now that Lin Ke was in the Coiling Dragon World himself, he dared not let Linley reveal his existence just yet.

Although he was now a system, a Saint-level expert like Doering Cowart, who was left with only a soul, could not do anything to him.

Even beyond Doering Cowart, not even a Chief Sovereign or a Supreme God could do anything to him.

However, this did not mean that the current Linley was invincible.

Linley and Doering Cowart had only just met and did not yet share the deep bond they would have in the future.

Do not be fooled by how well Doering Cowart treated Linley in the original story.

One must not forget that Doering Cowart himself was a Saint-level powerhouse who had experienced countless deceptions throughout his life.

What if, after learning of his existence, Doering Cowart decided to kill Linley to facilitate his own resurrection?

It was better to wait until the relationship between Linley and Doering Cowart was deeper before making further plans.

Shaking his head, Lin Ke cast these thoughts from his mind.

"Now, the first priority is to customize a System Panel for Linley." Lin Ke rubbed his chin with his right hand. "The panel should be simple. Linley is a native; if it's too complex, he might find it hard to understand."

Lin Ke closed the view of Linley's perspective, and a 3D projection of Linley appeared before the television screen.

"As a system, I can quantify things like physical constitution." Lin Ke rose from the sofa and paced back and forth. "Taking the constitution of a normal adult as 1 point, a first-rank warrior would be 5 points."

Thinking of this, Lin Ke waved his hand, and attribute information regarding Linley began to appear next to the projection.

Name: Linley Baruch

Age: 8

Energy Points: 10 (White)

Constitution: 0.91

Mental Strength: 1

Battle Qi: 0

Magic Power: 0

Attribute Affinity: Earth Element (Super), Wind Element (Super), Destruction (Superior), Fire Element (Medium), Water Element (Super, Hidden)

Law Comprehension: None

Battle Qi Manual: None

"Not bad!" Looking at the attribute panel he had set up, Lin Ke nodded slightly. "Next is designing the mall."

Lin Ke waved his hand, closing Linley's panel.

The system had been damaged previously; aside from the ability to create all things, all other information had been lost.

Otherwise, Lin Ke would not have needed to edit these himself.

"First, the daily necessities." Lin Ke sat back down on the sofa. "Linley will need these when he goes to the Magical Beast Forest or enters the Higher Plane later."

As he pondered, Lin Ke waved his hand, creating various items within the System Space.

From clothes and shoes to various foods, firearms, and props...

Lin Ke did not need to consume energy points to create items within the space, but if they were to leave the System Space, they would require energy points to exist.

"A set of clothes costs about 0.1 energy points to create in the outside world; I'll charge Linley 1 energy point."

"A cup of instant noodles actually costs 0.2 energy points? Then I'll charge 2 points."

"A pistol actually costs 100 points? A fourth-rank warrior could dodge this, right? The return on thermal weapons isn't high."

"..."

After spending quite some time, Lin Ke finished testing all the items he could think of.

Immediately, Lin Ke waved his hand, and all the items in the System Space vanished.

"Cold weapons and thermal weapons from my previous life are too useless in the Coiling Dragon World, so I won't consider them."

Shaking his head, Lin Ke looked forward, where a 3x3 grid mall appeared.

Clothing: 1 White Energy Point

Instant noodles: 2 White Energy Points

Roast duck: 3 White Energy Points

"Living supplies are sorted." Lin Ke looked at the Mall Panel he had designed and nodded slightly. "Now, it's time for the items related to strength."

This time, Lin Ke wasn't as casual as before; he fell into deep thought.

"What Linley needs most right now is to improve his physical fitness and strengthen his spiritual energy." Lin Ke leaned back against the sofa. "Right, and activating the Azure Dragon Blood within his body."

While Lin Ke was still creating the mall.

Outside, in Linley's bedroom.

"Grandpa Doering." Linley's eyes shone as he looked at the empty space in front of him. "Are you really a Saint-level magus? Can you really teach me magic?"

"Hahaha, of course." Doering Cowart stroked his beard and laughed. "However, magic isn't that simple. First, I need to test your magic affinity and spiritual energy."

They say there is great terror between life and death.

Doering Cowart had already died once, so he had grown indifferent to many things.

Back then, he had no children and lived a solitary life, eventually dying at the hands of an old rival.

Now, seeing this clever little fellow Linley, Doering Cowart's heart, which had been silent for thousands of years, was stirred.

If he hadn't walked the path of cultivation back then, would he have had such a cute grandson in his old age?

Doering Cowart had no answer, but as of now, he liked Linley very much.

"Test?" Linley looked at Doering Cowart in confusion. "Grandpa Doering, what needs to be tested? Can we start now?"

"Of course." Doering Cowart looked at the impatient Linley, his face full of smiles. "Linley, so-called magic talent testing is divided into two aspects: affinity with the elements of heaven and earth, and spiritual energy..."

Doering Cowart began to provide Linley with a basic education on magic.

Meanwhile, inside the System Space.

"Finally finished."

Lin Ke looked at the two floating droplets of liquid—one purple and one green—with a smile, then shook his head helplessly.

"The Beggar Version Purple Light Dew and the Upgraded Beggar Version T-Virus. It's a pity that the price of the complete T-Virus, with the mutation effects removed, is too high. Linley can't afford to exchange for it right now. Otherwise, a single dose of T-Virus would be enough to improve both his physical fitness and spiritual energy at the same time."

Lin Ke waved his hand, and the Mall Panel appeared once again.

However, this time, the Mall Panel was divided into two distinct interfaces: living and combat.

On the combat interface, the Purple Light Dew and the T-Virus that Lin Ke had just created appeared side by side.

Purple Light Dew: 10 White Energy Points

T-Virus: 10 White Energy Points
