Exotic Humans

After testing the effectiveness of [Rapid Self-Healing].

Lin Zichen did not castrate himself to test his bold idea.

Instead, they went out to the research institute.

Let's begin a new day of learning the Blood Tempering Technique.

As soon as Lin Zichen entered the research institute, Liu Chuanwu and Song Yuyan surrounded him, asking him about the Cat Girl mission.

On Saturday night, Liu Chuanwu saw Ma Zhenhe go to see Director He, who manages the Mission System.

The two started arguing as soon as they disagreed.

In the end, they even resorted to physical violence.

The matter has escalated significantly.

The reason for such a big commotion is that the Cat Girl quest that Ma Zhenhe's daughter accepted was seriously flawed.

Cat Girl's true strength was ordinary Tier 9, but the mission description stated Ordinary Rank 6, a difference of three ranks. This almost killed Ma Zhenhe's Daughter, infuriating Ma Zhenhe, who rushed to confront Director He.

Director He also had a fiery temper. He said it was normal for the task to have errors, and he was unhappy that Ma Zhenhe out of a molehill. The argument escalated and they ended up fighting.

Afterwards, Liu Chuanwu returned to the research institute and shared this interesting story with Song Yuyan. He then learned from Song Yuyan that Lin Zichen had also taken on the Cat Girl mission and completed it, which greatly aroused their curiosity.

"Zichen, that Cat Girl's Biological Rank is as high as ordinary Tier 9, while your Biological Rank is only Ordinary Rank 6. How did you complete this mission?"

Liu Chuanwu was completely baffled.

Song Yuyan, who was standing to the side, thought about how she had previously offered to accompany Lin Zichen on a mission for free, without having to pay any Credit afterwards, but Lin Zichen had politely declined.

In response, she speculated, "Zichen, do you have some very powerful relatives who accompanied you on that Cat Girl quest, which is why you were able to kill Cat Girl with Biological Rank as high as the ordinary Tier 9?"

Faced with their curiosity, Lin Zichen told the truth, "No one helped me; I killed that Cat Girl all by myself."

"Your Biological Rank is only Ordinary Rank 6, how did you manage to solo kill an ordinary Tier 9 Cat Girl? Are you sure you're not joking?"

Liu Chuanwu looked incredulous, thinking Lin Zichen was definitely joking.

But upon closer reflection, she realized that Lin Zichen didn't seem like the type to make such a joke, and she was immediately confused.

"Did you set a trap?"

After thinking for a moment, Song Yuyan felt that if Lin Zichen wasn't joking, then he must have set a trap to use to overcome the stronger opponent.

However, Lin Zichen surprised her by saying, "No, it was a one-on-one duel the whole time. I killed her purely through physical strength."

He spoke calmly, but the two people listening were anything but calm.

Did he kill Cat Girl single-handedly using only his physical strength?

What's the meaning?

Are you hiding your true strength?

Suddenly realizing this, Liu Chuanwu asked, his breathing becoming somewhat rapid, "Zichen, you're not going to tell me that you're actually hiding your true strength, are you?"

"Yes, I've been hiding it. My true strength is actually only at the ordinary Tier 9."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zichen's eyes narrowed, and he instantly released a biological pressure as high as that of an ordinary Tier 9, causing the hair of the two people in front of him to fly.

How... how is this possible?!

Feeling the powerful pressure emanating from Lin Zichen, Liu Chuanwu and Song Yuyan were dumbfounded, staring blankly, as if they were sitting on wooden statues.

Lin Zichen's Biological Rank is actually as high as the ordinary Tier 9?!

He's just a Freshman of the semester!

This is completely unscientific!

Seeing the two people standing there stunned, Lin Zichen calmly revealed, "Actually, I had already completed my First Body Tempering back in the summer, and I'm currently undergoing my Second Skin Tempering."

In front of Liu Chuanwu and Song Yuyan, he felt there was no need to hide his progress in body tempering any longer.

After all, this is just one of many cards in the deck, and an insignificant one at that.

If revealing this trump card would be more beneficial than harmful, then it's perfectly acceptable to reveal it in exchange for gains.

After spending these days together, I've gained some understanding of Liu Chuanwu and Song Yuyan.

Lin Zichen felt that the two people were decent people and trustworthy, and believed that revealing his body tempering progress in front of them would be entirely beneficial.

Advantages: In the future, Liu Chuanwu and Song Yuyan can fully assist him in researching the Opening Acupoints technique.

The harmless aspect is that Liu Chuanwu and Song Yuyan will definitely not expose his body tempering progress to outsiders, and will ensure that only the three people in the research institute know about it.

In short, today's showdown is the result of Lin Zichen's careful consideration over the weekend.

"First Body Tempering has been successful?!"

Hearing Lin Zichen's words, Liu Chuanwu was completely stunned.

After a moment's realization, he became excited and burst into laughter, exclaiming, "Haha, heaven rewards those who persevere! Heaven rewards those who persevere!"

"My years of perseverance, Liu Chuanwu, have finally paid off!"

"Zichen, with you here, the Pure-Blood Human Path will surely achieve great success. At that time, your name, and the name of the Heavenly Human Pavilion, will surely shock the world!"

At this moment, Liu Chuanwu felt as if he were dreaming.

Pure-Blood Human Path, but his research led to the decline of his family and the separation of his wife and children, and he still had not made any significant progress.

Finally, on this day many years later, they encountered an unparalleled genius who was perfectly suited to the Blood Tempering Art!

With such a peerless genius paving the way, Pure-Blood Human Path will surely shine brightly on Earth and become humanity's most powerful weapon for saving the world!

This is the truth: Heaven Rewards Diligence!

After calming down for a moment...

Liu Chuanwu looked at Lin Zichen with a big smile and said, "Zichen, your Physical Talent is really too exaggerated. If it weren't for the fact that you don't have any Source Power in your body, I would suspect that you are Exotic Human from the Origin Land."

"The Exotic Human from the Origin Land?"

Lin Zichen felt like he had heard some incredible information.

Liu Chuanwu explained, "Since there are Exotic Beast in this world, there must also be Exotic Human. It's just that Exotic Human are usually in the Origin Land, not on Earth, so we can't encounter them at all."

"Ah?"

Song Yuyan, standing to the side, asked in surprise, "Are there really Exotic Human?"

Although she had been a member of the Heavenly Human Pavilion for ten years, Liu Chuanwu had never mentioned this to her.

For a moment, she felt that she was being treated differently. Lin Zichen told her about this as soon as he arrived, while she had been in the research institute for ten years and he hadn't told her. It was really unfair!

"Dean, what is Source Power?"

Lin Zichen grasped the key words and was filled with curiosity about them.

Liu Chuanwu stroked his beard and replied, "Source Power is a unique form of energy possessed by creatures from the Origin Land, similar to qi, blood, and spirit."

Similar to Qi, blood, and spirit?

Lin Zichen then asked, "How can the Source Power be used, and what are its specific effects?"

Liu Chuanwu said, "Regarding this, I'm not entirely sure how to answer it right now. After all, in all my years of life, I've only ever encountered two Exotic Human."

Song Yuyan asked with some doubt, "Dean, where did you meet this Exotic Human? Your Biological Rank is stuck at the ordinary Tier 9, so you can't enter the Origin Land at all."

"Sister Yan, what are the requirements for entering the Origin Land?"

"Yes, the standard set by the higher-ups is that in order to enter the Origin Land, the Biological Rank must be at Advanced; otherwise, everyone who goes in will be cannon fodder."

"I see."

Lin Zichen nodded, having gained another piece of new knowledge.

Song Yuyan looked at Liu Chuanwu and urged, "Dean, you haven't told us where you met the Exotic Human yet."

Liu Chuanwu replied, "I met them both on Earth. One was a female apprentice my ex-wife took in ten years ago, and the other was in a mysterious ancient Ruins, the very ancient Ruins where the Blood Tempering Technique was discovered."

"Found it in the Ruins?" Song Yuyan raised an eyebrow and said, "It wasn't a corpse lying dead in a coffin, was it?"

"He was indeed lying in a coffin."

After saying that, Liu Chuanwu solemnly instructed the two of them, "The secrets I've told you today must not be divulged. You must keep them a secret, understand?"

Song Yuyan patted her ample chest and assured her, "Don't worry, Dean, I'm very tight-lipped. I've never revealed a single secret."

"Yes, I believe you."

Liu Chuanwu nodded, looked at Lin Zichen, and said with an even more solemn expression, "Zichen, regarding your strength, at this stage, you must not exaggerate it too much or exceed the understanding of the world, otherwise you will definitely be targeted by Heretic Cult and attract unnecessary danger."

"It's just as dangerous even at school."

"These days, Heretic Cult are everywhere; no one can say for sure whether there are Heretic Cult among the higher echelons of humanity."

Liu Chuanwu then gave an example. "More than forty years ago, there was a Vice Principal of Capital University whose true identity was Heretic Cult. When he led a team into the Origin Land, he plotted to kill everyone in the team, almost causing Capital University to collapse. It took almost ten years to recover."

Song Yuyan was somewhat surprised. "I'm a native of Capital City, and I didn't even know such a big thing happened at Capital University."

"It's normal that you don't know. This matter was suppressed very tightly back then. Without information channels, it would be impossible to find out."

After saying that, Liu Chuanwu looked at Lin Zichen again and suggested to him, "Zichen, if you want to take on missions that match your abilities to earn Credit in the future, use your Sister Yan's account."

"Your Sister Yan's Biological Rank is the same as yours, ordinary Tier 9. Use her account to accept missions, and you can fully unleash your strength during missions without worrying about your abilities being exposed."

"When you, as Pure-Blood Human Path, break through the shackles of the ordinary level and evolve into Advanced Being, I will find you a powerful backer to protect you. Then you can show your full potential and make a name for yourself."

Lin Zichen: "Okay, I understand."

Song Yuyan asked curiously, "Dean, you've mentioned this backer many times. Just who is this person?"

Liu Chuanwu: "It's not convenient to talk about this now. You'll naturally find out when Zichen breaks through the shackles of the ordinary level with his Pure-Blood Human body."

After listening to their conversation, Lin Zichen looked at Liu Chuanwu and said, "Dean, do you have any information related to the Origin Land? I'd like to learn more about it."

Whether it's Exotic Beast, Exotic Human, or Heretic Cult, they are all inextricably linked to their Origin Land.

This filled him with curiosity about the Origin Land.

Liu Chuanwu shook his head. "I don't have any information on that. Everything about the Origin Land has always been classified."

"My current understanding of the Origin Land is basically based on what I learned from my ex-wife and some records found in the Ruins."

"However, you don't need to rush to learn about it. Before your Biological Rank evolves to Advanced, there's no point in knowing more about the Origin Land."

"Because you can't enter the Origin Land, all the knowledge you have about it is completely useless."

"For now, you only need to know this much: to us, the vast majority of creatures in the Origin Land are enemies. These enemies have been trying to invade Earth. As for why they want to invade Earth, some powerful figures speculate that it's because Earth has something that these creatures from the Origin Land want."

Just as Liu Chuanwu finished saying that last sentence, his cell phone rang.

As soon as the call connected, a woman's voice, still charming and alluring, came through.

He sounds like he's in his early forties.

Liu Chuanwu walked to the side and chatted with the woman on the phone, laughing and talking.

After a short conversation, she hung up the phone and told Lin Zichen and Song Yuyan, "An old flame of many years invited me to her house for dinner, so I won't stay at the research institute any longer. Contact me on WeChat if needed."

After saying that, he hurriedly left the research institute.

"The Dean is really working hard; he's gone to help Heavenly Human Pavilion attract investment again."

Watching Liu Chuanwu's hurried departure, Song Yuyan couldn't help but sigh.

Lin Zichen didn't express any particular emotion. He silently walked to the sofa in front and sat down, lost in thought.

Exotic Beast, Exotic Human, Heretic Cult, Source Power...

All of these elements are inextricably linked to their Origin Land.

What exactly is the Origin Land?
