<Talented scientist Li Wei: May God bless Tony Stark!>
<Li Wei: I will deploy Future Technology Company's latest technology to help the military find Tony Stark!>
<The military issued a statement saying that they did not currently need assistance from other companies. The military had the finest technology.>
"They moved pretty fast."
Li Wei sat in his office, drinking the coffee Gwen had made while watching the news spread everywhere.
With the internet becoming increasingly developed, news was placing more and more emphasis on timeliness.
Even a second too late, and the news might no longer be new enough.
The entire morning, Li Wei did not go anywhere. He played computer games while watching his Reputation Points.
It had to be said, Tony Stark's popularity was absolutely exploding right now.
After all, no one had ever gone through something like this before.
The US Military was the most worried, because Tony Stark had been abducted while under its protection.
What would all those other wealthy people think of the US Military's capabilities?
The most obvious example was Stark Industries' stock.
It had hit the daily limit down directly.
Everyone knew how important Tony Stark was to Stark Industries.
Nearly all of its famous products had come from Tony Stark's genius-like ideas.
So this did not come as a surprise.
However, Red Queen had not made a move yet. It was not the right time.
As long as Tony Stark had not returned, the stock would not rise.
Near noon, Li Wei felt delighted.
[Reputation Points: 100 million...]
It had broken one hundred million.
He immediately opened the system store. He had long had his eye on something good.
[Unknown Metal Technology: Can grant the user telepathic abilities. Its strength is determined by the user's mental attributes.]
Li Wei's mental attributes were very strong.
Because he was a transmigrator.
Compared with other items at the same price, such as brain-enhancing pills, this was more straightforward.
As for things like the Super Soldier Serum...
Honestly, Li Wei did not think much of it.
This was telepathy!
If it was strong enough, it could reach Omega Level.
Just like some old bald guy had said: the most powerful force in this world was the mind. As long as you wanted it, nothing was impossible!
Furthermore, with telepathy, Li Wei would have stronger means of protecting himself.
So there was nothing more to say. He bought it directly.
The only downside of this thing was that it depended on luck. Its telepathic strength was determined by one's mental attributes.
Perhaps that was why it only cost one hundred million.
If it were guaranteed to reach Omega Level, who knew how many more zeroes would have to be added to the price.
[Purchase successful!] [Because the host has spent over 100 million, the system will now upgrade. After upgrading, it will become Version 2.0. Please look forward to it!] [Upgrade successful. System Version 2.0 has added a check-in feature, and the lottery has changed.]
Li Wei had not expected the system to upgrade.
So he immediately opened the check-in feature.
[Check-in: Check in every day. Consecutive check-ins for seven days, thirty days, and so on will earn greater rewards.]
"Check-in."
Li Wei's eyes lit up. Now this felt more interactive.
[Check-in successful. Reward obtained: 100 Reputation Points.]
"A drop in the bucket..."
Li Wei tugged at the corner of his mouth, but it was better than nothing. It was basically free.
But when he opened the lottery section, he nearly spat blood.
[The lottery has changed. It is now easier to obtain better items. One lottery draw costs 1 million Reputation Points. A ten-draw costs 10 million, and ten-draws are guaranteed to receive a minimum reward!]
"I wonder how much the odds have improved. Can someone as unlucky as me even feel the difference?"
Li Wei shook his head, not expecting much.
Refocusing, he took out what he had purchased.
It was a metal sphere, floating directly above Li Wei's hand.
[Use?]
The prompt floated before him, and Li Wei naturally could not wait.
"Use it."
The metal sphere opened directly, and a wave of psychic power struck Li Wei.
"Argh!"
He only felt a pain between his brows, as though his head were being torn apart.
Damn it!
Wasn't it supposed to be that the rich relied on technology while the poor relied on mutation?
Why was his technology even more painful than mutation?
In just that short moment, he was already drenched in sweat.
"Master!"
2B and Eve hurried over, both at a loss.
Eve was the one who said, "I'll massage Master."
She came behind Li Wei and had him lean against her softness as she gently pressed the space between his brows.
It actually seemed to work. Li Wei's tightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed.
Eve sighed in relief at the sight.
After a while, Li Wei opened his eyes.
"I'm fine now, Eve."
Li Wei held her hand and instantly felt that his thoughts were incomparably clear and that he was full of energy.
Was this telepathy?
He looked at the mouse on the desk, and it floated into the air.
Telepathy possessed a certain telekinetic effect, along with mental manipulation, mind control, and various other abilities.
Especially when it came to finding people...
Li Wei really could find Tony Stark now.
So he gave it a try.
2B was an empty-headed robot, so he could not control her...
But Eve was different. She truly had thoughts and a mind. Li Wei could sense her inner thoughts—she was worried about him.
"Thank you, Eve."
Li Wei said.
"It's good that you're all right, Master. If something happened to you, I wouldn't know what to do."
Eve said gently.
Li Wei did not want to move as he leaned against her, so he told Gwen to get two portions of food from the cafeteria.
Future Technology Company's food was quite good. Naturally, he would not shortchange the veterans in that regard.
So he often ate lunch at the company.
Soon, Gwen knocked on the door.
Li Wei's telepathy could clearly sense her and even slip into her mind.
What is the boss doing in there?
That was what Gwen was wondering.
As 2B opened the door, he immediately withdrew his telepathy.
Having gained a superpower, Li Wei felt like he could not quite control himself. He simply wanted to use it.
Especially the feeling of knowing what others were thinking. It was far too satisfying, giving him the sense that he controlled everything.
For example, Li Wei now said, "Go to school this afternoon. I'll go to the shelter myself."
"Uh..."
Gwen looked at Li Wei in surprise.
She had only thought it. She had not said it out loud!
"Stop standing there. Bring the food over. I'm starving."
"Oh, okay."
Gwen absentmindedly brought the food over. Eve also smiled and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Gwen smiled too, but inside, her curiosity was already running wild.
What exactly is the relationship between the boss and Eve?
As the thoughts in her mind became increasingly inappropriate, Li Wei could not help coughing twice, startling Gwen awake.
"I'll head out first, Boss."
Gwen hurriedly fled.
How was this girl even dirtier-minded than him?
Though it was normal. Li Wei was a man of action. He only did things and never let his imagination run wild...
After lunch, Li Wei stood by the window and began extending his psychic power outward.
For a moment, it felt as though the noise of the entire world had exploded inside his mind.
