Wu Yu adjusted the Gold-Rimmed Glasses and said, "I can teach you Sequence research."
"What's Sequence research?"
"It teaches you about the various Sequence abilities, so you can judge and deduce an enemy's Sequence ability and skills from their actions and behavior, then use that knowledge to defeat them."
"How long would it take to learn?"
"So far, there are over a thousand publicly known Sequence abilities, and hundreds more kept secret. Just memorizing all of them would take over a year."
"I could master it in just over a year?"
"No, that would only be enough time to memorize the abilities. The research comes after that."
"Too long. Pass, pass. Besides, that's only useful against people. It won't do me any good against Gods. If it doesn't improve my ability to hunt Gods, how am I supposed to keep all you professors supplied with materials?"
Hao Liang said, "I can teach you pharmaceutical research. It'll make you stronger, whether you're facing Gods or other Sequence Ability Users."
"That sounds good. So how long would it take to reach your level, Professor Hao?"
"Uh... I've been researching various pharmaceuticals for over twenty years. If you want to learn, you'll have to start with pharmacology..."
Qin Siyang interrupted him. "Roughly how long?"
"About five years."
"Pass, pass. I've got a whole bunch of villains trying to kill me every day. Even two or three years sounds too long. Yours takes five? By the time I'm done, the grass on my grave will probably be six feet tall. Professor Hao, I'll just keep getting pharmaceuticals directly from you."
Zhang Kuang sighed. "I can teach you research related to the Apocalypse."
"Would that improve my combat strength too?"
"No, but it would deepen your understanding of this world."
"Pass, pass. What's the point
