Song Xiaozhu understood the meaning behind his words.

She also understood why he was so convinced that she couldn't be an ordinary "Craftsman".

As the daughter of a chaebol, she was implanted with Awakening Stone from birth.

Sixteen years old is probably not too early -- Song Xiaozhu remembered that Fan Cang was not very old either.

As for the misfortunes she encountered...

Families torn apart, Clouds lost, falling from grace, homelessness, humiliation...

Yes, this change is truly as big as it could possibly be.

Song Xiaozhu was still somewhat puzzled. "Before I lost my memory, I must have already experienced some kind of upheaval, um... why didn't I awaken?"

Bai Jing: "Because you have amnesia."

Song Xiaozhu: "?"

Bai Jing was definitely not a good teacher; with that kind of patience, he couldn't possibly teach students. He said irritably, "Amnesia is the body's self-protection mechanism."

Song Xiaozhu pondered, "Hmm, because the change was too great, it triggered an instinctive protective mechanism, preventing me from gaining enlightenment. Is that what you mean?"

Bai Jing: "Mm."

Song Xiaozhu roughly sorted things out and understood the logic behind it.

She is definitely not Li Siyuan. She has her own memories, while the Li Siyuan of this world couldn't withstand that tragedy and collapsed at the foot of the Garbage Mountain.

Song Xiaozhu did not acquire the Synthesizer after Shang Bao's invasion, but rather some time earlier.

When she accepted the fact that she had traveled through time, when she realized she was in a terrible world and would never see her family again...

A notification sound appeared.

"So what exactly is my profession?" Song Xiaozhu asked Bai Jing.

Bai Jing: "Tell me in detail what you can do."

Song Xiaozhu still concealed the concept of the Synthesizer. Regardless of whether it was related to Li Siyuan or the Han-Tang Technology behind her, she didn't want to reveal it.

If it is truly related to Li Siyuan, then it is highly likely that this is a special "Awakening Stone" that Li Shihai has painstakingly developed, and exposing it will only bring unnecessary trouble.

Even out of concern for Bai Jing's safety, Song Xiaozhu would keep this matter to herself.

"I can make a lot of tools, like hoes, axes, pickaxes, and skinning knives..." Song Xiaozhu said it easily. All she had to do was replace "synthesize" with "make," as the two concepts are very similar. That's why Qiu Shuyu mistook her for a "Craftsman."

Song Xiaozhu specifically mentioned the quality of the axes, describing them as first-class, second-class, and third-class, and also mentioned that she had already sold them at the logging camp...

Bai Jing retorted, "You're quite something."

This sounds just like "You're quite clever."

This is not praise, it's all sarcasm.

Song Xiaozhu pretended not to hear and continued her introduction. Her thinking was very clear: she would start with the recipe book for the Level 2 Synthesizer. Those categories temporarily covered all the items she could "make".

After omitting the basic Raw Material and customization options, Song Xiaozhu explained in detail, "Besides tools, there are weapons and armor. I guess my abilities aren't quite there yet, as I haven't been able to successfully create any finished products. In addition, there are some rather strange things, like food and water—not cooking skills, but Raw Food Material and cleaner water, and then there are medicines..."

When Bai Jing heard her mention food and water, her expression suddenly turned serious, especially the mention of clean water...

Song Xiaozhu noticed this as well, so when she mentioned the medicine, she deliberately slowed down and stared at Bai Jing's expression.

Bai Jing suddenly stood up. "You... can make medicine?!"

His voice, unlike his usual aged and deep one, was unusually clear and youthful; even his hunched back seemed to straighten up.

Song Xiaozhu blinked, and upon closer inspection, Bai Jing still looked old and frail...

It must be an illusion.

How could Bai Jing of her age suddenly become so young?

Bai Jing had been staring at her intently, so Song Xiaozhu didn't delay and continued, "Well, I can make two kinds of medicine now: anti-inflammatory tablets and hemostatic powder..."

Bai Jing: "Where did you put it? Let me see."

Song Xiaozhu put the medicine in a small box, but after considering it for a while, she still revealed the existence of the small box.

This is very important. She will definitely use it on a large scale after the small box continues to be upgraded, and then we will have to explain it.

Since "Spatial Master" exist, there is a high probability that they have corresponding products, just like the "Divine Axe" is to the "Logger".

Song Xiaozhu summoned the Workbench and took out anti-inflammatory pills and hemostatic powder from the small box. To Bai Jing's eyes, this scene was just a cloud of white mist rising from her palm, and then two objects appeared out of thin air.

"Telekinesis? The ability of a ' Spatial Master '?"

Song Xiaozhu shook her head and said, "It's not telekinesis, I made a... um, a space box."

Her Bai Jing eyebrows arched, unable to hide her surprise.

Song Xiaozhu had been observing closely. From Bai Jing's expression, it was clear that he was more shocked by the power of her awakened profession than by disbelief.

Clearly, this was within his comprehension.

Song Xiaozhu added another layer of explanation, "This spatial box is invisible; it's just a cloud of white mist, like something formed from the Force. I can't give it to anyone else to use."

Bai Jing nodded. "To fully create an item of this level, a large amount of Force is required. You are still too weak. Severing so much Force will damage your very foundation."

Song Xiaozhu thought about it for a moment, and it made a lot of sense.

Although she never believed she possessed the Force, the Synthesizer strictly controlled the crafting level of items—admittedly related to the Synthesizer's damage—but from another perspective, wasn't it also a form of protection for her...?

Wait, Song Xiaozhu suddenly remembered...

Damaged!

To be repaired!

This Synthesizer is definitely not something an ordinary Awakened could achieve enlightenment through sudden enlightenment!

Song Xiaozhu suppressed the turmoil in her heart. She wouldn't say these things out loud, and there was no one to discuss them with. She could only figure it out slowly on her own.

Bai Jing didn't notice the change in her expression. He only lowered his gaze to the pills and powder in his hand... He was focused, as if everything around him was gradually fading away, leaving only these two Xiaoxiao doses of medicine.
