"This flag they've set... it seems a bit like a knife to the heart."
Su Wen scratched his head, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.
Yes!
Even if victory is achieved in the future, one would likely not know how many times one has traveled through time and space.
The number of timelines that are created and Destruction under one's own control would probably be astonishing.
Having this kind of experience can be a bit tiring.
So, after the victory, helping the Theater God master spread opera culture is actually a good thing.
But the envisioned future was too good, and the way the Sub-Space-Time spoke always gave him the feeling that it was forcibly setting a flag.
"Master, you're overthinking it."
Sycee spoke up, "Wealth Source can disrupt spacetime and break the boundary between Yin and Yang. Therefore, from the moment you, the autonomous being, awakened, it was destined that the human camp would win the final victory."
Su Wen shook his head slightly and said, "I hope I'm just overthinking it!"
He then looked at the Wealth Disrupts Space-Time interface and found that his counterpart in the Sub-Space-Time had vanished after saying her last few words.
[ In the Main Space-Time, I haven't seen that sarcastic, deadpan Narrator for many years; I actually miss him.]
[If I'm not mistaken, what I'm about to say is being relayed to you by that dead Narrator, right?]
[Actually, I did consider the identity of the deceased Narrator. The Wealth Disrupts Space-Time will activate, and the deceased Narrator will only appear after you arrive in the future Sub-Space-Time.]
[Given River of Space-Time's inherently business-minded nature, the other party is highly likely to be someone from River of Space-Time's organization.]
[Of course, there's another possibility: this death Narrator might be a product derived from the complete God of Wealth. You can explore its implications yourself.]
[That shameless, heartless, and foolish God of Wealth, a troublemaker across time and space! After receiving a wealth of information from your future self, you fall into deep thought.]
[After a moment of silence, you look at the headquarters of the Martial Dao General Journal and begin having Du Guowei collect what he considers the most useful and essential Martial Dao theories from the past twenty years.]
[Du Guowei had anticipated your decision.]
[At your prompting, the powerful Wealth Spirit, Wealth Ghost, and Cai Meng, like emotionless laborers, listened to Du Guowei's words and began searching for various materials at the Martial Dao General Journal headquarters.]
[Du Guowei picked up one of his own books, "Imaginings on Martial Dao Types," and began explaining it to you while flipping through the pages.]
Listening to Du Guowei's explanation, you feel like you're back in high school.
[But for the future of the nation and humanity, you have no choice but to strive diligently in your studies.]
[If you learn it, it means that Huaxia will learn it in the next timeline.]
[While helping with the work, the Wealth Spirit, the Wealth Ghost, and the Cai Meng began contacting their friends who were good at Wealth Dao.]
[A riot has broken out on the Mountain and Sea Main Battlefield. The return of the God of Wealth may have already been discovered by the otherworldly beings, so there's no need to continue doing it secretly any longer.]
[Most importantly, some of the information, rare materials, and specifications that Du Guowei asked them to collect were too outdated and difficult to find, so they wanted to bring in another group of people to help with the search.]
Friends should share both good times and bad!
[Through Du Guowei's explanation, you have gained a deeper understanding of "Imaginings on Martial Dao Types"...]
[...]
Looking at the series of learning information below, Su Wen knew that his future self was about to begin a heavy and arduous academic journey.
And as Second Rank God of Wealth and Third Rank martial artist, he could easily multitask.
As for the obviously vengeful words following the dead Narrator, he simply chose to ignore them.
I'm still just a newbie, only Second Rank God of Wealth. What's the point of thinking so much?
So, after keeping a sliver of his attention focused on the Wealth Disrupts Space-Time, he didn't linger in the God of Wealth's office.
"Master of Theater God, who should I contact if I need to get something done?"
Su Wen looked at the Theater God and asked.
"Do you see that red phone over there?"
The Theater God was instructing Mo Xiao Su Arrow Realm the matter at hand. Without turning his head, he said directly, "No need to enter the number. Just pick it up and tell me your business."
"Then someone will handle it for you. Of course, if it's a question about the Heavenly Mandate Bearer, they'll transfer you to the Special Operations Squad Management Center."
"Once the Special Operations Management Center connects you, state your identity and then explain your problem."
Su Wen nodded slightly and said, "I understand."
After saying that, he picked up the red phone.
"Hello."
"What are your instructions, sir?"
"There's someone very important, an undergraduate student at Imperial Capital Normal University named Du Guowei. Could you bring him over for me? I need to speak with him."
"Yes!"
"Oh, right, there's one more thing."
Su Wen said again, "I need a large building in Imperial Capital. How long will it take you to resolve that?"
The person on the other end of the phone asked gravely, "Sir, are you in a hurry?"
"It's not a rush, but we'll do it as quickly as possible."
"Yes, sir! Mission accomplished!"
Okay, that's all.
Goodbye, Commander!
After hanging up the phone, Su Wen lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought.
After a long pause, he asked, "Master of Theater God, do we all have military ranks on our uniforms? If so, what level are they?"
Upon hearing this, the Theater God stopped his explanation, looked at Su Wen, pointed to the building in the sky, and asked softly, "God of Wealth, when you went to see the Wealth Spirit, you should have seen quite a few soldiers, right?"
"Yes."
"Do you know what the saying is that's circulating inside this building?"
"What?"
"The one wearing the mask, the major general, start!"
"..."
Su Wen was taken aback, then asked, "So, you mean I'm a major general now?"
When he first awakened to his Heavenly Mandate Bearer, Li Wenze told him that he would have a permanent position and start with the salary of a deputy section chief.
But he never expected that his military rank would already be that of a major general.
"I'm talking about the minimum, but the body-strengthening methods you produce are of great help to the country."
The Theater God spoke up, saying, "Internally, it can rapidly elevate the army's combat capabilities."
"Selling these products abroad can also bring in a large amount of technology and high-precision equipment that the country needs."
The Theater God paused for a moment, then said, "But for us, rank and such are not important."
"What about a major general? What about a lieutenant general?"
"In the not-too-distant future, those God-Prefixed Heavenly Mandate Bearer will stand at the forefront of the battlefield, protecting the nation from harm."
Therefore, improving one's own strength and rank is the most important thing.
Beside her, Mo Xiao Su raised her hand and asked, "Grandpa Theater God, will Xiao Su wear a mask?"
The Theater God patted Mo Xiao Su's head and said with a smile, "Does Xiao Su want to wear a mask?"
"I want to! Once I wear it, I'll be a general!"
"Then Xiao Su needs to calm down and listen to me finish explaining the training, and then prepare properly for the training."
"Has Xiao Su become a general through the trials of the Arrow Realm?"
"Yes!"
"..."
Meanwhile, Imperial Capital Normal University.
Du Guowei, who was dozing off in class, suddenly nodded and woke up with a start.
"Why is it that you suddenly have a heart attack?"
Am I sick?
"Hmm... I'll check online. Even if I'm sick, it probably isn't anything serious."
