<h4>Chapter 1200 Problem</h4>
Han Xiao’s eyes sparkled.
While this secondary dimension might only be a phantom of the actual world, this was a treasure trove to Han Xiao. Not only could he obtain new ss abilities, he could also gather a lot more advanced technology that would be different from the current explored universe. For a Mechanic, this was the jackpot!
Han Xiao originally only nned to get some skills before returning. With a willing teacher to impart his Knowledge now, the efficiency would be twice the result with only half the effort needed.
Furthermore, this mysterious man had already undergone so many cycles. Even if his bodily condition was constantly reset, making training meaningless, his memory could still be retained. This meant that all the technology he had learned would always be in his mind. With such a terrifying background, it could only mean good things.
By the side, Kasuyi stared with wide eyes. “What about me?”
The mysterious man shot him a look before shaking his head. “You’re not a Mechanic, so there’s nothing I can teach you.” “Hey, that’s not very nice!” Kasuyi was a little aggrieved in his heart.
It was obviously I who came first, be it forming the team or leading the way, but the benefits allnded at ck Star’s feet instead. Why is that so?
The mysterious thought about it before speaking again. “If you really wish to have some technical data, it’s not as though there’s no way. Once the cycle is broken, everything here will vanish, and that includes any sort of material objects. Only information can be circted. ording to the principle of Information Forms, information that is transformed by outsiders can be retained. Since you cannot learn the Knowledge, you can use any recording machines brought from the outside to store this information...”
Hearing this, Kasuyi’s expression got a lot better. He felt that this was more like it.
Even if he was not a Mechanic, he understood the value of this technology. He could hand it to his subordinates to bolster his organization or even trade it with the Arcane Church.
At this moment, Han Xiao’s eyes narrowed, and he said, “Don’t forget that your goal is the God’s Trait Transformation. You shouldn’t bother yourself with such trivialities. Leave the matters here to me instead. If I don’t step into hell, who will?”
“You’re being shameless again” Kasuyi’s expression changed. “You want to swallow everything on your own?”
Han Xiao shot Kasuyi a nce. “When you came to me to form a team, you told me you owed me one. I haven’t asked you for anypensation yet. Monopolizing this can be considered mypensation. Besides, you’re also not a Mechanic. Why do you need this technology? At most, when we leave, I’ll give you some other form of dividends. Do you mind?” “Of course I mind! This is this, and that is that. The technology is not within the scope of our agreement.”
Kasuyi definitely would not want to give up on this treasure.
Han Xiao suddenly stroked his chin, saying meaningfully, “Are you sure you want to fight? Don’t forget, you’re in your main body now...”
Hearing this, Kasuyi’s expression slightly changed. “And besides... if the n to break the cycle fails, how are you nning to leave?” Han Xiaoughed. Kasuyi was speechless and could only helplessly wave his hand. “Fine, I’ll give up. I don’t want this technology.”
While he wanted this technology, inparison, his life was more important. Since he hade over with his main body, if he pissed ck Star off, his path of retreat would bepletely sealed. He thought for a bit before realizing that he had topromise.
However, while Kasuyi gave up fighting for the technology, he did not intend to let things be. He looked at the mysterious man and said, “My partner has a special device that can allow him to teleport without restrictions. This task in the secondary dimension is difficult, so if you don’t stop him, he can get away at any time. I suggest you only teach him a part of this technology and only give him the rest when we’re about toplete the mission.”
“Oh? There’s such a thing?” The mysterious man turned his head toward Han Xiao.
Han Xiao nced at Kasuyi, not surprised, as he calmly nodded. “That’s right. I do have such an ability, and I agree with such a way of doing things.”
Of course, he was aware of what Kasuyi was thinking. He was worried Han Xiao would abscond once he got his hands on all the data.
Han Xiao did not think that there was a problem with Kasuyi doing such a thing. If it was him, it was likely that he would have taken the same measures.
The two of them were merely temporary teammates. While they had some friendship, in the face of benefits, their rtionship was insufficient to bring unreserved trust. People at their level would not easily put hope in others.
At their realm, as long as they were not close rtives or friends, no one would easily give in when faced with their own interests.
While Han Xiao was shocked to learn about the secrets of the universe, he would not change his behavior and purpose of arriving just because of that. After all, their universe iteration was just too far away, and even if he knew about it, he could not be of help for the time being. In the end, one still had to live in the present.
No matter how lofty one was, when it came to an issue that concerned personal benefits, one had to handle them from a practical perspective. The value of such technology was amazing, so there was no reason for Han Xiao to allow Kasuyi to easily share a piece of the pie. Regardless of whether he would work together with the advanced civilizations in the future, he had to take the initiative to obtain such benefits first.
That was especially so since he was a Mechanic. He was aware of the importance of not leaking his technology, so he did not hesitate to threaten Kasuyi... If the other party did notpromise, let alone mentioning their backup escape n, he would not hesitate to attack on the spot.
As for Kasuyi’s little trick, Han Xiao thought little of it. He did not intend to only take and not give. With the technology in his hands, he would fulfill the agreement to help break the cycle. He still had his morals to some extent, and he also had to provide some insurance for Kasuyi.
While such a method would offend the other party, if both sidespromised, the rtionship could still continue.
Since they were all people with statuses, few of them were actually stubborn creatures. Negotiation of one’s interests was a norm, and even if one had a grudge, they would not really throw aside all pretenses.
The mysterious man looked a little hesitant, but he finally said, “In that case, I’ll teach you a part of the technology first. By the way, you should take advantage of this period to draft your action n. In addition, the resources of the Eye of Insight arepletely open to you. You can expand your machinery and manpower here...”.
He could not determine if Han Xiao’s teleportation ability was real or not. Since he was just an Information Form in this secondary dimension, if ck Star teleported him away, he would immediately die and achieve his freedom.
However, he knew that this proposal was tantamount to abandoning Kasuyi. Thetter would never agree to it, so they could only do a trade in private. However, he did not know if ck Star would be willing to kill off any witnesses.
He actually wished for ck Star to use his teleportation ability to move reinforcements from outside. That would be the most beneficial to him, but no one would agree to this proposal either. If ck Star wished to teleport out, Kasuyi would strongly oppose it. ck Star would also not agree to the move in order to monopolize the technology.
All three parties had their own positions, so it was difficult to reach one best decision. The final result was to have apromise that everyone could ept.
The mysterious man understood everyone’s concerns and knew that their behavior would not change even if they believed in the secrets he revealed. Thus, he did not intend to deviate from his original n.
“After speaking so much, you still haven’t told us your name,” Kasuyi said. “You can call me Jayz.” “Speaking of which, why can you keep your memories?”
“I have no idea either. I was not like this in the beginning and only awakened around a thousand cycles ago. Before that, I was just resetting repeatedly like everyone else.
At this moment, a notification popped up on Han Xiao’s interface.
The first chain mission of (A Ry Across Iterations] has beenpleted!
You have received one billion experience.
The second chain mission has been opened!
Mission Requirements: Destroy the dimensional consciousness entity, breaking the spacetime loop, and bringing relief to Jayz, hereby obtaining his legacy.
Mission Reward: 1.5 billion experience, 1 Random Reward, 1 Character Summon Card, and unlocking of the next mission.
Han Xiao scanned through and nodded.
The second chain mission has begun, and the rewards are higher... However, the technology from Jayz is my greatest reward. I estimate I’ll have to stay much longer than expected in this secondary dimension...
With a thought, Han Xiao opened up the forums to take a look. The fourth Pro League was about to start, and it seemed like he would not have the time to pay attention to it this time.
Aftering to an agreement, Han Xiao did not bother acting polite, asking Jayz to teach him some Mechanic ss skills that he did not have. He conveniently pushed the coldly snorting Kasuyi out as well. Very quickly, the sound of the interface rang.
Jayz (Lv.367) has passed on the skill [Mechanical Force-Soldier Nest). Current progress: 0.0001%
Jayz (Lv.367) has passed on the skill [Compressed Orb Innovation-Armed Body). Current progress: 0.0001%
Jayz...
Seeing therge number of notifications, Han Xiao was ted.
...
In the explored universe, somewhere in the Primeval Star River...
“I’ve finally seeded!”
In a secret machinery factory, Manison gazed at the cloud of virtual data in front of him, unable to hide his smile of satisfaction.
Ever since the Intelligent gue ended, Manison had spent most of his days in the workshop, attempting to imitate the Virtual Mutiny Virus. After slogging his guts out for so long, he had finally managed to make some progress, creating a prototype virus. While there were many functions still missing and it was far weaker than the original, Manison believed that this represented a correct direction in his research. As long as he continued to ovee all technical difficulties, he could recreate theplete Virtual Mutiny Virus sooner orter.
“ck Star, you destroyed the unique virus core, thinking that it would ruin my n, but you did not expect that I would be able to restore this technology! Hehe, in terms of technology R&D, you’re still too green!”
The corner of Manison’s mouth curled up, and he disappeared.
He carefully collected this embryonic form of the virus, making multiple encryptions for experimental data before deciding to retain this technology as his hidden trump card. However, he suddenly thought of the weird means that ck Star had used to snatch his two Felons a while ago, and his eyes once again narrowed.
“My current technology isn’t enough. I must find a way to crack the weird Virtual Technology that ck Star possesses, or I will only be restrained...”
Manison opened his research schedule, and after reviewing it, he deleted a few unimportant projects before adding the new research goal of cracking Han Xiao’s purification ability.
After finishing his work, Manison took out hismunicator, and after checking the date, he announced the time of the next regr meeting in the chat group of the Beyond Grade A Association.
“Speaking of which, ck Star and Kasuyi have not attended the past two meetings, nor can they be contacted. I’m not sure where they’ve gone...”
Every meeting, ck Star would cause trouble for him, so without the annoying voice of ck Star in the past two meetings, Manison only felt as though his body was rxed, finding his inner calm once more.
Furthermore, without ck Star taking the lead, the people in his area were all guarding themselves, so no one jumped up to make trouble. The past two meetings had gone quite smoothly, and Manison once again felt the joy of holding great authority.
While he did not know what ck Star was up to, Manison wanted ck Star to dy his return even longer. In other words...
Just don’t turn up to meetings for as long as possible!
