Chen Jing had gone to bed early the night before, for Azathoth's presence made sleep a constant pleasure. Odin had come to pick them up last night, but only brought Loki and Brenhildr, leaving Fenrir behind. Odin had also promised to bring Fenrir's two sisters next time, and had told Chen Jing to prepare food, lest a starving Jörmungandr might bite. In the end, neither of them had seen each other, as Odin had run away so quickly. Fenrir explained that Loki's sleeplessness was probably due to his inability to see him.

The one who came to fetch Azathoth wasn't the Lord of Tindalos, but Yog-Sothoth, the One of All. Bubble's human form was a bespectacled woman, and the helpless look on her face was likely due to coercion.

Anyway, although Bubble looked reluctant, he still carried Azathoth and Baozhenjiang in each hand and left. Before leaving, he gave Chen Jing a box of knowledge in return. After testing, it was found that all the information was from the mysterious side, a kind of strange materials science and runes.

RT5 said seriously, "This is a combination that we completely cannot understand. It seems chaotic, but there is a certain order."

"Feels like Azathoth?"

"She has similar characteristics, namely, superficially conforming to the rules of reality, yet fraught with uncertainty. She is an evil god whose chaos and order are both at their peak."

"Then can it be used?" Chen Jing cared more about the practicality of the reward.

"Absolutely. It's very effective, and it also has a built-in Chaos enchantment." She paused. "It's just quite harmful to the body, and many users have expressed discomfort."

"That's normal. Chaos is lethal to orderly creatures, even if they're one of our own." Chen Jing didn't really care. "Even a slight degree of chaos wouldn't have any impact on an omnic. The key is if it's used to its advantage."

"If it works, I think you could try the rune set above," Jasmine suggested.

RT5 nodded, then looked at Eliza, who had been quite absent-minded lately. Eliza was taken aback when RT5 patted her shoulder.

"Does our current behavior count as an attack on Lih's occupied territory?" Eliza seemed a little worried.

Without the support of those evil gods, Chen Jing would be lying if he said he wasn't panicking. But he knew he couldn't show any fear. Besides, as long as Li He couldn't kill him instantly, his side would have a great chance of turning the tables. With some sacrifice, Chen Jing could easily invite Odin and his family over.

Even if the King of Lihe came in person, Chen Jing was confident that he could beat her to death. But if she was killed instantly, there was nothing he could do.

What's more, Chen Jing himself has no combat capability at the moment, and at best he can cheer for the intelligent machines.

"..." Chen Jing suddenly realized that he seemed to have done nothing that a normal admiral would do these days.

"Normal?" Eliza was stunned. "Look at your base, then look at others. How dare you say you're normal? Even the most shameless person can't be as exaggerated as you."

But the work I do is more dangerous than theirs. Chen Jing looked as if he had been wronged.

RT5 squinted at him and said, "Go ahead and embarrass yourself."

"So what would a normal admiral be doing at this time?" Chen Jing was quite curious.

RT5 curled his lips and said, "It's just about getting in touch with the local wealthy people to determine their own financial situation, and then preparing for potential banditry or something."

"But you're still on the road."

Chen Jing smiled bitterly. "I see. It's different." He looked at RT5. "Then is there anything I can help you with?"

"No." RT5 shook his head. "Just sit back and relax. Even if there were a thousand of you, you wouldn't be much help."

Chen Jing sighed: "Are there any entertainment facilities?"

“There’s a gym.”

"...Do I look like someone who exercises regularly?"

“There’s a restaurant.”

“Do you cook with motor oil?”

RT5 frowned. "No, you're being biased. It's clearly about boiling alloy."

Chen Jing's face turned pale.

RT5 finally adjusted his hair and asked, "Do you want to play games?"

"What game?" Chen Jing was a little curious.

RT5 pointed at his feet and said, "It's a command simulator for training." It is mainly used to improve the proficiency of the useless admiral.

"There's also a combat training game." It's also used to improve the useless admiral's physical fitness.

Chen Jingtian: "Great! Why didn't you tell me about this great thing in the first place?"

"Haven't you used them in the training camp? These two are common in training institutions."

Chen Jing was stunned: "I forgot."

Eliza covered her face with her hands and said, "Looks like we have to increase our efforts." Her face was determined.

Chen Jing then realized what he had done: "Qiaodou Madai! Listen to my explanation!"

It's euphemistically called a combat training game, but in reality, it's a virtual training ground for connecting to the nervous system. Eliza stood still on the other side of the concrete floor. "Chen Jing, how much do you remember?"

Chen Jing thought about it and decided to report truthfully: "I returned them all."

Eliza's veins bulged. "It's only been a few days! And you've forgotten everything I taught you all those days!"

So, in order to catch him again, she held Chen Jing down and beat him. Although she would not get hurt, she would still feel the pain and suffer the suffering.

During their first practice session, Eliza didn't expect Chen Jing to "remember" much; she simply checked his condition. After a long period of beating, Eliza pulled the bewildered Chen Jing to his feet. "It seems your foundation is still there, you just forgot everything." She then pulled out a seven-centimeter-thick textbook and handed it to him. "Luckily, I didn't forget to bring it with me when I left."

“…”Oh my god!” The first thing to do after traveling through time is to study.

Chen Jing felt like you'd just finished graduating from high school and burned all your notebooks, celebrating the end of your miserable life. Then the teacher who had taught you for years patted you on the shoulder and said, "Recite the Li Sao." After you racked your brains and memorized it, he thought for a moment and said, "I don't think it's good enough. You need to review it again."

"Tears came out." Chen Jing still insisted on reading the table of contents of the book.

Volume 1: Basic fighting knowledge.

Volume 2: How to Train.

Volume 3: Key points for close combat with the Nurke Amoeba.

…

Volume 12: How to Defeat a Lih.

Chen Jing: “???” He looked at the cover again, and it was indeed “Basics of Military Combat Training”.

This isn't even basic, is it?! Why is he in close combat with a fourth-level alien creature after just learning training?! Why is he so victorious after learning Volume 12?! Is this a textbook or a secret manual?!

Chen Jing opened the last volume with a pilgrimage-like mood. There was only a very simple sentence: "Are you dreaming?"

Chen Jing almost vomited blood.
