Nine twenty.
It’s not too late.
But in this cold winter with snow falling, the night is already deep.
Rooftop terrace.
In the wisps of hot and humid mist, Xi Shenlian was lying comfortably in the swimming pool that was heated to the perfect temperature, wearing only a pair of swimming trunks.
It feels like taking a relaxing bath in a large bathtub.
The pool is surrounded by a variety of transplanted and trimmed decorative plants.
Above your head is a dome of extra-large one-way transparent bulletproof glass and the boundless, deep starry sky.
Lie in the pool.
Looking up at the most conspicuous star in the sky above, the Earth's satellite - the moon, Xi Shenlian can clearly see all kinds of scenes that are invisible to the naked eye.
That's the broken surface of the moon!
Huge meteorite craters, fist marks bigger than mountains, huge rift valleys stretching for thousands of miles...
Even though the distance is more than five million kilometers.
All kinds of scenes.
It was still captured by Xishenlian with the naked eye.
And those traces that have lasted for thousands of years are the battle records left behind by the high-level awakeners of this world from ancient times to the present.
Even though some of the awakened ones have died out for who knows how many years, their traces will always remain, declaring their existence to the world for a long time.
to be honest.
This made Xi Shenlian a little fascinated.
He also hopes that one day he will be able to declare his existence to all things in the world and to freely exert his power on all things.
Then.
He muttered to himself a little hesitantly:
"How about going to the moon and building a pyramid for fun later?"
"But it's a bit far..."
"The straight-line distance between the Earth and the Moon is more than five million kilometers. It would take at least three to five days to go back and forth..."
Although the moon in this world is still a satellite of the Earth, its size is not only one forty-ninth of the Earth as in the previous life, but one fifth of the current size of the Earth.
If it weren't for this.
I guess he might have been beaten to a pulp by the awakened ones!
but.
The huge distance between the two also means that ordinary people in this world don’t have much idea about lunar exploration.
Basically, it's just the awakened ones wandering around on the moon.
Hear him talking to himself.
Ye Qisaki, who was cutting an apple for him, subconsciously began to think about what speed Nishigami Lian would need to reach in order to have a chance of achieving his ridiculous idea of traveling between the earth and the moon, a total distance of more than 10 million kilometers, within three to five days.
But it was just a simple calculation.
Faced with the exaggerated speed, she instinctively chose to shake her head.
Let’s not talk about whether Xishenlian can do it.
Just the act of running so far just to build a pyramid made her feel a little crazy.
but.
Since ancient times, this world has had a strange tradition of awakened people wandering around in outer space, which means that Xi Shenlian’s idea just now cannot be said to have no chance of being realized. On the contrary, it has a great chance of being realized.
Judging from the importance Tian Yuanli places on Xi Shenlian, Ye Qisaki feels that Xi Shenlian's potential should be very high among the awakened ones. Maybe after ten years or so, Xi Shenlian can really go to the surface of the moon and build pyramids for fun?
So, she said casually:
"You should wait until you become a high-level awakener before considering going to the moon."
Although she didn't understand how high-level the high-level awakeners were.
Hearing this.
Xi Shenlian, who was soaking in the hot water, also agreed and said:
"...Then I'll go up there and have a look after I reach the [Self-Stage]."
Now he has already had the ability to escape the planet's gravity and go to outer space.
It also has the ability to survive in outer space and move long distances.
But that speed is no different from a snail crawling in outer space, so there is really no need to go now!
Ye Qisaki, who had previously learned from Xi Shen Lian that awakeners were divided into [initial awakening stage], [mature stage], [self stage], [perfection stage], and [sublimation stage], now thought that Xi Shen Lian was only an [initial awakening stage awakener] after hearing his words. She nodded slowly and said nonchalantly:
"Then I wish you to achieve it soon."
"I hope it will be successful within ten years. Then it would be great if you could take me to see the moon..."
Xi Shenlian responded casually:
"It won't take that long. It will be done in a while. I'll take you with me then."
But Ye Qisaki thought he was joking and replied with a smile:
"Then I'll wait and see."
When speaking.
After peeling the apple, she used the tip of the fruit knife to pick up a piece of fresh fruit flesh and handed it to Xi Shenlian, and introduced it casually:
"These are the Langangshan apples that were delivered this afternoon. They are pesticide-free and fertilizer-free. They are irrigated entirely with mountain spring water. Workers regularly remove insects and prune them every day. There are even strict standards for the amount of time they get to sunbathe. If the natural sunlight is not enough, workers use artificial light to supplement it... This is why each of these apples costs tens of thousands of yen."
After listening to this.
Xi Shenlian raised her head and bit the fruit flesh.
"Will that set of operations really make it taste better?"
Ye Qisaki shrugged and replied:
“Whether it will taste better or not depends on personal taste, but at least it can definitely be sold at a higher price.”
then.
She continued to feed him and said:
"Are you really not going to take care of the situation at the company?"
"Due to your delegation of authority, those guys have indeed recruited a lot of inexplicable employees today."
"A street sweeper who has been sweeping the streets for 22 years and wants to work in drug research and development. A middle-aged unemployed vagrant who wants to develop a space rocket engine but only has a high school diploma. A college student who just graduated from the last-ranked fake university in Japan with a major in logistics and now wants to work in large-scale online games. A military geek who has never studied a related major and plans to create some kind of super weapon by just working at home..."
Let’s talk about the latter.
There was only helplessness in Ye Qisaki's words.
no way.
She felt that a company with such a diverse and overly complex membership had too much potential!
I think after seeing this, other companies will just call us experts!
But faced with her concerns.
Xi Shenlian, however, was extremely casual and didn't care at all.
He chewed his apple and said:
"It doesn't matter."
"It doesn't matter even if those guys all look like a bunch of expensive stuff."
"I think they may give us a lot of surprises soon..."
People who do great things may not necessarily be outstanding before they accomplish anything.
Maybe it was because I accomplished something great by accident that I gradually became outstanding.
I was born to be useful.
This is a sentence with a very simple meaning.
Meaning: No one is truly useless.
But everyone's talents and opportunities are different.
This makes it difficult to say what your specific use is and whether you can make use of it.
He has the talent to be a top driver, but he has never touched a steering wheel in his life.
He has an innate keen sense for mathematics and is a natural mathematician, but he cannot even get basic education.
When preparing food, he has perfect premonition and judgment about the processing of ingredients, but he lives in a primitive cannibal tribe in the Amazon forest.
Hindered by life.
Due to circumstances.
Due to identity.
Most people may never have the opportunity to show their true potential in their entire life!
Just like a thousand-mile horse that has never met a good horse trainer.
So what if you have potential?
You can still only waste your life, doing the most basic things until you die.
But even so.
Occasionally, some guys are able to, despite their difficult lives, rely on their own hobbies and persistence, plus some extremely simple basic conditions, to tinker with something on their own that is enough to change human civilization!
It is the unstoppable brilliance of potential and the nature that refuses to be ordinary.
And relying on the complementary passive blessings of the two abilities [Beast of Power] and [The Fortune at the Top].
Xi Shenlian’s company is like some kind of special vortex!
In that area that is invisible to the naked eye, many invisible influences are constantly being attracted.
All kinds of people who were originally only doing nothing, wasting their lives on trivial matters, and never showing their potential until they died, voluntarily joined the [Purple Fantasy Sky] by accident, and by chance, they got all kinds of opportunities to show their abilities and ambitions, thus getting rid of the shackles of the past. In addition to showing their potential, they also... did not forget to act as running dogs and pawns for Xi Shenlian~
at the moment.
Even though those guys haven't yet shown their potential.
But as they joined one after another.
Xi Shenlian could still clearly feel that the [Beast of Power] was becoming stronger and stronger! !
