Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Yao, who went out, ran into the policewoman, Captain Li Shan, and Squad Leader Zhang.

The soldier had been seriously injured in the mysterious land and taken to the military hospital when he walked out of it. Not everyone was given extra care by Chief Shi. Therefore, he had to rest for a few days. While he was still recovering from his wounds, Lin Yao and his old friend came over to visit him. After learning the whole story, he and the two of them immediately expressed their gratitude to Lin Yao.

“This time, we…”

“Alright, we have been through combat together. There is no need to stand on ceremony with each other.”

After exchanging a few words with the rest of them, Lin Yao, who had fully recovered from his wounds, left the hospital and walked toward his house.

However, he realized that his family had moved most of their belongings to the villa. They were already living there.

“We knew that you’d be back. Hurry up and eat.”

After sitting down, Lin Yao noticed that his parents were very happy and had smiles on their faces. Lin Yao could not help but be curious.

“Why are both of you so happy? Is the villa so gorgeous?”

“Of course the villa is nice. However, this is just part of the reason for our good mood. Both your dad and I have been promoted. Now, everyone praises us for educating and raising a good son. Many people come to ask me how I teach my children…”

Lin Yao’s mother was beaming as she explained this to Lin Yao. He realized that what his parents were the happiest about were not the villa and the promotion, but the praise of others for educating a good child. Lin Yao found it amusing.

‘Sure enough, middle-aged parents are the happiest when others praise their children.’

Lin Yao watched his parents, who were beaming, and could sense the warmth and joy of this happy family. However, in the meantime, he suddenly thought of the tragic situation of the neighboring city, which had been breached. He remembered corpses being strewn about and recalled the people who had survived, who had been holding on to the corpses of their family members, crying sorrowfully. There was a flash of coldness in Lin Yao’s eyes. He was now even more determined to protect these families and the country.

‘This kind of life should go on forever. Anyone who destroys this must die!’

After having a casual chat with his parents, he showered and got ready to rush to school.

However, halfway down the road, something good happened. The various materials he had applied for yesterday morning, including three Blessed Beads, an Angel Gem, a Large Capacity Electrical Energy Storage Crystal, and a Brilliant Light Sword, had all been delivered today.

‘Delivery is very fast. All of them arrived on the same day. I didn’t know that the national post was so efficient.’

Of course, the national post was not that fast. It was just that the city leaders had taken notice of Lin Yao. They had already sent instructions that if Lin Yao applied for resources, techniques, or any other materials, the team would have to expedite the entire process. This was evident based on the speed at which Lin Yao’s family had settled down in the villa and his parents had been promoted.

Other people might have no idea, but if he applied for a resource and was approved, it would be delivered to Lin Yao as quickly as possible.

Among the many resources, Lin Yao valued the Angel Gem the most. Now that it had been delivered, he did not feel like going to school. He made a phone call to apply for leave and went to the Abnormal Ability Department.

‘With the Angel Gem, my Tree of Light should be able to strengthen its foundation. There is no doubt about that. The Tree of Light evolved from an ordinary tree that was surrounded by the aura of the Celestial Tree. The biggest feature of the Celestial Tree is that angels are lodged inside the tree. It can be said that angels are the source of the Celestial Tree and the source of the Tree of Light. Therefore, by absorbing the gems left over from the fall of the angels, this will definitely be the most standard form of atavism.’

Lin Yao went to the Abnormal Ability Department, bubbling from excitement. The resources were being guarded by the middle-aged man who manned the Technique Chamber. After showing his identification and signing the documents, Lin Yao received the four items and the diamond combat skill, the Super Electromagnetic Gun, that he had applied for.

Lin Yao was only able to receive the Super Electromagnetic Gun due to the Heavenly Mirror. He confirmed right away that this was not a combat skill that he could learn at present. Like the comments had mentioned, to learn this combat skill, he had to first study electromagnetics and improve his computing skills.

Although Lin Yao looked forward to the Angel Gem the most, apart from the Super Electromagnetic Gun, he was also interested in other items as well. He first opened the box that contained the crystal sword.

This was a long sword in the style of an eight-faced Chinese sword. Like its name implied, the sword was crystal clear and extremely sharp.

Of course, in Lin Yao’s opinion, the best thing about it was that the long sword had a good transmission of light, as it was made from morning light crystals. After taking the long sword, he waved it gently and was able to use the Clear Mirror Refracting Technique that he’d had trouble using.

‘What is difficult about the second move of the Clear Mirror Swordsmanship is projecting the light attribute energy out of the body and attaching it to the long sword. Only this way can the light be refracted. I am not able to do it due to insufficient mental strength. However, now that I have a crystal sword, there is no need to cover the surface of the long sword with light. As long as I unleash a vital energy seed, light can be transmitted into the crystal sword.’

As light energy rushed into the crystal sword, Lin Yao realized that besides his ability to use the Clear Mirror Refracting Technique, the first stroke, the flashing Sword-Drawing Technique was being enhanced as well.

‘This sword suits me the best.’

The crystal sword was a pleasant surprise for Lin Yao. Although the Blessed Beads looked ordinary, Lin Yao could feel peace of mind just by looking at it.

‘With this around, it is akin to having three lives for people at a low level.’

Other than the Blessed Beads, there was also the Electrical Energy Storage Crystal made from thunder beast crystal core, which had been fully charged and made into a necklace. A charger and a note were also included.

[Note: The electrical energy crystal can store a lot of electricity, and one full charge is sufficient to provide electricity for one community for a month. However, please note that it will take a long time to charge it using a home charger. One can use a high-voltage cable instead.]

[Another Note: It is not recommended to charge at an elevated place during thunderstorms. Although this saves power, the shelf life of the Electrical Energy Storage Crystal will be shortened.]

‘Uh…’

Lin Yao was completely stunned upon seeing the final note. To think that someone would think of charging it during a thunderstorm…

‘Wait a minute! A one-month electricity supply for a community? How big can the community be? Would I need 100,000 yuan to charge it?’

Lin Yao no longer treated the final note as a joke. It might be possible that someone had tried this before because they were very poor.

Although Lin Yao had this thought in mind, he did not intend to stop using the electrical energy crystal. Instead, he hung it around his neck and turned on the switch.

Electrical energy radiated from the crystal right away. After getting in contact with Lin Yao’s body, it was quickly absorbed by him.

Ordinary people would not be able to bear the numbness of an electric shock. However, Lin Yao could feel a soothing numbness in his body. He could even feel that his cells were hungry for more electricity stimulation.

He felt as if he was in paradise. He was fascinated by such feelings, but at the same time, he felt like crying.

‘After passing the flat zone and entering the comfort zone, I can begin in-depth electric energy development again. Be happy, be happy. Woo…’

Although he felt happy thinking about it, Lin Yao almost cried. He really did not want to go through being paralyzed by the electric shock again. He did not want to foam at the mouth and suffer from urinary incontinence either.

If he thought about it, recharge training was not the same thing as in-depth ability development. For example, walking slowly during exercise was different from physical training.

Recharge training and in-depth ability development were so much different. Take sports training for example. One ran, while someone else practiced martial arts.

As far as Lin Yao knew, the in-depth ability development he had received was only at the first level of development. It was mainly used to develop the body.

If there was a first level, there would also be a second level. According to the information he had discovered, the second level of development involved the brain. After the development, one would have the electromagnetic induction ability. By then, with the switch from electricity to electromagnetism, Lin Yao would not only be able to control electricity, but he could also make use of electromagnetic effects to control iron weapons like?Magneto¹.

Lin Yao was unaware what he would need to go through at the third level of development. However, he believed that these abilities would be much more powerful, and the development of these abilities would require more in-depth development.

‘Project Thunder God! One might become Thor when the ability development reaches the final stage!’
