How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!-Chapter 19 - Becoming a Reserve
Chapter 19: Chapter 19 Becoming a Reserve
Lin Xiaosu laughed, "Chang Ye, you really aren't considerate. I've been brought over by you for half a month now, and you haven't even bothered to check on whether I have enough food, warm clothing, or whether the little assistant is obedient..."
Behind him was Chang Ye.
Chang Ye curled her lips, "With the living conditions here, do I need to worry about your food and clothing? As for whether the little assistant is obedient... at the beginning, perhaps truly disobedient, but after tonight, perhaps she will be."
"What do you mean? Did I pass the assessment?" Lin Xiaosu got a bit excited.
"Let's put the assessment aside for now and talk about these books you've read. What are your thoughts?"
Lin Xiaosu sighed lightly, "Peace and stability are not taken for granted. Our peace today exists only because some carry the burden on our behalf."
Chang Ye quietly looked into his eyes.
His eyes at this moment were incredibly clear.
Lin Xiaosu turned the pages of the book in front of him, pointing to a spot, "There's a questionable point here."
"A questionable point?"
"Yes!" Lin Xiaosu said, "The entire book uses pseudonyms, but only in this event, a real organization name is used. Why?"
"You really have a peculiar focus! Others focus on the incident itself, but you focus on real names and pseudonyms..." Chang Ye said, "Since you brought this up, I will give you an answer, it is Qianlong's painstaking intention."
"Painstaking intention? What do you mean?"
Chang Ye took the book from his hands and opened to that page, "Nine Headed Snake, Qianlong's greatest enemy, and globally, the most sinful organization. To contend with it is the ultimate goal of every member of Qianlong. And this Jing Lei, became a God by killing Baigu King. By including his real name and the true facts in this textbook, the intentions are threefold. First, to tell every member of Qianlong that legends are self-created and are earned through bloodshed. Second, to also tell Nine Headed Snake that although they claim to be invincible, Daxia's Qianlong can still take them down without negotiation. Thirdly, it concerns Jing Lei himself, his monumental achievements indeed merit inclusion in the textbook."
"Jing Lei, a monument of Qianlong?" Lin Xiaosu said.
"Yes, he has truly moved beyond the standard of a 'Sprout' and entered the 'Awakened'. Even in the mysterious Awakening Domain, he ranks among the top, and more importantly, there's a saying in Qianlong: When Jing Lei strikes, all is settled! If there's a mission, action confirms it..."
Lin Xiaosu etched into his mind an incomparably powerful figure, Jing Lei! His achievements were shocking and extraordinary...
Stepping into Qianlong 101, he also gained an understanding of the mysterious genetic world.
Genetic Transformation, bestowing humans with superhuman characteristics.
But this grand undertaking has just begun.
Currently, the Genetic People formed by genetic transformation, the vast majority only possess superhuman characteristics in certain aspects, known as 'Sprouts', representing the budding of human enhancement.
This is the first level of Genetic People.
There is another mysterious level among Genetic People, called 'Awakeners'!
What is awakening?
It's transcendent power!
A superhuman, a transcendent, a world of difference between two terms where the former surpasses ordinary humans; the latter transcends and becomes almost 'Non-human'!
Every 'Awakener' is a legend fit to be recorded in history...
Suddenly, his gaze shifted to the left.
On the left, a woman with a gentle pace walked over. Not the little assistant, she was real.
Her face was round, and her eyes carried a friendly smile, very politely holding a tray with two cups of tea; one of the cups she handed to Chang Ye, who took it and sipped.
The other cup was handed to Lin Xiaosu. Lin Xiaosu held it in his hand, examining the tea, Qingming Tea, a lot better than the usual official tea drunk in this library. The tea looked clean and pleasing to the eye, but under the scrutiny of Heavenly Tao Wisdom Eye, there was clearly some trickery in the clear tea liquid...
After carefully examining for a while, Lin Xiaosu gently placed the teacup on a side table, picking up his originally cold tea.
The round-faced beauty's eyes widened, "Sir, do you prefer cold tea?"
"Listen to you, who likes to drink cold tea?" Lin Xiaosu smiled, "I'm just temporarily unsure of what type of poison you've put in the teacup, so I wasn't planning on testing it with my own body."
The young beauty's complexion changed, "What do you mean?"
Lin Xiaosu said, "I would like to ask you the same... It's our first meeting today, and here at the sacred Qianlong Base, why did you poison me?"
"You're talking nonsense!" The girl kicked out.
Her kick, swift and unmatched, Lin Xiaosu stared at her toes, clearly seeing them, but was unable to dodge!
If he had a gun in his hands, he could shoot, but he didn't have one.
However, his reaction was noteworthy, his waist twisting sharply, and his whole body jumped up.
The young beauty's kick missed him and hit the chair.
However, just as her foot was about to hit the chair, her foot stopped, half an inch away, halting forcefully...
Thump!
Lin Xiaosu's body landed on the coffee table, about to sweep everything on it to the floor.
Chang Ye flicked her finger lightly, instantly tossing up teapots and cups. With a light guide of her hand, Lin Xiaosu dazedly sat back in place, while the teapots, cups, and tray tossed in the air landed back in their original places without spilling a drop of tea.
This move was truly amazing.
"I understand!" Lin Xiaosu exclaimed, "You were so upset because you lost to me in the system. You talk about rules in Qianlong? Failing in the practice field then resorting to poisoning in reality... Do you even understand the concept of 'martial morality'?"
The young beautiful woman was shocked, "How did you know it was me who fought against you in the system?"
"The system and real person are different, physiological features are totally distinct, but your leg-kicking action is exactly the same as the assassin's in the system, how could I not recognize it?"
Of course, the person was Xinyue!
She was dumbfounded...
However, Chang Ye's eyes shone brightly, "I have a question too, how did you know that Xinyue had poisoned the tea?"
"Because her gaze was full of ill intentions!" Lin Xiaosu said, "Although she looks innocent and kind while smiling, the moment I picked up the teacup, I spotted a sly expression of scheming success in her eyes..."
"I'll curse your eight ancestors! How dare you act cocky in front of me..." Xinyue yelled, completely letting loose.
"You think this is a curse? My eight ancestors in their graves are pretty thrilled..."
"Damn it! Forget it, let's fight!" Xinyue leaped up, kicking sideways...
Chang Ye reached out and caught her calf on the spot: "Xinyue, looking to get points deducted again?"
All of Xinyue's movements halted instantly...
Point deductions are her lifeline.
It takes a thousand points to transition from Reserve to full member. She could have done it with her merits, accumulating over two thousand points, but with her frequent deductions, she's down to only 853 points. If she really turned this bastard into a pig-headed mess in the library, she might lose 200 points.
Chang Ye's gaze shifted to Lin Xiaosu: "Let's head back, your little assistant has calmed down."
"Is there no justice? I get into a disagreement, and I risk losing points, yet he just passes the assessment so easily..."
Amid Xinyue's accusations, Lin Xiaosu left the library.
Xinyue might not understand, but he did.
Today was also an assessment.
There were two points in the assessment.
First, your thoughts on "War Spy".
Reflections on "War Spy" can reveal one's inner thoughts.
He told Chang Ye, through these intricate spy tales, his feeling was: today's peace and happiness comes because someone else is shouldering the burdens.
As he said this, Chang Ye stared into his eyes.
She knew he was telling the truth.
This is the essential mindset of a Qianlong member.
Qianlong doesn't just test skills, but also mindset. A correct worldview and a genuine heart are prerequisites for critical responsibilities.
That was the first test.
Then there was a second.
That was Xinyue's poisoning.
As a Qianlong member, one must always stay alert. If Lin Xiaosu had drunk that cup of tea, his assessment would've been a failure.
But Lin Xiaosu didn't just correctly deduce the tea was poisoned and choose not to drink. He also demonstrated an essential skill. What was it?
He accurately captured the similarity between Xinyue's kick and the Genetic Person in the system, thus deducing that Xinyue was the assassin in the system.
What terrifying observational and judgment skills are these?
With these three layers of assessment.
He smoothly passed the entry test of Qianlong, and from the moment his assistant privileges were activated, he became a Qianlong Reserve.
Entering his own room, Lin Xiaosu met his little assistant, little Luo, again.
Little Luo, smiling, told him, "Sir, you now have the privileges, Little Luo can do everything for you."
Everything...
Lin Xiaosu was thrilled: "Haha, wife has turned into a mother-in-law, your day has come too... Little Luo, let's have a round of all the Eight Great Cuisines you claim to master!"
"Sorry, sir, you can't eat so much alone. The Qianlong Regulations clearly prohibit wastage."
Damn it!

In the end, Lin Xiaosu opted for three dishes and one soup, which is the upper limit set by Qianlong Regulations.
However, he did have some choices; he could select any of the Eight Great Cuisines, mix and match one type of dish with another type of soup.
Sitting on the sofa, Lin Xiaosu watched as little Luo rolled up his sleeves to cook for him, feeling quite mixed. How expensive is such a capable robot? Maybe, after getting paid, I'll buy one to play with...
During the meal, little Luo stood by, ready to assist.
The food tasted top-notch, five-star rating indeed.
After finishing the meal, Lin Xiaosu, sipping tea handed by her, looked her up and down: "Little Luo."
"Here!"
"All your functions are activated?"
"Yes, sir."
"Does it include the ultimate function?"
"Little Luo doesn't understand what you mean, sir. There's no concept of ultimate function in Little Luo's data bank..."
At this, Lin Xiaosu began to explain...
Little Luo blinked her beautiful big eyes, word for word absorbing it into her database, finally understanding: "Sir's talking about solving physiological needs; that's not Little Luo's job. Little Luo is a Class B robot, made of alloy down there, without any openings. Sir, do you want to modify Little Luo? If so, it needs an application and leaders' review."
"No no, I was just asking casually."
"Let Little Luo give you a comprehensive answer..."
With a blink, the knowledge of robot mechanisms appeared in the battle chamber.
