"So you mean they didn't fail to learn it, they just copied it incorrectly?"
Li Wei nodded repeatedly.
Qin Qingyu wanted to give Li Wei a good whack on the head. She felt that even if you took the lecturer's head out, you still couldn't make this, not even the worst robot.
Perhaps a large group of instructors combined could probably make one?
Qin Qingyu suddenly remembered the old saying, "Three cobblers with their wits combined can outwit a Zhuge Liang..."
Bah! It's more like three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang.
After hanging out with Li Wei for a few days, Qin Qingyu felt that her thought process was starting to go a little off.
Perhaps no normal person could accept this situation; it's like something out of a fantasy, or like watching a science fiction blockbuster.
The seventh day arrived quickly, and Qin Qingyu almost didn't recognize her own place anymore. "Am I playing some kind of VR experience game?"
Qin Qingyu was still a little doubtful about life, so she pinched Li Wei's palm.
"what are you doing?"
"Does it hurt?"
"Is that nonsense? Try pinching yourself."
"Seeing you in pain put my mind at ease. It turns out I wasn't dreaming."
Li Wei was speechless.
"Have you activated some strange attribute?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Qingyu turned pale. "Indeed! Logically speaking, I would never do something so unladylike!"
"I'm afraid it wouldn't be the original you who would have hit me on the head," Li Wei muttered to himself.
However, just as he uttered those words, an image of a woman patting a burly man on the head flashed into his mind. This scene was very familiar to him, as if he had seen it often, and the two of them also gave him a sense of familiarity. He figured they must have had a good relationship before he lost his memory.
The woman is probably his girlfriend, and the man is probably his brother?
Of course, there is also a very strong possibility that the two of them are a couple, and that he is the real father of their child.
Thinking about it this way, Li Wei felt much better.
Outside the fortress that Li Wei had modified, on a barren hill several thousand meters high—
A girl in a red dress sat on a rock, leisurely swinging her legs. Her fair toes, like snow-white grapes, twitched playfully every now and then, giving one the urge to lick their fragrance.
Below them sat a group of humanoids with dark red skin. They were members of the Crimson Clan, the same race as the girl, but their bloodline was different from hers, so their appearance was quite different from that of humans.
"Your Highness, when will our battle with the Bauhinia Clan begin? Our people are almost all assembled."
“Now…the time is not right, Hongni.”
"exist."
A handsome member of the tribe stepped forward and knelt down in the manner of an ancient subject bowing to an emperor.
"You're in charge of intelligence gathering, so let me ask you, what's been going on lately?"
"Over there, eight unidentified outsiders from the Bauhinia Clan seem to have formed a cooperative relationship with them. Based on observation, seven of them are extremely weak, even weaker than our lowest-ranking cannon fodder. As for the eighth one, we haven't been able to gauge his strength. He should be carrying an item that shields him from being seen or has a corresponding skill."
"So, war power is defined as X, right?"
X, or unknown, is an unavoidable and unignorable variable. In a battle between two sides, the most important thing to consider is this uncertainty, because it could be a weak card or a powerful ace that can turn the tide.
The girl in red nodded, indicating that she understood. Hongni continued to report, "Also, about 5,700 meters to the east, an unknown force has appeared."
"newcomer?"
“That’s right, we can’t find out their origins either, and their civilization is very different from ours.”
"Different?" The girl in red was taken aback. She vaguely remembered that place; she had been there not long ago, and it was no different from her previous impressions.
Therefore, the girl in red was very curious. Could it be that something earth-shattering had happened there in the few days she was away? Otherwise, Hongni could not have come to such a conclusion about the extremely different civilizations.
Sure enough, she saw Hongni's serious expression as she said, "Our informants noticed that a building there, starting with a single structure, was transformed from a desolate building into a steel structure in just a few days. Strange machines are constantly moving in and out of that metal shell. They should be manufactured robots, but we can't rule out the possibility that they are a race."
"In short, it can be basically determined that they are not of our kind?" A cold glint flashed in the red-clad girl's eyes.
Those of different races will surely have different hearts!
“Yes,” Hongni said respectfully.
"Very well then, let's put them aside for now," the girl in red said with a slight smile.
"Put it down?" Not only Hongni, but the other tribesmen were also puzzled, and they all looked to the girl in red for an explanation.
"Their people are a different race from ours, but what about the Zijing Clan?"
The girl in red spoke softly, in a suggestive tone.
Upon hearing this, the people below suddenly realized that the unknown force was also a potential enemy of the Bauhinia Clan. If the two sides were in a cooperative relationship, based on the units Hongni observed, there was no need to openly display it there. If they were to launch an attack, it would be better to do so within the territory of the Bauhinia Clan.
In other words, even if the Red Luo Clan leaves it alone, the Purple Thorn Clan will still be worried. Moreover, she believes that the Purple Thorn Clan will be even more impatient, otherwise they wouldn't be in such a hurry to win over that group of outsiders. From this point of view, the leader must be a rather impetuous person.
The girl in red, also known as Red Robe, explained that she was the leader of her tribe in this territory. Red Robe was a name passed down through generations of women, and the current female leader had to inherit it. Only she had this status and wore a red dress.
Her previous contact with Li Wei was not only a test, but also an observation and analysis. The desolate city was neither too big nor too small, and as one of the local strongmen, it was easy for a newcomer to be discovered.
Based on her brief interaction with Li Wei, he didn't seem like the kind of person who would cooperate, and she even had a vague feeling that... the boy wasn't mentally stable.
This was just her intuition, completely illogical. What she found most bizarre was that she could clearly see that the person's body was as fragile as glass, the kind of person she could crush with a single finger. Yet her sixth sense warned her, as if it were a divine revelation or a manifestation of her ancestors.
Thinking of this, the woman in red suddenly chuckled. In some places, their clan was even considered evil, and heaven would not protect them.
After thinking for a while, the woman in red spoke up: "Our great battle with the Zijing Clan is imminent. Although the Zijing Clan will definitely take action against that group, we cannot control the timing. So... Hongni, try to stir things up. It would be best to get them fighting first."
PS:
PSA: The last holiday of the year is over!
Update, update! We'll try our best to get back to daily updates.
My birthday is coming up soon... Speaking of which, without realizing it, this book... has been serialized for a year! A year! A year!
It suddenly dawned on me, and I'm shocked! A year has passed, and our updates have become like this?!
What to do if there's a problem with your computer system...
These past few days, whenever I try to write, my computer automatically shuts down as soon as I turn it on. I tried creating a document on the desktop for writing, but that didn't work either; it would immediately restart via File Explorer, and the document I just created would disappear instantly...
So, are there any tech-savvy folks out there...? How do I fix this situation? It's not that I don't want to update, it's just that this old machine is acting up.
Chapter 244 Look! My eyes are shining!
"Qingyu, I'm going out for a walk now. You stay here," Li Wei said earnestly to Qin Qingyu.
"Do we really have to go out?" Qin Qingyu's heart skipped a beat, as if she realized that what Li Wei was about to do had some kind of essential importance.
“Yes,” Li Wei said affirmatively.
Qin Qingyu stared at Li Wei with concern.
Suddenly, Li Wei spoke up: "Do you...believe in fate?"
Qin Qingyu felt a flutter in her heart. What did Li Wei mean by that? Did he mean that their meeting was destined? Was this like a scene from a TV drama where a man confesses his love to his sweetheart before going to war?
Qin Qingyu's heart pounded, and she felt incredibly nervous. Her mind was a jumbled mess. Should she accept? Would it seem too hasty? But Li Wei might not come back...
Qin Qingyu's face flushed slightly. She nodded hesitantly and said softly and shyly, "I believe you..."
“So…” Li Wei paused and said, “It is my destiny to wander the world, while you… can only stay in this tortoise shell.”
"Like a coward hiding in the mud."
Hey, you damn poop, you damn poop, did you hear me?!
Of course, this was just a silent cry from Qin Qingyu's heart; it was impossible for her to actually say it out loud, given the prevailing emphasis on moral education.
After Li Wei gave her a general explanation, Qin Qingyu could only sullenly stand by and watch. To put it nicely, she endured the humiliation; as Li Wei put it, she knew her place and acted like a coward.
But even if I'm a coward, it's still better than giving it away.
Li Wei didn't even know if she could protect herself. She felt that taking Qin Qingyu along was only useful as a BQ (a euphemism for sexual assault) on the way.
Centered on the military fortress, within a radius of a hundred meters, there were patrol vehicles either openly displayed or lurking in the shadows. Li Wei couldn't say for sure how many troops he currently possessed; at first, it was just a few, then dozens, the day before it was hundreds... and now...
It's not that he didn't learn math well; it's just that the number of fingers is limited. He can count a few, a few dozen, a few hundred, but he can't count more than that, because no normal person has more than ten fingers.
After saying goodbye to Qin Qingyu, Li Wei quickly left his territory alone. This territory was not just a few hundred meters, but a wider area of three thousand meters.
In recent days, Li Wei has been constantly exposed to all sorts of different things, both metallic and non-metallic. Ever since he modified that pistol, new knowledge has been constantly emerging in his mind, which is why he has been able to independently create so many robots that surpass modern technology.
What's even more amazing is that Li Wei's attribute panel kept climbing—
Name: Li Wei
Constitution: 70
Strength: 77
Agility: 82
Stamina: 64
Potential: To be determined
Skill: Unreadable
Talent: None?
Although the increase is small, it is quite terrifying in the God Realm, because this seemingly small increase is the result of at least several months of training or a large amount of resource investment that others would need to achieve.
As for Li Wei, ever since he was stimulated by the albino humanoid, his physical abilities have been increasing day by day. Although there was no one-time burst of growth, it was still quite remarkable, and this improvement did not seem to have stopped. On the contrary, it showed an increasing trend.
However, these things, which would be astonishing even in the grand scheme of things, are insignificant compared to the three question marks following the word "no" in Li Wei's talent section...
If the single question mark last time indicated the God's doubt or uncertainty about Li Wei, then this time the three question marks represent strong incomprehension and skepticism.
One question mark is enough to cause a huge uproar among the reincarnators; three question marks can only be described with two equally terrifying phrases: "terrifying" and "congratulations on becoming a father."
The desolate city is as large as a metropolis in the real world. This is intelligence gathered by the miniature robots dispatched by Li Wei. On this intelligence map, there is a biologically targeted radar that he created, which means...
He already had a grasp of the distribution of life units of the Bauhinia and Red Luo clans.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.
Li Wei, however, enjoys challenges and thrills; the line between life and death brings both immense terror and immense pleasure.
After walking several hundred meters beyond his own territory, Li Wei suddenly spoke up: "You've been following me for so long, don't you think this distance is enough for us to come out?"
After a while—
"You think I'm bluffing you?"
As he spoke, Li Wei raised his hand and fired the laser gun at a 31° angle to his left rear. The attack arrived almost instantly and silently, but just before Li Wei made his move, a figure darted out from there.
This was a man with dark purple skin, long black hair, and about 30 years old. He was wearing a full set of brown leather armor, with two daggers strapped to the outside of his thighs.
"When did you discover me?"
"When you first started following me."
The purple-skinned man shook his head firmly and said, "Impossible. I'm considered a top-notch stealth expert in the Purple Thorn Clan. I can see that there's a significant difference in physical abilities between you and me. How could you possibly sense me?"
Indeed, his analysis was extremely accurate. If it were the original Li Wei, he would have had incredibly strong control over his body. Even without activating overclocking adjustments, his six senses would far surpass those of others at the same level. However, in his current state, Li Wei's control over his body is far inferior to what it used to be. His overclocking and life adjustment abilities have been sealed.
However, even considering that he was still suffering from amnesia, Li Wei still had other means to perceive his surroundings.
Seeing that Li Wei had no intention of speaking, the man drew two daggers with lightning speed and lunged at Li Wei.
"Swift Shadow Flash!"
With the speed of the wind, a boost from the man's activated ability, he covered a vast distance in a second or two and arrived in front of Li Wei, the tip of his dagger aimed at Li Wei's forehead, and thrust it in!
Suddenly, he became alert and leaped backward. At the same time, a burst of lightning crackled around Li Wei's body for several seconds. If he hadn't dodged, even if he hadn't been injured by the lightning, his movements and reactions would have been significantly slowed down. In a life-or-death duel, even a slight weakening of strength could lead to an instant reversal of fortune.
"You are indeed carrying some technological products." The man sneered, "Don't think that just because we live in this deserted city, we are unaware of technological civilization."
"So what? The power of external things can never become a part of one's own strength."
As he spoke, the man's eyes suddenly met Li Wei's, and faint purple patterns appeared on his pupils.
