Gamers Are Fierce-Chapter 820 - 819: System

The simultaneous appearance of the Elder Father and the Lady Saint excited the passing Brain Worms immensely,

but due to the restrictions imposed by the Lady Saint's instructions, the Brain Worms inhabiting various Warrior Bugs' bodies dared not make any special moves, nor look over, and continued to stand their ground, doing their own tasks.

One such Brain Worm, housed in the body of a massive, yellow-black giant tiger black bull, carried a pile of books on its back, and hurriedly crawled towards the Bug Nest Factory.

Those books included historical records of different eras divided by countries, textbooks of subjects like high school math, physics, and chemistry, as well as cutting-edge scientific research papers, and even paper materials on popular culture.

Currently, since the Bug Nest unit hasn't developed skills for memory inheritance or memory transmission, newly born Brain Worms need to start learning from scratch, gradually accumulating knowledge, mastering various skills, and finally, according to their areas of expertise, taking their career paths to contribute to the Bug Nest.

The physiological structure of Brain Worms determines that their thinking speed is faster than that of ordinary humans, while their powers of observation, memory, and imagination are also stronger than those of ordinary people.

Moreover, Brain Worms do not require long rest periods (when the brain is tired, it can go half-asleep like a dolphin), with a dedication and consciousness that transcends humanity, even without work, they will find work themselves, completing all tasks and then learning to enrich themselves, living each day as if it were the last day of life.

Therefore, the time it takes for a Brain Worm to mature mentally from the moment it is born (produced) is extremely short.

The main factor limiting the scale of Brain Worms is Li Ang himself—once the number of Brain Worms becomes too large, the chaotic thoughts flooding the Divine Power channel will start to consume Li Ang's sanity.

Currently, there are one hundred and fifty-one Brain Worms in the Breeding Box, three hundred and forty-two Brain Worms in the Ocean Bug Nest, approaching a limit of about five hundred, and no more can be added.

It's just unknown what changes the appearance of Spiritual Energy will bring to this situation...

We've arrived.

Li Ang, with Chaichai, entered the Alchemy Workshop, prompting the three-headed Cereberus-like Brain Worms, who were holding brooms and mops and wiping the floor, to leave.

With a humble bow of its heads, each head of Cereberus held a broom, dustpan, and mop bucket as it dashed out of the Alchemy Workshop.

As it left, an eye suddenly sprouted on the surface of Chaichai's right arm, slowly closing only when observing Cereberus's silhouette disappearing outside the door.

This eye naturally belongs to the Double Blade Turkey, which, since being promoted to assist the Lady Saint as a covert auxiliary Brain Worm,

had assigned the cleaning duties of the Alchemy Workshop to the second most devoted Cereberus among all Brain Worms,

triggering a strong sense of vigilance in the Double Blade Turkey—even though there are no issues of interest between Brain Worms, as they are merely pieces, components in the great plan of the Elder Father, the importance among components is, however, different.

All Brain Worms hope to contribute as much as possible to the Elder Father, seeing the attention of the Elder Father and Lady Saint as an honor, and laziness as a disgrace.

Therefore, the Double Blade Turkey is not fond of Cereberus, who replaces him in these duties, daringly taking over his sacred duty of sweeping the sanctum...

Look at this ground, it's obviously not cleaned properly, and there's still dust! The waxing is not smooth enough either!

When I cleaned the sanctum, I would even measure the weight of residual dust per square meter and would re-clean if it didn't meet the standard!

The young Brain Worms these days are becoming increasingly irresponsible and unable to endure hardship! How can this be contributing to the Elder Father? How can this gain the recognition of the Lady Saint?

Internally, the Double Blade Turkey was filled with raging complaints, but externally it did not show any signs of its thoughts, deciding to reclaim his position in cleaning the sanctum once the period of undercover work was over,

and to harshly criticize Cereberus's work attitude and style at the Brain Worm meeting.

Absolute loyalty is not absolutely disloyalty. How can one sweep the world if they cannot clean a room?

The Elder Father and the Lady Saint did not notice the colorful inner drama of the Double Blade Turkey,

as Li Ang pulled the [Psychic Ability Crystal Guidebook‧Beginner] out from the backpack section, prompting Chaichai to lean closer and ask curiously, "This thing is being sold for fifteen thousand?"

"Yes."

Li Ang nodded, "Including the cost of three Perfect Level items required for sacrifice, the cost of just learning amounts to over forty thousand. It is the most expensive single item I've bought.

After all, it's a complete energy system, carrying both cultivation methods and a large number of beginner skills.

The price is not unreasonable and unbearable."

"Oh, oh." Chaichai nodded thoughtfully, as if she'd thought of something, "By the way, this kind of extraordinary power system, is teachable to others, isn't it?

Besides, after learning it, one could also sell the skill books to other forces. Who knows, maybe we'll earn another round."

"It is possible."

Li Ang nodded, "Some books that documented power systems did have a note stating they couldn't be taught. Under the System monitoring, users couldn't teach the skills to others after practice, nor could they sell the books, or transcribe the skill.

This particular Psychic Ability Manual doesn't have such a note, it can be repeatedly learned.

However, I'm not planning on selling it back after learning."

"Eh?"

Chaichai blinked, understanding immediately, "The Spiritual Energy is meant for communication among the Bug Clan, right? If other forces were to obtain this manual and learn from the same system of Spiritual Energy,

it could potentially cause great trouble to the swarm, like casting a psychic shock on the battlefield directly, immobilizing lower-level Bug Nest units, or even hypnotizing Brain Worms to extract intelligence."

"Exactly."

Li Ang shrugged, "Currently, not many methods of cultivating Spiritual Energy systems exist in the hands of the major powers, which is good news for us..."

"Hmm...can I learn it?"

Chaichai rubbed her hands together awkwardly, "I think I have a bit of talent..."

"Not really."

Li Ang shook his head, "The basis of Spiritual Energy is mental strength, which derives from the 'life energy' contained within a creature's body and soul.

You don't have a living body matched with your soul, so the likelihood of learning is not high."

"Huh?"

Chaichai paused her hands, instantly covering a small disappointment, pretending to have asked nothing.

The Qinge Armor is, after all, just a Puppet Plate, not Chaichai's original flesh body—actually, if her bones could be found, the current Bug Nest could clone her an original body,

but unfortunately, her bones were buried in a script world long ago, and it was Li Ang who buried them... After all, people back then didn't think this far ahead.

As Li Ang's powers rapidly grew, Chaichai, as a Spiritual Body, was gradually unable to keep up with his pace of upgrading,

because Chaichai is merely a Lone Ghost, not a player, and has yet to come across a suitable power system.

If she continued to laze around and act as a cute mascot, naturally there would be no problem—it is easier to be a mascot watching Li Ang's power soar, cheering and waving flags on the side.

However, what if I, Chai Cuiqiao, want to be a strong one not easily swept away by the current of destiny?

Noticing Chaichai's mood, Li Ang chuckled and ruffled her hair, "Not being able to learn Spiritual Energy doesn't mean you can't learn others.

This Lost World Championship will last seven days, staying in the real world isn't safe with your current actual abilities slightly low.

Once the Spiritual Energy book is unlocked, I'll go to the marketplace to pick out some suitable items for you."
