Wang Zheng?
Classmate Wang was still mining now, except he was no longer focused solely on it. Whenever no one was around while he was mining, Charcoal would come out. He would look at the lone and busy Wang Zheng. The robot had already changed. He had changed drastically from before, but that feeling of closeness still existed. A sense of nostalgia remained in his heart.
Charcoal did not know what kind of existence he was. Was he a memory or what? But he knew his responsibility.
He did not know whether his previous master had died or survived facing the Laws of the Universe. Perhaps only by helping the current little master could he learn the final result.
He had waited for a long time for an heir, but by the time it finally happened, there was a deviation. Due to the Rubik’s Cube, the trend of things became unpredictable, or in other words, uncontrollable.
This was not to say that Wang Zheng had lost control, but that the fate of the entire human race had lost control. This was a type of luck, but it would not be useful to talk about this kind of mysterious thing.
Wang Zheng was a bit like the previous master, but he was also different. He felt that Wang Zheng’s goals were clearer, his sense of responsibility was also stronger, while his previous master was happier.
At this moment, Wang Zheng was working enthusiastically. However, his attention was not on mining. That rascal Piglet had already been gone for two days and there were no traces of him coming back. He was a bit worried. Previously, that rascal insisted on doing it alone. The situation was very dangerous now. If he was caught, then it would be problematic.
But now he really could not act rashly. Piglet said that the thing on his wrist was very dangerous. Once it was activated, it would kill him in an instant. If he wanted to take action, he must first remove this bracelet. However, only the security team of Fallen Paradise could remove this thing and that was now under the control of the Bill family. This was also the place where the Milky Way Alliance refrained from attacking for fear of harming innocents. Some powerful people did not even have the chance to fight, and they died directly on the streets. They had completed many difficult tasks and had such glory, but here, they would die unknown deaths. And in such sensitive times, this grey area of Fallen Paradise would be without rules. The most important thing was that there were countless people from the underworld hiding there.
This guy Charcoal came out quite frequently recently, but he was of no use. It was more of him thinking alone, but Wang Zheng felt at ease. According to Charcoal, Ability X had to match up with cultivation techniques in order for the body could withstand it. Otherwise, it would be like the Self-Harming Seven Fists. Wang Zheng’s current Ability X burst out a little bit too fast, but his cultivation techniques could not keep up. The best state would be that the realm of cultivation techniques was higher than that of the Ability X, which meant that the realm of mental power was the highest. If it was the opposite, the damage on the body would be too large. To put it more seriously, his life force would be drained.
This was why the so-called geniuses who were superior in only Ability X had almost all disappeared only after a few decades.
Of course, other than cultivation techniques, there were many other methods to strengthen the body. After all, the biotechnology now was also very developed.
While Wang Zheng knew he was not that stupid, after the Primordial Regression Technique entered the second stage, it was as stable as a stream. It was very difficult to create any huge waves. It was much harder to understand than Ability X. Mental power was more susceptible to stimulation and outbursts during crucial events. On the other hand, there were no shortcuts for cultivation techniques. It was really necessary to improve it steadily and slowly. Wang Zheng would at most incorporate the workings of the Primordial Regression Technique into his breathing. Actually, the nature of cultivation techniques was also their breathing methods.
He incorporated it daily, executing a full cycle a day. It could be said that breathing was cultivating qi, and cultivating a full cycle of the technique would allow him to gather qi.
Sometimes, Wang Zheng would think that if Charcoal gave him some suggestions to inspire him, wouldn’t that save a lot of trouble?
But looking at Charcoal’s blank looks, he felt that it was better not to get infected by his foolishness too.
The mine shaft was always filled with loud noises, but to Wang Zheng and Charcoal, there was a way for them to isolate themselves from this noise.
At this moment, footsteps sounded and Charcoal’s silhouette disappeared into the dim mine shaft.
It was Zuckerberg.
Zuckerberg was quite depressed. With great difficulty, he managed to recruit a hard-to-come-by, efficient, and hardworking miner. Now the miner had been bought by someone else.
But he could not do anything. After all, he was just a miner head.
There was nothing to bring along. After exiting the mines, it did not take long for Wang Zheng to see Piglet. He was still dressed like before. You could see that he was very cautious. This little guy was also smart and cunning.
“What do we do next?” Wang Zheng asked. Actually, what he wanted to know was the intentions of the Julian family. Since this little guy had come back safely, it meant that the Julian family had not completely collapsed.
“Brother Wang Zheng. Of course, I cannot tell you the next step here. Follow me.” Then the two took the city express like before. Perhaps this was the most unobtrusive and safest way.
This little guy seemed very excited and had a hint of hope. “Piglet, what is the situation of the Julian family like? Did you contact anyone from the Milky Way Alliance?”
“Brother Wang Zheng, shouldn’t we confirm the name of our team, then talk about the specifics?” Piglet was still very concerned about the name of this team. This was the key to becoming famous and popular in the future.
“You can name our team,” Wang Zheng said. He really could not keep up with little kid’s thinking.
“Let’s call us… the Judgment Angels. We are the Judgement Angels duo and we will judge those bastards!” Piglet said while clenching his fist. Clearly, there was sadness and anger deep in his eyes.
Wang Zheng smiled slightly. This little guy was not simple. He saw Wang Zheng as a savior, but unfortunately, Wang Zheng did not represent the Milky Way Alliance. However, Classmate Wang had a strong point, and that was: he never undervalued himself. The Milky Way Alliance had their own style, and he had his own characteristics, being a cat’s paw and winning from chaos.
Following the lead of Piglet, the two came to a cheap-looking pub. Perhaps this type of place would be safer now; at least it matched with their dirty clothes.
Grandpa Mobo had already arrived. It would be easy for an old man to look like he was in dire straits with just a little makeup. However, the old man’s eyes were very bright.
When he saw Wang Zheng, he stared at Wang Zheng with his eyes bright and sized him up for a while. “Our family… I will leave the young master in your care. Mr. Wang, after this crisis ends, the Julian family will definitely thank you generously!”
Piglet did not agree. “Grandpa Mobo, it’s not like this. Big Brother, he is very powerful. He can help us!”
There was a loving expression on Mobo’s face. Obviously, the old man saw Piglet as his own grandson. At this age, the only reason why one would not relax could only be family. Otherwise, there was no need for Mobo to stubbornly carry this burden on his shoulders.
“Young Master, let me handle the small matters. Mr. Wang, I think you probably understand the current situation. You won’t be able to help. I just hope that you can take care of the young master during this time.”
Wang Zheng smiled, and just looked at Mobo silently.
The old man was obviously also a person with power and influence. He could not handle such a look. “Mr. Wang, what do you mean by this?”
“Mr. Mobo, how long do you think the Julian family can last?”
“The Julian family is one of the three great chief figures of Maklou. It is deeply rooted, and even if it is the Bill family, don’t think…”
Wang Zheng waved his hand. “Mr. Mobo, please don’t talk big anymore. The direct line of the Julian family is almost all dead. Your only foreign aid is the Milky Way Alliance. But now, the Milky Way Alliance is refraining from attacking for fear of harming innocents.”
When Wang Zheng said this, it was obvious that he had his considerations. Even a “novice” like him was being used. This meant that they were not playing cards according to common sense. He could only say that the situation was even worse than expected.
