Chapter 1257 The Burden of Fame

Although the other party asked the question with a smile, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Krupp's back.

The Nan family cheated me! This was the first thought that came to his mind.

However, Mrs. Jia doesn't like to be mysterious. Anyway, the other party will react sooner or later, so there is no need for her to be so stingy.

She smiled and said, "You don't have to think about other aspects. On the mineral planet, you used a portable terminal to read the memory!"

"It turns out to be artificial intelligence!" Krupp reacted, still a little embarrassed for a moment.

He clearly knew that the other party had artificial intelligence, so why was he still so careless?

After the mystery was solved, he was about to face the other party's doubts. After hesitating, he still tried to convince others with reason.

"This matter is my fault, but I don't think that a small offense requires a magic weapon as compensation."

"I spent two billion to purchase this stone... which is more or less representative of my feelings."

He didn't exaggerate his purchase price either... What a joke, his portable terminal has artificial intelligence!

Mrs. Jia looked at him expressionlessly, "Then why didn't you make it clear then?"

Krupp sighed, "If I raised the issue at that time, wouldn't it offend your organization again? It would be better to deny it directly."

Oh my god, since he reached the highest level, when has he ever spoken in such a low voice?

Mrs. Jia said calmly, "No matter what, deception is also an offense... What do you think?"

When Krupp heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief - the other party's words didn't seem to mean a big fight.

However, he still nodded and answered cautiously, "I am willing to compensate...well, the price must be within a reasonable range."

"Forget it," the old lady waved her hand and said lightly, "We are not people who care about everything."

"A few suggestions, I hope you can do it... Can the details of our dealings be kept confidential?"

This was a gag order, which was barely a legitimate request, but it was also suspected of being an insult to the Supreme Being.

——The ceiling of the empire is already there. If you want to say something or do something, do you still need someone else’s guidance?

But Krupp took a deep breath and nodded hastily, "Senior, don't worry, I will definitely do it!"

"Then go ahead," Mrs. Jia waved her hand and spoke with a half-smile.

"Don't let it fall into our hands again, otherwise, at least the magic weapon will not be saved!"

"Understood," Krupp nodded and left the starship. For a moment, he felt a little cold on his back.

Isn’t this a fussy person? Fortunately, I finally passed this level.

When the officials of Kunhaixing discovered that a starship with a suspected digital phantom appeared in the surrounding area, the starship had already disappeared.

Qu Jianlei and his party discussed it and decided to go back to Sky Hook Star to rest for a while.

This time I stayed on the Mineral Star for nearly three months, and everything I wanted to test was tested. Now it’s time to settle down.

In particular, Qu Jianlei has developed the octopus skin talisman, which is absolutely as powerful as the top ones.

However, the success rate was not high. He planned to make further calculations and collect enough samples before conducting experiments.

Moreover, the matter of alchemy should also be put on the agenda.

Before, he was just thinking about it alone, but now with Xizhao's help, it's just... two people thinking about it.

However, although Xizhao knew less about alchemy, he had enough knowledge.

And as an elf with spiritual enlightenment talent, it has a strong sense of most medicinal properties.

The latter point is what Qu Jianlei lacks the most. He can't even match the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials in the two worlds.

After returning to Skyhook, ship 1314 did not land, and everyone directly activated the teleportation array.

After all, although this starship has been modified, it is obviously exposed to public view again.

Qu Jianlei and the others believed that it was time for the team to show off in front of others, otherwise it would not have been so high-profile a while ago.

But since we need to take a rest, it’s better not to be discovered, so as not to disturb everyone’s peace.

Duogan didn't know that this group of people also mastered the means of teleportation - Xizhao's mouth was not that big.

After she experienced the "near-earth jump", she simply couldn't describe her feelings.

However, unlike others, she guessed the truth behind the teleportation.

"This should be a method of the divine system, not the same theory as the leap, right?"

In fact, many people in Qu Jianlei's team have thought of this possibility.

Not to mention the "near-Earth" jump, even a real jump in space, can the physical body withstand it?

During the ordinary jump process, at least a B-level awakener can withstand the force of space tearing at that time!

You know, it's not just about the physical body, there's also powerful starship protection outside - even small ships can't jump!

But even though everyone had guessed it, they all tacitly agreed not to mention it.

That is, Duo Gan just joined the team and asked stupidly.

"Why are you..." Mrs. Jia gave her a helpless look, "Don't you think we have enough limelight?"

"I understand, thank you," Dogan nodded and no longer dwelled on the issue.

After being away for so long, everything was as usual on Skyhook Star, and everyone quickly got into the mood.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed, and everyone's condition has been adjusted in place.

Qu Jianlei drew some improved talismans and successfully refined the "Shen Yang Pill".

This elixir can quickly replenish the consumed mental power, and it has mild properties.

The empire also has pills and injections that stimulate mental power, but compared with the nourishing pill, the methods are relatively crude and more similar to stimulants.

Overdosing on pills or injections similar to those from the Empire may cause irreversible damage, and even if you are not injured, you will have to rest for a long time.

In these two aspects, the effectiveness of the Nourishing Pill far exceeds the former.

The most important thing is that the Nourishing Pill also has an improved version of the pill called the Bushen Pill, which can repair the injured soul to a certain extent.

If this kind of elixir could be developed, it could even fill the gap in the empire in this regard.

However, the refining of this kind of elixir is very difficult. Xizhao said that even in the world of immortality, Bushen Pills are very precious.

Qu Jianlei is not in a hurry. Many things cannot be accomplished overnight. It is important to have a peaceful mind.

What makes him a little depressed is that the pills to improve his cultivation have not been available for a long time.

Xizhao even asserted that it was almost impossible to refine such pills in this world - spiritual energy was forbidden here.

Unless he wants to refine pills to improve his inner breath cultivation, that is still possible.

But that was from the Awakened System, and Qu Jianlei had no interest in it—it wasn’t the right path at all, right?

Moreover, the empire has corresponding materials to assist cultivation. In addition to various crystals and treasures, there are also some finished medicines.

However, those resources are relatively precious, and it is difficult for those with poor financial resources to afford them.

In other words, as long as a powerful family is willing to spend money, it is not difficult to push an awakened person with not too bad qualifications to A level.

Zi Jiu Xian really cares about the empire and suggested that the boss research related drugs.

"Although the awakened system has shortcomings, the main force fighting the star beasts in the future will still be the awakened ones."

"If we can develop relatively cheap drugs that can quickly improve our cultivation, it will be of great strategic significance."

Qu Jianlei replied coldly, "That will ruin the business monopolized by others. Don't have too high expectations for the character of capital."

He is not a cold-blooded person, but if he has not learned this lesson in two lifetimes, then his life will really be in vain.

But Zi Jiuxian is a bit stubborn. She believes that after research, she doesn’t need to promote it, as long as it can be used when needed.

Qu Jianlei had nothing to do with her. The key was that people with such sentiments were indeed rare.

Just because of the sunset, Bentley no longer has to study those ores, and Professor Zi's assistant has nothing to do.

So Qu Jianlei said, I can help calculate the formula, but the next specific operation must be completed by you.

Zi Jiuxian said there was no problem, but a few days later she was dumbfounded, "This possibility...is it calculated at the million level?"

She is doing research herself and has a good understanding of the complexity of raw material ratios, but at the million level... Oh my God!

Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at her and was too lazy to answer - Do you think the results I developed before were so easy?

Fortunately, the team has a lot of robots in reserve, and Xiao Hu coordinates the arrangements, which can greatly improve the speed of experiments.

Otherwise, if we really have to manually deploy and record, the workload will be overwhelming.

But even so, the budget for the experiment alone is measured in billions.

Zijiuxian was really frightened by these two things. Fortunately, Mrs. Jia showed her support in time.

"After all, it is an independent project. If you can complete it, you can leave your own name in the history of the empire."

Dogan was a little moved when he heard this, "You just do your research, I don't have enough money... I do!"

She has achieved the highest level for nearly three hundred years, and her family is extremely rich. The last time Qu Jianlei came to visit her, he did not touch her money.

The nutritional supplement curled his lips when he heard it, and said to himself that I used to think that the money was enough, but I was taught a solid lesson.

With such a boss in the stall, you will never know how much he can spend money!

In addition to these restrictions, many of the rare materials she needs to use cannot be purchased by Skyhook.

In addition, others also had some spells that needed to be tested, so everyone discussed and decided to go to the inner circle again.

The only person who regrets this decision is Yuanyuan.

She has gradually become accustomed to using spiritual energy to temper her body, and is quite addicted to it. She feels that if everything goes well, she may reach the next level within five years.

So she even wanted to apply to stay alone to guard the foundation here.

However, her idea was rejected by Qu Jianlei.

"Our team spirit does not allow you to be left to practice alone. There must be someone to respond and even protect you."

"But if someone discovers that it is a digital phantom, even if there is only one Supreme Being left behind, it may not be safe."

"This is the burden of fame, and no one can escape it."
