Chapter 38 The Call of the Liver
Having overcome the countless expected torments so easily, Ji Jue looked at his own achievements and could not help but smile with joy. While he was excited, he also could not help feeling regret and sorrow.

Even considering Ji Jue's ability, such creation can be called incredible and fantastic. However, compared with Professor Ye's operation just experienced, it can only be said to be full of mistakes and omissions, and it is a poor imitation.

They are not even on the same level, and I was even left behind so far that I couldn't even see the exhaust.

But so what?
The ugly ones are also cute, and the small ones are also powerful!
When absorbing the spiritual essence after the fragments self-destructed just now, he not only experienced the process and reasons of the previous fifty-one failures with his own soul and perception, but also personally experienced Professor Ye's terrifying skills that seemed to be a gift from nature!
It’s as if he has become the true creator.

All changes rise from the furnace... You only need to stretch out your hand to grab whatever you want, and you can recreate the world with a flip of your hand.

The sudden realization is so intoxicating.

But more importantly, it was a more thorough and precious experience than any hands-on instruction. In just this short moment, it was like a lighthouse suddenly rising in the long night, pointing out the way and direction for Ji Jue who was still spinning in the same place.

What he had to do was to run forward with all his might while the memory of the light was still fresh in his mind!
Once again, picking up the fragments.

Without regretting the work he had just completed, Ji Jue drew out the spare spiritual essence storage in his watch and began to engrave it again! With his other hand, he directly flipped the huge copper book next to the operating table to the back.

While his realization had not yet dissipated and his memories were still clear, this time he wanted to try to engrave the emblem and totem of another of the Twelve Great Virtues.

It controls the birth and annihilation of all energy, silence and explosion, and the supreme goodness of elements and storms.

--【entropy】!
This went on until half past twelve in the night.

This was the sixth time Ye Chun came to urge him to go home after get off work. Amidst such earnest words as 'it's time to rest', 'touch me for a while longer', 'it's good enough, it's very good enough, many big guys nowadays are not as good as you', 'stop being so cocky', Ji Jue was still not satisfied, looked back every three steps, rode on the calf and left the workshop.

After working overtime for more than five hours, I felt that I had gained more than the previous long practice, even dozens or hundreds of times more. Before that ray of fresh insight was completely lost, Ji Jue had tried his best to retain some experience and more experience of failure.

In the end, the totem of entropy was never fully depicted.

In the middle, he felt several times that he was just one step away from success, but later on, the harder he tried, the more wrong the direction seemed, giving him a kind of awkward feeling of trying to draw a tiger but ending up with a dog instead of a tiger.

He knew that if he kept grinding, he might not gain much.

After thoroughly digesting the experience package from Professor Ye, he hummed a song and whistled, bought a bowl of fried noodles at a roadside stall, and without hesitation... set out on the journey home.

Wash up and go to bed quickly, and continue rolling tomorrow!
"Grass!"

And in the dark, in the distance, in the van that was faintly following in the traffic, the middle-aged man Qi Qin holding a video recorder stood there in a daze, watching Ji Jue return home.

incredible.

What the fuck are you doing?
Running to the professor's factory to screw in screws until midnight, isn't it time for anyone to relax and have some fun? Damn, as a college student, it's fine if you don't go to bars, flirt with girls, or get points, but you should just give the big sister behind you a call and make an appointment to have some HAPPY!

I have my camera ready, what the hell are you taking pictures of me doing work-study?!

Did you guys come here to see this?!

The man who had been following Ji Jue all day was about to feel sick. This was totally unreasonable - the girl selling fried noodles was so big, but he didn't even look at her! Even when she was trying to make an extra two dollars from you, you refused to add an egg!

Are you still human?
Don’t be anxious, don’t be anxious, don’t be impatient, only patience can bring results, only by waiting can you catch the hot stuff.

Qi Qin took a deep breath to calm his irritable mood. He finally waited until the light in Ji Jue's room was finally turned off before he got out of the car to pee and go to the toilet. Then he bought a bowl of instant noodles.

Okay, it’s finally quiet.

At least I can get a good night's sleep.

He closed his eyes.

At the same late night, some people couldn't sleep all night.

"I hold—"

In the silent factory area, Ye Chun, who had just washed up, was wrapping his hair to dry, yawning and tidying up the workshop. However, when he reached out to pick up the scraps on the table, he couldn't help but freeze in place.

Like being struck by lightning.

Ye Chun dared to swear that he had never opened his eyes so wide in his life!

Under Ji Jue's destruction, the irregular fragment had already shown a faint crack, but at this moment, there was a layer of extremely faint pure white phantom light flowing on it. After turning off the lights, it glowed dimly in the moonlight.

What made her even more unbelievable was that on that... on that place that was less than the size of a palm, someone had used a crazy level of effort and an obsessive-compulsive disorder level that could send someone to the hospital immediately to carve more than twenty emblems of the Supreme Good!

It’s all transformation!

When she came to check this afternoon, Ji Jue was still a complete newbie who had just come into contact with the furnace and didn't know how to use it or anything. As a result, in just four or five hours, he had actually surpassed the progress that would have made other apprentices suffer day and night for years.

What's even more terrifying is...

Through the slight traces on it, she could vaguely recognize the style of her aunt in her early years?

Especially the last few totem emblems, the arc at the end is completely my aunt's own special signature... Even if you learn from it, there is no need to learn this as well, right? !
What are you here to learn?
Is it fake?
"Aunt, please go home soon."

She suppressed the urge to scream and dialed the phone: "There's a pervert!"

"...Normal." After understanding what happened, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone. But in the end, he just gave a calm evaluation, as if he was not surprised at all.

Professor Ye said, "Just let him continue. Don't worry about anything else."

The call was hung up.

Only Ye Chun was left in silence, staring at the fragments.

After a long time, I looked back and saw my tiny reflection in the glass. After leaving behind the fragments, I couldn't help but sigh.

"Damn it, monster."
.
"What the hell?"

In the same night, in the old bedroom, Ji Jue, who had just closed his eyes, suddenly jumped up from the bed.

Finally I found that something seemed to be wrong.

During the day, I was so focused on my alchemy skills that I almost didn't notice...

Under the moonlight, he raised his right hand and put it in front of his eyes, carefully and solemnly looking at the faintly golden number [1] on the dial.

He narrowed his eyes in disbelief: "Is there any movement on this progress bar?"

If his memory served him correctly, in the morning, there was almost no other color on top of this [1], but now, in the corners of the top, there seemed to be some pure gold that could not be ignored.

If I have to put it simply, it's like a certain slow-moving downloading software with a blue icon suddenly started moving.

Although the speed is still 1Kb or 2Kb, at least it is no longer "resource unresponsive" or "not open for download according to relevant laws"...

From 0% to 1%, we once again achieved a great breakthrough from zero to one!
Small and weak, but so conspicuous.

"Alas!!!"

Ji Jue couldn't help but cheer: "Yeah!!!"

But why?

Could it be that my progress in alchemy has led to the growth of my abilities? But that doesn't make sense. When I first started learning alchemy the day before yesterday, this watch didn't even work.

He lay back on the bed, carefully recalling what had happened throughout the day, and the last scene that emerged before his eyes was the scene of himself reaching out to extract the remaining essence and spiritual essence from the self-destructive fragments.

In the end, all the essence was consumed by his own abilities!

"No, bro, are you serious?!"

He sensed the symbol moving lightly within his soul and could not understand it.

Can you only grow by absorbing the essence of alchemical items?
How come this crappy ability is just like the character in some card-drawing mobile game? It's useless to grind dungeons and kill monsters. Do you have to use other equipment and characters to feed them dog food to level up?
After reaching the maximum level, do I need to eat a few more copies of the same character to break through?
Don't wait until the final enhancement to +11 or +12 and then give me an equipment probability damage?

Ji Jue was about to despair of this world where one had to spend money to become stronger. Suddenly he wanted to bang his head against the wall. Wasn’t it said that real legends weren’t like this?
But inexplicably... what appeared before my eyes was the entire warehouse that made me despair during the day, and even the waste dump that was so exaggerated that it was big enough to bury more than a dozen of me.

If I remember correctly, Professor Ye seemed to say that those useless things were given to himself for practice, right?

At that moment, Ji Jue lost all desire to sleep.

When he looked back in the direction of the workshop, his eyes were already burning with fire, as if he saw countless young ladies wearing very little clothing, flirting with him and inviting him to come and play...

What garbage dump?!
That's the experience points that have been wasted!

There was only one word left in my mind.

--【liver】!
From that day on, the stalker's nightmare finally came.

He didn’t close his eyes until after he submitted the report at around 2 a.m. Then, at 5:30 the next morning, he discovered… Ji Jue’s grandson had gone out!

He didn't even change his clothes or wash his hair. He just washed his face, brushed his teeth, and bought a bun at the door.

Then, head straight to the factory!
The way they were rushing to get the free eggs, fearing that they would miss out if they were late, made Qi Qin feel that his worldview had been destroyed in some way - No, what are you doing?
Brother, why don’t you sleep a little longer? I’ll have to sleep too if you don’t!

Why are you getting up so early and running to the factory?
I even bought some coffee, but I'm so eager to be a slave?!

In the wind, a distant voice was heard...

The desperate middle-aged man stood there in a daze.

He is laughing!

Ji Jue turned the throttle of the small motorcycle to the bottom, grinning, and galloped in the dawn light.

A new day, a new beginning.

I can happily screw in screws again!
