Your Lord Has A Screw Loose?

Chapter 60: Chapter 60: Showdown, My Time is Coming

?

Time had flown by, and more than half a month had passed, Qin Muye could see that this chapter came every three days, perfectly fitting into 30 days, and the various situations had become more and more preposterous.

During these days, Qin Muye had experienced rescuing a certain retired second-in-command with a beautiful granddaughter. Unfortunately, this second-in-command's power wasn't as great as Qin Muye's, and Qin Muye didn't have Xiao Chen's absurd medical skills, so he was sent to the hospital.

There was also helping a beautiful single mother landlord drive away the gangsters, which was also a tough act to perform. Recently, due to issues with the Rose Bar and a certain Brother Wang, a crime crackdown had taken place, resulting in many criminal forces being dealt with, which meant there were no so-called thugs to be found.

If Qin Muye hadn't held a high position, he might not have had such a significant impact. Just because of something Qin Muye said back then, some people who should have been involved with him ended up sitting in jail instead.

Especially a certain gang queen, who was also part of Xiao Chen's harem and supposed to have interactions with him, but because the crackdown had concluded, she was already in prison.

This caused the current plotline to stall, and they could only get her out to perform a rigid scene with Qin Muye.

If there were parts for her in the future, they would have to trouble her to come out again.

As for Wang Shenxing, he had completely ignored the plot system, which after all, only provided plot points as reminders, but it didn't matter much if one didn't act on them.

On the contrary, due to the transfer of the Main Character Aura, he had been surrounded by a continuous streak of romances, all with female leads, each capable of overhearing his innermost thoughts, which annoyed him to no end. Eventually, he ran off and mixed with Qin Muye, spending every day in meditation and study.

As for Qin Muye's Dumbing Aura and Taunting Aura, they pretty much had no effect on the people around him.

I mean, how could a core plot of showing off, face-slapping, and romancing beautiful women possibly intersect with a group of researchers?

If he went to the red-light district or clubs, maybe he could encounter troublemakers or rich second generations provoked by the two auras, but how could that happen in a scientific research institution? There wasn't any plot intersection whatsoever.

So, in reality, Qin Muye had long since stepped out of the original plotline of Asura Dragon King's Trip to the Flower City.

Forget about mission rewards, being able to get a basic skill would be good enough. With how perfunctory his plot completion was, we could say he was skimming through as much as he possibly could.

No wonder it's called a plot world; you can't have any clever maneuvers.

However, Qin Muye wasn't thinking too much about it. For him, perfectly completing all plots was impossible; he wasn't Xiao Chen, without the corresponding main character treatment.

If he really followed the plot, he would most likely end up dead in a ditch.

Magic is very powerful, but it's not omnipotent. On the contrary, cooperating with Wen Country was the best option.

"The prototype of Intelligent Magic has been completed; the follow-up will be about assistance and reinforcement with magic power, and this needs to be finished as soon as possible," Qin Muye said.

"Yes, Scholar sir, but isn't this a bit too fast?" a researcher said somewhat helplessly.

They had all become Mages, capable of replacing sleep with meditation to restore energy, but they still paled in comparison to Qin Muye.

His abilities in learning and research were just too outrageous.

This was quite normal; his Learning Ability and Academic Research talents had been

sublimated, with their effects increased by at least fivefold.

Therefore, the researchers in the lab simply couldn't keep up with Qin Muye's train of thought. But there were limitations, of course; they only existed in the realm of learning and research. In other areas, well, they really fell short.

"Too slow. I've already started to feel the world and fate rejecting me. At most, I only have 7 days left before I'm expelled from this world. If we can't perfect Intelligent Magic within these 7 days, given your current progress, I'm afraid it would take at least another 5 to 10 years to complete it."

"I think that might not be too long for Wen Country, but in terms of variables, it's already enough. Once this leaks out, you can imagine the consequences."

Upon hearing what Qin Muye said, all the researchers present were shocked. They hadn't expected Qin Muye to encounter such a predicament.

They did not refute Qin Muye's statement; what he said was true. Under the rule-like endowments of Talent from the "Lord Era," paired with an impressive 61 points of Knowledge, he indeed could spare them 5 to 10 years' worth of efforts.

In this regard, having a larger number of people wouldn't solve the issue. The collective IQ of ten thousand low-intelligence individuals might exceed that of an ordinary person, but that doesn't mean all of that combined intellect can be fully utilized. Each individual is just that, an individual.

Qin Muye's IQ might only be average, but with the boost from his Lord Talent, he had achieved the current results.

"I will immediately ask the higher-ups to send over a team. We must perfect Intelligent Magic within these 7 days," a research supervisor said through gritted teeth.

The entire Intelligent Magic project was overseen by Qin Muye. He could do without them and take some time to refine the prototype into a finished product, but they couldn't. Without Qin Muye, they would need at least a tenfold increase in manpower, material, and financial resources to succeed.

Nobody thought that Qin Muye was deceiving them to get more funding. The Intelligent Magic project was highly valued by the upper echelons of Wen Country, as not everyone has enough Talent. With Intelligent Magic, it's entirely possible to bridge the gap between people's natural talents.

Moreover, not all of Wen Country's high-level officials could last another 5 to 10 years, both in terms of life expectancy and politically.

If they were to step down by then, people would quickly forget them, and it's not certain they would reap the benefits of the magic's success. Hence, the support rate for this project is quite

high.

Furthermore, the expenses were not large. Most of the costs were related to the maintenance and care of equipment, while material costs were relatively lower.

Thus, what was needed more was manpower, not resources.

"Alright, no rest for the next 7 days. Meditate if you need to, but make sure there's a rotation. As long as it's not fatal, push to the limit," Qin Muye set the tone for the upcoming week.

He had already memorized all the information on the first and second eras of reform, yes, just memorized without in-depth study, relying on rote learning.

Electronic devices and such are not treasures and can't even display their names, let alone be put into an item bar. Therefore, you can't take them with you; you have to memorize the

content.

The amount was truly vast, and it almost overwhelmed Qin Muye.

Once back, he would study it slowly. The focus now was on the third era of reform, the

information age, and the core of it was his Intelligent Magic.

In other words, not only did he obtain the remnants of the first two eras, but he also acquired

one of the cores of the third era: computing and information technology.

This was the essence of Intelligent Magic; otherwise, how could he have targeted this project immediately?

After all, it was a project with multiple gains, and playing it smart was a necessity, all for the

sake of survival.

But the upper echelons of Wen Country were no fools. It was only after Qin Muye gave up the inheritances of the Archer and the Knight, as well as all his Death System Magic, that he

succeeded.
