You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 37
Chapter 37: Comrade, No Sleeping Here!
“Didn’t you just get back from Mobei?!”
Su Qin’an smiled: “Old Liu, not bad! I didn’t know you could retort. ”
“Oh, don’t mention it! ”
Liu Qiming said speechlessly: “I was going down in an elevator with a group of people, and then this guy appeared out of nowhere and insisted we let them go down first, so their Fengzi could go up. Something about needing to rush to a shoot…”
“Absolutely insane! ”
Xie Yingqing gave a brief assessment: “If everyone in the entertainment industry is like that, it’s no wonder they say it’s a mess! ”
“Indeed, you’re right…”
Liu Qiming fell into thought: “It’s really time to straighten out the atmosphere in that Entertainment Department…”
As he spoke, he made a phone call and chatted with the Entertainment Department.
The gist was that the Entertainment Department Head first scolded Liu Qiming for calling at 2 AM, then Liu Qiming vaguely described what had just happened and asked the Entertainment Department to clean up the situation.
The Entertainment Department Head was silent for a moment, then grumbled and hung up, going to issue relevant instructions.
“Why didn’t Minister Liu mention Fengfeng’s name? ”
Xie Yingqing asked: “He acted like that, and you still held back? ”
“It was just an elevator, and didn’t I go first in the end? ”
Liu Qiming smiled: “It’s great to be able to correct one’s mistakes, especially since cutting off someone’s livelihood is like killing their parents… If this cleanup of the Entertainment Department is effective, why would I want to cut off their livelihood? ”
“By the way, how did you get back? ”
Liu Qiming asked: “Was it from Mobei…”
“Controllable nuclear fusion succeeded, completely. ”
Su Qin’an smiled: “As long as you give the order, this thing can be promoted nationwide. The Sixth-Generation Fighter Jets and Single-Soldier Exoskeletons I mentioned before can also be put on the agenda. ”
“Really? Why didn’t I hear anything from Li Weimin? ”
“Him…”
…
Mobei, Controllable Nuclear Fusion Research Base, Li Weimin groggily got out of bed, preparing to go to the institute to take care of some things.
Near the toilet, he vaguely saw someone lying on the ground…
On closer inspection, he found it was Sun Ruilei.
“I… oh! ”
Tripped by Sun Ruilei, he also fell to the ground and fell asleep…
Ten minutes later, Zhang Xian supported himself against the wall as he walked out of the room.
“Hm? ”
He saw two figures on the ground not far away: “Comrade? Comrade? Sleeping isn’t allowed here! ”
“Ah! ”
Tripped by Li Weimin, he also fell asleep…
…
That night, Su Qin’an finally heard the System’s voice after a long time.
［Detected Host completed large-scale promotion of controllable nuclear fusion. Reward now available: Experience Points, three levels of Cultivation Base, one Subsystem Binding slot. ］
［New Quest issued: Within six months, raise China’s comprehensive national strength to number one globally. Reward: Experience Points, six levels of Cultivation Base, three sets of Nantianmen Plan implementation schemes. ］
［Rewards are ready. Requires watching an advertisement to claim. Watch now? ］
Su Qin’an felt there was too much information; he needed a moment.
This damn System, even rewards need ads? What a letdown!
Nantianmen Plan… the name alone has Uncle Sam on high alert. If it’s really implemented…
And Subsystem Binding…
What is it?
As if sensing Su Qin’an’s confusion, the System’s voice rang out.
［Subsystem Binding recipients will know of this System’s existence and possess all the Host’s rights within the System, receiving fifty percent of the Host’s rewards. ］
Su Qin’an asked: “Will there be any harm to the binding recipient? ”
［No. When the Subsystem Binding recipient is harmed, the Host may use their authority to transfer the damage to themselves. ］
This is good stuff; of course, I have to get one for my wife!
［Host, do you choose to watch the advertisement to claim the reward? If no choice is made within one minute, the reward will disappear…］
［Starting countdown, 60…］
“Watch! ”
Su Qin’an said: “Play it for me! ”
Su Qin’an felt his vision go black, and then the small house around him disappeared.
When his vision returned, a Star Sea appeared before him.
On the far left of the Star Sea were countless gigantic black holes, connected together, blocking the flow of the galaxy.
Outside the black holes was a fleet of extremely futuristic-looking black warships, equipped with various guns, cannons, and other weapons that Su Qin’an had never even seen before, or in the Experience Mall.
Most striking was that a flag’s design was engraved on these warships. Su Qin’an couldn’t make out the design, only that the flag was black and seemed to have a character on it.
Opposite them were silver-white warships, of a scale no less impressive than the black warships, similarly equipped with new weapons Su Qin’an couldn’t comprehend. Just looking at them made Su Qin’an feel like he might be torn apart.
And on both sides were numerous figures with immortal-like bearing and strange appearances standing proudly, each with powerful Cultivation Bases.
How powerful?
Yin Wanshan and the Seven Sword Immortals, the seven strongest cultivators in China.
The seven of them, plus Zhang Yundao, probably couldn’t even withstand the killing intent of these people!
These people’s Cultivation Bases had long surpassed Great Ascension Realm, reaching the legendary Breaking Void, Quasi-Saint, Saint Emperor Realm, and even higher!
“This…”
Su Qin’an was shocked and at a loss.
This combat power, just one person…
No, a single clone of any one of them could sweep across Earth!
But the advertisement also ended there.
Su Qin’an’s vision went black again, and the Star Sea, warships, and cultivators gradually disappeared, replaced by his and Xie Yingqing’s house.
“What was that just now? Those warships… and those powerful cultivators…”
For the first time, Su Qin’an found his heart beating this fast, surpassing even when he confessed to Xie Yingqing…
Especially those warships…
Su Qin’an felt that even with the System’s help, he probably wouldn’t reach that level in a few centuries.
［Congratulations, Host, on receiving your reward: Experience Points, three levels of Cultivation Base, one Subsystem Binding slot. Bind now? ］
“Bind, Xie Yingqing! ”
Next, it’s time to raise China’s comprehensive national strength to number one globally…
Six months, easily done!
China is already the world’s second-largest economy, number one in many fields, and not far from the top spot.
Six months, enough!
…
The next day, Liu Qiming was woken by a phone call.
It was from the Head of the Cyberspace Administration.
“Old Liu! Who did you offend? ”
As soon as Liu Qiming answered, he heard the Head of the Cyberspace Administration’s voice.
“What’s up? ” Liu Qiming was completely bewildered: “I haven’t even woken up yet, who could I have offended? ”
“Go look at Weibo; there are videos of you everywhere! Stuff about you fighting over an elevator… what happened? ”
“Huh? ”
Liu Qiming was instantly wide awake: “I fought with someone over an elevator? ”
“How the hell would I know who you fought with?! I’m asking you! ”
The other side shouted: “Go explain! A national figure being caught in this kind of thing, the impact is terrible! ”
