112: maze!

It was a sense of foreboding.

Ye Su stared at the scene before him, feeling as though he was about to touch something.

Taking a step forward might lead to great terror, or perhaps—tap…

Thus, unbeknownst to Mo Xiaoyu, Ye Su took a step forward, his foot already touching 'Ye Su'.

Instantly.

As if time flowed backwards.

Ye Su gained an additional perspective.

Global evolution, plants mutating, yet he himself was not among the first to Awaken.

The Suzhou and Hangzhou was a place of outstanding people and spiritual energy, where Quiet Rain emerged, her combat prowess ranking among the top in the entire nation.

She even disdained revealing where she had obtained the special Professional scroll back then.

Transcendence Master!

A profession capable of surpassing all limits!

It drew countless sidelong glances.

But time could not be reversed, and Ye Su could only watch with envy.

Afterwards.

The Rain Water solar term arrived, and 'he' finally Awakened. 'He' was overjoyed to gain power.

Finally, the sea demons landed, and 'he' came to contribute his share as a Professional.

Yet in the end—"So, you are Number 1?"

Ye Su murmured in his heart.

'Ye Su' vanished, replaced by a thread.

A thread concerning Transmigration, the present, the future, using letters as a bridge.

This thread ultimately coiled around Ye Su's wrist and faded into nothingness.

Invisible, intangible, yet it truly existed;

[Congratulations, Intelligence +1!]

Ye Su looked up.

It seemed that at this very moment, he comprehended the meaning of his Golden Finger.

"So it's not a predetermined script, but a maze!"

The Golden Finger was actually a maze.

Countless Ye Sus set out from one gate, some fast, some slow.

Whenever a dead end was encountered.

That 'Ye Su' would die, and before death, pass the information onward.

To be more specific.

In this maze, many Ye Sus were still searching for the correct path, but some 'Ye Su' had already reached a dead end.

Ye Su Number 1 died here.

Then.

Subsequent Ye Sus, the vast majority of them, would receive the letter he sent.

Would snatch the Transcendence Master profession from Quiet Rain.

And as for himself.

He currently didn't know which number he was.

Perhaps he would know at the moment of his death.

As for the letters, they were probably the true Golden Finger of the Transmigration!

"The future is unknown."

"Countless versions of me are striving."

"Continuously passing on information and hope."

"And then, there is—"

Ye Su looked at his wrist, recalling the 'Intelligence +1' from earlier;

"And then there is me, us. It all depends on you, right!"

Today's scene.

Was a bit sudden.

No…

It should be said it was inevitable.

The sea demon landing was no small event, and many Professionals died.

It was possible that the version of himself who didn't snatch this profession died here back then.

However.

In the future, during certain major events, perhaps he would encounter many such versions of himself.

Or perhaps, he would also become one among countless versions of himself…

Roar!

Suddenly, the heart ape roared.

Ye Su snapped back to reality.

Damn.

He had been affected by the pessimistic mood of death.

It should be said.

With the help of countless versions of himself, he should be the one guaranteed to win!

"Captain Ye, what's wrong?" Mo Xiaoyu seemed to sense Ye Su's unease and asked.

"It's nothing."

Ye Su smiled;

"Xiaoyu, we will win."

"Mm, we will win."

Mo Xiaoyu nodded.

This was just a momentary setback.

With less than a month of accumulation, Ye Su had not yet amassed a truly formidable momentum.

Faced with the overwhelming momentum of the sea clans, getting battered and bruised was normal.

"Let's go back."

"Mm."

The two of them then left.

This time, Ye Su didn't bid farewell to Cui Hu and directly took Mo Xiaoyu back to the Suzhou and Hangzhou.

---At the airport, it was still Zhuge Hu who came to pick them up.

"Captain Ye, welcome back." Zhuge Hu greeted with a smile.

"Mm, brief me on the current situation."

Ye Su said casually.

Zhuge Hu's heart skipped a beat;

Huh?

This time upon returning, Captain Ye seemed to have changed a bit.

But this was a good thing!

"The sea demon landing facing the Suzhou and Hangzhou will end a bit faster." Zhuge Hu said;

"And during this process, our Suzhou and Hangzhou-building speed hasn't stopped."

"Everything is progressing steadily."

"It's just…"

"It's just that news just came from the capital. The number of sea demon corpses this time is unimaginable. Regarding the situation with the potion formulas—"

Ye Su nodded.

Indeed.

The number of sea demons that died this time was incalculable.

Shipping these sea demon corpses to the Suzhou and Hangzhou, then having the Suzhou and Hangzhou process them into potions, clearly added an extra step.

However, giving out the potion formulas would be too unfair to the Suzhou and Hangzhou!

"Zhuge Hu, you negotiate with them yourself."

Ye Su said;

"Other cities, the capital or other cities, they must possess technologies we don't have."

"Trade using No. 1 and No. 2."

The formulas for No. 1 and No. 2 potions had already become commonplace in the new progression.

As of today, only a few days remained of the Rain Water solar term.

The next solar term would be Awakening of Insects.

It was likely that a true no. 4 potion would appear!

Therefore, No. 1 and No. 2 could be used as bargaining chips to trade away.

"Technologies we don't have?"

Zhuge Hu was puzzled.

The global Professional era had only been born for less than a month. Could there really be any new technologies that had already emerged?

"the capital had long since cracked the Spirit Medicine storage technology."

"Also, I suspect some cities already possess the technology to Breakthrough the blind box attributes of treasure chests and the jade tablet storage technology."

"Furthermore, we can also probe whether any Suzhou and Hangzhou has made achievements in researching Spirit Medicine cultivation."

"Zhuge Hu, put away that capital-harvesting approach. We need more foundational strength."

Ye Su said seriously.

A completely new system descending upon this world—could the technological revolution it brought be limited to just Strengthening Potions?

What a joke.

Once the progression advanced, technologies for forging exclusive weapons for Professionals might even be derived.

The Research Institutes established in various cities were precisely for this purpose!

"Alright, I understand." Zhuge Hu also became serious, a rare occurrence.

Ye Su had truly changed.

Previously, he focused on his own strength.

Now, he was intentionally nurturing his own faction.

Once a faction grew to a certain scale, every word and action would carry momentum!

It seemed.

This sea demon landing had ultimately stimulated Ye Su.

Zhuge Hu went to work in an excellent mood.

He increasingly felt that choosing Ye Su was the right decision.

His own value would surely be realized here.

After Zhuge Hu left, Ye Su took Mo Xiaoyu back to his home.

The two sat cross-legged.

"Mo Xiaoyu, I've been Cultivating on my own lately and haven't paid attention to you." Ye Su said;

"Now, you can tell me, do you have any confusion regarding Cultivation?"

Mo Xiaoyu's face lit up with joy.

She nodded repeatedly.
