70: What are you doing!
“Name: Xiao Yun
Affiliation: Haibei City Branch, Yunhai Province, Dragon Country
Total Matches: 2
Evacuation Rate: 100%
Value Brought Out: 2511.33k
Match Records: Hidden
Rank: Black Iron 5”
“Hmm? Why hasn’t my rank increased?”
Seeing his GTI panel, Xiao Yun was a bit puzzled.
He had brought out such valuable goods; even if they didn't directly promote him to Platinum Diamond, they should at least raise him a few small ranks, right?
Why was he still Black Iron 5 after two successful evacuations?
“There’s a delay in GTI combat records; ranks need to be manually reviewed by the backend,” Liu Shihhan explained from the side.
“Oh, I see. That’s good then; I thought there was a bug.”
Xiao Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to walk towards the Exchange, he saw Liu Shihhan standing beside him, arms crossed, staring intently at him.
“What’s wrong?” Xiao Yun asked, puzzled.
“Xiao Yun, do you know how great a thing you’ve done?”
“Great? What’s great? I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”
“See, I knew you wouldn’t know!”
“What do you mean? Do you think I’m great just because I taught you some forbidden zone tricks?”
“Of course not that!”
Liu Shihhan sighed.
It seemed Xiao Yun had no idea of the value of the big red item he had brought out this time.
Liu Shihhan even had reason to suspect that Xiao Yun, who usually didn't pay attention in class, might not even know its price!
He wouldn’t think that this blade server was just a small item worth a few hundred thousand or a few million, would he?
Otherwise, if he knew the value of this item, he definitely wouldn't be so calm.
“Let’s talk somewhere else.”
Liu Shihhan grabbed Xiao Yun’s arm and forcibly dragged him to a corner.
The lighting here was dim; they could only vaguely see each other’s facial outlines when facing each other.
“Xiao Yun, you brought out a blade server! Aren’t you excited at all?”
“I am excited! Where do you see that I’m not excited?” Xiao Yun laughed.
“...Oh, please. I think you completely don’t understand the value of this thing.”
With that, Liu Shihhan began to explain.
“You know about artificial intelligence, right? Which is what we call AI now.”
“Although AI has developed rapidly in recent years, it has now entered a bottleneck period.”
“The computing power provided by ordinary computers can no longer keep up with the speed of AI’s progress. Therefore, what currently limits AI development is not technological level, but hardware computing power.”
“And the blade server you just brought out happens to be able to make up for this part.”
“If this thing gets to the Academy of Sciences, our Dragon Country’s AI technology will definitely usher in a leapfrog development!”
Liu Shihhan spoke eloquently.
Xiao Yun was immediately confused; was this blade server so powerful?
Just a black lump, and its impact on the world was so great?
Although he could tell that Liu Shihhan’s words contained some exaggeration.
After all, to develop AI technology, how could one blade server be enough?
Nevertheless, he immediately understood the importance of this big red material to the real world.
“How do you know all this? Does someone in your family work at the Academy of Sciences?” Xiao Yun asked, puzzled.
At the same time, he thought to himself, if that were the case, it would be convenient.
After all, he was worried about a pile of big red items in his safe box but had no channel to sell them to the Academy of Sciences.
“Dummy, this is all written in textbooks! I told you to study properly, didn’t I?” Liu Shihhan said helplessly.
“However, if you want to lease the blade server to the Academy of Sciences, my family can help you.”
“You mean this thing can be leased?”
“Of course. It’s such a valuable item; selling it directly would be a loss, wouldn’t it? It’s usually leased to the Academy of Sciences. I remember the price is 1.2 million a year, which is exactly one hundred thousand a month.”
“So that’s how 1.2 million is calculated!” Xiao Yun was immediately surprised.
He had always been curious about how the value of materials was calculated when evacuating with such a big red item.
So the 1.2 million for the blade server wasn’t the selling price, but the price for a one-year lease!
But thinking about it, that was normal.
After all, if it were sold normally, this thing would be astronomically expensive.
“Hey! What are you two doing sneaking around in there!”
Just as Xiao Yun was pondering.
A strong beam of a flashlight suddenly shone into the corner.
And a police officer then appeared.
“A single man and woman, don’t mess around out here; there are cameras everywhere!” The officer seemed to realize something and immediately turned off the light.
Xiao Yun awkwardly walked out of the alley, while Liu Shihhan found it amusing, a smile on her face.
“I’m sorry,” Xiao Yun quickly apologized.
Explaining at this point was useless; leaving quickly was the best option.
“Wait, you are... Oh! You are that Xiao Yun!” The officer immediately recognized him.
And Xiao Yun, upon seeing him, also felt that this person looked familiar.
“You’re that Eagle?”
“Yes, yes, that’s me.” Eagle chuckled, not expecting to catch Xiao Yun here.
“Speaking of which, you’re really fierce. I don’t know how you did it in that match; you used some kind of item and directly blew me up! Haha!”
As Eagle laughed, Xiao Yun felt a chill down his spine.
Wasn't this person Wang Qiang’s teammate from before? He didn’t expect him to be a police officer.
He had killed them in that match; this person must be holding a grudge.
Look at how he’s laughing now; it’s completely unnatural!
“Luck, just luck.”
“Oh, come on, how is that luck? Who would have thought that a high school student like you would be so formidable! Oh, we have to admit we’re getting old.” Eagle patted Xiao Yun’s shoulder, praising him with an exaggerated tone.
“And I didn’t expect your girlfriend to be so beautiful. But if you want to make out, don’t come to places like this. Oh, you earned so much money today, why don’t you just get a room?”
Hearing this, Xiao Yun’s face turned green.
He was afraid that Liu Shihhan next to him would get angry and directly confront Eagle.
However, what he didn’t expect was that Liu Shihhan was covering her mouth, secretly laughing, not looking angry at all.
“Let you keep annoying me; now you’re getting punished!” Liu Shihhan nudged Xiao Yun with her elbow, a look of schadenfreude on her face.
“Alright, Miss Liu, say a few words for me!”
“It’s okay, it’s puberty, Uncle understands~” Eagle deliberately drew out his words, his playful tone a stark contrast to his attire.
“However, puppy love is still not allowed. I must report this matter to your Haicheng No. 1 High School.”
“How do you know I’m from Haicheng No. 1 High School?”
“Li Wenzhe told me, remember?”
Only after Eagle mentioned it did Xiao Yun recall this.
It’s over!
It’s completely over!
If this rumor spread, how could he face his teachers?
“Uncle...”
Just then, Liu Shihhan also stepped forward.
Her eyes were unusually firm, as if she had made some decision, and then she slowly spoke.
“You must, you must report this to the school!”
