“That won’t do!”
“How could I enjoy without you both today?” Huang Zi Long refused.!
Liu Si Yu’s heart skipped a beat. She glanced at Zhao Yu, guessing that Huang
Zi Long wanted to use Zhao Yu for entertainment purpose.
She was reluctant and was about to refuse, but Qiao Bing Bing whispered to her, “Si Yu, let’s go. Those invited by Huang Zi Long are either rich or n.o.ble. If we can become friends with one of the young ladies, they might introduce us to more influential circles…”
Huang Zi Long pressed on, “You once said you owed me a favor for taking you to the hospital. Have you forgotten so soon?!”
Liu Si Yu looked at Zhao Yu again. She felt a bit annoyed, thinking her good intentions might has taken for granted.
Since Zhao Yu did not spoke for himself, she did not care about him anymore.
While Huang Zi Long was making a call, Zhao Yu did not intentionally eavesdrop, his attention was constantly outside the window.
Throughout the journey, there were frequent fights outside, like a repeating footage, almost non-stop.
The others in the car seemed used to it and ignored everything.
Moreover, Zhao Yu noticed many people trying to rob any pa.s.sing vehicles, but strangely, their car was never stopped or interrupted.
Zhao Yu finally has a full picture now.
It turned out that Huang Zi Long’s car was very custom made with modification. It was not only bulletproof but even its tires were explosion-proof. Although Zhao Yu could not understand its structure and theory behind it. He knew this car worth a million or even more.
Those who could afford such cars typically came from influential backgrounds, often having private armed forces. They were not targets for common thieves or criminals groups.
It truly was a chaotic world yet the society still function like the old days. With power, you are the King. Without it, You are a dog. Zhao Yu could not help shaking his head.
For safety, he decided he needed to establish his own private militia. Protecting himself was a priority.
Before returning back to University, Zhao Yu had not been idle.
With his base leveled up to level three on the moon, he had manage to directly feed knowledge into the brain like a code.
So, Zhao Yu was searching and a.n.a.lyzing all the information and knowledge to plot out a mind map and plans to achieve the original Zhao Yu last wish. Of course, the majority of them was related to weapons.
The contrast part might be it was not necessarily possible to create Level 2 or Level 3 weapons.
But level zero or one weapons would be easy. He just needed some initial funds and factories to manufacture the weapons.
After all, this body Zhao Yu owed no technological base at his disposal where he could instantly produce weapons.
To create any weapon, he would have to start from scratch by manual operation.
The most pressing issue was securing the initial funds!
While Zhao Yu was lost in thought, the car arrived at the gate.
Dozens of fully armed security surrounded the car for inspection.
Guns were prohibited inside the education area. Generally, students didn’t have the liberty to leave.
Huang Zi Long’s family was influential, rumored to be one of the school’s stakeholders. This allowed him to take others out with him.
For safety purpose, these security searched the vehicle, ensured there were no weapons, and verified that all four were students before letting them through.
Qiao Bing Bing couldn’t help but sigh, “This world has become so dangerous. It seems we need to find someone to back us up…”
Huang Zi Long smiled and turned to look at Liu Si Yu. Noted that she was deep in thought, he nodded.
Soon, the car arrived at the female dormitory.
The two girls alighted, and Huang Zi Long turned to Zhao Yu, saying, “I have something to deal with. Could you can head back yourself?”
“Alright, thank you!”
It was clear that Huang ZI Long didn’t want to drop him at the dormitory, and Zhao Yu didn’t want to overstay his welcome.
Perhaps, Huang Zi Long worried that Zhao Yu might not come in the evening and quickly reminded him, “Tonight at nine, 1’11 pick you up from your building. Don’t be late!”
“All right!”
Zhao Yu responded and then walked towards his dormitory.
Liu Si Yu and Qiao Bing Bing also bid their farewell to Huang Zi Long. Just as they entered the dormitory building, Qiao Bing Bing mentioned she left something in the car and went back to retrieve it.
As she rushed back, sure enough, Huang Zi Long’s car was still there. She confidently entered the car.
“How much was that bag you wanted?” Huang Zi Long, looking out towards the girls’ dormitory entrance, asked nonchalantly.
“Thirty thousand…” Qiao Bing Bing replied with enthusiasm.
“Okay.”
“Tonight, try a bit harder. I want to win over Liu Si Yu…” Huang Zi Long effortlessly took out his phone and transferred the money.
“Of course, money talks…” Qiao Bing Bing with a smirk.
“Alright, you should leave before my other girls see you,” Huang Zi Long said, urging her out.
Qiao Bing Bing wished Huang Zi Long would fancy her, but he didn’t.
“OH MY G.o.d! ZHAO YU!!??”
“ZHAO YU, YOU ARE ALIVE!!”
Inside the dormitory, the other three were engrossed in a video game. When Zhao Yu was back, they exclaimed in surprise.
“We wanted to visit you at the hospital, but our supervisor didn’t approve, so we couldn’t leave…”
“Yeah, Zhao Yu, are you all right?”
Zhao Yu waved his hand.” I’m fine. I just choked on some water. I slept in the hospital…”
“Tsk tsk, Zhao Yu, you might not know this, but you’re famous!”
“Everyone in the school knows your name now!”
“That’s right. Many people came to ask about you…”
” Bing City University’s Romeo and Juliet!”
Previously, Zhao Yu’s reputation for being overly attentive to a single women was only well-known within his cla.s.s and course. Outside of that, hardly anyone knew.
However, after his recent stunt of jumping into the lake, it exploded in public opinion across Bing City University, attracting much attention.
Of course, most of the comments were derisive.
People mocked Zhao Yu for his perceived lack of backbone, thinking he jumped into the lake over a girl.
Zhao Yu didn’t explain much. He hugged his computer and lay on the bed, starting to do his code.
After all, Zhao Yu was a bootlicker, he was one of the top students in the cla.s.s. All their exams depended on him. Three of them just continued on their game.
After a while, Zhao Yu face his first obstacle.
He had intended to create an artificial intelligence. It didn’t have to be as sophisticated as Uncle Da, just smarts enough to a.s.sist him.
However, he realized that his current computer simply didn’t have the capacity for it.
He would need a much more powerful computer…
Zhao Yu recalled that only the computer department at school had a server that might barely support the birth of an AL
Checking the time, he saw that there were several hours left until the appointment. Zhao Yu set out for the computer department.
“Zhao Yu, where are you going?”
“The library…”
As visiting to the library was his usual activity, no one found it odd.
Zhao Yu found out that, aside from the computer lab, three cla.s.srooms were also connected to that mainframe.
Two of the cla.s.srooms were locked while one cla.s.s was in use.
He headed to the cla.s.sroom.
It was a large lecture room, unlike the situation in the bas, he could easily blended in now.
He chose a seat in the last row at the corner, and began coding with the server.
Occasionally, he noticed people coming his way and quickly changed the screen.
He saw a cute girl with twin ponytails was approaching him.
“This is my spot…” she said, pointing to his table.
“These lectures are free-seating.” Zhao Yu replied
” Besides, is your name written on the table?”
“Yes!”
The cute girl pointed at the engraved words on the table and said,” Huo Xiao Xi, did you see that?!”
Zhao Yu lowered his head to take a look. It was obvious that it had been carved on it previously.
He looked around and realized that most of the seats were filled. There were no more seats in the corner like this.
“I was here first, first comes, first serves. Besides, do you think you’re the princ.i.p.al, order me whatever you want?!”
Huo Xiao Xi was clearly frustrated but, seemingly out of options, took a seat nearby.
With her gone, Zhao Yu resumed his work.
After a while, he felt someone staring at him. Turning, he found Huo Xiao Xi, leaning over slightly, watching him intently.
“This girl…What’s wrong with her? DO she has any problem with me?”
Zhao Yu was speechless but he could not be bothered to deal with her, so he continued coding..
