Chapter 841: Biological Computer

It was quite tactful of Chen Tianxiao to inform them of the problems at hand. After all, Fang Ning was no overlord like Shang Qingshan and could not bring himself to silence someone. Hence, he ordered Anderson to lock Chen Tianxiao in prison again…
Chen Tianxiao merely displayed a look of relief when he heard about his sentence and followed Anderson obediently. This was the advantage of meeting a just individual like Vigilante A. If other overlords were to deal with him, a traitor like him would have his soul crushed.
Fang Ning walked out of the Draconic Penitentiary and stood on the blue flagstone path in the System s.p.a.ce. He mused, “It’s amazing that one could foresee the big picture by just focusing on one small piece. Shang Qingshan’s a legend, indeed. A long time ago, Gu Buwei looked after the Two Divine Monuments. Come to think of it now, he must have predicted that such a crisis would happen, that’s why he let this important disciple of his make the necessary preparations. This Precognitive Divination is really wondrous and effective!”
“What’s so special about that? I can do that too.” Sir System scoffed.
Fang Ning sneered. “Why don’t you divine something for me then?”
“I just divined that you’ll laze around again tomorrow…” Sir System declared.
“Eh…” Fang Ning was speechless.
Recently, he had spent a great deal of effort on his work. Therefore, his urge to have fun gradually intensified and he wanted to get an excuse to relax for a few more days.
How could Sir System’s prediction make him feel satisfied?
He knew, of course, that this third-rate c.r.a.p did not rely on any sort of “divination”. Instead, he took a peek at his thoughts again!
Thus, he could only muster up his courage and spoke. “How could that be possible? How could I laze around? It’s business as usual tomorrow.”
“Oh, I made a mistake? Impossible…” Sir System teased cheekily.
“d.a.m.n, I’ve always believed that this is your new trick…” Fang Ning was fl.u.s.tered and started nagging. Then, he dragged himself into the System Cyber Café reluctantly and began to work.
“How could I pull any tricks? I’ve always been an honest System and I won’t play tricks on you.” Sir System emphasized firmly.
Fang Ning was too lazy to deal with this c.r.a.p and looked up all kinds of reports.
“Hey, it’s about time to receive the goods. Today is the fourth year, second month and third day of Shenyuan. According to the previous days, the end of the year is around the corner and it’s time to collect the year’s products.”
“Oh, you don’t have to worry about this, I remember it more clearly than you.” Sir System told him confidently.
“You’ve got a point. I’ve never dealt with it in the previous year and I’ve never seen you collecting one product less.” Fang Ning replied and read the reports of various industries simultaneously.
“Fang Family Food Group’s received revenue of 23 billion yuan…”
“Qi City Herbs Group had a bonus share conversion of two hundred tonnes of various types of herbs…”
“All branches of Magical Provenance had acc.u.mulated approximately 43 billion magical energy points…”
“Magical Energy Bank had a bonus share of 15 billion dollars.”
“The Spiritual Insect Realm had a bonus share of a total of four thousand and five hundred tonnes of various magical herbs.”
“The Land of Heritage gave three hundred stalks of rare herbs as gifts.”
“The Morality City had a bountiful harvest of Yin Attribute Pills with a total of two million and three thousand tonnes.”
“The Land of Sanguinity suffered a construction fund loss of fifty billion.”
“…”
Fang Ning spent three hours reading the complex stacks of reports before he managed to summarized the total revenue generated by the industries under his name.
Unknowingly, a righteous hero like him had become the richest man in the world, which was a far cry from those heroes who lived in the midst of hards.h.i.+p. Instead, he was like one of those fellows who looked heroic on the outside but hid bosses in secret…
Sigh, he was a bit regretful. It felt like he had not really ama.s.sed any wealth purposefully. It was true that the more powerful one became, the more wealth one had.
Regardless of the past or present, with the right amount of power, one could then have the right amount of wealth.
“Don’t you try to be funny. The money belongs to me and it has nothing to do with you.” Sir System bellowed without warning.
“I see, are you trying to deprive me of my freedom of thought as well?” Fang Ning protested.
Sir System replied defiantly. “Hey, I’m just trying to correct those flawed ideas of yours to prevent you from going down the wrong path.”
Fang Ning could only give in to the System. He had nothing else to say to this shameless c.r.a.p, so he resumed his work.
…
j.a.pan. At this point, the land was almost devoid of life and overrun with malevolent spirits.
This place had ended up as a ghost town a long time ago. It was cleansed by Vigilante A several times and the place quietened down gradually. However, no one returned to live here.
People did not even have the time to hide, so how would they dare to migrate here?
Nonetheless, two mighty beings arrived here today.
The G.o.d of Plagues and the Moon G.o.ddess showed up above a volcano.
“Too bad, I can still sense the presence of the Hydra Devil, but I can’t believe it’s dead. What a waste of an excellent helper.” The G.o.d of Plagues muttered and shook his head.
“Forget it, with a variable like Vigilante A who wasn’t predicted by the saints, it’s quite normal that this sort of accident would happen.” The Moon G.o.ddess comforted him.
“Yeah, at least this place still has its uses. Black Robe doesn’t want to hand over the Red Queen and he’s hiding in Vigilante A’s nest to avoid our plans, but what does he know of the intelligence of the G.o.ds? Without him, we can still create an A.I to help us attack the Heavenly Axiom.” The G.o.d of Plagues spoke confidently.
The Moon G.o.ddess nodded. “Earlier, you mentioned a Biological Computer, your Divinity. I’ve observed its potential and indeed, it can surpa.s.s the limits of regular computers. With the humans’ intelligence, however, they can’t optimize and put it to proper use within a short span of time. I believe you can successfully complete it, your Divinity.”
“Mm, by using this wasteland as a place for experiments, it should be completed within a year. Till them, they’re going to have the shock of their lives.”
The G.o.d of Plagues spoke and pointed a finger at the island beneath them.
The clouds of smog that enveloped the island slowly dissipated and were replaced by clumps of greyish-white living beings that began to reproduce on the ground at growing speed which could be observed by the naked eye.
They looked ferocious and menacing. Once they took on their final forms, they dug into the soil and absorbed the organic nutrients from the land.
Just by looking at these greyish-white living beings, no one would ever guess that they were correlated to the “Biological Computer” so often mentioned in scientific circles.
“Mm, once these living proteins take on their final forms en ma.s.se, the experiment can begin. The Biological Computer’s processing speed is very much faster than that of a regular computer. In due time, by reducing the number of Heavenly Axioms in this realm, we can find the method of attacking the Heavenly Axiom.” The G.o.d of Plagues explained enthusiastically.
“Perfect, I look forward to that day’s arrival. The status and reputation of us G.o.ds are not recognized by the powerhouses of this realm.” The Moon G.o.ddess remarked coldly.
“Hmph, Shang Qingshan will have it one day. Who cares about his Precognitive Divination? Once my Biological Computer is completed, I can predict all kinds of changes, so what can his Precognitive Divination do?” The G.o.d of Plagues recalled the time when he walked away from the Azure Mountain dejectedly and a burning rage grew within him.
Losing one’s G.o.dly status in the Upper Realm would lead to unfortunate events. At least the situations he had encountered were still within his prediction. He was confident that he would have the capability to let those people experience their comeuppance.
“It’s called t.i.t for tat, and it’s the most appropriate method.” The Moon G.o.ddess nodded in agreement.
