Chapter 1481: Chapter 1479: Sampling

”What a nice nap!”

Faced with the holiday notice, Wen Li didn’t seem surprised.

However, as if something anticipated had finally happened, she didn’t hide her regret.

”Though I am reluctant to leave such an interesting job, I still wish you a pleasant field exploration.”

With a smile, she offered her best wishes, clearly remembering the plan Fu Qian had mentioned.

She even took a deliberate glance at Fu Qian’s left arm while speaking.

No wonder Mr. Fu, in just over a day, seemed completely recovered.

”Thank you, but I should first do some preparatory work.”

Such a polite and proactive employee made Fu Qian very satisfied, naturally.

As for the preparations mentioned, they weren’t just made up.

The tree in Xi Yuan City capable of condensing laws is indeed the focus of this field exploration, but he didn’t plan to head straight to the destination.

As mentioned before, the Witch is currently out of contact, so even if something is found, it can’t be reported immediately.

Therefore, before that, it’s better to make more thorough preparations, like testing materials.

For example, Kaldora.

...

Fu Qian was deeply impressed by this Demigod from the Heaven’s Commencement Institute who doesn’t like to move.

If he remembered correctly, Dean Cass once said that after becoming a formal tutor at Heaven’s Commencement, one could apply to use the tissues sliced from Kaldora.

Last time I left, I was already a lifetime professor and am definitely qualified.

And as a piece of cursed flesh that can integrate with any transcendent realm, Fu Qian is very interested to know what changes will occur if it approaches that ”tree.”

So before going to Xi Yuan, it’s better to return to the Academy and perform some symbolic duties as a professor.

Besides, if the Ver Sisters travel fast enough, their volunteer program can also be arranged.

”Alright, if you need my help anywhere, just let me know... or if there’s a place where I shouldn’t speak up?”

Without asking much about Fu Qian’s preparations, Wen Li blinked, implying something.

”There’s no need to keep my changes secret from Chief Yuan, but don’t reveal the content of our nap or your gun to Chief Yuan for the time being.”

Understanding Wen Li’s meaning, Fu Qian nodded slightly, indicating there was no need to be overly cautious.

Regarding keeping an eye on the situation in Shangjing, the movements of Tyler and Jiang En, Fu Qian knew there was no need to instruct; Miss Wen wouldn’t let it slip.

Mr. Fu indeed keeps a low profile.

In continuous nodding agreement, Wen Li sighed inwardly.

During the promotion to the Second Phase, Chief Yuan assisted, as Mr. Fu had mentioned in a dream before. So now stating there’s no need to hide things from Chief Yuan once again proves Mr. Fu’s honesty.

As for Jiang En’s matter, although the aim of previous operations was to leverage two young talents in Shangjing,

it didn’t cause any harm, and the gratitude afterward was even more significant for those involved.

Though slightly more proactive, a bit unlike Mr. Fu’s usual style, from her perspective, she at least didn’t see him gaining any benefits from above.

Even if Chief Yuan knew about such a matter, he probably wouldn’t have any objections, but he still chose to keep it confidential.

During this process, my performance wasn’t bad either.

Reviewing the whole matter, there was an increased sense of shared secrecy, enhancing Wen Li’s joy while not delaying Mr. Fu’s time, she smiled and bid farewell.

”Understood, see you then. But does my trial period count as over this time? Will there be a salary next time?”

...𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Sneaky capitalist.

Wen Li, who hadn’t paid her salary yet, was already asking for it.

Such shamelessness made Fu Qian sigh over the degeneracy of mankind.

However, her determination to request a salary wasn’t too strong, as she was already waving goodbye while asking.

Of course, Wen Li did misjudge one thing—

The Death Overlord appeared to have no reaction at all.

As they parted ways, Fu Qian let out a cold snort.

Helping Brother Jiang En achieve a comeback yielded many benefits.

Aside from the overall plan for the Greedy Worm team, Fu Qian actually had a hidden purpose.

It was to find out if the true beneficiary of the oath, the Death Overlord mentioned by Ah Wei, would show any changes due to this round of decayed flesh sharing.

Not using more straightforward guidance was also due to this, giving Greedy Worms some room for creativity to see if they might have insights missed upon reflecting on this series of events.

Unfortunately, their conclusions up to this point seem to attribute all glory to the Abandonment King.

So-called Death Overlord, did he die that clean?

Or is it that in this somewhat special oath, reinforcement happens through some unconventional means instead of a traditional tool person’s upgrade?

It’s hard to say.

...

Upon reaching the academic Holy Land, the ”Death Overlord Hypothesis” still hadn’t made new progress.

Watching the dark silence, with the morning light not yet arrived, Fu Qian, who returned to work after days as a Second Phase, didn’t disturb his colleagues unreasonably.

”I’m an academic leader with my own standalone lab; there’s no need to stay under Lanaia’s roof anymore.”

Of course, Fu Qian doubted if the head of the Punishment Department was even home at this hour.

Lightheartedly speculating about his theoretical superior, Fu Qian roamed this quiet place, arriving at an even quieter spot.

Let me think about how to open this... seems like I don’t need to, it has its own soul recognition.

Looking up at his extravagantly styled research facility, the once splendid pointed roof now appeared somewhat pale.

It was clear that the laboratory’s prohibition was active.

Squeak...

With a faint sound, Fu Qian easily pushed open the door before him, confirming that Professor Lisha hadn’t sneaked in to revoke his access during his absence.

Yet separated by a single wall, the difference in light between outside and inside was significant.

The tower was darker than the surrounding dawn.

Of course, this did not affect Fu Qian’s observation.

Sitting down upon approaching, he noticed some changes around him, but the interior still maintained a simple and tidy style.

It seemed the laboratory staff had tidied up slightly while preserving the condition from when he left as much as possible.

”Professor Fu, you’re back?”

While commenting, the voice of the laboratory staff came from the darkness above.

”Mm, thank you for your hard work.”

Fu Qian looked at Miss Ji Liushuang, who appeared pleasantly surprised, and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Of course, he knew this research assistant was resting in the lab.

Once the prohibition was activated, although this building had some effect in masking the aura, it was still not quite enough to escape a Second Phase.

The cold response was due to Fu Qian pondering a serious question—would she demand overtime pay too?

As it turned out, Miss Liushuang indeed was somewhat younger and not too severely affected by capitalism, having not developed the habit of demanding wages.

Approaching with a smile, she never mentioned compensation.

However, it lasted only a moment before the sweet smile on her face froze.

When she spoke again, her eyes were sharply piercing.

”You are not... who are you?”

With a familiar interrogation, an even more severe sword aura was unleashed.
