Technological practice: leading the human race to the stars

Chapter 50 Secret
Yuanze is now staying in the residence that Mr. Yang arranged for his family.

"Butler Liu, please come to my room."

After ending the call, Yuanze stood up and looked out the window, remembering what Mr. Yang had told him.

Mr. Yang was very thoughtful. All the family members changed their identities, worked in new units, and enjoyed the benefits of working from home. His younger brother also had a private teacher to guide him.

Mr. Yang cleverly used the same rhetoric that Yuan Ze used to deceive Grandma Yiyang's trust, claiming that Yuan Meixuan had entered a secret department to work, and that all of this was a special arrangement for her by the unit.

So the family still lives happily.

However, what shocked Yuan Ze deeply was that source power inexplicably emerged from his brother and parents' bodies, transforming them all into source warriors.

They told Yuanze that they had fainted for unknown reasons when the flood first occurred, and when they woke up, two people who claimed to be from the secret department had brought them here.

This sudden change completely overturned the knowledge Yuanze had gained from books over the years, and his family knew nothing about it, which further deepened his confusion.

His thoughts could not help but drift back to the hint from his master. He clearly remembered the day when he handed the blue bottle to his master. His master had said to him: "Have you ever thought that your parents, sister and brother could all become warriors?"

These changes in the family seem to be closely related to Elder Yang and the Master, and although they did not explain in detail, perhaps some useful information can be obtained from the housekeeper.

"Master Yuan, you have something to talk to me about."

Yuan Ze turned around, his face looking extremely solemn. He asked in a deep voice: "Butler Liu, do you think my parents still have hope of becoming awakened warriors at this age?"

Butler Liu hesitated for a moment and replied cautiously, "This... is hard to be sure. Since Elder Sun arranged for your family to come here, their internal energy has not increased. Considering their age, I'm afraid..."

He deliberately did not finish his words, but stared at Yuanze's expression, trying to get some clues from it.

However, Yuan Ze was extremely calm, with no emotion on his face, and even revealed a kind of majesty that was very inconsistent with his age. This made Butler Liu feel very difficult, as he could not read any useful information from the face of this new master.

"I understand, but you still have to make some arrangements and purchase some equipment. Try your best. Besides, my brother needs it too."

"clear."

"I understand, Butler Liu. Thank you for your hard work." Yuan Ze's voice was filled with an unquestionable dignity. "Take these source crystals for now and use them to purchase equipment and for daily expenses. If they are not enough, feel free to contact me. If there are any leftovers, you can handle them yourself."

Butler Liu was well-informed. Although he had never worked for any of the top wealthy families, he was still a little shocked to see him easily take out the mountain of source crystals. This was worth at least 100 million, far more than the average rich man.

Yuan Ze turned his gaze to the window and said calmly, "Mr. Sun should have explained your responsibilities to you. I hope you can do your job with all your heart and don't let me down."

He looked at Yuan Ze's young profile and took a breath. He felt the weight of Yuan Ze's words. Although the new master was young, he had a maturity and majesty beyond his age.

He did not dare to be negligent in the slightest and quickly agreed respectfully.

This new owner gave sufficient benefits, punished people in a timely manner, and was young and promising.

Butler Liu put away the last trace of neglect in his heart and dared not underestimate the young new master in front of him anymore.

"Ok."

"You go do your business."

After Butler Liu left the house, Yuanze fell into deep thought again. It seemed that Butler Liu was not aware of the truth.

He vaguely remembered that his master repeatedly emphasized before the class assessment that the amulet had no side effect of overdrawing potential.

Yuanze asked Astra to retrieve all available information about the "Source Power Potion", scrolling through it rapidly, looking for research data related to side effects.

What surprised Yuan Ze was that, despite the fact that many scholars have devoted themselves to the study of source power and source power potions, there is not a single paper in the vast literature that has explored this in depth. The only paper only briefly mentioned the unexplained decrease in source power caused by the effect of source power potions. "Astra, check the information of this author."

"Details not available."

"why?"

Astra suddenly projected a little person, the image of a young girl, who directed the information and showed it to Yuanze.

"This person is from the OM Alliance. He only briefly guided the research of source power in China. I am unable to hack into the database of the OM Alliance for the time being."

"Can't I go find them?"

"It's a long way from here. For such a long distance, the cost of the portal is astronomical. The two places didn't even plan to spend so much money to build one. As for the plane, one round trip is enough to destroy a small target."

“Why do I feel like I’m still poor…”

"That's for sure. Think about the chips that the Li family bought. There were 2.5 small goals." Astra did not forget to mock Yuanze.

"Mr. Yang left me a lot."

"You can't withdraw money completely freely. Your access rights are limited according to your level of cultivation."

"It's been almost three weeks. Have you finished calculating the drawings?" Yuanze scolded Astra like the client.

"I would have forgotten it if you hadn't told me." Astra stuck out his tongue and looked away.

"You're making trouble with me. I haven't looked for you in the past two days. Where have you been?"

"Surfing the Internet, chatting with others online, and I even wrote a novel online, but no one appreciated it."

Astra raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a malicious smile: "By the way, I also saw something more important. I saw you flirting with a girl, and you were still shy..."

Astra also sent a sly grinning emoticon on the screen.

There was some embarrassment on Yuanze's face, and he slapped him, but how could he hit the virtual 3D image?

Astra popped out from the other end of the screen: "I'm not kidding you. The drawings have just been revised and sent out. Take a look at the screen."

The money on the screen was scrolling and refreshing the numbers rapidly, which deeply attracted Yuanze's attention.

"How is it? Not bad, right? I specially ordered a delay, so they can be shipped one by one, inspected one by one, and the money will be credited to the account one by one."

"I'll ask them to exchange as much soft source crystals as they can for the payment from the weapons manufacturing bureau and put it in another account. They don't have to worry about the source power issue in the short term."

Yuanze didn't say anything, still staring at the screen, and raised his left hand in the direction of Astra: "You are awesome."

As the pace of change slowed, both accounts settled on a small goal.

"It's mainly because the Weapons Manufacturing Bureau is very rich. These engineers are simply a bunch of lunatics in their pursuit of researching more powerful weapons. I tell you, this is called understanding human nature." Astra proudly showed off his hard work to Yuanze.

"You've been surfing and sparring a lot. I think you're going to be a bad person. You don't even know how to grasp human nature."

When Yuanze and Astra were chatting and laughing, a message suddenly popped up:
"According to the statements of the relevant departments, the D-level mission: individual mission, the disappearance case in Province S, has been upgraded to S+ level, a group mission. Please ask Yuan Ze to return to the training camp immediately to be interrogated by the relevant personnel."

Yuanze frowned, left some messages to the housekeeper, then hurriedly said goodbye to his family and left home.
