Wasteland Development Diary

“I want you to study cultural knowledge properly.”

This was Zhou Yi's first order to the Death Angel.

Now the company has a scanning and recognition program provided by 703. It can read aloud through the enhanced controller. Illiteracy doesn't affect receiving information and basic knowledge.

Zhou Yi stayed with Yuanxiao for two days and found that she belonged to a particularly specialized type.

She is smart most of the time, and can infer three things from one without prompting, but she lacks a lot of conventional knowledge. For example, she has no understanding of Imprint Light Art.

“That's just a clumsy imitation of us, what's so good about learning it? There's no need.”

She was very resistant at first.

Zhou Yi told her: “In this world, most advanced tools cannot do without Imprint Light Art. If you want to defeat the dragon, the best way is to use a specially made A-grade light imprint weapon to lock it from a distance.”

He gestured a shooting motion.

“Catch it off guard and kill it with one shot.”

“Or, in the old-fashioned way, detonate the entire Dragon Palace. There is now such alien detonation technology.”

“But if it were me, I might choose to throw a specific light burst bomb... What is the dragon afraid of?”

“I don’t know, but what the dragon fears most is losing everyone’s awe and absolute confidence in it.”

Zhou Yi snapped his fingers: “That’s simple. I’ll just bomb the Dragon Palace area from high altitude. It doesn’t dare to come out, afraid of being besieged by the Celestials, right? So it can only passively defend and be beaten.”

“As long as I use a specific light burst bomb that can penetrate the defense of the building’s life, it will be questioned because it cannot fight back.”

“You are so despicable!”

Although she spurned the idea verbally, Yuanxiao's face was flushed with excitement: “Can it really be done?”

“Can you fly at that altitude?”

“Yes.”

“Then there’s no problem. It can be done with specific directional modifications and enhancements.”

Zhou Yi said lightly: “This is the power of technology. We relied on this to suppress the natives in the Shuanghe area and end the War of Honor. It’s an old game to roam the world on your own.”

“All the territorial sea lords are managing their territories in order to obtain a steady stream of resources and the latest technological support. This is the latest version of understanding.”

The Death Angel was stunned for a moment, digested it for a while, and said: “What you said makes sense. It is indeed difficult to go it alone. Dragons also need Dragon Palaces to cultivate dragon descendants, and even Celestials need Heavens to work for them.”

“It’s good that you understand.”

Zhou Yi added: “In addition, knowledge in other areas is also useful. If you master a large number of various written languages, you can acquire the knowledge and skills of different intelligent races, and even obtain the secrets they possess.”

“Do you know the Divine Era script?”

“No…”

“Then do you know where there are a lot of records about dragons?”

Yuanxiao was stunned: “A lot of records? Are there so many records of dragons?”

“Yes. There are many records about dragons in the prehistoric human era. In Divine Era literature, the dragon forms that appeared in different regions and eras are different.”

“Some are five-clawed golden dragons, symbolizing ruling the world. Some are huge, winged reptiles, greedy predators. Some dragons make clouds and rain, and are gods in charge of rain and rivers. These are all clearly documented.”

Zhou Yi said without blushing or panting: “Only by reading more can you understand the concept of dragons.”

The girl seemed to understand something: “No wonder you asked me what kind of dragon it was before. So that’s what it was. I didn’t know any of this.”

“The matter about your daughter is actually a subject of learning and knowledge.”

Zhou Yi explained: “In the prehistoric human era, there were also situations like yours. Parents went out to work and came back a few times a year. The children stayed at home or entered school—you can understand it as another form of Dragon Palace. Over time, parent-child problems will arise…”

“These children were called left-behind children at the time. It is not uncommon for them to be influenced by external bad groups or even led astray.”

“I understand. The Death Angel clan itself has special homosexual repulsion, but the experience of prehistoric humans can still be used as a reference.”

“If you knew about this situation, Nian Gao’s matter could have been avoided.”

These words completely made Yuanxiao determined: “I understand. I will study these things properly.”

In the next few days, the Death Angel began to devote herself to studying.

She held the enhanced controller and listened to books every day, learning the writing of prehistoric humans.

Although her attitude was very correct, the process was difficult.

She often started to yawn while studying, then her eyes began to wander, and then she entered a trance.

If she wasn't being watched by Zhou Yi, she would just fall asleep.

Zhou Yi was also a little helpless.

He didn't blame Yuanxiao either. Learning is painful for most people, let alone a wasteland illiterate who has never been to school for a day.

Zhou Yi thought of a way: coffee.

He gave Yuanxiao bottled coffee to refresh herself. Anyway, there was still a lot of inventory.

She was indeed much more energetic, but it was still difficult to learn.

This A-level life scratched her ears and cheeks every day, tearing out handfuls of hair.

She was in great pain most of the time.

“I don’t understand at all… This is much more difficult than hunting and whaling.”

“They are obviously just some numbers. Why can’t I understand them when they are changed in a different way?”

“What is the Pythagorean theorem… What is this thing!!”

Zhou Yi was stunned: “What are you looking at?”

Then he discovered that the other party was actually reading "People's Education Edition Eighth Grade Mathematics".

For Yuanxiao, who had never even attended elementary school, junior high school mathematics was indeed too advanced.

“Don’t read this for now. It’s too difficult.”

Zhou Yi pointed out: “First read some simple biology, geography, these stories are easier to understand. You can ask me about the parts you don’t understand, or you can skip them and find the parts you are interested in.”

He gave Yuanxiao a few books, all of which were relatively interesting introductory science books, the most important of which was a book of 100,000 Whys.

Sure enough, after coming down from the peak of junior high school mathematics, the sorrow on the Death Angel's face disappeared a lot. She yawned less when reading, and sometimes even looked happy. She finally found a little fun.

Zhou Yi was also a little relieved.

This was a bold attempt.

Yuanxiao is good at hunting, but this profession is not in line with the company's development direction.

The company's core is the deep development of the wasteland, and the application and tool manufacturing based on various resources, focusing on creation, production and trade.

Yuanxiao herself is very strong, but because she is a lone ranger and has suffered from a lack of culture, her life is not smooth, and she is more like a powerful barbarian who only knows how to hunt with her head down.

So Zhou Yi prepared to make up for the missing part.

You have to learn to use all kinds of knowledge and brains, otherwise, relying solely on brute force without absolute power above everyone else will eventually lead to death.

Another part of the reason is related to the three special abilities that Yuanxiao possesses.

“My [Fatal Annotation] can see the life status of various lives. It looks like a string of beads composed of small blood cells, surrounding each life. I can see their life status, so I can judge their life intensity during battle.”

“During battle, I can always judge their life intensity. The closer they are to death, the more flaws will be exposed, and information similar to annotations will appear in my mind, allowing me to capture the fatal weaknesses of the prey.”

Yuanxiao added: “My [Regeneration] can place various surrounding consciousnesses into specific bodies. Sometimes it creates low-level bone people, sometimes other low-level monsters, but it is also easy to fail. The regenerated low-level life can run errands and do things for me, but it is also much more fragile than life born in the normal way.”

“Finally, the most critical is [Death Conversion]. This ability is also well known to the outside world.”

“Once activated, my power can radiate and cover various lives within the range, absorbing and devouring life force to quickly restore and enhance my own life. This also makes my life force very strong and has high anti-killing ability.”

“But this ability also has a price, that is, every time I use Death Conversion, some death lines will form on my body. The longer the usage time, the larger the area of ​​the generated death lines.”

She stretched out her arm, and black lines appeared on her fair skin. These black lines were like blood vessels showing on the epidermis, and also like black hyphae growing from the body.

There were even many death lines on Yuanxiao's face, which gave her a layer of Gothic gloomy temperament.

“If the death lines cover the whole body and completely complete the connection cycle, the Death Angel will die. Everything we have seized and hunted will also return to this world.”

She said in a calm tone: “This is the price. What is taken will eventually be returned. We hunters have very strong destructive power, but this power will eventually feed back to ourselves. There are very few Death Angels, also because of this reason.”

Also because of her ability characteristics, the hunter branch in Death Angels has always been radical combat hunters.

Compared with attacking weak lives and causing the death lines to spread, hunting powerful prey will not waste life.

Even with fatal flaws, these are still extremely powerful three abilities.

[Fatal Annotation] can see the blood bars of all things, and see the fatal weaknesses of the enemy when the opponent's life is low, which can be called a finishing skill.

[Regeneration] can transform flesh and blood into bone people or monsters - although there is also a high probability of failure, to some extent, it is a life transformation ability. Sun Chonglai became a bone man because of this.

[Death Conversion] is a big killer that gets stronger as you fight, with a high price, but the combat power is also enough.

Therefore, facing the Focusing Body and Wu Yi, Yuanxiao was not at a disadvantage fighting 1 against 2.

Also because of the above reasons.

Zhou Yi decided to let Yuanxiao transform, and no longer be a front-line combat member, otherwise this would consume life and die quickly.

In fact.

Even if she serves as a support, it is of great use.

Fatal Annotation itself is really easy to use.

……

Just as the daily study of one evening ended, the alarm clock rang, and Yuanxiao in the study stretched and stood up: “Chairman, I have finished today’s content, I want to see Sun Hao today.”

Zhou Yi said: “Okay. I haven’t seen him for a few days either, together.”

The two walked into the elevator all the way.

“By the way.”

Zhou Yi suddenly remembered: “The hunters in the Death Angel have death line restrictions, what about the doctors?”

The girl who was originally relaxed, sighed at this time.

“Yes.”
