Chapter 240 Li Ang: I need more professions!
[The previous chapter has been revised. Dear readers, please remember to go back and take a look. Those who have read the job change conditions for [Transcendent - Energy] can ignore this.]

The vibration from the communication device on his wrist pulled Martin back to reality.

He withdrew his gaze, no longer paying attention to the insect corpses drifting in space outside the porthole, and slightly raised his right wrist.

It was a message, but when Martin saw the sender, he was taken aback: "What does this little dragon want with me? Is it about the army group's procurement again?"

If Your Excellency Martin has the time in the near future, please come to Morabis for a chat.

—Li Ang

Recalling what had happened, the quartermaster frowned slightly.

After a brief moment of thought, Martin responded.

【it is good. 】

Although he had some friction with the other party, it was not an irreconcilable conflict.

It just so happens that his vacation is coming up soon, so there's no harm in meeting him.

However, these are all superficial reasons. The deeper reason is that Blood Secret Company has been extremely busy with certain matters recently. Even if he reaches a cooperation agreement with that little dragon cub, he probably won't be targeted too much.

'I just don't know if this little dragon cub has truly advanced to the fourth energy level.'

All of the above is naturally based on strength. Whether or not to cooperate with the other party can only be decided after Martin meets with them.

……

Morabis.

After Li Ang successfully completed the [Shepherd] job change, [The Sims] reopened, just like the previous two days were simply a routine check.

Elise was the only one on the entire planet who vaguely noticed the strangeness at the time, but unfortunately, she was too slow to think about it and soon forgot about it.

"That's how it is, Master."

"Alchemy Kingdom," Karina said respectfully, looking at the young man standing by the workbench, who was working on something with his head down.

At this moment, Li Ang stopped what he was doing and then completed the cleaning work with the help of a maid.

He turned to look at the humble-looking young woman, and the words she had just spoken flashed through his mind: "Alchemy Master?"

Master is a title reserved exclusively for sixth-order alchemists.

According to the information revealed by Karina, the group of alchemists from Central City who have been lingering there for some time seem to have recently made contact with a certain alchemy master from the [Miracle of the One] who is interested in the [Seven Kingdoms].

Upon hearing the voice, Karina lowered her head slightly to avoid the gaze that frightened her, and said with feigned composure, "It should be Master Ize, who is known as the 'Otherworldly One.' His specialty is biotransformation."

"However, from what I know, Master Ize had a conflict with a major designer in [Immortal Evolution] and hasn't shown up for a long time. I didn't expect that they would be able to get in touch."

The Grand Designer is a unique position in [Immortal Evolution], essentially equivalent to an Alchemy Master.

It's not surprising that Izar, who is skilled in bio-alchemy, would clash with these madmen who like to create Frankenstein's monsters; after all, heretics are always more hateful than heretics.

As Karina finished speaking, the laboratory fell silent for a moment.

After a long pause, Li Ang said noncommittally, "I'm sorry to have troubled you."

Upon hearing this, Karina abruptly raised her head and explained with a hint of urgency, "Master, I wasn't involved in this matter. I only went to investigate after you gave the order!"

"Ah"

Faced with the explanation, Li Ang first smiled, then gave the young woman a meaningful look: "This is the last time."

Karina's mouth suddenly went dry. She wanted to say something but didn't know how to start, so she could only swallow to ease her nervousness.

After a long while, she lowered her head and replied in a dry voice, "...Yes."

For some reason, the young man in front of her gave her a great sense of pressure, even though she could tell from his aura that he was just a fourth-level professional like herself.

Seemingly to remedy the situation, Karina quickly said, "Master, there's no need to worry too much. Although Master Ize is a sixth-tier alchemist, under normal circumstances, he can only learn the alchemy you possess through trading."

The Taiyi Miracle naturally has its own rules. High-level alchemists within the group can only learn alchemy from low-level alchemists through formal trading channels.

After all, if they could plunder at will, then there would be no need for this global behemoth to exist.

Of course, there is no perfect fairness in the world. Even alchemy often requires risking one's life for another. Therefore, high-level alchemists can often exert pressure on low-level alchemists through external factors such as status and position, thereby obtaining what they want at a lower cost.

However, high-level alchemists wouldn't be that foolish under normal circumstances.

Li Ang wasn't worried that the other party would resort to force or robbery, since alchemy rank and energy level were unrelated. A sixth-rank alchemist could be a fifth-level energy level professional or a sixth-level energy level professional.

There's not much to say about the former; most artisan-type professionals are weak in direct combat, and with his current strength, he can easily defeat them.

The latter.
Since he had never fought against a sixth-level professional, Li Ang was unsure if he could handle it. However, if it was just an ordinary sixth-level craftsman, he felt he should be able to manage.

After all, not all craftsmanship professions are as outrageous as the "King of Bronze and Fire," unless Master Iz's profession is not a craftsmanship profession.

Of course, if things don't go well, he can also use the reputation of [AIO Logistics] as a pretext to pay Sophia and Iris's rent.

Thinking of this, Li Ang pulled himself out of his thoughts and said calmly, "You can go down now."

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Karina felt a great sense of relief and quickly fled the laboratory that had made her feel so oppressed.

Li Ang watched the young woman leave quietly until her figure disappeared from sight before turning his gaze away.

The reason the other party behaved the way they did just now was naturally due to the interference of [Dual Hands]. However, unlike the [Great Love Project] members who were completely controlled in the One-Man World, this time he only interfered with the other party's emotions and read some minor details of their memories.

Just as Li Ang had guessed, employees of giant corporations like Taiyi Miracle were indeed subject to restrictions to prevent them from revealing certain key information.

Fortunately, the Dual Hands are able to keenly perceive these limitations, thus bypassing them to read the rest of the information.

For Li Ang, that was enough, since he wasn't interested in what secrets these giant corporations held.

Let's all keep to ourselves and avoid interfering with each other.

The only thing that Li Ang found somewhat regrettable was that he did not find any information about [Limit Value] or [Breaking Limit] in Karina's memories.

This situation could mean either the other party is not at a high enough level to access this information, or the job change requirements for [Transcendent Energy] are indeed an isolated case.

Either way, it's enough to give Li Ang a headache.

He did ask Elise and Sophia, but unfortunately, both of them said they had never heard of the concept.

Elise is alright; it's normal that she wouldn't know, given her brain capacity.

But Sophia is different. This young lady of the Gem Dragon Clan obviously has better access to information than most people in this world. If even she doesn't know, it can only mean that [Transcendent Energy] is not something Li Ang should be considering right now.

With a somewhat helpless feeling, Li Ang buried the information about [Transcendent Energy] deep in his heart.

Of the professions he currently possesses, the [Immortal] has unlimited growth potential, but requires a long time to develop. While the [Star Shepherd] provides extremely exaggerated stat bonuses, it has a level cap.

Therefore, if Li Ang wants to continue advancing in the short term, he can only start with other professions.

[Black Emperor], [Creator of Life]
As the information about the two professions flashed through his mind, Li Ang's eyes flickered slightly.

If there are no unexpected changes, the [Black Emperor] and [Life Creator] will at most reach the fifth level, which is just icing on the cake for him. After all, no one knows whether these two professions will experience a leap in growth after subsequent job advancements, just like [Star Shepherd].

He needs more basic jobs.

Fortunately, given his current status, he doesn't need to worry too much about collecting basic professions attracting the attention of those with ulterior motives, since it can be used to win people's hearts.

Even so, Li Ang still felt it was best to be cautious.

As time goes on, people will inevitably notice his diverse abilities, and then they may very well associate it with his behavior of collecting professional information. The "console player" is not without the possibility of being exposed.

After a moment's thought, Li Ang gradually came up with a solution.

That means having someone controlled by Dual Hands, or a pseudo-Servant like Christine who is ostensibly unrelated to him, do this.

This would greatly reduce his suspicion.

Thinking of this, Li Ang breathed a sigh of relief and then began to prepare for the relevant matters.

……

Two days passed quickly.

The preparatory work for collecting basic professional information has been almost completed, and we can soon move on to the implementation stage.

Progress was not fast. On the one hand, Li Ang could not simply carry out indiscriminate slaughter and turn all the corpses into [pseudo-Servants]. On the other hand, he needed to carefully select the targets to control with [Dual Hands].

Fortunately, given his current status as the planet's governor, dealing with these two issues is not particularly difficult.

However, before the plan could be implemented, Li Ang needed to meet with Martin first.

The quartermaster of the 9000th Army Group finally arrived at Morabis, but unlike last time when he brought his men, this time he was alone.

Martin looked at the young man walking ahead and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The other party is indeed a genuine fourth-level being; the intelligence is accurate.

Led by Li Ang, the two arrived at the governor's mansion built above the Alchemy Kingdom.

Looking at the lively and spirited android maids coming and going around him, Martin couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "Governor Leon's talent in alchemy is truly enviable."

The hermaphrodite still remembered that when he last arrived on Morabis, these puppets were incredibly dull.

However, the iteration was completed in just a short time.

More importantly, if he remembered correctly, the other party was not a craftsman, but achieved this solely through talent.

'Tsk, what a damn talent monster.'

After mentally cursing a couple of times, Martin casually asked, "Is Governor Leon interested in selling these dolls?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ang immediately stopped, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Of course, but does the army group need it?"

“They’re sufficient for logistics personnel.” Martin shrugged, but quickly added, “Of course, to ensure that no backdoors have been left in these products, the army group needs the suppliers to provide the blueprints.”

"Don't worry, we'll sign the contract."

After a brief silence, Li Ang chose to skip the topic: "What would you like to drink, Your Excellency? Our Plant Alliance has recently launched some new products."

Seeing this, Martin knew that the other party had rejected his proposal.

However, he didn't say anything more, since it was originally a suggestion he made on a whim.

Moreover, unlike Blood Secret, the companies in the group that are currently responsible for providing these kinds of biological products are quite difficult to deal with.

Soon, the two arrived at the conference room of the governor's mansion.

At that moment, several jars of the plant-based products recently launched by Plant Union were placed on the table in the conference room, but Martin didn't even glance at them.

For him, the quality of military supplies only needed to meet the minimum standard; whether or not a cooperation could be reached depended on other factors.

Without probing further, Martin cut to the chase: "I had already read your intelligence before I came. That 'Invincible Knight' is no pushover. I didn't expect you to be able to defeat him."

As the Federation's violent agency stationed in the Obsidian Starfield, the 9000th Army's intelligence system naturally included records of the battle between Li Ang and Octavio.

To be honest, Martin himself was inferior in terms of strength, which was the main reason why he was willing to come to Morabis to meet him.

Unfortunately, that's not enough.

Seeing that Li Ang's expression remained unchanged, Martin couldn't help but shake his head slightly: "You should know that if you reach a cooperation agreement with me, Secret Blood Company certainly won't let you off the hook, right?"

"Those vampires are no pushovers, even with your current strength."

The quartermaster didn't finish his sentence. He simply looked the young man up and down before shutting his mouth and saying nothing more.

Defeating that "Invincible Knight" is nothing special, after all, Blood Secrets is not a lone wolf.

Even setting aside the sixth-level master, this large corporation has more than two fifth-level professionals.

And what about plant association?

Ha ha.

And so, Martin silently watched the young man across the table with whom he had once had a disagreement, preparing to see what choice he would make.

The silence didn't last long, and Li Ang quickly replied: "Mr. Martin, why don't you try our new product first?"

Upon hearing this, Martin grinned and said, "Interesting. You're not afraid at all."

Li Ang tilted his head in confusion: "Why should I be afraid?"

"."

Martin was speechless, unsure where the young man's confidence came from.

It's normal not to know, since Li Ang has been using a combination technique to conceal his aura since the very first meeting.

As for where their confidence comes from...
【Immortal】, 【Star Shepherd】.

Then let me ask you a question, and you answer me!

Look in my eyes!

Tell me why!
