He lives on another planet and is majoring in Earth Science.

Chapter 122 Professor Qi attains enlightenment through recharging.

The reception room door slowly opened, and an ant-man walked out proudly, waving his four forelimbs at Professor Qi.

Then I went to sit down in the waiting area next door.

Congratulations on unlocking Ant-Man!

"But what I want are the Poppy aliens."

Professor Qi had no choice but to spend another 100 Alliance Coins to claim the first recharge reward.

"I still don't understand the purpose behind this recharge system."

Why can't all races be given equal opportunities in my choices?

The old lady didn't understand and just kept pressing the buttons.

A Barbaradus alien crawled out of it, its eight tentacles tumbling out.

"next."

The golden figure walked out gracefully from inside.

"next."

"Buzzing—"

A carbon-based motorcycle burst out.

"Next one. This one absolutely has to come out!"

Unbeknownst to him, Professor Qi's heart was also caught up in this card-drawing game.

She was completely immersed in it.

The door slowly opened, and an ant-man walked out with his head held high, waving his four forelimbs at Professor Qi.

"Why are the characters repeating? Isn't this a scam?"

After twenty draws, Professor Qi looked at the various strange and unusual races sitting in the waiting area and turned green with anger.

There were six ant-men, four wasp-men, and three cockroach-men.

There wasn't a single elderly woman among them.

In a fit of anger, Professor Qi recharged another 2000 Alliance Coins.

After two hundred desperate consecutive draws, the old lady gave up.

"Why is it so hard to draw a character of your own race?!"

She lay on the ground, contemplating the meaning of it all.

Looking at the densely packed crowd of people of various races in the waiting hall, she suddenly realized something.

"In this game of probability, the roles we don't get are perhaps just like our lives."

"We can't just invite the actors we want whenever we want."

"Just like we can't decide what race we're born into."

"But we have to bear the burden of deep historical grievances for things we have no choice in."

"The Interstellar Alliance is gradually moving towards a unified society, no longer a society of a single race."

"We should abandon these racial constraints from the old planetary era, let go of the sense of superiority over our origins, and accept others, which is also an acceptance of ourselves."

Professor Qi got up from the ground and walked quickly to the orange button.

"This design is ingenious."

"The more money we spend in this game of chance, the deeper our obsession with racial issues becomes."

“I conduct racial research and believe that I have shed the arrogance of the Pepe aliens.”

"But I was still obsessed with choosing my own race."

"This behavior reflects my strong racial sentiments and makes me see the self that I have been running away from all along."

She stared at the round orange button as if a black hole were staring at her.

She recalled all her experiences from childhood to adulthood, and repented for all her unintentional arrogance and pity.

She breathed a long sigh of relief, as if her soul had been cleansed by a sweet spring.

"This game is absolutely amazing; no wonder it has been able to change India's deeply entrenched caste system."

[Do you wish to start the game?]

"what?"

"Didn't I start the game?"

"What was that just now?"

-

Li Ji felt a little panicked as he watched the numbers in his account steadily increase.

But reason quickly prevailed over intuition.

"Professor Qi keeps spending money on in-game purchases; he must really enjoy playing games, right?"

The next morning, Li Ji emerged from the hibernation pod.

He relaxed and extended his eight tentacles.

"I switched to a different hibernation solution, and my sleep quality has improved a lot." He climbed to the control panel, where a holographic projection displayed a message.

Upon opening it, I saw Professor Qi's deeply lined old face, his white hair looking somewhat disheveled, and his dark circles under his eyes particularly striking.

She said weakly, "Li Ji, I have already experienced the teaching program you developed."

"The effect is very good."

"The in-app purchase section, in particular, is very attractive to me."

Li Ji originally thought the professor had spent so much money on games, but he didn't expect it was the money he spent on games that was the problem.

"The philosophical insights it contains are endlessly fascinating."

Li Ji is already a bit out of touch. What philosophical ingenuity is there in spending 648 yuan?

“When I use characters of other races, I can feel that emotional connection.”

"At that moment, I felt a sense of empathy for this race."

"And the design of that human wall."

Looking at Professor Qi's half-dead face, Li Ji suddenly felt that the design was indeed bizarre yet radical.

Professor Qi exclaimed in praise: "Very ingenious!"

"what?"

"He reminds me of a piece of art I saw on Earth called Guernica. It has a very similar meaning."

Li Ji nodded silently; at least they were all abstract artists.

"I have already applied to the department to purchase it, and I expect to be using this teaching aid in the classroom soon."

"Send me your corporate bank account details."

"I need to go play some more, no, I need to prepare my lessons."

After reading the message, Li Ji quickly sent over his account information.

He waited anxiously in front of the projector.

Soon after, 345000 Alliance Coins were deposited into the account.

"Wow! 3000 yuan a set, they just bought it like that! When did the school become so rich?"

345,000 is still a little short of Dailulu's initial investment of 500,000.

However, since the in-app purchase system has been retained, there's no fear of not seeing a return on investment.

If this model can be extended to the earth science departments of the other two universities in Milford in the future, it will be another substantial source of revenue.

The second day of social norms class.

Circular lecture hall.

Lee Ki sat in the funnel-shaped seat in the second row.

The seats are arranged in order of size, with the lower seats being smaller and the upper seats being larger.

Shark sat in front of him, with Delulu and Milia on either side.

The red circular floor in the center of the classroom descended.

Professor Qi emerged wearing a jetpack, her dark circles even more pronounced.

"Class, today we're having a practical lesson."

"The department recently developed a teaching tool based on the Earth game."

"This teaching tool helps to enhance everyone's knowledge and understanding of the Earth."

"It will also allow you to feel more empathy for each other's race and create a deeper emotional connection."

"We also hope to study how this teaching aid can help ease race relations."

"Don't worry about the purchases, the school has already thoughtfully made them for you."

"The fee has been automatically deducted from your account."

"Students whose accounts have no balance don't need to worry. The school has automatically applied for the lowest interest loan available to you."

The classroom erupted in an uproar.

"Again?"

"It's always like this!"

"How come the lowest interest rate I can borrow is 5%?!"

Li Ji then understood why the money transfer had been so prompt yesterday.

[Account - 4000 Alliance Coins]

Wait! Why is money being deducted from my account too?
They're going to deduct another thousand?
Are they using students to generate revenue?
Shark and Milia both looked at Li Ji with a mournful expression.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"You're not planning to ask me to refund your money, are you?"

"I'm a victim too!"
