The process of deification began with the discovery of hidden information in divine objects.

Boom boom boom!

boom!

The deafening roar and the billowing dust caused everyone outside to cough.

The thick dust obscured the cave entrance, and several large rocks rolled down. Then, everyone saw a figure slowly emerge from the dust.

Upon closer inspection of the rocks blocking the cave entrance, it became clear that someone had actually pried open the largest boulder, which weighed several tons!

"How...how did they do that?"

Zhou Yu was terrified, and the cigarette in his hand involuntarily fell to the ground.

Xu Jingwen was completely dumbfounded as she saw a boulder weighing several tons... being chiseled open.

It's actually very simple. When Su Ziye brought Lao Chen out of the cave, the top layer of rock began to collapse, and he was indeed hit by several rocks.

At the crucial moment, he used the effect of the Vanguard Order!

The way to awaken the Giant Spirit Vanguard Order is to accomplish a feat of power that will shock the world!

He moved the massive boulder blocking the door with terrifying strength; how could this not be a feat of strength that shocked the world?

The moment Su Ziye stepped into the cave, he sensed that the Vanguard Order had been successfully activated. However, saving lives was the priority at that time, so he did not use it. When the rock strata crumbled, Su Ziye hastily used the Vanguard Order's effect to save his life.

Having acquired a body of copper and iron, and the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, the rock falling from above wasn't very large, and at most it only caused simple superficial injuries to his enhanced body.

After gaining the strength of an ox, his power increased dramatically beyond normal levels. As for how to break through that huge rock, it was actually quite simple.

Under the same conditions, the force required to move a heavy object is far greater than the force required to destroy it.

Furthermore, the smaller the area of ​​contact, the greater the force; this is basic physics knowledge from junior high school.

So Su Ziye first inserted the iron pickaxe into the rock, and then struck the other end with a rock of equal mass, just like a hammer and nail, forcefully smashing the huge rock blocking the entrance and successfully escaping.

After he briefly explained the underlying principles, everyone stared at him in disbelief.

"Midnight, what can I say about you... Before, you were just clever, but now you're not only strong, but also clever—you're practically a master of both martial arts and intellectual pursuits!"

Zhang Fengmian gave a thumbs up, his eyes filled with admiration.

Having only physical strength is called being simple-minded and physically strong.

Being good at reading alone makes you a bookworm.

When you combine the two, that's a damn wall-mounted wall!

"Tch, just lucky."

Zhou Yu curled his lip, somewhat disdainfully.

"Now I'll lock you up inside. See if you can get out."

Xu Jingwen glanced at her and spoke expressionlessly.

The other person's face immediately fell.

"Su Ziye, I have a personal question I'd like to ask you."

"you say."

"You... did you undergo a divine baptism... no, that's not right, even more than that."

"Hahaha, how could that be? I know the conditions of the Ziye family very well. If he had completed the baptism of the divine object, how could he possibly come to work at my family's mine?"

Zhang Fengmian smiled.

Is that really the case?

A look of suspicion crossed her face.

"He's just naturally strong."

"All right……"

Xu Jingwen felt somewhat regretful.

"Ziye, we really owe you a lot this time. Without you, Old Chen really wouldn't have been saved. I can't even imagine what would have happened to his wife and children if something had happened to him."

Zhang Dehan was still shaken. He gripped Su Ziye's arm tightly, and his eyes were burning with emotion.

The other workers also agreed.

"Yes, thanks to Brother Su."

"If you ask me, boss, give Su a raise!"

"That's right, a raise!"

Everyone said that mine collapses like this are actually very common for miners, and there are almost always casualties each time.

They are all men, the pillars of their families, with elderly parents and young children to support. If something happens to them, their families will basically collapse, so they can empathize with them very much.

"I'm sorry, Mine Manager Zhang, this was indeed Zhou Yu's dereliction of duty. I will go back and report this to the group."

Xu Jingwen also expressed her opinion at this moment, giving Zhou Yu a cold glance.

"We will definitely handle this impartially!"

Zhou Yu's body trembled slightly.

He lowered his head in fear.

Xu Jingwen glanced at Su Ziye triumphantly, her eyes seeming to be seeking praise.

Su Ziye did not comment much on this.

As everyone knows, using gunpowder to blast things is a very common practice in mining operations, and as long as nothing goes wrong, people usually turn a blind eye.

Even if something goes wrong, the higher-ups will generally try to suppress it.

The so-called severe punishment was simply because Zhou Yu had walked right into the line of fire; he knew Xu Jingwen, that's all.

In those people's eyes, miners were simply worthless lives, and even Xu Jingwen thought so. The only reason she came to help was because of Su Ziye.

The reason she kept pursuing Su Ziye was because of her sense of frustration, so for her, chasing Su Ziye was like playing a difficult game.

Su Ziye was 100% certain that if he agreed to date her now, Xu Jingwen would get tired of him within three days.

Relying on others is never a good approach. When you are not strong enough, it is reasonable to bow your head appropriately, but... the most fundamental aspect of power lies not in who you know and being proud of it, but in the fact that you yourself are sitting there and others are proud to know you.

This is his goal.

However... basic manners are still necessary.

"Thank you."

"So you really want to thank me? Why don't you repay me with your body?"

Xu Jingwen smiled gently.

"Excuse my bluntness, but Miss Xu's charm is not that great."

Xu Jingwen: "..."

Zhang Fengmian silently gave a thumbs up from the side.

"Midnight, whether it's something to say or not, you're still the best at pulling strings."

He blinked twice. No... what did I pull at?

Zhang Dehan paid Su Ziye triple his salary today, totaling 1,000 yuan, bringing him one step closer to his goal of 10,000 yuan.

However... because of the mine collapse, the mine will have to stop work for at least half a month to clear the rubble, and the job he finally got is gone again.

On the way back, Xu Jingwen offered to drive them the rest of the way.

Zhang Fengmian looked around the luxurious Rolls-Royce, and was particularly amazed by the dazzling starry sky roof.

The golden Spirit of Victory emblem standing tall at the front of the car gleamed brilliantly in the sun, seemingly braving the wind and waves.

"What do you plan to do with Zhou Yu from today?"

Xu Jingwen asked calmly.

"Shouldn't I be asking you about this?"

"According to company regulations, he will be fined three months' salary."

"Isn't it ironic that a human life is only worth three months' salary?"

Su Ziye shook his head and looked out the window. This was just the kind of world he knew.

"I can fire him if you want, I have that power, and if you agree to date me, I'll share that power with you."

She turned slightly to the side, looked at Su Ziye, and said, her eyes filled with an allure that was completely out of character for her age.

Su Ziye glanced at her. This woman was really something else; she was so young and already knew how to manipulate people's hearts.

These scions of wealthy families were not at all like the incompetent fools people imagined. From a very young age, they were instilled with the skills of managing subordinates and people by their elders.

They are not to be underestimated.

Compared to Xu Jingwen in her previous life, Xu Jingwen in this life is many times more assertive.

"It sounds tempting, but I refuse. Power is meaningless when it's divided up."

Xu Jingwen narrowed her eyes. She admitted that at this moment, Su Ziye was no longer just a challenging game in her eyes.
