I manage female characters in all the heavens.

Jiuge didn't answer, he just breathed heavily, sweat dripping from his forehead down his cheeks and mixing with the soil to form mud.

"Maido" bent down, leaned close to her, and said, word by word, "All those skills you honed through life and death can't even last a minute against me."

"You think the strong shouldn't be taught a lesson by the weak? But the reality is, you are the real weak one."

Jiuge's eyes reddened, but she stubbornly refused to shed tears, biting her lip so hard that blood seeped out.

"Maido" straightened up, turned around and took a few steps, then stopped again.

Do you know why you can't beat me?

The wine-singing man remained silent.

"Because you haven't systematically learned how to fight. The experience you gained in the wasteland is fragmented and intuitive. You can win against weaker enemies by instinct, but against someone who truly understands combat, you're just meat on a chopping board."

"You need to understand one fact: the education in Dragon Bone Village that you look down on, even the most basic education, is far superior to what you have figured out on your own."

"Of course, you can also choose to continue not learning, live in your own dream, and be the strong person you envision yourself to be."

"Then one day in the future, you will be easily killed by someone like me, whom you consider weak. That is your freedom."

"Maido" left, leaving only Jiuge lying on the ground, wailing in pain.

Qiu Shi, who had witnessed the whole thing from the shadows, gasped: "Xiaomai Duo really went all out. It seems she was really angered by that drinking song."

"And she's incredibly bold to actually load bullets into a gun! Isn't she afraid of something going wrong?"

Bai Yuekui leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, and chuckled softly: "I think this isn't boldness, but confidence."

"She was confident that she could retaliate before Jiuge could fire, thus avoiding harm to herself, which is why she chose to do so."

Qiu Shi was somewhat doubtful: "Is it really that bad, Boss Bai? Mai Duo is only 11 years old, and she has only mastered the Returning to Origin state for less than half a year. How could she have such control over her body?"

Even within the Awakener Squad, those who can counter firearms at close to medium range using only physical skills without employing source potential are extremely rare.

Having strong physical skills does not necessarily mean having strong source potential or ultimate strength, but it does mean having strong control over one's body, which is very beneficial for driving the awakening of source potential.

Source potential is the superpower generated by the activation of special genes in the body by the source of life.

Awakening one's source potential can be roughly divided into three steps.

The first step is to generate willpower: through extreme environments and emotions, the electrical current of nerve synapses is amplified, thereby forming a bioelectromagnetic field that drives the life source.

The second step is the turbulent flow of the bio-electromagnetic field: when the bio-electromagnetic field reaches the threshold, the bio-source matter will enter a chaotic and high-speed operation, which is the turbulent state.

The third step is to unleash potential: In a turbulent state, the life essence will stimulate the whole body. At this time, relax your mind and body, close your five senses, eliminate all subjective influences on the essence, and let the essence spontaneously stimulate you, penetrating into places you cannot normally reach, and activating specific non-coding DNA.

In this way, the potential of the source will be awakened, and various superpowers will be gained, such as invisibility, passing through walls, hypnosis, and X-ray vision.

In the entire process of awakening the source essence, the first step of generating a sufficiently strong will is generally the most difficult, but Dragonbone Village has specialized equipment to assist in this process, so it is not considered difficult.

Since the turbulence of source matter is a spontaneous process that does not require active intervention, the difficulty of awakening the potential of source matter naturally falls on the third step.

Relaxing the mind and body, shutting out the five senses without losing consciousness—it sounds simple, but it's difficult to do. Even in ancient martial arts, this is a very profound state that normal people simply cannot achieve.

Longgu Village inherited a portion of the legacy of the Heluo civilization and also has equipment to assist in completing this process, but it requires the user to have martial arts skills.

The level of martial arts training is directly related to the degree of control over the physical body. Therefore, the more advanced a person's martial arts skills are, the greater the probability that they can complete the process with the help of equipment. That is why Dragon Bone Village strongly requires everyone to learn martial arts from a young age. The importance of martial arts is almost equivalent to the state of returning to one's original state.

"Maiduo" is only 11 years old, yet she already possesses such a profound level of martial arts according to Boss Bai. Qiu Shi finds it hard to imagine what kind of genius could reach such a level.

Bai Yuekui stretched and sighed, "There are always geniuses in the world who are born at the finish line of others. Perhaps, our Maiduo is one of those geniuses?"

Qiu Shi turned around and looked at Bai Yuekui's lazy appearance, and couldn't help but sigh: "Speaking of geniuses, who in this world can compare to you, Boss Bai?"

Bai Yuekui's voice lowered: "What kind of genius am I? I'm just a useless piece of trash who can't save anything."

"But since I, a piece of trash, survived to the end, it is my inescapable responsibility to overcome the ecosystem."

Watching Bai Yuekui's departing figure, Qiu Shi slapped himself across the face.

"That foul mouth of his has reminded Boss Bai of painful memories!"

"Oh dear, what can I do to please Boss Bai and make her happy?" Qiu Shi patted his head, looking somewhat troubled.

Boss Bai may look young and beautiful, but in reality, she raised all the elderly people in Longgu Village from childhood. It's no exaggeration to say that she is everyone's adoptive mother.

If you upset your adoptive mother, you should give her something to show your filial piety and appease her.

Qiu Shi also left, without any intention of helping Jiu Ge, who was lying on the ground.

Jiu Ge lay on the playground for half an hour before slowly crawling to the clinic for treatment.

The next day, she came to school with one arm and one leg in casts, and her face still bore many marks of being beaten, drawing everyone's attention.

Yesterday she got a zero on the test, and today she's in this terrible state. This made the friends who had mocked "Maido" yesterday tremble with fear and rush over to apologize to "Maido".

The righteous class monitor is so ruthless, it's terrifying!

Seeing Jiu Ge's miserable state, Xia Dou pulled "Mai Duo" aside and whispered something to her.

“Maido, could it really be you…” Her eyes were full of doubt.

"Maido" revealed an evil smile: "If you dare to make me lose face, don't blame me for cutting you down with my knife!"

As she spoke, she made a chop gesture and slashed down hard, whether intentionally or not, she slashed Xia Dou's shoulder.

Xia Dou cried out in pain and jumped away, giving Mai Duo a pitiful look before ignoring her.

Because he had lost an arm and a leg, Jiu Ge had to exert a great deal of effort to finally get upstairs and sit in his seat.

Her expression remained indifferent as always, but the deep resentment in her eyes was clearly visible.

Although she was sitting right next to "Maido", she didn't even glance at "Maido".

Ignoring the drinking songs, "Maiduo" took out the magnetic levitation skateboard she had been working on for a month and continued to modify it.

It was a metal plate about 0.5 meters long and 20 centimeters wide, with a jumble of coils and circuit boards on the bottom, full of the aesthetic of a wasteland assembly.

This is the semi-finished magnetic levitation skateboard that "Maido" spent a month making.

Previously, she had never been able to make it float successfully, but last night when she was beating up Jiu Ge, a certain technical point in her mind suddenly clicked, so she came to try it out first thing this morning.

She took out a screwdriver and a welding torch and started working directly in the classroom. In a few quick movements, she modified several of the coils and then connected the power.

hum-

The metal plate emitted a low-frequency hum, and a ring of pale blue light appeared at its bottom. Then it slowly rose up and hovered steadily at a height of about one meter above the ground.

Chapter 195 The old guys are bored out of their minds

"It's done?!"

"Maido" was stunned for a moment, then jumped up with great joy, almost throwing the screwdriver in her hand into the air!

Damn, a hand-made magnetic levitation device, or even one that directly utilizes the Earth's magnetic field for levitation, who else can do that!

She cheered and jumped from the second floor to the playground on the first floor with her skateboard to conduct the test.

Xia Dou and the others rushed out of the classroom and leaned on the railing to admire the deity.

It's no secret what "Maido" has been up to lately. If she actually manages to create a magnetic levitation skateboard that can be used to carry people into the sky, it would be like a miracle for these kids who are still in school.

Unfortunately, after a series of tests, the performance was a huge disappointment to everyone.

This thing is still a half-finished product. Its maximum speed is only 1 meter per second, its maximum hovering height cannot exceed 1.2 meters, its load cannot exceed 40 kilograms, and its direction is extremely difficult to control. It's just a toy.

"Maido" was also somewhat disappointed, but at least it actually floated up, which was a milestone.

As long as we continue to solve a series of problems such as energy, power, and control, it will not just be a toy!

She dragged her skateboard upstairs and saw Jiu Ge struggling to get back to the classroom.

After thinking for a moment, she made a quick decision.

"Maido" pushed the floating skateboard in front of Jiuge and said, "This is for you."

Jiu Ge was stunned.

"Didn't you break a leg? It's inconvenient for you to walk. Even though it's been put back in place, you'll need at least a month or two of rest before you can walk normally again."

"Research on this thing can only go so far for now, so I'll just give it to you for transportation."

"You can sit halfway up and use your other leg to push off the ground to control the direction; it's better than using a cane."

Maiduo's tone was casual, as if she were giving away an insignificant little trinket.

Jiuge looked at her, then at the skateboard beside him, his lips trembled slightly, but he still didn't say anything.

This skateboard was made by "Maido" after a month of hard work, and it can be described as her masterpiece.

After being brutally beaten by "Maido," Jiu Ge received such a thoughtful gift from her, and his feelings were undoubtedly complicated.

She had no idea whether "Maido" disliked her or cared about her.

"Maido" didn't care whether she accepted it or not, stood up, and dusted off her hands: "Class is about to start, hurry back to the classroom. Remember to study hard and make progress every day. If you dare to hand in a blank paper again in a month, I'll break your other leg too."

She strode away, leaving Jiu Ge alone in a daze, with a humming magnetic levitation skateboard floating beside her.

What exactly is she trying to do?

Jiuge hesitated for a moment, then used his only movable right hand to hold the edge of the skateboard, and found that the thing felt surprisingly stable.

She hesitated for a moment, but eventually sat on the skateboard and used it to support half of her body weight instead of her left leg.

The skateboard dropped about ten centimeters in height, but it remained steadily suspended.

She tried to control the direction using her body weight and right foot, and the skateboard floated up, carrying her forward at a speed similar to normal walking, and it was very smooth with almost no bumps.

She even felt that it was more useful than her legs.

She sat on the skateboard, holding her left hand, which had been twisted off and then reattached, and suddenly felt a lump in her throat.

But she quickly took a deep breath to suppress that emotion and put her indifferent mask back on.

She looked up at "Maiduo" in the classroom, and the light in her eyes gradually became firm.

I want to learn.

I want to learn all the knowledge that "Maido" taught me, and I want to become stronger than "Maido".

Then, one day in the future, I will use what she taught me to defeat her fair and square!

At lunchtime, when I get home from school...

Ulan Aodeng stood at the door and saw her return looking relaxed. He asked in a deep voice, "I heard you beat up that little girl?"
