Qin Huanyu suddenly picked up Yi Youyou's delicate fishnet stocking foot and kissed it:

"If you find it troublesome, just keep slacking off. Others will take care of it... Speaking of which, Youyou, you came to see me this time because you couldn't stand Qunqun and Yuebao showing off their love every day, right? You must have missed me terribly, right?"

"Don't be so vain!"

Yi Youyou rolled her eyes, hesitated for a few seconds, and then blushed slightly before saying:

"Actually... there is something I want to ask you for help with, Ayu."

"What is it?"

Qin Huanyu asked in a strange tone:

"What kind of relationship do we have? If you need my help, just ask. Youyou, are you... thinking of something really weird?"

"You're going to die! It's not like that!"

Yi Youyou playfully hit Qin Huanyu before smiling wryly:

"It's about my abilities... I've reached a bottleneck in developing my superpowers and haven't improved much in a long time, so I wanted to try it out here... Isn't this the main research direction of your Spirit Element Research Institute?"

"So you wanted me to help you develop superpowers... Of course, that's no problem."

Qin Huanyu readily agreed at first, but then became somewhat curious:

"But Youyou, why did you decide to come to me? Didn't you come from a family with a strong tradition of learning and always believed that the ancient methods were more suitable for cultivating extraordinary powers than the technological methods? What made you change your mind? Is it because I'm just too outstanding?"

“…Ayu, you really are quite arrogant.”

Yi Youyou first made a complaint, then nodded gently:

"But what you said is pretty much true... It's Ling'er's Jade Spirit Sword. That weapon was tailor-made for Ling'er by you, right? This time, Ling'er, who was originally a support healer, got the most kills in the battle of the palace, which opened the eyes of many people. They wanted you to tailor-make exclusive weapons for them. It's just that they are not very familiar with you, Ayu, and they were too embarrassed to ask. But I don't have that concern at all."

"So it's the Jade Spirit Sword..."

Qin Huanyu suddenly realized:

"I did hear Ling'er mention that when we were in the capital, people from the Investigation Bureau and the military approached me to help with testing, hoping to mass-produce the Jade Spirit Sword so that every water-type ability user could have a powerful weapon, but they all failed."

"Yes, I've heard about that too."

Yi Youyou nodded, then looked on with curiosity:

"But why? I heard that the principle behind the Jade Spirit Sword isn't that complicated... Could it be that other technicians can't even make this?"

"No, the Jade Spirit Sword itself is easy to replicate, but there is only one Ling'er."

Qin Huanyu shook her head and explained with a light laugh:

"Most water-type ability users can compress water into high-pressure water jets without difficulty. In fact, their high-pressure water jets are even stronger than Ling'er's. They can cut through iron like mud without the Jade Spirit Sword to increase the pressure."

"But none of them can do what Ling'er can do: immediately recover and reuse the high-pressure water jet and the powder particles in the water jet. They are all one-time sprays."

"The key to the Jade Spirit Sword's devastating success in the battle of the Imperial Palace was the Spirit-Extinguishing Iron powder in the high-pressure water jet. No one is extravagant enough to use Spirit-Extinguishing Iron as a disposable item. Therefore, the Jade Spirit Sword is Ling'er's exclusive weapon. It would be too costly for other water-type ability users to use it."

"So this is ah……"

Yi Youyou suddenly realized, and then became even more excited:

"Then you'll also tailor-make a special weapon for me, Ayu, right?"

"Of course, you are my precious Youyou."

Qin Huanyu used Yi Youyou's feet and legs to pull her into his arms, hugging her and kissing her.

"Don't even mention just a unique weapon; as long as you have enough materials, I can even create a custom set for you."

. . . . .

After spending a day cuddling in the room and doing all the things couples do, Qin Huanyu took Yi Youyou to the Lingsu Research Institute, intending to properly develop her abilities.

Before crafting custom equipment, it's essential to analyze Yi Youyou's abilities scientifically; even Qin Huanyu herself went through this process.

The project on human-machine direct connection technology was established from the outset so that Qin Huanyu could better utilize her abilities. The Lingsu Research Institute is quite professional in this area and has a dedicated team.

Coincidentally, when Qin Huanyu took Yi Youyou for her ability test, Lu Han was also training there, and the two met briefly.

Yi Youyou knew Lu Han before; she even accompanied Qin Huanyu to visit Lu Han in the hospital when he was injured. Based on Yi Youyou's memory, she should have recognized Lu Han at a glance.

But the truth is, Yi Youyou didn't recognize Lu Han. Instead, she looked Lu Han up and down with curiosity and surprise, and asked a question that left both Qin Huanyu and Lu Han somewhat bewildered:

"Who is this girl, Ayu? Could she be your sister? Have you found the blood relative who abandoned you at the orphanage? You two look quite alike~~"

"Huh?" x2

Qin Huanyu and Lu Han exclaimed in surprise at the same time, looking at each other in disbelief.

Then they were even more surprised.

After hearing what Yi Youyou said, Qin Huanyu and Lu Han realized that Lu Han had really changed a lot during this period.

Lu Han used to be a typical tomboy, the cool type of girl.

Lu Han is still as handsome as ever, but she has become even more beautiful with bright eyes and white teeth. Her face, figure and temperament have also become more charming. She is indeed getting closer to Qin Huanyu. In fact, her face is more than 4% similar to Qin Huanyu's. It would not be surprising if they were mistaken for sisters when they walk together.

But the strangest thing is that Qin Huanyu is certain that she and Lu Han are not related by blood at all, and they did not look alike at all before. They are two women with different styles.

But now Lu Han looks more and more like Qin Huanyu's sister, and no one around her has noticed. If Yi Youyou hadn't suddenly pointed it out today, no one would have realized this change at all.

That's a bit too strange.

It's not impossible to explain, though. Lu Han comes to the research institute for training every few days, so everyone has a lot of contact with her and therefore isn't sensitive to changes. Her family and classmates feel the same way.

But this change wasn't a normal growth and development change; it turned Lu Han into almost a different person within a few months... which is a bit abnormal.

Upon this sudden discovery, Qin Huanyu had no choice but to suspend her original plans and conduct a comprehensive examination of Lu Han with the research institute team.

Yi Youyou understood and didn't throw a tantrum; in fact, she was also very curious about it.

The test results came back quickly, and as expected, Lu Han was very healthy, and his physical fitness was even much stronger than before, almost exceeding the limits of normal human values.

In addition, Lu Han's connection with the Jade Network has deepened considerably, and she has become more proficient in using the Jade Network's various abilities. When wearing the goggles given to her by Qin Huanyu, she could almost be considered to possess a low-end version of the Mathematical Magic Eye.

This gave Qin Huanyu and her research team an initial hypothesis.

Perhaps this is a side effect of the Jade Network's power... As those who connect to the Jade Network gain more and more benefits through it, they themselves will begin to resemble Qin Huanyu more and more?

This speculation has caused some concern among the researchers of Ling Su, as they have been relying on the power of the Jade Network for their research during this period.

Female researchers are fine; becoming like Qin Huanyu is considered becoming more beautiful, and what woman wouldn't want to be more beautiful? But apart from a small number of men with special interests, most men don't want to become more effeminate.

As a result, many researchers quickly contacted their long-lost relatives and friends, had video calls with them, and asked them to see if their appearance had changed.

The results were pretty good. The researchers' appearances didn't change much. Only a few female researchers were indeed prettier than before, but the changes were all within the normal range. They became prettier because of their good performance, positive attitude, and improved quality of life over the past two years, which is not a mutation.

This also relieved Qin Huanyu and the researchers a little... It would be too terrifying if the entire Ling Su Research Institute had unknowingly become Qin Huanyu's sisters.

However, Lu Han's obvious changes were also a fact, so Qin Huanyu and the research team discussed the reasons for this phenomenon.

With only Lu Han as a sample, many guesses could not be verified, but Qin Huanyu and the research team still reached a consensus on a certain possibility.

Lu Han's change is likely due to the greater benefits she gained through the Jade Network, and her own deep admiration for Qin Huanyu.

If we consider the Jade Network as a faith circuit, then Qin Huanyu is the faith deity at the terminal and core. Normal Jade Network linkers are ordinary believers; the mental effort they expend in their spare time is equivalent to prayer, and the inspiration and revelation they receive from the Jade Network when needed is equivalent to using divine magic. These believers are not deeply influenced by their faith deity, so they don't undergo any significant changes.

Lu Han not only genuinely admired Qin Huanyu, but also gained many benefits from the Jade Network, even being able to activate a low-end version of the Mathematical Eye with special equipment. This clearly indicates she's not at the level of an ordinary believer; she's at least a chosen saintess, so it's not surprising that she would become closer to her god.

Although Qin Huanyu herself did not want to become a god, and she was even an atheist who believed that true gods were nothing more than higher beings or higher-dimensional life forms that could be analyzed scientifically, her own existence and the operating principle of the Jade Network were indeed very similar to the relationship between gods and faith circuits.

Believers pray devoutly on ordinary days and use divine magic when needed.

Those who connect with the Jade Network also contribute their mental computing power in their spare time, and receive wisdom and inspiration from the Jade Network when needed.

Lu Han's case is an exception, but this exception may not be unrepeatable.

Just as there are often more than one believer who is gifted to become a saint or a chosen one, it is not impossible that a second Lu Han will emerge among the nearly one million Jade Network Linkers in the Baiguang City area.

After all, Qin Huanyu is quite famous in Baiguang City. The streets she often patrols by bicycle have even become tourist attractions. She is also an internet celebrity known as the number one policewoman in Shengzhou. It is only natural that some people would like or even admire her.

While the vast majority of JadeNet linkers provide computing power to JadeNet in their spare time, a very small number of people who genuinely enjoy exploring the truth conduct research every day using the wisdom of JadeNet.

If these hardworking people are also Qin Huanyu's ardent fans... they are very likely to undergo the same changes as Lu Han. If they are boys, it will be even worse; waking up one night to become a beautiful girl will no longer be just a plot in a novel.

Although all of this is still just speculation, Qin Huanyu dared not be careless. She wrote a report overnight to report the situation and asked the higher-ups to arrange manpower to focus on those who met the criteria.

Qin Huanyu didn't hide any of these speculations from Lu Han, who herself didn't care at all; on the contrary, she was very excited. She had always admired Qin Huanyu, for both her beauty and ability. If she could become like Qin Huanyu's twin sister, it would be a dream come true for her.

Qin Huanyu didn't try to persuade him further, since apart from the change in appearance, Lu Han hadn't suffered any adverse effects and had instead gained a lot of benefits.

However, this matter still needs to be monitored. After receiving the reply from above, the Lingsu Research Institute formed a research team to take charge of this matter... Once more people with the same changes as Lu Han are discovered, perhaps the secret of this change can be completely unraveled.

. . . . .

Lu Han's matter delayed Qin Huanyu for more than a day. By the time this matter was temporarily resolved, and before she could even help Yi Youyou develop her superpowers, Nangong Yue's research team arrived. They were going to work with Qin Huanyu to develop a brainwave control system for drones.

Qin Huanyu had promised Nangong Yue this matter back in the capital, and according to custom, it should be done in order of priority.

However, Yi Youyou had some personal feelings towards Nangong Yue. She was no longer as understanding as she was when facing Lu Han's changes. Instead, she threw a tantrum, wanting to cut in line and demanding that Qin Huanyu help her develop her superpowers and create her own special weapon first.

Qin Huanyu tried to coax him twice but failed, so she could only suffer in silence... She didn't want to break her promise to Nangong Yue, nor did she want to upset Yi Youyou.

Someone else might have been too busy to handle it all, but Qin Huanyu came up with a solution that satisfied both.

She doesn't have the ability to multitask, but she does have the capacity for multi-threaded thinking; it just takes more effort and makes her a little more tired.

Qin Huanyu's main body stayed by Yi Youyou's side, helping her develop superpowers and create her own special weapon. At the same time, a thought thread was separated and left in the computer of the Lingsu Research Institute, working like an AI to cooperate with Nangong Yue's team in researching drone brainwave control technology.

Qin Huanyu had exchanged and discussed a lot with Nangong Yue about the research on drone brainwave control technology when they were in Shen Du. Many of the technologies already existed, and the ideas were relatively clear. All that was needed was to implement the ideas and verify them.

This was not difficult for Qin Huanyu and Nangong Yue's top teams, and the cooperation between the two sides progressed very smoothly.

However, regarding the development of Yi Youyou's superpowers, it didn't take long before a conclusion was reached that even Yi Youyou herself was shocked by.

"What? You're saying my superpower isn't actually controlling weight? That's impossible!"

Yi Youyou stared in disbelief at her ability test report:

“I’ve used my own skills for over 20 years, how could I get something so basic wrong? Is there something wrong with your equipment, Ayu? Or are you seeing things? I told you last night not to do it so many times…”

"Even if I do it many times, my eyes won't get blurry!"

Qin Huanyu first retorted with some embarrassment and annoyance, before patiently explaining:

“You’ve misunderstood. I didn’t say your ability isn’t weight manipulation; it’s just that the term isn’t entirely accurate. Because the essence of changing an object’s weight isn’t changing its mass, but rather changing the coefficient of force, your ability should be called ‘coefficient manipulation.’”

"Coefficient manipulation..."

Yi Youyou pondered the name, still feeling it was unbelievable, like someone who had been a handsome young man for 20 years suddenly discovering that she was actually a beautiful girl.

Qin Huanyu continued to patiently explain:

“Youyou, you are a top student who graduated from Shendu University. Your knowledge of physics is definitely not much worse than mine, an illiterate person who has never been to school, right? You know what weight is, right? When we say that something weighs a certain number of kilograms or tons, it is not very rigorous or accurate. Because tons, kilograms, and grams are actually units of mass. They describe the mass of an object, not its weight.”

"It's just that most people don't usually have the opportunity to leave Earth, and the gravity coefficient is the same on Earth, so it's not a big deal for ordinary people to use units of mass to describe weight. But we can't do that. We must be rigorous when we study science and explore the truth."

"Youyou, you have never had a proper understanding of your own abilities. This is because you have been influenced by this wrong but universally accepted statement. From childhood to adulthood, you have taken it for granted that mass units are used as weight units."

"The truly rigorous unit of weight should be N, which is equal to mass multiplied by the gravitational coefficient. The weight of a 1000-ton object is approximately 9800N, which is a more rigorous scientific description."

"Your ability to change the weight of an object does not actually change its mass, but rather its gravitational coefficient."

"For example, you can make a 10-gram stone weigh 10 tons. It doesn't mean you actually change the stone's mass to 10 tons, but rather that you change the stone's gravitational coefficient so that a 10-gram stone can generate 98000 N of gravity, the same as an object with a mass of 10 tons. That's the essence of your ability, Youyou."

"emmm..."

Yi Youyou thought about it carefully and realized that this seemed to be the case.

But she still found it hard to believe:

"Ayu, how did you determine this?"

"A very simple chemical test can verify this."

Qin Huanyu had clearly planned this all along; she snapped her fingers, and immediately someone from the research team brought over a piece of quicklime and a cup of water.

"We calculated that this cup of water and this piece of quicklime would react completely upon contact, until both are exhausted and turn into quicklime. Youyou, you can use your ability on the quicklime and let them react. See if there is any obvious residue of quicklime and water. This will verify whether your ability changes the mass or the coefficient."

Chapter 185 Youyou: Can I become the strongest in the world? Really?

The simple chemistry experiment ended quickly.

Just as Qin Huanyu said, even though Yi Youyou increased the weight of quicklime by hundreds of times, the quicklime still reacted completely with the water and there was no obvious residue. This shows that the mass of quicklime did not actually increase; it just became heavier with the same mass.

"My ability is actually controlling coefficients?"

Yi Youyou's expression was still like she was dreaming:

"How could this be? Even middle school students know this simple principle, so why have I never thought of it all these years?"
