Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

Using reading time to level up yields far more experience than self-study.

Most players come to the game to play, not to learn knowledge.

However, Bai Ye was surprised to find that after he used the experience learning skill, this knowledge was automatically instilled into his brain.

He not only learned the skills, but he also actually understood the medical principles.

"strangeness……"

Bai Ye vaguely felt that something was wrong.

He closed the book, pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized the contradiction.

If one truly learns theoretical knowledge in a game, why didn't anyone bring that knowledge out of the game in their previous life?

It's worth noting that some of the advanced technologies in *Arknights Online* are far more advanced than those on Earth. Even though the systems are different, there are still things we can learn from each other. After all, science is a practical method for understanding the universe, and even if the knowledge gained is not as advanced as the technology we already possess, it can still be summarized and organized into the existing scientific framework.

However, Bai Ye had never heard of Terra technology being used on Earth in his previous life. Otherwise, the Earth Alliance would have already sent a large number of experts into the game to learn, even if the project was conducted in secret, completely sealed off, and without any information leakage. Ordinary people would have noticed it, and some hardcore content creators would have posted this groundbreaking discovery on their websites.

Or perhaps there really are super hardcore gamers who just love learning the skills and knowledge in the game. They are medical enthusiasts and have actually learned the medical theories in the game.

Why didn't he bring it back to reality?

Even if there are 10 such players, 6 of them will be too proud to admit their findings, and 3 will keep them secret for fear of being exposed and having their work dissected. But there will always be one player with exceptional awareness, noble character, and a willingness to contribute to the progress of humanity who will step forward and share their discoveries.

No.

Absolutely not.

Bai Ye gasped.

This is a terrifying thing. This knowledge is real, yet all the Earth players are blind to it. No one realizes it, as if an invisible veil is covering it all up.

Everyone believes that games are developed based on the artistic rendering of reality. Even the hard-core, realistic theoretical knowledge within them is merely an Easter egg, and its value lies only in reflecting the "realism" of the game.

……

Even knowing that the game world was actually reality hadn't been as impactful for Bai Ye as it is now. After all, he had transmigrated, so the game becoming reality wasn't so hard to understand.

Unfortunately, at this moment, Bai Ye sensed something strange for the first time, as if a hammer had struck him hard, shattering an invisible barrier. Only now did he truly realize the strangeness of the game from his previous life: it was clearly a real world, so why had the players from his previous life never truly discovered it?

Even he subconsciously ignored this point after transmigrating, and never had the thought, "Why didn't I notice this when I was a veteran player in my previous life?"

He simply accepted the "fact" that the game had become a real-world phenomenon.

"Oh, I know."

But they never asked "why".

Is it really just that the game system's packaging is too deceptive?

This cannot be explained by so-called "habitual thinking".

Rather, some entity is deliberately preventing players from thinking in this way; it forcefully cuts off and blocks this thought.

This is a conceptual shielding and blocking!

"As expected, you're not simple..."

Bai Ye marveled at the game system that connected two worlds, two lives, and blurred the lines between reality and virtuality.

At this moment, Bai Ye's thoughts were clearer than ever before. A certain blockage in the past was suddenly cleared up and flowed smoothly.

Other game systems strive for realism.

The game system is even more interesting; it tries to package the real world so that players perceive reality as virtual.

"So you really do have ulterior motives!"

Bai Ye laughed.

At this moment, the goal that he had suppressed in his heart resurfaced.

That is to seek the truth.

Why did he time travel?

Why would a game truly resemble a real world?

Why does the system obscure the thoughts of all humanity on Earth?

What exactly is OceanCat, the company that published the game?

What exactly is Center-AI, the Alliance's ultimate AI, which claims to be able to control all artificial intelligence? Was it really created by humans on Earth?

Bai Ye was not afraid.

The unknown is not scary.

Ignorance is the most terrifying thing.

Isn't this world also a new starry sky?

The director of the orphanage in his previous life had told him: "Don't be afraid of the darkness, because the darker the night, the brighter the starlight will shine."

"The universe holds unknowns, which brings us joy because it represents the adventure of unraveling those mysteries that awaits us."

"That is an unspoken, very small, very grand, very important fairy tale about courage and wisdom."

Bai Ye laughed; he wasn't intimidated.

Players are never afraid of challenges; for him, this is the beginning of a new adventure.

"Use experience to improve your skill level."

Bai Ye brought up the system panel and allocated the experience points to the skills he had just learned.

[Skill Level Up]

[Basic Medical Theory lv0→lv10max]

Almost all the experience gained from leveling up and harvesting experience from players is channeled into skills.

He has mastered basic medical theory, and now his knowledge in this area is almost identical to that of Rhodes Island's medical operators.

Moreover, he has the ability to integrate and apply knowledge, and in this aspect alone, few people can compare to him.

Bai Ye has turned off the e-book feature on her personal terminal; she no longer needs it.

The content in e-books is just a medium. Now, Bai Ye has acquired more knowledge through this medium, much of which has not been written into basic textbooks.

Moreover, this is only the first volume.

He drank tea, and then Bai Ye opened a new subject.

Rhode Island Clinical Medicine - by Kelsey

I love learning!

Everything I've learned is due to my own hard work!

System, add some points!

-------------------------------------

While Bai Ye was engrossed in "studying," the Typing Girl was on the verge of a breakdown.

This morning she just completed her job transfer in the Human Resources Department, from a logistics officer to an assistant to the field supervisor.

However, she has now learned a secret that is not exactly a secret, but is already known to the higher-ups at Rhodes Island—the newly appointed department head will be leaving the ship to carry out a field mission…

What the hell is this!

What high-ranking personnel would leave Rhodes Island headquarters so easily?

Um, you mean Dr. Kal'tsit personally went out on a mission and then brought people back?

That's alright then... Of course, we can't confuse this with the old woman's affairs.

However, most of the high-ranking officials at the level of general manager do not leave the island easily; they are practically the highest-ranking officials below the Rhodes Island elders.

If such a decision-making body were to encounter an accident outside, the loss would be enormous.

Upon learning this absurd news, Typing Girl immediately went to Bai Ye's dormitory and knocked on the door.

……

The knocking startled Bai Ye from his reverie. He stood up, stretched, and then walked toward the door of his dormitory room.

Through the peephole, Bai Ye saw the petite Lateran girl, Typing Girl, standing outside the door.

"Please come in." He quickly opened the door.

"You're preparing to disembark?!"

As soon as I entered, the typist asked me a barrage of questions.

At this moment, the girl crossed her arms and glared fiercely at Bai Ye, her expression quite interesting.

This was the first time Bai Ye had ever seen her with such a rich array of expressions.

He quickly pulled the girl into the dormitory and then closed the door.

We can't let any passing operators misunderstand!

Chapter Fourteen Neighbors

"Eh?!"

Before the typing girl could react, Bai Ye pulled her into the room.

The girl was startled and almost pulled out the guard gun from her arms.

Don't be fooled by her gentle, office-like appearance; it's all just a facade. Those in the know understand—no Lateran is easy to deal with; their firearms symbolize the Lord's glory and blessings.

Moreover, to outsiders, the former seems more direct and terrifying than the latter...

However, Typing Girl quickly realized what was happening and pressed Bai Ye for an answer: "Are you really planning to leave the ship?"

"Okay, let's go when we're ready." Bai Ye nodded, then looked at the Lateran girl in front of him with a look of satisfaction.

"Isn't this ridiculous? The supervisor just leaves the island like that? Um... what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with me?"

Typing Girl felt extremely uncomfortable under Bai Ye's gaze. She was lecturing him, but Bai Ye showed no anger or annoyance. Instead, he just stared at her like that, and for a moment, she forgot what she was going to say next.

"I'm very pleased that I have subordinates who care about me so quickly," Bai Ye replied with a smile.

After saying that, he found a cup and poured water for the typist.

"Stop joking! I'm not concerned about you, the most important problem is on my end!" Typing Girl subconsciously took the water glass, then realized what she meant and glared at Bai Ye angrily, "Supervisor, your assistant just applied to be transferred from the logistics department to work under you, and then you tell me you're planning to leave the ship!"

"My assistant's arrival couldn't be more timely!"

Miss Typing was speechless. Did she mean she was going to leave the ship too? She was doing just fine on the Rhodes Island main ship, so why would she want to go out and suffer?

Saying that poetry and distant places are all fake!

Long journeys in Terra are nothing but danger and suffering.

All she ever wanted was a peaceful life, but now it seems she's drifting further and further away from that goal...

'Perhaps I'll have to go out with him... Oh well, that's fine too. He looks quite weak; it'll be good for him.'

The typist sized up Bai Ye, but because of her low access level, she was unaware of his test data. Like any ordinary person, the girl was deceived by Bai Ye's deceptively charming appearance, subconsciously assuming that he was weak and incapable of fighting.

Bai Ye, of course, had no idea that his little assistant was already adding drama to his life. He shook his head and said, "You've come at just the right time."

"I will feel at ease leaving this matter to you."

"..." The typist was speechless after hearing this.

Although not having to go out is a good thing, I still feel that Bai Ye's words are a bit strange.

It was as if he was making his final arrangements.

Well, actually, there's nothing wrong with what you said.

Bai Ye couldn't just leave like that. He planned to take advantage of the time while the workshop was making equipment for him to handle the follow-up work.

The work had already been arranged, but Bai Ye still needed to leave a backup plan, since he would be far away from the ship afterward, and with communication cut off, he would be unable to continuously issue orders.

The new assistant is capable of solving this problem; she can help Bai Ye oversee the work and tasks of subsequent departments.

"I feel like I jumped into a pit without thinking!" The typist was speechless after hearing Bai Ye's plan. What bad luck!

"Leaving the ship is something that must be done. As I said before, the situation in Terra is complex and volatile. If we don't make arrangements early, there is a high possibility of big problems."
