Chapter 599: The Base Of Vitality

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After the group photo, Fang Ning took a tour around the building of the Scientific Academy for Vitality.

As compared to other sanctuaries for scientific researches, this newly built place had no foundation, and had a blank history. Other than some experts that were somewhat reputable, there was nothing else that was praiseworthy.

Nonetheless, in this era, there was something that other scientific research institutes did not provide.

Which was safety!

When the yellow dog roped in experts, over half of them were attracted by this.

As leading experts, they were usually more sensitive to the danger of the Era of Vitality.

Those who knew nothing feared nothing. The more one knew, the more one would realize how frightening the era was.

Pieces of knowledge from the past were slowly becoming ineffective. One might leave home for work in the morning, and would come back tomorrow night as another person...

If was not for the existence of the Venerable Dragon God who swept all evildoers clean due to his irresistible force and his diligence in attending to all affairs, a part of the people might not even be able to be present now.

This was because scientist’s brains were the favorites of many evildoers.

That was right. When faced with an unknown, mysterious power, ordinary people were that weak.

However, over here, it was Morality City. Only those who passed the evaluation of the Venerable Dragon God were able to enter, which ensured the safety of this place.

The one thing was that they were clueless that the yellow dog actually boasted.

Previously, some devils did appear here.

People like Zhi Nan, Elder Ancestor Bai, and even Nie Yuan, had actually entered Morality City.

After all, this was not the System’s System Space, it was not impenetrable.

Nevertheless, these people that entered and exited Morality City had a similarity, which was that they never had blood on their hands as they were not as unscrupulous as Ling Yunzi.

This had something to do with them living for a long time on Earth. Since they knew of Vigilante A’s power, they purposely avoided it.

On the opposite, these powerhouses that had just descended from the upper realm would not give a damn about Vigilante A.

“From Level 1 to Level 10, it’ll be the Sorting Departments of fundamental theories. They’ll be in charge of rearranging existing scientific theories, look for parts that violate the present, and arrange them into files.” Beside him, the yellow dog explained earnestly.

“Give me an example.” Fang Ning took a glance at the neat office, and found that they were already people working in it.

Thick books were carried around, whereby the covers were carved with complicated scientific symbols that were hard to comprehend.

“For example, the principle of physical flight violates past physics knowledge, how can a person rise up to the sky without foundation? Many people are highly interested in this. At the end of the day, it is everybody’s dream to fly like birds, yet replacement tools created by humans can’t truly satisfy these dreams. Main characters in most literary works are given wings, and many games have pieces of wing equipment, which are done to satisfy this dream...

“Then the problems come. Why are only powerhouses above Pond-level able to fly? Pond-level powerhouses can communicate with Heaven and Earth, and can release their magical powers, does this create a cause and effect relationship with physical flight? How do they communicate with Heaven and Earth? How do they carry out the release of their magical energies?” The yellow dog gabbled away.

Evidently, as an overachiever, Fang Ning’s question hit the nail on its head.

On the other hand, Brett the black dog who was further behind could only circle the outside parameters as it was the guard dog. It could only watch enviously while its partner kept on flattering their owner.

What exactly was the use of knowledge? It did not understand, it only knew that knowledge could be used to win over its owner’s heart.

It wondered, ‘Should I be reading books to gain knowledge as well?

‘Impossible, never in my life. I just feel sleepy whenever I read those books, “Animal World” is still the best, I should try reading “Anaconda” too next time.’

While Fang Ning listened, he nodded. In the past, he only followed the prescribed order whenever he cultivated, such that he followed whatever steps given by the System to cultivate an ability. Basically, he knew that they were so but did not know why they were so.

Training was just like driving a car. Learning to drive was not a difficult task but one might not necessarily understand the principle behind the internal combustion engine, and the mechanical linkages in it. Only professionals would go into those aspects.

When he cultivated the three great divine abilities, he cultivated essence, Qi, and spirit. Still, he only cultivated according to what was recorded, and was half-baked about the true principles behind them.

It was so much so that he was actually oblivious about the difference between vitality’s intrinsic quality and fundamental particles of the real world.

Ultimately, he was just an ordinary person who was also lazy and slothful. Once he learned to be content with whatever situation he was in, he could not be like a high achiever, and could never study about something so intensively or seek the essence of a matter.

He neither knew nor had the eagerness to dig into things so meticulously.

In spite of that, he had money and power, thus he could hire people to perform those studies for him, and all he needed to do was to understand the results. In any case, the ancient times had passed, whereby the modern era stressed more on teamwork, and to exercise comparative advantages.

After Fang Ning had those thoughts, he immediately felt very cheerful but his enthusiasm was dampened very quickly by the System.

“Do you even have any money left? You’ll only be using mine, so all the results should belong to me.”

“Belong to you? Can you even understand them?” Fang Ning was unconcerned. “In the end, I’ll have to explain them for you anyway, you don’t even understand basic scientific theories. You only know how to farm spots to level up, I’m afraid that you don’t even understand your own origin, yet you’re trying to learn all these?”

“...” The System had nothing else to say in return, it was after a long time before it furiously said, “You talk like you know very well.”

“At least I know where humans came from, and know where my roots are.” Fang Ning uttered proudly.

“I know where my roots are too, your online kimchi game.” The System answered confidently.

“Uh, I also know how I evolved from a single cell animal, do you know how you were formed?” Fang Ning took the opportunity to dig some information. Back then, the System did vaguely mention about it but later on, it never disclosed anything anymore.

In the event of the scientific research of the Era of Vitality, he was wondering if he could have the aid of the spiritual energy and methods from it to investigate the System’s origin and principle.

In that case, perhaps he could turn from the guest into the host, by which he could control if he wanted to be seized or to have his body back...’Wouldn’t that mean that I’ll have another fully-automated auxiliary plug-in?’ he pondered.

“Hmph, of course I know how I was agglomerated but I’m not telling you.” The System was mad. “In case you try to look for my loopholes.

“I’m sure you don’t know, don’t try to twist your words. As an honest system, you should admit your shortcomings honestly, so that you’ll be able to improve for a long time.” Fang Ning spoke in an earnest tone as he was trying to deceive it.

“Uh, I was able to be agglomerated thanks to your indolence...” The System blurted out.

Instantly, Fang Ning burst with flames after hearing that, he responded angrily, “Impossible, there are many more people who are lazier than me. The people who are so lazy that they were on news, why didn’t they cause the formation of a seizing system?”

“That’s because when the incident of the flame meteors happened, they didn’t play games on their own and even hit their heads...” The System answered resolutely.

“See, everything you say is just an idea, you know nothing about what’s truly involved in the evolution of the fundamental maxim. This is also one of the sources of the establishment of the Research Institute for Vitality, we want to find out the purpose of flame meteors, and how it actually changed the maxims on Earth...” Fang Ning shook his head as he explained.

“What’s the point of grasping this knowledge? I can level up and train anyway, it’ll be enough since my battle skills are unparalleled.” The System was scornful.

“You’re really ignorant. Regardless of how good Sun Wukong’s fighting abilities were, he couldn’t withstand Ru Lai’s Buddha’s palm anyway, could he? The root cause was that the Buddha had a good grasp of how Heaven and Earth operates, it’s not something that Sun Wukong could’ve countered with just his fighting abilities.” Fang Ning meant well as he clarified.

“I don’t understand. You can control the results then if you want to.” At last, the System yielded.
