Resurrection Empire-Chapter 838 - 321: "Mercury", Passed
Fake genius: At the age of twelve, became a Level Nine Actuarial Programmer, and at fifteen, passed dual verification as a Level Nine hacker and Information Flow Shield Master, beginning to control the core departments of leading enterprises.
True genius: From novice to entry-level in just three days, from employment to becoming a senior executive in less than one day.
This is the answer sheet Ren Zhong submitted after spending a total of four days at Deep Communication Group.
No need to articulate it with words, nor does he need anyone's praise; his achievements are laid plainly and straightforwardly before everyone. Everyone can see it, and everyone will know.
A truly strong person who can control his destiny only needs a stage he desires, even if it is just three inches, to perform a perfect dance.
In fact, ever since awakening on Source Star, Ren Zhong has been waiting for such a stage to genuinely prove himself.
He has already completed half at Purple Crystal Mining.
If he had fully joined Purple Crystal Mining and used his Resurrection Ability to constantly steal results in advance and then reverse change the status quo, he could today achieve the same status at Purple Crystal Mining as he did at Deep Communication Group.
But he didn't do that; instead, he reined in himself.
There are two reasons for this.
First, regardless of how Purple Crystal Mining struggles, it cannot change the reality of being a sunset industry. The Thousand Mines Plan is already very mature, and even if Ren Zhong joins, he can only enhance it but cannot significantly improve it. Purple Crystal Mining cannot offer him the highest status.
Second, Ren Zhong is not someone who enjoys being a Time Thief. Even though such a life would be easier, he knows he actually has the ability to do better with real skills; he just lacks a stage. "Stealing" is only a temporary measure when he has no alternatives, not his true nature.
Ren Zhong holds the cheat of resurrection and restart in his hands, an unbeatable shortcut, which he has always been using.
But it does not mean he truly enjoys it.
Ren Zhong's father used to be an ordinary person but taught Ren Zhong many lifelong valuable principles.
When he was in middle school, he discussed the issue of seeing classmates cheating in exams with his father.
At that time, Ren Zhong's father said, "Some things appear to be shortcuts, enabling less effort to gain excessive return. Taking shortcuts seems good; it can even become addictive and create a sense of dependency. But life is not always filled with shortcuts. Once you get used to taking shortcuts, when faced with real challenges, you tend to be at a loss and ready to give up easily. Dependency on shortcuts is the biggest difficulty in life, because it is not external, but internal, within your heart. No matter what you do, complete it step by step diligently, summarizing your gains and losses with each advance or failure, honing your willpower. Then, when faced with a seemingly insurmountable challenge, you'll always find a way and obtain the willpower to support yourself until the end. Being practical is the true shortcut to achieving the highest goals."
Ren Zhong thought about this deeply for a long time, accepted his father's words, and took them as his life credo, continuing to fight until he collapsed from illness.
Ever since awakening on Source Star, he has been "cheating," taking shortcuts and benefiting from them, but deep down, he has never achieved true self-satisfaction, nor does he acknowledge his current self. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Now, he fearlessly completed something that seemed impossible for ordinary people.
He barely reclaimed his past credo.
Ren Zhong himself was somewhat surprised by this result.
Upon closer reflection, it also seemed natural.
He imagined he would do well, but the final outcome exceeded his expectations.
Before truly showcasing his talent, he was unsure of the current upper limit of his intelligence, only using the achievements of his previous life as self-reference.
Now he finally understands that the enhancement of his Brain Reaction Index has provided him with much more than simply faster reactions; his intelligence has genuinely elevated.
He is different from everyone else on Source Star.
He possesses a brain with no limits.
Half an hour later, Ren Zhong, who became a Seventh Level Citizen, achieved true "freedom" and "power."
The first change in his life was the submission and "sincere" apology from Chongyi's Wang family.
In the conversation, the eldest daughter of the Wang family, who inherited the authority of Chongyi and Tianyuan Military Industry, almost kneeled before him.
