Starting with Proficiency Panel-Chapter 761: See the Tomorrow (New Book Content)

However, what caught attention were those eyes that were extraordinarily bright, as if a pair of light bulbs were hanging there, making him look full of spirit.

Unfortunately, physically...

He felt a slight pain in his waist and the inside of his left thigh. The feeling emerged that if it continued, it would be deadly.

Not quite like when I was twenty-five or twenty-six anymore.

Li Qing was very aware of the changes in his body, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that as long as he could light up this white ball made up of 365 white lines, like a bright lamp hanging in his mind, then he had reached entry level.

These days he only felt his mind was clear, learning speed very fast, many things that he couldn't understand before could now be grasped with a little thought, he could even infer more information from them. If he tried to remember certain things with dedication, just watching one or two more times he could memorize everything without missing a word into his mind.

The changes brought by practicing the Basic Meditation Technique made him very excited.

"Little Li, come help me take a look at the computer, lately a lot of small ads keep popping up,"

A slightly aged voice gently rang in his ear, snapping Li Qing back to reality, and he looked up.

Zhang Li, the chairman of this biotechnology company, could be described as an old scholar, who has delved deeply into the biological field. Originally a professor at Shanghai University, he later created his own company due to insufficient funding from above, leveraging a dozen or so biological patent technologies to expand the company more and more.

Though it's not listed, Li Qing, who manages the internal systems of the company, knows that just the monthly cash flow and reserves alone have the company's capital exceeding three hundred million, peaking at over a billion at its height.

Quite wealthy while spending money like water.

Many of the materials required for scientific research projects are astonishingly expensive, and some rare materials can cost tens of millions just for a pound or two.

"Alright, professor, I'll come right away."

Zhang Li does not like others to call him chairman; he has a particular fondness for the title professor.

Probably the final perseverance of an old scholar venturing into entrepreneurship.

Following Zhang Li, who leisurely walked with his hands behind his back into the chairman's office, ignoring the antique-style desk and chair decor, Li Qing went straight to the computer and efficiently began clearing out some junk programs.

This old scholar didn't have much of a hobby, just liked to look at some slightly improper little information...

Such as Ultraman; this old scholar liked it a lot, he even had a Gaia Transformation Device sitting in his drawer...

It's quite human nature, Li Qing understood well; he especially liked Ultraman when he was a child until he realized he couldn't transform into light no matter what, resigning to disperse those unrealistic dreams.

His dream had never definitely been to save money to buy a house and a car back then.

Life had already dulled his edges. Now, upon receiving this Magic Academy admission letter, and meditating upon the light ball in his mind, his dormant fervor began to gradually awaken.

"Little Li, I noticed you're becoming a bit indulgent lately, gotta pay attention to your body. Once you pass thirty, you should exercise."

Zhang Li stood by Li Qing's side, saying quietly.

Li Qing snapped back, a bit embarrassed, "I understand, Professor Zhang, I'll pay attention in the future."

"Mm, and, though I know everyone in the company should help each other, and you're the one who purchased this computer, it can't become your computer, understand!"

"Ah?" Li Qing was taken aback for a moment, not quite comprehending.

Seeing this, Zhang Li pointed to the computer icon on the screen below the words 'My Computer.'

Zhang Li was somewhat displeased, "Even though computers update and replace frequently, often needing resource allocation, I am still the current user."

Li Qing immediately understood, silently changing 'My Computer' to 'Professor Zhang's Computer.'

"Professor Zhang, is this okay?"

Zhang Li adjusted his reading glasses, eyebrows relaxing quickly, satisfied, "Now that's right."

Li Qing: "..." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Even though Zhang Li is indeed a giant in the field of biotechnology, this old scholar came from the abacus era, possesses high attainment in biology, but in terms of computer knowledge, he could only be considered an outsider.

It's not that he didn't understand the convenience of computers; a seven-billion-worth supercomputing center is installed on the second basement of this building, where Li Qing, due to job responsibilities, was fortunate to be involved in the setup.

All of this was led by Zhang Li alone.

It's just that he doesn't quite know how to use it, after all, research has never been a solo task, but he did clearly know how much convenience computers bring to research.

The supercomputing center's monthly electricity bill alone exceeds three million, but the profits are indeed impressive; many university research projects or other corporate research borrow it, accumulating profits each month.

Scary!

After leaving the chairman's office, Li Qing enthusiastically returned to his office to retrieve the Magic Academy admission letter's magic scroll and continued pondering over the knowledge content within the Magic Origin.

Magic is mainly divided into two major schools, Western Magic and Eastern Magic. Both originating from different paths, thus creating distinct usage methods, but ultimately, the objective achieved is the same.

To become a God or an Immortal.

But these were too distant for Li Qing, even too mythological and legendary for this era.

The book then took a turn, explaining that the main execution methods for magic involve spells, gestures, internal circulation, and magic arrays. However, the essence still lies in the consciousness interacting with the body.

What is magic, broadly speaking, any phenomena that violate normal causal relationships can be termed magic. It's not just the traditional notions found in novels such as Fireball Technique or Ice Arrow Technique.

Magic encompasses these but is not specifically categorized according to attributes, being uniformly called Shaping Magic instead.

Through gestures, spells, and cooperation with the magic power within, it stimulates the energy particles in the air to arrange in a systematic fashion, thus materializing actual attacks.

This is all scientifically grounded, backed by research from the Magic Research Institute in the Gray Magic Academy.

Yet many times, mages are reluctant to conduct such complex series operations, preferring a more chaotic causality, a kind of mind-boggling, incomprehensible principle.

For example, the Transformation Technique.

Turning a cat into a person, or transforming a person into any type of animal.

The transformation factors in it are utterly inexplicable, practically impossible to accomplish.

...

...

Two days passed in a flash, and concerning magic — this miraculous, godlike entity, Li Qing was thoroughly immersed in this magical knowledge.
