Worldwide Awakening: My Soul Kinds Are Lost-Chapter 630: Virtue Career System, Rebellion of the Base_1

Wang Linchi's proposal was deliberated among the Xing Country High Level for three full days before it was smoothly passed. The primary concern was that granting such immense power to the entire populace could provoke international disputes and domestic public security issues. Therefore, the deliberation wasn't on whether to approve it, but on how to mitigate these potential problems.

How could this not be passed? If it could allow them to gain power and extend their lives, they would even dare to oppose the entire world for it.

Subsequently, various heated debates erupted, with even Transcendent powers stepping forward to voice their opposition. However, the Xing Country High Level remained extremely assertive and pushed the initiative through directly. Anyone who dared to obstruct was declared an enemy and suppressed with swift, forceful methods.

Thanks to their decisive stance and these thunderous measures, the implementation proceeded smoothly. The entire population was upgraded within just three months.

Then, the high-level leaders began their visits to various regions. These visits, of course, were merely a pretext for them to disperse and undergo their transformations.

The transformation of each high-ranking individual required a Life Force Field equivalent to the energy level of 100,000 people. However, these leaders cherished their lives, so they generally opted for Life Force Fields equivalent to 200,000 people.

Primarily, each large-scale Life Force Field required a month to recover after use. Furthermore, gathering such a large number of people demanded significant resources, so the transformations had to be conducted in batches.

Currently, the first batch of high-level individuals had completed their transformation and begun urging Wang Linchi to expedite the development of a new Life Potion and the Divine Evolution Elixir Type 3.

Wang Linchi, however, was taking his time, not at all anxious, because his own experiment had officially begun.

His current experiment, of course, wasn't about the protagonist luck contention; that was a separate project not yet ready to commence. Although he currently held sway over a critical aspect of the Xing Country High Level, he felt Xing Country's full potential hadn't been completely tapped yet. That would still require more time.

The experiment he was conducting, naturally, involved the golden origin substance.

"After being implanted into a human body, does it cause a corresponding deterioration?" Wang Linchi mused, examining the retrieved samples. The initially pure golden gas was now two-thirds tainted black.

"Is it sin, or Sin-force?" he wondered. "Let's tentatively call it Sin-force for now."

Since the golden origin substance was called Virtue, its opposite, this black origin substance, would naturally be termed Sin-force. Compared to Virtue, everything about Sin-force was its antithesis. For instance, Virtue could increase one's luck, while Sin-force would diminish it.

"Still," Wang Linchi suddenly pondered, "why does the world only accept Virtue and not Sin-force?"

Although these two origin substances were said to be opposites, they weren't fundamentally different; both were derivations of the origin. In Wang Linchi's eyes, it was rather like Coke and Sprite: one black, one white, but both beverages. Personal preference was another matter entirely.

"The two are inherently intertwined, two sides of the same coin. Or, to put it more directly, everyone possesses both Virtue and Sin-force. It's only when I transplant this golden origin substance into ordinary people that an increase in Sin-force is observed."

"Protagonists are different. They are inherently endowed with great luck, born extraordinary. That's why the world 'farms' them, so to speak, to produce Virtue."

Wang Linchi further extracted what he needed, ultimately formulating a new theory.

"This implies that the true system of this world isn't about so-called Martial Artists, Cultivators, or Metahumans, but rather the Virtue Career System. Even protagonists are merely an extension of it."

"So, what's truly cultivating isn't the Transcendent population, but the world itself!" Looking at the vast amounts of data, Wang Linchi finally understood why this world possessed a high World Energy Level, yet the strength of its Transcendents was only considered average.

Because the most powerful entity was the world itself. Its ability to trade protagonists with other worlds wasn't due to some capacity for troublemaking, but because the world itself was inherently powerful. High vitality, robust defenses, and the ability to repel invasions—these were the roots of its strength.

If any other world attempted to invade this one, they would be instantly 'sanitized' upon entry, like a virus. Besides, whether they could even get in was a separate issue entirely.

Wang Linchi could infiltrate and lay low in this world because he was on an equal footing with it, allowing him to stir up trouble. Other worlds lacked such flexibility; they could only attempt invasions through their native inhabitants. Such an act was tantamount to a direct declaration of war, unlike Wang Linchi's covert presence, which remained undetected.

"This glimpse is quite revealing," Wang Linchi thought, "this Virtue Career System seems quite suitable for me, especially as a resource." He eagerly wanted to obtain all the relevant data on this world's system.

However, even if Wang Linchi obtained it, he wouldn't just copy it wholesale. He was a world, true, and this was also a world, but they were two distinct worlds. Wang Linchi couldn't simply replicate it. Even if both worlds possessed human races, dissections would reveal differences, not to mention the fundamental dissimilarities between the two worlds themselves. Therefore, Wang Linchi's plan was to use it as nourishment, a stepping stone for his History of Time, to further enhance his own system.

At first glance, this Virtue Career System and Wang Linchi seemed quite compatible. Especially since he contained the Three Realms and possessed abilities like auditing and so on, perhaps he could truly create his own version of the Virtue Career System.

"It's just that the next phase of experiments will need to focus primarily on Sin-force." Wang Linchi considered. He had a steady supply of Virtue from the protagonists, so he wasn't lacking that. Sin-force, however, was different. It wasn't normally produced. To generate it, Virtue had to be infused into a human body, where it would be corrupted by the individual's own sins, eventually transforming into Sin-force.

Therefore, to acquire sufficient Sin-force for his experiments, Wang Linchi would need to procure it on a massive scale. The experiments he envisioned couldn't be accomplished with just a few subjects; they would require the cooperation of this entire world.

"The scope of this project is rather large, so I'll have to..." Wang Linchi was contemplating how to wreak havoc next when a loud explosion sounded from a distance.

"Is someone attacking the base?" The loud noise was clearly an explosion, yet Wang Linchi wasn't surprised.

"Let me see... Ah, it's the local Cultivation Aristocratic Family making their move." Wang Linchi instantly grasped the situation.

The Cultivation Aristocratic Family had hired foreign mercenaries to assassinate Wang Linchi. The reason was simple: a traitor had leaked information about him. The emergence of the Divine Evolution Elixir Type 2 had made the Transcendent powers unable to tolerate the Xing Country High Level possessing strength comparable to their own.

"But still, where did this traitor come from?" Wang Linchi's eyes narrowed.

Logically, no one should have been turned, as the Xing Country High Level had been quite generous regarding this matter. Another quick mental check revealed—ah, it was someone from his own base laboratory who had betrayed him. That explained it. After all, many coveted this power, but they had been consistently suppressed by the Xing Country High Level. They were only given money, not even the Life Potion, so naturally, some felt resentful.

"Sir Wang," a middle-aged man burst in with several personnel, his voice urgent, "Quick, come with us! The enemy has breached the base!"

The man's acting was quite commendable. If Wang Linchi hadn't already known the truth, he might genuinely have been fooled.

"No rush," Wang Linchi said slowly, appearing ready to sacrifice himself for his country. "At worst, we'll activate the base's self-destruct sequence."

This made the man falter, clearly not expecting Wang Linchi to say such a thing.

"You all have seen too little of the world," Wang Linchi remarked indifferently. "They're just a band of foreign mercenaries. It would be impressive if they could even breach the first gate."

"As expected of the man who developed the Divine Evolution Elixir and Life Potion. Such composure is truly surprising." An admiring voice sounded as a young man in ancient attire, holding a sword, walked in from behind with a cold expression. "I'll give you a chance," he said. "Join my Zhao Family of Dragon City, become our medicine slave, and I will spare your life."

"The benefits? That's it?" Wang Linchi was rather speechless. Recruiting someone by offering them slavery? Only an utter fool would accept such terms.

"Hmph. It seems you haven't grasped the current situation," the youth in ancient attire said, his eyes filled with disdain. "Truly, you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit." He immediately prepared to teach Wang Linchi a lesson.

BANG!

With the sound of a gunshot, the youth's head exploded.

"A mere Jin Dan cultivator dared to barge into a military base?" A burly man stepped out, the heavy sniper rifle in his hand still smoking.

How could someone of Wang Linchi's importance not have protection? His security detail was composed of the military's Special Forces.
