Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2461 Reaching New Heights
"Easy to do."

The dean, being a seasoned veteran, knew that one should first express gratitude for the hard work upon meeting.

Faced with that statement that was clearly directed at him, Fu Qian casually replied with a polite remark, and the next moment he held it up in front of him.

"Want to try Lisa's cooking?"

There was no credit for the embezzling guests. While inviting the cast to sit down, he emphasized that the tea was brewed by Professor Lisa.

"That's really rare, you should definitely try it."

With a hearty laugh, the cast seemed to be in a much better mood than the weather, and they actually came in and took their seats.

what--

It was only then that Lisa snapped out of her daze and uttered the second half of her exclamation.

Is it really true, as someone said, that we should just wait here?
As the last contestant to visit the cast, she was quite surprised by his complexion. Staring at his strikingly handsome face, she didn't know how to greet him.

The key cast members simply glanced back silently without saying a word, seemingly expecting something in return.

cough cough...

The somewhat tense situation lasted for about two seconds before Fu Qian finally broke the silence with a dry cough, then pushed his cup forward and offered a few words of guidance.

...To pour tea, right?

As someone who works with intellectual skills, Lisa finally realized what was going on and understood the meaning behind the cast's gaze.

One invited the other to have tea, and the other gladly accepted.

After they sat down, neither of the two men was prepared to do anything; they were both waiting for her to serve them.

call--

The turbulent emotions subsided somewhat, and Professor Lisa slowly exhaled to calm her rebellious spirit.

"Why is it taking so long? Professor Fu and I have been waiting here for quite a while."

However, when it came time to actually pour the tea, I couldn't help but complain about how slow the staff was.

……

"It does take a while."

In response to Lisa's statement, Cast picked up his glass and glanced out the window.

"It was more troublesome than I expected, but it's much better now."

It seemed perfectly conceivable how agonizing Professor Lisa's wait must have been; after gazing at the sky, Cast's tone even carried an apology.

"That's good……"

With the dean's attitude so upright, Lisa couldn't bring herself to argue.

Although she muttered something under her breath, she subconsciously glanced in Fu Qian's direction.

Look how scared the child is.

Fu Qian was very clear about the meaning of that glance.

The previous discussion about the cast, coupled with half a day of random thoughts, has made Professor Lisa a little paranoid.

Even when the person in question stood before her, personally admitting that they had fully recovered and were in good health, she still doubted whether this was the actor's true thought.

Is the illness so severe that it's causing them to try to deceive themselves?

That's good, you've already made some progress.

Fu Qian did not intend to mock such a reaction.

Professor Lisa may be a little sensitive on certain topics, but overall she has one advantage: a good attitude.

Being constantly mocked by oneself and the cast, someone with a strong sense of self-respect might have already given up and stopped thinking.

However, whenever it comes to a crucial moment, he can still bravely use his brain, and that courage alone is remarkable.

As for Lisa's concerns, Fu Qian said it should be alright. At least from this perspective, the dean's statement was quite honest—it was more than just much better; the health bar on the radar had actually grown a bit.

Perhaps he hasn't reached the level of becoming a divine messenger yet, but he can definitely be rated as a peak third-tier being, which is already similar to what Grandpa Logan felt back then.

Dean Cast seems to have turned misfortune into a blessing, and is poised for further advancement.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that we are actually in a state of etched wisdom, and what we see is merely a beautiful possibility.

After all, it has already happened once.

"The dean's condition is indeed ideal."

Even with such risks, it didn't stop me from enjoying the good situation right now.

Faced with Professor Lisa's subtly questioning gaze, he readily gave an answer, indicating that there was no need to worry.

“It even looks better than before.”

……

what?
Professor Fu's argument was somewhat unexpected. Lisa, who knew his style well, knew that he wouldn't make a judgment lightly, especially not on such a sensitive matter.

At that moment, the surprise mixed with joy was directly reflected on her face. Lisa opened her mouth and looked at the cast, her excitement feeling that even reaching demigod status was nothing compared to this.

"The progress is not significant, but at least some hidden dangers have been eliminated."

The cast member smiled and nodded, pointing to himself with the humility of an elder.

"...Next time something like this happens, please let me know in advance."

Unfortunately, her kindness did not receive an equal response. Lisa, who was finally relieved after receiving double confirmation, regained her energy in just a few seconds.

Her first reaction was to criticize this irrational behavior, saying that she was terrified.

"So, my previous situation—"

Before Cast could even offer a few words of self-justification, she had already remembered something else.

"Indeed, it's also because of my influence..."

His expression was slightly awkward, but the cast member still dared to take responsibility and continued to admit the problem.

Ok……

Lisa didn't say anything, but the look in her eyes at that moment made Fu Qian's interpretation very simple—you owe me a lot of money.

That murderous look remained in his eyes for a very long time... and he even sat there without moving.

……

In order to evade their debts, did they simply petrify the victim?
As expected of the leader of Apocalypse, truly decisive and ruthless.

Professor Lisa's situation is quite understandable; in fact, Fu Qian mentioned that it had already happened once in this very laboratory—Cas used his superior-subordinate pressure to put her to sleep.

As for the purpose, last time it was to secretly tell myself that the problem actually lay with Professor Lisa, but this time—

"The danger level of the situation was not beyond my expectations, but I did not expect it to spread to the surrounding area and affect Lisa."

His smile faded slightly, and the actor turned around, not only admitting it was his fault but also saying he had expected it.

"Although my ceremony was performed well back then, it still left some hidden dangers. It doesn't affect the action, but the road ahead has become dangerous."

With a sigh, the cast member reminisced about the past and explained the cause of the accident.

"One of my purposes for going out over the years has been to find solutions. This time I have found some good results, so I thought I would give it a try."

"However, during the process of trying it out, things started to get a little strange. It wasn't until you sent Lisa to find me that I realized it had some kind of hidden effect."

Professor Lisa hung up. After a moment of reminiscing, Cast had no choice but to pour himself a cup of tea and look at Fu Qian, who was listening quietly.

"What does Professor Fu think are the possible reasons?"
