Swallowing the Stars: The cheat system only comes when I'm almost a god?

"Although the benefits in our logistics department can't compare to those in the initial universe and the company headquarters, they are still quite good compared to other departments. You are now a junior military commander, and according to company rules, you will receive a 3,000-year vacation for every 100,000 years of work."

Lin Yuan nodded. After leaving Lin Xuan's residence, he received a message from the company. The man introducing himself to him was Diman, a person in charge of the logistics department.

The other party continued, "Our logistics department consists of two main modules: internal and external. The internal module is mainly responsible for the distribution of supplies to each branch. Those positions are basically filled by people with connections and influence, so you don't need to worry about them. You're going to the branch that's responsible for external affairs."

"The external division is divided into two parts."

The first department is the Information Processing Department, which is mainly responsible for verifying orders placed by others through the virtual universe and dispatching goods.

Secondly, there is the warehouse department, where the main warehouse is located. Countless precious treasures from the universe are gathered here, and high-level goods are also shipped from here to other places.

Items with low unit value are naturally not all stored at headquarters, so distribution warehouses are built throughout the human territory.

"You told Lord Purple Lightning that you wanted to be closer to home, so he assigned you to a warehouse closest to the Glorious Branch, where you handle low-level orders from the three nearby cosmic kingdoms."

"Understood." Lin Yuan nodded to indicate that he understood, then asked, "When will I officially take office?"

"Three thousand years later!" Diman explained, "You have just broken through to the level of an immortal god. According to departmental regulations, you will have a three-thousand-year vacation. You can go back to your hometown to arrange your affairs and upgrade the secret techniques and life support you have learned. Let's improve our combat power first."

"The specific management of the cargo hold is handled by the subordinate world lords or intelligent life forms. The biggest role of the immortal gods in distributing the cargo holds is to act as security guards, preventing interstellar pirates or other dangerous elements from breaking in and looting. Therefore, improving combat power is very important."

After listening to Diman's explanation, Lin Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

After breaking through to immortality, those geniuses all went to the outer battlefields to wreak havoc and show their brilliance.

When it was my turn? Although I chose the position myself, the style of both the warehouse manager and the security guard was very different from theirs.

Diman ignored his strange mood and continued, "The logistics department has some of the best vacation days in the entire Virtual Universe Company, and the benefits are not bad either."

With your strength as a junior military commander, you can earn at least 5,000 points for every 100,000 years you work for the company.

If other events occur during work, such as space pirate raids or alien invasions, defeating them will also yield even greater rewards.

"Five thousand points?" Lin Yuan was slightly taken aback.

He didn't think the reward was too low, but rather too high.

Lin Xuan's ancestor was an immortal god in the core layer of the Virtual Universe Company, so he knew long ago that one point was equivalent to one Hunyuan unit.

The other party has now reached the level of a high-ranking military leader, but according to Lin Yuan's understanding, she could only get about two thousand points in rewards after working in the Brilliant Branch for a million years. The benefits of the Logistics Department are more than twenty times that of them.

Moreover, for immortal beings with eternal lifespans, time is the least valuable thing.

A wild immortal god in the universe who did not come from a major power, without great opportunities, would have a total net worth of at most tens of thousands of Chaos Units. But now, I only need to work for about a million years to have assets that surpass theirs!

"This is nothing." Diman raised an eyebrow at Lin Yuan. "Unlike the Transportation Department, which only receives a fixed salary, the Immortal Gods in the Logistics Department who manage the warehouses have a lot of power. If many people want the same thing, then we decide who gets their goods first..."

"Ah!" Although they were in a virtual universe and Diman couldn't say it outright, Lin Yuan understood what he meant. Wasn't it just demanding bribes and kickbacks? It was an old trick!

"Lin Yuan".

While he was pondering, Diman had already led him to a stream and pointed to the palaces scattered around, saying, "You've already spent some time on Thunder Island and should have a general understanding of the layout here from others, so I won't go into further detail."

"Many immortal gods who manage the sub-warehouses have their residences nearby, including your future colleagues Howard and Yan Lie. You can also build a residence within a one-kilometer radius here, so you can live closer to them and take care of each other."

"Thank you, Lord Diman." Lin Yuan bowed respectfully. The other party was no ordinary person of his level; a Marquis-level expert personally accompanied and introduced him, which was only because of Lord Zidian Wang's influence.

"Hmm." Diman nodded. "You should have already cleared the first ten levels of the Sky Bridge, and you should have 100,000 points by now. Hurry up and upgrade your weapons, spaceship, and auxiliary life support. You can go to the compartment yourself in three thousand years."

"Yes, sir! I will complete it as soon as possible."

Diman patted Lin Yuan on the shoulder: "Alright, I still have some things to take care of, so I can't stay here to help you build your residence. If you encounter any problems at work in the future, you can come to the middle area to find me. I'll be going now."

Lin Yuan bowed respectfully again: "Respectfully seeing you off, sir!"

……

After Diman left, he chose a vacant lot nearby where there were no other buildings within a radius of ten miles, and then began to design his residence according to his own wishes.

With a thought, a large, square courtyard appeared before Lin Yuan.

All the houses are built with a special type of blue brick, and the roofs are covered with colorful glazed tiles. Different stone beasts sit on the four corners of the eaves, and the buildings are decorated with carved beams and painted rafters. The interior of the courtyard is rather rustic, with nothing but a small garden and a martial arts training ground.

Most notably, the houses and other buildings are not traditional symmetrical castles or palaces; from the outside of the courtyard, they appear as if the entire house has been forcibly split in two.

The house is half-built, which is a typical Qin-style architectural style, the style of the hometown where Lin Yuan lived for more than ten years in his previous life!

He sighed inwardly, thinking that it would probably be a long time before he saw a similar building again. The universe was less than a trillion epochs old, the Yan God Clan had not yet separated from the human race, and it was still a long time before Earth was transformed by the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

As Lin Yuan entered the main hall of the manor and sat on the octagonal chair he hadn't felt in a long time, he was about to open the door to see what he could get from the company's treasury with his wealth when he received a new email.

This was sent by the logistics department of Virtual Universe Company. It details his upcoming job duties and benefits, and is much more detailed than Diman's.

After reviewing the email and keeping all the precautions in mind, Lin Yuan casually opened the Virtual Universe Company's internal treasure vault.

drop!

Once identity verification was successful, all the treasure information was displayed, and eight major categories immediately appeared on the virtual screen in front of him.

These are: "Mystic Arts", "Weapons", "Materials", "Special Life Forms", "Rare Treasures", "Nutrient Solutions", "Information Technology", and "Other Special Categories".

Most of the content can be determined from the name, except for information technology and other categories where judging solely from the literal meaning might lead to misconceptions.

The former is a collection of technological and developmental information accumulated by humankind over countless years. Buyers may purchase advanced technologies from other planets, like Luo Feng, to improve the technological level of their own planet, or they may adjust their own strategies based on the development experience of others.

The other special category is the broadest. For example, there is something called greenwood fruit, which can be used as a raw material for a certain nutrient solution and can also be taken as a rare treasure. Therefore, it is directly classified into the other special category.

"I already have the F-class Chiling spaceship, so there's no need to change it." Lin Yuan pondered to himself as he updated the database of the intelligent life form Huang Jin's memory treasure trove.

"There are only a few ways to improve combat power: upgrade to higher-level weapons and armor, learn more profound combat techniques, cultivate auxiliary life forms to achieve immortality, and most importantly, improve your understanding of the laws."

As for weapons, there are the Buddhist artifacts that Ye Fan has, but I use a gun. I can ask someone to make a vajra with other materials that is more suitable for me, which will also be much cheaper.

The logistics department is relatively safe. The current armor is sufficient for now. It would be more worthwhile to upgrade to a more powerful suit of armor later when our strength increases.

Having made up his mind, he directly clicked on the Secret Techniques category and purchased the first three forms of the Wildfire Hundred Slashes, a combat secret technique created by Yan Yue Wang, the grandmaster of the Yan Cang lineage.

Yan Yue Wang is extremely famous among the immortal gods of the Virtual Universe Company. It is said that she has only recently broken through to the King level, but her strength is terrifying. She once used the Flaming Spear to kill two alien King level experts in the outer battlefield. The first three moves of her spear technique are enough for Lin Yuan to use.

"Next is... a secret technique to assist in cultivating the fundamental laws of space."

Although he already has the Door-Door Fruit and the Pass-Pass Fruit, and his understanding of spatial laws can be rapidly improved after using his divine power clones to analyze them, he doesn't know how different the spatial rules of the other world are from his own, so he still wants to buy some cultivation secrets left by his predecessors.

After Lin Yuan began searching, numerous descriptions of secret techniques quickly appeared on the screen—

"The Principles of Chaos," priced at 1000 billion points, features the great Lord of Chaos's detailed explanation of the two supreme laws of time and space. After the basic content, there is also an explanation of the mysteries of the fusion of the laws of time and space. Suitable for cosmic venerables or cosmic overlords...

……

"Frozen Time and Space," priced at 1000 billion points, features the great Lord of Ice...

……

"Blazing Sun Breaks the Sky" is priced at 100 billion points. It is a secret technique created by the great overlord of Yancang. It details the various true meanings he had when creating the Yancang Chaos Stele and is of great help in comprehending the Yancang Chaos Stele.

……

After a brainstorming session, Lin Yuan once again used over 30,000 points to acquire the first three volumes of the Blazing Sun Breaking the Sky. As long as he could fully comprehend the contents by combining them with the Chaos Stele, he would be close to recognizing the fundamental laws of space and be able to cross the fourteenth level of the Sky Bridge to find Lord Candri and fulfill his promise.

In addition, he spent 1000 points to buy the complete set of "Introduction to Space".

The Nine Universes Chaos Stele, which begins with the laws of space, is extremely difficult to comprehend. The first three diagrams alone require the ability to grasp the 108 essential aspects of the fundamental laws of space. This is nothing to a super genius like Luo Feng, who is rare to find even in countless eras, but it is very difficult for Lin Yuan.

"The Initial Explanation of Space" is prepared for ordinary geniuses like him. It was created by a brilliant genius in the history of humankind when he was comprehending the essence of the fundamental laws of space. It is said that mastering all 108 secret techniques will allow one to grasp the essence of the laws of space!

"Let me see the advancement plan for life support." Lin Yuan browsed for a while, then stroked his chin: "Found it, Flame Star Grass. Its advancement to Immortal God requires a large amount of fire attribute energy. It can be paired with 1,000 tons of Crimson Storm No. 1 cultivation solution..."
