After the proposal, the Valkyrie came to the door

Ahem, hold it in, this is our first meeting with Raven, it would be too impolite to laugh. Besides, this timeline hasn't broken down, so even if Raven buys a villa island, it won't sink.

Anliang tensed the muscles in his cheeks, trying his best to maintain a calm expression.

"Miss Ciora, thank you for spending time with Gretchen."

"No need to be so polite, just call me Ciora. As for taking care of Gretchen... it's what I should do. She's very well-behaved, and I also really like children."

Siola waved her hand and said with a smile, "Since you're here, there's nothing more for me to do. I'll go check the security."

"Hey, are you leaving already?"

Alicia, who was standing nearby, also noticed Raven's presence. Her beautiful pink and blue eyes lit up. "It's rare to meet such a gentle, kind, beautiful, and lovely girl. How about we have a tea party together and become good friends?"

"This……"

Hiola was somewhat at a loss, clearly unable to handle Alicia, who had social anxiety.

An Liang spoke up at just the right moment to defuse the situation: "They're busy with work, so don't bother them. Besides, this isn't a suitable time for a tea party."

"Hmm, that makes sense..."

Alicia, after being reprimanded, gave Ciora an apologetic smile, "Sorry to have disturbed your work."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll be going now."

Siola smiled and shook her head, then lowered her eyes, intending to make a quick getaway.

As a cautious mercenary, she and the sincere and enthusiastic girl in front of her were from completely different worlds. If she were to stay with her, she would probably feel as uncomfortable as a shut-in meeting a popular girl.

Sigh, sometimes she envied people who seemed to radiate sunshine all the time, because children would probably prefer Miss Alicia's personality...

He was once the most famous mercenary in North America. Just as he stepped out of the office, he heard footsteps chasing after him.

"Sister Ciola, here's the painting for you. Thank you for spending the whole afternoon painting with me."

Greta stood on tiptoe and carefully handed the drawing paper in her hand to the conflicted mercenary.

Hiola looked down at the drawing paper. At the top was a gray raven perched on a branch, busy building its nest while watching the little birds playing around it with its rose-red eyes. The drawing had a warm and healing fairytale feel to it.

Looking at the raven in the painting, whose temperament somewhat resembled her own, Ciola understood for the first time why excellent paintings could move people's hearts, and her negative emotions were replaced by a sense of warmth.

"Gresh, I will cherish this painting."

"Yes, I'm glad you like it, Sister Hiola."

Gretchen said in an innocent voice, waved goodbye politely, and then ran back to Anliang, who was leaning against the office door.

"Let's go, Brother Anliang will play with you some more, but there probably won't be enough time left for drawing..."

An Liang smiled and ruffled the girl's sky-blue hair, then glanced at Xiora's retreating figure.

He had assumed that Raven would choose to open a bar or an orphanage in a world without the collapse, but he never expected that she would become the security consultant for Divine City Medicine and work in World Serpent.

Is this the convergence of world lines? Or, as Kevin once said, is a person's character their destiny?

An Liang pondered for a moment, smiled, and came up with a third guess.

He thought it was also possible that World Serpent was offering too much money...

After all, the leader has changed to Mebius, and Shencheng Pharmaceuticals' global ranking is even higher than in the cycle of reincarnation. The employee benefits are probably much better than when Kevin was the Lord. If there is an opportunity to work in World Serpent, I will definitely go!

PS: When writing about Shencheng Pharmaceuticals, I couldn't help but want to tease Miss Raven a bit, cough cough, after all, she is a Valkyrie who has boarded the ship. However, the protagonist only knows her and there is no romantic relationship between them.

Chapters 8 and 9: Möbius's Little Studies

I encountered Raven at a branch of Shencheng Pharmaceuticals...

For Anliang, this was an unexpected yet reasonable little incident.

However, Raven's relationship with him in the cycle of reincarnation was not particularly close, so after seeing the old acquaintance, Anliang pondered for a moment why the island could fly, reminisced for a few seconds, and then turned his attention back to Möbius's office.

This office is not large, about twenty square meters.

It wasn't decorated in a luxurious or complicated way, but it wasn't exactly simple either; in fact, it could be described as cluttered.

On the desk, files were haphazardly piled on both sides of the computer. On the sofa and coffee table for entertaining guests, there were leftover instant noodle containers. Scattered draft papers were hidden in various corners, along with several portable blackboards covered with equations and models.

"Was Mebius discussing academic matters with someone in his office earlier and then didn't have time to tidy up?"

Looking at the scene, which resembled a boys' dormitory, Anliang couldn't help but speculate.

Greta nodded, speaking with a calm expression that suggested she was used to it.

"Grandma Mebius gets too busy to take care of herself, and Sister Klein isn't here. Nobody understands whether these things are important or not, so nobody dares to tidy them up."

"I see, it seems Klein is really important to Möbius!"

Alicia sighed, "But if everything is left to Klein, it's no wonder she's so busy working overtime every day."

"Working overtime every day... never mind, let's not talk about this."

Anliang wanted to say something, but when he thought about how he also had to work overtime every few days after becoming Da Yaya's subordinate, he felt a sense of empathy and exhaustion.

Shivering with cold, when will working people be able to escape the fate of being exploited?!

Even if Mebius and Big Duck aren't the kind of heartless bosses who don't pay overtime, most workers would definitely prefer a job where they can clock in and out on time if given a choice.

However, with another month of hard work, the studio's first game will be almost finished, and since single-player games don't require ongoing operation and maintenance, he should be able to have a vacation.

When the holidays come, will he take Alicia on a trip to the Far East? Or will he go find Fu Hua and Xiao Shi and watch them wander around Shenzhou, exchanging martial arts skills with friends?

Thinking of this, Anliang felt much better, and a smile appeared on his lips.

He then clapped his hands and made the suggestion to Gretchen and Alicia.

"Well, although I don't know which things are important, it's still okay to put these documents aside. After all, we need to make room to sit down. I'm sure Mebius won't mind."

"That's true. At least we should clean up the instant noodle container on the coffee table. Oh dear, Mebius and Kevin really do have something in common in this regard."

Alicia rolled up her sleeves and tidied up while sighing.

"Kevin hasn't been eating instant noodles much lately, I heard it's because Mei won't let him."

An Liang shrugged and recounted what he had learned from his recent conversation with Kevin.

Because he was already familiar with Kevin during the reincarnation, and because they were the only two people in the Golden Garden who had girlfriends, Anliang and Kevin had a good relationship. They would chat and act as each other's love advisors.

"I can't believe such a thing happened! Tell Miss Fairy all about it in detail!"

Alicia's pinkish-blue eyes sparkled with curiosity about the current state of Kevin and May's relationship.

Even Gretchen became interested, listening intently as if she were about to gather information.

Amused by the antics of the two, An Liang smiled and, while tidying up his office, began to tell some of the little love stories he knew about Kevin and Mei.

Once everything was mostly packed up, the story was also finished.

"Did something this interesting really happen between Kevin and May? They're truly a perfect couple who went from a sweet, innocent campus romance to being together..."

After hearing the story, Alicia looked satisfied, her pretty face glowing with a faint red light. She took out her phone and started typing, probably to share it with Eden or Aponia.

Greta seemed to have been inspired as well, and ran to the desk, sat in Möbius's seat, and began to wield her paintbrush.

Well, Gretchen is too young and doesn't understand love and romance, which has led to criticism of the plot of her shoujo manga. Hopefully, Kevin and May's love story can help little girls improve in this area... uh, I don't think this is going astray, right?

An Liang scratched his cheek and, seeing that the two ladies were engrossed in their own worlds, began to wander aimlessly around the office.

After walking around, he paused and stopped in front of the several mobile blackboards covered with various formulas and theories.

"Huh, what's being researched on here...?"

Anliang had only glanced at it casually and didn't think he could understand it.

After all, this was written by the great scientist Möbius, involving a lot of profound knowledge, and it is not a paper with a rigorous proof process, but only some deductions and conjectures.

In this situation, even a PhD graduate from a prestigious university probably wouldn't be able to understand what's written above, let alone Anliang, an art student who failed the entrance exam.

However, if Möbius's research involves areas that Anryo excels in, then the situation is different...

An Liang's eyes swept across the lines of words on the blackboard, reading at an extremely fast pace. Sometimes, he even showed a knowing expression, seemingly unaware of the fear of being dominated by knowledge.

Can you tell what I've written here?

After Anliang finished reading all the blackboards, a soft female voice sounded in his ear.

"The specific details are quite complex, but to put it simply, what's being discussed on the blackboard is how to use energy to evolve the human body."

An Liang answered subconsciously, then turned his head and saw Mebius looking surprised.

The green-haired woman in the white coat, who had arrived at some unknown time, seemed to be meeting An Liang for the first time, and narrowed her snake-like eyes to look him up and down.

“Interesting. Could you elaborate?”

"Then I'll make a fool of myself. If I understand correctly, what's written above is based on the theory of the influence of energy on organisms, which further deduces the process of using energy to drive human evolution. Dr. Mebius, the energy you've chosen here is electric current."

An Liang crossed his arms, his tone calm yet conveying the confidence that he already knew the answer.

"The human body can be viewed as a flesh-and-blood machine driven by bioelectricity. As early as the last century, doctors discovered that appropriate electrical stimulation could increase the effectiveness of muscle training and make muscles more explosive. Now, many medical methods have been developed that use electrical current to treat diseases and accelerate injury recovery."

"It is precisely because electric current has so many amazing effects on the human body that Dr. Mebius, you used this idea to try to calculate on the blackboard how to use electric current and even magnetic fields to allow the human body to break through its original biological limits and achieve individual evolution."

P.S.: Just kidding, but Möbius wasn't messing around with magnetic fields; he was seriously researching evolution. By the way, I got off work late today, so I don't know when I'll finish the second update. If it's too late, I'll make it up tomorrow morning.

Chapter 90 Raiden Mei's Electric Massage

"Interesting, very interesting."

"There aren't many people at Shencheng Pharmaceutical who can understand what's written on the blackboard, yet you can completely comprehend my thought process... Do illustrators need such a high level of academic expertise these days?"

Mebius stared at An Liang with shining eyes, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.

"Come on, let's continue our conversation about biology."

With his arms crossed, Möbius asked with interest, "Since you can understand the theories and conjectures on the blackboard, do you think this research has a chance of success?"

"Well, I don't think it's possible..."

Anliang didn't even have time to think before answering.

He doesn't know much about academic theories, but as a powerful being who has cultivated himself to transcend the Cocoon of the End, he has rich practical experience in using energy to drive human evolution.

"Although electromagnetic force is a fundamental force of the universe, and even the human body contains electric current, the bioelectricity is too weak. This means that the human body cannot tolerate electromagnetic force well, and stimulation with weak electric current does not have a significant effect."

If An Liang were to explain it using the concept of Xianxia novels, it would be that humans have such poor aptitude for lightning-type spiritual roots that they would have no hope of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage even after a lifetime of cultivation.

Anliang had already verified this a long time ago.

Back when he hadn't reincarnated many times, he was frustrated by his weak strength, so he thought of many training methods from novels and anime. Then he found Raiden Mei and asked this girl who wielded the power of the Third Herrscher to strike him with lightning.

An Liang pondered that even if he couldn't cultivate the magnetic field rotation, he could still achieve lightning tempering.

But after all that work, aside from getting a new afro and a slightly improved tolerance to electric shocks, Anliang gained nothing else.

Raiden Mei, however, discovered a technique called "electric massage" on him, which worked very well whether for relieving fatigue or for certain erotic activities...

Well, after all, a man's penis is also muscle, and appropriate electrical stimulation can effectively increase its erection, hardness, and duration.

Anliang subconsciously recalled the tingling sensation he experienced when dating Raiden Mei, his mind fluttering for a moment before he used his strong willpower to pull his thoughts back.

We're having an academic discussion, let's be serious!

An Liang coughed lightly in his mind, maintained a serious expression, and continued chatting with Mebius.

"I believe it is feasible to use energy to drive human evolution, but not electric current, but some kind of higher energy that humans have not yet detected."

The so-called higher level of energy is actually imaginary internal energy and quantum power.

The energy originating from the imaginary tree and the quantum sea, two magnificent entities, is undoubtedly the most advanced form of energy. If one could master these two energies, let alone break through the limits of human evolution, one could even become a god capable of destroying countless galaxies in an instant.

However, the Sea of ​​Quanta is quite selective in terms of who can do it.

For characters like Seele, who have high quantum adaptability, the Sea of ​​Quanta treats them like its own daughter, giving them as much power as they want.

As for someone like Anliang, who has gone far on the imaginary side, it's already a favor that he wasn't kicked by a passing quantum shadow when he ventured into the Sea of ​​Quanta.

Then again...

An Liang chose to pursue the imaginary side rather than the quantum side, not only because he was not very adaptable, but also because if there were a method for cultivating on the imaginary side, the progress would be extremely fast.

Most of the world was born on the tree of imaginary numbers, and individuals and civilizations alike have a natural advantage in coming into contact with imaginary numbers.
