Chapter 89.1
Editor: Jodi
Afterward, Bai Jing and Gu Yuanzhao went to inspect the slums on several other planets. Everything was progressing in an orderly fashion.
The soldiers reinforced the more heavily radiated ‘restricted zones’, setting up protective nets, automated scanning devices, and monitoring equipment, which were installed across the entire area.
Both the Imperial Royal Family and the Marshal took this matter extremely seriously, so naturally, no one dared to slack off. The restricted zones and slums were sealed as tightly as iron barrels.
Even with the status of Gu Yuanzhao and Bai Jing, getting those people out of there wasn’t easy—it took a lot of effort.
With these precautions in place, organizations like the Yuan family would never have a chance to resurface.
Bai Jing took the fourteen individuals, including An Ge, who had been rescued from the Yuan family out of the slums.
When other aristocratic families heard about this, they could only lament their bad luck. They didn’t dare to make any comments and could only vent their frustrations on their subordinates who had mishandled things.
As for the Shen family, how could they dare to demand breach-of-contract compensation from Bai Jing?
A mere 10 million starcoins was nothing. What’s more if this could be an opportunity for them to build a connection with someone like Bai Jing, wouldn’t it be worth it?
However how could Bai Jing give them this chance? Soon enough, the Shen family’s official account received the 10 million starcoins in full.
And left with no choice, the Shen family could only give up on An Ge, a pawn they had seen as full of potential, regretting it deeply in their hearts while they did so.
They wouldn’t have fixated on discovering the secret behind enhancing mental power if they had known all this earlier. They would’ve nurtured An Ge properly.
After all, An Ge’s mental power was nearing 3S level. What if he turned out to be the next Bai Jing?
However it was too late now. The opportunity was gone for good.
An Ge, as Bai Jing’s friend, moved into Bai Jing’s residence.
It was a highly secure, egg-shaped white building. An Ge was placed on the seventh floor, just one floor below Bai Jing and Gu Yuanzhao.
While the others were relocated to another villa owned by Gu Yuanzhao.
When they stepped into the lavishly decorated hall, saw the gleaming floors and state-of-the-art facilities, and experienced the high-quality service of intelligent robots, they all felt as though they had stepped into paradise.
The soft lights turned on automatically, relaxing music eased their nerves, and the robots at the door provided slippers, cleaned their dirty coats, and took them away for washing.
There were so many rooms that they could choose from freely, and the bathrooms already had hot water running, the warm mist carrying a faint fragrance, with an option for soothing massage services.
Everything here left them completely shocked.
“This… this is really for us?”
“It seems like… it should be?”
“…..”
The group whispered to one another, their voices barely audible.
They were from the lowest rungs of the slums. When had they ever been treated with such respect?
This kind of luxurious villa would’ve been more than enough to host nobles, yet Young Master Gu and God Yun had arranged it for them to live in—
Just then, the robot butler, B01, detected their doubts and responded in a cheerful, mechanical voice, “Honored guests, everything here is for you to enjoy. Robot B01 is always at your service~”
“So cute!”
A girl named Huang Yue, who had been visibly tense, relaxed immediately when she saw the round, adorable robot. She couldn’t resist reaching out to pat its head.
B01 allowed her touch it obediently, its electronic eyes squinting into a satisfied line.
Hearing this reassurance, the group finally let their guards down a little. Then carefully, they stepped into the bathrooms. It wasn’t long before sounds of relief and contentment echoed through the air.
If possible, they wished they could stay here forever.
The next day, Qiao A delivered the latest model of light brains to them and brought along two medical staff for health checkups as well.
Physically, they weren’t in terrible condition, as most of their problems stemmed from malnutrition, which was something that could be quickly resolved with the advanced medical technology of the interstellar era.
When the light brains were powered on, a beam of white light shot out, scanning each of them from head to toe like an X-ray. Then moments later, a semi-transparent interface appeared in midair.
“Name: Wang Qin, Age: 23, Genetic Rank: E, Physical Rank: C, Mental Power: S….”
“Simply too powerful! It just takes one scan to figure out all your stats!”
“So this is a light brain? Amazing—”
“Qi Yu, Age: 17, Genetic Rank: E, Physical Rank: B, Mental Power: S, hmph.”
A boy named Qi Yu sneered and shut off his light brain abruptly. No wonder the nobles looked down on people from the slums. It turns out this was the reason why.
“Huang Yue, Age: 18, Genetic Rank: F, Physical Rank: D, Mental Power: 2S…”
……
One by one, everyone read their stats aloud.
And as expected, their genetic ranks were all abysmally low. The only thing they had going for them was their mental power.
