Chapter 99: Information and Gains
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Star City Academy, dormitory 301.
...Sitting at the desk, Feng Qi began to organize his gains in the future dream and recorded them in his notebook.
This way, he would be able to think clearly when formulating a new plan and not be at a loss.
Firstly, his increase in strength.
Strength Improvement 1: Prefix title “Strong” has advanced to “Very Strong”. My physique has more than doubled. The 20% increase in physical strength that comes with the title has increased to 30%. The recovery of the body and self-recovery has also improved.
Strength Improvement 2: Prefix title “Resilient” has advanced to LV 5. Muscle Toughness has received a 5% increase.
(Note: The increase in this ability might affect the increase in combat strength in the Blood Source state (After all, it’s muscle strengthening, and my Blood Source state is a muscular man.)
Strength Improvement 3: Obtained a brand new prefix title, “Blood Source”. After using it, it can greatly increase my strength for a short period of time and change my appearance. The prerequisite is that it consume blood and Qi. There are hidden dangers when using it in reality.
(Note: It’s better not to try this ability in reality. Otherwise, it might result in very serious consequences, but there’s a high chance that they will be within control.)
After the statistics on his strength were completed, Feng Qi began to organize his gains in terms of intelligence.
Intelligence Gain 1: Confirmed that Mu Qing was not controlled by evil forces in the future. The formation of Dawn and the massacre of the city are all her own ideas.
(Note: You can consider giving your email to Mu Qing next time to understand the truth behind these choices.)
Intelligence Gain 2: Suction Cup can basically be confirmed to be Mu Qing’s replica and clone. The rune crystal on her body is most likely the one from Mu Qing’s body. Moreover, Suction Cup is very likely created by the Scarlet Research Institute.
(Note: Based on this speculation, the position of the Scarlet Research Institute might be good instead of evil, but I can’t be 100% sure.)
Intelligence Gain 3: A mysterious secret door was discovered in the abandoned hospital (estate) where the Suction Cup was often found in the future dream. It was very likely that the Scarlet Research Institute had left behind an experimental base before the destruction of human civilization. There might be important information inside.
(Note: For the time being, I haven’t found a way to open it. You can find clues in reality or forcefully break it when you have absolute strength.)
Intelligence Gain 4: A scroll made of special materials was discovered in the Star City Shelter. The map on it is very likely related to the Path to Heaven.
Intelligence Gain 5: The Brain in the Vat plan proposed by Mo Fei in his email message can be tried if the conditions permit and the time is ripe.
(Note: My future self is so miserable QVQ.)
Intelligence Gain 6: For the time being, it can be confirmed that Lu Yue and the three Xia brothers are not spies.
(Note: A listening chip has been implanted into your body in the future. You can start looking for targets from this aspect.)
Intelligence Gain 7: Three brats have formed an influential organization, the Destiny Association. It’s time to strike hard.
Intelligence Gain 8: Strengthening the Suction Cup can extend the amount of time I can stay in the future dream.
Intelligence Gain 9: Star City Number One High School’s student, Xiao Xin, has an unconventional talent to withstand pressure and grow. You can look forward to her subsequent growth. There might be an unexpected surprise.
After sorting out the discoveries and gains in the future dream this time, Feng Qi closed the notebook.
Now that the balance in his bank card had been exhausted, he was no longer allowed to buy rune crystals to replenish the energy needed to go to the future dream.
However, when he thought about the Tiger Soul Concept Contest that was about to begin, he did not panic at all.
In his opinion, this championship was a piece of cake. It was only a matter of time before eight million dollars entered his pocket.
He looked at the time. It was five in the evening.
So he took out his phone and called Lin Ran.
A few seconds later, the call went through. Before he could speak, Lin Ran’s voice came first.
“Time to eat?”
“Is that all you can think about?”
Hearing this, Lin Ran’s puzzled voice sounded on the phone.
“What else could it be?”
“Nothing. Actually, I just wanted to inform you to get dinner.”

After hanging up, Feng Qi stood up and walked out of the dormitory building.
As for why why did not contact Mu Qing, it was because she did not need to be contacted at all.
No one had arrived at the school cafeteria earlier than her, and no one had left the school cafeteria later than her.
In terms of eating, Mu Qing had always been the earliest in and the latest out. She was very hardworking.
After leaving the dormitory building, Feng Qi walked along the flower beds filled with green plants outside the dormitory building and headed straight for the academy cafeteria.
The evening sky was filled with pink clouds. It was beautiful.
Looking at the sky, he thought of the blood moon that would never set in the future dream.
For some reason, the melancholic feeling that “the setting sun is infinitely good but near dusk”© rose in his heart.
As the focus of Star City Academy’s recent discussion, students greeted him from time to time on the way to the cafeteria. Feng Qi nodded in response.
Seeing the smiles on the students’ faces, the determination in his heart was comforted.
All of this was worth protecting with all his might.
When he entered the academy cafeteria, the fragrance of delicacies brushed past his nose, and the melancholy in his heart instantly disappeared.
There was nothing happier than eating.
Especially since his strength had increased in the future dream, causing his appetite to increase. He felt that he could eat a cow now.
After picking up a tray from the tray rack, he went to the selection area and began to pick his food.
After staying in the future dream for a few days, although he did not feel hungry, he still missed the feeling of eating.
The food at the academy cafeteria tonight was especially sumptuous.
Braised pork ribs, Alaskan abalones, Boston lobsters, stewed pork knuckles, pickled vegetables and vermicelli, tofu with shallots, roast lamb, steamed fish head with chili peppers… He piled them all until the tray was completely filled and could no longer hold anything more.
Amidst the advice of the cafeteria auntie that it was shameful to waste food, Feng Qi smiled and nodded before leaving.
It was impossible that there would be wastage. He would definitely have to get more food later.
When he arrived at the north corner of the cafeteria, Mu Qing and Lin Ran were already there.
Sitting down beside Lin Ran, he reached out, grabbed a roasted lamb leg, and took a big bite. The meat was crispy, crunchy, and neither gamy nor greasy.
Delicious!
As he sighed with emotion, he turned to look at Lin Ran and the few pieces of meat on his plate. Then, he smiled and said,
“You have a good appetite today.”
Hearing this, Lin Ran looked up at the food piled up on Feng Qi plate, then at the food piled up on Mu Qing’s plate, and then finally, at his own with a helpless expression.
“I ate too much at noon today, so I don’t have a good appetite tonight.”
“All the best!” At this moment, Mu Qing looked up and gave Lin Ran an encouraging look. Then, she lowered her head and continued to chomp down.
This made Lin Ran feel a little sad.
He wanted to work hard, but this could not be achieved through hard work.
He ate with Feng Qi and Mu Qing. Looking at them eating heartily, he felt that he was also affected. His appetite had already improved a lot compared to before.
However, in front of Feng Qi and Mu Qing’s terrifying gluttonous appetite, there was no difference whether his appetite was good or bad. The amount he ate could only fill the gaps between their teeth.
At the thought of this, Lin Ran suddenly had an idea.
He felt that he might be able to study a special spell that could help him with digestion. It was similar to how Duan Yu had drunk wine and postured in front of Qiao Feng in a martial arts novel© , and won by cheating.
Looking at the solemn Lin Ran, Feng Qi, who was already hungry, ignored him and began to eat.
He gradually became intoxicated by the collision of his taste buds and the food and could not extricate himself.
This meal lasted for about half an hour. During this time, he went and got another serving.
Just as he thought, after his strength increased in the future dream, his appetite in reality also increased.
After this meal, he obtained nearly 0.5% of energy replenishment, and it was still slowly increasing after eating.
He felt that if his physical strength continued to increase, he might be able to completely rely on the academy cafeteria to satisfy his energy consumption one day.
Of course, he could only think about it.
With such an appetite, he would probably have to eat nearly half of the food in the cafeteria every meal to fill his stomach.
Bai Fusheng would definitely send him for a physical examination, afraid that something had happened to him.
Mu Qing was a Rune Transformer. Her appetite could be explained, and no one would think that there was a problem.
For a normal person like him to have such a terrifying appetite, he would only be thought to have mutated, or parasitized by a domain creature.
After dinner, Feng Qi and Lin Ran went straight to the library.
Studying for the rise of mankind.
After finding a basic book on cultivation technique research, he picked an advanced book on spell research for Lin Ran.
Lin Ran was the founder of a large school of thought in the field of spells in the future. He actually looked forward to Lin Ran’s achievements in this area.
Future’s evaluation of Lin Ran could prove it.
If Lin Ran hadn’t taken a wrong step and interrupted his research on spells, he would have had even more results.
The hand seal technique was not Lin Ran’s end. After perfecting the initial concept, his talent in spell research was still on the rise. However, at this moment, he suddenly switched to researching cultivation techniques.
At this thought, Feng Qi looked up at Lin Ran, who was sitting opposite him.
“Lin Ran, why are you so determined to carry out cultivation technique research? Is it just for your dreams?”
Facing the question, Lin Ran couldn’t help but be stunned.
After a moment of silence, a nostalgic look appeared on his face.
“This is not only my dream, but also my grandfather’s dream. He was once a researcher at the Tiger Soul Research Institute. His lifelong dream was to develop a super cultivation technique that could change the world and make humans stronger than domain creatures. I grew up under his influence, so I’ve always been very interested in studying cultivation techniques.
“Unfortunately, when Grandpa was perfecting the concept of the cultivation technique he proposed, due to the improper circulation of Spiritual Qi in his cultivation, all the meridians in his body were broken and he died. Therefore, I want to shoulder Grandpa’s dream and develop the super cultivation technique he has been pursuing his entire life.”
Feng Qi, who wanted to comfort him, suddenly didn’t know what to say after hearing the cause of Lin Ran’s grandfather’s death.
Encourage him? Obviously, he could not do so. Regardless of whether the cultivation technique that Lin Ran had developed was problematic because of external factors and caused millions of people to have them meridians to break and die, as long as his cultivation technique was eliminated at the source, this problem could be prevented.
As for advice, it would be too unreasonable to advise Lin Ran to give up now.
Therefore, he chose to remain silent.
“Hey, isn’t that the monk?” At this moment, Lin Ran’s words interrupted his thoughts.
Following his gaze, he turned around and saw the monk sitting not far away, reading a book with a yellowed cover seriously.
Seeing this scene, Feng Qi was a little surprised.
He did not expect the monk to take the initiative to study.
He immediately felt a little gratified and felt that the monk was not as unreliable as he had imagined.
At this moment, the monk closed the book and stood up. He walked towards the washroom.
Seeing this scene, Feng Qi also stood up. He wanted to see what book the monk was reading.
After all, he was his student. In the future, he could teach the monk some knowledge plagiarized from the future database according to his preferences.
When he arrived at the table where the monk had been sitting, he reached out to pick up the yellowed book. However, when he saw the two words on the cover of the book, his expression froze.
<Temptations>
???
…
The good impression he had of the monk disappeared at this moment.
With a critical attitude, he opened the book, but the contents of the book made the anger on his face turn into confusion again.
It explained how to subdue the desire in one’s heart and calmly face temptations.
This… was actually a Buddhist scripture.
