Chapter 173: Optical Invisibility

‘It would be great if I could get the spirit essence of the Leize Dragon God.’

Unfortunately, Lin Yao was too idealistic. After searching for some time, he didn’t find anything satisfactory. Although he had expected this, Lin Yao could not hide his disappointment.

‘Sigh… What a bother.’

Knock, knock.

“Come in… Qin Ya, you’re here.”

“Do you need to remain here to do something?”

“No, let’s go.”

Lin Yao followed Qin Ya out of the research institute and got in the car. Along the journey, Qin Ya reported to Lin Yao what she had done yesterday.

“The situation with the Yan Family has been settled. I didn’t deal with them. My strategy is to cooperate with them. Your Project Hope will receive 20 million yuan of capital injection, and Yan Yu’er will become your assistant.

“I didn’t immediately deny the trending topics on the Internet. If no one deals with you, the gossip won’t affect you that much. On the other hand, it will boost your fame.

“Lastly, there’s Project Hope. I’ve already registered it with the authorities. Your few assistants will become executive council members, and you will be the president. Are there any trusted people you wish to include?”

When he heard Qin Ya’s question, Lin Yao hardly hesitated. “In terms of work, you are the person I trust the most. As for Project Hope… You can decide on the name. I’m not going to question you on how you spend the 120 million yuan or handle its reputation. I’ll just look at the outcome. Run it well and rescue more people.”

After speaking, Lin Yao reminded Qin Ya again with a serious expression, “Remember, I’ve never thought of using these charitable funds to make money. I just want to help more people. You must run it well. This is your most important job.”

“I understand.”

Lin Yao had delegated all power to Qin Ya. It was not really because he trusted Qin Ya that much. As he had said, he trusted Qin Ya’s work ability. He was not afraid of her betraying him because of his own strength.

‘The mighty force lies within me. As long as I keep improving rapidly, I won’t be afraid of others betraying me.’

With this thought in mind, Lin Yao also passed the certificate in his hands to Qin Ya.

“What is that?”

After accepting it, Qin Ya opened it in confusion. When she discovered that it was the qualification certificate of a diamond genius, her hands froze. She had some knowledge related to this area.

“You only awakened a couple of months ago.”

“That’s right.”

Upon seeing Lin Yao nod casually, Qin Ya couldn’t calm down. The processing time for a diamond genius qualification certificate was six months, and this was the rule set by the national center. Lin Yao had been granted an exception. This showed that he was more talented than she had thought he was.

Nevertheless, she didn’t say a word in the end.

On the other hand, Lin Yao suddenly thought of something. “This is my talent account. When you have the time, can you help me search the web about the spirit essence of divine beasts with the thunderbolt power?”

“Sure. I will also look out for you in real life.”

“But this will cost a fortune, right?”

“The opportunity to apply for diamond resources is something that one can’t be ungrateful for. It can be used as an exchange condition.”

After getting Lin Yao’s account, Qin Ya started browsing through the content of the talent forums enthusiastically. Lin Yao had Level-A browsing authority (restricted to search inquiries). Even her father, Qin Heshun, didn’t have any such a right, let alone Qin Ya herself. Therefore, she was very interested.

While browsing, she also saw that Lin Yao had the opportunity to trade for a king technique, which made her eyes light up.

“Which technique do you plan to learn?”

“I’ll decide later.”

“It would be better to learn the technique earlier.”

“Well, this is on the premise that I’m able to learn it successfully.”

It wasn’t that Lin Yao didn’t want to learn the technique. However, he already knew that high-level techniques and combat skills were not something that could be learned as soon as one obtained them.

For example, he already had three diamond techniques and combat skills—the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique, the Leize Dragon God Meditation Technique, and the Super Electromagnetic Gun. All three of these diamond-level techniques and combat skills were fairly strong, and their prowess would indeed be great if he learned them successfully. However, were these the most critical abilities Lin Yao possessed?

No.

It’s not that Lin Yao didn’t want to use them as his core abilities, but it was too difficult to learn them. As far as the Paladin Body Strengthening Technique was concerned, he had only learned the guardian holy seal. As for the Leize Dragon God Meditation Technique, he wouldn’t have been able to get started without the Tree of Heaven Punishment. As for the diamond combat skill, Super Electromagnetic Gun, Lin Yao had barely studied electromagnetism, and his arithmetic ability was still lacking.

It could be said that diamond-level techniques and combat skills were akin to deep abysses. It would be a waste of time to rush into them without a certain level of comprehension ability and natural endowment.

Diamond-level skills were already terrifying. King-level ones were probably more of a disaster for Lin Yao. Without making certain preparations, he would not learn them rashly.

‘The universal golden techniques are the best choice for ordinary people. Although the best techniques are more powerful, it is harder to get started and more difficult to master them.

‘Fortunately, I can plant trees. No matter what, I have to plant the Tree of Enlightenment next.’

Lin Yao’s thoughts were obvious. He was not naturally endowed with a good comprehension ability. Therefore, he planned to plant a Tree of Enlightenment. He would learn the king-level techniques after developing an adequate comprehension ability.

During their conversation, the two of them arrived at the entrance of a luxury hotel. Qin Ya led Lin Yao to the presidential suite of the hotel directly. In the room, his two assistants, Qin Xue and Yan Yu’er, were already waiting.

When he saw Yan Yu’er, Lin Yao’s chest and abdomen were still aching faintly. That palm strike in the morning a few days ago was Lin Yao’s closest brush with death (the Body of Light had lost its effect because it had been a rainy day). The pain was still fresh in his memory.

On the other hand, Yan Yu’er also felt wronged. She hadn’t acted out of her own accord that day, and she was unaware of Lin Yao’s Body of Light. Therefore, she didn’t know she had almost killed Lin Yao with a palm strike. Instead, she felt that Lin Yao was very petty.

However, this was still the first woman he had bedded, and they would be entangled for a long time in the future. Lin Yao nodded at her, but that was all.

At that moment, Qin Ya said, “Are you going to buy an office in Ninghai City?”

“No.”

“Okay. This is our temporary office in Ninghai City. There is a bedroom next to it, where you can rest.”

As soon as she said this, Lin Yao frowned deeply.

“It costs more than buying an office building.”

To Lin Yao, every cent of money would translate to natural energy, and he could not possibly allow Qin Ya to do that.

In response, Qin Ya smiled. “The costs are not high. It’s free of charge.” Upon saying that, she pointed to Yan Yu’er.

“This is owned by her family.”

“Humph!”

“…”

After being speechless for a long time, Lin Yao shook his head and laughed.

“I’ve always felt like a freeloader, and I’m freeloading at the expense of many people.”

“Alright, don’t be mischievous. What do you plan to do during this time? There are still three hours left before the match. Do you need me to give you information on those teams?”

Over the past few days, Lin Yao had been very busy taking supplies to the welfare homes and schools in Ninghai City. Nevertheless, this was a stable society and one with extremely advanced supplies. His effort in the past few days had already given the welfare homes and primary schools in Ninghai City a fresh new look. With a more detailed search, he might be able to help more people in remote places. However, the return might not be worth the effort. Therefore, Lin Yao had been idle during this time.

After seriously contemplating Qin Ya’s suggestion, Lin Yao made up his mind.

“No, I’d better improve myself. Are there masters who teach optics or optical invisibility?”

“Wait a minute. I’ll get in touch with them.”

Qin Ya had a very wide interpersonal network. Lin Yao was not sure what kind of means she used, but she soon found Lin Yao a professor who specialized in optics to teach him one-on-one.

Of course, they made use of the Internet for their lessons.

‘Technology is invaluable.’

While he was studying, Qin Ya clapped her hands to attract the attention of Qin Xue and Yan Yu’er.

Yan Yu’er was not a magnanimous person. She had the temperament of a little devil and had been provoking Yan Yan. Therefore, she was also hostile to Qin Xue, who was close friends with Yan Yan, especially now that she was also Lin Yao’s assistant.

Although Yan Yu’er was hostile to other girls, she respected Qin Ya very much. In fact, she was slightly fearful of her. After Qin Ya clapped her hands, she immediately stood up.

“The two of you will have to get busy too. Xiaoxue, you will focus on taking care of Mr. Lin’s daily needs in the future. When you have the time, you will continue your studies. Your main task is to observe the role of an assistant. The actual work will come later.”

“Okay, Cous… Manager Qin.”

Upon hearing Qin Xue change the way she addressed her, Qin Ya nodded in satisfaction. She then turned her gaze to Yan Yu’er.

“Yan Yu’er, you should be familiar with the know-how of management. Mr. Lin is still in the growth stage. At this stage, there is only one project to follow up on. This project is tentatively named Lin Yao Foundation. This is a charity organization that focuses on helping Chinese children and orphans grow up safely and happily. You are the foundation’s designated council member, and you can get started by following up on this aspect of the work.”

Before Yan Yu’er had time to say anything, Qin Xue’s face was filled with happiness and pride when she heard this.

“Helping children and orphans… Student Ah Yao is really a good person.”

“Ha ha.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Yu’er laughed twice. Soon, her mocking voice was suppressed by Qin Ya’s threatening gaze.

“Xiaoxue, go to Mr. Lin’s room.”

After Qin Xue left, Qin Ya looked at Yan Yu’er with a cold, aloof gaze. “Keeping your working partner happy can improve your work efficiency. Yan Yu’er, Ms. Yan, regardless of what you have in mind, since you’ve joined us, I hope you can adjust your mindset. Your mom has racked her brains for you.”

This remark seemed to agitate Yan Yu’er. She looked like she was losing control of her emotions.

“I don’t need her to do this.”

“Oh, in that case, you can leave this place and complain to your mother.”

Upon seeing Qin Ya point to the door, Yan Yu’er moved but did not leave. She didn’t dare disobey her mother.

When she saw Yan Yu’er like that, Qin Ya stepped forward and looked at Yan Yu’er from a towering height. With an extremely cold expression, she said, “I don’t care about the conflict between you and your mother. I don’t wish to ask about your entanglement with Mr. Lin either. I just want to warn you. If you can’t endure this, you can leave. No one will stop you, and no one will waste time comforting you. I am not your mother.”

“…”

“Don’t bring your emotions to work. This is your last warning. Even if your mother comes personally next time, I will make you leave. Otherwise, you can persuade Mr. Lin to make me leave.”

There was a huge difference between the auras of the two women. In comparison to Qin Ya, Yan Yu’er was a little girl who hadn’t grown up. Although she was a senior high school sophomore, she was indeed still a young girl.

Lin Yao could hear Qin Ya’s reprimand but didn’t come out of the room in the end. After sighing, he focused wholeheartedly on studying optical invisibility.

When he learned a bit, Lin Yao concluded that optical invisibility was achievable, and he met the conditions for optical invisibility.

‘Therefore, I’m going to have the ability to become invisible!’

The corners of Lin Yao’s mouth curled into a faint smile.
