Scholar’s Advanced Technological System - Chapter 814

Chapter 814 – Reward For The Urgent Mission?

Even though there was still a colonizer in a coma, the crisis of the X-0172 bacteria was undoubtedly over.

Because they had the pheromone that could remove the bacteria?s defense system, the tough spores were no longer an issue.

Two days after the good news traveled from the Moon Palace to Earth, which was the 33rd day of Lu Zhou?s mission, Lu Zhou received a pop-up window while he was working at the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.

[Congratulations, user, urgent mission completed!

[Mission completion details: Recently, humanity has faced its greatest threat. Fortunately, the crisis was avoided. Congratulations on finding a way to eliminate the bacteria. The decisions you make will change civilization…

[Mission evaluation: A+

[Rewards: Experience pack (1-??? experience points), civilization rescuer medal (materialism +10)]

Lu Zhou: ?…??

Maybe because he asked the system for help, or because there was one more infected person, his evaluation was only an A+.

But that wasn?t the main part, he didn?t care about the S+ evaluation rewards anyway.

What he didn?t understand was what the hell was the ?civilization rescuer medal??

He had won many awards over the years, but this was his first time winning an award from the system.

What does this thing do? Can I exchange it for general points or experience points?

Lu Zhou was muddled. He opened his inventory and saw the medal quietly lying there.

A circle of golden stars wrapped around the medal. It floated above an inverted triangle metal base, as if there was some kind of magnetic force.

The medal also had a red and blue ribbon attached to it. Even though Lu Zhou didn?t know what material the ribbon was made of, it looked extravagant.

?Magnetic levitation? Or some other kind of force??

Lu Zhou was curious. He took out the medal from his inventory and played around with it. He then opened the medal instructions.

[The medal is issued by (REDACTED), according to the (REDACTED) convention signed in (REDACTED), this medal is among the highest honors for individuals from low-level civilizations. If immigration channels are open, individuals from low-level civilizations can use this medal to obtain full citizenship from higher-level civilizations…

[Note; This medal has a built-in anti-counterfeit detector. Do not disassemble. Do not scan.]

?I feel like this medal just revealed an extraordinary secret.?

Lu Zhou looked at the medal instructions on his inventory, and he began to contemplate it.

By looking at the sentence, the (REDACTED) words were a subject, an adverbial, and an attributive. He originally thought that this system was probably created by a high-level civilization or institution called ?Future?. But now, it seemed like things were more complicated than he had thought.

After pondering for a while, Lu Zhou gave up and shook his head.

Even though he wanted to know what was redacted, the system clearly had a reason for keeping this a secret from him.

So far, it seemed like the system didn?t have malicious intentions. The system even wanted to protect him and benefit Earth?s civilization.

Maybe the system is waiting for an opportunity?

Lu Zhou believed that once he upgraded all of his subjects to level 10 and unlocked the [Future Era] and [Giant Engineering Structure] missions, more secrets of the system would be revealed to him…

After placing the medal back into his inventory, Lu Zhou reached out and selected another object in his inventory.

After he pressed the ?activate button?, a bunch of mysterious stars popped out of the gift bag. Some tiny stars landed on his face, so he took a step back.

However, Lu Zhou soon found out that the stars weren?t made out of anything; it was similar to a holographic projection.

Then, a light blue dialog box appeared on the screen.

[Congratulations, user, 300,000 physics experience points awarded!]

?I completed a biological mission, but I received physics experience points? Is the system hinting at me to study physics??

Lu Zhou smiled and shook his head. He reached out and tapped the screen.

His new characteristic panel was displayed in front of him.

[

A. Mathematics: Level 8 (774,000/3 million)

B. Physics: Level 7 (313,215/1.2 million)

C. Biochemistry: Level 6 (10,000/600,000)

D. Engineering: Level 5 (10/300,000)

E. Materials science: Level 6 (63,000/600,000)

F. Energy science: Level 3 (50,000/100,000)

G. Information science: Level 3 (3,000/100,000)

General points: 2,335

]

?Mathematics level 8, physics level 7… The next level up requires millions of experience points. It will be a while before I level up again.?

Lu Zhou closed his characteristic panel and looked at his mission panel.

His mission chain was lit up again. He closed his eyes and exited the system.

When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the dean?s office.

Lu Zhou leaned back in his chair and rested for a while. He was about to continue working when he suddenly heard a knock at his door.

?Come in.?

Professor Liu Zuobing opened the door.

He cheerfully walked into the office while holding an experimental report. He walked toward Lu Zhou?s desk and spoke.

?The experiment was successful!

?The 18S-rDNA gene fragment is compatible with the X-0172 bacteria. So far, we have successfully transcribed the special proteins and amino acid derivatives that we need!

?If everything goes well, we should finish this research project in one month!?

Lu Zhou took the experimental report and briefly glanced at it. He nodded with satisfaction.

?Nicely done… You must have worked very hard.?

?Not hard at all. This is my research direction anyway. I have to thank you for providing me the opportunity.? Professor Liu Zuobing smiled and suddenly remembered something. He said, ?Oh yeah, when I analyzed the X-0172 genome, I found something interesting.?

Lu Zhou said, ?What??

?How do I put it? Maybe I?m wrong…? Professor Liu said, ?This genome gives me a feeling that it didn?t come from natural evolution. I?m not sure if it?s a coincidence or what.?

Not from natural evolution?

Lu Zhou paused for a second. He began to frown.

?Not from evolution? Could it be…?

He suddenly stopped talking.

He instantly realized what could be happening.

Liu Zuobing looked at Lu Zhou and nodded.

?Yeah, it?s almost like it was created manually.?
