I Have A Game Clone Chapter 124 – 124 The Zong Family's Troubles

124 The Zong Family's Troubles

“She has 48 points of spiritual power?” Ning Shi was stunned. Hao Meng's strength was probably among the top ranking spiritual-type overlords.

Ning Shi was shocked when he saw her identity as the director of the Heretic Research Institute.

He thought of what Hao Meng had said many times. If she was hiding something, she must have her own reasons for doing so.

Hao Meng must have been referring to her identity as the director of the Heretic Research Institute when she claimed she was hiding something.

She was probably worried that he would distance himself from her after finding out that she was the leader of an evil organization.

She didn't know that after Ning Shi saw her identity, he admired her even more.

Hao Meng was Scientist H, the great scientist who had developed the National Awakening potion. This achievement alone was enough for her to leave her name in the annals of history.

Moreover, she had also invented the stamina potion.

“So that is why Hao Meng is so smart. She's scientist H. It's only natural for her to be so proficient in scientific research. Ning Shi was secretly happy. He mumbled, “I've found a treasure. With Hao Meng's help, the school's research lab will definitely shine.”

Then, he felt a sense of accomplishment. He was very proud to have such a great scientist as his girlfriend.

As for the Heretic Research Institute's evil actions, Ning Shi believed in Hao Meng and was certain that she would not do anything evil.

If she was really evil and unscrupulous, it would have been better for her to stay abroad. The environment abroad was much friendlier to evil organizations.

He shouldn't judge her based on rumors, but rather by her actions.

Hao Meng's return to the country and her contribution of the awakening potion to the country were all acts of justice.

Ning Shi could also feel Hao Meng's kindness from his regular contact with her, so he believed in her. There was either a misunderstanding that the Heretic Research Institute was classified as an evil organization, or there was some other unknown reason.

After settling the intelligence he gathered from the insect world and the black crystals, Ning Shi drove home and talked to his parents for a while.

After his parents became awakeners, their health got better, and they became wealthier. Ning Shi saw the smiles on their faces and felt gratified.

After seeing Ning Shi, his parents were relieved.

His mother, Wang Yan, reminded him again and again, “Son, before you go on a business trip next time, you have to tell us in advance. We couldn't contact you for more than a month. How could we not be worried?”

This time, it was Ning Shi's negligence. Facing his mother's blame, Ning Shi admitted his mistake with a good attitude and repeatedly promised that there would be no next time. Only then did his mother let him off the hook.

After staying at home for more than two hours, Ning Shi returned to school.

Now that the National Awakeners' Competition had ended, the Campus Awakeners' Competition would begin in three days.

In this competition, Ning Shi's disciples could no longer be bystanders.

They had to get good results, enter the national team, and qualify for the World Competition.

After Ning Shi returned to school, he gathered his four disciples at the field.

He wanted to check the progress of his disciples' cultivation.

After not seeing each other for more than a month, Luo Yao had grown a lot taller. She was now 1.5 meters tall!

At first glance, she had lost the innocence of a little girl and had gained a little bit of the playfulness and cuteness of a young maiden.

It was a pity that cuteness was not worth mentioning in front of sexiness. Beside her was Miao Xinyue, who had a hot figure and a charming appearance.

Before, Miao Xinyue had become a lot darker from training, but now she had returned to being fair. Ning Shi knew that this was due to the growth of her transformation-type ability.

Special abilities had a great nourishing effect on the human body, so the awakeners could live a long life without illness or disaster.

The higher the awakener's level, the stronger their abilities, and the better their physical condition would be.

Seeing Miao Xinyue's state, Ning Shi knew that her transformation-type ability must have improved greatly. He nodded in satisfaction.

However, he found it strange that Miao Xinyue's eyes were watery when she looked at him. She had a pair of seductive eyes, but at this moment, her gaze was charged with emotion.

Ning Shi was puzzled, so he pried into her inner thoughts.

[Miao Xinyue: I'm so happy to see Senior Ning Shi, no, Master again. It's just that compared to the enthusiastic Master in my dream, he is a little cold in reality. One day, I'll cosplay the anime character that Master in my dream likes for Master in reality. He'll definitely like it.]

Ning Shi was stunned. He couldn't help but ask internally, “What's up with this skill impartation? Why is Miao Xinyue cosplaying in her dreams when learning skills?”

The system replied seriously:

[Skill impartation is carried out through dreams. The personality and image of the master in the dream are created by the disciples by combining their own life experience and imagination.]

[In reality, Luo Yao admires you, likes you, and has other complex emotions towards you. In Luo Yao's dream, you are both her master and her lover.]

[The person Jiang Bichao missed the most was his mother, Jiang Yingmei. In his dream, you have some of his mother's personality. You are both strict and caring towards him.]

[Zong Shangren likes excitement and challenges and looks down on authority, but he is dealing with childhood trauma. In his dreams, you appear as a shadow and that pushes him forward.]

[As for Miao Xinyue, she envies your power and freedom. She loves anime and cosplay, and she also has a group of people who share her interests in life. So, in her dream, you are an avid anime and cosplay lover. After teaching her skills, both of you have in-depth discussions on cosplay. Specifically, she cosplays while you admire her work.]

Ning Shi had nothing to say, but the game system continued to send him notifications.

[According to the records left behind by the skill impartation, Miao Xinyue has cosplayed many characters for you in her dream, including but not limited to Saber, Rin Tosaka, Kotonoha Katsura, Nami, Rei Ayanami, Rem, and so on. She has received a lot of positive feedback from you in her dream.]

Ning Shi sensed a pattern. In his female disciples' dreams, his behavior was similar to that of his game avatar…

He couldn't do anything about it. The dreams were created by his disciples themselves, and he couldn't interfere.

In order to test his disciples' strength, Ning Shi sparred with each of them individually.

He realized that everyone's strength was improving very quickly!

Luo Yao especially had improved a lot. Her punching force already exceeded 5000kg. With her Level 5 Bajiquan, she could deal explosive damage.

Jiang Bichao and Zong Shangren's punching force had also reached 4000kg, which was almost beyond the strength of a Tier 3 strength-type awakener.

All three of them had different swordsmanship. Luo Yao's mind was simple, so she cultivated basic swordsmanship, pursuing ultimate strength and speed.

Jiang Bichao's swordsmanship focused more on techniques and moves. Despite being two meters tall, he liked to be technical and find the enemy's flaws to defeat them.

Zong Shangren's swordsmanship was swift and fierce. His killing intent was strong and he didn't care about defense when he attacked. He felt like a demon.

As for Miao Xinyue, her transformation-type ability had been upgraded to Level 3. This was partly due to the effect of the skill impartation, and partly because Hao Meng had given her a lot of spiritual crystal resources after knowing that she was Ning Shi's disciple.

After Miao Xinyue transformed into Railgun, not only had she fully mastered Railgun's close combat abilities, but she had also developed the character's electromagnetic abilities.

Ning Shi was very satisfied with the progress of his four disciples.

It had only been two months since the start of the semester. Many students had probably just begun adapting to their new roles as awakeners.

Those with talent might be able to reach Tier 2 and pick up an attack technique, while those with exceptional talent might reach Tier 3 and master an attack technique.

Luo Yao was now a Tier 4 strength-type awakener, while Jiang Bichao and the other two were at the peak of Tier 3. His disciples were also proficient in swordsmanship and fist techniques.

With such strength, it was not just a dream for them to win the Campus Awakeners' Competition.

After the test, Ning Shi said, “For the sake of fairness, the school will still hold a selection match in advance to decide the candidates for the Campus Awakeners' Competition. A total of 10 people will be selected for the school team, and you will also be participating in the selection.”

“Don't worry, Master. Our goal is to be the national champion. We will surely win in the selection.”

Following Luo Yao's words, Jiang Bichao and Miao Xinyue also made their promises.

Only Zong Shangren's brows were furrowed, as if he had something on his mind.

Ning Shi listened to his inner thoughts.

[Zong Shangren: Things at home seem to be very troublesome. Should I ask Master for help? To me, Master is the most powerful awakener. Yi Shengjia is only powerful in name.]

After Ning Shi read his thoughts, he said,”You three go cultivate. Zong Shangren, you stay behind.”

After Luo Yao and the other two left, Ning Shi stared at Zong Shangren and asked, “Ren, you seem to have something on your mind. Tell me if you need anything. I'm your master, and I'll definitely help you.”

Zong Shangren was very touched and said emotionally, “Thank you, Master!”

“I do have something that I need your help with. It's like this…”

Zong Shangren told Ning Shi what happened.

It turned out that Zong Shangren was born into a super-rich family. His father, Zong Qing, was the CEO of the Twin Group, and was once the richest man in the Yunmeng Kingdom.

The Twin Group was mainly involved in the food and beverage industry, and its development had been stable. However, his family had recently received a threat.

In the letter, they were ordered by a mysterious party to produce a drink. If they did not cooperate, people would be killed.

As a veteran in the business world, Zong Qing instinctively sensed that something was wrong. He chose to call the police at once and used his connections to find the awakeners in the Investigation Department to investigate the matter

Unfortunately, the next day, three of the Zong family's housekeepers were killed.

The Zong family received another letter, the contents of which requested the Zong family to send away the Investigation Department within three days and cooperate with them in the production of the drink.

If they didn't comply, they would kill the direct descendants of the Zong family.

Zong Qing didn't comply, but instead invited an expert to the Zong family to deal with this problem.

“There's something strange about this,” Zong Shangren said. “The Wanyong Group's CEO, He Yunfan, actually called my dad and persuaded him to cooperate, saying that the He family had also encountered a similar incident.”
