"What did you call me? Grandmaster? You still want to buy primeval gene modules from me? " This silver-haired man suddenly appeared to stop him. Feng Lin had a strange expression on his face.
No matter who it was, if someone suddenly appeared and called you a grandmaster, you would definitely have a dumbfounded expression.
"You must be a genetic martial master. I've been watching the live broadcast of you clearing monsters for a while now. I discovered that you are constantly experimenting with various genetic formulas. " The silver-haired man politely said, "How about I pay 500 star coins for a primeval gene module?"
There was actually such a good thing?
Feng Lin was astonished.
Gene modules were virtual equipment and didn't require money to synthesize. Now, there was actually a spendthrift who wanted to buy one for 500 star coins.
Did this person mistake him for a genetic martial master who researched gene evolution?
Feng Lin silently mused but didn't deny it.
One couldn't help but say that with the existence of genetic equation, he was indeed a natural genetic martial master. No wonder this person would mistake him.
Virtual equipment could also be sold for money. This was something that Feng Lin didn't expect.
He naturally wouldn't miss out on such a good thing.
In any case, he had already tested the power of these gene modules and knew the evolutionary formula. If he wanted to, he could evolve them any time. Since he could use them to pay for the money, why not?
"Sure." Feng Lin nodded.
"You agree?" The silver-haired man was extremely happy when he heard that. He had a look of impatience on his face. "Then let's trade now."
"Which gene module do you want?" Feng Lin pointed with his finger and showed the primeval gene modules he synthesized to the silver-haired man.
When the people at the side saw this, they couldn't remain calm anymore. Their eyes widened and their breathing became stifled.
Thirty-six lumps of light floated in the air. These were a total of thirty-six primeval gene modules. They also represented the thirty-six genetic paths.
How many genetic formulas did this person know?
Genetic martial master, this person was undoubtedly a genetic martial master. Moreover, he was a grandmaster-level character among genetic martial masters.
"I want this, this, and this! I want all of these! " At this moment, the silver-haired man was already dazzled and didn't know what to choose. He hesitated and asked, "Grandmaster, can I buy more than one gene module at the same time?"
"Sure." Feng Lin nodded. Buying one more would mean earning more money. He was naturally very willing.
The silver-haired man was instantly overjoyed when he heard that. His judgment wasn't bad. He actually bought five gene modules in one go. They were the Tempest Gene, Magma Gene, Air Cannon Gene, Blizzard Gene, and Treant Gene.
The virtual universe was connected to the real world. There was no virtual currency, and all transactions were done using star coins.
Feng Lin reported his account number and soon received 2,500 star coins.
The silver-haired man happily kept the gene module. Suddenly, his eyes swiveled as he intentionally or unintentionally asked, "Grandmaster, may I know which basic genes were used to synthesize this Wind and Thunder Gene?"
It seemed like an extremely ordinary question. Feng Lin glanced at him and only replied, "Hehe … Hehe … Hehe …"
He only chuckled and then said nothing, not revealing anything at all.
What a joke.
Genetic modules were nothing. Genetic formulas were what were valuable. Wanting to obtain it with just 500 star coins?
Not even 5000 star coins were enough!
If I tell you like this, wouldn't I be letting you off easy?
To put it bluntly, genetic formulas were just like that. It might seem like a simple equation, but in truth, it was extremely difficult to develop a new genetic formula through research.
For example:
Airflow Gene x2 + Cloudmist Gene x3 + Moisture Gene x1 = Frost Gene
Airflow Gene x3 + Cloudmist Gene x4 + Water Vapor Gene x4 = Rainstorm Gene
Many people knew that the Airflow Gene, Cloudmist Gene, and Water Vapor Gene could be synthesized into Frost and Rainstorm Genes. However, not many people knew about the following three genetic formulas.
Airflow Gene x4 + Cloudmist Gene x2 + Water Vapor Gene x1 = Hurricane Gene
Airflow Gene x2 + Cloudmist Gene x5 + Water Vapor Gene x4 = Thunderstorm Gene
Airflow Gene x6 + Cloudmist Gene x7 + Water Vapor Gene x5 = Windthunder Gene
The reason why others didn't know that these three basic genes could also be synthesized into Hurricane Gene, Hurricane Gene, and Windthunder Gene was because there was a saying in cultivation: strengthening without regrets.
Once a gene was strengthened too much, there would be no turning back. Unless the gene elimination technique was used to completely remove this gene, there would be no way to awaken it in the future. Also, this technique couldn't be used too many times in the human body. In serious cases, it would cause the human's genetic chain to collapse, turning the human into a cripple.
After all, the virtual universe was only a simulation. It was impossible to restore reality.
The gene synthesis and evolution in the virtual universe had to be based on real data. It couldn't be simulated out of thin air.
If you didn't know the genetic formula yourself, even if you input the corresponding data, the virtual universe's system wouldn't be able to help you synthesize the genes.
Hence, every time they experimented with a new genetic formula, the cultivation future of many people would be the price. Also, the more genetic points were strengthened, the harder it would be to continue strengthening it. This required extremely powerful talent.
For example, Feng Lin's gene evolution path. Monkey Gene x10 + Stonebirth Gene x10 = Stone Monkey Gene.
It seemed very simple, but the interstellar humans generally believed that the Monkey Gene and Stonebirth Gene were low-grade basic genes that couldn't be synthesized.
So many outstanding geneticists and powerful cultivators couldn't discover this point. Why was this so?
The answer was very simple!
This was because the Monkey Gene and Stonebirth Gene were low-grade basic genes. Usually, strengthening them by three points was already very difficult, let alone strengthening them by ten points. This simply exceeded the limits of humans.
It was like everyone knew that if you wanted to become a giant, you just needed to grow to three meters. But could you do it?
Everyone knew this point. Why was it that despite so many scientists researching on growth techniques or using all sorts of methods, they still couldn't grow taller?
Sometimes, it wasn't that people couldn't think of it, but that reality told you that it was impossible.
The existence of genetic equation was to turn the impossible into the possible. As long as one had free genetic points, they would be able to break through the limitations of talent.
Deducing the possibility and realizing it, this was the true strength of genetic equation.
If it wasn't for the assistance of this powerful talent, Feng Lin wouldn't have been able to break through the limit of strengthening low-grade basic genes and synthesize the Stone Monkey Gene.
It was the same for other powerful genetic formulas. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to strengthen so many genetic points.
Geniuses and idiots were born to be unequal. Everything was determined by talent.
In other words, one's ass determined one's brain. Talent limited one's imagination.
Hence, high-grade genetic formulas were very hard to come by.
Not everyone had the heaven-defying talent of genetic equation. From this, one could see how great of an advantage Feng Lin had on the path of genetic cultivation.
…
Feng Lin kept on laughing.
The silver-haired man also knew that his thoughts had been seen through by Feng Lin. His face turned red to hide the awkwardness on his face as he sent out a friend invite.
"Master, let's add each other as friends! In the future, if there are such good things, you can contact me anytime. I'll buy more! "
Feng Lin naturally wouldn't let go of such a sucker. He clicked on 'Agree' and an additional name appeared on his friend list. "Cowherd Galaxy's Silver-haired Male God!"
Feng Lin cast a strange glance at the silver-haired man. Truly, one couldn't judge a book by its cover.
This person looked like an extremely handsome man. Feng Lin didn't expect him to have such a narcissistic name.
"Master, I want this primeval gene module!"
"I want this!"
"Everyone, move aside. I'll take all the remaining ones!"
…
At this moment, seeing that the silver-haired man had successfully bought the primeval gene module, the others all crowded over to snatch it from Feng Lin.
Feng Lin didn't reject any of them. Very soon, all thirty-six gene modules were sold out. He obtained a total of 18000 star coins, no more, no less.
There were truly many rich people. Even virtual equipment could earn so much money.
Feng Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect that his first bucket of gold would be earned through a game.
This money came so easily and effortlessly.
But when he thought about it, the virtual universe wasn't as simple as a game. It was a second world for humans. Although it was illusory, it was also incomparably real.
Feng Lin even suspected that he could earn a lot of money by killing monsters and then synthesizing them into powerful gene modules. Was it a mistake for him to suddenly go to Mars for an internship?
No, it wasn't a mistake.
After a moment of hesitation, Feng Lin tossed aside all the distracting thoughts and steeled his heart.
It was impossible for him to not have money, but money wasn't omnipotent.
Knowledge was priceless. Some knowledge couldn't be bought with money. For example, the knowledge of geneticists.
Only by joining the Giant Pharmaceutical Company would he be able to obtain the system knowledge of geneticists.
However, the virtual universe wasn't a bad way to earn money. There was no need for him to give it up completely.
He could sell the synthesized primeval gene modules on the virtual shopping mall. He could make use of the genetic equation ability to earn money and no one would know of the existence of the genetic equation. It was killing two birds with one stone.
Just when Feng Lin was preparing to continue killing monsters to synthesize primeval gene modules, a mechanical notification suddenly rang out beside his ears.
"Six hours have passed. Violation of virtual prohibition. Forcefully logging off! … "
The virtual world before him started to fade, exploding into data streams that dissipated before his eyes.
"There's no more time!" Feng Lin silently felt that it was a pity. He had always been engrossed in experimenting with the power of gene combinations. Unknowingly, six hours had passed in the real world and he had already violated the virtual prohibition.
He didn't have time to accept the friend requests sent by the others. His body exploded into light spots and disappeared from his original location.
"Ai, why did he suddenly leave?" Everyone was astonished and felt that it was a pity.
Feng Lin slowly opened his eyes and stared outside the cabin window.
The flying shuttle sped forward and a bright red planet appeared before his eyes. There were mountains on the planet, and there were hints of green.
