Qin Siyang glanced at the bracelet.
The bangle was silver-gray in color, warm from the inside out when held, and its material was impossible to identify.
A few days ago, Chris had also given him a bracelet.
That one looked like carved brass, yet it too carried a faint warmth when held.
"What does this bracelet do?"
A trace of confidence flashed in Hu Chan's eyes, "This bracelet is a fourth-tier god-hunting tool I forged myself, and right now, it's one of a kind in existence."
Qin Siyang cut him off mercilessly, "I asked what it does, not for you to brag."
"This bracelet can help you block one mental-type skill attack! Any mental-type skill attack can be resisted!"
After saying this, Hu Chan's mouth curved upward, as if waiting for Qin Siyang's praise.
But Qin Siyang frowned, giving him a strange look.
'Forged by you? One of a kind?'
'What the hell's the difference from the fourth-tier bracelet Chris gave me?'
'Is this guy kidding?'
But Qin Siyang looked again and again.
The confident glow on Hu Chan's face didn't seem fake.
Qin Siyang asked again, "You're sure this bracelet is one of a kind?"
"You doubting me? I spent over two years studying, trying countless material combinations before I finally forged this fourth-tier bracelet! Of course it's one of a kind!"
"Tell the truth."
When he heard the lie detector's sound from Qin Siyang's arms, Hu Chan gave a disdainful laugh, "I told you, this is a fourth-tier god-hunting tool I developed myself, it's one of my core technologies! If it weren't for exchanging it for Zhang Yingrui's corpse, I'd never give it away so easily!"
["Truth."]
Qin Siyang sighed and turned off the lie detector.
Looks like Hu Chan really didn't know this technology had already been invented.
Seeing Qin Siyang's helpless expression, Hu Chan thought he was ashamed by Hu Chan's outstanding talent.
Hu Chan laughed proudly, waving his small hand, "President Qin, to express my gratitude for saving my life, I've decided to give you the right to name this fourth-tier bracelet!"
That look on Hu Chan's face made Qin Siyang think of his past life.
He remembered one morning in first grade.
While memorizing the multiplication table, he'd discovered in amazement that one times two equaled two times one.
Then he realized the astonishing secret that in all multiplication tables, switching the order of the two numbers didn't change the result.
At that time, Qin Siyang realized he was a peerless genius.
Back then, his dream was to become a scientist. But this great discovery made being a scientist seem dull and easy, already in his grasp. He was already thinking about whether to conquer the moon or the sun.
However, Qin Siyang's endless self-inflation only lasted a morning.
Because that afternoon, they had a math class, and the teacher taught them a concept, the commutative law of multiplication.
"What are you zoning out for? Too happy?"
Qin Siyang's memories were interrupted by Hu Chan.
Looking at that radiant smile, that self-satisfied genius gaze, Qin Siyang seemed to see the shadow of his first-grade self.
"Then let's call it the Illuminating Bracelet."
Hu Chan looked puzzled, "Huh? Illuminating Bracelet? Why?"
"Just call it that. No reason."
Qin Siyang put the bracelet on his wrist. When it knocked against the one Chris had given him, it made a crisp ding ding sound.
"Eh, you've already got another bracelet? Looks like a tool too, what's it for?"
Hu Chan's eyes lit up, clearly interested in studying god-hunting equipment.
"Oh, this bracelet is ordinary. It's not as good as your Illuminating Bracelet."
"I know it's not as good as mine, I'm just curious…"
"I'd advise you not to be curious."
Qin Siyang stopped Hu Chan's questioning, then, under his disdainful gaze, dragged Zhang Yingrui's corpse out from his storage box.
"You keep his body safe. However I gave it to you, that's how you'll return it."
"If you give it back to me swollen and leaking corpse fluid, I won't let you off."
"Fine, fine, I got it."
Hu Chan impatiently took out his own storage box and stored Zhang Yingrui's corpse inside.
"I'll return it to you exactly as is in a few days."
"Right, when you make a fake identity for Yu Ziying, make sure it's not too low-level. After all, like you, she's living in the most luxurious single suite in the guesthouse."
Hu Chan nodded, "You're right. Okay, I'll think about it and give you an answer tonight. What plans do you have for today?"
"Are you free to go outside the safe zone with me to hunt gods?"
"Of course not! I still haven't finished dealing with my mess!"
"Then I'll just wander around."
"Wander around? That's your plan?"
"You don't get it. Sometimes when I wander around, plans come to me."
"Unbelievable."
After washing up, Qin Siyang decided to drop by the principal's office first, to ask Wen Shu for a library access card that allowed unrestricted entry.
He had already learned from the Sequence Education forum that the universities within the safe zones all had unique post-apocalypse materials in their libraries, not open to all students.
South Glory University's library permissions were divided into five levels.
Level One was for ordinary students.
Level Two could only be obtained by elite students.
Level Three was for school teachers and a few outstanding students.
Level Four permissions were held by professors like Li Tianming and Zhang Kuang.
And Level Five permissions were reserved only for board members.
To obtain the highest Level Five permission, which allowed unrestricted access to all library collections, was no easy task.
But difficult is a relative term.
"Principal Zhao, give me a Level Five library access card for South Glory's library."
Qin Siyang pushed open Zhao Longfei's office door, dropped this line directly, and sat down on the nearby sofa.
Secretary Lin Yaman stared at Qin Siyang in surprise, as if she were seeing an extinct creature.
As soon as Zhao Longfei saw Qin Siyang, his face showed disgust.
"Qin Siyang, could you at least knock next time?"
"Got it, got it, I'll knock next time. Just get me the access card and I'll leave right away."
"Library access card? Since I've known you, when have you ever read a book…? Hm? Is it for your little girlfriend?"
"What girlfriend, just a normal friend."
Zhao Longfei smiled, "I didn't even say who it was."
Qin Siyang ignored him, "Anyway, I'm here for the Level Five library access card."
"Level Five permission? You're asking straight for Level Five permission. Do you even know what that means?"
"Of course I know."
Seeing Qin Siyang's cocky face, Zhao Longfei couldn't be bothered to argue. He turned to Lin Yaman and said, "Secretary Lin, issue him an unregistered Level Three library access card."
Level Three permission was already something only teachers and a handful of students could have, Zhao Longfei thought that was generous enough.
"Alright…"
"Wait," Qin Siyang's gaze swept toward Zhao Longfei, "I came today for one thing only, the Level Five library permission."
