Chapter 21: Chapter 19 Full Recovery of Strength

“I’ll buy a bottle to try the effect first.”

Lin Yuan set the quantity of the advanced nutrient solution to ‘1’.

Then he clicked to purchase.

The price of a bottle of advanced nutrient solution was two hundred thousand.

Equivalent to the ten-year income of an ordinary citizen without eating or drinking.

And a nutrient solution of advanced quality was already a restricted resource.

...
If Lin Yuan hadn’t been promoted to a second-tier citizen, let alone buying it, he wouldn’t even be able to see the option.

“At my current strength level, do I probably belong to the unevolved?”

After purchasing the advanced nutrient solution, Lin Yuan began to evaluate himself.

According to the Cosmic Human Alliance’s different description standards for each evolutionary stage, the Innate Realm in martial arts was barely at the threshold of evolution.

That is, he was at the unentered level.

Of course, realm is realm, and combat power is combat power.

The two should not be conflated.

With Lin Yuan’s mastery of the Free and Unfettered Realm,

he could exert a hundred percent effectiveness from one percent of strength,

Even though only at the unentered level, when facing ordinary entered-stage evolvers,

he could still crush and thrash them without effort.

“Among entered-stage evolvers, the first layer is divided into twelve segments; if I could recover all my strength, I would probably be between the tenth and twelfth segments…”

Lin Yuan speculated in his heart.

Purely in terms of destructive power, the Grand Master Realm was equivalent to the first layer’s first to third segments, the Great Grandmaster Realm to the fourth to sixth segments, and the Mythical Realm to the seventh to ninth segments.

The Free and Unfettered Realm, I estimate, is almost reaching the limit of the first layer, approaching the level of the second layer.

A true second-layer evolver, while not reaching the ‘City Destroyer Grade’,

would not take long to destroy a city without opposition from evolvers of the same level or technological weapons, a casual blow could easily demolish buildings and skyscrapers hundreds to thousands of meters tall.

…

Senior evolutionary fluids, these restricted resources, would certainly need to be allocated from other major cities,

It would take at least half a day to a day to be delivered to Lin Yuan’s hands.

Taking advantage of this time, Lin Yuan planned to buy a house.

More precisely, a practice venue.

The room Lin Yuan currently lived in was too cramped and fragile.

Sometimes Lin Yuan even worried that if he stretched himself, he could bring it down.

Most importantly, sometimes Lin Yuan needed enough space to verify his martial Tao.

And as an evolver, he also needed independent space.

His current residence clearly did not meet the requirements.

“Shuiyue Residential Complex…”

After browsing online for a while, Lin Yuan chose this residential complex.

The Shuiyue Residential Complex belonged to the high-end real estate area of Dongning City and had just started selling not long ago, located in the suburbs.

In the interstellar era, the real upper-class elites preferred not to live in the city’s center.

Therefore, high-end residential complexes like Shuiyue, built in the suburbs, close to nature, and with a focus on the environment, had always been popular.

Lin Yuan glanced at the real estate prices of Shuiyue Residential Complex.

They were around ten to fifteen million.

Moreover, second-tier citizens could buy them at half price.

Lin Yuan was not surprised by this.

In the cosmic human civilization, it is completely normal for higher-level citizens to enjoy many welfare benefits.

After all, citizenship levels cannot be inherited, and all high-level citizens alive today have made real contributions to human civilization.

“This will be the complex.”

Lin Yuan went out and headed towards the suburbs.

Half of ten to fifteen million is five to seven and a half million.

That exceeded Lin Yuan’s current savings limit.

However, after being promoted to a second-tier citizen, Lin Yuan obtained a credit card from the central bank.

He could borrow twenty million Civilization Coins interest-free.

These twenty million Civilization Coins only needed to be returned within fifty years.

It was one of the implicit benefits for second-tier citizens.

With the status of a second-tier citizen, earning a few million a year with ease, it would only take about seven to eight years to pay off twenty million.

It was not a high-risk loan.

…

Soon enough,

Lin Yuan arrived at the sales office of Shuiyue Residential Complex.

There were not many citizens here, but without exception, they all had extraordinary temperaments and belonged to the real elite.

After all, ordinary citizens rarely wandered around high-end real estate worth ten to twenty million.

When Lin Yuan walked in, although he was dressed plainly, he was not ignored, as a staff member promptly greeted him.

“Hello sir, what type of house would you like?”

The staff member was a girl, fair and bright with large eyes and a tall figure, wearing a somewhat tight uniform that faintly outlined her curves.

“A bigger one, a quieter one…”

Lin Yuan relayed his requirements.

“Yes… yes… yes…”

As the conversation continued, Anna’s heart grew heavier.

She glanced at the young man in front of her who was under twenty. Could he really be here to buy a house?

It wasn’t that Anna looked down on Lin Yuan, but those who came here to inquire, nine out of ten were just asking, and only one might have a bit of buying intention.

This was perfectly normal, after all, involving affairs worth ten to twenty million, everyone would be more cautious.

But the tone of Lin Yuan’s inquiries did not seem like he was just asking…

Thinking this, Anna immediately became enthusiastic and even stepped closer to Lin Yuan, almost clinging to him.

“I’ll take this one.”

After looking for a while, Lin Yuan finally made up his mind.

This house had three floors, up and down, and to call it a house was an understatement; it was more like a manor, with a special yard, and even an underground training ground.

“Are you really buying?”

Anna was thrilled inside.

“Do you need to apply for a loan, sir?”

She asked cautiously.

“No need.”

Lin Yuan shook his head.

Taking out a loan would come with interest, but with that credit card from the central bank, he could get an interest-free loan.

“You guys have a fifty percent discount for second-tier citizens, right?”

Lin Yuan inquired.

“Indeed, for higher-level citizens, our Shuiyue…”

Anna answered routinely.

But she stopped mid-sentence, staring in disbelief.

“Sir, you are… a second-tier citizen?”

Anna’s voice trembled.

She had seen many rich people coming here to buy houses, but second-tier citizens or above were extremely rare.

Mainly because the whole of Dongning City only had so many second-tier citizens, too few in number.

“Sir, please wait a moment, I’ll call our manager over.”

Anna apologized repeatedly and ushered Lin Yuan into the VIP room.

…

The sales office resting area.

Zhao Qiwu took a sip of water and then immediately walked out.

The opportunity to work part-time here had come at a great cost to her.

For high-end properties like the Shuiyue Residential Complex, the sales ladies’ appearance and figure were the most basic requirements, while their ability to be cordial and their customer service skills were extremely important.

They had to ensure that customers did not feel the slightest bit of displeasure, yet were willing to spend their money happily.

“I wonder when I’ll be able to sell a unit…”

Zhao Qiwu let out a sigh.

Then, she looked up.

“Hey? Isn’t that Lin Yuan?”

Zhao Qiwu immediately noticed Lin Yuan, who was talking with Anna.

“What’s he doing here?”

Zhao Qiwu was full of confusion.

She and Lin Yuan were classmates. Although they didn’t interact much, she was aware of his family’s general financial status.

Logically, Lin Yuan’s family couldn’t afford a house in the Shuiyue Residential Complex.

“Could he be just looking around?”

Zhao Qiwu speculated inwardly.

She had no intention of going over to greet him.

Firstly, they were classmates, and meeting in this setting would be somewhat awkward.

Secondly, Anna had already taken the initiative, and if she went over, it might seem like she was ‘stealing a customer.’

Even in Zhao Qiwu’s mind, Lin Yuan, this ‘customer,’ simply didn’t have the financial ability to buy a house.

However.

What happened next.

Caused Zhao Qiwu’s eyes to widen in shock.

First, she didn’t know what Lin Yuan said to Anna, but then he was respectfully escorted into the VIP room by Anna.

My goodness.

That was the VIP room.

Normally, only after a financial check and confirmation that one had a bank balance of over twenty million, showing adequate purchasing power, would someone be invited into the VIP room.

Zhao Qiwu racked her brains but couldn’t figure out why Lin Yuan was invited into the VIP room.

If Anna wasn’t a senior employee here and wasn’t likely to make such a basic mistake, Zhao Qiwu would have felt compelled to stop it.

However.

While Zhao Qiwu still hadn’t collected her thoughts.

A middle-aged man with an authoritative expression hurriedly came over and then entered that VIP room.

Before entering the VIP room, the middle-aged man even paused to knock on the door patiently.

“Mr. Wang…”

Upon seeing this, Zhao Qiwu swallowed hard.

Mr. Wang was the manager of the sales office, rumored to have deep connections with several top leaders in Dongning City.

With Mr. Wang’s status, he hardly ever received customers anymore, and even with significant purchasing power, it was rare to see him.

Not to mention him coming over in such a humble manner.

“Could I have been mistaken?”

At this moment, Zhao Qiwu started to doubt her own eyesight.

It simply couldn’t have been Lin Yuan just now, but someone who looked similar to him and was a big shot.

But would a big shot wear such shabby clothes?

As for that outfit, Zhao Qiwu remembered Lin Yuan had also worn it at school, hadn’t he?

Could there be such a coincidence in the world?

Filled with confusion, Zhao Qiwu waited outside.

Moments later.

Zhao Qiwu saw Lin Yuan being respectfully escorted out by Mr. Wang.

Then, under Mr. Wang’s personal guidance, they went to the residential complex behind to view houses.

“It really is Lin Yuan.”

This time Zhao Qiwu looked very carefully.

She confirmed that the young man walking in front of Mr. Wang was indeed her classmate.

“What are you looking at?”

“Staring at the customer like that, what kind of training have you had?”

At this point, Anna came over, frowning at Zhao Qiwu.

“Sister Anna, I was just curious. What kind of person is he, that even Mr. Wang…”

Zhao Qiwu didn’t continue with the words ‘is like a grandson to him’, but her point was clear.

“Mr. Lin is a valued guest of our Shuiyue Group. Don’t refer to him as ‘that person’. If the manager finds out, he won’t let you off,” Anna glared at Zhao Qiwu and continued, “Also, don’t inquire about the guest’s information. That’s also the company’s policy. You understand?”

“Yes, yes, I understand,” Zhao Qiwu replied, going slightly pale.

Anna had brought up the company rules, which obviously meant that Lin Yuan’s true identity was far beyond what someone like her could fathom.

…

“The environment is quite nice.”

At the Shuiyue Residential Complex, number thirty-two, Lin Yuan sat in the underground training room, his expression showing satisfaction.

You get what you pay for, and this place indeed met Lin Yuan’s standards.

“Right, I need to change the address.”

Seemingly remembering something, Lin Yuan opened the shopping APP and changed the delivery address for the ‘high-grade nutritional supplement’ he had purchased to his current address.

Half a day later.

A strange man came to the Shuiyue Residential Complex and stopped in front of Lin Yuan’s residence.

“Hello, Mr. Lin, here’s the product you ordered. You can open it with your fingerprint,” he said.

Lin Yuan took the sealed alloy box from the man and ran his finger over the top of the box.

“Beep! Fingerprint verified,” announced a synthetic electronic voice. Following that, the alloy box opened to reveal a ten-centimeter-long test tube.

Inside the test tube was a sky-blue liquid.

“Worthy of a nutritional supplement costing two hundred thousand Yuan per dose,” Lin Yuan smiled.

Gulp.

He opened the ‘high-grade nutritional supplement’ and drank it down in one go.

Immediately, Lin Yuan felt a scorching sensation spread through his limbs.

The formidable strength nearly burst through his body, threatening to explode in all directions.

“Assimilate.”

Lin Yuan sat down cross-legged.

Suddenly, the terrifyingly hot flow swiftly merged into his body, continuously being refined.

An hour later.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes silently.

“Have I stepped into the Grand Master Realm?”

Lin Yuan’s eyes shone brightly as he felt the surge in vitality and Inner Qi within his body.

“I’ll probably need about twenty more bottles to fully restore my strength,” he estimated. Confirming the efficacy of the high-grade nutritional supplement, Lin Yuan hesitated no further and purchased twenty bottles.

Two days later, Lin Yuan had absorbed all twenty bottles of the high-grade nutritional supplement and fully recovered his strength.
