Chapter 45: Glasses and Hair Gel Go Hand in Hand
At noon, Xueheng had his lunch at the Canglong Dojo.
Ever since he started his martial arts training, his appetite had gradually increased. If he were to eat regular meals, he would need to consume them by the bucketload.
The direct disciples of the Canglong Dojo usually had specially prepared medicinal meals, along with various nutritional pastes that Xueheng had never seen before.
After eating, his entire body felt warm and comfortable. When he practiced the Dragon Seclusion Technique at this time, he gained more experience than usual.
[You performed a Dragon Seclusion stance practice, gaining +258 Fitness Experience.]
[You performed a Dragon Seclusion stance practice, gaining +221 Force Manipulation Experience.]
[You performed a Dragon Seclusion visualization practice, gaining +79 Visualization Experience.]
[Visualization upgraded to Lv2 (30/500).]
After standing in the Dragon Seclusion stance for an hour, Xueheng slowly calmed his breathing and sorted out the scorching qi and blood in his body, allowing the 'dragon qi' that permeated his body to gradually dissipate.
A summer breeze blew through his mind, bringing a refreshing coolness that soothed his heart and sharpened his thoughts, enhancing his focus.
Closing his eyes, he [visualized] the entire training room in his mind, then took a few steps forward and naturally squatted down, picking up the mineral water bottle from the solid wood floor, twisting the cap open, and gulping it down.
He then walked to the window and effortlessly reached out to open it, welcoming the fresh air from outside.
He didn't look like someone who had lost his sense of sight at all.
When people close their eyes, they lose their sense of distance, balance, and direction.
But even with his eyes closed, as long as Xueheng [visualized] the training room in his mind, everything within it was clearly laid out before him, as if he were using 'mental scanning', no different from having his eyes open.
"Maybe if I keep this up, I'll be able to develop a 'mind's eye'?"
Xueheng thought.
Without relying on his eyes to see, but by using his consciousness to 'imagine', he could predict all of his opponent's actions and break free from the reliance on his senses.
This was his future expectation for the [Visualization] skill.
As he was resting, the phone on the floor suddenly vibrated.
When he picked it up, he saw a message from Rich Lady Rich BF.
【Yuqing Wu: There's a job. Come quickly.】
Xueheng immediately felt a surge of excitement.
Finally, a job!
He quickly stood up, changed his clothes, and practically ran out of the Canglong Dojo. He hopped on a bus and headed home.
After retrieving his library card, he took the time to rub the face of his cat, who was taking a nap, before rushing out again. He made his way directly to the seventh floor of the library on Qing University's campus.
Upon entering, Xueheng looked around. Aside from a resting area where a bespectacled Yuqing Wu sat, he didn't see anyone else.
He scanned the area again and suddenly realized something was amiss.
Hmm? Bespectacled Yuqing Wu... Isn't that just Yuqing Wu?
He turned around abruptly.
The girl took off the frameless glasses she had been wearing, revealing a smile as she looked at Xueheng.
Perhaps it was his imagination, but Xueheng felt that Yuqing Wu was much prettier than the last time he had seen her.
"Your 'consciousness strength' is quite high. I didn't expect you to discover me here so quickly."
The girl blinked, her voice holding a hint of surprise.
Noticing Xueheng staring at the glasses in her hand, Yuqing Wu smiled and said, "...As you can see, this is a Godly Relic."
"Want to give them a try?"
Xueheng reached out and took the glasses from her, his curiosity getting the better of him. "What's the function of this Godly Relic, then?"
[Detecting divine substance. Absorbing divinity...]
"GOD-1280: Ordinary Glasses."
The girl explained.
She sat up a little straighter, her well-developed European-sized breasts pushing outward slightly, causing a subtle tremble.
For some reason, Xueheng felt that Yuqing Wu was much more attractive than before, and he found himself unable to look away.
"The effect is simple," Yuqing Wu said with a playful glint in her eyes as she noticed Xueheng's drifting gaze. "It lowers one's presence, making them seem 'ordinary' and unremarkable, unlikely to attract attention."
She paused, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. "However, the glasses' function is to suppress presence, not eliminate it. Once the glasses are removed, the suppressed presence will burst forth all at once, making it extremely easy to attract attention. The longer they are worn, the stronger the burst of presence upon removal."
Xueheng nodded in understanding. So that was why he had suddenly become so desirable—the glasses' effect had enhanced Yuqing Wu's attractiveness.
"Well, that's a relief." Xueheng directed his gaze toward the girl's alluring features, taking in the sight with newfound freedom. "So, you mentioned a job?"
Yuqing Wu retrieved a stack of documents from her bag and handed them to Xueheng. "This mission is rather unique. It's a C-rank containment mission, one that shouldn't have been assigned to you, but..."
The girl tilted her chin, gesturing for him to look at the files.
Xueheng donned the GOD-1280 glasses, and in that instant, he went from a natural-born soft rice saint to a mere rock by the roadside, causing Yuqing Wu to pause briefly.
He flipped through the files, his eyes scanning the contents.
Divine Relic Eyewitness Report
On October 18th, at 2:32 p.m., a knife-wielding assault took place on Lianming Street in the southern district of Qingcheng City. According to investigations, the assailant was a golden-haired young woman with a tattoo and a crown on her head.
On October 19th, at 1:11 a.m., the woman appeared again...
Attached to the report were several colored photos of a young woman in her late twenties, dressed in a black dress. Her hair was dyed gold, and she had an exaggerated large spider tattooed on her neck. On her head, she wore a delicate crown, with a black flower at its center.
Confirmed: The crown worn by the woman is 'GOD-1105: Villainess' Glory', a 'dangerous-level' divine relic. Please proceed with containment as soon as possible.
Xueheng turned to the last part of the document, which contained information about the Villainess' Glory.
GOD-1105: Villainess' Glory
It actively seeks out women with evil intentions and, when worn, continuously strengthens the wearer's evil thoughts while simultaneously enhancing their physical abilities until they become an unrivaled villainess.
Xueheng placed the file on the table. "Finished reading?" Yuqing Wu inquired.
Xueheng nodded. "Yes, but why assign this C-rank containment mission to me?"
A smile played at the corners of Yuqing Wu's eyes as she appraised him from head to toe. "The Villainess' Glory strengthens the wearer's evil thoughts over time... Women have their credibility too."
"Seeing a handsome man and not being able to help but want to possess him is also a form of 'evil thought'," she added with a smirk.
Xueheng: "..."
He understood why this containment mission was meant for him.
He pushed up the rimless glasses on his nose. "So these glasses are also prepared for this purpose?"
Yuqing Wu nodded, her smile turning playful. "Your foundation is excellent to begin with. Wearing GOD-1280 for a longer period will result in a more intense burst of presence when they're removed, enough to shatter the Villainess' already weak psychological defenses and detonate her desires."
"At that point, you'll be able to effortlessly remove the Villainess' Glory... This containment mission is tailor-made for you."
Xueheng was speechless.
So, he was being asked to sell his sex appeal.
However, it did seem fitting for him.
Perhaps he could give it a shot—he removed his glasses and ran a hand through his hair, spiking it up.
From this day forward, I shall stand among the heavens?
