Chapter 499: Chapter 409: Unlocking the Fourth-Level Gene Lock (Subscribe, please!)_1 The last time he unlocked the third-level gene lock was on May 31st. Today is June 7th. Just a week ago. This speed was unthinkable in the past because the achievement tasks and the personal loan tasks were both tricky to complete. However, this time, the Achievement Task (1) was really empowering and independent of the personal loan tasks. It also granted a lot of Origin Qi Value, causing his attribute values to skyrocket. He was eager to see how powerful he would become with the four-level gene lock, especially his Nerve Telekinesis. "Host, the system will unlock the four-level gene lock and it won’t block your senses, please confirm," the system asked. "Confirmed." "Command confirmed, unlocking will start in ten seconds. Prepare yourself. Ten, nine, eight, seven..." the system continued. With the system’s countdown, Tang Qing felt like he was facing the final judgment. His heartbeat accelerated. Although it wasn’t literally the final judgment, it felt similar. The pain was like being tortured, just like a brutal punishment to his soul. After the first time, however, it became more familiar. At times, pain made one more aware of their own existence. This could be one of the reasons why there were so many masochists. Although Tang Qing was not a masochist, the last torture had miraculously awakened his Nerve Telekinesis, an incredibly powerful ability. Therefore, he couldn’t help but suspect that it was associated with that kind of pain. After all, in novels, wasn’t it often the case that one would rise again after being pushed into death’s corner? Despite the system offering no explanation, Tang Qing couldn’t help but imagine. When the system began counting down to ’one.’ An unanticipated pain, originating at the genetic level, suddenly and swiftly attacked him. Tang Qing immediately tensed up. His eyes turned blood red. He clenched his teeth firmly. His whole body went red as his veins popped out, a sight horrific enough to scare anyone. If one looked closely, they would see his blood flowing rapidly within his veins. At this point, his heartbeat was beyond racing—an average person’s heart would have collapsed, and their veins would have burst due to the high blood pressure. But for Tang Qing, this was just reaching a physical limit. With the protection of the system, even leveling up would make dying difficult. One minute later. Tang Qing, unable to endure the pain, began rolling on the ground, ruining a lot of cabbages. "Roar..." A lengthy and fierce roar echoed. Those who didn’t know would think it was a wild beast. Tang Qing clenched his fist tightly. The pain was unbearable, but he had to endure it because... there was nowhere to run. After a while, The excruciating unlocking process was finally completed... Just like last time, Tang Qing lay on the ground. All dirty and looking like a dead dog, he panted heavily. Damn it, it was indeed agonizing! Could this be considered asking for trouble? Hmm. Definitely. No matter. First, he wanted to feel the changes in himself, his heart entering its divine state. The next moment, Tang Qing suddenly discovered that his Nerve Telekinesis seemed to have become much more potent, and controlling it felt effortless. He looked around and locked his gaze on an army-issue spade used for digging. Tang Qing focused his mind, his Nerve Telekinesis escaped from his body, and, in an instant, the spade began to rise. With a quick thrust of his Nerve Telekinesis, the spade flew over twenty meters away and stuck into the distant ground. Seeing this, Tang Qing couldn’t help but nearly jump with joy. Even though he could lift this and move it slowly before leveling up, he didn’t expect to be able to throw it out now. This was indeed a significant breakthrough. It seems he needs to speed up the completion of the Achievement Task 1, escalate to level 5 as soon as possible. This reminded him the three teenagers who probably saved the Earth in their previous lives from "Out of Control Superpowers". When he remembered the scene where a car was squeezed into a ball, his blood boiled. But one day, Maybe not far away, He believes he can reach that level too. That would be awesome! First, let’s toss aside that random thought. Tang Qing called up his task list: 1. Complete the loan task for the system recommended customer of this month, for details, refer to the task description. Rewards: +80 experience points, task completion 1/1. (Completed) 2. Complete a loan business for a non-system recommended customer this month, amount not less than 800,000. Rewards: +80 experience, task completion 1/1. (Completed) 3. Complete all external loan quotas for this month. Rewards: +80 experience points, task completion 800/800. (Completed) 4. Complete all personal loan quotas for this month. Rewards: +80 experience points, task completion 160/160. (Completed) Achievement Series Task (1). 1. Establish a bank with more than 95% ownership. Rewards: +100 experience, +20 Origin Qi Value, Completion: 1/1. (Completed) 2. Open branches, each branch of the controlling bank is converted into +20 experience, +10 Origin Energy Points. Completion: 10/10. (Completed) 3. Issue loans. For every billion in RMB, give +1 Experience and +1 Origin Energy Point. Completion: 77/100. 4. Absorb deposits. For every billion in RMB received as deposits, give +1 Experience and +1 Origin Energy Point. Completion: 59/100. 5. Level-one bank asset. For every billion in RMB of level-one bank assets, give +1 Experience and +1 Origin Energy Point. Completion: 34/100. 6. Currency issuance: Issue a new currency with a total value of three trillion RMB. For every trillion in RMB, give +100 Experience and +20 Origin Energy Point. Completion: 0/3. He hasn’t worried about the loan tasks for a long time now. After all, he has Fenghua Asset Management Company, and he just gives them money. The key task was the achievement tasks which he had completed the first two, and approximately half of the others. However, the task of issuing Asia Dollars still had a long way to go; he had only issued about 130 billion Asia Dollars so far. There was a gap of over 2800 billion Asia Dollars. There was still a long journey ahead. He needed to take it slow. Tang Qing was a little frustrated at this thought, the issuance scale worth 300 billion RMB, truly deserved to be the final task. He did not know when he could complete it, at least there was little hope to see any progress in the next two months. However, he should be able to complete the tasks of deposits and loans by the end of the month. He should also achieve a Level 1 Asset. If that’s the case, then he could upgrade to a Level 5 Gene Lock by the end of the month, to be on par with his personal level in the system. Suddenly. Tang Qing checked his personal information again: Name: Tang Qing Level: 5 Experience: 810/1600 This month’s loan quota: 800/800 million This month’s personal quota: 160/160 million Withdrawable Assets: 10,5702 million Spirit: 400 Physical Fitness: 400 Origin Qi Value: 149 Exchangeable Foreign Currencies: Dollar, Euro, Yen, Ruble. Due to the significant progress made in the achievement tasks, his experience had soared to 801 points. In terms of withdrawable assets, the arbitrage profits from these days, plus the previous ones, had reached 1 billion RMB. Now, the funds for various tasks mainly use Asia Dollars to exchange for robots. Therefore, he planned to use this money to invest in his own industry. He could not just let it mold in the system. Tang Qing planned to check Magic City later to see if there were any good investment projects. If any, he might consider investing in industries he didn’t want to touch before. Previously he had no particular interest in the real economy, but now he couldn’t afford not to; he couldn’t complete the bank tasks without the real economy. He wasn’t interested in the Internet in the past because he thought it wouldn’t make much money. But now it is worth considering too. Tang Qing thought for a moment and then added the remaining Origin Qi Value. The next moment. Two of Tang Qing’s values changed. Spirit: 474 Physical Fitness: 475 Origin Qi Value: 0 Soon after he added the points, a warm current came over. Tang Qing felt his physical fitness and nerve telekinesis become much stronger. He tried it out. It lived up to his expectations. Previously, he could throw a shovel over 20 meters. Now he could throw it nearly 50 meters. If he clenches his nerve telekinesis into a fist, a punch has the full force of a Level 1 Fighter. Tang Qing felt amazing. "System, do you have any attacking and defending methods suitable for me? ’Thought: The Start’ is too theoretical." Tang Qing asked. That book was merely an introductory reading. It started with various boasts, then taught you how to recognize and generate the mechanism correctly, and finally some training methods. At first, Tang Qing thought it was novel and useful, as if he had discovered a new world. But as he slowly understood it, he found the content somewhat laughable. It deserved to be a beginner. It was indeed very basic. "Host, there is, but the truly applicable neurotelekinetic techniques for combat require unlocking of the Level 5 Gene Lock before they can be purchased and used. Your nerve telekinesis is still too weak right now," the system replied. Upon hearing this. Tang Qing was excited. If there is, then that’s good. No need for him to figure things out, it’s always better to take what’s already there. Level 5 Gene Lock? Isn’t this the end of the month, at most the beginning of next month? He can wait. It will pass in a flash. Suddenly. Tang Qing no longer hesitated. First, he adapted to his body’s limit in the training area. Then he lowered the gear. As said before, with the increase in strength, he could not accurately control the part of the strength that exceeds the level, but he could control the strength that is lower than the level, and it can be self-adjusted to the level of an ordinary person at the lowest gear. In this way, no matter how much force he uses, it only has the maximum value of that gear. He hoped that when unlocking, he could do it in an instant. Basically avoided the occurrence of accidentally hurting people. Half an hour. After adapting to the limit of strength. Tang Qing turned to the lowest gear. And he began to train his nerve telekinesis. He took out two pieces of wood, ten centimeters in diameter and twenty centimeters long. Two utility knives flew up in an instant, turned a few circles in the air, and then slowly began to carve on the wood. As he thought before, now his nerve telekinesis was quite flexible, like the hand. The maximum gear needs to be broken. Once it is broken, the power at a certain gear will be completely controlled. Then. After a night. Tang Qing finally completed two works that he was somewhat satisfied with. Two lifelike wooden tigers. The tigers were about the size of kittens, standing on an oval wooden base. One foot was raised in the air and their eyes were coldly gazing forward, fierce and lifelike. These were, as far as Tang Qing was concerned, his most satisfying works so far.
