Level Up in Martial World

Lu Zhen nodded his head with a satisfied expression as he looked at the five people present in the room.

One of the people looked like a beggar with his hair aged and his clothing tattered and patched up, while three of the people wore regal clothes with an elegant demeanour.

If you looked closely at the three people, they all had an arrogant expression on their faces, which they suppressed while bowing towards Lu Zhen, their eyes filled with reverence.

The last person was a familiar woman, Lu Qing, one of the twins, who was wearing a navy-coloured robe.

"You can rise up now," Lu Zhen spoke, and the five all simultaneously stood up.

"How is the machine going?" he said as he looked at a capsule that was standing at the centre of the room, floating in mid-air as if it were defying gravity itself.

"Young master, these machines are quite interesting, and I have been studying them for a long time only the final step is left now," Lu Qing said with a smile on her face.

"The machine is finally ready?" Lu Zhen's eyes shined with glee.

"Yes, from my knowledge combined, it looks like everything is completed, except for these strange devices. What is this device used for? Although you gave us the blueprint and we constructed it, we don't know what to do with these." Lu Qing pointed at the mobile device which was connected with a wire that linked all the things in the room.

"On these is the remote to activate all the things," Lu Zhen spoke with a smile on his face.

"Hmm?" Lu Qing was confused when she heard this, looking at Lu Zhen in confusion.

"You won't understand; your little brain can't comprehend such stuff anyway." Lu Zhen said with a smile and patted her.

Lu Qing blushed when she felt the warm hands of Lu Zhen on her head as she pouted.

"Now let's check if it can be operated or not," he said as he took the mobile-like device.

"Finally, my previous life's hard work as a computer programmer is finally going to be useful for at least one thing now," Lu Zhen thought with a bitter expression on his face.

But he didn't regret being born in this world where there was a slight hope of immortality with omniscient and omnipotent power. This was his goal.

In fact, it was the goal of every living being, engraved in their being since they are born—to live forever. Lu Zhen was no exception; no matter how hard one denies it, unless there is no option, a being never chooses death and always tries to live.

It can change for various reasons, however, instinctively the living want to live longer.

This was a fact that cannot be changed no matter what.

Lu Zhen looked at the mobile device and started to type on the metal keyboard. It wasn't really hard for one to construct a mobile here manually, with Integrated Circuit being crafted easily if they knew the model and the materials, which were all very common in the martial world, just like gold, which was a mortal's currency.

It had no real value to a martial artist and was in abundant quantity as well.

While the other external parts were even easier to construct. Lu Zhen could even make a smartphone if he had wanted to, however, it was useless to him and would take too much.

Lu Zhen's hand moved with familiarity as he typed the codes, giving each and every node their respective instruction in the machine-level language.

Slowly, the entire machinery in the room started to brighten, illuminating the entire room. Countless machinery started to rotate, all powered up one by one until the middle pod started to spin as well.

"Hmm." Lu Zhen double-checked all the codes to see if they were correct or not, and he physically inspected every piece of machinery to ensure their accuracy individually. He did this until he was sure that everything was in order.

"You guys can leave now," Lu Zhen turned back to them with a satisfied expression on his face.

"Thank you, young master," the four hurriedly bowed their heads with excitement. While Lu Qing just nodded.

"I will teach you three, my alchemy technique after this," Lu Zhen suddenly spoke as he looked at the three alchemy apprentices with regal clothes and an elegant demeanour.

The three's eyes lit up with excitement when they heard this, and they immediately knelt in front of Lu Zhen.

"Please take us as your disciples," the three of them said in unison.

"Good," Lu Zhen nodded his head. He wouldn't mind some extra free workers—cough, disciples. Especially since they were alchemists and could concoct some pastes. Although the apprentices weren't as skillful as Lu Zhen and weren't very efficient, an extra pair of hands was always welcome. He could save some valuable time with them.

"What do you need, old man?" Lu Zhen smiled as he looked at the beggar.

"I want some of that knowledge, young master. I have seen countless languages around the town, but it is the first time that I have seen such an intriguing piece of this language. This is the most profound and vast knowledge I have known till now. I want to learn and explore this language." The old man laughed maniacally like a man possessed.

Lu Zhen frowned upon hearing this; however, he still nodded his head.

"If you want to learn the language, you have to become my follower, then. I am looking for talented individuals like you, scholars."

The old man hesitated when he heard this. However, looking at the machinery in the room, he gritted his teeth.

"This subordinate greets his master." The old beggar decisively bowed his head.

"Good, call me Young Master Lu Zhen or the Leader from now on, got it?"

"Yes, Leader," the old man voiced with reverence.

"Then all of you guys leave the room now," Lu Zhen said with a smile on his face.
