Ultimately, all the credit goes to the chip implanted earlier that transformed his body. With the enhancement from the chip, his brain naturally experienced a qualitative improvement, allowing him to flexibly apply the chess games he had seen in his past life to this chessboard, which in turn created the game at hand. Lu Fei Fan himself was unaware that it was due to the chip.
However, despite winning the game, he felt no joy; instead, a faint sense of loss washed over him.
The One-armed Old Man seemed to notice Lu Fei Fan's disappointment and patted him on the shoulder, offering comfort. "Don't think too much about it. Today you played a great game with this old man. Haha, this is the most exhilarating game I've ever had in my life."
"Since you won, then what about the prize..." Duan Zhang interjected.
The One-armed Old Man glanced at Duan Zhang and then removed his mechanical hand. He took out a white cloth from the hand's slot and tossed it to Duan Zhang. Duan Zhang caught it and quickly called for a guard before heading out, not even bothering to call for Lu Fei Fan. Lu Fei Fan wasn't anxious; he wanted to stay and chat with the One-armed Old Man.
Meanwhile, in the prison office, with the conclusion of their match, the betting had also come to an end.
"Well... it seems Director Wan's luck isn't very good," Zhu Qianba remarked as he fiddled with his ring, looking at the young man on the screen who appeared somewhat dejected in front of the chessboard.
Hamed waved for someone to bring over the box of money they had won, along with another box he had brought himself, pushing them toward the calm-faced Director Wan.
"This is a small token of appreciation from our Red Sea Family to Director Wan. Additionally, please convey our regards to Warden Sir. We hope to start a larger collaboration in the future." After sincerely finishing his statement, he made a gesture of crossing his hands and nodding before leading his people away.
"The Red Sea Family really has deep pockets. Why not have Director Wan try something different next time? This amount can be considered my joining fee; if it's not enough, just ask me for more," Zhu Qianba said as he struggled to rise from the sofa. He didn’t even glance at the box of money he had brought and turned to leave with his entourage.
Throughout all this, Director Wan remained silent, chewing on his cigar as he watched Lu Fei Fan on the screen. A glint of ruthlessness seemed to flash in his narrowed eyes before he snapped his fingers and called over an aide.
"What’s this kid's name?" he asked, pointing at Lu Fei Fan on the screen.
"That kid is called A Qi," Syle replied. "But I checked; his real name is Lu Fei Fan. He got into a fight and killed two thugs from an underground gambling den before being locked up."
"A fight?" Director Wan seemed slightly intrigued. "Hmph. Go find someone tough in prison to give this kid a hard time; just don’t kill him."
"Understood."
The prison guard nodded and went down to take care of the matter.
After giving his instructions, Director Wan turned off the image on the Virtual Screen and leaned back on the soft sofa, taking slow puffs from his cigar. Notably, the ground beneath his Leather Boots was already cracked, indicating that his Fumai Energy had reached a terrifying level of mastery.
Meanwhile, in the Prison, Lu Fei Fan was sitting across from the One-Armed Old Man.
“What you just gave to Duan Zhang was…”
Lu Fei Fan couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity.
“Fu Mai Xi Shu,” the One-Armed Old Man replied as he reattached his mechanical arm. Then, with a whistle, a mouse quickly scurried back from the darkness of the cell. The One-Armed Old Man picked up a piece of bread and fed it to the mouse.
“What is Fu Mai Xi Shu?” Lu Fei Fan inquired, puzzled.
“It’s a specialized Pulse Energy cultivation technique developed by the Free Federation specifically for the cannon fodder Fusers in the military.”
Pulse Energy cultivation technique? Lu Fei Fan was taken aback; this aligned closely with his earlier assumptions. However, why was it specifically for cannon fodder Fusers?
Noticing Lu Fei Fan's confusion and dazed expression, the One-Armed Old Man continued to explain.
“The Free Federation has existed for hundreds of years. It has managed to contend with the powerful Mutated Beasts and maintain human civilization’s survival and development not just through advanced technology like hot weapons, but also thanks to the Fusers. Even if Fusers awaken their abilities, they are only slightly stronger than ordinary people. To become truly powerful, they must cultivate Pulse Energy through various secret techniques and strategies,” he elaborated.
“Pulse Energy?” This was the first time Lu Fei Fan had heard such detailed information about it. “What exactly is Pulse Energy?”
“Pulse Energy is the genetic pulse ability cultivated within your body. To put it simply, it is the power of your biological cells. Cultivating it means harnessing the energy produced by your genetic cells. The human body is composed of trillions of cells, and everything in this world is similar; thus, it contains infinite potential and power,” the One-Armed Old Man explained in detail what Pulse Energy entailed.
Lu Fei Fan gasped in awe; this was merely the tip of the iceberg in the world of Fusers. The possibilities and vastness of a Fuser's Pulse Energy were astounding. Just think about those Empowered Individuals capable of slaying terrifying behemoths deep in the ocean—how formidable must their strength be?
The force was overwhelming, almost as if it could overturn the very earth itself.
Just thinking about the possibility of one day achieving such power was enough to ignite Lu Fei Fan's passion.
It was akin to a pyramid; he was merely the foundational stone at the bottom, fortunate enough to be awakened and climb to a higher level, witnessing a broader and more magnificent world. Though fraught with challenges, the path ahead was clear.
“Of course, every Fuser's awakening Empowerment is unique, but only with sufficient Pulse Energy accumulated through cultivation can they transform their Vein Energy Visualization into a one-of-a-kind combat skill exclusive to each Fuser!” One-armed observed Lu Fei Fan's fervor and added more insight.
“So, that book 'Fu Mai Xi Shu' that Duan Zhang is betting with you…” Lu Fei Fan realized the importance of that secret technique which Duan Zhang desperately wanted, even if it was merely intended for the cannon fodder in the military.
“Although it's a Pulse Breathing Technique specifically for the military's Fuser cannon fodder, it’s still an entry-level method. For novice Fusers who have just awakened their abilities, it’s better than nothing,” One-armed explained. “After all, advanced Pulse Energy cultivation methods are exceedingly difficult to obtain. Having this entry-level Pulse Energy cultivation method as an aid is invaluable.”
Lu Fei Fan nodded in agreement. If everyone in this world could cultivate advanced Pulse Energy techniques or methods, then monsters would not have long since occupied vast areas of the sea. Moreover, people's physiques and the levels of their awakened abilities varied; naturally, whether one could cultivate a technique and to what extent depended on numerous factors.
In that case, if Duan Zhang won 'Fu Mai Xi Shu' from One-armed, it was unlikely he would use it for his own cultivation; instead, he would sell it at a high price to someone else.
Having interacted with Duan Zhang, Lu Fei Fan sensed clearly that he was not a Fuser. Thus, acquiring 'Fu Mai Xi Shu' would mean he intended to sell it for a significant profit.
