Invincible Copy System
Chapter Summary
When the Nutrient Agent in the fourth glass cabinet turned transparent, Liu Ning checked the progress bar and saw it had finally stopped at 51%. Liu Ning had naively assumed that 500 kilograms would be enough to complete the progress bar, but Now it seemed he would need another 500 kilograms of Nutrient Agent. Even if there had been 500 kilograms of Nutrient Agent here, the progress bar would never have finished because it becomes increasingly difficult the higher it goes.
The situation unfolded much as Liu Ning had anticipated. When the Nutrient Agent in the fourth glass cabinet turned transparent, Liu Ning checked the progress bar and saw it had finally stopped at 51%. To his surprise, 450 kilograms of Nutrient Agent only managed to get him to 51%. Liu Ning had naively assumed that 500 kilograms would be enough to complete the progress bar, but Now it seemed he would need another 500 kilograms of Nutrient Agent.
In fact, this was predictable. Even if there had been 500 kilograms of Nutrient Agent here, the progress bar would never have finished because it becomes increasingly difficult the higher it goes. Liu Ning felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.
Liu Ning raised his hands, unable to understand what was happening. These hands looked no different than they had a moment ago, yet they had just absorbed 450 kilograms of Nutrient Agent, which was worth nearly 30 billion. Had his fists actually changed at all? Did the change happen during the absorption process, or would it only occur after the progress bar reached 100%?
Liu Ning looked around. There was no testing equipment in this room. This was just Zhou Tao's lounge, and This Fellow was an Ordinary People who didn't usually practice martial arts. Expecting to find testing equipment here was truly a pipe dream.
In a moment of frustration, Liu Ning threw a punch into the air. He didn't expect anything to happen, but the result made his eyes widen.
As Liu Ning threw the punch, he immediately felt the surrounding airflow shift. Right in front of him, the punch actually generated a gust of wind.
A second after the wind appeared, it instantly evolved into Fist Force.
Others couldn't see what was going on, but Liu Ning could see it very clearly. This force surged toward the glass in front of him, and two seconds later, the glass shattered.
A blast of cold wind rushed in from outside. The Trade Building was hundreds of stories high, and they were currently on the 200th floor, so the external airflow was extremely powerful. Liu Ning struggled to stay balanced as many items in the room were sucked outside.
The alarm began to blare. Zhou Tao, unsure of what had happened inside, ordered all the guards to stay back.
"Brother Liu, can I come in?"
Zhou Tao knocked on the door from outside. Actually, Zhou Tao wasn't worried about the items in the room; even if everything was ruined, it was just a drop in the bucket for him. What he worried about most was Liu Ning's safety. If something happened to Liu Ning, he would lose out on a lot of money in the future. Now, the two of them were a community of shared interests.
When the door opened, Zhou Tao was nearly sucked out. The airflow in the room was incredibly strong. Fortunately, the staff outside brought in a spare pane of glass and blocked the opening, allowing Everyone to talk. It was simply too difficult for Ordinary People to stand in such conditions, so the draft had to be stopped.
Zhou Tao looked at it all in disbelief. High-rise buildings used special glass that was not only bulletproof but also resistant to being shattered even by the strikes of warriors. The glass used in Zhou Tao's lounge cost over a hundred thousand per square meter. If even this could shatter, what on earth had Liu Ning been doing in here?
"Um... it seems your glass quality isn't very good..."
"Brother Liu is right, I'll have someone replace it immediately. Are you alright, Brother Liu?"
"I'm fine. Go ahead and find someone to change the glass then. This isn't a good place to talk, let's go outside."
It was great chatting with smart people. Zhou Tao didn't ask a single question. Even though his lounge had been turned into a mess, he wouldn't ask a thing. Doing business was all about secrets.
Zhou Tao naturally knew what to do. This kind of situation was hard to explain anyway. Who among the Strong Ones didn't have a few secrets? Originally, Zhou Tao thought Liu Ning was a Scion of a wealthy family just like himself, but how could an average Young Master obtain so many Vicious Beast Materials? Could those Vicious Beasts really be so obedient as to line up in the Wilderness for you to kill? That was absolutely impossible. Liu Ning was definitely one of the Strong Ones.
One shouldn't ask too many questions regarding the Strong Ones; asking too much might even get one silenced. So, whatever Liu Ning said, he would just listen.
Returning to Zhou Tao's office, Liu Ning made a request to continue purchasing Nutrient Solution. No matter how much effort it took or how much money it cost, he had to keep buying the stuff, and it had to be the highest Rank.
"It's not that I don't want to buy it. If Brother Liu wanted other grades, I still have plenty in stock, but for the highest Rank, your little brother here really has no more. If Brother Liu can wait a while, I can transfer some from other Cities, but that will take time, and the cost will rise to around 68 to 70 million."
Zhou Tao was telling the truth. Although the Zhou Family owned a factory specifically for producing Nutrient Agents, the output was limited, and the quota allocated to each City was also restricted. If he wanted to transfer stock from other Cities, why would those Cities do it for him if there wasn't enough profit?
"Don't worry about that. I'll transfer the money for the previous batch of Nutrient Solution and the upcoming purchase to you. Just use that money to keep buying as much as possible. There's no upper limit."
When Liu Ning had first returned, he had tens of billions in cash. Now, he transferred it all to Zhou Tao, leaving only a few hundred million in change in his account.
He had thought he was quite wealthy, but who knew the System would present such a challenge? Liu Ning had spent nearly 70 billion in capital. Thus, making money was Liu Ning's top priority. No matter what happened, if you didn't have money, the System would turn you into a pauper in a heartbeat.
Looking at the notification on his smart device, Zhou Tao gulped. He had thought that after becoming General Manager, Liu Ning's transactions might not keep pace with his own growth. He hadn't expected Liu Ning's transaction volume to skyrocket. Even though he was Now the General Manager of the Branch Company, Liu Ning remained his number one customer.
Zhou Tao was also puzzled. How exactly was Liu Ning growing? The first time they met, he was selling antiques worth a few million, but Now his deals were consistently in the tens of billions. This massive difference in figures represented a huge leap in strength.
