I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Chapter 146 - Rapid Collection Of Energy Points

Chapter 146: Rapid Collection Of Energy Points

The dark night concealed everything, and many things happened at night. What Lin Yao, who had not gone out, did not know was that the police sirens rang loudly tonight and the police cars and the team in black sped around Ninghai City.

The night was busy, yet everything was silent. When the sun rose from the east to pierce the night sky, Ninghai City was no longer busy yet silent. It was as if the city had been rejuvenated. There was noise everywhere in town. The entire town seemed like a giant who had slowly woken up.

Human beings were the first to wake up. The sky was bright, and both the young and the elderly started their exercises under the morning sun.

Out of the five members of Lin Yao’s family, his parents and younger siblings had gone out for their exercises.

Lin Yao had woken up as well. He had slept deeply last night. Sleep had washed away his fatigue, and he felt refreshed and energetic.

However, he did not go running. Such training was too inefficient, and it was just a waste of time for him.

Lin Yao, who was wide awake, first sank into his Sea of Consciousness. He discovered that his Tree of Heaven Punishment had recovered and worked on the visualization of the Leize Dragon God Meditation.

Lin Yao used the Tree of Heaven Punishment to visualize the Leize Dragon God Meditation image. It was very effective, and a textured image of the Leize Dragon God soon appeared in his mind. Then, he was absorbed in understanding this thunder method.

Although the Tree of Heaven Punishment was amazing, it had not fully developed yet. After a while, the Tree of Heaven Punishment dimmed. Without its support, Lin Yao’s Leize Dragon God dissipated.

The meditation image might have dissipated, but Lin Yao still benefited from it.

Heavenly Thunder Manipulation LV2 (15%)

Lin Yao’s understanding of the thunder method increased by 2% after one round of meditation, and his accelerated thinking increased by one second, reaching 17 seconds as well.

Afterward, Lin Yao picked up the books on electromagnetism and pored over them.

‘Super Electromagnetic Gun… I can try it now.’

Since he had this idea, he decided to do it right away. Lin Yao took the specially-made Super Electromagnetic Gun artillery shells out with him and found an open space. He followed the description of the Super Electromagnetic Gun combat skill and used his knowledge of electromagnetism to unleash the combat skill.

One had to sense the magnetic field and control the electric current to form two parallel, long, straight tracks on both sides of the arm so that the electric current could flow along the tracks to generate strong magnetic force, thereby launching the projectiles.

This was the basic method of using the Super Electromagnetic Gun. However, Lin Yao failed during the second step, which was controlling the electric current to form parallel, long, straight tracks on either side of the arm.

It could not be helped. Thunder and lightning were powerful, but one of their characteristics was that they were difficult to control. After many trials, Lin Yao was unable to make the two electric currents completely parallel to each other. Instead, they meandered like snakes and intersected with each other like centipedes.

‘I know that it’s not easy. I remember that there are many electromagnetic abilities in the anime series “A Certain Magical Index”. However, the only person who owned the Super Electromagnetic Gun was LV5 Misaka Mikoto. Wait!’

Lin Yao was reminded of Misaka Mikoto and suddenly thought of something. ‘In “A Certain Magical Index”, it seems that it is not one’s talent that determines the level of the superpower, but one’s arithmetic ability.’

When he thought of this, Lin Yao’s eyes suddenly lit up. Then, before he could experiment with the Super Electromagnetic Gun again, there was a flash in Lin Yao’s eyes and his expression became indifferent and aloof. He had entered a state of accelerated thinking.

Due to the acceleration of his thinking speed, everything in the world slowed down from Lin Yao’s perspective. At the same time, his arithmetic ability became stronger due to the electric current that flowed into his brain. Lin Yao realized that it was easier to control the electricity in his current state.

‘I’ll sense the magnetic field, create long, parallel, straight tracks, and introduce electric current to create a strong magnetic force… Hiss!’

One had to complete four steps to launch the electromagnetic gun. Lin Yao completed the first two steps easily but failed to introduce the electric current to create a strong magnetic force due to insufficient control. In fact, he had to create parallel tracks on both sides of the arm, so the failed experiment also injured his arm. Fortunately, these injuries quickly healed thanks to the power of the sun that permeated the cells.

‘My arithmetic ability is still lacking.’

Lin Yao realized what he lacked after some trials. There was no way he could improve his arithmetic ability in a short time. Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Lin Yao stopped training and returned home. He picked up the manager contract from the table and looked through it carefully.

A few minutes later, Lin Yao, who had a basic understanding of the contract, activated his accelerated thinking to search for any traps in the contract.

After a few seconds of a thinking storm, he still did not find any traps in the contract. However, Lin Yao still felt uneasy. Like he had said yesterday, he decided to consult an established law firm.

An hour later, Lin Yao, who walked out of the law firm, had already signed the contract.

‘It’s good that there are no hidden clauses.’

Lin Yao had already considered Qin Ya a good working partner.

As he was sighing, there was a screech, and Lin Yao saw a familiar car approaching him.

Lin Yao did not stand on ceremony. He just opened the door to get in the car.

“You are always driving instead of running. You are indeed more like a businessman than a martial artist.”

In response, Qin Ya shot Lin Yao a baffled look.

“You are very direct when you speak.”

“What do you mean?”

“Nothing, the contract has been finalized.”

“I already signed it.”

“Then let’s go.”

There were two copies of the contract. After taking a look at her own copy, Qin Ya quickly started the car and sped toward the orphanage she had researched with Lin Yao by her side.

During the journey, she also quickly updated Lin Yao on the information she had found.

“The orphanage that we are heading to this time is quite special. It is an orphanage for the disabled. The children who are abandoned there are people with disabilities. Orphans are also divided into different levels. There are people who are willing to adopt ordinary children, but disabled children…”

Qin Ya did not finish her sentence. However, Lin Yao was sure that the situation at the orphanage must not be very good and no one paid attention to them.

Qin Ya drove very fast. Lin Yao arrived at the entrance of the orphanage 30 minutes later. There was already a truck full of supplies parked at the entrance right next to him.

“We are here. I have all the supplies you said you needed. You bought all of them with a loan. You can distribute the supplies yourself.”

“Thank you.”

After getting out of the car, Lin Yao told the driver of the truck to drive into the orphanage. Qin Ya was indeed very reliable and efficient. After entering the orphanage, Lin Yao realized that the children in the orphanage already knew that he would be there today. They’d even lined up with the help of the caregivers inside the orphanage.

However, the sight that welcomed Lin Yao made him feel depressed. Although the orphanage he had originally gone to had a sad atmosphere, the children there had always been happy. Here, everything was as lifeless as a cemetery.

“Sigh.”

Lin Yao sighed and walked toward the children, smiling at them.

“Come here, I have brought some things for you.”

Lin Yao’s features, which had been enhanced by the Light Adjustment, were indeed very attractive. He merely smiled at them, and his smile assured the nervous, scared children. The children, who felt dejected, even lightened up at the sight of Lin Yao.

Lin Yao did not pay much attention to this. He was busy distributing supplies, while Qin Ya next to him pushed up her spectacles, confirming her guess.

‘Sure enough, his features have a charming effect.’

The Spirit Energy Revival had made the world a dangerous place, but it had also made it possible to have a bountiful harvest. Since ordinary human beings had an abundance of supplies, the children here did not lack food and water. What they lacked was a form of spiritual support and comfort.

Therefore, the supplies that Qin Ya had helped Lin Yao choose were all toys. She had also been very careful to pick toys that were suitable for the children here. The blind children received music boxes, and those with injured legs received board games. She’d also prepared sweets, snacks, and comic books that all the children liked… In addition to the toys, Qin Ya had also hired some caregivers and teachers who could impart practical skills to the children.

When most of the supplies were distributed, Qin Ya brought the director over so that Lin Yao could check what was lacking and what facilities were in need of repair in the orphanage.

“We basically have all the facilities we need, but some are in need of maintenance.”

“I will help you with it.”

…

Two hours later, when they left this orphanage, countless children looked at Lin Yao with admiration, gratitude, and expectations in their eyes.

“Big brother, will you come here again?”

“It’s fine if you don’t bring anything with you so long as you come.”

“Woohoo… Big Brother, don’t leave us.”

The children’s sincerity could be seen through their reluctance to part with Lin Yao. However, it also made him feel sad to leave them.

“Be obedient and I’ll come often to visit you.”

Lin Yao left after comforting the children.

While he and the others were leaving, a middle-aged man holding a camera also got in another car and left. Lin Yao knew that it was the publicity team arranged by Qin Ya.

Lin Yao looked at the man but did not say anything. Qin Ya, who was driving, asked, “Are you unhappy?”

“No, I am not someone who stubbornly adheres to old ideas, nor am I a perfect, moral saint.”

Some people might believe that one should remain anonymous when doing good deeds and not get any rewards. All these people wanted was to give to society selflessly.

However, as far as Lin Yao was concerned, he only sought to do good deeds to get results. As for what those who did good deeds would get in the process, he did not care at all. In fact, Lin Yao hoped that those who did good deeds would get benefits, only so they would continue to do good deeds.

Lin Yao stopped thinking about that and told Qin Ya, “How much did it cost this time?”

“120,000 yuan, including the money needed to repair the old facilities.”

“That’s less than I thought.”

“This is because we only came here once. According to your plan, we will come at least once a month, and we will need tens of thousands of yuan every time we are here. We also have to pay for the salaries of the caregivers and teachers. In the long run, this will be a big amount.”

Lin Yao closed his eyes and sank into his consciousness. After a few moments, he opened his eyes.

“I didn’t suffer a loss.”

Indeed, Lin Yao had not suffered a loss. He had spent a lot of money this time, but after spending the money, he’d also gotten what he wanted.

[Existing Energy: 5,500 grams]

Before coming here, Lin Yao had collected 4,500 grams of green energy. Those energy points were the remaining energy he had after evolving the angel tree and calculating the energy points he had gained from the orphanage he had gone to a few days ago.

Although Lin Yao had been very busy back then, he’d only gained a few dozen points a day. Instead, he had gained 1,000 points within two hours today. Indeed, this was an example of money talking.

Of course, that did not mean that by spending 100,000 yuan, he would get 1,000 grams of energy. Before coming to the orphanage, Qin Ya had already collected various information on the orphanage for Lin Yao. She had bought most of the supplies for him and had even found out what every child desired the most. This was why Lin Yao had been able to fully utilize every cent he had spent to maximize efficiency.

In the process, the children were truly happy as well.

However, Lin Yao also had some regrets.

‘It’s a pity that we addressed most of the needs of the orphanage. If we sent more things to the orphanage, it would be redundant, and I would definitely receive very few energy points. I can only go to the orphanage again in one month.’

It was naturally impossible to latch on to one money-making opportunity. However, he wondered if it was fortunate or unfortunate that in this era, when dangers lurked everywhere, there were many more orphanages than Lin Yao could imagine.

Therefore, after they left the orphanage, Qin Ya did not stop. Instead, she drove Lin Yao to the next location right away.

“Get to work now. You will be very busy today. There are about ten venues to go to.”

“Don’t worry, I’m full of enthusiasm.”
