I Have A Computer in my Brain - Chapter 40

 Lin Yun coughed dryly and replied calmly, “It’s not that I’m afraid. The wolves’ meat is fresh only if it’s eaten immediately after they are killed. If I kill them now, you won’t be able to eat fresh wolf meat later.”

 Xiao Leng suddenly looked touched. She said, “Big Brother is so nice! Big Brother has been carrying me and running without panting. It turns out that he’s running with the pack of wolves for exercise.”

 Exercise? Running at maximum speed without a change in expression or heartbeat was actually an advantage of being digital.

 Lin Yun sighed inwardly. She was indeed just a little girl, easy to fool. He suddenly had an idea and said, “Since you mentioned Planet Raider, Big Brother will test you. Do you know what a Planet Refiner is?”

 Xiao Leng tilted her little head and replied softly, “Of course I know. My aunt once told me that if a warrior’s Spiritual Strength exceeds Level 10, he will undergo a qualitative change and form a consciousness. At this time, they become Spiritual Masters. The very talented Spiritual Masters are able to perceive the essence of the stars and use the power of the stars to temper the body. They are called Planet Refiners.”

 Lin Yun suddenly realized one could only become a Planet Refiner after becoming a Spiritual Master. No wonder there was a saying that a planet might have ten Spirit Masters, but there might not be even one Planet Refiner on ten planets. Using the power of the stars to temper the body? It was horrifying just to think of such a thing.

 “What’s the difference between a Planet Master Refiner and a Planet Raider? I bet you don’t know.” Lin Yun’s expression was devious.

 Xiao Leng smiled triumphantly and quickly replied, “Of course I know. Aunt said that Planet Master Refiner and Planet Raider are two cultivation systems of the Human and Demon Planet Refiner. The Planet Refiner refines a planet in two ways. One is to align oneself with the planet with Spiritual Perception and syncing their pulses. This is the way of the Planet Master Refiner. The other is to control the planet through Spiritual Assimilation and forcibly merge the pulsation of the planet with oneself. This is the way of the Planet Raider.”

 Align with the planet? Control the planet?

 Lin Yun was shocked by the cultivation system of the Planet Refiner.

 Planet Refiner actually advanced their training using stars!

 How huge was a planet? Take Earth, where Lin Yun lived, for example. Its radius was more than 6,300 kilometers and its mass was about 6 times 10 to the power of 21 tonnes! As far as Lin Yun was aware, Earth was just a very small and ordinary planet in the Human Alliance. If you were to compare it with a medium-sized planet inhabited by humans, it was like comparing a sesame seed to a sports field!

 Regardless of whether it was Spiritual Perception or Spiritual Assimilation, one’s Spirit Strength must be able to withstand the pulse of the immense planet. Without a strong Spirit and a specific method, it would be like a water droplet getting close to the sea. The person’s Spirit would quickly become a part of the planet and he would die!

 Xiao Leng saw that Lin Yun was stunned and asked curiously, “Brother, am I not right?”

 Lin Yun collected himself, then smiled and said, “You answered very correctly, but you didn’t mention the strength level of the Planet Master Refiner and Planet Raider.”

 Xiao Leng snorted, blinked, and said with disappointment, “I don’t know much. Both the Planet Master Refiner and the Planet Raider seem to gain power levels by the number of stars they refine. For example, a Level 3 Planet Master Refiner may be able to refine 10 planets, and a Level 3 Planet Raider will be able to control one planet. I don’t know the details. Big Brother, can you tell me?”

 It was based on the number of planets one could refine? If a Level 3 Planet Master Refiner could refine 10 planets, how much power would he have?

 Lin Yun nodded, as if deep in thought. He noticed Xiao Leng’s curious eyes, smiled, and said, “You don’t need this knowledge now. I won’t tell you about it now in case you overreach yourself. When you become more powerful, ask your aunt.”

 At this time, the giant wolves gradually dispersed after realizing that they could not catch up with Lin Yun. Lin Yun looked around and found himself in a strange area.

 The trees were dense here, and the big trees were more a hundred meters tall. They rose into the clouds like towering chimneys. Lin Yun looked up and saw lush foliage, but he was unable to get a glimpse of the sky.

 The light had dimmed and Lin Yun guessed that it was nighttime now. The red light in Xiao Leng’s eyes shone and she looked around curiously. It was as if her vision was completely unaffected by the amount of light present.

 “Roar!”

 The roar of a wild beast was heard and Lin Yun’s heart clenched. Nighttime was when the wild beasts hunted for food.

 “Xiao Leng, what Master wants to teach you next is how to use wisdom to defeat powerful enemies.”

 Lin Yun appeared very earnest when faced with the naive Xiao Leng. Looking at the way Xiao Leng watched him expectantly, he immediately felt immense satisfaction. Children of this age tended to worship heroes.

 Lin Yun took two shoves from his spatial wristwatch and handed one to Xiao Leng. Then, he said, “Now, let’s dig a big hole.”

 As he said that, he started digging into the ground with Xiao Leng. It was just a simple act of digging, but Xiao Leng attacked it with gusto. In her 6-year-old eyes, this was obviously a particularly fun game.

 With their hard work, a large pit a few meters deep soon appeared in front of them. Lin Yun took out several daggers from his space watch and inserted them upside down at the bottom of the pit. Then, he found some dead branches and leaves and covered the top of the pit with them. A simple trap was thus successfully constructed.

 Xiao Leng watched Lin Yun make the trap with her big red eyes without blinking. Lin Yun felt that the little girl’s eyes were full of worship.

 “Next, I will demonstrate the way to use this trap.”

 As Lin Yun spoke, he took a rabbit corpse from the spatial wristwatch. He made a cut in the rabbit’s body with a knife to let the smell of blood escape into the air. Then, he gently put the body on the trap.

 With her eyes smiling, Xiao Leng cried, “Big Brother, you’re so smart. How did you come up with this?”

 Lin Yun put his index finger to his mouth, making a “shh” gesture. But he immediately remembered that he was still wearing a mask. So, he said to Xiao Leng gently, “We will hide nearby and stay silent.”

 Xiao Leng covered her mouth tightly with both hands and nodded vigorously.

 Lin Yun picked up Xiao Leng and slowly climbed up a tree. They sat on a leafy branch and held their breath. Both of them seemed to blend into the darkness.

 Before long, a leopard came over. The leopard was as big as a car with yellow markings all over and a pair of green eyes which were like two big green lanterns. There was a fleshy pad at the bottom of its paws and it walked gently, slowly approaching the body of the white rabbit.

 Xiao Leng covered her mouth with both hands, holding her breath as she looked at the leopard without moving.

 The leopard looked around and seemed to detect no danger. So, it slowly approached the little rabbit. When it was a few meters in front of the rabbit, it suddenly pounced on it.

 “Wow!”

 The dead branches and leaves could not bear the weight of the leopard. It was caught off guard and quickly fell into the trap. Its belly was injured by the daggers. Caught in a dire predicament, it struggled desperately. It looked like it would soon jump out of the trap.

 At this moment, Lin Yun leaped from the tree. With the added momentum from the jump, the long sword in his hand pierced the leopard’s neck with great force and nailed it to the ground.

 “Killed the leopard. Gained 10 EXP. You’ve gained 5 EXP, and Xiao Leng gained 5 EXP.”

 Xiao Leng quickly climbed down from the tree and rushed to the trap. Looking at the dead leopard in the trap, she shouted happily, “Big Brother, this trap works. It’s great!”

 Lin Yun pulled out his long sword and put the leopard’s body into his space watch. He smiled and said, “Restore everything the way it was. You’ll be in charge of killing the next prey.”

 Xiao Leng’s eyes glowed with a red light. There was no way to conceal the anticipation and excitement in them. She quickly fixed the trap and put the rabbit’s body on it again. She made a “shh” gesture at Lin Yun and climbed onto the tree.

 Just a while later, a wild boar came over. As soon as the wild boar saw the rabbit’s body, it ran towards it. Immediately, it fell into the trap.

 “Stupid boar, become my prey!”

 Xiao Leng screamed proudly, jumped from high in the tree, and onto the wild boar’s back. She clasped the sharp dagger tightly in her hands and stabbed it fiercely into the wild boar’s neck.

 The wild boar struggled, but Xiao Leng held onto its neck fiercely with her left hand and continued stabbing it with the dagger in her right hand. The wild boar’s blood splashed on Xiao Leng’s face, giving her little face a strange aura.

 After a while, the wild boar lay on the ground, unmoving.

 “Killed the wild boar. Gained 8 EXP. You’ve gained 4 EXP, and Xiao Leng gained 4 EXP.”

 Lin Yun climbed down from the tree. He smiled and said, “Xiao Leng, you’re awesome!”

 However, Xiao Leng was lying on the wild boar, motionless.

 What happened?

 Lin Yun ran over quickly to take a look. Then, he suddenly smiled.
