I'll Add Points To All Things

Chapter 896: A Crisis

Su Yang was taken aback. “Has anything happened to the people or living beings in Hawaii?”

Little Deeny quickly said, “Yes. The humans haven’t changed much, but all the living living beings are growing at a crazy rate, mutating even.

“I saw a sea turtle grow from one meter long to five meters long. Its entire shell began to bulge up like a mountain even.

“I also saw some trees start to mutate. For example, some of the most commonly seen coconut trees in Hawaii swelled up twice, but the coconuts on top of them shrank to the size of an egg. Aside from that, the coniferous timber tree that was originally green has now turned bright yellow.

After listening to Little Deeny’s explanation, Su Yang rubbed his temples. He could feel that as the system leveled up, the number of magical sights that he would attract would increase. ‘From a certain perspective, this isn’t a good thing.

‘After all, I’m different from before and am no longer an ordinary person. As a world-class tycoon, there are too many people watching over my every move. If someone discovers any abnormality in me, it could lead to big trouble.

‘So... Should I go to the North Pole to add points in the future?

‘Maybe, if that’s the case, I won’t draw attention to myself that easily...’

Putting that thought aside for the time being, Su Yang continued to ask Little Deeny, “Then, is there a huge commotion in Hawaii?”

Little Deeny shook his head. “No, Master.”

Su Yang was shocked. “No? Why? There are so many changes happening at the moment, but none of them have caused so much as a commotion?”

Little Deeny deliberated for a long time before saying, “I... Don’t really understand either. Anyway, it’s just some strange reason, which I’ll get Spirit Building to explain to you.”

Su Yang hummed in acknowledgment. Then, he waited for the Spiritual Ability Research Expert, Spirit Building, to give him an answer.

After hearing Spirit Building’s preliminary report, Su Yang roughly understood what had happened.

It turned out that the blue light emitted that time was different from the green and orange light from before. The purity of its energy was higher, but because it had spread, the living beings within this range were less affected than the previous two times.

This led to the incident where although these living beings had mutated, they were... Mutated in a higher dimension.

Previously, Spirit Building had made a preliminary guess. spiritual energy came from a higher dimension that did not actually belong to that world. Thus, the function it had in Su Yang’s world was just a high-altitude projection.

For example, the projection of a three-dimensional cube in a two-dimensional space was a square.

It was the same for the changes in these living beings. They had mutated in a higher dimension, but due to the lack of spiritual energy, it was not projected to others in the world.

As a result, in the eyes of those with spiritual energy (those who had entered the higher dimensions), these living beings had changed, but in the eyes of those in the lower dimensions (those in the real world), they did not change.

After all, people at the low energy level did not have organs that could observe spiritual energy.

This was similar to how human eyes could only see the light of 400 to 700 nanometer waves. The light beyond this range did exist in the natural world, but humans did not have organs that could “see” this, so it was invisible to them.

This is similar to viruses and bacteria that have been around humans since time immemorial, on the surface and in the body. However, humans lack the organs (not enough precision) to observe them, so they could not be seen.

Only when humans invented the “eyes” that could observe these things did they realize how “colorful” the world was.

At that moment, an indescribable fear arose in Su Yang’s heart. ‘Now that I think about it carefully, these living beings that have mutated because of their spiritual energy are very similar to viruses that could not be observed in the past.

‘If I’m from the ancient past, perhaps I would never have been able to imagine that there were so many strange things living inside my body, on my body, and around me.

‘And now, the people of Hawaii might never be able to imagine the living beings that lived around them, the ones that have mutated long ago in higher dimensions, even becoming terrifying monsters.’

Su Yang rubbed his temples again and asked, “Didn’t the humans from Hawaii also get exposed to the blue light this time? Why didn’t they mutate?”

Spirit Building said weakly, “How would I know...

“I’m guessing that it’s because the evolution of humans is too complicated. If they were to want to mutate, they would need to be exposed to a huge amount of spiritual energy, which was not enough based on this time’s blue light emitted, so it wasn’t able to help humans much.

“However, even so, their physical condition should have improved greatly, and they should be stronger than normal humans.”

When Su Yang heard Spirit Building’s words, he was a little upset. If he had known that such a good thing would happen, he would have added more points in his own country. At least, he would not have allowed the people from other countries to receive the benefits.

‘On second thought, if I added a point in China, I might have been caught by the smart netizens and busybody housewives. After all, they’re even better than reporters themselves.

‘In comparison, foreigners are much easier to fool.

‘Furthermore, Hawaii is vast and sparsely populated, and most of the places around it are seas. So, there aren’t that many people, and the impact is much smaller.’

At that thought, Su Yang was no longer upset.

‘Worst case scenario, I could ask King Latin and the Clown Sea Serpent to recruit a group of their subordinates in Hawaii. This way, I wouldn’t have to waste any of the spiritual energy I’ve accumulated.’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang asked again if Spirit Building’s spiritual energy would be discovered, and if the humans who got exposed to the “radiation” would evolve into organs that could see spiritual energy and special living beings.

Spirit Building’s reply was that the possibility of it happening within a short period of time was not high. After all, the blue light was water without roots. It had been emitted by Su Yang when he was adding points, and it was gradually dissipating at that moment. It would not stimulate these living beings to mutate further. Naturally, humans would not mutate again.

However, she felt that the anomaly here would definitely attract the attention of the scientists. After all, even if there were not many mutated living beings projected here due to the energy problem, there would definitely be some that slipped through the net. Just these mutated living beings would attract the interest of the scientific community.

Coupled with the fact that they had been baptized by spiritual energy, the air quality of Hawaii was much higher than the outside world. This made the humans who visited for a vacation and a tour feel somewhat aware of what was happening.

Therefore, Spirit Building’s final judgment might not be found within a short period of time, but the anomaly would definitely be discovered.

Su Yang was already very satisfied with this situation. After all, it was a blessing in disguise.

After checking the effects of the latest point added, Su Yang strolled back to the beach.

The little monsters were not on the beach. After confirming that the latest point added did not affect the virtual space, they all returned. Even the things that they had moved out earlier were moved back inside as well.

However, although they were not there, Zhao Licheng was.

Seeing that Su Yang had returned, Zhao Licheng hurried over to Su Yang’s side and said, “Mr. Su, I heard from Ms. Deeny that something happened here, so I hurried over.”

In order to be safe, the secondary little monsters did not know about the existence of the system. Hence, neither the Clown Sea Serpent nor Zhao Licheng knew where Su Yang’s various magical abilities came from. They only thought that he was born with them. Hence, Su Yang did not inform them about the additional point that he had given the system.

He was able to get the news because Little Deeny had discovered that something had happened. In order to prevent himself from not being able to handle it, the matter had spread to an irreversible extent, so he informed Zhao Licheng.

Now that the crisis was resolved, Su Yang did not say much. He waved his hand and said, “It’s been resolved.”

Zhao Licheng nodded and said, “Mr. Su, let me report to you about the situation in Korea.”

Su Yang nodded as he brought Zhao Licheng to a reef by the sea and sat down.

“Go ahead, what’s the current situation?”

Zhao Licheng said, “Ever since we started dealing with Hyundai, their stock prices have fallen by 16%. However, because their corporation is too big, the loss in their automobile industry has not affected them too much.

“The reason why it dropped by 16% was because Wei Lin took advantage of it.

“Of course, this might also have something to do with the other party’s timely reaction. The other party had a lot of money, and they could use the company’s cash. When the share price fell, they immediately started to buy back, making our suppression useless.”

Su Yang nodded. “What about the other corporations?”

Zhao Licheng shook his head as well. “It’s not optimistic either. These tycoons have been ruling over a country for so long, so they’re not easy to deal with. Many of our actions and probing have been taken by force. Moreover, they’ve started to establish a connection with each other. It seems like they’re planning to work together to deal with us.

“Right now, we’re at an impasse.”

Su Yang nodded silently again.

When the two talked about this, their hearts felt heavy. Obviously, this was different from their initial plan.

When they entered Korea, Su Yang, Zhao Licheng, the Clown Sea Serpent, and Little Deeny had made a detailed plan. They initially thought that they would be able to achieve victory like Japan.

However, the situation in Korea was different from Japan. Su Yang was also different from when he was unknown. The enemy was powerful and the country was united. Hence, they were wary of Su Yang. This made it difficult for them to carry out their plan.

It was possible to break the stalemate slowly with water grinding, but the problem was that the elections were in full swing. If they could not take down Korea in a short time, things would be difficult when that madman from America came on stage.

‘The madman is a conservative person. For the sake of the country, he will definitely target me after discovering the technologies I possess.’

At the thought of this, Su Yang’s heart sank.

Just as the two were talking about Korea, a cell phone lying on the beach lit up. A moment later, Little Deeny appeared before them, wearing a JK outfit.

Su Yang looked at her and asked, “Have you settled everything in Hawaii?”

Little Deeny nodded. “Yes, Master.”

Then she added, “But, I suggest you watch this video. It’s related to Korea.”

“Korea?” Su Yang mumbled as he took the glass phone from Little Deeny.

Su Yang took the glass phone and saw a video of Mr. Yoon.

In the video, Mr. Yoon was chatting with someone.

“Su Yang has obviously underestimated the capabilities of Samsung and Hyundai.

“If they were that easy to deal with, we would have succeeded long ago.”

Another person nodded and said, “Meanwhile, Jiadian Group isn’t our ally as well. They’re no different from Samsung and Hyundai, a tycoon.”

Mr. Yoon nodded slightly. “Yes.

“So, when they looked for me, I was not that interested. After all, even if I worked with them and destroyed Samsung, it would not help our country. They would only replace Samsung’s status.

“To the country, be it Samsung or Jiadian Group, they are all tycoons that bring disaster to the country and its people.

“Plus...” Mr. Yoon added, “Jiadian Group is another country’s tycoon.”

The other man smiled. “Indeed. Even though Samsung is technically a company from another country, the person manning the front is still from our country.

“Compared to that, Jiadian Group is indeed not as good as Samsung.”

Mr. Yoon nodded, then lit a cigarette with “click” before he took a deep drag. “Let’s get them to fight each other first while we stay out of it. After one of them gets defeated, we’ll show up and take them out.”

The video stopped there.

Little Deeny raised her head and looked at Su Yang, waiting for his opinion.

Su Yang did not look good. He passed the glass phone to Zhao Licheng.

Zhao Licheng took the glass phone and finished watching the video with a frown.

Su Yang took a look at the time. ‘There’s still more than 70 hours before the system’s point is done being added. For safety’s sake, I shouldn’t return to the real world to deal with any related matters during this period of time.’ Hence, he stretched his back and dispelled the bad mood brought by the bad news. Then, he waved to Little Deeny and Zhao Licheng and decided to have a meeting to investigate this matter.

Returning to the virtual space, the Clown Sea Serpent that had been notified had also arrived. Several important monsters had gathered to discuss this matter.

In the meeting, a few of them reached a consensus: Korea’s national situation was indeed different from other countries. Even though he was being bullied by his own country’s tycoons, his sense of national responsibility still ranked first.

This was indeed the country where people donated gold to help the corporations survive the financial crisis.

It was just that this quality that should have been “praised” was not so friendly when it came to enemies like Su Yang.

Enemies were not to be underestimated to begin with. In the end, even his enemies would not stand on his side, putting Su Yang in a difficult situation.

The few of them discussed for a while, but none of them had any good ideas, so they could only leave it at that for the moment.

After the meeting ended, Su Yang went to the third floor and looked at the beautiful scenery on Socot Island as his thoughts wandered.

‘Now that I’m at an impasse with Korea, can I find some other way to break through?

‘Such as... The system that’s receiving its point at the moment?’
