Seated on the couch in the living room, David carried Eddie and placed him on his lap. Hans and Bersha were beaming with joy. They had never had such a pleasant time together as a family before.
“David, here’s a bottle of Level 2 Strengthening Potion. Consume it in the next two days, train hard, and do well on your college entrance examination!” Hans said as he took a small metal box out of his pocket and placed it in front of David.
David was taken aback. Although the name of the potion wasn’t that striking, all Strengthening Potions were something that would not be cheap at all.
Strengthening Potions had to be produced by experienced professional technicians of professional companies using special sophisticated tools. The raw material of Strengthening Potions was the strengthened meat of insects.
Basically, no one would use the strengthened meat of larvae or Class 1 bugs for the creation of Strengthening Potions since that would be a huge waste.
The Level 2 Strengthening Potion in front of David was the cheapest among all Strengthening Potions, but that was only relatively speaking.
Class 2 bugs were the main material of the Level 2 Strengthening Potions, and as long as the Class 2 Insects appeared on Planet Rocky, they would cause a catastrophe. It usually took several armorers working together and paying a huge price to kill them.
In fact, Class 2 bugs that appeared on Planet Rocky would usually be dealt with by battleships that were deployed to strike them with heavy weapons. Hence, that would result in minute amounts of materials. There would barely be any gains, not to mention strengthened meat.
Consequently, Level 2 Strengthening Potions were scarce items on Planet Rocky. Even if Hans had the identity of a statesman, it would still be difficult for him to obtain one.
“Father, you’d better use this Level 2 Strengthening Potion for yourself. I’ll try my best to get into a good university!” David refused with an excuse.
He did need the Level 2 Strengthening Potion, but he knew that Hans had gotten divorced without taking any assets with him. Although Bersha’s family was affluent, Hans wasn’t the type to seek help from them. Accordingly, Hans didn’t have a lot of money in his hands.
He probably spent everything he had on the potion.
“David, take it, I’m in the pink of health!” Hans said while laughing and waving his hand.
His laughter was followed by a violent cough.
“Are you alright?” David asked, feeling a little worried.
“It’s fine, it’s just an old ailment. Keep the Strengthening Potion well. I can’t use the Level 2 Strengthening Potion for my body!” Hans exclaimed after hearing the concerned tone in David’s voice. The smile on his face did not disappear, but he stopped coughing.
He scanned the living room with a look of nostalgia in his eyes. Ever since his relationship with David worsened, he rarely visited him at his residence.
“Take care of your health. I’ll accept this bottle of Level 2 Strengthening Potion!” David decided not to stand on ceremony any longer. He interacted with Hans in the same way that he used to in the past.
He also noticed his stepmother Bersha, who was a beautiful woman with a good upbringing, looking at him with care and affection.
However, after chatting for a while, little Eddie got a bit tired. He fell asleep in David’s arms.
“David, you should also be mindful not to train too hard. We’ll go back first!” Hans stood up then and took his leave with a smile.
“Father, Aunt Bersha, you can bring Eddie here to visit me often!” David said with a smile while handing Eddie over to Bersha.
After sending Hans and his family away, David looked at the metal box in his hand and carefully opened it to see that there was a bottle wrapped in a layer of foam material in the middle of the box.
He could feel his father’s love for him from the Level 2 Strengthening Potion.
He was not his predecessor. In this lonely world, he only had those family members. How could he continue being lonely?
He did not use the Level 2 Strengthening Potion immediately. He planned to use it after advancing in Bodywork. Only then could he better absorb the essence within, so as to improve his body.
In the following morning, David didn’t try to absorb the Knowledge Orb. Instead, he continuously practiced the eighteen movements of Bodywork.
Every training session gave him a new experience. He hoped that he could first increase the level of his Bodywork before fusing his body with the Knowledge Orbs. Only then could he advance greater.
Although the improvements on his body after training for more than a day weren’t reflected in the data panel, David could feel that he had progressed. Perhaps, if he was in school at the moment, he should be able to see the most detailed results of his improvement on the ergometer.
In the end, the data panel was convenient, but some of the slightest improvements that didn’t reach the level of effecting a change in the data were still not obvious.
David wanted to wait until nighttime to absorb the Knowledge Orb. He didn’t want to waste any of the Knowledge Orbs that he currently had.
However, before nighttime, his identity bracelet showed a request for a connection at two in the afternoon.
Looking at the identity bracelet, he saw that the name of the person who made the request was Officer Bob. After thinking about it, he finally remembered that the latter was the officer who was handling the matter at the bookstore yesterday.
“Officer Bob, hello!” He established the connection on the identity bracelet and opted for a video call. He looked at Officer Bob, whose face was displayed on the identity bracelet, and greeted him.
The identity bracelet could be used for both voice calls and video calls. Generally speaking, video calls will only be established between friends or when the caller was an official. The video call would only go through when the respondent agreed.
Officer Bob had requested for a video call, which showed that it was very formal. It also meant that their conversation would be recorded by the police system.
“David, if you’re free, please make a trip to the police station. There are compensations for you this time because you have sustained some injuries. You need to sign and collect it!” Officer Bob said with a smile.
“Officer Bob, the results of the compensation are released so soon?” David asked, feeling a little surprised.
When he heard Officer Bob say that, he wondered whether Officer Bob was trying to trick him to go there in a bid to harm him.
However, after hearing Officer Bob say that he wanted him to make a trip to the police station, he knew that it was impossible.
Due to the tragic accident that happened yesterday, panic broke out in Pelan City. The morning news revealed over a dozen drones patrolling the skies above Pelan City.
Pelan City was the safest place to be in, as no one would dare to stir trouble on the streets at least until the tension was eased.
“David, the pilot of the officer that crashed into the crowd is a wanted man, and the bounty on him will be paid to all the victims as compensation!” Officer Bob explained, still maintaining the smile on his face.
If it had been anyone else, Officer Bob wouldn’t have paid too much attention. However, after checking David’s background, he paid particular attention to him.
The Deputy Director of the Pelan City Law Department was not someone he could offend, even though he did not have full authority.
“Thank you, I’ll go there now!” David agreed and switched off his identity bracelet.
Although the danger outside was minimal, he decided to head there by car this time, as it would at least be much safer inside the vehicle. The journey would be faster as well.
He entered the garage through the side door of the living room. Although he remembered that there was a car in his home, it was his first time seeing it with his own eyes.
It was a car that was more than 30 years old. However, on the surface, it didn’t seem to be more than 30 years old.
That had to do with the urban environment that the car was used in. However, most importantly it was the metal that was used to build the car, which had a Class 1 bug shell component to it.
The car was named Glaston III, which was an older version of cars produced by the automobile brand, Glaston. It was the best brand in Planet Rocky, and David’s mother had purchased it second-hand at a high price.
David’s mother decided to purchase the Glaston III car because she was extremely insecure, which was also the reason she had separated from his father, Hans.
In fact, David’s mother would not have been able to purchase a brand new Glaston car even if she had been ten times richer.
David’s predecessor was very displeased with the Glaston III because its design had long gone out of style.
However, at this moment, David was extremely satisfied because of the safety offered by Glaston III. Cars produced by Glaston were undoubtedly safe, and the quality would be the same regardless of which generation.
Although the shell of a Class 1 bug couldn’t compare to its teeth and claw tips, it was tougher than the vast majority of metals in terms of sturdiness and durability.
A driver seated in a vehicle made of metals fused with such materials would not be harmed easily unless the opponent was an armorer, or he used heavy weapons.
