Scholar's Advanced Technological System - Chapter 55
Chapter 55: Please Do Not Use The System’s Resources On Retarded Questions
[Mission completion details is as follows: Successful completion of mission (30/30). Final evaluation of mission: none (reward mission has no evaluation)]
[Mission reward: 2000 experience points toward any subjects of your choosing (double reward). Unlocked technology branch: artificial intelligence level 0]
2000 experience points!
Lu Zhou took a deep breath and thought about it. Without any hesitation, he assigned 1000 experience points to the engineering branch.
The upgrade requirements for information science and mathematics were both 10,000. It would be useless to put the experience points toward them. Among the other major subjects, engineering was the most widely used.
From software engineering to civil engineering, from a nanochip to a national project, this all could be included in the broad scope of engineering. Although when compared with other theory based subjects, engineering had to rely on the theory from the other subjects, it was also the most practical.
Furthermore, given that the mathematical modeling competition was about to begin, upgrading the engineering level was undoubtedly the best choice.
As for the remaining 1000 experience points, Lu Zhou threw it all into physics.
He did not have any special reason for that. It was purely because his physics class was about to start this semester.
Confirm selection!
White lights flickered and a line of text appeared on the semi-transparent information screen.
[Note: Engineering level 0 -> level 1, Physics level 0 -> level 1]
Lu Zhou saw this line of text and could not wait to open his characteristic panel to see his statistics.

Like last time, he leveled up two subjects at once!
Lu Zhou looked at his characteristic panel and was very happy.
Now the only zeros left were biochemistry, materials science, and energy science. In the short term, he probably had no use for these subjects, and so, it would not be too late to upgrade them when there were appropriate missions.
Now the first priority was to understand what the unlocked technology branch was about!
Lu Zhou looked at the semi-transparent information screen before clearing his throat and ordered.
“System, upgrade technology branch; artificial intelligence!”
[Upgrade technology branch “artificial intelligence” to level 1 requires 100 general points. Confirm selection?]
“Confirm!”
Lu Zhou answered without any hesitation.
The white light flashed slightly and soon, his general points were deducted by 100. He had 675 left.
In the technology branch column, the level of artificial intelligence was raised from level 0 to level 1 (0/1000).
It was similar to raising core subjects and nothing special happened.
Lu Zhou thought that there would be a “huge flow of information into the brain”, followed by a “sudden realization”. However, it seemed that his brain was not filled with the knowledge that was unheard of.
A USB icon was suspended on top of the semi-transparent information screen.
Lu Zhou walked over and looked at the line of text next to the icon.
[Artificial intelligence program – untitled (level 1) (not deployed)]
[Description: The program will be automatically copied onto the device once the USB is inserted. “Untitled” will be migrated to the electronic device, 1TB of storage space is required. The program can be improved by machine learning. The learning speed is determined by the computing power of the device and any external information provided. Meeting the upgrade requirements will automatically level up artificial intelligence. In addition, general points can be consumed for level up.]
Lu Zhou saw this description paragraph and thought seriously.
Although the description given by the system was hard to understand, it was easy to interpret with an analogy.
The so-called “untitled” artificial intelligence was equivalent to the system giving him an egg. He could incubate it to level 2, level 3 or even higher. At the same time, it could be used as research material or core codes.
Of course, artificial intelligence was also in the scope of information science. Therefore, he had to meet the information science pre-requisites in order to upgrade artificial intelligence with general points.
“I see, the so-called technology branch has an independent upgrade system,” said Lu Zhou as he recalled the instructions of the original system while rubbing his chin.
“What about the genetic technology branch that the system mentioned? The way to upgrade to crack the genetic code? Or to collect genetic samples? The ultimate goal… Is it to remove the telomere of the DNA? To achieve life outside of the body? Or to create epic creatures…”
It made no sense. He would have to figure it out after he unlocked the technology.
Right now, he was still young and so, he did not have to worry about aging.
“Now, I have to find a place to give this level 1 artificial intelligence a home. I definitely can’t use a cloud server or my second-hand laptop… I guess I need a new computer,” thought Lu Zhou.
Next up…
The exciting mission selection stage.
Lu Zhou took a deep breath and prayed as he reached out to the mission panel.
“Come on, give me a good mission!”
He had no idea what mission he would get.
As long as the mission isn’t too sh*tty!

Mission1: Health is everything
Description: Even though the user is lazy, the system still recommends him to exercise. Exercise with the goal of being the strongest man!
Requirements: Walk 50 kilometers, do 2000 squats, 2000 push-ups.
Reward: 1000 experience points of free distribution. 500 general points. One lucky draw ticket (95% garbage, 5% sample).
]
[
Mission 2: Reproduction is more important than scientific research
Description: Find a girlfriend immediately
Requirements: Female with the compatibility of 60 or more. Establish a relationship.
Reward: 2000 general points. Sample: Durable strengthening needle (5 hours active period, increase muscle cell development by 50%, metabolic rate increased by 100%).
]

Mission 3: Please do not use the system’s resources on retarded questions
Description: In a week, the National Mathematical Modeling Competition is going to begin. The lazy user will want to consume general points to solve retarded questions.
Requirements: Under the condition of not using the system for help, win the first prize from the National Mathematical Modeling Competition.
Reward: Determined by the discipline of the competition question (4000 total experience points). 500 general points. One lucky draw ticket (80% garbage, 10% samples, 5% blueprint)

The mission one is okay, what the hell is mission two?
Why would the system care about me being a loner?
Which means…
I only have one mission left to choose?
Lu Zhou was pissed off at the system as he sighed and picked mission three.
