Unfortunately, physically...

He feels a bit of pain in his waist and the inner side of his left thigh, a feeling that if it continues, it could be deadly spontaneously emerges.

After all, he is no longer 25 or 26 years old.

Li Qing is quite aware of his bodily changes, and he is relieved that as long as he can illuminate this white ball composed of 365 white lines, like a beacon hanging in his mind, then he is considered to have reached the entry level.

In recent days, he has only felt his mind clear, his learning speed considerably fast, many things he couldn't understand before now become clear to him with a bit of thought, and he can even draw inferences from one case and deduce more things. If he puts his mind to remembering certain things, he can remember them thoroughly just after a quick look one or two times.

The changes brought by practicing the Basic Meditation Technique make him quite excited.

"Little Li, can you help me check the computer? Recently, a lot of small ads keep popping up."

A slightly aged voice gently echoed near his ear, and Li Qing suddenly returned to his senses, looking up.

Zhang Li, the chairman of this biological company, can be said to be an old scholar, with quite in-depth research in the field of biology. Originally, he was a professor at Modu University, and later, due to insufficient funding from above, he simply founded a company himself, relying on over ten biological patent technologies, making this company grow larger and larger.

Although it hasn't gone public, Li Qing, who manages the internal system of the enterprise, knows that just the monthly cash flow and reserve funds, the company's capital is over three hundred million, even reaching a peak of one billion.

Extremely wealthy yet spending money like water.

The materials consumed by many research projects are quite astonishingly expensive, and many times some rare materials only weigh a pound or two, yet cost tens of millions.

"Alright, Professor, I'll be right there."

Zhang Li doesn't like people calling him chairman; he's particularly fond of the title Professor.

Probably it's the final persistence of an old scholar going entrepreneurial.

Following Zhang Li, who walked leisurely with his hands behind him, into the chairman's office, ignoring the antique-looking desks and chairs, Li Qing walked straight to the computer and skillfully began to clean some junk programs.

This old scholar has no hobbies, just likes to watch some little-known information...

Such as Ultraman, this old scholar quite likes to watch it, even has a Gaia Transformation Device placed in his drawer...

It's human nature, Li Qing totally understands. As a child, he also particularly liked Ultraman, until he found out no matter what, he couldn't turn into light, he had to reluctantly give up and scattered these unrealistic dreams.

Previously, his dreams were definitely not to save money to buy a house or a car.

Life has already smoothed his edges, but now, with the magic academy admission letter and the glowing ball meditated in his head, his dormant passion begins to slowly revive.

"Little Li, I noticed you've been a bit unrestrained lately, you need to pay attention to your health. Once a person turns thirty, you must exercise."

Zhang Li stood beside Li Qing and said softly.

Li Qing returned to his senses, somewhat embarrassed, saying, "I understand, Professor Zhang, I will pay attention in the future."

"Hmm, also, although I know everyone in the company should help each other, and you are the one who procured this computer, this computer cannot turn into your computer!"

"Huh?" Li Qing was stunned for a moment, not reacting.

Zhang Li saw this and pointed to the four characters below the computer icon on the screen.

'My Computer'

Zhang Li was somewhat displeased saying, "Although computers are upgraded frequently and often require resource allocation, currently, I am the user."

Li Qing instantly understood and silently changed 'My Computer' into 'Professor Zhang's Computer.'

"Professor Zhang, does it work like this?"

Zhang Li adjusted his reading glasses, quickly relaxed his brows, and said contentedly, "That's better."

Li Qing: "..."

Although Zhang Li is indeed a giant in the field of biotechnology, this old scholar has come all the way from the abacus era, possessing high achievements in biology but can only be considered an outsider in terms of computer exposure.

It's not that he doesn't understand the convenience of computers. On the underside of this building on the second level is a mega-compute center worth seven billion built under his leadership, which Li Qing has the privilege to participate in due to his job responsibilities. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

These are all constructed under Zhang Li's supervision.

It's just that he isn't very good at using it, since research never is a solo endeavor, but he clearly knows how much convenience computers bring to research.

Just the monthly electricity bill for the mega-compute center exceeds three million, but the profit is remarkable nonetheless. Many university research projects or other enterprise research borrow it, accounting for fees each month still making a profit.

It's terrifying!

After leaving the chairman's office, Li Qing excitedly returned to his office, taking out the magic scroll of the admission letter and continued pondering the knowledge content within Magic Origin.

Magic is divided into two major branches, one being Western magic and the other Eastern magic. The origins of both are different, thus leading to divergent usage methods, but the end goal is the same.

It's all about becoming a God or Immortal.

But this is too distant for Li Qing, even too mythical and legendary for the era.

Then, as the book words switch, magic mainly employs spells, gestures, internal circulation, and magic arrays as the primary methods of casting. But at its core, it continues to be the consciousness linking the body.

What is magic, from a broader sense, all phenomena violating normal causality can be called magic, not strictly speaking the fireball or ice arrow techniques seen in traditional novels.

Magic encompasses these but is not distinctly divided by attributes, instead unified under Shaping Magic.

Through gestures, spells, and the cooperation of internal magic power, the energy particles in the air are arranged systematically, thereby actualizing tangible attacks.

These are founded on scientific evidence researched by the Magic Research Institute at the Gray Magic Academy.

But often mages are reluctant to engage in such intricate sequence operations and prefer an unordered causality, a kind that is reasonless in principle.

For instance, Transformation Technique.

Turning a cat into a human, or transforming a person into any kind of animal.

The conversion of these factors is entirely unreasonable and fundamentally impossible.

...

...

Two days quickly pass. Regarding magic, a seemingly miraculous existence, Li Qing is completely immersed in this magical knowledge.

Li Qing dares swear that if he could muster this sort of effort for studying while attending school, he could have considered attending either Peking University or Qinghua back then.
