It's five o'clock in the morning, and the sky has just turned white and misty.
The harsh sound of whipping resounded through the sky, and the flying shadows made it difficult to see clearly.
"It's strange. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be so laborious after the transformation."
Cynthia looked at the panting Wen Jiu with a puzzled look on her face. He had only been whipped for a dozen times before his face turned pale and he was sweating like rain.
Although she was not solely responsible for the transformation of this golden whip, the transformation was completed with her guidance and help. Logically speaking, it should be easier to use than before.
But the current situation was not what she expected. Every time Wen Jiu whipped out his whip, he would become weaker. It seemed as if this golden whip was harder to control than before, even more difficult to control than the original golden whip. Even more difficult to do.
"I think... it's not... it's not a problem with the whip." Wen Jiu bent over and breathed heavily, "Have you forgotten what you said before? No one has found the correct way to use the golden whip yet. "
"Well, how should I put it," Cynthia smiled coquettishly, "You are also someone who has taken combat classes in the academy. You should know that many weapons require spiritual power, right?"
She didn't need to say anything more about this, Wen Jiu naturally knew it.
The weapons of the Federation are roughly divided into ten levels. The higher the level, the more mental power is required to use the weapons. The use of weapons of fifth level and above almost all requires mental support.
As for the weapons below level five, there is nothing that requires mental energy. Even ordinary people with extremely low mental energy and no special powers can use them.
Mental power is different from supernatural powers. Mental power is an innate ability of everyone in the Federation. However, the level of mental power is innate and cannot be improved through later training like supernatural powers.
At most, one can become more proficient in the use of mental power through training, but it is almost impossible to change from a person with low mental power to a person with high mental power.
This is also the reason why federal military district commanders are so rare. After all, the level of mental power is determined by God.
However, the golden whip that Wen Jiu picked up was an exception. It was almost as tattered when it was picked up. It could not be regarded as a normal fifth-level weapon at all, but at most it could be regarded as an ordinary second-level weapon.
Therefore, the trafficker who wanted to kidnap Wen Jiu was able to use it easily.
"I know, but don't you think using the golden whip consumes too much mental energy?"
Wen calmed down for a long time before standing up straight again. She always felt that there was something wrong with the use of the golden whip.
Because each swing of the whip consumes too much mental energy. After ten or so lashes, she felt that her mental energy was almost drained.
Cynthia shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly, "I said that the golden whip is a defective product, and it is quite normal for this to happen."
"The golden whip was refined by some so-called masters in the Federation based on the remaining data on the god-killing whip from history. On the surface, it was intended to create a former artifact to prove that gods can be artificially created."
"Actually, to put it bluntly, they just wanted to make some money with the gimmick of the God-killing Whip. You know, when the Golden Whip was put on the market at that time, the sales were very popular because of the speed battle."
As for the subsequent development, she had already talked about it once, and she was too lazy to repeat it at this time.
Seeing that Wen Jiu wanted to continue practicing, she couldn't help but raise her voice and said, "It's already five in the morning. If you don't want to sleep, you have to let me sleep, right?"
"Ah? Is it already five o'clock?" Wen Jiu didn't realize that time passed so fast. She thought it was only two or three in the morning.
Mainly because Cynthia's shop is located on the underground floor and cannot observe the sky outside. And she had been immersed in the process of modifying the weapon, and she had no time to look at the display on the electronic clock.
She didn't expect that this immersive weapon transformation would last until five in the morning, but she felt that she was not sleepy at all at this time, and could even practice using the golden whip for a few more hours.
But just because she can endure it doesn't mean that Cynthia can endure it. The other party has been struggling with her all night. If she doesn't know better and leaves, that would be too much.
So she politely expressed her gratitude to Cynthia and said that she would make some desserts and send them to express her gratitude later.
Because she felt that Cynthia liked eating lollipops, so she must also like eating desserts.
"Let's forget about the dessert you made." Cynthia felt sick when she thought of the bowl of dark unknown substance. She remembered that Qiao Jiwan said that the fairy grass was made by Wen Jiu.
She felt that she could tell from the bowl of unknown things that the child in front of her definitely didn't know how to make desserts. She didn't want to receive some weird and dark dishes.
Wen Jiu was a little confused when she heard this. This was the first time she was refused dessert.
Did she think wrong? Cynthia doesn't actually like desserts?
"If you really want to thank me, why not clear the debt I owe to Yu Ruman."
Cynthia looked at Wen Jiu with a smile. She owed Yu Ruman a huge favor because of something before.
If it weren't for this favor and her good relationship with Yu Ruman, she wouldn't have agreed to teach Wen Jiu how to modify weapons.
The skill of weapon refining is the job of the weapon refining master. How can it be taught to outsiders casually?
What's more, she is a rare sixth-level weapon refiner on Planet 3047. She is the one who guides Wen Jiu to learn weapon refinement for free, which is really a blessing for the other party.
"That's not okay. That's between you and Teacher Yu." Wen Jiu is a man who can handle things clearly.
She would not take advantage of Yu Ruman without her knowledge just because she had a close relationship with him.
"Aren't you her adopted daughter? And I broke my faith to help you transform the golden whip. No matter what, this is a big favor you owe me."
"But you, a little brat, want nothing. I don't know how long it will take me to wait for you to return the favor. Instead of doing this, I might as well just use your mother's favor to settle the matter."
Cynthia Xiao said soft words with reason and emotion, because the favor she owed was quite large, so she thought it would be best if she could just write it off.
It's a pity that Wen Jiu refuses to give in. He insists on handling his own affairs and refuses to call Yu Ruman to borrow this favor in return.
"You little brat, you are so heartless! I've been here with you all night!"
"It's not like I won't return the favor to you, and maybe one day you'll ask me for help."
The two argued like this for a long time, until the alarm of the electronic clock rang, making them realize that it was already half past six in the morning, and they temporarily stopped arguing.
In the end, Cynthia gave in. She said that she would squeeze Wen Jiu hard when she found the opportunity, so that the other party would be prepared to be squeezed by her.
Wen Jiu didn't worry about this. After thanking her again, she put away the golden whip and two pistols, and then returned to Wen Ji Restaurant according to the way she came from her memory.

Ah, I’ve been scratching my head thinking about the plot these days orz. Some plots are not that simple. Although the author himself is not very smart, there are people who are carefully conceiving and foreshadowing qaq!
