Chapter 368 - Heart of Wisdom

?Su Ming was unaware of the events unfolding at his school. The school's administration wanted to inform him, but they couldn't broach the subject on their own initiative. Once he returned home, Su Ming promptly called his parents to confirm that the issue had been resolved. He also instructed them to deliver 100,000 yuan to Su Qiu's residence. With everything in order, Su Ming finally relaxed.

?Leaving the villa, he made his way to the fields bathed in moonlight. The melons were thriving. Su Ming watered them and fetched some fertilizer from the storehouse to spread over the soil. Next, he headed to the adjacent banana plantation where the plants had begun to sprout. He fetched a hose from a nearby thatched hut and began watering the bananas, which were Level Two crops.

Su Ming then turned his attention to a mysterious plant. To his delight, he discovered it had blossomed. The enigmatic plant swayed gently with the breeze. Its broad leaves featured a striking golden stripe that connected to other veins, shining brilliantly and looking quite stunning. At its center was a large red flower, about the size of a hand, which had unfurled into a beautiful bloom. At the heart of the flower was a multicolored orb of light. Despite his scrutiny, he couldn't discern what lay within the flower. After waiting an entire half-month, the time to harvest had finally arrived. Checking the time, he realized he could reap the rewards the following morning.

When Su Ming activated the scanner, it returned only question marks. “Yuvyuv, do you know what this is?” he inquired mentally.

“Master, I am not sure. My level is too low,” Yuvyuv responded.

Su Ming blinked, suddenly aware of a potential solution. “Yuvyuv, is it possible for you to level up?”

?”Of course!”

“And how can you level up?”

“My permissions are insufficient to provide an answer. However, once you level up, you'll soon find out,” Yuvyuv explained.

Su Ming nodded, taking in Yuvyuv's words. Yuvyuv had the capability to level up. She functioned as a smartwatch, enabling him to converse with her and keep track of time and his interactions with the System. Although her capabilities were elementary, she had already surpassed the artificial intelligence of contemporary society in her ability to engage in fluid conversation—a feat many AI systems had yet to achieve.

What will she become after the upgrade?

Su Ming struggled to contain his inner excitement.

He visited the breeding zone, aquatic product area, and herding area.

Su Ming dashed over and crouched before the wondrous plant.

The flower was in full bloom, emitting beams of rainbow light from its core, and at the heart of the blossom floated a crystal resembling a water droplet, shimmering with all the colors of the rainbow.

?Su Ming, puzzled, reached out to grasp the object.

“Congratulations, Host, you have obtained the Heart of Wisdom!”

Su Ming paused, taken aback.

He initiated a scan, only to be met with a series of question marks: clearly, the item was of an exceptionally high level.

This was, after all, a Level Four crop.

“Yuvyuv, what's the Heart of Wisdom for?” Su Ming inquired mentally.

?”Master, if you place the Heart of Wisdom on some basic robots, it can induce their evolution, eventually granting them human emotions. The more advanced the robot's intelligence, the more effective the evolution,” Yuvyuv explained in his mind.

Su Ming nearly leapt with excitement.

“Master, rest assured, even after the robots evolve, they will remain obedient to you!” Yuvyuv assured him telepathically.

Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief, the crystal radiating brilliant colors in his hand. He mulled over the idea of purchasing a robot to test out. Yuvyuv's voice echoed in his mind, “I recommend that you refrain from using the Heart of Wisdom for now, Master. The artificial intelligence of the market's robots is currently too rudimentary. Please be patient and wait a while longer.”

Su Ming paused, a spark of joy igniting within him as he grasped Yuvyuv's implication. The robots available on the market were quite basic, capable only of running simple programs. To use the Heart of Wisdom on them would indeed be squandering its potential. Yuvyuv's advice suggested that more sophisticated robots were on the horizon.

After some deliberation, Su Ming identified three potential avenues to acquire such intelligent robots. One was the advancement of modern human technology to create more complex robots. However, Yuvyuv was not able to foresee the future; she could only make predictions based on the System's pre-set parameters. Therefore, her hint likely didn't pertain to this scenario.

?Another possibility was the emergence of robots in the shop, though this seemed to be a long shot. The final, and most curious possibility, was that robots might one day spring forth from the earth itself!
