Chapter 93

The issue of time allocation between the two bodies has been subtly troubling Zhuochuan ever since he obtained the ability to travel through time and space. At first, Zhuochuan did not understand the situation and had to switch between the two bodies every day to handle various basic physiological needs, from eating to hygiene.

Later, he learned many common knowledge points and gained an understanding of the new world's body. He knew that this body, which had been strengthened to the extreme, could lie there for over ten days without eating or drinking, and the body would not suffer any issues, nor would it have any excretory needs.

However, the body in the modern world could not do the same. When he stayed in the new world, he had to return to the modern world at regular intervals to handle the issues of the modern world's body.

Recently, due to the increase in his soul power, he had strengthened the body in the modern world, and the various physiological indicators of the modern world's body had significantly improved. Not eating, drinking, or excreting for two or three days was no problem. However, out of habit, Zhuochuan still returned to the modern world's body regularly to clean up his personal hygiene.

Moreover, although he had two bodies, he could only use one at any given time, leaving the other idle. Just now, Dahuhei had pointed out that with such effort, it would be difficult for him to become a citizen within two years, and thus he would not be able to fulfill his promise to Old Xu.

However, he could not simply ignore the modern world and devote all his attention to the new world, as that would be a severe waste of time and opportunities. In the modern world, he could achieve great gains with minimal effort, such as the worldwide fame and the soon-to-come wealth, which he had obtained by merely transporting a small software and a paper from the new world.

The money and fame in the modern world were not useless; on the contrary, they were the foundation for Zhuochuan to accumulate soul power through the modern world. If he did not lay a solid foundation now and instead devoted all his energy to the new world, he would waste two years of development time.

The new world needed more intensive training, but he could not neglect the modern world. How to coordinate the time allocation between the two bodies had become a contradiction that needed to be resolved, otherwise, it would greatly slow down his development.

Zhuochuan began to face this issue and sought a solution.

Coincidentally, Dahuhei's recent doubts made him think about this again. He suddenly sat up from the bed, staring at Dahuhei's small eyes, and asked, "Dahuhei, let me ask you. When my soul enters the soul space during the day, only a fragment of my soul remains to maintain the basic physiological activities of the body, wasting 12 hours. If I could make this soul fragment more intelligent, not just passively maintaining physiological activities but also performing various advanced activities on my behalf, wouldn't I be utilizing this time? I asked you this before, and you said I should seek the God of Wisdom in Paradise City. How exactly should I do it?"

Dahuhei was taken aback; he did not expect Zhuochuan to have such a plan. Could it be that the owner's soul, upon entering the soul space, had discovered some special secret that required him to devote part of his energy to it, leaving him no time to train intensively in reality? That's why he thought of letting the soul fragment take over the body's activities during the day?

"But this requires a large amount of soul crystals. The God of Wisdom is not an easy person to deal with," Dahuhei hesitated, naturally not daring to ask what Zhuochuan had discovered in the soul space, but he answered.

"I remember you said that you told me about your origins in exchange for a promise. Can't we do the same now?" Zhuochuan dared to say this because he had passed the duel, significantly increasing his strength. More importantly, the time he spent learning with Dahuhei had given him a systematic understanding of soul knowledge, greatly reducing the mystery of the soul domain and boosting his confidence.

Moreover, Zhuochuan could infer that since the new world's body had a soul fragment working when his soul left, the modern world's body should be the same.

If both soul fragments could perform intelligent tasks, he could go to either body, and the other body could complete the tasks he set.

"This is possible, but since you are not a citizen yet, the chances are not high," Dahuhei nodded. The owner's words were not wrong; after a successful transaction, the God of Wisdom would certainly be satisfied with Zhuochuan's credibility.

"But I am different from ordinary reserve citizens. As you said, I will definitely regain my citizenship within three years at most. The other party must understand this. Even if they are strict, they will not rashly reject my request," Zhuochuan analyzed accurately.

"Alright, since you are so eager, let's go to Paradise City. Coincidentally, the verdict for Old Xu and the others has come out. They have been sentenced to three months of compulsory labor. The soul crystals you used to bail them out, except for the ones confiscated due to Ross's escape, have been returned to you. In total, you have 1,200 standard low-grade soul crystals, which can be used as travel expenses," Dahuhei said.

"Let's not waste any more time; let's set off immediately," Zhuochuan saw the hope of solving the problem and was very eager, hoping to achieve simultaneous activity in both bodies. This way, his work efficiency would be equivalent to two days for others, greatly accelerating his development and growth.

Of course, Zhuochuan's urgency also stemmed from another practical concern. During the incident when Deputy Xie tried to break in, his modern world's body was sleeping. Fortunately, he woke up in time to catch Deputy Xie and the other person. If it had been another disaster, such as a fire, his sleeping body would have been defenseless and unable to wake up to escape.

He was so eager that he did not even care about the modern world's body. After all, with the current level of enhancement, the body could go without eating, drinking, or excreting for two or three days without any problems.

...

In the modern world, Zhuochuan's home was already surrounded by reporters, experts, and admirers, but the person they wanted to see was sound asleep in the bedroom.

"Is Mr. Zhuo really living here?" a famous media reporter asked a nearby resident.

"Yes, Chuan lives here. He came back yesterday afternoon and greeted me. Has he become famous? There are so many reporters," a neighbor auntie said.

"Has he gone out since then?" the reporter asked again.

"It's impossible. We've been here since yesterday afternoon, waiting for him to go out so we can interview him. The auntie is right; he came home in the afternoon, but he walked too fast, and we couldn't catch up. We knocked on the door, but there was no response," a reporter from an entertainment newspaper said helplessly.

"So he hasn't gone out since yesterday afternoon?" the famous reporter was puzzled, "But knocking on the door and ringing the doorbell didn't work."

"Maybe he worked all night and is sleeping all day," someone offered a reasonable guess. In fact, this guess was the reality. Zhuochuan was sound asleep in the bedroom, and
