Chapter 1775: This Kid Is Mostly Wasted
At the Kyoto Spirit Martial Research Institute laboratory, because it was close to the military base, it wasn't damaged and remained intact!
Jiangnan carried a basket of Yangque blood and ran excitedly into the lab to find Li Bing!
As soon as he entered, he saw Li Bing in her familiar white lab coat, crouched in front of an extremely complex energy emitter, poking at something unknown!
Her hair was a mess, and eight blue vine appendages extended from her back, holding a welding machine, wrench, screwdriver, soldering iron, and various other tools as she fiddled with the machine nonstop!
Jiangnan's eyes went wide!
(๑ʘ̅дʘ̅๑) Damn!
Ice God really is Ice God—she even knows mechanical repair?
"What did you make this time? A time-space shuttle machine?"
Li Bing didn't even turn her head, but several purple eyes suddenly opened on her blue vine appendages!
Each one was the size of an orange!
"Ohohoho~ Little Jiangnan is back? Wait a sec, I'm almost done here!"
But at that moment, Jiangnan and the others were frozen in place!
"(º口º*) What the hell? Isn't that… the Pupil Race's eye? How did you install it on your vine weapon?"
And not just one?
What's going on? Jiangnan knew from earlier experiments that the One-Eyed eyes pulled out by Small Fire Jars couldn't be installed across different races!
He'd tried to give one to Mo Mo before, but it failed—it simply didn't work!
But Li Bing's move here shocked Jiangnan. He knew well how freakishly powerful the Pupil Race's One-Eyed was!
Li Bing's eyes were full of excitement:
٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ "This should be about right, right? Block me? Dream on! Activate!"
As she pressed the start button, the object resembling an energy emitter began frantically accumulating energy, even absorbing energy from the air!
The lab lights flickered wildly, with sparks and lightning all the way!
The next instant, under Li Bing's expectant gaze, there was a loud "BOOM" as the machine exploded violently. Li Bing screamed and was blown away!
Jiangnan: !!!
I knew it was going to explode!
He had already used a Spatial Barrier to block it. Li Bing rubbed her head and climbed out of the rubble, looking annoyed:
୧(#･᷄～･᷅) "Why didn't it work? That's not scientific!"
So she gave herself a few big kisses, activating her Gifted Spiritual Art "Bobo" to heal herself.
Jiangnan was speechless: (￢～￢) "You're talking about science with me? You yourself are very unscientific, you know? How did you install the Pupil Race's One-Eyed into your vine weapon?"
"Can you set me up too? I'm not greedy—just install ten of the Yuzu Rank ones!"
Ten Star Pupil Cannons firing simultaneously? That would be so cool, right?
Li Bing giggled, came up to Jiangnan, and swayed her vine weapon proudly.
(◕ˇ◡ˇ◕) "Jealous? Who says different races can't install them? As long as you change the gene sequence of the vine weapon and borrow part of the One-Eyed Species' genes, it works!"
"My Blue Vine is basically an enchantment slot, you know? As for your Blood-Drinking Vine? Forget it—the gene sequences are different, not the same type—can't install them!"
"Hey hey hey~ Give me a few more Small Fire Jars? I have a big use for them!"
Jiangnan looked on with envy; he also wanted to open an eye for his Small Whip!
(๑՞ټ՞) "Then how about you figure out a way to mutate the genes or something? Set me up, and I'll give you as many Small Fire Jars as you want!"
Li Bing looked at Jiangnan like he was an idiot. Genes, you just mutate them as you please?
Your Blood-Drinking Vine is already Star Glory Rank—how can you mutate it?
(≖_≖) "Do you really think I'm a god or something?"
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow: (๑◔～◔ิ๑) "Aren't you?"
Li Bing rolled her eyes and punched Jiangnan's chest playfully:
(ૢ⁼̴ꇴ⁼̴)۶ "Ehehe~ Ehehehe~ I'll try!"
Jiangnan was so excited he started pulling out Small Fire Jars crazily, soon creating a mountain of jars.
"Oh, right, there are a few Parasitic Species in the jars too. I don't need them, so I'll give them to you for research!"
"And there's one called Shen, a Chaos Entity, also inside. You need to be careful—don't let it out easily. It's a completely energy-type lifeform, very hard to deal with. If it gets out, we're screwed!"
At this moment, Li Bing's drool was almost flowing out. She looked at Jiangnan like he was a little Pixiu!
(ง⁰̷̴͈꒨⁰̷̴͈)ง "Parasite Entity? Chaos Entity? Oh my gosh! I love alien lifeforms the most~"
"Don't worry about the rest—I know how to use Small Fire Jars better than you do! This divine artifact is wasted in your hands!"
Jiangnan's forehead was covered in sweat. Was the original owner of this item being looked down on?
"By the way, what machine were you just working on? Why did it explode again?"
Li Bing lovingly stroked a Small Fire Jar and said casually:
(•︠ˍ•︡#) "Ah, that? The communication system was cut off, and the satellites we launched afterward failed one by one."
"So it's not just simple signal jamming—there's a strange energy wave blocking electromagnetic wave transmission, and it's not that simple."
"Lunar communication is normal, but Blue Star isn't. I suspect some force has enveloped Blue Star, like putting it in a black box, isolating everything."
"I've tried many times to break through the blockade, but I haven't found a good solution yet. Going online is impossible. But I can still go fishing net."
Jiangnan was confused: (•︠～•︡)? "Fishing net? What kind of net is that?"
Li Bing's expression turned seductive. She raised an eyebrow at Jiangnan and lifted her white lab coat, revealing the fishnet stockings she was wearing underneath.
(๐❛ั.̫❛ั) "Wanna go?"
Jiangnan: Pfft~ (ԾεԾ⑉)
Damn it, fishnet stockings! That's way more exciting than going online!
Li Bing snickered: (˵ಡกಡ˵) "Okay, I'll stop teasing you. What did you come to me for?"
Jiangnan quickly showed Li Bing the basket of Yangque blood.
"Here! Didn't you say that with Yangque blood, you could upgrade my Blood Incineration? Is this enough? Go ahead and modify me!"
Li Bing's eyes went wide: (ºДº*) "Sigh~ You actually got it? And this consistency? Dao Heaven Rank Yangque?"
"The Yangque's body isn't that big, is it? How did you get so much blood?"
Xia Yao chuckled to herself. Not only did they get blood, they also dug out its Spirit Bead!
Jiangnan couldn't wait: "Can you do it? One Thought Asura feels a bit inadequate now!"
Li Bing looked Jiangnan up and down, shocked!
Already at Star Glory Rank 2 peak? He's rocketing up! When she first met Jiangnan, he was still a mere Silver Rank!
"I can do it! But I need to first check your current physical condition, strength, and such."
"If we're going to do it, we'll do it until you can't take it anymore!"
Jiangnan was excited:
(͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧ "Can't take it is the best! A body check, right? I'm familiar with that. Should I strip right here?"
As he spoke, he started to take off his clothes. Nearby, Zhong Yingxue was already covering her face. What terrible lines were these?
Li Bing giggled, and her Blue Vine weapon grabbed Jiangnan's big hand:
(˶‾᷄▿‾᷅˵) "Not this time. I'll do it myself!"
Jiangnan was stunned. No stripping this time? They should follow the proper procedure—can't skip it!
Li Bing extended eight vine appendages and started feeling around Jiangnan's body, probing spiritual power like threads into his body to check various data!
Even Jiangnan, whose face was as thick as a city wall, blushed under this assault!
This… this was a bit too stimulating, right?
Sister Li Bing was really skilled!
Seeing a vine tip probe into his waistband, Jiangnan's mouth twitched:
(̿▀̿﹏▀̿̿)̄ "Don't open your eyes randomly, okay? Or else you'll see everything!"
And from such close range!
Li Bing turned her head: (♡˘།～།˘) "Tch~ Who cares about looking? It's not like I've never seen it. How could I take the opportunity to open my eyes and peek at your little secrets?"
"Little Jiangnan has no secrets! Slurp~"
Jiangnan: (̿▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿)̄…
Next time you lie, could you wipe your nosebleed first?
"Activate One Thought Asura. Let me see."
Jiangnan obediently did as told. Li Bing wasn't really peeking; the One-Eyed's X-ray vision was just very useful, much more convenient than using machines!
Yeah, that's right. It's definitely not to understand the body structure of a handsome guy from the inside out!
As she looked, Li Bing frowned:
(｡･ˇ～ˇ･) "You used Yushen's Tears a lot, didn't you? I told you not to, but you didn't listen. That stuff is too damaging to the body!"
"The space power is very violent. Don't use it anymore."
Jiangnan laughed dryly: "I'll try my best."
But sometimes, it really wasn't a choice he could make!
Li Bing reluctantly withdrew her vine weapon: "Go back and wait. When I'm done, I'll upgrade you. As for the One-Eyed thing, I'll..."
Before she could finish, loud rumbling came from outside, and the ground began to shake!
Someone shouted: "Don't eat! You can't eat that! It's not spicy strips! It's one of our own!"
Jiangnan was startled?
What's happening? Spicy strips? Is Xing Cheng eating random things again?
He quickly teleported everyone over!
There, Xing Cheng had her mouth wide open, chomping down on a red figure, having already mangled half its body!
And Xiong Er, An Xiaoqi, and the others stood far away, shouting anxiously. They all looked like ghosts, as if they'd been begging for years outside!
Xiong Er said urgently: (｡•口•｡｀) "Brother Nan, you're finally here! Don't let Xing Cheng eat him—it's Wu Liang!"
Jiangnan: !!!
"Cheng Bao, Cheng Bao! Stop! He's one of us!"
Hearing the meal ticket's order, Xing Cheng stopped. This didn't look like one of her own at all!
It looked exactly like the spicy strips she'd eaten earlier!
Half of Wu Liang lay on the ground, pounding the ground in grief, crying to the sky!
|༎ຶ口༎ຶ`)ง "It's not my fault! It's the world's fault!"
The swallowed half of his body was rapidly regenerating. Seeing this, Jiangnan, Li Bing, and the others all widened their eyes!
What the hell? How can Wu Liang use Parasite Entity abilities?
Did he… mutate?
In a flash, Wu Liang recovered. His eye sockets were sunken, his cheeks thin, and he looked utterly haggard!
His eyes darted left and right, looking paranoid and suspicious!
Jiangnan teleported over and wrapped an arm around Wu Liang's shoulder!
(‧̣̥̇›꒪﹏꒪‹)ᵔᗜᵔ) "Haha! Way to go, big guy! You got back up! How did you..."
٩(ꐦ⊙͡口⊙͡ꐦ)۶ "Ah!!!"
Wu Liang screamed in terror, shook off Jiangnan's arm, and sprinted far away!
୧(‧̣̥̇͡⚆益͡⚆)୨ "D-don't come close! You might lose control of your Rift-Saw Blade and chop me up!"
"Or a space rift could open and send me into the Dimensional Gap!"
Wu Liang hugged his head and trembled, mumbling paranoidly:
"Damn it, this world is too dangerous. Hiss—it's the wind! It's a wisp of green blade! Under the butterfly effect, even a wisp of green blade could cause an earth-shattering hurricane that blows me away!"
With a "thud," a small stone hit the ground. Wu Liang jolted, his hair standing on end!
_(˃᷄益˂᷅」∠) "Hiss—a stone! Why did a stone fall for no reason? It must be! It must be an earthquake! Trying to get me? No way!"
He immediately knelt down, frantically digging a hole in the ground, and buried his head in it, shaking nonstop!
Jiangnan: ('▿'‧̣̥̇)…
"This… has he gone crazy?"
Scared of a wisp of wind and a small stone? This is the fearless Wu Liang?
I heard the kid's bad luck never improves?
He's mostly wasted!
