They didn't walk very far, only a few dozen meters, before they arrived at a house.

Hua Changle went inside, subtly glanced around, and noticed that there were similar structures on the wall in the same direction.

"Holy crap, did they drill through the entire lake from both ends to connect the rooms?"

"How long is it? How many hidden rooms are there?"

It's hard to say.

[I could only briefly infiltrate their network. There were no surveillance cameras in those rooms; I could only probe the underwater layout using a high-precision probe on the outside. But even that didn't give me enough time to get a clear picture.]

Naihe walked to the side, turned on the light, and closed the door behind him.

With the lights on, the interior layout is immediately apparent.

The layout is divided into left and right sides.

The left side looks like an operating room, and the right side looks like an office.

There is a partitioned space next to this room, from which Hua Changle cannot see.

Naihe pointed to the chair in front of the desk: "Ajiu, you sit down first, I'll go get the equipment."

Hua Changle sat down. Not long after, Naihe came over with a smart blood testing device.

Hua Changle stretched out his finger and aimed it at the blood collection port, but instead turned the blood collection port and blood collection tank open, opening the blood collection tank with the second capacity.

This is generally used for blood samples of 100 ml or more.

Hua Changle pulled his hand back: "What to do?"

Naihe smiled and said, "Ajiu, to ensure the accuracy of the experimental results, let's take the amount that guarantees the effect, right? I don't think you want to have to take another sample because the effect is not obvious, do you?"

Hua Changle wasn't stupid, and immediately said:

"But if I draw 100 milliliters, the effect will be less than a drop of the blood you used that time. If the same effect is needed later, how many times can I draw blood from this body?"

"But Ah Jiu, if I can detect that effect, I might be able to amplify it, which would actually reduce my need for you in the future. If it fails multiple times, wouldn't that be even worse for you?"

However, he seemed to be looking out for her.

Even though Hua Changle didn't know that Mr. Donggui would only give Naihe one chance to have his blood drawn, he could tell from Kazmir's attitude toward Naihe this morning that he wouldn't become an experimental subject.

Unfortunately, she certainly can't be used multiple times, and it's even possible that this is the only chance she has, which is why she deliberately wants to draw more.

Of course she couldn't agree to that.

She only retained a small portion of her unconverted sea creature abilities; if she had too much blood, these abilities wouldn't be able to mask the potency of her blood.

"Unfortunately, if this effect could really be amplified and replicated, I wouldn't have the chance to sit in front of you today."

If the abilities of that unknown blood could be easily copied, her abilities would not seem so precious.

However, her expression turned slightly cold, but she quickly regained her composure and calm.

"Then let's draw ten milliliters, Ajiu, come on."

He gently supported her arm and placed it into the low-powered blood-drawing tank, as if he weren't the one who had just been struggling to get it done.

Hua Changle had almost gotten used to his ability to change his expression in an instant.

My arm was placed in the blood-drawing tank, the machine started, and a barely perceptible stinging sensation came from my arm as blood was being drawn.

Hua Changle appeared to be making no movements, and even deliberately controlled her heartbeat, but her supernatural abilities were actually operating quietly within her body.

She glanced at Naihe's expression out of the corner of her eye—it hadn't changed at all.

He did not detect any unusual activity in her supernatural abilities.

A trace of domineering ice attribute mixed with the spiritual attribute of the sea creature flowed into the anticoagulant tube along with the blood.

Blood draw complete.

After taking the anticoagulant tube, he got up and hurriedly went into another room.

He couldn't wait to verify the fusion effect.

The wound from Hua Changle's blood draw has been automatically fitted with a medicated bandage by the instrument.

She went over to look too. He didn't say she couldn't look; she could look for a few moments if she wanted.

Hua Changle walked straight in.

This place resembles a chemistry lab. However, right in front of the lab table, a special pair of glasses had already been fitted, and an intelligent robot was ready to go.

His experimental subject was a different species—an ice fish.

Similar to the two-headed dog, this half-meter-long ice fish had its skin peeled off from its heart to its core, replaced with a transparent thin film. Through the film, connected tubes display data in real time.

Icefish, a species unique to Ice Lake, has abilities just like its name suggests: ice-related.

However, their ice attribute is mainly limited to freezing and breaking ice over a very small area, making them quite weak.

The ability to infuse the ice fish is a relatively mild wood-attribute ability.

However, he was focused on the experiment and didn't care that Hua Changle was watching from the side.

Unfortunately, this time Hua Changle was not put in charge of transferring the superpower. Instead, the entire process was carried out using instruments, with her blood being added only halfway through.

Icefish has a relatively weak tolerance for stress. As soon as a small amount of supernatural power was injected, several data points on the screen quickly spiked to red.

However, it was carefully dripped into the blood.

"drop."

Only one drop.

After waiting a moment... there was no effect.

However, seeing the alarming data still in effect, he became anxious and poured in a few more drops of blood.

It looks like there are 3 milliliters left.

The two kept a close eye on each set of data, paying close attention to any changes.

Suddenly, the red light dimmed and then turned into a green light.

More than half of the data has begun to recover.

Naihe's body trembled uncontrollably, and he was so excited that he wanted to crush the handle in his hand.

Hua Changle was also sweating: the superpowers mixed in there couldn't possibly be useless, could they?

Her heart started racing uncontrollably.

Just when my heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to burst out of my chest, the data suddenly changed again!

More data suddenly spiked, and even the ice fish's body trembled violently, as if the thin membrane was about to shatter!

"not good!"

Unfortunately, I was at a loss the first time.

Just as he hesitated between adding more blood or adjusting the ice fish's parameters, Hua Changle pulled him away, saying, "Be careful!"

"Bang—"

Ice shards, mixed with flesh and blood, flew and bounced like unfolded shrapnel.

The frozen fish exploded!

In an instant, a fishy smell filled the air.

However, upon realizing what was happening, his pupils suddenly contracted.

He staggered to the lab table, reaching out to scoop up the bits of meat, but the sticky, wet bits of meat slipped through his fingers uncontrollably.

His lips trembled, and his words were incoherent: "No, no, no, it's impossible... impossible! How could this happen! How, how could this be..."

All the previous confidence, gentleness, and indifference shattered at this moment.

He stood by the lab bench, his hands trembling as he supported himself on the table, his expression desolate, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

Hua Changle remained silent.

Suddenly, he looked up, pulled up the control panel, and retrieved the data reflecting the entire process.

Hua Changle didn't understand many things, but she understood the last line:

"An extra-experimental ability has been discovered, and its intensity exceeds the limit—"

Ability Detection Result—Possesses the ability [Ice Moon].

【Ice Moon】 is the name Kazmir gave to his ice-shard ability.

Unfortunately, his supernatural ability data was stored in the laboratory.
