Chapter 110 Getting Ready to Go Out
"Huh? Not on good terms? Then why did Steward Wang rescue his heinous brother from prison?"
This time, Han Shuo really couldn't guess the reason, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Didn't you say it yourself? He's your own brother. No matter what, he's still related by blood. It's probably because Steward Wang is too kind-hearted and can't bear to see his own brother die of old age in prison."
"Out of consideration for blood ties, I lent a helping hand, hoping that Wang Bahu could repent and start anew. Unfortunately... a person with a bad nature can never be changed."
"In Steward Wang's view, this is probably the only decision he regrets."
"Although Steward Wang no longer acknowledges this younger brother, and you could even say that they have severed ties, many people in power still give Wang Bahu some face. It is through this relationship that Wang Bahu has climbed higher and higher."
Qingyu answered all of Han Shuo's doubts in one go.
"well."
Han Shuo sighed. Such a good person, stuck with such a brother, and the worst part is that he never learns from his mistakes. It's really enough to make Steward Wang very upset. No wonder they've severed ties now.
"Then, what is Steward Wang's name?"
Han Shuo asked one last question: if everything Qing Yu said was true, then he greatly admired this person.
"Wang Zhen!"
"Wang Zhen..." Han Shuo murmured.
A town? Perhaps it was fate; the apocalypse arrived, leaving behind this Chief Steward Wang to guard the research institute…
"Alright, let's not talk about him anymore. You're a genetically engineered human now, how does it feel?" Qingyu asked with a smile.
"Excellent! My whole body feels light and airy, yet brimming with power!"
Han Shuo became excited again when this was mentioned.
"Let's go, we won't go back yet. Your body needs to adjust as soon as possible. I'll go with you to practice."
"Huh? I don't really want to be watched by people."
"Don't worry, there's a closed training ground, no one will see us. Hurry up, spar with me a couple of times."
Qingyu hadn't been active for a while. Han Shuo was no match for him before, and now he wanted to see what level Han Shuo would reach after becoming a genetically modified human.
"good!"
...
Soon, Qingyu brought Han Shuo to the closed training ground.
Because it's a closed training ground, the training area isn't very big, but it's enough for the two of them to show off their skills.
Without further ado, the two got straight to work!
Bang!
Thirty seconds later, Han Shuo was kicked to the ground by Qing Yu.
Qingyu was very careful in her attacks; she would only knock people down, not injure them.
"Again!"
40 seconds later, Han Shuo was defeated again.
...
And so, Han Shuo fell to the ground again and again, but got up again and again.
Each time, he lasted longer, showing that real combat was indeed the best way. At this moment, Han Shuo was becoming more and more accustomed to his modified body.
Finally, half an hour later, Qingyu stopped.
"Okay, okay, I'm done playing, I'm exhausted."
"Let's play two more rounds!" Han Shuo was clearly still eager for more; such a good sparring partner was hard to find.
"I'm not playing anymore. Let's respect the elderly. I'm 45, almost 50, and my energy isn't as good as yours."
That's true. Although Qingyu is very strong, when it comes to endurance, he's no match for Han Shuo right now.
If the fight continues, Qingyu is likely to make a fool of himself.
He discovered that within half an hour, Han Shuo had completely mastered the new power and speed.
In actual combat, a Level 3 evolved human only has a slight improvement in reaction ability compared to a Level 1 human.
Han Shuo is a quick-witted kid. Once Qing Yu's physical strength declines, all his stats will also drop.
At this point, his physical condition was almost identical to Han Shuo's.
"Oh, okay, then I'll ask you out another day?"
"Damn, you still want to make an appointment? No way. Go ask Manager Wang instead. I'm sure he'd be more than willing to help you practice your ability to withstand blows."
"Forget it, I'm not fat, and I don't have masochistic tendencies."
Han Shuo smacked his lips, took out a towel from the side, and wiped the sweat off his body.
"Huh? Isn't Fatty Han Shuo's best friend? I didn't know he had this kind of hobby?"
Qingyu thought to herself, then shook her head with a wry smile.
These young people nowadays have such unique hobbies.
Now, the fat man is completely unable to clear his name...
After leaving the training ground, the two prepared to return directly to their residence.
On the way, Han Shuo pondered for a while before speaking.
"Hmm... Brother Qingyu, I've decided. The three of us will go out in a couple of days."
"Hmm? In such a hurry? I remember you have plenty of food."
Qingyu stopped and turned to look at Han Shuo.
"You always need to keep some for the journey."
"Actually, don't you still have some turbid liquid on you? If all else fails, just hand over a drop, and you can get enough food to eat for a month."
Qingyu said in a low voice.
"Can you exchange this much?"
Han Shuo was somewhat surprised. His original plan was to use the turbid liquid for evolution, and he hadn't really asked about its value in handing it over.
"Yes, the turbid liquid is arguably the most valuable thing in the research institute. Now that you are a genetically engineered human, you know best the difference between you and an ordinary human."
"That's true. I guess everyone wants to become a genetically engineered human, so that their chances of survival outside would be much higher," Han Shuo agreed.
"So, everyone wants it, and it's very scarce right now. Even if you send 100 ordinary survivors out, they might not be able to bring back a single drop."
Qingyu's words silenced Han Shuo.
After a pause, Han Shuo finally shook his head.
"Sigh, let's forget it. Fatty and Shurou need it too. I can't become a genetically modified human myself, so I won't consider them."
“I understand that, but you need to know that every time you go out, you have to be prepared for the worst. Try to use up all the resources you have here. Even if you don’t exchange for food, I suggest you exchange for some equipment to enhance the team’s strength.”
Qingyu thought for a moment and continued.
"You have guns now, but you don't really need them, um... but you should always have more ammunition on hand, as well as communication equipment, which is also essential."
“Brother Qingyu, what you said makes sense. I’ll go back and discuss it with them. Indeed, our equipment is too poor right now.”
Qingyu had considered everything very carefully for them. Han Shuo nodded, then immediately remembered something else and spoke up.
"By the way, Brother Qingyu, can you repair weapons here?"
"Repairing weapons? Your Tang sword? Is it broken? I remember your sword was made of very good material." Qingyu asked, somewhat puzzled.
"It's not broken, it's just been used for too long and feels a bit dull."
"Oh, I see..."
Qingyu thought about it carefully for a moment, and then spoke.
“Not only can it be repaired, it can even be recast. And I remember there are composite materials here, which are very hard, but you definitely can’t save a single drop of your turbid liquid.”
