Chapter 343 KN Ore
"I understand." Xia Yue knew that Ansen was not a good person.
The current cooperation is simply a matter of each party getting what they need.
"You should be careful too. I have a feeling he might be interested in you," Xia Yue couldn't help but remind him.
Qu Wanwan said nonchalantly, "There are plenty of men who like me, he's nothing special."
After saying that, realizing that the person opposite her was her sister-in-law, she smiled and added, "Of course, my favorite person is your brother."
Xia Yue felt inexplicably envious of Qu Wanwan, who dared to love and hate.
She took the pill that cuts off all feelings and has forgotten what it feels like to like someone.
She didn't have the courage to sneak in and meet Qin Yeting today.
If she hadn't broken off all emotional ties, would she have tried to sneak in and see him?
She has been unable to find a cure for severing emotional ties and cutting off all love.
Since the new element KN can cure so many diseases, can it also cure "absence of love and affection"?
Xia Yue's mind was a complete mess, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.
In the end, she simply gave up and prepared her own self-defense poison.
She took out the item that Gu Mo had bribed her with today.
He thought it would be gold, but when he opened it, he found it was a hard, round black stone.
"That's it?" Xia Yue stared at the stone with suspicion.
"Where did you get this?!" Qu Wanwan exclaimed in surprise.
"What is this?" Xia Yue asked curiously.
Qu Wanwan picked up the black stone, examined it carefully in her hand, and then slowly said, "If I'm not mistaken, this is KN ore! It's this kind of ore that can extract KN elements."
"Is this it?" Xia Yue suddenly felt that this bribe was a bit too heavy.
Then, she keenly realized that Qu Wanwan seemed to know too much.
She and I came to the island together, but she was asleep for half a month at first.
But during that time, Qu Wanwan was outside the circle and probably had no access to this stuff.
Knowing Xia Yue's curiosity, Qu Wanwan didn't hide anything and said directly, "I come from the Witch Kingdom. I've seen this there. It's an extremely precious tribute item in our country, so I recognize it."
"You came to Broken Soul Island also for KN elements?"
"It started with this, but then I discovered there's something even more interesting, like your brother Feng Yao." Qu Wanwan's eyebrows curved into crescents, her smile was somewhat adorable, and her eyes seemed to hold glittering stars.
Is this what it means to love someone?
Was she and Qin Yeting like this before?
For some reason, Xia Yue couldn't help but let her mind wander, her thoughts filled with Qin Yeting's image.
The blurry figures from the past are slowly emerging.
Especially the scene of alternating hot and cold temperatures on the ship that night made her cheeks blush slightly.
She tried hard not to think about those images and deliberately talked to Qu Wanwan about serious matters.
Pointing to the KN ore from earlier, she continued, "This stuff can be refined to extract KN element. How do you refine it?"
"I don't know about that. It seems there's a special extraction method. This piece of ore is quite large, although it's only one-tenth the size of the tribute piece I've seen before. But something is better than nothing."
"It seems that Gu Mo is quite generous." Xia Yue pondered Gu Mo's previous words.
He bribed Anson because he wanted to know information about "Dr. X".
He probably didn't mean any harm, right?
No, that person's surname is Gu. As long as it's someone with the surname Gu, she can't let her guard down.
She's suffered too many losses at Gu Chen's hands.
Achoo!
Gu Chen, who was working in a laboratory with a room temperature of only four degrees Celsius, suddenly sneezed.
His subordinate immediately asked, "Is the air conditioning too cold? Should we turn the temperature up?"
"Idiot, this is the temperature at which K and N elements are most active. It will affect the experimental data. Do you want to die?" Gu Chen cursed back viciously.
The subordinates immediately fell silent.
Half an hour later, the experiment failed.
Another Class A experimental subject has been rendered useless.
Gu Chen's expression grew increasingly grim.
He asked in a cold voice, "How many A-levels are left?"
"We only have five spares left," the subordinate replied weakly.
"Five? That's too few, not even enough for a week. Catch more test subjects! Isn't another group coming to Broken Soul Island? Catch them from among those people!" Gu Chen shouted angrily.
The subordinates stood respectfully to the side, not daring to utter a sound.
Gu Chen lost interest in doing the experiment, so he went back to his office.
Seeing that Gu Chen was very hot-tempered and often lost his temper, his subordinates thought that Gu Chen must have an imbalance of yin and yang, and that he was working too hard, which caused abnormal hormone levels in his body.
Perhaps finding a woman for Lord Gu Chen would improve things a bit.
Therefore, this subordinate took it upon himself to propose that Gu Chen "select concubines" within the scope of his authority.
He knew that Gu Chen had been looking for a woman, so he deliberately chose a woman whose features were somewhat similar to the one Gu Chen had been looking for.
At 10 p.m., Gu Chen still hadn't left the base.
The subordinates brought the woman in white, who was dressed in a pretty and beautiful way but was trembling all the time, into the base.
"Be smart and remember to appease Lord Gu Chen, or you'll regret it!"
"Please...please let me go..."
"If you serve Lord Gu Chen well, he will naturally let you go!" the subordinate threatened coldly.
The woman in white, whose features resembled Xia Yue's, could only timidly continue forward.
Upon arriving at Gu Chen's office, the subordinate went in first, smiling and saying to Gu Chen, "Lord Gu Chen, you've worked so hard for so long, wouldn't you like to relax? I've found something to amuse you, I'm sure you'll like it!"
