Chapter 374 People are not plants

When Yin Ling woke up in the morning, she went out early.

After making a decision last night, she let go of her obsession and decided to accompany Lin Ran as a friend for the last journey.

She knew that it was very irrational to do so, and it was against her original intention.

But when she asked herself, she found that she had recognized Lin Ran as a friend.

When she was with him, she no longer felt that she was a machine fighting for the continuation of the race, and her heart once again had the passion and throbbing of her youth.

But what she didn't know was that she had already stepped into the big script network carefully compiled for her by Fengqi and Scarlet Research Institute.

In the next few days, Yin Ling was dating Lin Ran.

Her emotions were no longer disguised during these days, and they were completely released. The figures of the two were all over the Star City.

Because she didn't know when the assassination of the weak race alliance in the field would appear, Yin Ling cherished the last time with Lin Ran.

...

Half a month later, late at night.

In the western suburbs of Star City, on the top of Xingfeng Mountain.

Lin Ran and Yin Ling sat on the cliff on the top of the mountain, looking into the distance, and the prosperous night scene of Star City with bright lights was in full view.

The night wind blew on her face, and the rustling sound of leaves blowing in the wind was in her ears.

Listening to Lin Ran's endless talk about the new concept of magic, Yin Ling looked through the photos in her hand under the bright moonlight.

These photos were taken these days.

A photo of them showing their fangs and claws in front of the tiger in the zoo, a photo of them toasting with milk tea in front of the milk tea shop, a photo of them holding guns in the arcade... These pictures recorded every bit of their time together, and will become an important node in her memory.

Even though this memory may be short-lived.

The night wind stirred her long hair, and she turned her head to look at Lin Ran, and a charming smile immediately appeared on her face.

Lin Ran also turned his head to look at him at this time, and his expression was obviously stunned.

At this time, she punched Lin Ran in the chest:

"Stinky boy, what are you looking at?"

"Looking at a beautiful woman."

"I advise you not to have any ideas about me, otherwise I will beat you." Yin Ling clenched her fist and waved, pretending to be vicious.

"You are too conceited. Do you think I want to get close to you? That's because the top leaders of Xingcheng unanimously agreed that we are suitable. I am considering the future of mankind. Reproduction is very important."

"Slightly~slightly~slightly~." Yin Ling couldn't help sticking out her tongue.

Looking at the bright smile on Lin Ran's face, Yin Ling's heart was rippled.

In recent days, the Weak Race Alliance in the Domain has not launched any action against Lin Ran, which she can understand.

After all, the first mission failed, and the second action must be fully prepared.

But she thinks this time will not be too long.

The assassination of the Weak Race Alliance in the Domain will definitely continue, and Lin Ran's life will eventually pass away.

Thinking of this, for some reason, she suddenly felt a little difficult to breathe.

She did not regret issuing the task of assassinating Lin Ran, but she was a little reluctant.

Taking a deep breath, Yin Ling looked at Lin Ran and asked softly:

"A Ran, if you have a very good friend who is about to go on a long journey and may never come back, what will you do?"

Faced with the question, Lin Ran showed a thoughtful look.

After a long silence, he grinned and said,

"If the separation is destined to be irreversible, then cherish the days with him until the day of separation comes."

"Yeah." Yin Ling nodded softly.

"Why, a friend is leaving recently?" Lin Ran asked in surprise.

"I just suddenly thought of this question, it's not something that happened to me." Yin Ling shook her head and smiled.

Looking at Yin Ling, Lin Ran had the answer in his heart.

He knew why Yin Ling asked this.

But this question was also in front of him.

From the beginning, he started the task with a resistance mentality, but in getting along with Yin Ling, he found that he gradually had feelings.

People are not plants, who can be heartless.

He found that he felt very comfortable when getting along with Yin Ling.

He didn't even need to pretend deliberately during the contact, and he could resonate with Yin Ling naturally.

These days, Yin Ling also gave him a lot of inspiration in the development of magic.

With a high degree of fit in the three views, he even had the illusion that he was really in love.

Hearing Yin Ling's question at this moment, he couldn't help asking himself the same question.

Overlooking the brilliant lights of Star City, Lin Ran smiled and said:

"Even if we will say goodbye eventually, at least we have left each other with some beautiful memories. Maybe when we are old and look back, we will be nostalgic for all the good things in the past."

Hearing this, Yin Ling's heart trembled, and then rolled her eyes and said:

"Why are we talking about such a sad topic?"

"You brought it up first."

"You talked about it in depth and detail."

"You hypocritical woman, are you being unreasonable? You are so willful, I suspect you became the dean of the Energy Research Institute by connections?"

"You rely on connections, I rely on strength and talent." Yin Ling showed her fangs, looking angry.

"By the way, how is the food at your Energy Research Institute? When can you take me there for a meal?"

"It's fine, just remember to pay. I hate people with connections, especially those who rely on connections to get free food and drinks."

"You mean you rely on connections to take me in for a meal? In that case, spit out the crayfish I treated you to last night."

"First, spit out the seafood dinner you had the night before."

"Ugh."

"Eh~ you're so disgusting."

...

After the fight, Yin Ling stood up from the edge of the cliff, looked towards the direction of Star City and said with a smile:

"Do you want to hear me sing?"

"Hmm?" Lin Ran looked up at Yin Ling curiously.

The night wind blew Yin Ling's white skirt, her black hair danced with the wind, and she seemed to be covered with a faint halo under the bright moonlight, like a holy fairy who was not stained by the mundane world.

Without waiting for her answer, Yin Ling opened her lips slightly and began to hum.

The humming sound was like the sound of nature, and it was like a gentle breeze washing the soul, and the melodious tune drifted away with the night wind.

At this time, Yin Ling was like a forest elf, singing as if saying goodbye, and as if recording...

Looking at Yin Ling, Lin Ran couldn't help but be a little crazy.

After the song, Yin Ling smiled and looked down at Lin Ran:

"Is it nice?"

"It's nice, but why is there no lyrics?"

Faced with the question, Yin Ling did not answer directly.

Because this song comes from the Silver Moon Clan, the language used is completely different from the language used by humans.

"Sometimes imperfection is also a kind of beauty, isn't it?"

Lin Ran listened with a thoughtful look, then grinned:

"Yes, haziness is also a kind of beauty. After all, the lyrics are too straightforward. Without lyrics, there will be more room for imagination, and everyone can fill in their own emotions."

"Hey, hey, you are just a little kid, do you have to be so profound when talking?" Yin Ling couldn't help rolling her eyes.

"Haha, my fault, I just suddenly felt inspired."

"I'm a little hungry, let's make a midnight snack?"

"Midnight snack is no problem, Lingqi will decide who will treat tonight." Lin Ran said provocatively.

"If you want to treat, just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush."

​​After the voice fell, Yin Ling raised her hand to outline the Lingqi chessboard, then looked at Lin Ran and said contemptuously.

"Rookie, you go first."

"Ladies first, I'm going to start seriously in this game, I'm afraid that Mengsong will say that you are a bit arrogant!

" "The king of strong mouth."

"Don't talk nonsense, come and fight."

…

In the next few days, Lin Ran would date Yin Ling every night.

During their time together, the relationship between the two continued to heat up.

Sometimes Lin Ran even forgot that he was carrying out a mission in a trance, and had completely integrated into the role required by Feng Qi.

At the same time, he did not fall behind in the research and development of magic.

In order to complete this task, Lin Ran’s dormitory has been filled with various drawings these days.

He is often seen testing and recording data in the Star City Magic Laboratory.

The research and development of spirits is progressing very quickly.

In addition to Lin Ran’s own talents, Yin Ling also played an auxiliary role.

After all, Yin Ling’s true strength far exceeds Lin Ran, and she has a deep foundation in magic.

Magic is different from martial arts. It is an ability that can be used by all races. This is also the reason why the Night Shadow Clan controlled human geniuses. The reason for developing magic.

With the continuous improvement of "Spirit Body", Lin Ran finally developed the first version of the Spirit Body.

For this reason, he made an appointment with Yin Ling. That night, the two drank and chatted by the lake to celebrate the progress of magic research.

And the second step of Feng Qi's plan finally came to a critical node.

He began to let Hupo Research Institute vigorously publicize Lin Ran's research and development results.

This is to let the outside world know about Lin Ran's achievements.

As Feng Qi expected, major media soon began to report in turn that the new generation genius Lin Ran had developed a new magic.

Guided by public opinion, netizens discussed this newly emerging super genius.

For a time, Lin Ran became a rising star that everyone was paying attention to.

The new magic he developed also attracted people's attention, and they were all looking forward to the first round of evaluations given by Hupo Research Institute.

...

Five days later.

Yin Ling sat in the office, looking out the window.

During this period of time, the Weak Clan Alliance in the Domain has not made any movement.

She was very confused about this and didn't understand why the Weak Clan Alliance in the Domain hadn't taken action against Lin Ran.

But for some reason, a hint of joy rose in her heart.

It was like a little girl holding colorful bubbles in her hands, knowing that the splendor in her hands would eventually break, but cherishing the short-lived possession.

"Sister, what are you thinking about?"

At this time, a voice sounded from the side, interrupting Yin Ling's thoughts.

"Nothing."

"Why do you have to see that Lin Ran every day? Isn't it just a task for the top management of Xingcheng? Now that you have been in contact with him for a while, you can almost refuse it." The silver-haired boy standing next to Yin Ling asked curiously.

"Don't worry about it, I have my own plans." Facing her brother's inquiry, Yin Ling said unhappily.

"Oh. "The silver-haired boy nodded obediently, but he was muttering in his heart.

After clearing his mind, Yin Ling took a deep breath, picked up the latest report of the Energy Research Institute on the table, and looked through it carefully.

A few hours later, Yin Ling put down the report and picked up the tablet.

After waking up the screen, she began to look through the latest news.

Recently, Lin Ran has become the focus of attention in Xingcheng and even the entire human society.

Information related to him has become the content that major media are competing to report.

Lin Ran's talent has been recognized by the vast majority of people.

Yin Ling was not surprised by this.

Since the moment she came into contact with Lin Ran, she knew that Lin Ran would stand out and become a human pioneer in promoting the rapid development of magic in the future.

In her eyes, Lin Ran is like a dusty pearl.

One day, it will shine like a dazzling new star and become a legend in human history.

After opening the news app, the headlines that caught her eye were still about Lin Ran.

But after seeing the title, she was stunned.

[The first round of evaluation of Tiger Soul: The virtual test result of "Spirit Body" was S-level, but during the actual test, three evaluators were urgently sent to the Scarlet Affiliated Hospital, suspected of serious hidden dangers in the spirit body! ]

Clicking on this news and carefully examining the content of the news, Yin Ling frowned slightly.

The evaluation report of the Tiger Soul Research Institute was written in great detail.

The virtual test results of the spirit body were perfect, but when the magic evaluator actually tested it, the magic backfired.

As a result, the three magic testers bled from all seven orifices and were rushed to the hospital.

This is undoubtedly a major magic accident.

Below this news, many questioning voices have appeared.

But in comparison, the voices defending Lin Ran accounted for the majority, completely overwhelming the doubts.

It is very common for magic to have problems.

What puzzled Yin Ling was that the "Spirit Body" which seemed to her to be completely fine, had a problem.

After exiting the news, she began to look through related news.

At this time, a news message popped up.

[The Tiger Soul Research Institute came out to explain: After a new round of evaluation, it was found that the "Spirit Body" technique had serious hidden dangers. It can be determined that the problem this time is in the logic of the operation of the technique. Lin Ran is suspected to have made a basic mistake, resulting in the connection of the technique trajectory being incoherent, and it is easy to backfire...]

Clicking on this news, a new round of evaluation reports from the Tiger Soul Research Institute was attached.

The fatal error in the connection trajectory of the aura was analyzed with pictures.

This error is a basic error, which is obviously caused by Lin Ran's carelessness when developing the technique.

The subsequent connection trajectory of the technique is based on this error, which is equivalent to the entire technique trajectory being crooked.

In other words, this technique needs to be completely rebuilt and cannot be truly promoted.

There are already many comments below the news that has just been released.

This time, the voice of criticism has increased significantly.

The basic logical error obviously made the public very disappointed in Lin Ran.

All the praises before had the opposite effect at this moment.

Some people even said in the comments that even beginners would not make such low-level mistakes. Lin Ran could still make mistakes, which proved that he had not carefully checked the magic he developed, which was really irresponsible.

Seeing these comments, Yin Ling's eyes showed a trace of sorrow.

Although she wanted Lin Ran to die, she didn't want him to die with a stigma.

These comments really made her angry, and she even wanted to go online and personally scold him... The drastic change of emotions even scared Yin Ling herself. After

thinking again and again, she dialed Lin Ran's phone.

When the call was connected, Lin Ran's voice came:

"If it's a consolation, there's no need to say it. I'm not that weak."

"I know you're not that fragile. I just want to ask you out for a midnight snack tonight."

"No problem, by the way, I'll tell you a good news. I already have a brand new idea for magic. This failure will only make me stronger... Anyway, I'll tell you in detail tonight."

"Yeah."

After hanging up the phone, Yin Ling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She didn't know why she was so nervous.

She clearly hoped that Lin Ran would die, but she also hoped that he would die slowly, and she didn't want him to die in sadness.

This complex change of emotions really made her a little crazy.

The silver-haired boy on the side looked at Yin Ling, whose expression kept changing, with a heart full of question marks.

He didn't understand why his sister, who was always calm in the face of things, had changed so much in recent times. She seemed to have something on her mind, and she was always in a daze even when she was working.

"Sure enough, what father said is right. Women are strange creatures."

As if hearing the silver-haired boy's murmur, Yin Ling looked up at him, and his cold eyes made him shudder.

"Sister, I'm going to read a book."

As soon as the voice fell, the figure of the silver-haired boy disappeared from the spot and fled.

My sleep quality has been getting worse and worse recently, and I plan to find time to check my body.

Everyone remember to go to bed early~
