Chapter 73: A Chapter with a Taste...



thump…

A black rat, several tens of centimeters long, crawled out of the toilet in one of the rooms.

But the white mouse didn't rush to carry out Qin Sheng's plan. Instead, it went to the sink and kept rinsing itself, occasionally gagging.

It seems to have been affected by the stench…

Even a mouse like me has intelligence! I can crawl into sewers! I can dig up indescribable things!

This is something a human being would do!

After being thoroughly cleaned, the white mouse pulled a yellow object out of its fur.

People always have some really strange ideas that suddenly pop into their heads.

After preparing to have the white mouse feed Kate the potion, Qin Sheng pondered how to deliver the potion to the white mouse.

Unfortunately, I'm on the toilet right now...

Since the medicine can be turned into a syringe or a test tube, why can't it be yellow...?

So, as Qin Sheng flushed the toilet, the medicine was already prepared in a sewer, waiting for the white mouse to dig it out.

The white mouse searched around the room and finally settled its gaze on the neatly arranged bottled water in the refrigerator, which looked quite high-end.

The mouse unscrewed a bottle, smashed the yellow outer shell, and the liquid inside dissolved into the mineral water.

Silently, it put the bottled water back, with a hint of pity in its eyes.

It was merely dug out, but Kate was going to drink this potion, dug out of something indescribable…

Having found a hiding place, the mouse waited for Kate to return.

A moment later, footsteps came from the doorway, and a pair of eyes watched Kate enter the room from the shadows.

"Useless! You've broken the rule that you can only use one technique, yet you still haven't managed to force Yu Rui to reveal a weakness."

Kate opened the refrigerator, grumbling, and grabbed the outermost bottle of mineral water, unscrewing it.

Glug glug…

"Why does it smell a bit bad?"

Kate muttered to herself, her expression gradually turning serious as she looked at the water bottle. She realized that there was no resistance when she twisted the cap, meaning it had already been opened!

Damn it!

His mind raced, and he couldn't figure out who was trying to drug him. The important thing now was to get to the infirmary immediately!

"Save your breath."

Qin Sheng noticed the suddenly appearing red dot and knew that the guinea pig had succeeded, so he immediately turned his attention to it.

As his voice rang out, Kate's body stiffened, and she stood frozen in place, unable to move.

Seeing the open water bottle and half-open refrigerator through his line of sight, Qin Sheng was speechless.

The white mouse is intelligent, but not very smart. This method is full of flaws, yet it still succeeded.

Qin Sheng was a little curious. He felt that Kate shouldn't be such a stupid person. Didn't she notice that the water bottle had been opened when she twisted it?

How did you fall for it?

Kate answered honestly that she hadn't noticed anything unusual about the water bottle.

"So stupid?" Qin Sheng asked, puzzled. "Then why are you targeting me? Oh, I'm Qin Sheng."

Kate was shocked. How could it be him!

“I suspect you are connected to the Creation Cult that appeared in District 7. After all, you are an academic genius from District 7, and your published papers are all related to alien beasts. I think you are the technician behind the Creation Cult.”

Qin Sheng raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you ever consider that the Creation Cult might not be local to District Seven?"

Kate paused for a moment, then said, "No."

Rolling his eyes, Qin Sheng shook his head, realizing he had overestimated Kate's intelligence!

That's not an overestimation, considering Kate has been playing the arrogant and domineering role in the university for several years now.

He kept pretending to be a pig, but ended up actually becoming one.

"Don't waste your time," Qin Sheng asked directly.

"You were testing Yu Rui, so why are you targeting the Creation Cult?"

"Technology, the technology that allows humans to master the power of alien beasts."

Kate honestly explained her purpose. Flying Cherry City had received instructions from Sky Eagle City to study the power of alien beasts. After the emergence of the Creation Cult, Sky Eagle Kingdom immediately set its sights on their technology.

Therefore, Kate's original mission of obtaining the Nirvana Fruit was changed to finding traces of the Creation Cult.

"Sky Eagle City, this must be the city that assisted in the establishment of Flying Cherry City."

Qin Sheng said with a playful tone, "Could the name 'Flying Cherry Blossom City' also be a way to curry favor with them?"

"Yes."

Qin Sheng was not surprised at all that someone was secretly conducting experiments on strange beasts.

What humanity has learned from history is that it never learns from its mistakes.

"Have you sent the message back regarding me and Yu Rui?"

"I have already informed Flying Cherry City that I am testing you."

Qin Sheng frowned slightly. This was not good news, but he was currently at Kaitian Academy and could not cause him any trouble in the short term.

"Now tell me about Kaitian Academy, tell me everything you know."

...

"Teacher Qi?"

Ye Bufan was summoned to the office.

"They're here."

Teacher Qi is the teacher who gives them lessons in the morning and also gives Qi Jie extra tutoring.

Perhaps because they were all from the Qi family, the fight was exceptionally fierce, leaving Qi Jie in pain all over his body.

"Please sit down."

Qi Zongwu politely pulled out a chair for him, as if he were afraid that Ye Bufan would get tired.

This situation flattered Ye Bufan. Was this the same Teacher Qi who had been so ruthless and violent that morning?

"Teacher Qi, you're too kind." Ye Bufan scratched his head and said, "Teacher, please just say what you need to say."

Qi Zongwu nodded: "Then I'll get straight to the point, how much do you know about your sister?"

"My sister?" Ye Bufan recalled, "We used to have a good relationship, but after our parents disappeared, my sister rarely smiled, and later she became even more quiet and aloof."

"Hmm." Qi Zongwu nodded: "Your parents are part of the reason, but your sister's decrease in talking has little to do with that."

"Huh? Teacher, what do you mean?" Ye Bufan sensed something was wrong.

"Actually, your sister is trying a path that has never been taken before."

Qi Zongwu sighed, "This matter has to start with the sequence."

"Sequence?" Qin Sheng squinted.

Kate nodded: "The Sequence is a concept jointly proposed by us at Nine Cities. It is a seed that can hunt down calamity species at the same level and has the potential to wipe out alien beasts."

"You mean Ye Qianqing is a member of the sequence?"

Kate shook her head: "No, Nine City currently only has two sequence seeds. Ye Qianqing is not in this category, but if she completes the conjecture of Kaitian City, she may be able to enter the sequence."

"What conjecture?"

"Bone tempering".

Qi Zongwu pointed to his head and said, "You've mastered the brain needle technique too, haven't you?"

Ye Bufan nodded: "What does this have to do with bone tempering?"

"The techniques include charging up energy, releasing it, stepping into the air, and explosive footwork, but these all only utilize energy itself," Qi Zongwu guided. "But imagine if you could integrate energy into your body, into your muscles and your mind?"

"You should have experienced that feeling when you face the Cloaked Rabbit; that's what it means for energy to flow into your brain."

Ye Bufan suddenly realized: "Then what does 'bone tempering' mean..."

Qi Zongwu nodded: "That's right. Just as the name suggests, bone tempering is about integrating energy into the bones to bring about a permanent improvement!"
