"The power of a naughty child!"
Jiang Yuan, who was walking behind Ning Yanlan on the stairs, teased her.
"How does it feel to share a room with you for three consecutive days?" Ning Yanlan asked Jiang Yuan with a grin.
"What else would you dare to think about? Of course, I'd dare to think about that, and that, and that too!" Jiang Yuan deliberately adopted a lewd tone.
"I was just saying my thoughts, not asking if you dared to think about it!" Ning Yanlan felt like punching this guy.
"What do you mean? Isn't this great? It saves me from sneaking into your room late at night!" Jiang Yuan said casually.
"You..." Ning Yanlan was speechless. Since when have men become so blatant in their lewd behavior? "I'm not that kind of person. I was just led astray by Xu Lian that night!"
That night, to be honest, if Ning Yanlan hadn't been so captivated by that voice, she wouldn't have done something so outrageous. Now, just thinking about what she did with Jiang Yuan makes her want to crawl into a hole.
"What are you thinking? I'm not lusting after your body!" Jiang Yuan shook his head. "It's just that I'm lusting after the Holy Spirit Source!"
Ning Yanlan was furious upon hearing this. What did she mean by "not lusting after my body"? Who was it that was panting and whispering sweet nothings that night? Who was it that couldn't control themselves when they were deeply in love? "Are you sure you only lusted after the Holy Spirit Source?"
"OK!" Jiang Yuan said without hesitation.
"Are you sure?" Ning Yanlan asked again, drawing out her words.
"I'm sure!" Jiang Yuan's tone softened for only a moment, but then hardened again.
Ning Yanlan placed her hand on Jiang Yuan's waist and said with a mischievous smile, "Are you really sure?"
"..." Jiang Yuan looked down at the hand that was about to pinch him, and then muttered to himself, "Maybe, I was just a little bit tempted!"
"Just a little bit?" Ning Yanlan was very unhappy. Sure enough, all men are the same. When it comes to a critical moment, they are truly 'licking dogs,' but afterwards he actually denied it to the death. That was too much.
"Oh, I remember now, didn't we just open a mithril core? Quick, let's go and study it!" Jiang Yuan dashed into the room.
"Fool, that room!" Ning Yanlan chuckled from behind.
"Uh, my eyesight isn't very good!" Jiang Yuan silently withdrew and then slipped into another room.
"Fool!" Ning Yanlan laughed and scolded.
When her comrade-in-arms sacrificed his life, Ning Yanlan stayed here for half a month to help Li Xiang through her depression. Li Xiang also regarded her as family, so the room was always reserved for her.
"Jiang Yuan, can't you take a shower before lying on the bed?"
As soon as Ning Yanlan entered the room, she saw Jiang Yuan, who was covered in dirt, lying comfortably on the bed. At that moment, Jiang Yuan was playing with the mithril core!
"You need to get used to this lifestyle. You'll be living a life on the edge from now on. Let me help you get used to it in advance!" Jiang Yuan said casually.
"It's okay if it's dirty outside, but it's different at home!" Ning Yanlan pulled Jiang Yuan up forcefully. She looked at the bloodstains on her sheets and said speechlessly, "Look, you've torn my new sheets for the first time!"
Jiang Yuan: "..."
"It's already dirty, I'll wash it next time!" Jiang Yuan lay back down, placed the core on the bed, and then turned to Ning Yanlan, asking, "Yanlan, where can I view the data on the USB drive?"
Ning Yanlan reluctantly lay down on the bed and said, "The circuits here are almost completely destroyed, so naturally the power hasn't been restored! Currently, only the main camp in South City provides power at certain times. However, it's only been a few days since the apocalypse, and many laptops still have some battery left. We can go to the computer mall and find any computer that still has power to read the data from the USB drive!"
"But we need to hurry, I need to use the USB drive to redeem my friend after I've seen what's on it!" Ning Yanlan sighed.
“I have a feeling that if you give them the things, they will kill you to silence you!” Jiang Yuan said abruptly.
Ning Yanlan bit her lower lip lightly and said slowly, "Then I can't just watch her die!"
"Let's take it one step at a time! Let's activate the core first!" Jiang Yuan's gaze fell on the third-tier mithril core.
"You open it!" Ning Yanlan showed no interest; she preferred the surprise and delight of opening the box.
Jiang Yuan naturally wouldn't refuse. Even without using the treasure-hunting positioning, his probability of getting good stuff from the core was far higher than that of ordinary people. This was a permanent benefit that the Heavenly Eye brought him.
Jiang Yuan took out the two remaining Tier 3 Holy Spirit Stones and put them into the Mithril Core. This time, he didn't have high hopes for the treasures that would appear, because he had already used his Heavenly Eye to identify them beforehand. Most likely, the treasures that would appear wouldn't be the ones he wanted, and there were no unknown items in this core.
Ning Yanlan still maintained a sense of novelty, hiding various things when opening treasure chests.
Jiang Yuan found this scene amusing. If she knew that opening the treasure chest wouldn't change the items inside the core, wouldn't she be very upset?
However, this is just wishful thinking. In the apocalypse, it's too difficult to find a partner who won't scheme against you. Compared to having a powerful time bomb by your side, it's far better to have a naive and innocent girl. Besides, Ning Yanlan is not a naive and innocent girl. This woman's potential is the best among everyone he has met in the past few days, including himself.
After all, he hasn't awakened his spiritual power yet, so frankly, it's not his place to look down on Ning Yanlan.
"Huh!"
Ning Yanlan let out a soft exclamation, then looked up at Jiang Yuan and said, "It seems like something strange has happened this time!"
"Are there still strange things now? Shouldn't we be used to them?" Jiang Yuan said with a faint smile.
“That’s true!” Ning Yanlan reached into the mithril box and took out a white sphere. “It looks quite like the Iron Heart you gave me!”
Upon receiving feedback from the Heavenly Eye, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but look at Ning Yanlan with newfound respect, "You've certainly broadened your horizons considerably these past few days!"
