After leaving the base, Si Xu drove Lu Jiu home.

Lu Jiu was thinking about how to find out about the magic crystal marrow all the way. Before he could speak, Si Xu spoke first.

"Did Jiang Ge go to your place for lunch at noon?"

Lu Jiu was thinking about other things, and answered casually, "Yes."

Si Xu didn't say anything else.

Lu Jiu glanced at Si Xu, "Can I ask a few questions? If it involves confidential information and I can't answer it, you can tell me."

Si Xu: "Okay, what do you want to know?"

Lu Jiu turned sideways and looked at Si Xu's profile, "How many magic... unknown energy crystals does the 'Special Security Department' have?"

If there are extra ones, can you give them to him evenly? He can exchange things.

There are many good things in Lu Jiu's hand, any one of which can make a sensation in the world.

Si Xu said: "Only one."

Lu Jiu: "..."

Over, one is definitely not a good thing, but if there are two, as long as his chips are attractive enough, he may be able to get one in return.

Lu Jiu probed: "This unknown energy crystal is so unstable and will explode at any time. It's too dangerous. Have the higher-ups ever thought about canceling radiation training?"

Si Xu: "The unknown energy crystal in the underwater palace will explode. It is not ruled out that it has been affected by the underwater environment for many years, causing the unknown energy crystal to become unstable and thus explode. Currently, there has been no example of an explosion in the countries that own the unknown energy crystal."

Otherwise, not everyone would think that the unknown energy crystal is very stable, which is why it suffered heavy losses in the underwater palace.

Rujiu tossed and turned in his seat, trying to think of a solution. If he was asked to rob the magic crystal marrow from various countries, unless he thought his life was too long, the possibility of finding it in the sea was not great. If it could be found

, it would have been detected by others long ago, so why wait for him to find it. Rujiu asked the system: System, there should be magic crystal marrow in the Magic Sea Plane, right? Why don’t we go there and think of a solution? It’s too difficult here on Earth, and I’m afraid of being beaten to death.

[Before the destruction of the civilization of the Magic Sea Plane, the magic crystal marrow was hidden in the center of the mountains. Now the Magic Sea Plane is all sea water, and islands are rare. What are you going to think of? The energy collection system has a distance limit, and the existence of the magic crystal marrow can only be detected within a certain distance. 】

Rujiu pulled her hair in worry: Why not take the medicine to exchange it, do you agree?

[As long as the system and the existence of the Demonic Sea Plane are not exposed, I have nothing to disagree with. As long as you feel that you can still live to continue wandering, you can choose to take it out. 】

Lin Jiu: ...

Lin Jiu: Forget it, let’s go back and catch fish to accumulate magic points. If we can reach the sky in one step, we don’t expect too much, so let’s keep our feet on the ground.

[...]

[Actually, you can find a trustworthy backer and ask him to come forward to help you do this. It's not that dangerous if you hide behind the scenes and don't let anyone find out. 】

Lin Jiu: ...The backer you are talking about is you, the male god of the Demon Spirit Tribe, right?

The system almost twisted with pride.

[I have checked for you. There is a pharmaceutical company under the Mohong Group of the male god's grandfather. You can give the primary gene enhancer to them for research. Once the gene-enhancing drug can be produced, who will be guarding the dangerous magic crystal marrow? In the end, the magic crystal marrow will be yours.]

Rujiu: You are such a clever little ghost.

The system is proud.

Rujiu: What if you can't produce it?

[……]

[Then, then why don't you consider worshipping a god of luck to give you a lucky buff, make a fortune by drawing blind boxes, and then exchange the drawn drugs for magic crystal marrow?]

Rujiu: Thank you so much.

No one is a fool, but the magic crystal essence of sustainable development is used to exchange for one or several enhancement quotas. What is the difference between this and killing the goose to get the eggs?

"What are you thinking about?" Si Xu's voice suddenly came over.

"Thinking..." Lu Jiu stopped in time, "Thinking about what the lucky number is today."

Si Xu glanced at him and chuckled, "Have you thought about it yet?"

Lu Jiu's eyes rolled, "Can you tell me three lucky numbers?"

Lu Jiu is not a chieftain, and he does not expect the goddess of luck to favor him. He plans to borrow Si Xu's luck.

Si Xu casually said three numbers, "2, 7, 9."

Lu Jiu silently memorized them and planned to draw blind boxes according to these numbers when he returned home.

Si Xu sent Lu Jiu downstairs, but did not go upstairs, asking Lu Jiu to go back and rest early.

Lu Jiu ran home as soon as he got off the car. He wanted to go home to draw blind boxes.

Si Xu sat in the car and watched him. He did not start the car and leave the community until the lights of Lu Jiu's house came on.

He called Jiang Ge.

It was very noisy over there at Jiang Ge's place, and someone was singing and howling like a ghost.

Si Xu did not say anything, and waited until Jiang Ge was quiet before he spoke, "Did you go to the Magic Fish Shop today?"

"Yes, I went there and had lunch." Jiang Ge had drunk some wine and spoke with a lisp. "How are you? Did the date go well?"

Si Xu's voice became deeper. "Jiang Ge, do you know what you are saying?"

Jiang Ge had not yet realized the danger. "I am not drunk and I know what I am saying. I told you that you and Lu Jiu should keep a distance. I thought he seemed to have misunderstood you, so I explained it to you."

Si Xu found a place to park the car. He was afraid that he would hurt others and himself if he could not hold back. "What did you explain?" ?”

Jiang Ge: “Of course it’s impossible for you to like boys. In order to make him believe that you have no interest in him, I told him about how you were scared by a naked man in the hotel. Then he should believe that you have no interest in him…”

Si Xu closed his eyes, his voice was cold as ice, “Jiang Ge, you are dead.”

No wonder Xiaojiu was so abnormal tonight. He took the initiative to go to the base, knew about the mixed-race beauty, and asked why she liked him. I had never heard that she liked boys before... It turned out that the root cause was here.

“Why, why did I die?” Jiang Ge was a little unsure about his words.

Si Xu said in a deep voice: "Jiang Ge, Xiao Jiu and I are dating, and I was the one who pursued him. Do you think it's appropriate for you to say those things?"

Jiang Ge: "......???!!!!"

Jiang Ge: "......!!!!!!!"

Jiang Ge: "......"

Jiang Ge was sobered up by the shock, "Fuck! Are you serious?"

Si Xu: "Really."

Jiang Ge said "Fuck" countless times, and asked again without giving up, "Are you serious?"

Si Xu gave an affirmative answer, "Very serious, he is the one for me in this life."

Jiang Ge was silent for a long time, then he looked up at the sky, "Fuck! You are so fucking dishonest! You guys "Why didn't you tell me that you were together?"

Si Xu felt like smoking. "I wanted to wait until I was settled before telling you, but you did it to me. I finally got the guy, but you interfered. If I pursued him even though I didn't like the boy, what do you think he would think?"

If Lu Jiu was just an ordinary person, and someone like Si Xu took the initiative to pursue him, maybe it wouldn't be a big deal. The problem is that Lu Jiu has high-energy ingredients and the Magic Fish Shop in his hands, and now is the hottest time. If Lu Jiu misunderstands that Si Xu wants to use him and pursues him with ulterior motives, then it will be over.

Jiang Ge wiped his face, "I know, it's my fault, I will explain it to him clearly."

"No need, don't mention this matter again." Si Xu was not easy to coax people, so he couldn't make trouble again.

After a pause, Si Xu said again: "Don't talk nonsense in front of him. His growth environment is different from yours and mine. He lacks a sense of security. Don't let him worry anymore."

Jiang Ge blew his hair, "I know."

Jiu Jiu had washed himself clean, his long hair was blown dry and spread on his back. He was wearing plush pajamas, sitting cross-legged on the bed, looking very serious. He was going to start drawing blind boxes.

The first draw, 2.

Jiu Jiu clicked on the second treasure chest on the nine-square grid.

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained 5 primary gene enhancers.]

Lu Jiu: "..."

Lu Jiu shouted happily, and jumped up from the bed, screaming and wailing to vent his excitement.

"Hold on, hold on, there are two more chances!"

Lu Jiu warned himself, sat back on the bed, and adjusted his breathing.

The second draw, 7.

Lu Jiu clicked on the seventh treasure chest on the nine-square grid.

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained a space ring, which contains 5 cubic spaces, and the time in the space is constant.]

"Wow~~~"

Not bad, not bad!

It is larger than his fish pond and more convenient to use than the refrigerator in the super smart kitchen. He can use it secretly in the future.

There is one last draw.

Lu Jiu panted for a few quick breaths, then held his breath and concentrated...

The third draw, 9.

Lu Jiu clicked on the ninth treasure chest on the nine-square grid.

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the formula for the primary gene enhancer.] Lu

Jiu: “

!!!!” Lu Jiu:

“!!!!!!!”

Lu Jiu: “!!!!!!!!!!” Lu Jiu:

“Ah

...

Lin Jiu couldn't wait to open the recipe in the inventory to check, and then...

"Boom!"

Lin Jiu rolled off the bed and fell to the ground.

The system also went silent.

Lin Jiu: "What are these words? I don't know them!!!!"

[I know them! ! ! ! ! 】

Linjiu climbed back on the bed and continued to be excited, and soon realized that things were not that simple.

Even if he has the formula, he may not be able to make the potion. The civilization of the Demon Sea is far higher than the civilization of the earth. The technological development and equipment on the earth cannot keep up. There are materials in the Demon Sea plane that are not available on the Earth plane. So what can I do with this formula?

Lu Jiu was lying on the bed, his eyes were lifeless, "Tong, even if we have the formula, it's useless. We can't make it with our technological level."

[Host, don't pursue perfection too much. The upper limit of the primary gene enhancer is 10%, which is the level of civilization in the Demon Sea plane. Since the technological level of the Earth plane can't reach it, it's also good to be able to produce a 1% enhancement level. Host, do you think that compared to the dangerous, painful and slow radiation training, do humans want to be enhanced in one step?]

Lu Jiu: "Of course they want it."

[Host, what do you think the enhancement level of those enhanced people in the 'Special Security Department' has reached? 】

Lu Jiu: "How much?"

【I don't know about the others, I checked the man named Shi Shuqing, his current gene enhancement level is only 0.8%, those so-called natural enhanced people, the gene enhancement level is even lower, at most it will not exceed 0.3%. 】

Lu Jiu: "..."

Lu Jiu: "So low?!"

【How high do you think it will be? Don't think that 10% of the primary gene enhancer is very low, this is already the limit of what the primary formula can produce. If the Earth plane can't reach this level, then lower the requirements, it is definitely feasible. 】

Lu Jiu was a little tempted by what the system said, "What about the materials for the medicine?"

You can't let him go to the Demon Sea plane to find materials, he will be exhausted.

[If the host is willing to provide me with enough energy, I can transform the formula materials into materials that exist on Earth. I have many subsystems, as the host knows, and there are also subsystems that specialize in medicine.]

Jiu Jiu sat up and said, "You should have told me earlier if you had this function!"

[Even if I tell you, you may not agree. This transformation requires selecting materials with similar effects from the countless materials on the Earth plane. This is a big project and consumes a lot of energy.]

Lu Jiu said vigilantly: "How much does it cost?"

[Give me 100 magic points first. If it's not enough, I'll ask you for more.]

Lu Jiu: "..."

Lu Jiu took a breath, "You dare not ask for it

even if the lion doesn't!" [High investment and high return, you have to believe this.]

Lu Jiu: "What if there is no return? How are you going to compensate me?"

[The system does not bear the risk for the host. The benefits of success belong to the host, and the risks of failure should also be borne by the host.]

Lu Jiu: ...

You are really good at talking!

Lu Jiu tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. He was considering whether to take a gamble. If he won, he might have a lot of magic points. If he lost, all 100 magic points would be wasted.

Lu Jiu stared at his own magic points. He now had more than 400 magic points. Whether he used these 100 points or not, his magic points would not be enough to buy gene enhancers. If he won the gamble, he would have enough magic points to buy intermediate gene enhancers and blood purifiers.

Lu Jiu gritted his teeth and decided to take the gamble. Lu

Jiu: "I'll give you 100 magic points first. How long will it take to complete the transformation?"

[Host, take a nap. There should be a result tomorrow morning. 】

Lu Jiu: "Okay, I'll leave it to you. Use the magic points sparingly."

【……】

Lu Jiu couldn't sleep at first. He tossed and turned in bed for who knows how long before he fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already dawn. He immediately asked the system whether the formula had been converted

. 【The formula conversion was completed, consuming 92 magic points.】

Lu Jiu jumped up excitedly and quickly opened the inventory. Sure enough, he saw an extra formula inside.

Lu Jiu took it out and took a look. In addition to the words that Lu Jiu recognized, there were also many chemical formulas. The system clearly listed the derivation process, the reaction results of different materials, and the calculation method. As long as a professional takes a look, he will know the value of this formula.

[Earth materials do not contain magic essence and have low medicinal properties. Even if the medicine is made perfectly according to the formula, the strengthening effect can only be about 1%.]

Ru Jiu was already satisfied with 1%. You know, even Shi Shuqing only had 0.8%. As the deputy captain of a team, Shi Shuqing must be strong. One medicine can surpass Shi Shuqing's current strength. What else is there for Ru Jiu to be dissatisfied with?

Ru Jiu put the formula back into the inventory and got up early to rush to the store. With the app to queue, there were no customers waiting at the door today, and it seemed a bit deserted.

The Magic Fish Shop was already open, and Jiang Xiwen was alone in the shop.

A while after Ru Jiu arrived at the store, the part-time waiter arrived today. Both Cheng Cheng and Lin Han did not expect the boss to come so early.

Lin Han went over with a gossipy look, "Boss, do you want to know what happened next last night?"

Ru Jiu was busy in the kitchen and was in a good mood, "What? Next?"

Lin Han said, "It's about Zheng Yumo. After she returned to the base yesterday, she started telling people that Team Si selected Chang Beimu because Chang Beimu looked a lot like you, and Team Si allowed Chang Beimu to join the team because of their good relationship with you."

Ru Jiu's men didn't stop talking. No wonder Si Xu said last night that Zheng Yumo spread false rumors. So that's what happened.

Lin Han gloated, "She thinks of herself as an enhanced person, and is superior to the reserve and quasi-enhanced people. She lost to Chang Beimu in the competition last night because she ran out of energy. She refused to admit it. After drinking energy water, her energy recovered a little. She went back to the dormitory to find trouble with Chang Beimu, but was pinned to the bed by Chang Beimu and had her hair shaved off. Hahahaha... I heard from other female team members that Zheng Yumo cried bitterly and hid in the dormitory and didn't dare to come out to see anyone. Hahaha..."

The corners of Lu Jiu's mouth also rose.

Lin Han found that the boss was in a good mood today, and asked bravely: "Boss, what is your RT value?"

He stayed in the training room for almost an hour last night, and there was no reaction at all.

Lu Jiu shook his head, "I don't know."

The radiation training room might not be effective for him.

Before lunch time, Liao Tingyue brought Liao Yuan to look for him again.

Liao Tingyue waited for a long time but received no call, so he had to come here

in person, "The test results should be out, right?" Lu Jiu's men kept working, "It's out."

Liao Tingyue: "What do you think? We didn't lie to you, did we? You are Liao Tingwang's child."

Lu Jiu leaned on his knife and looked at them, "So what if we are parents? My mother has divorced him, and he has married someone else and had children. I have nothing to do with the Liao family, so you don't have to come again."

Liao Tingyue and Liao Yuan were both shocked. The information prepared by Liao Tingyue deliberately blurred the matter of Lu Jiu's mother. If Lu Jiu was willing to return to the Liao family, the Liao family could give Lu Jiu the identity of an illegitimate child. Now it seems that it is not that if they didn't say it or concealed it, Lu Jiu would not know, on the contrary, Lu Jiu seemed to know it very clearly.

Rujiu admired their expressions, "You deliberately didn't mention my mother, do you want me to take the blame for someone else's illegitimate child status?"

Liao Yuan: "......!!!"

Liao Yuan: "Ruijiu! Who are you talking about as an illegitimate child?!"

Rujiu glanced at him, "Whoever agrees is the one I'm talking about."

Liao Yuan was so angry that his expression twisted, "My mother is the wife my father married openly, who is your mother? There wasn't even a wedding, and she coaxed my dad to get a marriage certificate with her, but you don't even look at her status, is she worthy of entering the Liao family?!"

"Liao Yuan! Shut up!" Liao Tingyue tried to stop him.

"Go to B city and ask, who doesn't know that my mother is Liao Tingwang's wife! Who knows you and your son? You are the mistress and the illegitimate child!" Liao Yuan's voice was loud, and Jiang Xiwen, Cheng Cheng and Lin Han all heard it.

"Only the real mistress and the illegitimate child would repeatedly emphasize that they are not mistresses and illegitimate children! Look at how ridiculous you look, you shamelessly come to me to go back to the Liao family, and you are eager to prove that you are not an illegitimate child. If you care so much about your identity, why do you come to me? If I don't go back to the Liao family, wouldn't you just be the descendant of the Liao family that you are proud of?"

Jiu Jiu said: "Liao Tingwang didn't give my mother a wedding. After coaxing my mother to get the marriage certificate, he has been hiding the news that he is married. This is his own fault. I have reason not to visit him! And since you Liao family look down on my mother, why bother to rush to recognize her now?!"

Liao Yuan stared at Jiu Jiu with a full smile, "Since you are my father's child, do you think it will be okay if you don't visit him? He has been lying in bed for 20 years, living in a high-end ward, and hiring the most professional people to take care of him. It has cost a lot of money over the years. Didn't you claim that Did your mother divorce my father? It just so happens that even after the divorce, you still have support obligations. It’s not too much for you to pay half of the expenses over the years,

right?” Lu Jiu sneered, “You want to settle support obligations with me, right? Then how about we also settle the accounts of the past years? If we dig too deep, maybe even your mother and the entire Zhou family will not be spared. Are you sure you want to settle with me?”

Liao Yuan said angrily, “What do you mean? !”

Lu Jiu: “Go home and ask your mother what I mean and you’ll know.”

Seeing that the matter had fallen through, Liao Tingyue did not stay long and left with Liao Yuan.

What Lu Jiu said made Liao Tingyue suspicious. What happened that year was indeed too coincidental. Lu Jiu had just returned to the Liao family for a month and something happened. No one would believe him if he said there was no inside story.

Liao Tingyue and Old Master Liao knew what was going on. They just pretended not to know and did not pursue the matter. They just pretended that there was no such child.

What shocked Liao Tingyue was that Lu Jiu seemed to know something.

He did not dare to act rashly and could only go back and discuss with Old Master before making plans.
