"Master, you're overthinking it. It's impossible. Fifth Gentle Poison is a demonic poison, unlike any man-made poison in the world."
"Demon poison, fox poison." Xinghe frowned. In her previous life, she was also a fox, but fox poison...
Foxes aren't poisonous at all, are they? Seriously.
"Galaxy!"
Xinghe had just reached the courtyard gate when Lixi ran over.
"How's it going? Did you get the leave approved?"
Before Li Xi even reached her, she hurriedly asked.
Li Xi ran a little fast and was a bit out of breath. "The dean won't let us go out at all."
"This is a matter of life and death, and he won't let us out?!" Xinghe was furious.
"The dean said we're just physicists, not biologists, and there's nothing he can do to help. To prevent us from dying, he forbids us from going out." Li Xi could understand the dean's desire to value talent. Unfortunately, the dean didn't understand Xinghe at all. They were indeed just physicists, but Xinghe was omnipotent.
Upon hearing this, Xinghe calmed down; she had been too impulsive.
"Xinghe, I'll cooperate with whatever you want to do." Li Xi knew her well; she would never sit idly by and wait for her fate.
"Come with me." Xinghe turned and walked towards their apartment.
Li Xi followed.
"Master, you've changed," the ring's voice suddenly spoke.
"What has changed?" Xinghe asked with a smile.
“In the past, you would have enjoyed watching them die in all sorts of ways,” instead of trying to save them.
"Little Jie, have you ever heard these two sayings?"
"Um?"
"The first line is 'husband sings, wife follows.' Since Ru Feng has decided to save the world, his wife will never sit idly by and wait for death."
"And the second sentence?" The ring felt a little stifled. The Gate of Life and Death—when did it take such a significant place in its owner's heart?
"For him, I am willing to love this world. As long as everyone is safe and sound, I will be at peace." Xinghe didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence before, but now she does.
Master, I'm willing to give everything for you. You are my dearest family. The ring didn't say these words aloud, but kept them in its heart.
Back in the apartment, Li Xi checked everything from top to bottom.
They found out how many cameras there were and told Xinghe.
Xinghe took out her computer, hacked into the Academy of Sciences' main monitoring system, and altered some of the images so that the people on duty in the monitoring room would occasionally see them moving around, while in reality, she completely blocked the monitoring system.
Li Xi doesn't have the skill of Star River, so she can only watch from the sidelines.
Xinghe took these things out last night, then took out a calligraphy brush and overshoes from the room, along with invisibility spray and a rope.
This invisibility spray was the result of her combining physics, chemistry, and biology. She only told the dean about the physics aspect, because she didn't believe they could break her invisibility spell.
"Star River, you're going to take another risk."
"There's no way around it. The Academy of Sciences is surrounded by infrared surveillance cameras. I'm invisible, but I'm not completely untouchable," Xinghe said as he put on his shoes.
"Is there any way to get me out of here?" Li Xi was worried about her, but they hadn't had time to make a second set of shoes and a calligraphy brush.
"Of course I do, you still have to help me." She was also afraid that if she was gone for too long, this guy would turn back into a lunatic, and then the Academy of Sciences would be in for a lot of trouble.
Li Xi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her say that.
Xinghe put on his shoes and handed him a pair of goggles, the kind that are tied behind his head.
"What are these for?" Li Xi asked, turning the goggles over and over.
“Don’t break it. Although we can see monsters, it doesn’t mean we can see all invisible ones. These goggles are to break my invisibility spray. If we wear them, we can see each other,” Xinghe explained.
"Oh, oh." Li Xi immediately stopped moving.
Xinghe sprayed the paintbrush and rope with the spray, then sprayed Lixi and herself.
"Li Xi, don't rush to put on your goggles. Can you still see me?" Xinghe trusted her spray, but she needed to confirm that she really couldn't see me.
"I can't see it."
"Turn around once, let me see if you can see it."
Li Xi walked around for a while, worried that she might not have seen it or know, and said, "I've walked around."
"The goggles in your hand have already given you away." Xinghe ruthlessly slapped him in the face.
Lixi...
Xinghe sprayed his goggles with mist, then sprayed his own, and then put them on.
"Xinghe, your spray is amazing." The mist disappeared as soon as it was sprayed. Li Xi looked up at Xinghe; she was now completely exposed, but it seemed as if she was surrounded by a layer of green light?
"Remember, when the green light turns red, our invisibility will be lost."
"I see."
Xinghe picked up the brush and rope, and pulled him outside.
The two arrived in front of a slightly lower wall. Xinghe waved his hand, threw out the calligraphy brush, and with a burst of energy, leaped up and flew up on the brush.
Once Xinghe Feidi was more stable, she skillfully tossed the rope towards Li Xi, tied it around his waist, and pulled hard. Li Xi was lifted into the air and flew to her side.
Xinghe grabbed the rope around his waist, and with a few light leaps in the air, they jumped over the wall.
The two landed, and Li Xi was about to speak when Xing He gestured for him to be quiet.
Li Xi nodded and put away the rope.
Xinghe put the brush away, patted his arm, and pointed in the direction they were heading.
The ring activated navigation mode, directing them to the nearest poisoned location.
Half a day later, they arrived at their destination.
This is a residential area, but it's basically empty. There are no pedestrians on the road, and no residents on the buildings.
However, with their eyesight, they could see that a grayish-black mist was swirling around the area.
"Demon poison." Xinghe frowned, pondering the antidote for demon poison he had seen before.
“Xinghe, I…” Li Xi had a strange feeling, as if something was about to burst out of her body.
Xinghe looked up and was startled.
Golden light emanated from Li Xi's body.
"God, yes, God can cure all demonic poisons!" Xinghe remembered.
“Master, besides the gods’ magic, their blood can also work. This time, the demonic poison contains many ingredients. In addition to taking Li Xi’s blood, you need to add other things to concoct a true antidote.”
Drain his blood...
Xinghe's eyes revealed rejection.
Li Xi understood everything from the look in her eyes.
"I am not afraid to sacrifice!"
Xinghe bit her lower lip, torn between her inner conflict. "Sacrifice isn't necessary, but it will cost you some blood."
"If it's just bleeding, then don't hesitate." Li Xi breathed a sigh of relief. He could accept any amount of blood loss as long as it didn't kill him.
"Master, as long as the water source is purified, the water itself is the antidote," the ring reminded you.
"That would be the best outcome, but how could I bring myself to hurt him even a little? It would be easier to drain my own blood than to let him bleed." This was Xinghe's biggest dilemma.
