Chapter 379 Demonized Leech
The next day, Meng Qingyin and her group of five arrived at the Tower of Babel once again.
Lu Cheng's gaze fell on Qin Jiu's face, and he found that her complexion was rosy and there was nothing unusual about it.
He wondered, could it really be because of those demonized leeches?
Tang Mian: "Is everything ready? We're about to go to the forty-sixth floor."
The forty-sixth floor is the area where the demonized leeches reside.
Yesterday, Meng Qingyin shared her speculations about the unusual behavior of Qin wine, and everyone unanimously decided to test it out today.
If it really was caused by those mutated leeches, then...
After that, the erosion of demonic energy can be completely eliminated.
Soon, the five were teleported to the forty-sixth floor of the Tower of Babel.
The sight of leeches crawling all over the ground gave one goosebumps. Meng Qingyin took out a glass bottle she had prepared beforehand and quickly picked up a few leeches with a long pole and threw them in.
Only then did the group launch an attack, quickly eliminating the demonized leeches on this level.
Keep scrolling, and an hour will pass quickly.
After leaving the Demon Tower, the five gathered at the entrance of the Tower of Babel.
Lu Cheng hesitated: "Are we really going to let this thing take a bite?"
Inside the glass bottle, five or six leeches clung to the bottle wall, motionless.
Meng Qingyin: "I'll give it a try. If you're scared, just wait for the results of my experiment."
Lu Cheng was genuinely scared, but he wasn't intimidated at all: "Wait a minute! Do you think a grown man like me would be afraid of these tiny leeches? Let me handle this!"
Meng Qingyin looked at him suspiciously: "Are you really capable?"
Lu Cheng chuckled pretentiously, "You underestimate me!"
Meng Qingyin decisively handed the bottle to him: "Then you can do it."
Lu Cheng felt goosebumps just holding the glass bottle.
But, faced with the four people's "eager" gazes, he gritted his teeth, poured out a leech, and placed it on his arm.
The leeches, which were originally motionless, quickly burrowed into the skin the moment they came into contact with it, and their bodies swelled to twice their original size.
The pain was bearable, but watching himself being sucked blood by leeches was truly terrifying for Lu Cheng.
He asked tremblingly, "Okay, okay?"
Meng Qingyin pulled the leech out of Lu Cheng's skin before it completely burrowed into his skin and put it into another clean bottle.
Lu Cheng felt completely exhausted, his legs trembling.
Qin Jiu supported him, and surprisingly refrained from mocking him.
Meng Qingyin asked Lu Cheng, "How are you feeling now?"
Lu Cheng was very honest: "My legs are weak."
I was scared.
That wasn't what Meng Qingyin wanted to ask. "I mean, are you feeling tired now? Is it the same as when you finish clearing the tower before?"
She looked at Qin Jiu again, "And Xiao Jiu, aren't you tired?"
Qin Jiu shook her head: "I'm not tired at all."
She felt as if her meridians had been opened, and she felt completely relaxed.
After experiencing it for a while, Lu Cheng's face showed excitement: "I'm not tired at all. I didn't expect this leech to actually work! Could it be that it absorbs the demonic energy in the blood while sucking it?"
Meng Qingyin's gaze fell on the leech that was full of blood. "That should be the case, but there's still something I don't understand. Xiao Jiu was bitten by the leech yesterday morning. If the leech sucked away the demonic energy in her blood, then why is she still so energetic now? This afternoon and today, there must have been new demonic energy entering her body."
Qin Jiu herself couldn't figure it out, "I don't know either."
Meng Qingyin: "Qin Feng has some knowledge of demonic energy. I'll give this leech to her and see if she can find the answer."
Tang Mian: "Give me one too."
Meng Qingyin looked at her, her face full of doubt.
Tang Mian explained, "Just being bitten once can dispel the negative effects of dizziness and weakness. I think this is a pretty good deal."
Meng Qingyin silently handed her the glass bottle.
Before long, Tang Mian also felt refreshed.
Meng Qingyin and Chen Leying should just have a bite themselves.
Back on the train, Meng Qingyin messaged Qin Feng: "I've made a major discovery about the Tower of Babel!"
Qin Feng immediately replied, "What major discovery? Never mind, it's hard to explain here. I'll come find you right now!"
Qin Feng arrived in a hurry just five seconds after the message was sent.
She was still holding a hammer in her hand, and asked eagerly, "What major discovery?"
Meng Qingyin took out the glass bottle.
Qin Feng's pupils constricted when he saw the leech in the bottle, and he took several steps back: "Leech? How come your leech is so big?"
Meng Qingyin: "These are the demonized leeches from the forty-sixth floor of the Tower of Babel. They've just been drinking blood, so they're a bit bigger."
"The major discovery you mentioned, could it be related to this thing?" Qin Feng's expression was indescribable.
Meng Qingyin: "That's right, I suspect these leeches can suck the demonic energy in blood—or rather, it's pretty much true."
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng immediately became serious and said, "You don't mind giving it to me, do you? I want to study it carefully."
The demonized leech can actually absorb demonic energy?
This is absolutely incredible.
“Of course I don’t mind. I was originally going to ask you to do the research anyway,” Meng Qingyin said. “But there’s one more thing.”
Qin Feng's attention was entirely focused on the leeches. "What?"
Meng Qingyin told Qin Feng about Qin Jiu's condition after being sucked blood by leeches.
“I suspect that the demonized leeches are not just about absorbing demonic energy,” Meng Qingyin said.
Qin Feng was very interested in this. "According to what you said, I think Qin Jiu's condition is like being 'immune to all poisons.' Of course, I don't mean poisons, but that demonic energy can't invade her body. If that's the case, then the research value of these demonized leeches is even more important."
Finally, she said seriously, "I will get results as soon as possible."
Meng Qingyin: "Thank you for your trouble."
Qin Feng joked, "You really are my nemesis. I've been busy researching more demonized equipment lately, and I'm already overwhelmed enough. You've given me this extra task."
Meng Qingyin sensed the teasing in her voice and said with a smile, "The capable should do more work."
Qin Feng shook his head, took the glass bottle, and left.
Meng Qingyin was very energetic at the moment, and glanced at the time; it was only a little past nine in the morning.
She messaged Fei Qiu: "How's it going on your end? Any progress?"
I'm an unlucky player: "No, I haven't seen any NPC teams at all. It's been a whole day. Have they stopped farming the tower lately?"
Mengmeng: "Take it slow, they'll definitely go."
...
Here, Zhang Yan, dressed in a tuxedo and holding a bouquet of beautiful roses, teleported to Lear's house.
He meticulously groomed himself in front of the mirror, striving for perfection in every single strand of hair.
He has been anonymously sending various meals to Leah these past two days, so her attitude must have softened a bit, right?
It's time to surprise her.
