Inside the airtight underground ore warehouse, the doors were completely closed, preventing any outside light from getting in. Two rows of high-powered lights on the ceiling were all turned on, making the inside as bright as day.
In the center of the empty warehouse stood a huge mutated, four-legged sea monster, with a few stones scattered around it.
Lin Ruo stood a few meters away, watching the three people who were usually so composed in other situations now circling around the mutated sea beast with expressions of amazement. She slightly turned her eyes away and began to examine the warehouse.
The experts Ye Lin contacted didn't keep them waiting long. In just over ten minutes, the warehouse door was pushed open from the outside again. As soon as the experts entered the warehouse, they saw the mutated sea beast and rushed over, completely ignoring the three people who held high positions in the B City base. They even deliberately pushed the three of them aside.
A total of thirteen people came. These experts had their eyes shining and were studying the sea monster with their professional tools. Ye Lin understood why they were so excited.
"Sister Ruo, how much are you planning to price these fossils?"
Lin Ruo touched her ear; she really didn't need anything else. "Let's stick to the old rules: mutated beast corpses and crystal cores, in equal proportions, that'll be five thousand."
These things are top-notch research subjects for these experts, but for Lin Ruo, they are just a few stones she picked up casually and are of little use, so she didn't ask for a high price.
Ye Lin nodded in agreement immediately, "Give me three days. Once I have everything ready, I'll have someone deliver it to you."
Lin Ruo nodded, watching the experts lament their disappointment after learning she wouldn't sell the mutated sea monster, and then continue taking pictures of it.
Knowing that Lin Ruo didn't intend to sell the sea beast, an expert walked over and looked at Lin Ruo with a somewhat cautious expression, "Sister Ruo, can we extract some tissue and blood from this sea beast?"
Lin Ruo nodded. Taking some meat and blood from such a large sea beast wouldn't be a big deal; what they took wouldn't even be enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of the family members.
The experts went back happily, but despite trying many methods, including the newly developed light-energy cutting technology, they still couldn't cut through the mutated sea monster's skin or remove its scales.
Ye Lin: "..." How did this thing die with such thick skin?
Jiang Yue leaned closer to Lin Ruo and whispered, "Sister Ruo, this thing is so hard to cut, how did you kill it?"
"Just smash its brains." It wasn't anything important, and Lin Ruo didn't need to hide it.
After hearing the two whispering, Chen Yu looked at the mutated sea beast's head. There wasn't a single scratch on it. How did she manage to smash its brain? Her tone was so casual, as if she had just smashed a piece of tofu.
Finally, seeing that they were struggling, Lin Ruo used his mental power to create a tiny water blade in the air. This water blade was only the size of a fruit knife. As soon as it was formed, it stabbed into the body of the mutated sea beast in full view of everyone. It cut into the scales of the sea beast as easily as cutting tofu, and then flew to the experts.
A small piece of flesh, with a scale stuck in it, rested on a water blade less than the size of a palm.
The experts were speechless. The contrast was so stark that they felt quite ashamed.
But since they had already received the item, they couldn't let it go. They turned around, grabbed a professional container, and put the item away. The moment the flesh left the water blade, the water blade disappeared.
Chen Yu, standing to the side, looked at the small water blade. He had been guessing the sea beast's level before, thinking it was either level seven or eight. Now that Lin Ruo could break through the sea beast's defense with just a small water blade, her level was either level eight or nine, or possibly even higher.
Thinking of the scene where Itef, the only person in the world to have reached level six, died at Lin Ruo's hands, he looked at Lin Ruo with a solemn respect. It turned out that her strength had far surpassed theirs.
After they finished, Lin Ruo used her mental power to store the huge sea beast into her spatial storage.
The experts wanted to reach out and touch it again, but suddenly missed. They turned around and looked at Lin Ruo with some resentment, but when they saw Lin Ruo's eyes, they immediately turned their heads away, their hearts pounding in fright. Clearly, the water blade had been quite powerful.
After putting the sea beast away, Lin Ruo said to Jiang Yue, "Let's go. Contact me when everything is ready."
Jiang Yue nodded, "Okay."
Then Lin Ruo's figure immediately disappeared from the spot, as if she had never appeared at all.
Chen Yu's gaze sharpened as he looked at the tightly closed warehouse door. Her abilities were becoming increasingly powerful, creating an insurmountable chasm between her and all other ability users.
Ye Lin walked over at this moment and said with some surprise, "How did she leave? We didn't even open the door."
Chen Yu's eyes darkened slightly. "That Itef's body can transform into countless flying insects, and Lin Ruo is a typical water-based superpower with a high level. It's not surprising that she has such an ability."
Ye Lin nodded, thinking it made sense. Lin Ruo's ability level was so high, and her mental strength was unfathomable. It was normal that she had some moves that they didn't know.
Based on what Chen Yu just said, he had even imagined Lin Ruo turning into water and leaving quickly.
Jiang Yue glanced at Chen Yu secretly, then turned back to communicate with the experts without saying another word.
