Chapter 230 Unexpected
Meng Shiwan learned another important piece of information.
"Is the ability-enhancing fluid in the Chuangyuan Base produced by themselves?"
Tan Shaohua looked puzzled. "Otherwise, where else could it come from if it wasn't manufactured?"
This was beyond Meng Shiwan's expectations.
Last time, when the wind-elemental ability user who stole the black cube said that the ability enhancement fluid in the Chuangyuan Base had no side effects, Meng Shiwan wondered if someone else also had a system, so the ability enhancement fluid was produced by the system, and she was not the only person in the world who had a system.
Now that she knows the power-enhancing fluid is actually manufactured, it means her previous guesses can be overturned.
With current technology and knowledge, is it possible to produce an absolutely pure ability-enhancing fluid with no side effects?
She asked Tan Shaohua, "Do you have any with you? Take one out and let me see."
Tan Shaohua said helplessly, "You've blocked me; I can't use the space anymore."
Meng Shiwan glanced at him, bound him with vines, leaving only one hand exposed, and then removed the spatial cage.
Tan Shaohua stood there like a dumpling, a vial of power-enhancing liquid appearing in his hand. "Here, so you don't get wet in the acid rain."
Meng Shiwan was cautious and didn't get close to him. She used vines to wrap around the power-enhancing liquid and brought it to her. She used metal to form a small umbrella to shield herself from the acid rain and examined it in her hand.
From the packaging to the liquid color, it's exactly the same as the one produced by the system.
In that brief moment, the surrounding space rippled slightly. Meng Shiwan looked up and saw that both of them had disappeared, having been caught off guard by Tan Shaohua who had escaped.
Meng Shiwan sensed the spatial anomaly around her and flew out after the abnormal spatial blade. The two people who were hiding in the space and trying to escape were directly cleaved into pieces by the spatial blade and died beyond any doubt.
You think you can get away alive after provoking her? You're dreaming.
It's a pity that the spatial ability users' supplies are probably also trapped in the spatial rift and can't be retrieved.
Meng Shiwan looked at the familiar power enhancement liquid in her hand and wondered what was going on with the fact that the Chuangyuan Base had built a large underwater base before the zombie outbreak and even produced power enhancement liquid of the same quality as the one sold by the system.
Did the Creation Base know that everything that was happening would occur before the apocalypse even arrived?
Prepare in advance, even several years in advance.
From the very beginning, this Chuangyuan Base has been shrouded in mystery.
"I need to find an opportunity to visit the Chuangyuan Base; I might be able to get a lot of useful information there."
Meng Shiwan condensed wind wings and flew into the cave.
She asked the system, "Where did you get the power-enhancing fluid you sold me?"
The system replied, "I stored them in my spatial warehouse, what's wrong?"
Meng Shiwan then asked, "Where did the items you've stored in your spatial warehouse come from?"
The system muttered, "I don't know."
Meng Shiwan had already guessed this answer: "You know nothing. Tell me, what do you even know?"
system:……
Back in the cave, Wu Ming led the superhumans to repair the mountain and clear a path.
The cracks above the cave are too dangerous; they could cause a major problem if they collapse at any time. Earth-type ability users should reinforce what they can, and for areas that cannot be reinforced, it would be safer to simply demolish them.
The rubble outside also needs to be cleared to make a path.
We were all preparing to retreat, but now we have new work to do.
Seeing Meng Shiwan return, Ye Sangyu went up to her, "How is it? Is it resolved? Are you hurt? Who are those bastards? Why did they even blow up the mountain?"
Meng Shiwan glanced at the mountainside. "It's alright, it's already dead."
Ye Sangyu patted his chest, "That's good, those bastards are really ruthless."
Meng Shiwan walked into the cave and arrived at the location of the underground spring. The once empty cave was now filled with large rocks.
All the stalactites at the top fell down and landed in the pool.
The inside was so messy that there was nowhere to step.
The only saving grace is that the mountain above has no cracks, so the acid rain from outside hasn't seeped in and polluted the underground spring, and the spring water here is still usable.
To be on the safe side, Meng Shiwan used her earth-based abilities to reinforce and inspect the mountain above.
Then, using vines to wrap around the large rocks, they threw them all out through the gaps in the space.
After this cleanup, although the place is still dilapidated, it is much more spacious and tidy.
Meng Shiwan walked to the edge of the pool. The water level had risen to more than half, but many pebbles had polluted the water.
She simply used her spatial ability to remove all the water from the pool, then washed the pool again before settling down to wait for the water level to rise so she could store it in her spatial ability.
She just wanted to hoard some water resources, but one problem after another has arisen. She can't let another group of people come and try to kill her, and start another fight.
This mountain can't withstand any more disturbances; if it gets like this again, it might really collapse.
Wu Ming came over to inquire about the situation, "Are they from the Chuangyuan Base?"
Meng Shiwan took out a recliner from her spatial storage and sat down to rest by the pond. "Hmm, let's go snatch the black cube."
Wu Mingchou scratched his head, "What exactly does this Chuangyuan Base want to do? We don't even know what the black cube is for, why are they trying to steal it, and what use is it to them?"
"I don't know, I can't get an answer from them."
Meng Shiwan took the power-enhancing fluid and said, "Take a look at this."
Wu Ming took it and examined it closely. "Isn't this just the ability enhancement fluid? What's wrong with it?"
Meng Shiwan pointed out, "This is the ability enhancement fluid from the Chuangyuan Base."
Wu Ming looked it over again, "How come it's exactly the same as yours?"
Meng Shiwan pondered, "The problem lies here: why is the ability enhancement fluid from the Chuangyuan Base exactly the same as mine, and why was this ability enhancement fluid made by the Chuangyuan Base?"
Wu Ming was completely bewildered. "What are you talking about? Didn't you make yours? Otherwise, where would you have gotten it from?"
Meng Shiwan: ...
"Never mind that. How's the research on the ability-enhancing fluid at the seed base going? Is it safe to drink?"
If the ability-enhancing fluid can be made, why can't she?
If she could create it, wouldn't she not need to buy it from the system and could save some crystal cores to expand her farm?
Most importantly, if anything happens in the future, being able to make the power-enhancing fluid myself is more reassuring than relying on the system to buy it.
She always felt that the system was not simple, but every time she asked it, it was a clueless idiot who knew nothing.
Wu Ming sighed, "It can be made, but it can't be drunk. There are too many impurities, which are very harmful to the human body."
Meng Shiwan asked, "Where did the problem occur? The equipment? The personnel? The methods?"
Wu Ming said, "The method for making the ability enhancement fluid left by Meng Qingyue is not very clear, but it is very useful. The problem now is that we lack talent and equipment, so we just can't make the same quality as what you sell."
Meng Shiwan: ...
Well, asking is pointless, it's all in vain. She needs to think of another way.
