“Oh… Do I have to pay for that?”
“That… It was really expensive equipment! Damn it!””
Lin Xuan revealed an embarrassed smile as he said, “Oops?”
Luo Yan looked at the force-measuring device which was emitting smoke silently. In the next second, the water on the ceiling started to activate while the laboratory issued a shrill alarm. Numerous security guards rushed towards them with grim looks, after all, each piece of equipment in Fire Cloud Cave was the top scientific and technological product of Taixia Country. It was a great loss to lose one instrument.
A head security guard of mystic-rank entered the door with a swipe of his card, “Researcher Luo, hurry up and leave. We will deal with it here.”
Over 15 security guards immediately rushed over here. Closely after that, they pulled Lin Xuan and Luo Yan away from the scene of the accident and started the professional rescue work. In only 20 minutes, all the instruments were moved to the spare laboratory one by one, the head security guard at the peak of the mystic-rank ran over and reported to Luo Yan first.
“Researcher Luo, all the testing equipment has been moved to the backup laboratory. One of the dynamometers has been damaged. As for the other equipment, it hasn’t been affected. This is the receipt for this incident. Please fill out this form.”
Luo Yan took the receipt and filled it out as she said, “Okay, thank you. I will explain the cause of this incident to the school. Please submit the relevant surveillance footage.”
“Of course!”
The head of the security team at the peak of the mystic-rank smiled as he looked at the five-star review on the documents. He was overjoyed. He took the documents and turned around to leave. He had to find the footage from that incident and submit it to the school’s security department. However, as the Fire Cloud Cave was classified as a secret unit, he needed a certain level of authority to view the relevant footage. Therefore, he could only package the entire footage and upload it blindly.
“Let’s carry on with the testing.”
Luo Yan was very calm. Events like these happen every day in the Fire Cloud Cave. Accidents like today were considered minor, and it wasn’t as if some of the experiments never blew up the cave before. Other than the extremely perfect defense, there were three to five earth-rank powerhouses guarding it!
Compared to Luo Yan’s calmness, Lin Xuan was a little nervous. After all, it was his first time causing such a stir so he was not used to it. “Are you really okay?”
“Of course, I’m not okay. Other than reporting the cause of the accident to the school, we still have to apply for a waiver. The report is basically a formality. As for the rest of the testing… Please try not to break anything else…”
Seeing Lin Xuan’s dumbfounded expression, Luo Yan said with a smile, “This is very normal. Strength testing machines are usually used at the mystic-rank. At the earth-rank, the power is immeasurable. If a technology company wants to make its products bigger and stronger, then it must make its products suitable for everyone.
“Think about it. A dynamometer can measure ten thousand tons of strength and a force-measuring device can measure a hundred thousand tons of strength. Given the same precision, which one would you buy?
“Of course, that’s not the main thing. What’s more important is the high-end market and the star effect. All the students are potential top elites in Taixia Country. If you want to measure their strength, you have to have a higher limit. These companies work hard to reach a higher target for better accuracy.
“I was just spouting nonsense. I don’t really understand it either. You don’t need to understand it either. For us, we just need to focus on our own matters!”
To be able to spout so much nonsense in a go was considered a big feat!
The two of them started testing again. The strength category was temporarily put on hold. Speed and constitution didn’t seem to have any problems like the strength measuring device. However, the constitution was a major category, and it also involved various elements of resistance. After a whole round, he was mentally tired.
“Is there anything else? This test is too detailed!”
Luo Yan rubbed the parts of her arm that had just been electrocuted. Because the two major talent templates had been switched off during the test, she still felt a little numb. However, very soon, under the surge of vitality, the strange feeling disappeared and returned to its full form.
Luo Yan held Lin Xuan’s report and frowned as she read it over and over again. Finally, she raised her head in disbelief. “You’re not even a human anymore!”
The basic data was twice the average number of a mystic-rank ability user. When Lin Xuan activated the bloodline equipment, the data increased exponentially ninefold. His power increased twelvefold.
In other words, once Lin Xuan familiarized himself with the bloodline equipment and developed it to its peak, he would definitely become overpowering.
This was the qualification for only top-tier bloodlines. Zhu Yuan’s and Zhao Hao’s bloodlines had the potential of reaching this peak too.
“Shall we try the second bloodline equipment?”
“Yes!”
A fighting spirit erupted from Lin Xuan’s heart. There was no armor nor any weapon, but witchcraft patterns. Streaks of black, red, blue, gold, and green covered Lin Xuan’s entire body. His heart had five colors converging.
A terrifying and strange drumming sound rang out. After listening carefully, Luo Yan realized that it wasn’t the drumming sound at all, but the sound of Lin Xuan’s heartbeat. Not only that, a gray color slowly began to appear on Lin Xuan’s body. Then, it turned black, started to shine with a metallic light, and finally began to flow.
Armed Color — Witch Body!
The Dragon Might and Armod Color merged with each other causing his power to surge up once again!
As Lin Xuan slowly opened his eyes, the temperature in the laboratory began to rise. A burst of flames appeared out of thin air and Luo Yan quickly started fumbling around again.
“Lin Xuan, quickly put it away! These instruments can’t hold on much longer!”
“Ugh…”
Hearing Luo Yan’s voice, Lin Xuan quickly put away his supernatural ability. The temperature in the laboratory dropped again. She quickly checked the instruments and patted her huge chest. “Thank goodness! Can you… control yourself and return to the basics? According to the law of conservation of energy, the bigger the phenomenon you create, the more energy will overflow. It means that you don’t have a good grasp of this realm. You need to practice more!”
“I just got it so of course…”
“Alright, then let’s move on to the next battle. I’ll help you master it quickly!”
