Sakurai Akira's smuggling route is too dangerous. Theoretically, there shouldn't be any accidents, but if something unexpected happens, it will be troublesome. It would be more convenient to find Su Enxi.
Finding Su Enxi is really convenient, but it's a pity she's not one of my own people... Lu Mingfei admitted that he had evil thoughts at this moment.
[...Su Enxi's power wasn't built in a day; it took her at least ten years to build it up...]
The system reiterated the importance of time: no matter how fast it goes, it still takes time. Even with exponential growth, things still need to proceed according to time; it's just a matter of speed.
……
When the alchemy matrix was inside, Sakurai Akira had thoughts of wishing he were dead, but when he heard Natsumi say, "You are free," he cried.
Natsumi said to him: "Everything is successful, everything is successful, and everything is free." (All your work has been successful, you are free.)
Seeing Sakurai Akira, a grown man, shed tears, Xia Mi was also filled with emotion and asked Lu Mingfei, "Have you seen 'The Shawshank Redemption'?"
"Never seen it." Lu Mingfei, who had just logged on, shook his head directly, behaving very much like a straight man.
System: [...Xia Mi clearly has something to say. You can ask, "What is she talking about?"...]
Lu Mingfei: ...System, why aren't you analyzing this faster? Is it too late for me to fix this now?
Seeing Lu Mingfei's straight-man appearance, Xia Mi's emotions, which she was about to express, were blocked... She calmed herself down.
Lu Mingfei followed up with, "What were you talking about?"
"It's hard to say if you haven't seen it. It's actually a pretty good movie. Boss, you can check it out if you have time."
Xia Mi looked at Sakurai Akira and asked, "Now, what about him?"
Lu Mingfei also looked at Sakurai Akira, who seemed to have suddenly fallen ill, and said, "We will test the stability of his bloodline in the next few days, and check the damage to the alchemy matrix after a while."
The alchemical matrix needs to be sustained for at least six months to be considered truly successful.
Over the past few days, the first micro-alchemy matrix has not shown any noticeable damage.
Based on previous failures, the system deduces that the current micro-alchemy matrix can be maintained for at least a month.
How long it can be sustained remains to be seen, as there are no precedents to follow and it relies purely on system analysis.
The system is currently analyzing a pattern similar to a gravity dam, where the alchemy matrix would become increasingly stable under normal circumstances, provided it is not subjected to external attacks.
Once we have the living materials, we can start experimenting.
"What if it succeeds? Could we go to Japan to recruit more people?" Xia Mi looked at Lu Mingfei's face. The two had previously discussed what would happen if Sakurai Akira's treatment was successful, and what about the charity school Sakurai Akira mentioned…
She knew that this company was truly aiming to grow big and strong. Others might talk about slaying dragons for fun, but Norton's dragon slaying was driven by real purpose and tangible interests.
With Akira Sakurai as an example, if you want to recruit people, you should definitely go to Japan.
Although Sakurai Akira's origins are mysterious, and it's unclear whether Norton secretly arranged it, that doesn't prevent him from leading the way to Japan to rescue his suffering compatriots.
"We can only go to Japan to check on the situation there first," Lu Mingfei said. "However, we can't take action in the short term because the Sheqi family's bloodline is that of the White King."
"The White King's bloodline?"
Xia Mi's face showed shock. "You mean the White King, the one from the Dragon Dynasty who is the Executive Vice President of Earth, the White-Robed High Priest, second only to one dragon and above all others, the other pole of the Black and White Royal Era—the White King?"
Does the White King have so many titles? Lu Mingfei didn't quite understand, but the titles Xia Mi mentioned did indeed match the White King's identity.
There was nothing to hide about the Snake-Headed Eight Families from Xia Mi, and after hearing about the situation in Japan, Xia Mi's expression turned serious, "The mixed-race people in Japan are actually of the White King's bloodline..."
“Yes,” Lu Mingfei said, “So this matter must be carefully considered.”
"If we're going to Japan, passport application..." Xia Mi also fell into the same blind spot as Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei flashed a bright white smile and corrected her thinking: "We're going there to cause trouble, not for tourism. Leaving entry information will only cause us trouble."
Chapter 84 Reversing Heavenly Gang - Xia Mi
Upon learning that the experiment on Sakurai Akira had been successful, Chu Zihang immediately ran over to check on the situation.
Looking at the reborn Sakurai Akira, his eyes were full of eager anticipation as he looked at Lu Mingfei. He didn't say anything, but it seemed as if he was repeatedly emphasizing, "I want it too."
According to the rating obtained from Su Enxi, Chu Zihang, who was almost the only male god of Shilan Middle School, almost fell to the bottom of the social hierarchy in terms of bloodline—his bloodline was only grade B.
This B-rank designation is based on his high bloodline purity and the presence of the high-risk Word of Power "Monarch's Flame," so his dragon blood percentage is actually quite low.
This is also why his release of the Sovereign Flame failed, lacked follow-up power, and was out of control.
If he wants to gain greater physical strength and a more powerful "Monarch Flame", the only way is to increase the purity and proportion of his bloodline.
The successful experiment on Akira Sakurai has paved the way for the path he wanted to take.
Although it's still unknown to what extent he can control the dragon blood, Sakurai Akira's dangerous hybrid status, coupled with the injection of the dragon blood awakening potion, definitely means he has a higher proportion of dragon blood than Chu Zihang currently does.
Facing his pleading gaze, Lu Mingfei leaned down and whispered in his ear, "The experiments on Sakurai Akira are mostly experimental. Whether they are stable or what dangers they pose are still unknown. We need to observe him for a long time and conduct more live experiments to determine the results."
"Go to Japan to capture those dangerous hybrids and experiment on them?" Chu Zihang immediately understood.
"Correct."
"When to set off."
"The situation in Japan is somewhat complicated..."
After telling him about the situation in Japan, Chu Zihang pondered for a moment and asked, "What's the difference between the White King bloodline and the Bronze and Fire King bloodlines? Is it more powerful?"
There is no precise statement about which of the four royal lineages is stronger, and the four thrones are of equal status. However, the White King is different; he is comparable to the Black King and, theoretically, stronger than the four thrones.
If that's the case, could the White King's bloodline be stronger than that of the Four Thrones?
Chu Zihang immediately thought of this problem.
"It's still unknown; there's no conclusion yet."
Lu Mingfei shook his head.
"Boss, when you go to Japan to gather information, you must take me with you," Chu Zihang said with a serious expression.
"Mmm." Lu Mingfei nodded.
How could I not bring my own things? Doing everything myself would be so tiring! Wouldn't that make me a boss for nothing?
……
The New Year's Day holiday has arrived as scheduled.
After Sakurai Akira's bloodline stabilized, he observed for two days that the miniature alchemical matrices that absorbed the power of dragon blood to suppress it still showed no visible damage.
So the system contacted the authorities to conduct a bloodline test for Sakurai Akira, so that he could get a green-label identity and a passport.
As for the little girl Panpan... the system sent her to assist Su Enxi in investigating the matter of the dragon blood crystal before the New Year's Day holiday.
After clearing away all obstacles around me that might hinder my trip to Shanghai, the system was rapidly typing on the keyboard the night before my departure.
Meanwhile, Lu Mingfei was thinking about going to Shanghai with Xia Mi tomorrow.
It wasn't my first time traveling, but it was my first time going alone with a girl, and an extremely beautiful one at that...
Is it a workplace unspoken rule that you are the boss and Xia Mi is the employee?
"Madam, you don't want to lose this job, do you...?" Lu Mingfei's thoughts jumped around in an extremely illogical way.
Crouching low, Xia Mi quietly opened Lu Mingfei's door. In the dark living room, she didn't turn on the lights, but first listened to see if there was any movement in Lu Mingfei's room.
After confirming that there was no reaction from Lu Mingfei's room, she quietly crept to the door of Lu Mingfei's room.
The sound of turning the doorknob immediately alerted the system, which was typing on the keyboard, and made it turn its head to look at the doorway.
Because the living room lights were off, and due to the difference in light intensity, Lu Mingfei could only see through the crack in the door that it was pitch black outside.
His body tensed up, and the system was rapidly analyzing the situation.
Could it be an enemy, or some kind of dragon or hybrid that has come knocking on our door?
The door was suddenly pushed open, and the system shut its mouth the moment it saw Xia Mi. It almost knocked "Word of Power - Supreme" out of the system.
"Ta-da! It's me, boss. Didn't expect that, did you?" Xia Mi said, carrying a bag with a smug look on her face.
"What's wrong?" The system deactivated the alert.
Xia Mi said, "Boss, why do you look like you're facing a major crisis?"
Lu Mingfei was speechless. Even if I were in this dragon-slaying business, any ordinary guy living alone in a single room would be terrified of the door suddenly opening like that…
"Still writing? So diligent!" Xia Mi said, "Boss, don't you know what day it is today?"
"December 31, 2007 in the Gregorian calendar, the 29th day of the 11th lunar month, what's wrong?" The system stated both the Gregorian and lunar dates.
"Tomorrow is New Year's Day! Tomorrow is 2008!" Xia Mi exclaimed, her eyes wide. "Tonight is New Year's Eve!"
"Oh, New Year's Eve..." the system immediately realized.
[...Xia Mi's bag contains roast duck? Beer? ...She's most likely here to spend New Year's Eve with the host... We suggest the host discontinue the hosting service...]
Seeing this analysis, Lu Mingfei felt a little dazed. New Year's Eve... seemed like a very distant concept.
Although it was the Gregorian New Year, Xia Mi actually thought of spending New Year's Eve with him... A feeling of being valued and cared for rose in Lu Mingfei's heart, warming his heart.
However, something seems a bit off. Xia Mi's initiative seems to be going against the natural order.
He was the one who coveted the commemorative significance of Xia Mi's first time, but in the end, Xia Mi took away the commemorative significance of his own first time...
Am I the prey? Could it be that Xia Mi is also following the system's path, trying to have her cake and eat it too...?
Pshaw, pshaw, pshaw... I can't wear these tinted glasses; I don't have the absolute calm and rational composure of a system.
However, Lu Mingfei thought to himself that this might not be the first time Xia Mi had rebelled against the Heavenly Gang.
What was it again last time?
Xia Mi looked at the dazed Lu Mingfei, leaned closer and asked with a grin, "Boss, are people so moved they've gone mad?"
"I'm sorry, although I'm very touched, I don't know what to say to you right now."
Lu Mingfei shrugged and said sincerely, "I've never experienced anything like this before."
"Then just say thank you next time." Xia Mi generously held up the large white bag in her hand and said, "Let's go eat on the balcony! I bought half a roast goose, as well as beer, peanuts, and snacks..."
"Thank you."
Lu Mingfei lowered his head and followed Xia Mi onto the balcony.
The moon is still very clear today, but the air quality seems to be poor, with only the lonely moon hanging high and no stars in sight.
