Happiness Community, underground parking lot, deep inside the conference room of the Irresponsible Fright Company of Calamity.
Three Spiritual Energy items and two Alchemy potions, made according to the blueprints obtained from Da Chunyang Palace, were placed on the conference ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) table.
"Expert, these are General-purpose Blocking Earplugs," Du Sixian pointed to a Spiritual Energy item that looked like deep red Bluetooth noise-canceling headphones and introduced it to Lu Yibei.
"Their main function is to block the effects of illusion-type Spells."
"We did a simple test, and they can completely block the influence of Spells with serial numbers thirty and below at the sa level, and also have so effect on Spells with serial numbers thirty to fifty at the sa level."
After speaking, she looked at Lu Yibei, her gaze lingering for a few seconds on the Magpie perched on her shoulder, its feathers glossy and its deanor majestic.
Lu Yibei had originally intended to leave Ju ng behind and co to Happiness Community alone to listen to the "new product launch conference" of the Irresponsible Fright Company of Calamity.
But Ju ng insisted on following, saying she wanted to see the Disaster's lair, acting completely unreasonable, like a naughty child lying on the ground and throwing a tantrum, demanding that their parent buy a toy. Lu Yibei couldn't refuse her and could only ask her to transform into a Magpie, reluctantly bringing her along.
Noticing Du Sixian's gaze lingering on Ju ng, Lu Yibei glanced at Ju ng out of the corner of her eye and explained expressionlessly, "Sixian, please continue. Don't mind this troubleso bird, just treat it as a useless decoration."
As soon as the words fell, a sharp pain suddenly ca from her shoulder.
Ju ng's small but incredibly sharp claws tightened, almost embedding themselves in Lu Yibei's flesh, making her silently gasp in pain.
It felt as if a boyfriend had said sothing wrong and was severely pinched on the tender flesh around his waist by his girlfriend.
""
Damn it! After watching that video, why has my tolerance for this Slly Girl inexplicably increased? I shouldn't have watched the video Coat recorded!
Now that I've watched it, what can I do? I can only indulge her a bit! Lu Yibei thought.
Hearing Lu Sixian's explanation, Du Sixian nodded thoughtfully, withdrew her gaze from Ju ng, picked up the next Spiritual Energy item, and continued her introduction.
"Expert, this is Type A Spiritual Energy Circuit Inflatable Armor. Each piece only weighs 527g, but when Spiritual Energy is injected, it has defensive power no less than composite steel plates, and the Spiritual Energy consumption is very low. A D-level urban legend can sustain consumption for an hour, and a C-level urban legend can even sustain it for a full day."
Lu Yibei, ""
That Old man Zhang Huainan is indeed cunning and sly. These three blueprints he gave are completely useless to ! What Spiritual Energy item has better resistance to illusion-type Spells than Wang Quan (Royal Authority)?
And what Spiritual Energy item has defensive power better than the full-coverage Lingtai Pure Karma?
Lu Yibei thought, tilted her head, and asked Du Sixian, "You just said Type A Spiritual Energy Circuit? Does that an there are also Type B, C, D, and E?"
"Mhm!" Du Sixian nodded and explained, "Expert, yes, over the past two days, we have analyzed and researched all the Spiritual Energy item blueprints you brought back. So far, we have analyzed a total of five different Spiritual Energy circuits that can operate independently."
"We don't know the original nas of these Spiritual Energy circuits, so for now, we can only refer to them with English letters."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yibei frowned, confused, "That's not right! Why five kinds?"
I only brought back three Spiritual Energy item blueprints, how did you analyze five Spiritual Energy circuits? This sounds like choosing D from options A, B, and C, which is a bit ridiculous! Lu Yibei thought.
"Expert, it's like this, those three Spiritual Energy item blueprints contain a total of twelve different Spiritual Energy circuits," Du Sixian explained.
"We actually analyzed seven, but only five can operate independently."
"We also analyzed five thods for solidifying Spells, but currently, only one can be successfully crafted."
"Oh, I see." Lu Yibei nodded.
Understood! So, the Spiritual Energy items made from the blueprints given by that Old man Zhang Huainan each contain several Spiritual Energy circuits and solidified Spells, right?
It's like a mini-ga included in a large ga; when separated, it can beco a standalone ga.
Lu Yibei thought, pointed to the three Spiritual Energy items on the table, looked at Du Sixian, and asked, "So, these three are not complete Spiritual Energy items?"
Seeing this, a hint of embarrassnt flashed across Du Sixian's face. "Sorry, Expert, this is the highest level we can currently produce."
After a pause, she added, "However, you don't need to worry. We have basically mastered the remaining Spiritual Energy circuits as well. We should be able to produce complete Spiritual Energy items within a month and won't affect your plans."
"I don't think it's necessary to make them complete?" Lu Yibei waved her hand.
"We can sell them just like this!"
"But..." Du Sixian opened her mouth, wanting to say sothing, but before the words ca out, she suddenly thought of sothing and her eyes gradually lit up.
"Do you an to sell these simplified Spiritual Energy items first, and then launch new products after a while?"
She understood this strategy. It's like many electronic products; even though more powerful and efficient technology has been developed, manufacturers release it in many stages, through several generations of products, before fully launching it.
Upon hearing this, Ju ng's small eyes glared fiercely at Lu Yibei and then fiercely scratched her shoulder with her claws.
She must be thinking this way, right? That despicable thing,
Too wicked!
"That's roughly the idea." Lu Yibei pursed her lips.
"However, this isn't a one-ti deal for us, so it's better to be more honest!"
"What I an is, we will sell these simplified Spiritual Energy items and clearly tell custors that this is just the basic model. In addition, there are several levels of upgraded models available for selection. If they want to purchase the upgraded model, they will..."
"Have to pay more!" Du Sixian echoed excitedly.
Ju ng, "???"
Wait, can torture be contagious? Contagious through the retainer mark? ---
After staying in the Happiness Community underground parking lot for about two hours, Lu Yibei left Happiness Community a little after eleven in the morning, urged by Ju ng.
Taking a taxi back to Jingyi Apartnt Complex, Lu Yibei took out her phone and sent a ssage to Lin Nian while the taxi was crossing the city.
Gu Qianqian: "Miss Lin, I need your help with sothing?" Lin Nian: "Tell !"
Gu Qianqian: "It's simple. Help spread a ssage. Just say that during the Pink Fluffy Rabbit incident a while ago, soone is suspected of taking advantage of the chaos to get a batch of Spiritual Energy items from Da Chunyang Palace, and they might flow into the black market recently."
Lin Nian: "Wow, playing this big? Aren't you afraid of being discovered by people from Da Chunyang Palace?"
Gu Qianqian: "What if they find out? Did I say for sure that the items ca from Da Chunyang Palace? And who knows that I'm the one selling them? What's more, I'm using Da Chunyang Palace's technology anyway."
Lin Nian: 【/thumbs up】 Don't worry, I'll handle this for you today! Also, I have a lead on that matter you asked to investigate last ti."
Gu Qianqian: "Oh? Is 'Old Man Rolling 6' finally starting its first test? Or has soone finally found the exact reason why the night is getting longer?"
Lin Nian: "Neither. Besides, don't you think the gap between those two things you ntioned is a bit too big?" Gu Qianqian: "Not at all."
Lin Nian: "Alright, it's about that matter you asked to investigate last ti, about who stole so of the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power. 【Picture】 【Picture】"
What Lin Nian sent to Lu Yibei were two news screenshots. The reports roughly stated that thirty-three people had mysteriously disappeared in the cities around Kasuga Grand Shrine and were still missing.
R Country is known as having "eight million gods," and while most urban legend are not high in Spiritual Energy fluctuation level, their numbers are shockingly large. It's not strange for over thirty people to disappear in a city in a short period.
However, the strange thing about this news was that the disappearances of these thirty-three people almost all occurred between three to five hours before the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's rampage.
Lin Nian: "While browsing Moon Saring, Wind Criticizing last night, I happened to hear from an R Country Psychic that so local Psychic witnessed several of the missing individuals being forcibly abducted from their hos by local gang mbers."
Lu Yibei stared at her phone screen, thought for a mont, and replied, "So, those missing people weren't affected by the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's disturbance, corrupted and devoured, but were abducted by local gangs through so ans, having known the approximate ti of the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's rampage in advance?"
Lin Nian: "That's what I think too."
Gu Qianqian: "Have you investigated the background of the local gangs that abducted them?"
Lin Nian: "Do you think local gangs couldn't be that resourceful to know in advance that the Pink Fluffy Rabbit was about to rampage?" Gu Qianqian: "Exactly."
Lin Nian: "I thought so too, so I already started investigating before telling you. 【Picture】 【Picture】"
The pictures showed the background information of the local gangs that Lin Nian had investigated. From the information, there were five local gangs involved in the abductions, and there were many conflicts between them. The Spiritual Energy organizations involved behind them were also completely different.
It looked as if it was just a pure coincidence.
Lin Nian: "This is just a part of it. If you hadn't contacted just now, I was planning to investigate more thoroughly before contacting you."
Gu Qianqian: "I understand. Thank you for your hard work. Will you spread the ssage later? You can hold off on the matter of the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power being stolen for a bit; safety is the most important."
Lin Nian: "Mhm, I understand."
Facts proved that although Lin Nian couldn't find information about those "lifeti series" events, she was still a very excellent intelligence agent most of the ti.
After reading the last ssage, Lu Yibei put away her phone and fell into thought.
She had previously guessed that if soone successfully stole the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power, the best ti would be during the period from the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's rampage until its Power was contaminated.
She just hadn't thought of the thod of theft before, and from the information Lin Nian collected, it was highly likely that the abducted people were the dium for the theft.
Otherwise, why would those local gangs abduct people? It couldn't be because of R Country people's bizarre fetishes, getting caught to film close-up motion capture videos, could it?
During that ti period, people affected by the Pink Fluffy Rabbit's Power erosion shouldn't have any particular characteristics!
What force could be controlling those local gangs from behind? Lu Yibei thought.
