Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 352 - 2: This Fishpond’s Cannon Fodder Is Contracted

"The original owner dedicated her entire life to the study of mysterious creatures. Therefore, you must continue her unfinished work, which is to acquire the secrets of rmaids and find the resources hidden in the deep sea.

The second task is related to the fact that, even if the original owner hadn’t died at the hands of the protagonist, she wouldn’t have lived much longer due to her physical condition. Thus, you must find a way to obtain a strong physique, lest you exhaust yourself before finding the resources and perish before the protagonist makes her move."

Jiang Lai indeed can feel the exhaustion of the original owner, but her will was strong, and her focus on work kept her from feeling the dizziness that cos from being at the brink of collapse.

But Jiang Lai can’t manage that.

Having just heard the tasks, she hadn’t had ti to listen to the skill extraction results when she passed out.

After waking up, she checked her watch.

It was shortly after midday the next day.

The knocking outside the door had continued, which was the only thing that kept Jiang Lai from sleeping further.

Since the original owner was always so focused on research and rarely managed other matters, apart from the offices preserving research results and monitoring footage, the rest of the institute allowed free movent of herself and the research personnel.

This is why the protagonist could always easily steal her access card and remain undetected.

Upon opening the door, four interns were standing outside.

"How are you, teacher? Is there a problem?"

The one at the forefront, Gao Qingjue, was a male intern, the best-performing and most diligent, hence the original owner’s favorite, always standing at the forefront.

Behind him stood Zhou Liang, another male intern, and Hu Xintong, a female intern. At the very back, with her head down was the protagonist, Ren Yan.

Yesterday, the four interns were to submit their first observation report, and both Zhou Liang and Ren Yan were criticized.

Now, despite being sowhat disheartened, Zhou Liang humbly respectfully stood aside with the revised report in his hand, while Ren Yan, saying nothing, just looked up once before continued to stand behind as if invisible.

Influenced by the original owner’s temper, Jiang Lai also preferred straightforward people who would speak their mind.

After receiving Zhou Liang’s revised report, she extended her hand to Ren Yan, frowning with a cold tone.

"Where is your revised report? Give it to , I only have five minutes to give you feedback."

Ren Yan looked at her, her gaze sowhat evasive but trying to remain calm, keeping her composure, her voice low but with an aura of strength.

"Teacher, I reviewed your feedback, and as your student, I find a few issues and would like to discuss them with you directly."

Jiang Lai frowned, a habit retained from the original owner, showing her impatience with a sullen face, not masking her emotions.

Ren Yan could see Jiang Lai’s impatience and inwardly scoffed.

Impatient already?

How can soone like this be appropriate to teach?

"Three minutes, go ahead."

"You’ve altered my proposal in the report to change the confinent of rmaids, why? A broader sea space is more suitable for rmaid survival, yet now they’re huddled in under eight cubic ters of space, causing severe deformation of their dorsal fin bones, even posing a life threat. So I recomnd giving them over a hundred cubic ters of space. Is there a problem with that?"

Jiang Lai looked at her, and all the interns looked at Jiang Lai. Ren Yan’s gaze fird quite a bit, at that mont she felt she was truly standing opposite Jiang Lai, truly fulfilling her purpose for being here.

After a mont of silence, Jiang Lai pocketed her hands, speaking quickly in a cold tone.

"Do you know how much underwater kinetic energy a rmaid can generate when sprinting in adequate space? More force than a compactor falling from a ten-ter height. Do you know what the dorsal fin bones of a rmaid are for? Given enough space to unfold their dorsal fins, they’ll launch bone spikes from the fins that can easily pierce through even ten layers of reinforced glass.

Lastly, do you know what you’ve been researching here for three months?

Let go of your unrealistic fantasies about rmaids, those pitiful rmaids confined in eight cubic ters of space, in the past three years have launched attacks on fourteen thousand comrcial ships, slaughtering over seven thousand humans, causing billions in economic damage, and if not for governnts worldwide suppressing the news, these rmaids would incite global panic.

At that point, it won’t be the rmaids that are pitiful but us humans without claws or dorsal fins.

Today, I’ll take your words as foolish bravery, but next ti, don’t waste my ti with such aningless nonsense."

Checking the watch, three minutes had passed exactly, Jiang Lai reviewed Zhou Liang’s report while turning away.

Throughout, there was no fluctuation of emotion, even during her reprimand which contained little feeling.

Left at the spot, Ren Yan felt as if Jiang Lai had slapped her face, a fiery and burning sensation seeping out, her heart churning with sourness, making her repeatedly take deep breaths to hold back tears.

"Don’t be upset, there’s no point in being angry with soone so cold-hearted and unfeeling."

Ren Yan was sure Jiang Lai deliberately embarrassed her in front of others.

Mouth uttering high-sounding words about the terror of rmaids, yet if humans hadn’t provoked them, would they retaliate?

Now they even take advantage of their weapons to bully those simple rmaids.

Calming down, Ren Yan strode to catch up.

Jiang Lai was soon to tornt those rmaids again, she had to stay close and do whatever she could to protect them.

The heavy doors slowly opened, and ahead, confined within an entire semicircle of artificial glass were seven tal cages, inside which stood up a rectangular water tank, imprisoning seven rmaids.

They had human bodies and fish tails, their upper bodies were no different from humans with an extrely long fish tail below, their caudal fins spreading out like a swallow’s tail, its texture indeed as light and soft as smoke and gauze, hovering gently in the water.

Their enormous fish tails made them appear particularly grand, the narrow glass and steel making them curl their tails, with upper bodies pressing against the glass, scrutinizing their faces you could still discern the differences from humans, far too beautiful, surpassing the beauty attainable by humans, existing solely in artists’ imagination, beyond the depiction by paintings and sculptures, exquisite and enchanting, drawing one into reverence at a glance.

Jiang Lai glanced up, heart sohow stirred.

The rmaids with their fangs, claws, and full-bodied bone spikes indeed exuded a broken charm.

Looking again at the one in the center, a rmaid leader, captured while leading rmaids on a hunt out at sea, the largest tail, breathtakingly blue and radiant, a sufficiently robust upper body.
