Otherworld Bone Dragon Operation Guide

Chapter 53 Skull Delivery and Murder

The control room was also modified, moved forward to the front of the bridge to become the bridge, and expanded at the rear to become the combat room, where a sand table is placed.

Looking at the familiar L-shaped kitchen stove and the new non-stick pan and rice cooker from yesterday, Su Ming felt that this place was becoming more and more like Earth.

"By the way, the refrigerator you just made is nice," Violet said. "I put some of my alchemical materials in it, so please don't touch it."

"...Is it poisonous?"

"I don't think so, right?" Violet asked uncertainly.

Su Ming made up his mind to immediately build a new refrigerator specifically for storing food. After all, the vehicles he'd traveled through all had air conditioning, and he had plenty of building materials.

For breakfast, Su Ming chose to make noodles. Yeast also exists in this world, but with Zi Jin around, it's not that complicated. The wind and fire combined fermentation spell is fast and won't make it sour.

He rolled out the dough thin, cut it into wide noodles, demonstrated once, and then handed it over to Russell the Skeleton. He then made a dish of chopped chili peppers and chopped some minced meat to make a sauce.

Once the noodles were cooked, they were scooped out, tossed with fragrant fried sauce, and Su Ming immediately felt that this morning was full of hope.

Zijin poured in the chopped chili peppers, mixed it, took a bite, and exclaimed, "Not bad!"

"The chili peppers need to sit for a while so that their spicy flavor can fully dissolve into the oil," Su Ming said. "I'm preparing this for your lunch."

"This is already very good."

The two ate quickly, and the leftovers were served to Captain Harding, who was still imprisoned.

Zijin resumed deducing the spell, and Su Ming also shifted his focus to the little troublemaker.

Su Ming didn't have to wait long before an electric tricycle appeared at the factory gate. The deliveryman was startled by the large wooden crate, and when he opened it, he was startled again to see a white, jade-like skeleton inside.

He tried to contact the client but couldn't reach them.

The customer left a message saying they had something to do in the morning and asked me to pick up the goods first, and they would contact me later.

The deliveryman checked the information and found that it was labeled "human skeleton model teaching aid". The information matched, so he could only close the box and take it away.

Half an hour later, the customer service at the courier point contacted Su Ming, asked for a photo of his ID card and some other information, and began processing the paperwork.

Su Ming sent Miao Xin's information over.

"According to regulations, your item is considered a special item and must be insured," the customer service representative said. "The fee is one percent of the declared value, with a minimum of 100 yuan, which means the insured amount is 10000 yuan."

Su Ming manipulated the little troublemaker sealed in the box, and typed a reply on his silent phone: "Okay."

"Regarding outbound items, if they involve customs duties, they might be detained by customs at the destination," the customer service representative said. "You can leave your relevant information here and wait for customs at the destination to contact you to handle the formalities, or you can directly pay an intermediary to handle it for you. Customs duties there are very high recently, so my personal suggestion is—"

"It's okay, it won't be intercepted. I'll just leave the relevant information."

After filling out the form for over ten minutes, Su Ming finally mailed the little troublemaker out. As usual, he arranged for the ghost Miao Xin to be his nanny, and after securing the box, Su Ming disconnected from Earth.

****
Around nine o'clock, a group of dragon eagles reappeared on the radar screen, this time as four small dots.

Su Ming and Zi Jin walked onto the flight deck. She had changed into a khaki preppy-style suit skirt, paired with black knee-high socks and a brown round hat.

To be honest, Su Ming really felt like he was playing a real-life version of Love Nikki—except that the girl's gaze towards him became increasingly suspicious, and she became much more aggressive during "training."

Su Ming put away his phone; this Pura was indeed worth the price. He watched the four dragon eagles approach from the sky. "Is there an additional negotiator today?" Su Ming guessed. Violet didn't respond. Su Ming turned to look at her and heard the sound of wind rushing behind him.

"Wind Blade!"

Thanks to Violet's teaching, he can now make some tactical judgments quickly, so he did not panic and directly chose a routine he had practiced.

Flash!

Su Ming yelled, but instead threw a mist ball behind him. Then he curled up, connected with the bone imprint, and erected multiple bone walls behind him.

The shockwave from the magical collision came, but he wasn't affected by the attack as expected—the intensity was far less than when he sparred with Violet. The mist didn't affect Su Ming's vision; he quickly moved from his original position and scanned his surroundings.

There were four men dressed as mercenaries, who had already jumped onto the ship. One of them, who looked like a mage, was already using wind magic to dispel the fog.

Su Ming was full of questions. This was dark mist, and he was going to blow it away with the wind?
He reached out and parted some of the mist, making the other party mistakenly believe that his wind magic had worked.

"[Violet?]" Su Ming transmitted. When encountering enemies, he would focus on protecting himself, leaving the rest to Violet; this had always been the focus of their training. What to do if ambushed, what to do if intercepted, how to cooperate with each other—the scholar, while beating him to a pulp, demanded that he memorize all the possible responses.

With no response, Su Ming had to glance at her, only to find that the scholar had been hit by an alchemical tool and was slumped on the spot.

"Aha! It really worked!" a mercenary shouted, raising his axe and rushing towards Violet.

"I can't move!" came the girl's listless voice.

Su Ming sighed. This tone was so perfunctory, even AB was more dedicated to acting than her!
"Withering away!"

He raised his hand, and several black magic orbs shot straight at the mercenary attacking Violet. Behind Su Ming, the previously separated mist suddenly closed, trapping the other three mercenaries who were charging towards him.

"The Whip of Thorns!"

Su Ming remained moving, using his other hand to untie the long whip from his waist and sweep it behind him without even looking. The sensation indicated he had hit someone, so Su Ming casually pulled it back and then lashed out again.

When choosing a weapon for self-defense, Zi Jin casually tossed him this whip. In her words, there was no weapon with an easier entry barrier. Su Ming would use it to spin the top whenever he had free time, treating it as a form of exercise.

The mercenary charging towards the Violet was startled. He raised his axe to block the Withering Orb, nearly dropping his weapon in the collision. The scattered fragments of Withering Light also smeared the mercenary's face, severely impairing his vision.

The axe-wielding mercenary frantically swerved to one side, but Su Ming channeled his magic into the thorn whip, spun around 360 degrees, and delivered a powerful diagonal lash. The whip bypassed the axe and struck the mercenary, who immediately howled in pain.

Hearing a noise behind him, Su Ming didn't turn around at all. He used the Ghost Shield Technique to protect himself, and his bone shield blocked the way behind him.

A crashing sound rang out, the bone shield cracked, and the cleaver was completely blocked by the shield.

With such low attack power, it's a waste to use damage transfer!
Su Ming had already summoned a bone spear with his left hand. He originally planned to use the impact from the attack from behind to leap towards the axe-wielding mercenary and finish him off at close range with the bone spear.

Plans can't keep up with changes. He turned around and tossed the bone spear to the mercenary who was about to swing it again, who was dramatically sent flying.

Su Ming was uninterested. "Miss Zijin, these people are acting too fake."

The scholar dispelled her illusion, revealing her true self holding a teacup on the other side. She leaned against the railing, revealing the beautiful figure of a young girl. "I was acting. They weren't."
