Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Chapter 73 Meeting Li Shen (revised)

"If I absorb those black energy points, I won't mutate, right?"

Xue Ying looked at the black energy spots in the quilt that were caused by the supernatural power and spoke with some concern.

"No, these so-called supernatural energies are actually spiritual powers with impurities. Ordinary people or what you call evolved people are unable to filter out or expel these impurities, which leads to mutations."

"But people with special abilities don't know this. Didn't your holographic teacher teach you these basics?"

Xue Ming “…”

Xue Ying: “…”

They didn't seem to be listening carefully at that time...

Looking at Xia Jiumeng's appearance, they felt inexplicably scared, even more scared than facing the teacher in the training room.

"It seems you weren't listening carefully."

The two of them felt guilty. They were so excited about their newly awakened powers that they didn't listen to anything else. They only caught the techniques for using the powers...

Xia Jiumeng fastened her wristband and looked at them.

After analyzing the composition of the super energy, she asked Xiao Qi to reclassify and compare the super energy, evol ability, wandering body data and all categories of Kester's power from all the databases in this world.

Mental power > superpower > evol > superpower > core.

As for the grades, they range from low to high F-5s.

According to the classification of this world, the highest level of evolder is 100, with 10 levels each.

However, the power of different levels varies greatly.

For example, a C-class psychic can at least defeat a B-class evol user, which is around level 40, but a C-class psychic may not be able to defeat a D-class psychic.

But this is not what she wants to popularize.

"Then I will teach you how to absorb the free energy and remove the impurities."

Xia Jiumeng used her mental power to condense a ball of energy and dyed it with fire power.

A sphere like a small sun was suspended in the palm of her hand, containing many mottled gray-black substances.

"see it?"

Xia Jiumeng pointed at the impurities and urged the flames. Soon, the impurities began to cover the entire sphere under the burning of the flames, then were squeezed into a corner and burned by the red power. However, a small part still remained, but was completely wrapped by the power and could not cause any waves.

"These substances that can cause human mutations will be naturally repelled and burned by the superpowers flowing throughout the body after being absorbed by the superpower user. The remaining amount will slowly disappear over time, so superpower users don't need to be afraid of these powers."

"Of course, if the ability upgrades too quickly and these impurities cannot be removed in time, the ability user will suffer a breakdown or turn into a monster. At this time, the assistance of potions or purification users will be needed."

Xia Jiumeng said lightly after absorbing the energy ball in her hand.

"Potion?"

"Purify the mutants?"

The two brothers of the Xue family looked at each other and could see big questions in each other's eyes.

"Purification ability users are special ability users and are rare. I am not here to be a teacher. If you want to know more, go back to the training room and study again."

"Now, Xue Ying, take it!"

Xia Jiumeng threw four fireballs at him mercilessly, and at the same time, he was approaching him quickly and trying to attack him.

I asked you to complain to Qin Che!

Xue Ying was startled and frantically condensed a dark energy ball to resist, but was still caught off guard and knocked against the wall of the training room by a punch from the approaching Xia Jiumeng.

"Hmm." Xue Ying covered his chest and groaned.

"A person with superpowers can't just release superpowers."

"I remember you were pretty good at it."

Xue Ying stood up with the help of the wall, and said unconvincedly, "I, I just didn't react for a moment."

"Then come again."

After Xia Jiumeng finished speaking, she attacked him again.

This time Xue Ying was better prepared than before. At least he was able to dodge Xia Jiumeng's close combat while blocking her special ability, but he was still hit again after a few hits.

"Not bad, but you still need to practice more."

Xia Jiumeng withdrew her hand. It was quite good that she had mastered the supernatural power to this level after just a short period of time.

Seeing this, Xue Ming spoke at the right time.

"Let me do it."

Xia Jiumeng seemed to be provoking them but actually seemed to be teaching them.

He also wanted to ask for advice. Most of what he had learned during this period were basic knowledge and the application of supernatural powers. He had not yet experienced actual combat, so he wanted to try to see how far he could go.

"Row."

With the same fireball and close combat, Xue Ming's reaction was much faster than Xue Ying's, and he only managed to avoid Xia Jiumeng's attack for at least five moves.

Xue Ming covered his aching abdomen and said with a smile, "Ms. Xia is really not simple."

Xue Ming sighed inwardly, her agility and strength were no less than the boss's.

"so so."

Xia Jiumeng took off the wristband and gestured that she had done enough.

"Your control of your superpowers is still a little poor. When you have time, you can go to the training room and study hard. If you use it properly, you can also achieve the effect of counter-suppression."

Xia Jiumeng said this to Xue Ming, because her fire element just happened to restrain the plant element or the wood element, but high-end psychics can completely achieve anti-attribute suppression.

"it is good."

Xue Ying, who was originally a little unconvinced, now understood Xia Jiumeng's true intention. He scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I'll fight you next time."

"Let's talk about it when we have time."

"There's an elevator leading outside to Training Ground No. 4. You can enter and exit through there. The permissions have been granted to your intelligent system."

"You can come here often to study and train." Xia Jiumeng put on her white coat. "By the way, the training ground is difficult to build, so it costs 500 per time."

Then he smiled slightly and left the two stunned people standing there.

"No, why would she charge money?"

"Miss Xia put a lot of thought into building this place. At least this knowledge about supernatural powers is something that the outside world absolutely cannot have."

"500 isn't much."

Xue Ming calmly patted Xue Ying, went upstairs, found a smart assistant on standby, bound it, and then asked it to apply to the main system of the experimental base for access and use rights to the training ground.

*

The next day, she arranged everything early and asked Xue Ming to take her to the edge of Linkong City, and then she took a taxi home.

Linkong Nanhua Apartment.

"Miss, we're here." The taxi driver stopped the car at the apartment gate.

"it is good."

Xia Jiumeng paid the fare and got out of the car carrying Xiaoqi.

"Finally back~"

【Master can now take a good vacation. 】

Xiao Qi changed his position in her arms and yawned comfortably.

"That is."

Before she left n109, she had told Qin Che that Xiao Qi was enough to handle the laboratory affairs. It was fully capable of controlling the entire process, and the laboratory also had intelligent robots and an "employee".

There is no need for her to do it herself for the time being.

If you have other production needs, your home studio is enough.

"I'll go and ask Captain Nan to cancel my leave first. By the way, Xiaoqi, can you help me find out where the university is located?"

Xia Jiumeng rode her H20 motorcycle in the parking lot of the apartment.

[Okay, Master, I've located the university based on your information, and I've also compiled your upcoming study schedule.]

Xia Jiumeng looked at the university schedule that appeared on the lenses of her glasses and nodded.

"understood."

These glasses were specially made by her for daily use.

When she arrived at the association, she went directly to Jiang Nan's office to explain her situation and cancel her leave.

"Okay, I get it. But studies are more important. You can accept or reject the tasks assigned by the system based on your circumstances. The association does not have mandatory tasks."

Jiang Nan destroyed the leave note.

"Okay, thank you Captain Nan for your help then."

Xia Jiumeng stood up and said goodbye politely.

Seeing that it was already noon, she found a nearby restaurant to eat.

As soon as I sat down, I received a message from Li Shen.

【Li Shen: I'm back, where are you? 】

Xia Jiumeng directly sent the location.

【Xia Maomao: Have you eaten yet? Together?】

Li Shen: Okay.

Xia Jiumeng put down her phone and called the waiter.

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

"Two iced mochas and two simple meals, one without carrots, thank you."

"Okay, wait a minute."

The waiter quickly wrote down her request and left with a smile.

Xia Jiumeng didn't expect him to come back so soon. She thought he would come back at least a few days after that message.

But it’s just right, I can take Li Shen back in the evening and let Xiao Qi check Li Shen’s health.

By the way, show him the prepared first-level genetic medicine.

Li Shen came very quickly, but Xia Jiumeng felt a little strange about him today.

It's still a bit hot since it's not the beginning of autumn yet, but he is wearing a black woolen coat.

There was also a noticeable chill in his body.

"Sorry for the wait."

"Um, it's okay, are you cold?" Xia Jiumeng asked subconsciously.

"No, it's just cold in the polar regions so I wear more clothes."

Li Shen was stunned for a moment, then took off his coat and put it on the sofa beside him.

"I see. How's your research going?"

"It's almost done. The only thing left is for the dean to stay."

Li Shen took the food brought by the waiter and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Enjoy your meal, both of you. Here are two small desserts for you."

The waiter smiled and put down two tiramisu slices.

After the waiter walked away for a while, Xia Jiumeng continued to ask, "Are you free today?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Then let's go to my house."

Li Shen was suddenly stunned. "What do you mean..."

"Didn't you go there last time?"

Xia Jiumeng thought his reaction was a little strange, but didn't think much about it.

Li Shen lowered his eyes. Yes, he had indeed been there. "Okay, what do I need to bring?"

"You don't need to bring anything. You can just buy it at the supermarket near the apartment later."

It's only noon now, let's buy some ingredients and cook something together in the evening.

"kindness."

The two of them ate quietly.

"I'm done eating." Xia Jiumeng put down her chopsticks and smiled.

"Me too. Let's go."

Li Shen took the coat from the sofa and wanted to put it on.

"It's hot outside, so you'd better not wear it."

Xia Jiumeng stopped him and pulled him out.

Who would wear a coat in such hot weather? It would look a bit weird. Although she didn't care, she didn't want anyone to look at Li Shen with strange eyes.

As soon as they walked out of the store, the waiter hurried to the table where they were sitting.

"Sir, Miss, I'm sorry, our chef forgot to put the carrots you mentioned..."

But when the waiter saw the empty seats and clean dishes, he was stunned.

"Let's go, forget it, let's talk about it next time we meet..."

The waiter shook his head, collected his thoughts and started packing up.

This lady should be a resident of the apartment. She has seen her several times and will talk about it next time she meets her.

Xia Jiumeng and Li Shen went to a nearby supermarket after leaving the restaurant.

I bought some food and went to the daily necessities area.

"I'll buy you a pair of slippers, and some pajamas or something." Xia Jiumeng said as she looked at the ice silk men's pajamas hanging in front of her.

I turned around to ask for his opinion but was met with his deep gaze. "I thought you might come here often in the future, and it would be troublesome if you don't have a change of clothes..."

Li Shen would definitely often study potions with her in the studio at home in the future, and he might even have to stay there. He was very busy with work, and it would be inconvenient for him to go back home late at night every day.

It just so happened that after renovating her house, she added four guest bedrooms and a master bedroom. Although the area is not large, it is still spacious. And each room also has a bathroom and a dressing room. Of course, the master bedroom is the largest.

It’s no problem to give Li Shen temporary accommodation.

"Okay, this is it."

Li Shen suddenly curled his lips and took the men's pajamas in front of Xia Jiumeng and put them in the shopping cart.

"I'll push it, and you can see if there's anything else you want to buy."

"it is good."

The two of them strolled around slowly for more than an hour and bought a lot of things, especially a lot of daily necessities for Li Shen, such as slippers and mouthwash cups.

By the time I checked out, I had filled three large bags.

Xia Jiumeng wanted to help carry it, but Li Shen refused to let her.

Xia Jiumeng could only follow him obediently holding his coat.

"I'll open the door first." Xia Jiumeng took the lead and took a few steps to open the door and lights of the house.

"Just put it there." Xia Jiumeng said, pointing to the dining table on the left.

"it is good."

Li Shen put his things down and sat on the sofa at home. He looked around and found that this place seemed a little different from what he remembered.

Xia Jiumeng came over with a cup of water and smiled at his curious look. "After the explosion at home last time, this place was renovated."

“It’s much cleaner now.”

The layout of the room is the room on the left and the kitchen and studio on the right. The positions of the balcony and snack cabinet have not changed, but the transparent glass of the balcony has been replaced with high-grade protective glass that can change color. It can withstand attacks from low-level stray bodies and general weapons.

The walls and floors that appear to be made of wood or tiles are actually made of extremely thick synthetic high-hardness metal. The entire room is like an iron barrel, with a very high safety factor.

"Indeed." Li Shen looked at the tidy room and nodded. It was indeed very clean.

It was much better than her previous room which she rarely kept clean.

"Okay, Li Shen, come with me. The genetic medicine I told you about before has been made, although it's only the initial, basic version."

"Gene medicine?"

"Yes, come with me. It has been used on human bodies and is very safe. So far, there has been no case of failure among humans." Xia Jiumeng used fingerprints and pupil patterns to verify and then opened the studio to invite him in.

Li Shen didn't move, but looked at her with a somewhat cold expression. "You're using human subjects for experiments?"

Xia Jiumeng didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Shen, she just thought that he didn't like this behavior. However, it was normal. After all, Li Shen was a doctor who cured diseases and saved lives, and an experimenter using human subjects for experiments was in conflict with the doctor to some extent.

"Not really. We used guinea pigs first, then found volunteers and asked for their opinions before giving the injections to those people."

Xia Jiumeng didn't want Li Shen to misunderstand her, so she quickly explained.
