Zhuo Xi drove the car to the research institute in the inner city of Xianglong City. The two of them were invited into the reception room. Only Dr. Weng and Zhuo Xi were in the room.
It was only at this moment that Dr. Weng showed excitement and asked straight to the point: "Do you have other rune inks in your hand?"
Tang Shi and Yanxu had actually guessed Dr. Weng's intention of looking for them. They originally thought that like Mr. Tan, he would make a sideways test first, and then get to the point. Unexpectedly, Dr. Weng was not one to beat around the bush and asked him straight away. Does he still have rune ink in his hand? And he is very sure that he must still have it in his hand.
Tang Shi didn't want to offend people like Dr. Weng. Even in his previous life, Tang Shi had heard of his name. This old man had made great contributions to the study of runes. Dr. Weng has a small reputation among the large gathering places, and he deserves a lot of credit.
Tang Shi smiled and said, "Even if there is, I've almost used it."
Dr. Weng's eyes widened, and he walked around anxiously in the reception room, muttering, "What a waste of natural resources, what a waste of natural resources..."
After turning around for a few times, he suddenly stopped and stared at Tang Shi, "Do you still have it in your hand? This is very important for the study of runes. It will be a milestone for human beings to become stronger. How can it be wasted like this? It's too bad. So decent!"
Seeing that the teacher was angry, Zhuo Xi hurriedly explained: "Don't mind, you two. Teacher has been obsessed with rune research for so long. After learning that there was rune ink, he has been looking for you, but he couldn't find it for a while. Now that I know the rune ink has been wasted, I’m a little anxious, so don’t mind, you two.”
Tang Shi took out only half a bottle of green ink from the small grid. It was the hunter's ink used to draw the life-spinning spider girl.
"There are only so many left. Dr. Weng will see if he has enough for research. If not, I will take it back and draw a few life-spinning spider women." Tang Shi smiled nonchalantly.
The hunter ink was indeed used a lot, but it was definitely not the only amount left.
When Dr. Weng saw it, his eyes suddenly lit up. He rushed over and carefully picked up only half of the bottle of Hunter's ink. He said excitedly: "Enough, enough. This much is enough to study its composition."
Tang Shi's eyelids twitched and he looked at Zhuo Xi, "Have you studied the composition of moonlight ink?"
Zhuo Xi said embarrassedly: "I'm not sure about this. Although Dr. Weng is my teacher, after the end of the world, I did not study runes with the teacher. I am now studying card production with the teacher's senior brother, Dr. Shi."
Zhuo Xi glanced at the teacher who was holding Hunter's Ink and rushed to the laboratory to study without saying a word. He smiled bitterly and said: "That's what the teacher is like. He is too focused on research and doesn't care about anything in the outside world. If he is not looking for two The teacher will not come out of the research room."
Tang Shi understands and admires these researchers. After the end of the world, if it weren't for these people, humans would probably still be hunted by various races. Their contributions to mankind will be remembered in history. What does Tang Shi have to care about? What about the attitude of a person obsessed with research
Zhuo Xi continued: "I heard from the researchers under the teacher that even if the composition of the ink is discovered, it will not be successful without the corresponding runes for comparison."
Tang Shi understood what Zhuo Xi meant and was not polite at the moment. He took out the few remaining stones in the small grid and handed them to Zhuo Xi.
"These trapped stones were obtained when we killed the horned ape man. They are all here. See if the runes on them are useful." The stones are indeed here, but the runes are not. The engraved stones in his hand are The runes on the beast's teeth will not be handed over now.
Zhuo Xi took it and looked at it, looking very surprised, "It must be useful. The teacher will be very happy when he sees these runes."
Zhuo Xi is also a researcher obsessed with research. He doesn't have much time to receive Tang Shi and Yanxu, but he can't take their things in vain. He thought for a while and said: "If you have any requests, please tell me. I will tell the teacher that you are in Fu." You have made great contributions to Wen’s research, and the teacher will definitely agree to any of your requests.”
Tang Shi did not speak.
Yanxu, who had not spoken yet, said very rudely: "After the ingredients of moonlight ink and hunter ink are researched, I hope you can tell us. In addition, Tang Shi wants to participate in the trial assessment, and I hope the research institute will do it when necessary. Please support me.”
Zhuo Xi looked surprised and looked at Tang Shi. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and said, "Okay, no problem. I will tell the teacher. Thank you."
Tang Shi and Yanxu didn't stay long, got up and left.
In fact, Yanxu said it specifically just in case. Based on their battle with the Supreme Awakener team, even if they don't need any external help, they are still qualified to participate in the trial meeting. However, if something happens, you should be careful. good.
When they arrived home, Qin Lie and the others were already waiting and ordered a table of takeaways. It was very sumptuous and included wine. It was obvious that they wanted to celebrate today's victory.
Long Mian sat on the sofa, not saying a word, and his expression was not very happy.
Tang Shi understood that Long Mian couldn't let go of the Chang family's father and daughter for a while.
Chang Xia was finally taken away by other members of the Supreme Awakening team, and she didn't even have the courage to collect her father's body. How sad.
Only Long Mian can figure out such a thing by himself, and no one else can comfort him.
There was only half a month left before the assessment. Time was very tight, and Tang Shi still had a lot to prepare.
After eating, he went back to his room alone.
He had already collected all the materials needed for the system upgrade, but he had not upgraded it. This was simply because these days of system upgrade were Tang Shi's "weak period" and all his energy would be supplied to the system upgrade. required.
In other words, during this period, Tang Shi will become an ordinary person, no longer able to use Yuan energy, and his physical fitness will drop to the level of ordinary people. During this period, if danger occurs, it will be fatal.
Tang Shi thought for a while and decided to talk to Yanxu, so he went down and knocked on Yanxu's door again.
As soon as he knocked, the door of Yanxu's room did not open, but the door of Long Mian's room next door opened first.
Tang Shi: "What's wrong? You haven't rested yet?"
Long Mian looked at Tang Shi expressionlessly, and after a while he said, "I've already rested, why haven't you rested yet?"
At this time, Yanxu's door also opened.
Yanxu saw Long Mian standing outside and his eyes fell on Tang Shi, "What's wrong?"
Tang Shi pointed at Yanxu and said to Long Mian: "I have something to do with Yanxu, so you should go to bed first."
Long Mian didn't move, his eyes wandered over Tang Shi and Yanxu, "What's the matter?"
Yanxu's cold eyes were directed at Long Mian, who did not give in. He looked at Yanxu with even a hint of hostility in his eyes.
Tang Shi didn't understand what the two of them were arguing about. He glared at Yanxu, turned around and explained to Long Mian: "I want to take part in the assessment of the trial meeting. There is only half a month left for the assessment. I am not ready yet. Some The matter needs to be discussed with Yanxu."
Tang Shi thought that since he had explained it clearly, Long Mian would no longer be curious.
Unexpectedly, Long Mian frowned when he heard this, "Discuss with Yanxu alone? What about me? Am I so unworthy of your trust?"
Tang Shi looked at Long Mian angrily, but Long Mian looked back at Tang Shi stubbornly, as if he would never give up.
Tang Shi sighed, "Okay, you come in too."
As he was about to go to Yanxu's room, Long Mian stood still, "Why go to his room?"
Yanxu frowned, "Do you have any objections to me?"
Long Mian said: "I have no problem with you. I have a problem with your attitude towards Tang Tang."
Tangtang
Tang Shi's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately turned to look at Yanxu. He saw that Yanxu's expression immediately cooled down, and he stared at Long Mian with cold eyes. Tang Shi said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, why don't you go to Yanxu's room?" Come to my room, come up.”
Long Mian stared at Yanxu and followed Tang Shi upstairs with a little pride.
Yanxu felt a little frustrated and had no choice but to follow suit.
Tang Shi's room was the largest among all the rooms, and the decoration was the most luxurious. When Long Mian came in, he occupied a row of sofas, and Yan Xu sat in the other row, opposite him.
Tang Shi looked at it and finally chose to sit on the single sofa.
Yanxu looked at Tang Shi, feeling dissatisfied. He wanted to speak several times, but Tang Shi calmed him down with his eyes.
Tang Shi poured a cup of tea for each of them, and then said: "That's it, the trial meeting is about to take place. My... system upgrade materials have been collected. During the upgrade, I will become weak and cannot use Yuan Neng. After falling, I will return to normal, so I want to talk to you... you guys."
Yanxu knew that Tang Shi's system was going to be upgraded, but he didn't know that there would be so many side effects.
"How long will it take?" Yanxu asked.
"I'm not sure. It depends on the upgrade situation. It may take a few days or more than ten days." Tang Shi said.
Long Mian's focus was not on this, "What system?"
Just as Tang Shi was about to explain the origin of the system, Yanxu interrupted him, "There's no need to explain so much."
Then he said to Long Mian: "You just need to remember that Tang Shi will become weak recently."
Long Mian pursed his lips and said nothing. His expression was ugly. He stared at Tang Shi and Yanxu, then stood up and left.
Long Mian was angry, very angry.
Tang Shi sighed, a little confused as to what this kid was thinking. He was too overbearing.
Long Mian was angry, and Yan Xu was in a bad mood, so he immediately asked: "Why do you have to give in? Am I so shameless? What if I tell him about our relationship? You are my person, what does it mean for you to tolerate him everywhere?" He called you 'Tang Tang'? I've never even called you, so why should he call you?"
Tang Shi comforted him: "He is just a child, why do you care about him?"
Yanxu chuckled, "Child? How much younger is he than you? With a difference of 4 years, do you think he is a child?"
Tang Shi was a little embarrassed. The image of Long Mian, the little Douding, was deeply rooted in people's hearts. Tang Shi still hadn't realized that Long Mian, the little Douding, suddenly turned into a big man. How did he change during this period? He actually missed it...
Suddenly his jaw hurt and someone pinched it. Yanxu said angrily: "Don't miss him!"
Tang Shi turned his face away and avoided Yan Xu's hand, "What are you so awkward about? Long Mian... uh uh!"
Yanxu was already in a bad mood, but Tang Shi actually avoided his touch. This made Yanxu's anger suddenly rise, and he directly grabbed the back of Tang Shi's head and kissed him.
Tang Shi struggled and pushed him a few times, but when he didn't push him away, he bit him angrily.
As soon as the tip of Yanxu's tongue pried open Tang Shi's teeth, he was bitten. He frowned in pain and tasted blood in his mouth.
Tang Shi was also very irritable and said angrily: "Can you still listen to what others say? What are you jealous of? Long Mian just came back, can you give him some mercy? He has been alone for such a long time. How old is he? Even if he doesn't tell me, I can guess the difficulties and obstacles he has encountered while growing up. After the end of the world, life will be difficult for everyone. I was the one who said he adopted him, and I am the one who gave up on him and chased you in the end. I feel guilty for him, do you understand?"
Especially since he is still the Celestial Seal Rune of the bloodline of the ancient dragon, so powerful, yet he comes back regardless of past grudges. What made Tang Shi feel even more guilty was that during this period, Long Mian went to various gathering places near Xianglong City to look for him, always remembering Tang Shi's words that he would come to him.
In this era where there are no more promises, only Long Mian would foolishly believe in a promise and keep waiting and searching.
Yanxu stopped talking, but he was also very unhappy and slammed the door and walked out.
Long Mian, who left first, didn't sleep. He didn't feel relieved until he heard the door closing in the next room.
