"What are you talking about..."
Behind him, a group of people were a little confused.
"… It's nothing, it's just between the two of us." Xu Xin waved to the others, but he was relieved.
Lou Feier was frowning at this time, her arm still stretched in the injection instrument, and her other hand was holding the table, seeming a little unsteady.
"How do you feel now?" Xu Xin asked immediately.
“A little... hot..." As she said that, she reached out and ripped open the collar of her clothes, revealing a large area of fair skin.
"Ah!" Zeng Tao exclaimed, "The blood marks on her body are gone! Really gone!"
Lou Feier held onto the table and pulled her arm out of the instrument. Then she staggered and nearly fell to the ground.
Zeng Tao, who was beside her, quickly supported her, then grabbed the arm she had just pulled out and looked at it.
Her arm, which was originally covered with blood, had returned to normal, except for a red dot on her slender white forearm, which was the mark of the injection.
"Is the effect of this genetic medicine so fast?" The people behind him were a little surprised.
"You... don't inject them together..."
Lou Feier leaned weakly on Zeng Tao's body, her face flushed, beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, and she frowned and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable now, and my strength is...somewhat unusable, and I don't know how long this state will last."
Her meaning was very clear, which was to tell everyone that perhaps they could continue to observe her current condition before giving her the injection.
Although the possibility is not high, if this kind of weak state lasts for several days, it will be very dangerous for everyone if they continue like this!
"Do you have any positive feelings now?" Ji Chaoyang asked.
"Hmm... I can't feel it now. I feel like there are two people fighting inside my body... It makes my whole body boil, and my body's strength is rapidly consumed. I..."
As Lou Feier spoke, her voice gradually became weaker and her eyelids began to tremble.
"I feel like...sleeping..."
Qi Xuefei immediately approached her, gave her a simple checkup, and then said to everyone: "She is in good health in every aspect now, but she is a little... overworked?"
Overworked
"… Don't worry, it's probably caused by the temporary conflict between the mutated bloodline gene in your body and the gene medicine." Xu Xin said, "Just hold on for this period of time."
"Ah... so... then I..." Lou Feier exhaled a breath of hot air, her eyes a little hazy, "Then I'll go to sleep first... I'm so tired..."
As she spoke, she closed her eyes, leaned her whole body on Zeng Tao, and lost consciousness.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't sleep!" Zeng Tao was immediately shocked. "In this situation, isn't it normal that once you fall asleep, you can't wake up? Wake up!"
Qi Xuefei checked immediately and then smiled and said, "Don't worry, she's fine. She just fell asleep."
“Ah? That’s good…” Zeng Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Xin was relieved after hearing this. Although he had never worried about any problems with the medicine, Lou Feier's condition was indeed a little scary.
"But, this side effect is a bit serious, isn't it?" Behind him, Wang Lei looked at Lou Fei'er who was sitting next to the treasure chest with the help of Zeng Tao and said, "Let's see how long she will sleep."
"Maybe we don't need to worry too much about this." At this time, Ji Chaoyang spoke up, "Lou Feier's condition is most likely due to blood vein mutation, just as Xu Xin just said, and those of us who don't have blood vein mutations will most likely not have any side effects."
"Ah, that's right!"
"Let me do it." Xu Xin walked to the instrument, "I'll do the injection this time."
Even if he encounters some problems in a short period of time, nothing will go wrong on his side. After all, there are so many talented people around him, and he doesn't have so many people to manage.
Of course, it was more of a confidence thing. He had a feeling that this potion would not have any side effects on him.
"... Well, you are indeed the most suitable one." Ji Chaoyang nodded in agreement.
Xu Xin's men were also very efficient. After loading the new medicine, he removed the steel armor on his upper body, rolled up his sleeves, put his arm into the instrument, and directly pressed the injection button.
"Hiss..."
A sharp pain came from his arm, which shocked him and made him think that his arm was about to be pierced. He almost pulled his arm out.
But then, he immediately felt something abnormal in his body.
"How about it?"
"How do you feel, Brother Xin?"
All the explorers around gathered around and asked.
"Well... I feel a little hot and my arm is a little sore, but..." Xu Xin pulled his arm out of the instrument and clenched his fist, "Unlike Lou Fei'er, other than these, there seems to be nothing abnormal."
He tried to shake his fist again.
His strength hadn't increased, and he seemed to be unaware of any change.
Wang Lei immediately clapped his hands and said, "Does that mean that, for us, this gene drug has no side effects? Haha, let me... hm?"
Wang Lei suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Xu Xin.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xin found that the way people around him looked at him had changed, and they were a little surprised.
"Ah! Your hair!" Zeng Tao exclaimed.
hair
Xu Xin reached out and touched his hair.
Huh
Why is his hair so long
He looked down and found that his hair had grown to his chest. It was very long!
This is… !
He suddenly felt itchy all over his body.
"Ah! Your face!" Zeng Tao widened her eyes and pointed at his face and shouted.
Xu Xin immediately reached out and touched his face, and a layer of skin was immediately wiped off.
However, he did not feel any pain.
Is this... dead skin
"Oh my God! What's going on?" Zhao Xiaochuan also cried out in shock.
"This... His face is falling off!" Wen Guixin took a small step back and said in horror, "Will this genetic drug disfigure me?"
"You are..." Jin Yue looked at him at a loss.
Xu Xin frowned, but he didn't feel any unwell.
He grabbed his hand again, and suddenly a layer of skin was lifted off the back of his hand.
He immediately knew what was going on and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine. You will be able to see a brand new me soon."
As he said this, he scratched his face.
Amid the exclamations of the people around him, a layer of skin on his face was peeled off.
The newborn skin is as tender and smooth as a baby's, making people want to touch it just by looking at it.
"Hiss... Not only will it not disfigure you, it can also beautify you?"
This is when Ji Chaoyang spoke up: "Is this because your body's metabolism is speeding up?"
"The metabolism is speeding up?" Everyone was puzzled.
Xu Xin nodded and said, "Perhaps, I am now replacing most of the cells in my body?"
In just a few dozen seconds, his hair had grown to the ground. He took out a boning knife and cut his hair. Then he said to everyone, "Wait a moment, I'll take care of it. You can take a look at the resources here."
Having said that, he rushed out.
He felt his skin all over his body was extremely itchy and he urgently needed to take a shower!
Fortunately, this was originally a hilly resource area, and there is a lake not far away.
Jin Yue just kicked off and followed.
"Oh, I'll go too!" Zeng Tao was about to run after them, but then she thought of something, turned around, picked up Lou Feier, and rushed out.
The other explorers were left staring at each other in bewilderment.
"The people around Brother Xin seem so powerful." Wang Lei said in amazement, "Just now... Jin Yue? She was so fast! She was out in an instant!"
"That's the ability of blood vein mutation, right?" Wen Guixin was also very interested. "Maybe we will have it soon."
Immediately, everyone looked at the syringe.
…
Xu Xin soon reached the lake.
The other self had fully considered the situation after the crystal city rose to the ground, and even reserved a separate area for the lake on the ground, making this lake a scenic lake in the crystal city.
The water in the lake is crystal clear and there are some fish swimming in it, all of which are very common species.
The map appeared in his mind, and Xu Xin was surprised to find that the color of the light spots shown by the fish in the lake was green.
It was all red before.
He didn't hesitate any longer, he just took off his clothes and jumped into the water.
There were many tiny fish in the lake. As soon as he jumped into the lake, they immediately rushed towards him, surrounded him, and began to peck at his body.
Is it eating the dead skin on his body
Xu Xin immediately squinted his eyes comfortably.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine." He enjoyed the fish therapy from the fish in the water and turned to Jin Yue who was standing on the shore.
“… You looked a little scary just now.” Jin Yue’s expression relaxed a little, and she spoke softly.
"That's me being reborn," he laughed.
"Xu Xin! Are you okay... Ah! Why are you taking a bath?" Zeng Tao was immediately surprised, "Wow, there are so many fish around you!"
Because there were so many fish, all the dead skin on Xu Xin's body was eaten up in just half a minute.
He swam to the edge of the lake and stood up.
"Ah! You you you...!" Zeng Tao's face suddenly turned red, and she looked away immediately, but she couldn't help but glanced back a few more times, and then she muttered, "How can a man like you have such tender skin..."
This is new skin, how can it not be tender
Jin Yue's expression was normal and she didn't look away. After all, there were some things she had experienced to the point of being numb.
However, Xu Xin's figure still made her eyes widen slightly.
Xu Xin didn't care about anything. He felt refreshed all over and relaxed all over.
I'm just a little hungry.
He twisted his neck, took out a new set of clothes and put them on, then let out a long sigh of relief.
Now he...
Can we say that we have eternal life
It seemed that apart from the fact that the body felt much more relaxed, there were no other strong sensations.
"How is it? Are you okay now?" Zeng Tao asked.
She was still holding Lou Feier horizontally, but with her strength, holding Lou Feier was not much different from simply raising her hands.
"Well, it's healed now." Xu Xin walked over and looked at Lou Feier, whose skin was flushed all over and whose face looked slightly painful in her sleep, then reached out and touched her face.
Her face was soaked with sweat, feeling a little slippery and very hot, just like the body temperature of a person with a fever of 40 degrees.
However, there was no sign of his sudden metabolism speeding up and complete transformation.
It seems that Lou Feier still needs some time for the two genes of physical strength to fight against each other.
However, he was not worried that something would happen to her. After all, this genetic potion was left by those people. They had all used it. At that time, they had been mutated for more than a hundred years. They were definitely stronger than Lou Feier was now, but they were still suppressed by this genetic potion.
Therefore, it is only a matter of time before Lou Feier returns to normal.
"Hmm..." Perhaps feeling the coolness of Xu Xin's palm, Lou Feier hummed softly, but did not wake up. However, her expression was much more relaxed.
"Well... you two, wait until Lou Fei'er recovers, then take turns injecting her. You can't lose your fighting power together."
"Okay." Jin Yue nodded.
"I know. By the way, does the injection hurt?" Zeng Tao asked, pointing at Xu Xin's arm.
“It hurts a lot.”
"Ah? Don't lie to me!"
"What good will it do me if I lie to you? Why, are you afraid of injections?" Xu Xin looked at her with some amusement.
I've suffered such serious injuries, so why would I be afraid of being stabbed
"Who... who said I was scared! I was just asking!"
Xu Xin put the sleeping Lou Feier into the bracelet, and then walked back with Zeng Tao and Jin Yue.
Only Ji Chaoyang and Qi Xuefei were still waiting in the tree house.
"You're back."
"What about them?"
"They don't dare to inject it for the time being, so they go to the palace to check first." Ji Chaoyang asked, "How is it? Has it returned to normal?"
"Yes." Xu Xin nodded and told him about his previous situation, then said, "I think you should inject this medicine as soon as possible to avoid any accidents in the future. I will contact other people, and you can get the injection first. Or, you can observe for a while?"
"No need, I trust you, let's get the injection as soon as possible to avoid any complications." Ji Chaoyang also made a prompt decision, "Xue Fei, let's get the injection."
"Okay." Qi Xuefei had already taken the bottle of genetic medicine.
When the two were receiving the injection, Xu Xin immediately contacted Wang Lei and asked him to bring the others back.
"Ah... OK, Brother Xin, we'll be right back." Wang Lei's voice was a little different from his usual voice. Xu Xin felt a little strange, and just as he was about to ask, the other party hung up.
Forget it, let’s talk about it after they get here.
Ji Chaoyang and Qi Xuefei, who had been injected with the medicine, experienced the same situation as Xu Xin, and they both quickly ran to the lake.
Xu Xin took the opportunity to count the supplies.
It was exactly the same as what Lou Feier and the others said, and there were no unexpected surprises.
However, these things are valuable enough.
"Oh, by the way, where's Coco?" At this time, Zeng Tao, who had been helping, suddenly looked up and looked around, "Did you bring Coco out?"
cocoa
yes!
Xu Xin stood up and started looking for it.
There was no trace of Coco's little figure in the room, nor outside the house.
Where is Coco
When they arrived at the crystal house just now, Coco jumped off his shoulder. He was focused on the injection instrument and didn't pay any attention to her. What happened next also made him forget about this little guy.
Where did it go
"Keke, where are you?" Zeng Tao shouted outside the house, "Come out quickly, we need to go home for dinner!"
But there was no response.
Xu Xin shook his head.
This little guy can really run around. He must have discovered something in this crystal city again.
Fortunately, this crystal city is very safe, so it doesn't matter if it runs away.
At this time, he saw the people coming back one after another, walking towards the direction of the Crystal Palace.
"Go and inject the medicine quickly... What's wrong?" Xu Xin was suddenly stunned when he saw their expressions.
They were all very silent, and some even had red eyes.
What's going on
Wang Lei raised his head and said with some difficulty: "Brother Xin, we also went back to the past like you and saw the situation over there."
Um?!
Xu Xin was startled and asked hurriedly, "Did you go to the second floor of the Crystal Palace? Did you... see everything?"
“…All of them.” Zhao Xiaochuan was in a very low mood, and his voice was a little hoarse.
"We are the same." Qin Yunlong said, his mood was still normal, "I went back with Yunhu, but... like you said, we stayed there for a few hours and basically couldn't affect anything."
"Ah!" Wen Guixin, with red eyes, shook her head violently, "Isn't this something we knew before? What's there to be sad about! You've been wasting time, go get the injection! If you don't leave, I'll push you away!"
“Don’t…!”
Several people walked into the crystal house together and injected the genetic medicine.
Xu Xin looked towards the crystal palace, thoughtfully.
"That's not right. How come they all ended up like you?" Zeng Tao was very surprised. "Why didn't anything happen to us? How come Jin Yue, Lou Fei'er and I didn't feel anything at all?"
"… Maybe it was because I hadn't fully activated this palace to the ground at that time, so it was only open to me." Xu Xin was silent for a moment and said, "Now that it has been raised to the ground, it can play its full role."
At that time, that self once said that this palace was a time machine with special limitations.
If this is true, he may be able to go back to the past now through this machine.
Others might be able to go back to the past and only be spectators, but he... can talk to Yingying in the past, and thus influence the past through Yingying!
