Chapter 49 [Angel Medicine] and [Project Divine Descent]
Chapter 49 [Angel Medicine] and [Project Divine Descent]
For an instant.
A warm feeling spread throughout my body.
Xia Youran was filled with joy.
I'm so lucky today.
Not only did she go hiking with the person she liked, but she also experienced a near-death experience and actually found a four-leaf clover in the end.
Even if you add up the past ten years or so of her life, it wouldn't bring her as much happiness as this day.
In that instant when this feeling of happiness welled up in my heart.
She successfully digested the [Mage's Hand] potion within her body.
Xia Youran laughed, unable to contain her emotions any longer, and threw herself into Zhang Lingyun's arms.
Ding Shuangshuang watched this scene from afar.
Seeing their genuine joy, I became even more certain—
Zhang Lingyun must have a very powerful backer. Luckily, I didn't force him just now.
Then, she gritted her teeth in resentment, silently cursing in her heart:
They're so close, yet they're still pretending to be cousins.
That's so shameless!
Huang Ku reflected on his actions for a few days.
But the greed in my heart grew wildly like weeds, and I couldn't suppress it at all.
In addition to his "astounding wisdom," I always felt that I could take advantage of him.
Soon, he started having crooked ideas again.
this day.
A crow landed outside his laboratory window.
It used its sharp beak to tap the glass repeatedly.
Huang Ku opened the window.
The crow flapped its wings and flew to the teaching skeleton.
With one scarlet eye askew, his tone was icy:
What's the deal with buying and selling "Angel Drugs"? Why have the returns become so low lately?
Huang Ku revealed a slight smile and explained:
"Because of a major incident recently, I've temporarily suspended my drug sales."
Upon hearing this, the crow immediately bristled, its tone becoming fierce:
"Huang Ku, you've got some nerve! This is a mission assigned by the organization, and you dare to stop it so easily!"
"But this is a really big deal!"
Huang Ku's tone carried a hint of madness.
"How big is it exactly?"
The crow sneered disdainfully, its eyes full of contempt.
I can't tell you.
Huang Ku shook his head, his tone firm, "I want to see my superiors."
A fierce glint flashed in the crow's eyes, and it said in a sharp voice:
"I'm in charge of Green Island City; I'm your superior!"
Huang Ku suddenly burst into laughter, a laugh bordering on maniacal:
"What rank are you in the organization?"
The crow was taken aback, then said proudly:
"P7 level".
"Okay, then I'll also request to be promoted to P7." Huang Ku laughed wildly.
The crow stared intently at Huang Ku, its eyes filled with disbelief.
"You old codger, have you finally gone mad? Do you know how many years it took me to get to this position, and how much I've contributed to the [God's Kingdom Organization]?"
Huang Ku laughed even harder, his tone full of confidence:
"I don't care. The secrets I possess are more than enough to qualify me for this position. Furthermore, I have a condition: once the organization obtains these secrets, I must lead the research!"
The crow finally lost its temper and demanded sharply, "You madman, what are you talking about? What secret do you possess?"
Huang Ku laughed sinisterly, his eyes filled with greed and madness:
"I've discovered a potion that's several times more potent than the [Angel's Potion]. I also know what organization is behind this potion, and the level of its leader."
The crow froze for a moment, a hint of surprise flashing in its eyes.
It took a second look at the withered yellow leaves.
Although this guy seems a bit crazy.
But judging from his expression, he didn't seem to be joking.
If what Huang Ku said is true.
That secret is indeed extremely valuable.
If the Divine Kingdom Organization were to acquire this potion, it would certainly be able to advance the Divine Descent Project much faster.
The crow remained silent for a moment, weighing the pros and cons, and finally nodded:
"I'll pass on your message to your superiors. But until then, resume the sale of [Angel Medicine] immediately!"
Huang Ku laughed smugly, his tone full of confidence: "I will do it. But you are forbidden from speaking to me in a commanding tone again."
The crow cawed angrily twice, then flapped its wings and flew away.
After seeing the crow off, Huang Ku became even more smug.
He left the lab, intending to have a few drinks to celebrate in advance.
However, when he passed through the lobby of the teaching building...
My gaze inadvertently swept over the portraits of past principals on the wall.
The next second, his gaze froze.
One of the paintings depicts a woman in a cheongsam with cool, aloof eyes and stunning beauty.
His eyes were filled with an arrogant disdain for everyone; this was his "respected" teacher—Gu Qinghan.
It was also in the laboratory that day that the head of the Chinese beauty appeared on the nine-headed bird.
Huang Ku was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and his breathing became rapid.
The smugness and madness of just moments before were instantly and completely swallowed up by extreme fear.
Zhang Lingyun resumed her normal routine, still attending university classes every day.
He was completely unaware that an even greater danger was closing in.
That day, he was walking on campus.
I felt something was off about the atmosphere; there were many unfamiliar faces around.
Just as Zhang Lingyun was filled with doubt.
Someone suddenly called out to him:
"Zhang Lingyun, look this way!"
Zhang Lingyun turned her head with some confusion.
Seeing Zhuang Wenwen standing under the camphor tree, she looked exceptionally radiant today.
She wore a cream-colored floral dress, the hem of which swayed above her knees, revealing her slender, fair calves, and a pair of clean white sneakers.
She wore light makeup, with delicate eyebrows, bright eyes, and light pink lip gloss.
It exudes a touch of girlish charm and youthfulness.
"What are you doing here?"
Zhang Lingyun's tone carried a hint of doubt.
"Today is the university's open day, and I'm here to visit."
Zhuang Wenwen said with a smile, her eyes unconsciously fixed on Zhang Lingyun.
"oh."
Zhang Lingyun nodded, instantly understanding.
No wonder there were so many strangers on campus; it turned out to be open day.
"Are you here for a visit too?"
Zhuang Wenwen asked again, her tone tinged with anticipation.
"No, I often attend classes here," Zhang Lingyun replied truthfully.
Just then.
A well-dressed middle-aged couple walked over and stood behind Zhuang Wenwen.
The man exudes a calm and composed demeanor, while the woman's makeup is exquisite.
Both of them smiled and looked at Zhang Lingyun.
Zhuang Wenwen quickly stepped aside to introduce:
"These are my mom and dad."
Zhang Lingyun nodded slightly and spoke politely:
"Hello, Uncle and Aunt."
Zhuang Wenwen's mother spoke first, her face full of smiles, her tone exceptionally warm:
"You must be Zhang Lingyun, the student who was admitted through the special admission program?"
Zhuang Wenwen's father then added:
"Xiao Zhang, you're really something! While Wenwen and the others are still busy preparing for their exams, you've already started your university courses."
Zhang Lingyun smiled modestly and said softly:
"Uncle and Aunt, you flatter me. I just came to audit some classes. I wouldn't dare say I'm anything special."
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Wenwen's father changed his tone and said:
"Hey, Xiao Zhang, do you know what? Your dad and I are old friends, which is why you and Wenwen are so close."
