Furong dared not speak, and only focused on preparing for the operation.
Ghost Shark's surgery was very special because the amount of liquid Originium in her body was enough to infect a city if it were to spread. Such a high concentration of liquid Originium would immediately worsen the Oripathy of the surgeon if they accidentally came into contact with it, and they might even die on the spot.
Luo Zhen wasn't afraid, because he was human and Oripathy couldn't infect humans, and he had prepared a solution for it.
On the operating table, Kal'tsit, who can be resurrected, is the chief surgeon, and Skadi, who has a very strong resistance to Oripathy, is her assistant.
The scalpel precisely cut open part of the Ghost Shark's spine, and refined liquid Originium flowed down, which she quickly drained away using a catheter.
The conduit extends into a hollow space, the one opened by Luo Zhen, with Rhodes Island's Originium refining equipment at the other end.
As the core energy source of Terra, Originium has a well-developed mining and refining technology. Once the liquid Originium is transported there and loaded, the smelting process can begin immediately.
Although it contains spinal fluid and blood, that's not a problem. Even if you stuff the entire Ghost Shark inside, you can still complete the refining process.
Kal'tsit saw all of this without being surprised. She had already decided that Luo Zhen was a man of the past, and that he could calmly accept even the resurrection of the dead.
The surgery was completed quickly. Without any hesitation, most of the liquid Originium in the Ghost Shark's body was expelled. The remaining amount was nothing to the Deepsea Hunter and had no impact whatsoever.
Of course, this is on the premise that you are in good health.
The Ghost Shark has now lost three-quarters of its blood, almost all of its spinal fluid, and a large amount of brain matter.
It can be said that once the life support equipment is removed, death is all that awaits her.
Luo Zhen took out a bottle containing a clear liquid. As soon as he opened the cap, a refreshing fragrance wafted out, which was invigorating.
Luo Zhen stood in front of Ghost Shark and poured the liquid down. Almost immediately, Ghost Shark's wounds began to heal, its body spontaneously produced blood, the drained spinal fluid and brain matter regenerated, and its nerves, which had been eroded and decayed by the liquid source stone, were completely renewed.
This near-miraculous scene left Kal'tsit staring without blinking: "What is that?"
"Never seen this before, have you? This is the power of abundance."
Luo Zhen smiled. This was collected from Bai Lu. As a dragon lord who was reborn from flesh and blood in an instant, she could heal illnesses and injuries simply by touching her and shedding tears. The function of her saliva was even more miraculous. When the old dragon master was disemboweled by his own child, it was she who healed him by spitting on him.
Before Luo Zhen arrived, he deliberately rubbed Bai Lu's faucet vigorously, squeezing out all her saliva, filling a full bottle, which was definitely enough.
As a result, Bai Lu even took several bites of him.
Even if it's not enough, it doesn't matter. He still has the Emperor's Banner to back him up. If he really kills Ghost Shark, he can collect her soul into the Emperor's Banner, clone her body, and put it back in.
That's the confidence of Brother Gua.
The wound didn't even leave a scar. Ghost Shark immediately opened her eyes and saw Luo Zhen under the operating lights. Her consciousness was still a little hazy, but she felt that Luo Zhen had a halo around his head, which looked just like a god.
"Did you hear my prayer?"
She extended her hands to Luo Zhen.
In the dreamlike state tormented by Originium, she often prayed to gods or evil deities. At this time, the dream and reality overlapped, giving her the illusion of seeing a god.
[Commission completed, received 3,000 Commission Crystals]
Luo Zhen grasped her hand: "Indeed, some people call me the Messiah, but I do not consider myself a god."
Ghost Shark gradually regained consciousness. She sat up, feeling a long-lost sense of refreshment, no longer tormented by illusions and pain.
She gently kissed Luo Zhen's fingertips, her smile serene, possessing a touch of nun's holiness: "You have freed me from eternal torment; you are my God, my Lord."
"I will become your most loyal blade, sawing through all enemies."
Luo Zhen felt quite pleased to be sworn to loyalty by a beautiful girl with white hair and red eyes.
Skadi Skadi walked up to Specter: "Shark, how did you become like this?"
She was unaware of this and was preparing to complete a mission for Rhodes Island in exchange for the truth of the matter when she encountered Rhodes Island before she even began.
"It is the Deep Sea Cult, an organization that believes in the descendants of the sea."
It was Luo Zhen who spoke, "If you want to avenge her, you can go to Saltwind City in Iberia. The Deep Sea Order exists there."
"Of course I'll take revenge myself."
A morbid smile spread across Ghost Shark's face. "I'm going to kill them all!"
Skadi said, "Shark, I'll go with you."
"Be careful not to overturn."
Luo Zhen asked, "Do you need my help?"
"You don't need to bother with such a small matter."
"These dregs will be crushed very quickly," Ghost Shark said.
Luo Zhen was disappointed that he couldn't get a quest, and wished the two of them a safe journey. If anything happened, Skadi could enter the quest hut and ask him for help.
Seeing that no one was around, Kal'tsit cautiously asked Rozen, "What are your thoughts on this land now?"
"The ultimate cesspool."
Luo Zhen succinctly stated, "You spent thirteen thousand years and this is how you turned this land into this? Useless Hakimi!"
Kal'tsit was sweating profusely, feeling a sense of oppression reminiscent of being scolded by Priss when she was a cat.
Luo Zhen said, "I know what you want to ask. I have no interest in Project Originium and have no intention of helping Cyber Ghost. As for whether I help you or not, that depends on my mood."
“I really don’t have the talent for management, so I’ll go and wake up the doctor.”
Green Cat just wanted to wake up her old father immediately so he could take the pressure off her. Even without Rhodes Island, she had this plan. She was already exhausted from managing Rhodes Island and felt like she couldn't keep going.
After leaving Rhodes Island and arriving in Lungmen, Luo Zhen didn't forget his mission to research his newly acquired [Mental Reconstruction] ability. Was there a more suitable test subject than Black Serpent?
Talulah is learning how to govern Lungmen from Wei Yanwu. It is comfortable for those in power to be mediocre or incompetent, but doing good things and great things is very complicated.
Even Wei Yanwu could not provide answers to all the questions.
Talulah gets a headache as soon as she starts class, and she encounters even more problems when she tries to do things in practice. Seeing Rōzō is like seeing a savior.
"Luo Zhen!"
She grabbed Luo Zhen's leg, tears welling in her eyes, and said, "Let's go attack Ursus, or Victoria."
"no!"
Wei Yanwu grabbed Talulah's dragon horns, "What kind of weak appearance do you have? What kind of tears do you have? Hurry up and learn how to govern Lungmen!"
His words were filled with resentment, his eyes were dark-circled and puffy, and if you looked closely, you could also see that his legs were swaying slightly.
He doesn't resemble a true dragon at all, nor a peerless master; he looks like one of those spoiled brats whose bodies have been hollowed out by wine and women.
"Dude, what's wrong with you? Is this still a real dragon?"
Luo Zhen was very curious, "Even if it's for pregnancy care, it shouldn't result in such a loss, right?"
Wei Yanwu rolled his eyes at Luo Zhen, not wanting to talk to him at all.
He learned for the first time that his wife, Wen Yue, was actually interested in her pregnant husband. She was so excited when she saw him with his big belly and could feel the baby moving.
Every time he sat on him, he would writhe for at least two hours. Wei Yanwu was completely numb, not only feeling nothing, but also a little scared.
When he tried to refuse, Lady Wenyue still argued vehemently:
"Didn't you say you didn't want this child? Strenuous exercise during pregnancy can affect the fetus and may lead to miscarriage. I'm trying to help you. Do you really want to have the baby?"
This left Wei Yanwu speechless, forcing him to silently endure the exploitation.
Most importantly, it happens more than once a day, before and after meals, as well as sleeping in late in the morning, taking a nap at noon, and exercising normally in the evening.
Unless he's busy with official duties or uses teaching Talulah as an excuse, he can't escape.
Wei Yanwu felt frustrated at the thought, especially what if Talulah couldn't learn it? What if Luo Zhen broke the contract?
Even during the little time I had to rest, I was filled with anxiety and couldn't sleep well at all.
He felt that in a while, his hair would fall out.
He couldn't complain to Luo Zhen about any of these things. Who would complain to another man about their wife's insatiable demands and their inability to meet them?
Seeing that he didn't get a reply, Luo Zhen asked Talulah, "Isn't Lungmen quite easy? If you can't govern Lungmen, how can you govern Ursus?"
“The project to transform the slums into the downtown area is already underway, and a bill to improve the status of infected people and emulate the Great Yan has been passed, but this is all I can do.”
Talulah was very distressed. "The renovation project is okay, but the discriminatory attitude towards infected people in Lungmen is deeply rooted. It can only be changed slowly over time. There's not much I can do."
"More importantly, I feel like I can't fully utilize my abilities at Lungmen."
Talulah understood this deeply: "Lungmen has been established for so long that the nobles are all related by marriage. The relationships are very complex, with each of them having their own interests in the other. To carry out sweeping reforms would not only be difficult, but would also take a very long time."
Er Yinyi Sanwu Jiuliu said, "It turns out she's not good at internal strife."
Luo Zhen laughed and said, "Don't forget, the black snake inside you made Wei Yanwu suffer twice. Its political skills are even better than his. Why not let the black snake help you fight against those politicians?"
Before Wei Yanwu arrived at Lungmen, Black Serpent secretly controlled Lungmen, but was eventually driven away by Wei Yanwu and his good brother Edward.
He knew this territory all too well.
"How could Black Snake possibly help me?"
Talulah said, "This kind of guy only knows how to plot against me."
Wei Yanwu strongly agreed: "Black Snake is cunning and scheming, full of bad intentions. We can't trust him."
Luo Zhen said, "Of course I have my own methods."
His hand brushed over Talulah's head, and [Mental Reforging] was activated, pulling the black snake out directly.
Chapter 60 Talulah: Black Serpent, please guide me! / The True Dragon desires liberation.
The black snake in Luo Zhen's hand resembles Talulah, but it is much more alluring than the stereotypical straight-man Talulah.
Even though she looks, has the same figure and dress as Talulah, she is much more alluring when she stands there. One look at her makes you want to tear off her clothes and make her cry.
Talulah is different. She's a real man, and people who see her only see her as a good brother or a close friend. They can't muster any romantic feelings for her.
"Oh, Talulah."
Luo Zhen sighed, causing Talulah's expression to falter: "Am I really that unfeminine?"
"What do you think?"
Luo Zhen showed her the black snake, and Talulah clenched her fists in resentment as she looked at the face that was exactly the same as her own.
That wretched Koschke! You must have stolen my femininity, leaving me to suffer such humiliation. You inherently evil black snake, I will personally destroy you sooner or later!
Wei Yanwu couldn't help but laugh out loud. His niece was indeed very tough, and in some ways, she was quite suitable as a commander to lead her subordinates. She had a unique personal charm.
He subconsciously touched his bulging belly. Under Wen Yue's guidance, this gradually became a habit. He didn't even realize that when he touched his belly, a maternal glow would always appear on his face.
