The system watched as An Li’s demeanor suddenly shifted, a nameless sense of crisis surging through it.
Ming Li glanced around and detected an unknown scent in the air.
At this moment, the system in the space also spoke, "Host, hurry and leave this place! I just detected a large amount of explosives buried beneath here, about to detonate! Dangerous!"
Ming Li frowned and, pulling An Li along, they fled the laboratory.
As they reached the exit, Ming Li glanced at Jiang Yan, who was lying on the ground, unconscious.
After a moment’s thought, Ming Li still picked him up and left with him.
Not long after Ming Li and An Li had left, they heard several earth-shattering explosions from the place they had just been.
An Li turned to look and saw that the area had already become a ruin, enveloped in black smoke.
After returning, Ming Li handed Jiang Yan over to a group of people from the Southern Base and took An Li back to An Li’s Base.
The moment they stepped into An Li’s Base, An Li collapsed onto the ground, startling everyone.
Ming Li crouched down and looked, then said to everyone, "It's fine. His body is just experiencing some issues, he's a little injured, but he'll recover with rest."
An Li's body had previously been controlled by Soul Devour, forcing an immense amount of power upon it. The body certainly couldn't withstand it, so his fainting was completely normal.
System: ...Normal? How is any of this normal?
The system had just scanned An Li's body and found it to be riddled with holes and severely damaged, like a piece of glass covered in cracks, liable to shatter with the slightest touch.
The system held its breath for An Li, but the certain Ming Li remained unruffled, calmly carrying An Li to his room and placing him on the bed. She then instructed someone to bring a large bathtub and proceeded to the laboratory specifically built for her.
After staying in the laboratory for two to three days without rest, Ming Li pushed open the laboratory door and walked out.
Emerging from the laboratory, Ming Li went directly to An Li's room. She poured everything she had been tinkering with in the laboratory over the past two days into the bathtub, and finally, tossed the still-unconscious An Li in as well.
With a *plop!*, countless splashes of water erupted.
Seeing this, the system: ...Host, perhaps we could be a little gentler...
The system only dared to grumble internally, not daring to speak out. Even if it had spoken, Ming Li might not have listened anyway...
Watching the black medicinal liquid in the bathtub begin to churn, the system asked curiously, "Host, what is this?"
Ming Li picked up a nearby towel and wiped her hands, casually replying, "Something good."
The system watched the steam rising from the bathtub and subconsciously swallowed. Good heavens! The host wasn't planning on cooking this guy, was she?! Was she really that insane?
However... would a cooked zombie taste good...
Thinking this, the system swallowed again.
At this moment, An Yu Chu knocked on the door and entered.
"Lili, there are some people at the base entrance who say they are looking for you. Do you want to go see them?"
Upon hearing this, Ming Li raised an eyebrow. Looking for her? Who could it be?
Ming Li pondered for a moment, then decided to go out.
As soon as she arrived at the base's reception hall, Ming Li met a pair of large eyes sparkling with a dazzling light.
Ming Li’s lips twitched slightly. This person seemed a little familiar...
