These three words immediately made Zheng Qing think of the dark conference room with seven "devils" and the commissions he had received from the Seven Deadly Sins. He couldn't help rolling his eyes in his heart - sure enough, just as he initially guessed, those commissions were inseparable from the crow!
"...After paying a huge price, Thomas finally found a way to help me get some of your flesh and blood."
Professor Monteria's next sentence made the young wizard snort coldly again - without a doubt, what the professor should be talking about was the incident of Thomas' "kidnapping" himself - but the professor didn't seem to care about the boy's slight misconduct, and still maintained his tepid attitude, and slowly told him:
"The experimental results are gratifying. Facts have proved that your flesh and blood indeed contains a very strange substance. No, it cannot be described as "matter". In a sense, I would rather call it "rules"... Your blood and flesh carry a miraculous rule, which can prevent the erosion from crossing the boundary and stop the collapse of flesh and blood from collapsing. Just like when the crowd at the rally was trampled, a powerful external force suddenly intervened, causing the crowd to restore some order..."
——Yes! It’s order!
The young wizard roared in his heart, but his face was not visible at all. The hideous face of the edge type squeezed out a hypocritical smile and carefully proposed: "—If you need help, I can produce a little flesh and blood every month to support your cutting-edge magic research. How about it? If you are not at ease, we can sign the contract with the highest degree of constraints!"
In order to express his kindness, he not only re-used the word "you", but also called the crows' illegal bloodline transformation experiment "frontier magic".
Unfortunately, Professor Monteria did not accept his kindness.
"You can't help me."
The sound echoing over the altar was a little erratic, as if the speaker was shaking his head: "In fact, I prepared more than one inhibitor for the flesh and blood brought back by Thomas. But only the first one had the best effect, delaying the collapse of my body for a whole week, but immediately afterwards, the second inhibitor was a little less effective and could only last for six days; then the third one, the fourth one, the inhibitor failed faster and faster - it is certain that the ‘rules’ substances in the inhibitor did not decay with time - from the perspective of potions, small doses and high frequency use increased the resistance of the collapsed tissues in my body to the inhibitor.
Based on the number of samples Thomas got and according to the laboratory's speculation, if you want to completely relieve my physical collapse, you probably need to eat your whole body to satisfy my dying desire. But we all know that it is impossible. So, very sorry, you can't help me."
Zheng Qing was not surprised by the professor's rejection.
He had no hope for this proposal.
However, after hearing that the crows' laboratory had really carefully calculated how much flesh and blood was needed to curse the professor's body's tendency to collapse, the young wizard couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Sure enough, the worst malice should be used to guess those lunatics!
“—Where is the school? Don’t the school know?”
He interrupted the professor again and again in a rude manner. Although his question was a little vague, it did not prevent Professor Monteria from easily understanding what he wanted to express.
"School?"
When the slightly mechanical tone above the altar read these two words in a rhetorical tone, Zheng Qing seemed to see Professor Monteria standing in front of him, staring at his blue-gray eyes, the corners of his mouth were slightly twisted, and a sarcastic smile appeared.
"——The school has been alert to me for a long time." He gave a surprising answer: "Do you remember the assembly order that the school suddenly issued to you in the early hours of last weekend?"
Although it's just a simple tip.
Zheng Qing immediately remembered that strange night - the young wizards in the 403 dormitory were still sighing, and finally a stable weekend passed. In the early morning, the door of the 403 dormitory was knocked by the leader of the teaching assistant team, and Zhang Yu escorted Zheng Qing straight to the laboratory of the Giant God Soldier.
He remembered it very clearly that Zhang Yu specifically asked him to wear a mask that day.
After entering the resonance room and driving the edge type, the group stayed in the hall for a long time before receiving a vague mission goal from Professor Ruoyu - to patrol the Silent Forest.
The purposeless search at that time made Zheng Qing think that the school had just found a reason to conduct an emergency night training to test the edge type.
"——I was deteriorating again that night. In order to avoid unnecessary impact, I quietly left the school and went to a private laboratory to retreat. However, during this process, I accidentally 'dumped' several schools to monitor my group. So some people in the school became nervous. Not only did I immediately stuff you into the Giant God Soldier Laboratory, but I also sent several hunting teams to destroy several laboratories they had known for a long time... I think this is probably a warning to some extent."
Zheng Qing was speechless.
Since the school sent someone to monitor Professor Monteria, I think it was because he knew his identity. It was so annoying that he knew but didn't deal with it.
At the same time, he also thought of what Colma said to him that night - as far as the first university is now, no place is safer than the Giant Gods Project Team's station. Since the school knew that someone would pose a threat to him and did not deal with it, it also nervously protected himself and showed a completely schizophrenia-like behavior pattern.
That night, the rope in the silent forest lasted for seven or eight hours. Zheng Qing and others found nothing, but before class, they suddenly received the order to end the task.
It was inexplicably gone.
The one who came back was inexplicably surprised.
Thinking about it at this moment, he suddenly felt a little more confident in his heart.
"So you went back to school the next morning?" Although the boy used a question, his tone was very certain.
Professor Monteria chuckled softly.
"I always think you're smart, but you're so protected so sometimes you'll look a little stupid."
When he said this, he seemed particularly sincere, which made Zheng Qing not know whether he was praising himself or cursing others: "——When it comes to 'stupid', I remembered a sentence that someone once said: The opposite of faith is not suspicion, but fear, similarity, the opposite of talent is not stupidity, but ordinary. People can tolerate other people's stupidity, but difficult to accept their ordinaryness - the name Ruoyu (it seems stupid) was born on this. I think you are actually quite suitable for this name."
