Chapter 979: Huge Harvest
The commotion in the control chamber soon fell silent. The screams also swiftly faded.
Sun Mo didn’t dare to be careless. He stayed for another half an hour in the chamber for the sake of caution before he opened the defensive door.
The floor opened up and there was immediately green liquid flowing down. There was also a thick smell of chemical compounds.
“Is this some kind of disinfectant?”
Sun Mo frowned and prepared to jump up. However, An Xinhui did so before him. She was worried about Sun Mo and didn’t want him to take any risk.
“There’s no corpse?”
An Xinhui checked the surroundings but didn’t discover even a single trace of it. She couldn’t help but be shocked. Wasn’t the attacking might of this facility a little too terrifying?
“He should have died thoroughly.”
Sun Mo heaved a sigh of relief.
Honestly, Sun Mo succeeded by a lucky stroke.
The Green-robed Ancestor was proficient in using gu-bugs. Moreover, the cultivation art he trained in was very bizarre and profound. He had been surrounded by the Saint Gate several times, but he had always managed to depend on this skill of changing into a cloud of bugs to escape successfully.
This time around, the Green-robed Ancestor wanted to use this trick again, but the control chamber was completely sealed. Also, those lasers, chemical liquid, etc, destroyed the bugs completely, changing them into atoms before dissolving them into gene fragments.
The Green-robed Ancestor had truly died.
“You should inspect it one more time!”
Sun Mo was still worried. After warning An Xinhui, he sat back before the operating desk and was prepared to get himself familiar with this comprehensive experimental lab.
Even if their school had no way to ascend to the next grade, even if they received no battle spoils, they had profited immensely just by monopolizing this experimental lab.
One could say that for the next hundred years, the Central Province Academy would possess an overwhelming advantage in botany and various subjects.
Sun Mo did a search and looked at the information kept inside the vast data vault. He then grew increasingly agitated.
“Is there a huge harvest?”
An Xinhui asked with a smile.
“Yes!”
Sun Mo was excited. “I originally thought that this was just an experimental lab. In reality, it is an ecology battleship, and its main function isn’t to nurture species. Rather, it is used for exploration and expeditions to collect species that have never been seen before. They would then undergo experiments and be recorded…”
“You mean…”
An Xinhui was very intelligent, having guessed the underlying meaning. After that, she also grew joyful.
“It possesses a vast data vault that has detailed information about a lot of darkness species.”
Since the Xisi people could construct an ecology battleship, their level of technology was super advanced without needing to describe it. Hence, the data they gained from the experiments could be used directly.
When people of the Middle-Earth refined pills, they would depend on their experience and intuition to determine how much of a certain ingredient to use. However, when the Xisi people were concocting medicine, the quantity of ingredients that needed to be used was extremely precise.
Naturally, the people from Middle-Earth did this because they wanted to keep the prescription a secret in case the concoction method was leaked.
“There’s even a specimen chamber?”
Sun Mo made the composition map of the battleship appear on the monitor screen. The ecology garden was definitely damaged, and the items in the weapon warehouse must have rusted.
“Let’s act. Now that everyone here is annihilated, we should quickly get our people to move stuff and get as many things we can get.”
An Xinhui grew anxious.
After all, the Central Province Academy wasn’t the only power here.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Don’t be anxious.”
Sun Mo smiled. “This battleship belongs to us. No one can snatch it.”
“Mn?”
An Xinhui didn’t understand.
“This battleship has always been drifting around, and it only reached here by chance. If not, it would have been discovered a long time ago.”
Sun Mo’s mastery of the operations grew increasingly proficient. “I’ve done a check. The remaining energy is enough to activate the engine once more and bring this battleship away from here. However, I cannot be sure where it will end up next.”
An Xinhui was completely confused as she heard Sun Mo’s explanation. There were many words she didn’t understand, but she roughly understood the general meaning and the important points.
“What if it drifted to an even more dangerous place?”
An Xinhui was worried.
Sun Mo shrugged. “That would depend on luck. Its energy comes from the photosynthesis effect from those plants. In any case, it requires 10 years of energy accumulation to activate the engine once.”
“That long?”
An Xinhui still made her decision. “Let’s give these people seven days to evacuate. After that, we will activate the engine. The ones who choose to stay here can only pray that their fates are good.”
“Seven days is too long; three days is the max. If they don’t want to leave, they should just wait for death.”
Sun Mo decided to be cold-blooded for once.
The more they delayed, the more battle spoils would be lost. Leaving aside the things in the weapon warehouse and specimen chamber, the wild herbs outside also belonged to Sun Mo.
“Alright, three days then!”
After settling this major matter, An Xinhui placed a jadestone that resembled a summer cicada before Sun Mo.
“What is this?”
Sun Mo activated Divine Sight.
“White jade cicada, a darkness lifeform and it has the miraculous effect of being able to devour all poisonous substances in the world. After consuming this cicada, one would be immune to poison.”
“A white jade cicada, it is a creature ranked #9 on the darkness species listings.”
An Xinhui also didn’t expect she would actually encounter such a rare species here.
Sun Mo frowned. “Did it ‘explode’ from the Green-robed Ancestor?”
“Explode?”
An Xinhui was astonished. What did that mean? “This should be something the Green-robed Ancestor left behind. No wonder his attainments in gu-bugs and botany are so high. With this item, he basically didn’t need to fear any poison.”
This item was a natural counter to poison masters and was also the secret treasure poison masters wanted the most.
“Can it resolve the gu-poison Saint Ten-Thousand Leaves administered?”
Sun Mo’s expression brightened. action
“Wouldn’t we know once we try it?”
An Xinhui smiled. “In any case, you won’t make a loss if you eat this.”
Yet, Sun Mo hesitated.
“What’s wrong?”
An XInhui was bewildered. After that, she had a realization. “Are you worried about Tantai Yutang?”
She knew that the youth had a problem with his body, and he didn’t have many years to live.
“Mn, this thing should be able to detoxify the poison in his body.”
Sun Mo knew that the sickly invalid’s purpose of acknowledging him as a teacher wasn’t pure. However, he was much more respectful now.
“Even if it could do so, you should be the first one to eat it. Firstly, the gu-poison from your body comes from the Saint Ten-Thousand Leaves. It is too fierce and the more you delay the treatment, the greater the damage you will suffer.”
An Xinhui earnestly spoke, “Secondly, the value of you living on is greater. You can help many students change their fates.”
In the Nine Provinces, there were no sayings of equality. The life of an emperor was equivalent to several tens of thousands of his citizens’. Everyone had to die if the emperor ordered it. This was what they believed in.
“If Tantai Yutang really treats you as his personal teacher, even if you gave him this white jade cicada, he wouldn’t eat it.”
Despite saying so much, An Xinhui actually had a selfish motive. She naturally hoped that Sun Mo could live long and have good health.
“Let’s wait and see.”
Sun Mo sighed and just when he wanted to put away the white jade cicada, An Xinhui grabbed over and stuffed it into his mouth.
Gurgle!
Sun Mo swallowed it down.
“…”
Sun Mo was very depressed.
“You don’t have to feel guilty. I’m forcing you to eat it.”
An Xinhui took up the responsibility.
Sun Mo shook his head. “I’m a man. I naturally have the guts to bear this responsibility.”
Sun Mo was depressed because he actually wanted to consume the white jade cicada. The reason was because the sickly invalid’s status in his heart wasn’t that high.
If Li Ziqi, Lu Zhiruo, or even Ying Baiwu was in Tantai Yutang’s place, Sun Mo would not hesitate and would generously order them to eat the white jade cicada.
(So, I really don’t have true impartiality!)
“Only by living on would you have a chance to dispel the poison in Tantai Yutang’s body.”
An Xinhui consoled Sun Mo.
“Mn, let us leave as well!”
Sun Mo turned the system off.
The two of them came out and saw the plants covered everywhere. It was like an overcoat of green paint had been poured on the land.
“Master, boohoohoo, I almost became fertilizer.”
The Holy Pharaoh limped his way over.
Luckily, it was an insect and the plants didn’t feel too much enmity toward it. Also, the scarab’s strength wasn’t weak so it managed to escape from this calamity. But even so, it was almost frightened to death.
“How many living people are there in the surroundings?”
Sun Mo summoned Little Silver.
“Everyone died.” The Holy Pharaoh was afraid. “Let us quickly leave this hell-like place, shall we?”
“Mn!”
Sun Mo increased his speed and broke into a run. However, he halted a few steps later because An Xinhui didn’t move. “What’s wrong?”
“Someone is here!”
An Xinhui pulled out her sword and surveyed her surroundings warily.
“Huh?”
Sun Mo pricked his ears to listen. The Retaliation Storm didn’t activate, and this meant that the other party felt no hostility toward him. Was it the green-skinned female?
“Fangcao, is it you?”
An Xinhui immediately looked over and asked, “Who is Fangcao?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“An aboriginal from the peace faction,” Sun Mo explained in a low voice.
“I didn’t expect that Teacher Sun would be acquainted with some aboriginals. Truly, you have a wide variety of friends, such an enviable quality!”
A mellow and rich voice rang out, sounding like a kindly and warm-hearted uncle from next door.
Sun Mo turned his head, while An Xinhui actually heaved a sigh of relief as she bowed in greeting.
“Greetings to Sect Lord!”
“Sect Lord?”
When Sun Mo heard this, his eyelids twitched violently. Wasn’t he the highest authority wielder of the Saint Gate? An existence that was worshipped by hundreds of thousands of great teachers?
The Sect Lord smiled and seemed very easygoing.
There were no halos or auspicious signs around this person. He also didn’t have a square-shaped face that would seem imposing without him being angry. He simply looked like a friendly uncle next door.
However, Sun Mo knew that this person was a Secondary Saint, a super genius that reached this realm before he was 40 years old.
“Teacher An!”
Su Taiqing smiled. Although he wasn’t handsome, his disposition was good and would cause people to involuntarily relax their wariness and drink a cup of afternoon tea with him, wanting to chat about life and everything else.
“I wonder how much he has seen?”
Sun Mo sank into conflict. If the other party asked about the situation, how much should he reveal?
If he concealed things and the other party spotted it, he would have offended this major character.
“You guys must be weary. You two should return to the encampment first and rest.”
Su Taiqing didn’t have many things to ask. After he cast a deep glance at Sun Mo, he entered the control chamber.
“He’s so easy to talk to.” Sun Mo was surprised.
“Sect Lord Su is a very good person.”
An Xinhui had heard Su Taiqing’s lectures before. Regardless of the content, style, or charisma, he was not in any way inferior to Sun Mo.
“Do you think he understands the Xisi Language?”
Sun Mo was worried.
“Even if he didn’t know it now, as long as there are books about it, he would understand it in a few days. Hence, we better settle this quickly.”
An Xinhui urged.
…
In a villa of the Central Province Academy.
Liu Mubai sat on a sofa and kept shaking his legs.
“I should have stayed behind!”
Liu Mubai felt self-reproach.
Murong Mingyue also had a heavy look on her face and wanted to go and help. But other than Sun Mo, none of them could open the teleportation gate.
“What should we do now?”
Jin Mujie was very panicky. If Sun Mo and An Xinhui both died, the Central Province Academy would be finished.
“My life was saved by Teacher Sun, so I will use all my life and protect this school until the end.”
Liu Mubai vowed, wanting to repay Sun Mo for the kindness of saving his life.
Ding!
Favorable impression points +10,000. Reverence (15,200/100,000).
“Repay me next time then!”
Sun Mo’s voice suddenly drifted over, causing the three people here to be filled with joy.
