Chapter 289 Trying Lin Lang's Alchemy Method

"Lin Lang, Sister Xina, we are back!"

Outside the door!

Zhixi's clear and pleasant voice sounded like a silver bell, with a bit of joy and excitement.

Then, there was a slight sound of footsteps, and it was obvious that the two had walked to the door.

Lin Lang was originally sitting on the sofa and daydreaming. When he heard this familiar voice, he waved his hand casually and released a spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy was as agile as his hand-

Turning the door handle, gently pushing, the door slowly opened.

Zhixi and Ji Qianlan stood side by side outside the door.

Zhixi smiled and looked relaxed.

Although Ji Qianlan also smiled, she still had a little fatigue on her face after a day of fighting and breakthroughs.

Lin Lang's eyes immediately fell on Ji Qianlan:

[Ji Qianlan]

[Appearance: 7.5 points]

[Charge: 0 times]

[Loyalty: 10%]

[Return rate: 100]

[Combat power: B++]

[Ability: Shadow Slash (level 8)]

"She really succeeded in breaking through."

Lin Lang nodded secretly.

His eyes slowly moved down along Ji Qianlan's arm, and finally fell on the long sword tightly held in her hand.

On the blade, there was an extremely powerful and mysterious aura!

The wisps of black air were wrapped around it like a smart snake, and under the dim light, it flashed with a strange luster, as if silently telling its transformation and strength after the battle.

This is the blessing of the law of darkness on this weapon!

In the future, as Ji Qianlan kills more enemies, it will become stronger!

…

Ji Qianlan looked at Lin Lang expectantly, and asked with a hint of urgency in her voice:

"Coach Lin, when do we set out tomorrow?"

Her eyes were full of desire for the next challenge-

After today's battle, she had a new understanding of her own strength!

Naturally, she was looking forward to continuing to improve under Lin Lang's leadership!

Break through A-level as soon as possible!

But upon hearing this, Lin Lang said calmly:

"No hurry. Go back and review what you have learned today and settle down."

His voice was neither fast nor slow, but it carried an irresistible force.

Although he only taught Ji Qianlan for an hour today!

But as long as Ji Qianlan can thoroughly understand what he has learned in this hour!

Then it is not difficult to break through to A-level!

In fact!

With his unique talent of the Saint Body of Martial Arts, Lin Lang's understanding and judgment of martial arts have reached a state of transcendence.

Every skill and every key point he taught Ji Qianlan in that hour was carefully considered!

Like a precise key, it can unlock the shackles on the road to martial arts advancement, allowing the ability of "Shadow Slash" to undergo a complete transformation.

For Ji Qianlan, Lin Lang already had a clear plan in his mind -

He knew that Ji Qianlan had great potential.

When Ji Qianlan's "Shadow Slash" ability reaches level 10, he will take out the limit fruit for her to take.

The limit fruit contains powerful energy and can force the evolution of ability.

Once Ji Qianlan takes the limit fruit, with her current foundation and progress speed, it will be a natural thing for her to reach the strength of A + level.

And after that!

As long as she can continue to fight, accumulate rich experience in one actual battle after another, and constantly hone herself!

Impacting the top strength of S level is not an unattainable dream.

...

"Yes! Instructor Lin!"

Ji Qianlan listened to Lin Lang's words, her eyes were firm, and she nodded heavily!

Her trust in Lin Lang has reached its peak -

Instructor Lin must be right!

No matter what he asked me to do, I just had to do it!

Obey the arrangement!

Go all out!

At that moment, she secretly swore in her heart -

After returning, she must devote herself to reviewing!

Understand every detail taught by Lin Lang!

Never let down Instructor Lin's teaching!

...

Ji Qianlan bowed to Lin Lang, then turned and left.

Her figure gradually disappeared in the distance.

Lin Lang gently closed the door.

Turned back to the living room and was about to sit down to rest.

But he heard Zhixi muttering on the side:

"It's so dry, it's so dry! I'm uncomfortable all over, I have to go to the water quickly!"

As soon as the voice fell!

Zhixi was like a bird eager to return to its nest, running towards the bathroom in a hurry.

Her steps were brisk and hurried, as if if she delayed for a second, her body would wither due to dryness.

As soon as she entered the bathroom!

Zhixi made a light "plop" sound and sank into the water.

In an instant!

A strange change happened---

Her legs gradually merged and turned into a fish tail covered with gorgeous scales, swaying gently in the water.

The fish tail shone with colorful luster, contrasting with the clear water in the bathtub, like a dream.

Zhixi closed her eyes comfortably, leaned her head on the edge of the bathtub, and enjoyed the water's embrace.

In the water, she felt like she had returned to her warmest hometown, and all her fatigue and discomfort disappeared at this moment.

Lin Lang walked to the bathroom door, looking at Zhixi's comfortable appearance in the water, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

Then he walked in.

"Hmm?"

When Zhi Xi saw him suddenly coming in, she subconsciously covered her chest and asked him with a wary look:

"What are you doing?"

Lin Lang said: "This is the bathroom, what else can you do in here, of course, take a shower!"

"Hate!"

Not long!

Water splashes in the bathtub!

…

The other side of the Secret Service!

In the spacious and bright working area of ​​the elixir department!

A group of alchemists in white coats were concentrating on their work.

Their method of refining alchemy is very similar to that of scientists doing chemical experiments in chemical laboratories——

The experimental table is filled with various complex instruments and equipment. The glass vessels contain medicines of different colors. The pipes and circuits are intertwined, making it look precise and complex.

At this time, the whole space was filled with a tense atmosphere. Everyone held their breath and stared at the alchemy equipment in front of them.

I saw them operating various tools in their hands, carefully controlling the amount of reagents added, the temperature of the reaction and the passage of time...

Every movement is rigorous and focused, as if they are engaged in a life-or-death battle.

finally!

After everyone waited and suffered for a long time, a boiler with white steam emitted a slight "sizzling" sound.

An alchemist wearing goggles took a deep breath, slowly stretched out his hand, and held the switch of the boiler.

With a crisp sound of "click"!

The boiler cover slowly opened, and a strong medicinal fragrance instantly spread, filling the entire room!

"look!"

Someone excitedly pointed to the inside of the boiler, his voice trembling slightly with excitement.

I saw a black pill lying quietly in the center of the boiler. The surface of the pill exuded a faint halo, and the surrounding medicinal gas was dense. It was obviously a high-quality pill!

"We succeeded! We successfully refined the Qi Gathering Pill!"

I don’t know who shouted out first. This shout was like a fire, instantly igniting everyone’s passion.

The entire elixir department instantly burst into excitement, with cheers and applause coming one after another.

People put down their work and gathered around, wanting to see with their own eyes the result of their countless efforts.

Wu Thant stood in the crowd, with a confident and proud smile on his face.

She raised her chin slightly and said with a hint of pride in her tone:

"I have said before that we will definitely succeed! Without those pretenders to cause trouble, we will only go faster!"

As she spoke, she glanced at the colleagues around her, as if waiting for their approval.

Everyone nodded in agreement and agreed with Wu Thant's words.

In this joyous atmosphere of success, everyone seemed to have forgotten about Lin Lang's arrival and the suggestions he made.

After saying that, Wu Dan seemed to suddenly remember something and turned to look at the assistant beside him.

There was a trace of provocation in her eyes, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, revealing a slightly sarcastic smile, and said:

"What else do you have to say? Don't believe in science, but believe in a liar?"

When asked by Wu Dan, the little assistant's face instantly turned red.

She lowered her head, holding her clothes uneasily with her hands, her eyes filled with embarrassment and embarrassment.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end nothing came out.

Her voice seemed so insignificant amidst the cheers celebrating success.

And the trace of trust she had in Lin Lang was overwhelmed by everyone's doubts and ridicule.

…

Wu Dan's face was filled with a confident smile. After scanning the crowd, he decisively ordered:

"Find someone to test the medicine!"

Her voice was firm and powerful, with an unquestionable aura, as if success was already within her grasp.

"Okay, Sister Wu, I'll make arrangements right away."

An assistant responded immediately and hurriedly turned around and went out.

Not long after, he led a superpower into the laboratory.

This superpower looks a little thin. Standing among a group of scientific researchers in white coats, he looks increasingly out of place.

but!

His ability is "Recovery"!

This makes his physique the closest to that of ordinary people, but at the same time, he has stronger vitality than ordinary people. It is perfect for testing medicine!

Wu Thant and others acted quickly, with focused and serious eyes.

"Be careful and attach this electrode to his wrist."

While Wu Dan was directing, he personally picked up a wire and carefully connected it to the superpower's chest.

"This position is critical because it can accurately monitor changes in his vital signs."

…

The surrounding assistants cooperated in an orderly manner.

soon!

The superpower's body is covered with various wires, and these wires are connected to complex instruments on the side. The dense lines are like an invisible net, covering the superpower.

After everything was ready, Wu Dan personally picked up the Qi Gathering Pill that condensed everyone's blood, handed it to the superpower, and said as gently as possible:

"Come on, eat this, and then carefully feel the changes in your body."

The superpower looked at the elixir, then at the expectant eyes around him, took a deep breath, took the elixir and drank it.

Then, he closed his eyes and stood quietly, feeling the changes in his body wholeheartedly.

Everyone around him fell silent, staring at him closely. The only sound in the room was the slight "beeping" of the instrument, which seemed to hit everyone's heart.

Time passed by minute by minute, and every second seemed extremely long.

After a while, the superpower slowly opened his eyes and nodded gently. Although the voice was not loud, it was particularly clear in this quiet room:

"My energy is recovering!"

Upon hearing this news, everyone was stunned at first, and then burst into cheers.

"Success! We really succeeded!"

A young assistant jumped up excitedly, with an excited smile on his face.

Everyone hugged and clapped each other, and their joy was beyond words.

This means that their efforts during this period have not been in vain. Countless days and nights of research and attempts have finally exchanged for the results of this moment.

No mistakes in one song, one post, one content, one book, one bar, one 6, one 9!

Wu Dan was so proud that her face flushed. She waved her arms excitedly and said loudly:

"I told you we can succeed! Go call Mr. Liu and convince him! See if we can make good pills with scientific methods!"

Her eyes flashed with pride, as if announcing their victory to the world.

However!

Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of success, Wu Dan's assistant, the girl who had been standing in the corner, hesitated for a moment, and still mustered up the courage to say:

"Sister Wu, although it does have the effect of restoring energy, the recovery effect is too low. It only restores one percent, which is only a little better than natural recovery. It does not meet the standard of high-quality Qi-gathering pills!"

Her voice trembled a little, and it was obvious that she mustered up the courage to say this.

Hearing this, everyone's smiles froze on their faces instantly.

They looked at the testing equipment one after another, and their expressions gradually became solemn.

The originally excited atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone looked at each other, with worries in their eyes.

After all, the goal they set before was to achieve at least 10% energy recovery effect.

Wu Dan's face turned extremely ugly. She turned her head suddenly, stared at the assistant with her eyes, and said angrily:

"It's already very good now. Do you think it's easy to make pills? We have gone through so many attempts and overcome so many difficulties to make this pill! This is a small step for our laboratory, but it is a big step for the world's alchemy industry! What do you interns know! You are so shameless! You shouldn't be involved!"

Her voice trembled slightly because of anger, and her fingers clenched into fists unconsciously, and veins even appeared on her forehead.

The assistant was frightened pale by Wu Dan's sudden anger. She lowered her head, her lips trembling slightly, and whispered:

"Wu... Sister Wu, I just..."

But before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Wu Dan.

"Enough, stop talking!"

Wu Dan waved her hand impatiently and turned away from her.

The assistant bit her lips in grievance, tears welled up in her eyes, and she didn't dare to reply in the end.

She knew that at this time, saying more would be useless and would only make Wu Dan more angry.

The whole room fell into an awkward silence. The joy just now had disappeared without a trace, replaced by heavy pressure and worry.

…

Just as everyone was immersed in this sudden awkward and tense atmosphere.

A young researcher asked cautiously:

"Do we still need to ask Mr. Liu? With the current recovery effect, it will definitely not meet the acceptance standards. Who knows how angry Mr. Liu will be when he comes!"

His eyes were full of worry. As he spoke, he looked at Wu Dan with a look of help.

Wu Dan frowned, a hint of displeasure flashed across her face, but she quickly regained her confident look and said in a strong tone:

"Come again! Increase the amount of super-energy fruit used and raise the extraction temperature! Just try a few more times! What's so difficult about refining Qi-gathering pills? It's just some parameter adjustments. As long as we work hard, we will definitely succeed!"

As she spoke, she waved her arms in the air, as if she was painting a beautiful blueprint of success to everyone.

At this time!

An old Chinese doctor with gray hair slowly stood up.

His name is Hou Ming. He has profound attainments in the field of traditional Chinese medicine and has always been respected in the alchemy department.

Hou Ming cleared his throat and said calmly:

"Since we have to try a few more times, why not add Mr. Lin's method to the plan! I heard some of the key points he said that day, and it seems to make sense. Maybe it can provide us with new ideas."

The assistant standing next to him lit up his eyes instantly when he heard this-

This is actually what she has always thought, but she didn't dare to say it out loud because she was afraid of Wu Dan's anger.

She opened her mouth slightly and was about to agree, but was interrupted rudely by Wu Dan.

"No! You must not use his method!"

Wu Dan's voice suddenly rose, and his eyes were full of anger and determination.

"I want to use my own method to refine the Qi Gathering Pill, and I must not bow to him! He is just a person of unknown origin. Why should he point fingers at our research? We are a professional scientific research team with our own research system and methods. We don't need outsiders to interfere!"

Her face flushed with excitement, and her chest rose and fell violently, as if she was trying her best to suppress her anger.

U Thant's anger made the rest of the people dare not speak anymore. Everyone lowered their heads and stood silently. No one dared to express their opinions easily.

There was a depressing atmosphere in the entire laboratory, like the calm before the storm.

After a while!

Wu Than took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then said loudly:

"Okay, don't waste time, let's start a new round of alchemy! Follow the method I told you, increase the amount of super fruit, and increase the extraction temperature by five degrees!"

Everyone nodded. Although they still had doubts in their hearts, under Wu Thant's strong leadership, they could only do what she asked.

Looking at everyone's busy figures, Hou Ming sighed helplessly.

He knew in his heart that U Thant's stubbornness might cause them to miss some important opportunities.

But he also knew that Wu Thant could not listen to any opinions at this moment.

When the assistant saw Hou Ming sighing, her heart moved. She walked over quietly and said softly to Hou Ming:

"Teacher Hou, why don't we secretly try Mr. Lin's method? I always feel that some of what he said makes sense. Maybe it can really succeed."

Her eyes were full of expectation, hoping that Hou Ming would support her idea.

Hou Ming pondered for a moment, with a troubled look on his face.

He looked at Wu Dan who was directing everyone to make alchemy, then at the assistant who looked expectant, and said slowly:

"You can give it a try, but you must seek U Thant's consent. We are a department and we must make progress together and cannot have differences. If we try it privately without her consent, it will only intensify the contradiction."

The assistant nodded slightly after hearing this. Although she was a little disappointed, she also understood that what Hou Ming said made sense.

…

The little assistant clenched the corners of his clothes so tightly that his knuckles turned white from the exertion. He felt as if he was carrying a rambling deer in his heart. He was extremely nervous, but he still gritted his teeth and walked toward Wu Dan again.

At this moment, Wu Dan was staring at the experimental data with all his concentration. When he noticed that the assistant was approaching, he just raised his eyelids slightly.

The assistant took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calmer:

"Teacher Wu, I still think we should try Mr. Lin's method. After all, practice can only bring true knowledge. We have been following our own ideas, but the effect is not ideal. Maybe we can succeed by using another method."

As soon as Wu Dan heard this, his serious face instantly darkened, his eyes were like a sharp knife, and he shot the assistant coldly:

"Were you also deceived by him? Or, in your mind, my professional knowledge is not as good as this person who came out of nowhere?"

The assistant's heart was tense by this sudden question, and her throat seemed to be choked by something, and she was speechless for a moment.

She bit her lower lip tightly, digging her nails into her palms, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst into her eyes.

Wu Dan was not going to let her go, and continued to say harshly:

"You are just an intern. If the apocalypse hadn't come, you wouldn't even be qualified to see me based on your level. Here, you should just listen to me and stop thinking about unrealistic things all day long. Wrong idea."

These words were like sharp daggers, piercing straight into the little assistant's heart.

She always knew that her university was not as good as U Thant's. Ever since she came here to become U Thant's assistant, she had always had an open mind to learn and had great respect for U Thant.

But during this period, she was always suppressed by Wu Than for no reason, and the grievances and unwillingness in her heart surged like a flood that burst a dam.

Finally, the assistant couldn't bear it any longer. She raised her head, looked directly into Wu Thant's eyes, mustered up all her courage and said:

"Teacher Wu, you are my teacher, and I have always respected you! But refining the Qi Gathering Pill is the task of our entire team, not your business alone. You cannot delay the entire team's work just because of your personal preferences. Progress. I suggest that we vote by show of hands to see if we should try Mr. Lin’s method.”

The words just fell!

The little assistant raised her hand high without hesitation. Her hand was trembling slightly in the air, but it was as firm as a flag that would never fall.

At this moment, she was no longer the submissive intern who allowed others to bully her, but a warrior who bravely fought for opportunities for the team's goals!

The laboratory fell silent for an instant, and everyone was shocked by the assistant's sudden behavior.

They all stopped what they were doing and turned their attention here.

…

Wu Dan's face instantly turned livid, like the gloomy sky before a storm. Her eyes were fixed on the assistant, as if she wanted to see through her.

The coldness in his eyes made the surrounding air seem to freeze a bit.

At this tense moment, the old Chinese medicine doctor named Hou slowly raised his hand, and his voice was calm and peaceful:

"It doesn't hurt to give it a try! If you try one more way, you might be able to find a successful direction. Aren't we doing research to constantly explore new possibilities?"

Mr. Hou's words were like dropping a stone on a calm lake, causing ripples.

Wu Dan looked at Mr. Hou in disbelief, then looked around suddenly, his voice becoming sharp with anger:

"Is there anyone else? Have you all thought about it?"

There was a hint of menace in her eyes, as if she was warning others not to make decisions lightly.

However, her intimidation did not work.

A young researcher hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised his hand and whispered:

"That's not to say that Lin Lang's method will definitely work, but it doesn't matter if you give it a try. Anyway, we are now encountering bottlenecks with our own method. One more try may lead to a change."

With the first person taking the lead, more and more people raised their hands.

Some of their actions were firm and some were hesitant, but they all expressed a common intention——

Try Lin Lang's method.

Wu Dan looked at the raised hands, the anger burning in his heart.

She originally thought that everyone would be on her side, but she didn't expect that she would become a minority!

But!

When more than half of the people raise their hands!

Her heart suddenly tightened!

Because she realized that these people might have opinions about her!

She is not stupid. She knows that if she is isolated in a team, it will be difficult to carry out future work.

then!

The expression on Wu Dan's face suddenly turned 180 degrees. She suddenly put on a smiling face and said in a relaxed tone:

"Oh, just give it a try. It's not a big deal. Assistant, why do you have to make the scene so ugly?"

"Actually, I'm also thinking about the progress of the mission and don't want everyone to waste time! But since everyone wants to try it, let's give it a try!"

As she spoke, she changed the subject, with a hint of sarcasm in the smile on her face.

"But I advise everyone not to have too much hope. After all, what Lin Lang said has no scientific basis at all, and the possibility of success is extremely slim!"

"If time, energy, money and medicinal materials are wasted because of this, I hope the assistant will be responsible!"

With these few words, she cleverly placed all the responsibilities on the little assistant.

When the assistant heard this, she felt aggrieved. She bit her lip tightly, her eyes were slightly red, and she almost couldn't help but refute.

But she still held back tears and swallowed her words. She knew that retorting at this point would only make things worse.

At this moment, the old Chinese medicine doctor Hou stood up. He looked at Wu Dan and said firmly:

"It is inevitable to fail when doing experiments. If it doesn't work, I am also responsible! We are all working towards the team's goal, and we cannot hold back because of fear of failure."

Mr. Hou's words were like a warm current flowing in the little assistant's heart.

She raised her head, her eyes filled with emotion, and her eyes looking at Mr. Hou were filled with gratitude.

Under Mr. Hou's mediation, the originally tense and depressing atmosphere in the laboratory relaxed a lot.

Everyone looked away from Wu Dan and the assistant and began to prepare for the new experiment.

Wu Dan snorted coldly. Although his heart was still full of dissatisfaction, he could only accept the result helplessly.

She turned around and walked towards the experimental table, muttering in a low voice:

"Then let's start! See if we can succeed."

"After failure, let me see what else you can say!" (End of Chapter)
