317: Chapter 317 Only Ex-Wife and Ex-Father-in-Law Are Difficult to Raise

Over half an hour later, inside a secret laboratory.

Jiang Hanwen looked at the rapidly changing indicators on the screen, then looked toward Tang Long behind the one-meter-thick glass wall.

"Your heart rate is already four times your resting rate. Are you sure you want to increase the dosage?"

Tang Long's body was currently flashing with chaotic lights, but he gritted his teeth.

"Add another dose!"

Jiang Hanwen glanced at Governor Jiang Shiqi, who nodded silently.

Another black potion was pushed from the instrument beside Tang Long into the input device and then injected into his veins.

Only seconds after the injection, Tang Long's vision blurred inexplicably. He seemed to sense something and immediately returned his gaze to the timer beside him.

"Five doses, 4 minutes and 51 seconds..."

"No matter what happens later, absolutely do not interfere!"

"Record all time nodes!"

As soon as his words fell, the world suddenly spun before his eyes.

It was as if the entire room, the entire city, and even the entire Blue Planet had shrunk into his eyes in an instant.

Then, there was darkness and deathly silence.

There was no sound, no vibration, only the immense pressure from the darkness, just like being buried deep in the soil.

He did not know how much time had passed, but then a glimmer of light appeared. His senses slowly awakened as if thawing, and his vision gradually brightened.

Tang Long saw the light, and then by the firelight, he saw the surrounding environment clearly.

The surroundings were a spherical space, and his limbs were bound to metal chains, suspended in the center of this spherical space.

The area around this sphere was matte black. He did not know what Materials it was made of, but it was clearly deformed and scorched in many places.

Heat transferred from the fixed end of the sphere wall through the metal chains to his wrists, making Tang Long feel a searing, even burning sensation.

However...

What concerned him more was the shape of those flames.

The flames looked like small blue mushrooms.

Coupled with the feeling of weightlessness, a chill could not help but rise up Tang Long's spine.

His body still could not move.

But he keenly discovered that several skills in his skill bar were actually lit up, and among them was surprisingly Fire Eye!

He immediately activated it, and then he let out a long sigh.

Outside the circular cabin wall, he could see a celestial body pitted with craters.

And on the other side, there was something glowing blue.

After watching for a long while, Tang Long let out a wry laugh.

"Old Mai, oh Old Mai, you really are something!"

With a crack, a wall panel on the spherical cabin, which was spinning and tumbling in space, was suddenly flung off, revealing a long curved inner window.

This tear caused the spherical cabin to develop a small crack, and gas began to leak.

The life support facilities inside the cabin immediately released a large amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide, causing the fire to burn even more intensely.

Tang Long immediately braced himself with Spirit Astral, then found the right angle and suddenly released Spirit Blade, cutting the metal chains binding his hands directly.

And then... he regretted it.

The four metal chains had originally been able to fix his body well, but after cutting two, this stability was immediately destroyed. As the circular cabin spun and traveled at high speed, he was thrown around.

Although this impact was nothing, he was now like a hammer, continuously striking the already damaged circular cabin from the inside.

Moreover, after releasing it twice, Spirit Blade could no longer be used.

Tang Long could only stare, helpless.

After being thrown around for a while longer, Fire Eye and Spirit Astral both shut down on their own.

A few seconds later, the sensation of the world spinning hit him again.

As if in a trance, he found himself sitting back in the laboratory.

He looked at his watch; the time was around 7 minutes and 30 seconds.

He immediately asked the person opposite him, "How was my condition just now?"

Jiang Hanwen leaned close to the intercom and replied, "For about two and a half minutes just now, all your indicators dropped rapidly, and even the effects of the serum rapidly approached zero."

"To put it bluntly, for about ten seconds, you were no different from a dying man."

"If you hadn't said before that I shouldn't interfere under any circumstances, I would have taken emergency rescue measures."

"What on earth are you doing?"

Tang Long shook his head repeatedly, "There's no time to explain now. Switch to the Type II serum, five doses again! Hurry!"

Jiang Hanwen was helpless and could only comply.

The Type II serum took effect even faster. Within about a minute, Tang Long's consciousness returned to the circular cabin again.

And to his surprise, although none of his skills could be used, this time his body could miraculously move!

Even without using skills, his abilities as a Martial Artist were unaffected.

He immediately tore off the metal chains on his feet, then quickly extinguished the fire points in the cabin, and tried his best to seal the damaged parts of the cabin wall to slow down the gas leakage.

Finally, he used the metal chains to fix his body to the cabin wall.

However, what now?

This circular cabin was already damaged, and disintegration was likely a matter of time.

By then, he would be exposed to space!

Although his strength and endurance were now several or even ten times that of an ordinary person, and his spiritual energy was quite abundant, could he survive in this environment?

Even if he could survive temporarily, he would just be spinning around in lunar orbit.

Damn it!

He had overcome so many difficulties and dangers during his Transmigration, and after finally coming back, he actually encountered this situation.

Amidst the lament that 'only former wives and former fathers-in-law are hard to deal with,' Tang Long waited until his consciousness returned to the Blue Planet again.

He opened his eyes.

28 minutes and 18 seconds!

In other words, his consciousness had stayed on Earth for a full 20 minutes this time!

Although his body on Earth was still in a major crisis, the two experiments had led him to a major discovery.

Both types of serum could allow his consciousness to return.

The Type I serum's effect leaned toward game abilities, capable of activating skills, but the stay time was short and movement was restricted.

The Type II serum leaned toward his own strength, allowing his body to move freely, with a longer stay time, but skills could not be activated.

Perhaps it was still a matter of dosage.

"Uncle Jiang, adjust the dosage immediately! Prepare a mixed serum according to the standard of ten doses of each type!"

As Tang Long spoke, he pulled off the tubes and needles from his body, put on his clothes, and walked out.

But when he reached the outer room, he was stopped by Governor Jiang Shiqi.

"Tang Long, what exactly are you experimenting with? Can you tell me now?"

Of course, Tang Long could not tell him his true purpose.

He could only wave his hand, "It's still unclear. We can only have a conclusion after all the experiments are finished."

Elder Jiang chuckled, "You don't have to say it if you don't want to."

"But I must remind you that the risk of using the two types of serum mixed together is far beyond our imagination."

"Let's put it this way, the vast majority of those in the Open Origin Realm would explode instantly."

Tang Long was slightly taken aback, "You have already conducted human experiments?"

"Of course."

Elder Jiang said, waving his hand and casting a green light.

Tang Long's pupils constricted sharply because a Healing Spell had appeared in his status!

"Elder, is this... a temporary ability, or a permanent change?"

Elder Jiang smiled and shook his head slightly, "I've only mastered it for less than three days; it's too early to talk about it being permanent. But it is currently quite stable."

"I know that you have gone much further on this path than the Jiang Family."

"Some things are talent, and we cannot force them."

"But since we are partners, you can't keep everything hidden."

"Also, we don't have that much of the serum you need on hand. Especially Type I; we can't even scrape together ten doses now."

"You previously promised me that there were experimental subjects, even living ones, in the Divine Ruins, but I haven't seen them yet. What do you say to that?"

Tang Long wore a fake smile, thinking to himself that the old guy was starting to settle accounts with him.

The Blue Planet people's research on players would continue until the Doomsday Era.

Although facts proved that this was a dead end, and what they could eventually master was only superficial.

However, it was truly unexpected that the Jiang Family had already touched the threshold of mastering skills at this time.

The issue of stance could not be ambiguous.

He believed that even if Ye Baiqiao lived until the invasion occurred, he could only lead the Blue Planet people to attack Earth.

Therefore, Tang Long could not provide substantive help to the Jiang Family in this type of research.

However, for a period of time, he still needed to borrow the power of the Jiang Family; he couldn't let them see no benefits at all.

Therefore, he directly took out the crystal void cube and pointed toward the ceiling.

A vortex of light instantly appeared, and a large pile of pitch-black things fell out of it.

The broken corpses of black game entities, this pile of about several hundred, appeared before the eyes of the Jiang father and son, leaving the two dumbfounded.

"I keep my word. You can inspect them."

"Uncle Jiang, hurry up and prepare the serum. I'll be back in about an hour or two."

"Oh, right, Governor Jiang, prepare to go out of the city tomorrow to collect blood."

Tang Long walked out of the laboratory, took off into the air without hesitation, and flew rapidly toward the deep sky.
