209: Prepare to run the old set
"Captain, you haven't called Ling Ling in days. That girl is going to cry if she doesn't see you soon."
"You ask why I came here to find you?"
Hearing Yang Dian's words, Lin Mo's expression changed, and the pale blue liquid spread in the bathtub shook violently a few times:
"You've seen my current state. How can I talk to Ling Ling?"
"If I dissipate into liquid while talking to Ling Ling, won't that just make her worry more?"
"But if you don't call her, she'll worry even more." At this point, Yang Dian looked up at the camera above the passage again:
"If it's really not possible, have the smart AI project your body, and let the projection call Ling Ling."
Lin Mo shook his head:
"It won't work."
"My current state is very strange; sometimes..."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Mo's projected body suddenly dissipated. The metal patches outside the bathtub in the treatment room, which were flashing like a marquee, also sparked and emitted black smoke, clearly short-circuiting.
He Ju, who was beside him, finished Lin Mo's unspoken words:
"Besides Lin Mo's body suddenly dissipating into liquid, a special magnetic field that he can't control has also appeared in his body."
"The special magnetic field in his body occasionally explodes, destroying all electromagnetic equipment within a one-meter radius."
As he spoke, a mechanical arm picked up electromagnetic patches and replaced the broken ones outside the bathtub.
Then Lin Mo's projection reappeared beside Yang Dian:
"You see?"
"If Ling Ling saw this, she would only worry more."
"But since you're here, please help me tell Ling Ling that I'm fine."
At this point, Lin Mo pondered for a moment before continuing:
"In three more days, I should be able to sort out the information I obtained from the ruins and control my newly acquired abilities."
"This time, my gains are immense. Perhaps I can use the information from the ruins to open up a third path of transcendence, besides Martial Arts and Awakening."
Speaking of which, Lin Mo frowned again, saying with some hesitation:
"It's just that some of the information I obtained is a bit..."
He shook his head, still undecided:
"In short, the information I obtained is quite special, and spreading it casually would definitely cause big problems."
"Let's talk in detail after I recover."
Yang Dian nodded:
"Then Captain, I'll come see you again in three days."
As Lin Mo nodded, the patches outside the bathtub again emitted black smoke with crackling sounds.
Then the puddle of liquid solidified back into Lin Mo's form after a tremor.
Lin Mo, lying in the bathtub, opened his eyes, propped up his upper body, nodded at Yang Dian, then frowned slightly in pain, closed his eyes, and lay back down in the bathtub.
At the same time, He Ju, seeing that the two had finished talking, also spoke up:
"Director Yang, you are now one of the only five Martial Arts Grandmasters in the country, and your individual strength is among the top tier globally."
"I wonder if you have any thoughts about exploring unknown ruins?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Dian lowered his head and looked at the deck floor.
His gaze seemed to penetrate the steel destroyer, deep into the seabed hundreds of meters below, seeing the place of Opportunity guided by the Earth's Will.
With thoughts swirling in his mind, Yang Dian took a deep breath, and finally shook his head:
"Forget it, I have other things to do, so I won't go down for now."
"If the ruins haven't been fully explored after I finish my matters, then going down for a trip wouldn't hurt."
Saying this, he turned to He Ju again:
"Principal He, until Lin Mo has fully recovered, I suggest you don't send anyone else into the ruins, to avoid unnecessary losses."
He Ju nodded seriously:
"I know that."
"After Lin Mo's accident, I already recalled all personnel and suspended the exploration of the ruins."
"Now I'm only letting those sand dredgers and mud dredgers work day and night, hoping to quickly enclose this sea area into an island..."
On the way back to the deck, he also inquired about the progress of the ruin exploration with He Ju.
After reaching the deck, Yang Dian, having obtained all the information he wanted, no longer had any desire to stay in this place.
So he bid farewell to He Ju and immediately surged with Qi and Blood, transforming into a streak of light that shot into the sky, disappearing into the night.
Seeing Yang Dian fly away without a word, He Ju couldn't help but show envy in his eyes:
"When will our navy have its own City-Level powerhouse..."
Hearing He Ju's lament, Wang Quan, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but shake his head:
"Principal He, you should stop dreaming."
"Even if someone in our navy is lucky enough to practice martial arts and Breakthrough to the Qi Blood Dragon Transformation Realm, becoming a Martial Arts Grandmaster."
"Or Awaken an extraordinary talent, becoming a City-Level Awakened."
"Can we keep him?"
"Once such a talent appears, I'm afraid he'll be directly transferred away; there'll be no share for us..."
"Alas..."
...Amidst the simultaneous sighs of He Ju and Wang Quan, Yang Dian, who had already flown ten miles, stopped in mid-air and unhesitatingly entered the Unity of Man and Nature state.
'mother earth, guide me...'
'Find the Fire Flame Turtle...'
As the thought fell, the favor of the Earth's Will instantly diminished by a minuscule amount.
The previously chaotic and random guidance, which had been directing Yang Dian in all directions to find resources, instantly vanished, leaving only a newly appeared, exceptionally clear guidance pointing far into the distance.
"That direction?"
Frowning, Yang Dian flew high into the sky and gazed in the direction indicated by the guidance. His brows instantly furrowed.
"There?"
With a thought, Yang Dian had already transformed into a streak of light, rapidly soaring in the direction of the guidance.
The journey was uneventful.
As Yang Dian approached a city without any concealment, a loud alarm suddenly blared from above the city.
"Heh, as expected of Old Lai, who audits security every six months. I just flew past the northern side of Taipei, and he's already reacting?"
Looking down at the brightly lit but somewhat old city below, Yang Dian's lips curved into a smile before he shook his head.
"If I don't hurry back, there might be no way back when I want to~"
With a sigh, Yang Dian had already flown across the northern side of Taipei.
At the same time, in an underground air defense base in Taipei.
Lai Deqing, who had rushed to the underground air defense base in a panic as soon as the radar detected Yang Dian flying straight towards Taipei, also received news that Yang Dian had already left the airspace above Taipei and continued flying southwest.
"Have you confirmed what that thing flying in the sky is?"
Lai Deqing's secretary nodded:
"According to satellite images from America, it can be confirmed that he is Yang Dian, the newly promoted Martial Arts Grandmaster from Fuzhou on the mainland."
Lai Deqing paced in circles:
"There are more and more Grandmasters on the mainland."
"Do you think if they get a few more Grandmasters, they'll attack?"
The secretary nodded:
"It's possible."
"Tomorrow, we'll condemn them. We can't let them keep flying over our heads!"
"Then prepare, we're going to Lithuania."
The secretary was stunned, "Ah? Even if we're scared, why Lithuania?"
Lai Deqing rolled his eyes at him:
"Are you stupid? Besides those crazy people in Lithuania, who else would dare to see us at this time..."
