98: Chapter 98 Going to work, working, and making extra money

"Good morning, Manager Qin."

"Morning, Manager Qin."

"Manager Qin."

Rising Sun Behemoth Factory.

Dissection Workshop.

Qin Feng greeted the dissection workers while changing into his bio-hazard suit and donning thick leather gloves.

Having chatted with Hong Lian for a while, Qin Feng wasn't the first to arrive at the Dissection Workshop today; he was even a bit late.

But as Manager Qin, the factory's quality director, and the big shot favored by Upper City's Manager Lu, no one dared to say a word about it.

Otherwise,

according to factory regulations,

working overtime is fine.

But if you're late?

Sorry.

Even one second means a deduction, and it's deducted at triple the rate.

"Manager Qin, look! I hit the jackpot right this morning, dissected out that blood-red gem!"

Liu Shuaijie waved to Qin Feng.

His face beamed with joy.

He scurried over eagerly.

"Hmm, not bad."

Qin Feng nodded.

He took the titan blood crystal that Liu Shuaijie carefully handed over.

This was a 'plate crystal'.

Although only of Medium Grade quality,

compared to the 'Fragment Crystals' most dissection workers extracted, it could already be considered of very high quality.

"Xiao Liu, your dissection skills are getting better and better. You're the most talented and fastest-improving young man I've seen. Keep up the good work."

"Hmm, your bonus will be transferred in a moment. Return to your workstation first."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Manager Qin."

Qin Feng offered some encouragement.

Then he headed towards his own dissection workstation.

Before he even picked up the dissection chainsaw,

he saw Old Zhang, Zhang Hengming, the worker with the longest tenure in the entire Rising Sun Behemoth Factory, also approaching.

A smile spread across his face.

His wrinkles smoothed out like a blooming flower, clearly in a very good mood:

"Manager Qin, this is my harvest from just now. Please take a look."

"Hmm."

Qin Feng took it.

Looking at the smile on Old Zhang's face,

he felt a complex mix of emotions inside.

Special medicine.

For Lower City people, it was life-saving medicine to cure the ghostly disease.

But...

Lower City people would never dream,

that the so-called special medicine, whether genuine or knock-off, was all fake!

If they knew...

what kind of despair would that be?

"Old Zhang, your daughter's illness... how has it been lately?"

Qin Feng asked.

"Thanks to your blessings, Manager Qin, my daughter's condition has improved recently. She can continue her studies now and prepare for the college entrance exams."

Old Zhang said with a hearty laugh.

Then, before Qin Feng could say more,

Old Zhang waved his hand:

"Manager Qin, I'll head back to my workstation now."

"I don't know why, but I feel particularly lucky today. I need to keep up this momentum and work harder! Dissect more of those blood-red gems to bring you honor, Manager Qin!"

With that,

Old Zhang hurriedly returned to his workstation.

And continued to bury himself in his work.

Qin Feng sighed softly in his heart.

It was easy to dissect the dead egg of the demon god from the corpses of the dead or those mutated into monsters, but doing so from a living person... was difficult.

After all, dissection was ultimately different from surgery.

Leaving aside other things,

just trying to locate the dead egg within his own body,

gave Qin Feng a headache.

Others were even less likely to manage.

"If there were some method to see through the human body, to precisely grasp every tiny corner and meridian inside, with my dissection skills, turning it into 'surgery' might be possible."

"But unfortunately, I don't have such means at present."

Qin Feng didn't dwell on it further.

He gathered his thoughts.

Picked up the dissection chainsaw.

Prepared to work.

...

"Clack, clack, clack..."

As the conveyor belt moved, the massive corpse of a Six-Winged Weird Python Tiger appeared before Qin Feng.

Qin Feng didn't start immediately.

Instead, his eyes flickered.

A faint trace of "Qi" appeared in his pupils.

Instantly, his observational ability was heightened to its peak.

"As expected, what Lu Yunsong values most about me is my ability to dissect 'Medium Grade Block Crystals'. Nearly half of the Floating Spirit Guards in the Dissection Workshop have their surveillance focused on me."

Sensing those monitoring gazes fixed upon him,

Qin Feng sneered inwardly.

Lu Yunsong was paying more and more attention to him.

Especially after the incident at Raccoon Apartments yesterday.

Lu Qingran was missing.

Yet he could return to the factory as if nothing had happened.

Lu Yunsong would inevitably harbor some suspicion, wondering how he survived and whether he was connected to Lu Qingran's disappearance.

Probably,

Lu Yunsong would call soon,

to offer him some "concerned inquiries".

As for that,

Qin Feng had naturally already prepared his responses.

"Hah!"

He took a deep breath.

Qin Feng pulled the chainsaw chain with a "whoosh" and began the dissection, entering his work mode.

For a moment,

flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Not long after, the entire tiger skin of the Six-Winged Weird Python Tiger was completely stripped off without a single blemish. The tiger wings were neatly arranged one by one, and the python-like tail was coiled orderly to the side.

Next,

came opening the belly.

Extracting the internal organs.

And this...

was also the step with the highest yield rate for titan blood crystals!

"Rip!"

The thick belly layer intertwined with muscles was sliced open in a straight line. Qin Feng reached his hand inside.

Suddenly,

his eyes moved.

"Got one."

Although wearing thick anti-contamination leather gloves, Qin Feng, with his rich experience, could quickly discern the unique texture of a titan blood crystal.

"Based on size... it should be a 'Block Crystal'."

If it were before,

Qin Feng would naturally have to honestly take out this "Block Crystal".

Even though the titan blood crystal was currently inside the corpse's belly,

and the Floating Spirit Guards' surveillance couldn't capture it,

but...

it couldn't stay in the belly forever, could it?

According to the standard dissection procedure,

the corpse of this Six-Winged Weird Python Tiger would be completely disassembled into "parts". Hiding something would be very difficult, and once the dissection was complete, it would be directly transported out, with no further chance of contact.

"However..."

"Now I have a way to make this titan blood crystal disappear from the corpse's belly for good."

The corner of Qin Feng's mouth lifted slightly.

He focused his mind.

"Swish!"

The titan blood crystal he held tightly in his hand, inside the belly of the Six-Winged Weird Python Tiger,

suddenly trembled faintly.

The space around the titan blood crystal

warped in an extremely bizarre manner.

The next moment,

the titan blood crystal vanished.

As if it had fallen into some hidden void...

At the same time,

in the Ether Layer Inner World of the Rising Sun Behemoth Factory,

a figure

had a flicker in his eyes.

He looked up at the sky.

There, a flash of crimson light appeared, followed by a blood-stained crystal block falling down.

The figure swiftly reached out and grabbed it.

The crystal was now firmly in his grasp.

"Good, the first gain from skimming the cream."

The titan blood crystal emitted a bloody glow, illuminating the figure's face.

It was Qin Feng.
