Chapter 17 Artificial Gemstones

Abnormal Human Research Center, Training Ground No. [-].

A brief welcome ceremony allowed Ji Tianqi to enjoy the treatment of a returning hero.

This made him less concerned about the research center's "tentative behavior."But he will not forget this matter, nor will he forget the reminder he gave Bai Xiuchu and the research center.

In other words, it is a relatively euphemistic threat!

"Luo Xiancheng's superpowers have begun to recover."

Issues related to the operation were not mentioned immediately. The person in charge told Ji Tianqi the relevant issues about Luo Xiancheng with a serious expression.

"It's normal." Ji Tianqi said without surprise: "Although Beiming Gong can absorb people's internal energy and make people lose all their internal energy, it has a foundation after all, and the recovery speed after practicing it again is much faster than normal practice. "

"???"

"It's like a fat person who successfully loses weight through liposuction, but can easily regain it."

Needless to say, the metaphor is quite vivid.

The person in charge nodded and said: "That's indeed what I mean. However, his recovery speed is very slow at present. If he recovers at the speed of these few days, it will take about seven years for him to return to his previous state. Energy value."

"So?" Ji Tianqi suddenly asked, "By the way, what's your name?"

The person in charge looked down at the nameplate on his left chest. After confirming that his name was written on it, he looked at Ji Tianqi with a smile and replied: "Cong Wen, Cong of grass, Wen of culture."

"Hello Cong Wen, may I ask, so what?"

"So..." Cong Wen hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Luo Xiancheng hopes that you can absorb the energy from his body every once in a while. He said that he does not want super powers."

Ji Tianqi pondered.

This kind of reaction surprised everyone in the research team - don't give up the energy that was given away in vain.

"What else did he say?"

"He said that he wanted to live an ordinary life, get married and have children like ordinary people. Because he felt that this was what his relatives expected."

"Then it's no problem." Ji Tianqi nodded and said, "Until he changes his mind, I have no problem."

"That's great."

Cong Wen expressed his gratitude to Luo Xiancheng, but did not immediately arrange a meeting between the two parties.

On the one hand, this is because Luo Xiancheng needs to undergo very strict ability and psychological evaluation, and on the other hand, it is because the current Luo Xiancheng is indeed too weak and has too little energy in his body.

Judging from the absorption and refining efficiency shown when Ji Tianqi used Beiming Gong before, he converted Luo Xiancheng's energy value of 76 into his own energy value of 20.

Some are a waste of time.

Because, it is not only Luo Xiancheng who needs Ji Tianqi to absorb the energy in his body, but also some people similar to Luo Xiancheng.And people who are completely different from Luo Xiancheng and are real criminals, but it is necessary to make them lose their super powers.

Even a monster!
Of course, these people or monsters have all been captured and brought to justice. It is not a big problem for Ji Tianqi to use Beiming Gong to absorb their energy.

From this point of view, Cong Wen recognized what Bai Xiuchu had mentioned before - Ji Tianqi needed them.
-
"We have arranged very professional instructors for you to provide you with very professional training."

Cong Wen spoke confidently. This was also because Ji Tianqi's sudden strength and unfathomable potential had given the research team he led a qualitative upgrade in terms of authority.

It would have been difficult for them to have such authority before when Ji Tianqi was only practicing Nine Yang Kung and his progress was slow.

"The question now is, do you want to get the adventure of the Orchid Acupuncture Hand?"

"Yes." Ji Tianqi asked impatiently: "10 taels, are you ready?"

"No." Cong Wen quickly explained after denying it: "We believe that compared to silver, we can actually provide you with items of higher value."

"Oh?"

When Ji Tianqi was confused, he saw Xiao Wu walking over with a tray in his hands and an excited expression.

The tray was covered with a layer of red cloth, so the inside couldn't be seen.

After Xiao Wu approached, Cong Wen nodded to Bai Xiuchu, and Bai Xiuchu immediately lifted the red cloth.

The movements are solemn, a bit like lifting a bride's red hijab.

Then Ji Tianqi's eyes brightened up, because of the reflection of the items on the tray, and some items were shining brightly.

"Gem? Luminous Pearl?"

"Yes, artificial gemstones and artificial luminous pearls, as well as artificial jade."

After Cong Wen confirmed this, he explained: "It's not that we are reluctant to lend you 10 taels of silver, but 10 taels of silver are very large and difficult to carry. And these things are much lighter."

"really."

Ji Tianqi nodded with satisfaction. He patted Cong Wen on the shoulder, ignoring Cong Wen's suddenly tense body.

"You researchers are so smart. I, a mentally ill person, didn't even think of this."

"..."

[Actually, you don’t have to emphasize this point all the time. 】

Cong Wen and others also understood that Ji Tianqi was speaking sarcastically.They have worked with Ji Tianqi for the longest time for seven years, so they all know that Ji Tianqi firmly believes that he is not mentally ill, and traveling to another world is not his fantasy.

But they all insisted that Ji Tianqi was mentally ill, which was the main point of conflict between the two parties.

"Then use it on these."

Ji Tianqi took the tray and arranged: "Bring me my ancient clothes and sword, and prepare a bag for me to put these things in. I am going to a different world to find that inn."

"Ah? So fast?"

Cong Wen persuaded: "You just carried out a field operation and captured a real criminal. Why don't we take a break for a while. There are also some rewards for meritorious service that need to be given to you."

To be honest, the research center actually does not want Ji Tianqi to acquire the martial art of 'Orchid Acupuncture Hand'.

Let’s not discuss whether it can be obtained successfully. I will only say that if Ji Tianqi really obtains this martial art, he will be able to master it.

In other words, it was a fantasy.

Then there will be a problem - Ji Tianqi can use acupoints to control others without using internal power.

In other words, the genetic lock's restriction on Ji Tianqi is ineffective to a certain extent.

Of course, there is also a possibility that the acupuncture martial arts imagined by Ji Tianqi is actually a new super power that will not affect the restrictions of the gene lock.

In general, as the old saying goes, risks and benefits coexist.

"No need to rest, let Bai Xiuchu come over with those things. Isn't she my guardian?"

Ji Tianqi was in a hurry.

It's more urgent than the Zhao Shen Kung and other attack martial arts he wants to acquire.

After all, this is a society governed by law, and offensive martial arts can easily harm others. Even criminals have certain human rights before being truly tried.

He can't always use 'I'm mentally ill' as an excuse to avoid the trouble of injuring or killing others, right?
After all, his goal is to be fully discharged from the hospital and prove that he is not mentally ill.

The benefits of being mentally ill are actually dispensable compared to the freedom he longs for.

"Okay, we'll make arrangements immediately."

Cong Wen didn't dare to really stop it. There was only one conflict between the two parties. It seems that he was a little unjust. Fortunately, the result was not bad.

Moreover, based on their previous analysis, if Ji Tianqi really became a psychopath because his super power was too strong.

So, when Ji Tianqi is eager to improve his own strength, it means that Ji Tianqi 'thinks' that he can withstand stronger power.

This may be able to alleviate Ji Tianqi's condition, but if he is forcibly stopped, the results will be difficult to predict.

……

……

The corresponding arrangements were quickly completed, and Ji Tianqi changed into ancient costume again without needing to remove the genetic lock.

Because after returning from this field operation, Bai Xiuchu had not put a gene lock on him.

The reason given by Bai Xiuchu was that Ji Tianqi could have escaped, but he didn't, so he shouldn't force Ji Tianqi too much, otherwise it would easily lead to a rebellious mentality.

Cong Wen believed that this reason had some validity, so after Ji Tianqi returned to the research center, he did not propose to put a genetic lock on Ji Tianqi.

Ji Tianqi himself would certainly not ask to wear it.

He didn't want to become like Runtu.

Sitting cross-legged in the center of the No. [-] training ground, Ji Tianqi closed his eyes and transferred his inner energy to practice, while repeating it in his mind with partial consciousness.

[I want to travel through time, I want to travel through time, I want to travel through time...]

A few days later, he opened his eyes, and his eyes were blank.

"He's sick!"

"Shh!"

Except for Bai Xiuchu and four security personnel, everyone else has entered the safe house.

But the sound they wanted to discuss was interrupted by Cong Wen.

Cong Wen looked at Xiao Wu and said with encouraging eyes: "Explain it."

"what?"

"Think about it, and then explain his perspective."

"Yes."

"Xiao Wang." Cong Wen named him again: "You record it."

Xiao Wang felt a little aggrieved - it used to be my job to explain things in my head.
