Beast Tamer: After My Pet Space Mutated, I Became OP
Chapter 1495: Deep into enemy territory
Lin Qianshang stared at the data.
The researcher exclaimed in delight, "The pressure has reached the limit that a standard royal-level person can withstand, but he hasn't collapsed yet."
"Continue to improve."
"The pressure has reached the quasi-saint level, and vital signs have begun to fluctuate, but bloodline activity has increased by 37%!"
"Very good... Continue!"
"The pressure has reached the Saint level! Oh no, he's starting to bleed!"
On the screen, dark red blood seeped from Mingxi's mouth and nostrils.
But she persisted.
A fanatical glint flashed in Lin Qianshang's eyes: "Incredible... to withstand the pressure of a Saint-level transcendent being with a human body! The potential of this bloodline has far exceeded our expectations!"
Keep going! I want to see her reach her limit!
The pressure continues to rise.
Peak Saint Rank... Early Venerable Rank...
Mingxi's 'painful manifestations' became more and more intense. Her body began to convulse, like an epileptic seizure, and the probes on her body also fell off due to her violent movements.
Lin Qianshang's hands were also trembling with excitement.
"That's fine."
Lin Qianshang finally announced the suspension of the test. He was not feeling sorry for Mingxi, but worried that such an important experimental subject might be compromised because of this.
This Ke Yi Turan must be treated with even greater care.
We have enough data for now.
We need to consult with others before conducting a formal study and come up with the most suitable plan.
And we need to give this person the cold shoulder for a while, so she doesn't take herself too seriously.
Mingxi had no idea what Lin Qianshang was thinking, and even if she did, she wouldn't have any thoughts about it.
Whether it's cold or not doesn't matter.
Now that she is in this so-called 'cradle', and her goal has been achieved, Lin Qianshang can throw it all away.
The hatch opened.
Mingxi crawled ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) out weakly, covered in blood and pale as paper.
Lin Qianshang walked up to her, squatted down, and looked at her carefully.
"Ke Yi," he said coldly, "You'll stay here for the next few days. I'll have someone arrange your accommodation. We'll talk about other things after the preliminary medical report comes out."
Good heavens!
You'd think this person was a chameleon. When she needed her, she was Lady Yulanka; when she didn't, she was Ke Yi. This fickle attitude was even more shameless than a heartless and unfaithful man.
Mingxi couldn't help but sneer, "Fine."
Mingxi was placed in an apartment of about 200 square meters. The neighborhood was full of the families of senior researchers. If it weren't for the omnipresent surveillance, it would have been a good place to stay.
But Verina was not assigned here.
Clearly, Lin Qianshang had separated them.
Tsk.
You're so cunning!
Four days later.
Outside the lounge area, the smooth, mirror-like ground reflected the hurried figures of people in white coats.
Mingxi, wrapped in a thin blanket used for examination, sat on a rest chair, her head drooping weakly, but her star-blue pupils calmly scanned her surroundings through the gaps in her silvery-white hair.
She was naturally busy for the next four days, trying various methods to find clues about where Mo Fengyi was being held.
Although it was difficult, we had penetrated deep into enemy territory, and there are always more solutions than problems.
Moreover, after her mental energy materialized, her abilities in areas such as detection improved by leaps and bounds. As long as she remained discreet and avoided triggering any special restrictions, there shouldn't be any major problems.
Therefore, although Mo Fengyi's information was kept very well hidden, Mingxi had already grasped some clues.
However, this still needs to be confirmed.
Her spiritual power spread out like an invisible net, centered on the rest area.
Her spiritual power, which can materialize into any substance, allows her to detect extremely subtle energy fluctuations and fragments of information.
At the end of the corridor, two researchers walked quickly while talking in hushed tones:
"...The 'samples' in area A-3 have shown signs of rejection again..."
"Tsk, those were the last batch of test subjects recovered from the Crimson Corridor, weren't they?"
"It's that batch."
"...There are not many original aliens and alien beasts left in the experimental library. If any of these experimental subjects suffer an accident, then the related research will probably come to a standstill."
"..."
"...Have you heard? There's been quite a stir in E2 lately. That person has been holding back for so long, why did they suddenly lose patience?"
"Shh! Keep your voice down! Lord Xiuyu's affairs are not something you can discuss... But I do know the reason. It's because that person is causing too much trouble up there. The Silver Raven family, the Margaret family, and various other forces have been almost completely destroyed by them. But the people we sent there couldn't do anything about it. The lords are extremely frustrated. It is said that headquarters has already sent people over."
"Really? Headquarters sent someone directly? This guy surnamed Ming is that powerful?!"
"It's more than just amazing; I feel like that day was truly heavenly!"
"Wouldn't that mean... the adults tried to trap the other party, but ended up losing both their wife and their army?"
Shh! Do you want to die?!
"..."
The sound faded into the distance.
Mingxi's fingertips twitched slightly under the blanket.
E2 area.
Lord Xiuyu.
The commotion was quite loud.
These keywords are linked together.
If Mo Fengyi is truly trapped in this 'cradle,' the most likely scenario is that he is in Zone E2.
However, Zone E is the core of the 'Cradle', and only core members of the Advent can enter it.
Security was extremely tight. As a high-level experimental subject of "Ke Yi Turan", one could not even enter the area, let alone pass by and be arrested.
Therefore, we need to find another solution.
She closed her eyes, and her spiritual energy spread out once more.
In her mental vision, the structure of the "Cradle" presented a different picture—countless energy pipelines crisscrossed underground like blood vessels, with several particularly thick dark purple energy streams converging from various areas into the depths of Zone E.
Energy flow?
Mingxi frowned. The gathering of such a massive energy flow indicated that the interior of Zone E was not as simple as daily life.
It must be used to maintain a certain prop or a carrier that consumes a lot of resources.
It may even be the core that keeps the entire cradle running.
Anything is possible.
Mingxi transformed her spiritual power into a stream of energy, tracing it back along one of the channels, like searching for a spider by following its web.
The pipeline passes through Zone B, Zone C...
Ultimately, the location was narrowed down to a room marked "Equipment Maintenance Room" on the second basement floor of Area A.
"Huh?"
Mingxi's brow twitched violently. Was the thing in this maintenance room... the one she was thinking of?
If so, then all I can say is that this Advent Organization is really something else!
"Ke Yi." A gentle voice sounded beside her.
Mingxi 'awoke' with a start and looked up.
Lin Qianshang was standing in front of her at some point, holding a report in his hand.
"Your preliminary medical examination report is in."
He smiled and said, "The result is quite amazing."
Your bloodline exhibited characteristics of 'adaptive evolution' during stress testing, which is extremely rare in humans.
Therefore, we have decided to make you a key experimental subject for the 'Divine Revelation Project'.
Project Revelation?
This wasn't the first time Mingxi had heard this term; it must be "Cradle," or "Important Project" of the Descent Organization, because everyone who mentioned this plan spoke with great seriousness.
Participating in this program means greater authority, but it also means more stringent monitoring.
"This afternoon you will need to take a practical test, similar to the battle with my pet beast at the Shadow Raven family that day. After the practical test, you will be transferred to the special observation room in Zone E."
Lin Qianshang adjusted his glasses. "There's the best environment and equipment there, which can maximize your potential."
Area E?
This was exactly what she wanted, as she didn't need to find another way to enter Zone E.
Mingxi's face showed just the right amount of annoyance.
"Sector E... What about Verina? I haven't seen Verina for several days, and I haven't been able to contact her at all. Have you blocked our terminals?"
Lin Qianshang smiled and said, "Keyi, there's no need to panic. Miss Verina has been doing very well these days. Her abilities can be better utilized here, which is also very beneficial to her growth."
Regarding the issue of the terminal signal being blocked, it wasn't that we were intentionally targeting you, but rather to prevent the exposure of Cradle's address.
Mingxi was very dissatisfied with his evasiveness, and frowned with her handsome, sword-like eyebrows: "Then when can I see her?"
“Ms. Verina has her own lounge and workspace in Zone D. I will arrange for you to meet regularly.” Lin Qianshang’s tone was gentle but left no room for argument. “This is for your development. Please understand.”
He turned and left.
Mingxi lowered her head again, her fingers gently stroking the soft fleece under the blanket, her eyes filled with countless thoughts.
In the afternoon, at the practical testing ground.
It's less of a testing ground and more of a small-scale ancient ruins restoration area.
The rough stone floor, the broken stone pillars, and the ancient inscriptions on the walls are difficult to decipher.
In the center of the venue, there was even a dried-up stone chessboard.
Mingxi stood on the sidelines, looking at the "Guardian" opposite her, who was dressed in a black robe and wore a bird-beak mask, and the ominous-looking pet beast beside him.
This is a cursed soul coffin, a holy-level extraordinary creature with both ghost and demon attributes. It resembles a black stone coffin carved with a painful face, and purplish-black mist seeps from the cracks in the coffin lid.
"Test requirements: Survive the Soul Coffin's attacks for five minutes, or defeat it."
Lin Qianshang announced from the off-site observation platform, "Let's begin."
It seemed that there was no beast tamer in the Cursed Soul Coffin, so there was no one on the command platform. After Lin Qianshang gave the order, its coffin lid slowly slid open a crack. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
Countless black ghostly hands surged out of the coffin, rushing towards Mingxi like a tidal wave!
Mingxi drew her bow and fired a barrage of spiritual arrows, each one striking precisely the core of a ghost hand and shattering it.
But the devil's hand is endless.
As she moved and fired, her gaze involuntarily drifted toward the stone chessboard in the center of the field.
Several chess pieces are scattered on the chessboard.
One of the chess pieces... looks very familiar.
"Guangguang, look, isn't that a Wuxiang piece?"
The information Rosalina gave her indicated that the White Pawn was on Zetalem, but she was only taking it if she found it, and not caring if she didn't.
I never expected to see Wuxiangqi here.
"Indeed, Master, you are really lucky. You found the last part of the Wuxiang Chess so easily."
Guangguang's answer was exactly what Mingxi expected.
Mingxi muttered, "Don't you think this is too much of a coincidence?"
"That's true to some extent."
After this period of fermentation, anyone who is interested will surely know that the owner obtained the chessboard and jar of the Wuxiang chess set.
With its outstretched hand and formidable wrist, how could it not know these things?
"Do you think they deliberately placed the chess pieces here to lure you into a trap? Don't they trust the Heavenly Nine-Eyed Python and its kind?"
Mingxi shook her head: "It might just be a test as a precaution. It just shows that they are very cautious. Even though they believe in my identity, they are still not completely at ease."
"Does that mean we can't move the Wuxiang chess piece?"
"It's alright, it's only temporary!"
Mingxi stopped paying attention to the white chess piece and focused all her attention on the cursed coffin on the opposite side.
At that moment, a ghostly hand broke through the net of arrows and grabbed her ankle!
The chilling energy of the curse spread instantly, attempting to erode her soul.
Mingxi's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and she unleashed her spiritual power, shattering the ghost hand. At the same time, she shot an arrow at the main body of the Cursed Soul Coffin!
The coffin lid closed, and the arrow struck the lid, leaving only a white mark.
Combat effectiveness assessment: A+, excellent combat awareness.
However, they have poor mental resilience.
On the observation platform, the researchers around Lin Qianshang were carefully recording his observations.
"It is recommended to increase mental resilience training."
Testing is still ongoing.
Five minutes later, the test ended.
Mingxi barely managed to hold on for five minutes, and ended up with several minor injuries.
Lin Qianshang nodded in satisfaction: "Very good! Being able to withstand the Cursed Soul Coffin for five minutes, your strength is close to the Emperor level."
Next, I'll have someone take you to Area E.
On the way to Area E, Mingxi casually asked the researcher leading the way, "Why is that testing ground set up like an ancient ruin?"
The researcher who led the way was a talkative young man.
"Oh, it's what our Holy Lord likes."
I heard that the Holy Lord is obsessed with ancient artifacts, and the chessboard you saw in the training ground was dug out from the ruins of some ancient site.
Although the Holy Lord will not be here in person, the necessary preparations still need to be made.
He lowered his voice as he spoke:
"Since you've entered Zone E, you're practically one of us now. Let me tell you something else secretly: there's supposedly a divine artifact inside."
Mingxi looked astonished. "A divine artifact? To just leave a divine artifact out like this? That's incredibly extravagant!"
"Sigh, you don't understand. No one can use that artifact. It doesn't matter where you put it."
"What kind of magical artifact? How come no one can use it?"
"I don't know about that."
Mingxi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
In Zone E, Mingxi was placed in a special observation room.
This is a room furnished like a luxury suite, with a bed, a desk, a private bathroom, and even a floor-to-ceiling window with a view of the artificial lake.
Although the windows are made of a special alloy that allows light to pass through in one direction.
But Mingxi could sense that there were at least seventeen different types of surveillance cameras and energy sensors hidden in the room.
She sat on the edge of the bed and closed her eyes.
Deep within my consciousness, eight familiar contractual connections are rapidly approaching.
It's a gold, silver, jade, black, white, and purple jadeite!
They're back!
They have successfully arrived above the 'cradle', near the location of the abandoned amusement park on the ground.
Mingxi quietly set up a mental simulation, then quickly formed hand seals and recalled them into the pet space.
With the gold ingots and the others safely returned, Mingxi felt much more at ease.
So, it's time for this so-called cradle to... vanish into thin air!
