Era of Magic and Martial Arts-Chapter 273 - 257: The Bone Diagrams of Wang Cong and Feng Mu Are...
Qian Huan found Shi Wuming’s words quite sensible.
He didn’t answer Shi Wuming’s question immediately but instead asked, "Li Bashan is fifth-grade, can you handle him?"
Shi Wuming’s expression turned slightly cold. He could allow his employer to question his character, but he absolutely could not tolerate them doubting his strength.
Shi Wuming’s pupils flickered, projecting a rather bizarre humanoid skeleton.
The skeleton completely lacked any human shape, resembling a distorted monster with a snake tail, arms covered with scales, a torso with centipede-like legs on the lower half, and the upper half entwined with twisted steel bars, filled with colorful wires.
This was not merely New Martial or Old Martial Arts but a hybrid of technology and fierce modifications - a blend of New Martial and technology.
Shi Wuming proudly boasted:
"See, my body’s bone structure isn’t that weak human frame; it’s almost detached from flesh and blood, truly an altered alien bone structure. Every part of this body is infused with the essence of Bright."
Shi Wuming didn’t showcase his scores, he confidently claimed:
"You’re comparing me to Li Bashan? That’s an insult to me, an insult to Bright. How can he compare to me?"
Qian Huan was stunned by Shi Wuming’s displayed bone structure and even more by the strong confidence he exuded at that moment.
Shi Wuming retracted the bone structure image and concluded:
"Even if Li Bashan and I are on the same level in Martial Arts, in terms of true combat power, someone like him, a cheap relic discarded by the times, I could crush him with one hand."
With the bone structure image before him, Qian Huan had to admit defeat.
Of course, he still hoped to recruit Li Bashan; however, after witnessing a higher peak, his obsession and fear towards Li Bashan faded somewhat.
"Unfortunately, Shi Wuming is only assigned to protect me, not to kill anyone for me, nor is there absolute loyalty to me."
Qian Huan smiled coldly inside, he even seriously doubted that the report Wang Cong made to him this morning might have already ended up on the desk of some high-ranking member of the Bright Group.
Qian Huan inhaled deeply, temporarily setting aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind, then promptly reported a few names to Shi Wuming. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
These names belonged to various prison chiefs of each district and a few prison guards who left a deep impression on him, including Feng Mu and Wang Cong.
Altogether, there were 12 in total.
Qian Huan said, "Also check these people for me."
As Qian Huan spoke, he operated his mobile banking, transferring the fee to Shi Wuming.
Shi Wuming displayed a slightly troubled look: "My authority is limited; I can only detect five people a day, any more than that requires..."
This time Qian Huan didn’t show too much surprise; he understood and said, "We have to wait in line until tomorrow, right? Then today only check Zhou Hu and Feng Mu..."
Qian Huan was pondering when he was interrupted by Shi Wuming after giving two names.
"That’s not what I meant, what I meant is..." Shi Wuming looked embarrassed, "You have to pay more!!!"
Qian Huan’s expression froze; he looked at Shi Wuming, suddenly having an unprecedented realization, as if at that moment, he discovered the true essence of Bright from Shi Wuming - demanding money!
Furthermore, Qian Huan felt that Shi Wuming’s name was wrong; it would be more reasonable to switch names with him.
In the end, Qian Huan did add money because, despite his name being Qian Huan, compared to money, he valued his life more.
Half an hour later.
Qian Huan received 12 bone structure detection reports, and Shi Wuming had thought it through carefully, not only providing a void projection version but also printing each report for Qian Huan to read and keep.
Qian Huan sat at the desk, carefully reading the reports in his hand.
As he expected, Zhou Hu’s reverse calculation value was the highest at 44 points, belonging to the category of the peak of fourth-grade, with the possibility of breaking through to fifth-grade with more effort.
The bone structure image was a hunchback ape, and the back was covered with hook-shaped barbs.
The reverse calculation values of all the others were not higher than Zhou Hu’s.
Qian Huan’s gaze lingered on the report for a moment before he gently placed Zhou Hu’s bone structure image aside.
He chose two sheets from the stack of reports, bringing them in front of him for close inspection.
These two bone structure images were, at first glance, the most rubbish humanoid bone structure images Shi Wuming had mentioned.
One skeleton appeared exceptionally thin, with very few detectable feature points on the bone structure, indicating this person had almost never practiced much Martial Arts, the only anomaly being the bone structure was a dull grey.
The grey bone structure image was Wang Cong’s, with a reverse calculation score of only 8 points, making him a second-grade Martial Artist.
At the same time, the report concluded:
Bone structure wc remains stable in humanoid form, low probability of mutation, assumed to have practiced 4 Martial Arts, with New Martial accounting for 100%, Martial Arts grade low.
Reverse calculation value score: 7 points
Life hierarchy: inferior.
Martial Arts grade: second grade
Danger level: E level
Note: Life origin is empty, with a risk of sudden death.
Qian Huan looked at the note below, feeling a bit worried inside.
He didn’t understand, so he asked Shi Wuming.
Shi Wuming gave a casual explanation: "Most of the elderly nearing death have grey bone structures. For young people, it’s either due to having had a severe illness, congenital weakness, or excessive fatigue and overwork leading to a depleted origin."
Qian Huan furrowed his brows and asked, "Can it be rescued?"
[Octagonal Cage Beast Fighting Arena] plan has yet to be implemented, Qian Huan couldn’t bear to let Wang Cong pass away, in some sense, he’s now probably the one who wishes for Wang Cong’s health and longevity the most.
Shi Wuming nodded, "Resting for a period to nurture vitality can lead to improvement. Still, if not at ease, you can take some origin-replenishing elixirs like Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill, Chongying Pill, typically a couple of elixirs can replenish most people."
Qian Huan breathed a bit easier, noting down the names of these elixirs. Due to his poor Martial Arts aptitude, he hadn’t paid much attention to Martial Arts itself and wasn’t too familiar with these elixirs.
The other bone structure image was starkly opposite.
The bone structure exuded a cold white light, dazzling in brightness, basically humanoid, yet the ten fingers slightly mutated into Crane Claws, and the joints between bones were exceptionally smooth.
This bone structure image naturally belonged to Feng Mu.
Comparing this image with Wang Cong’s, Qian Huan felt Feng Mu’s bone structure was bright enough to reflect layers of shadow below the bones, making prolonged observation blur his vision a bit.
The report concluded as follows:
Bone structure fm remains stable in humanoid form, low probability of mutation, assumed to have practiced 12 Martial Arts, with Old Martial Arts accounting for 82%, Martial Arts grade low.
Reverse calculation value score: 14.4 points
Life hierarchy: moderate.
Martial Arts grade: fourth grade
Danger level: C level
Note: Life origin abundant and overflowing, advised to be included in Medicine Man inventory for scientific cultivation.
