"Just like this?"
Ansheng looked at Old Li with a face full of disbelief and said, "I thought you found an ancient corpse floating in the universe or something."
"Don't you have Spiritual Particle-proof glass? Just seal them in there and let the researchers go in fully armed. Why are you afraid of them coming back to life?"
"That's true, but there's a four-hour journey from the landing site to the research institute. If anything unexpected happens, it'll be like unleashing a King of the Universe in a big city."
"Moreover, the route goes through the Imperial Capital. It's not something to be taken lightly," Li Wenkang said, unable to hold back a laugh as he continued, "Don't forget, you have a multimillion-dollar mansion in the Imperial Capital."
As soon as Li Wenkang spoke, a flash of gold lit up in Master Fuli's mind, revealing a wish.
[On the way, may nothing go wrong. The possibility of the corpse reviving is almost none, but if there are dormant spores on the corpse, it could be a disaster. — Li Wenkang was internally apprehensive about bringing the Dragon People corpse back hastily, but if ignored, humans would never understand how creatures of the Spirit Particle Era absorbed Spiritual Particles. If everything is to be stable, we need to wait until the Cosmic Celestial Palace is built, but that would be five to ten years later.]
[Wish fulfilled: Sir's Devotion (From the corpse of the demonic beings of ancient times, returning to Blue Star. They supported immortality during their lifetime, but their dead bodies have become a major boost in Spiritual Particle technology.)]
Li Wenkang spoke to Master Fuli, jokingly sharing his worries.
Even if the entire Security Bureau was dispatched to track the returning capsule on the great prairie, there would still be a vacuum period of about five to ten minutes during which the corpse would be unguarded.
No one knows what kind of chemical reactions might occur during this time.
Especially since the transport route passes through the Imperial Capital, no mishaps can happen.
Rather than considering every possibility, it might be better to find a master to perform a ritual and eliminate the possibility of the Dragon People coming back to life.
Maybe no such person existed before, but now Xia Country has such a fox.
"...If you could, try to schedule the operation at night! Call me when the time comes."
Ansheng glanced at the wish list, and when he saw some keywords, his eyelid twitched involuntarily.
The details page of the wish list directly and straightforwardly highlighted which criminals were imprisoned in that prison.
[Second Epoch] Immortality supporters — this is quite an unfamiliar term.
But Ansheng could clearly understand the words "demonic corpse" written above.
The wish list called them demons.
So they must have been quite reckless in life, and who's to say they can't come back to life and strangle humans after death?
"It's best if you agree," Li Wenkang couldn't help clapping his hands in delight, smiling at Master Fuli. "I'll try my best with the timing, and I'll also have to trouble Professor Wang Ya once again."
"We'll try our best to real-time correct translation errors over the next four days."
Having completed all tasks for this mission, Li Wenkang couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.
"If there's nothing else, I'll head back first." Ansheng nodded slightly, turned around to leave, planning to scrounge for food and drinks at Lin Ying's place with the greedy snake.
"Actually, I have a small private matter that isn't much of a big deal."
Li Wenkang got up from his seat and, as he walked towards the door of the residents' committee, spoke to Master Fuli: "The Xinxing Agricultural Science College will finish all their courses by mid-January, and students will be entering vertical farming factories for learning."
"Don't worry about Ah Qing, it's certain that fifth-year students will be dealing with Spirit Beasts....."
"For the sake of your rear end, I suggest you think about how to explain it to Ah Qing soon!"
Li Wenkang turned and walked out, waving a hand to bid farewell to Master Fuli.
"My rear end?"
"Is Ah Qing going to inject me with the Spirit Particle Potion?" Ansheng looked at Li Wenkang with a face full of surprise.
"Most likely, because.....with your daily performance being so lively, if I were her, I'd inject you too." Li Wenkang made a teasing remark before disappearing down a dimly lit street.
From Ansheng's usual human-like behavior, any fifth-year student who saw it would determine that Ansheng is quite close to achieving spiritualization.
All for the sake of research projects or out of curiosity, it wouldn't be hard for students to request Spirit Particle Potions from their professors.
"...You make it sound so easy, but if I really start talking, wouldn't Ah Qing and the others box me up with tape and leave me under a bridge waiting for some kind soul to take me in..."
Ansheng lamented with a face full of helplessness, turned, and rode off on the Eye King towards the fishing ground.
Coming clean with Ah Qing.
When Ansheng had just gained the ability to transform into a human, he planned to reveal himself to Ah Qing and even ran to the hospital under human guise to greet her.
But as time passed, Ah Qing and the others grew more accustomed to having a fox in the dormitory, and they let their guard down more.
He even witnessed Lingren running around naked in the dorm, and Momo wrapped in a towel drying off.
A male in a ladies' dormitory isn't exactly a good reputation.
But...
What Li Wenkang said made sense.
Come next year, when Ah Qing learns about the Spirit Beasts, she'll certainly ask the professors for Spirit Particle Potions, injecting him five times a day, and given her stature, the professors wouldn't refuse.
"Maybe..."
"I should inject myself now, then gradually exhibit the traits of a Spirit Beast?"
Ansheng displayed a contemplative expression, seriously pondering this significant matter in his fox life.
"Xiaolan!"
The fox sat perched on the big snake, heading straight through the bushes toward Chen Zhiyu's office, but as he passed the stage, Ah Qing's voice echoed from the cafeteria.
"Eh?"
Ansheng looked puzzled and let out a little whimper as Ah Qing gradually approached him.
"It's nothing much, but Aunt Yuyu mentioned she wanted to hug you for comfort. She's feeling quite sorry for herself. Could you help by cheering her up?"
Ah Qing halted the snake train, affectionately kneading the little fox's shoulders, and pointed to Yuyu inside the cafeteria.
"...Seems kind of troublesome." Ansheng looked at Ah Qing's face up close, unable to hold back a complaint.
"How can it be troublesome! Just go over there, lie down in her lap, and let your legs dangle." Ah Qing grinned, picked up the little fox, and carried him to the cafeteria to sit down with her big black snake.
She placed the little fox in Yuyu's arms.
Ansheng widened his eyes and stared into Yuyu's eyes.
It was you who interrupted my quest for cola and in finding out how extreme my brother could get, wasn't it?
