Chapter 122: Research Tower

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

To be honest, Bai Wushang’s feelings toward his foster mother were quite complicated.

He had once been in a rebellious phase and thought that Yang Luqi was just a bad person who used his body as an experiment in the name of raising him.

However, this ‘bad person’ did not really hurt him and provided him with good food, drinks, and fun. After that, she placed him in the Mu family’s care and never stopped sending allowance.

Bai Wushang asked himself, if it wasn’t for this person, he wouldn’t have been able to live until now.

How could an ordinary boy, who was alone and had nothing, survive in this Transcendent Realm?

Not to mention the life he had lived for the past ten years. He wasn’t very rich, but he was well-fed, lived well, and spent all his energy on reading, studying, and exercising.

Hence, even though the number of times they communicated each year was limited and they hadn’t seen each other for a long time, Bai Wushang still treated her as his elder.

If the people around him were ranked according to their importance, then the two people at the top could only be Mu Xiaoxiao and Yang Luqi. These were the only two candidates.

“Beep — ”

They had arrived at their destination.

What appeared in front of Bai Wushang was a tall tower.

“Research Tower was one of the landmark buildings of Mountain and Sea?Academy. It covers an area of 2,000 mu and has a total of 101 floors. Its total height is over 1,200 meters, and it can accommodate thousands of researchers working at the same time...”

The description on the wristwatch wasn’t enough to express its uniqueness.

Hence, when Bai Wushang stood at the bottom of the tower and raised his head to look at the spiral-shaped tower, he was shocked to find that the research tower was actually made of secret gold.

It was a particularly strong and precious metal with extremely low permeability. It was hard to imagine the specific construction cost of this building.

Walking into the main door, there was exquisite and clear floor-to-ceiling glass everywhere. The windows were bright and clean, and it was magnificent. Immediately, a beautifully dressed attendant approached and politely inquired about the purpose of his visit.

“I want to go to the 90th floor to visit Ms. Yang Luqi,” Bai Wushang said frankly.

“The 90th floor? The 60th floor and above are all working areas for special researchers. They are generally not open to the public...”

The female attendant’s thin eyebrows suddenly jumped. She secretly looked at Bai Wushang and asked tentatively, “Excuse me, do you have an appointment?”

“Special researchers?” Bai Wushang’s eyes moved slightly as he thought to himself, “Aunt Lu seems to be doing quite well... it’s reasonable. It fits her personality as a research maniac...”

Just as he was about to answer, a voice suddenly sounded, “He doesn’t need to make an appointment. Little An, bring him up.”

“Lady... Lady Sha?!” The attendant was shocked.

It turned out that this voice came from the communication talisman on her collar.

It was a special tool that only the management had the authority to issue orders.

“Do you need me to repeat it again? Little An, be more efficient.”

The female attendant’s face turned slightly pale and she quickly replied, “Yes, I got it!”

“This voice sounds a little familiar. The surname is Sha... could it be Sister Shasha?”

Bai Wushang was deep in thought as a figure appeared in his mind.

Following the attendant, they passed through more than a dozen defensive devices along the way. They also repeatedly encountered patrolling guards with pet beasts.

After a full ten minutes, Bai Wushang finally arrived at the 90th floor on the cloud ladder.

When the door opened, he saw a huge white wall in the background. A half-human half-snake creature was smiling and paying attention to him.

Her upper body was humanoid. Her red lips were dazzling, and her face was extremely beautiful.

Her skin was soft and smooth, and her skin was flushed with pink. Her plump body was full of temptation, making people think of ripe peaches.

Her lower body was a long and thick snake tail covered in dark green scales. It coiled on the ground and supported her entire body.

[ Name ] : Snake Lady (Bound)

[ Race ] : Demon Beast Realm, Human Beast Hybrid, Snake Lady Race

[ Life Level ] : Intermediate phase of the ultimate form

[ Bloodline Quality ] : Commander Level 6-star

...

“Sister Shasha, it really is you!” Bai Wushang revealed a pleasantly surprised expression.

“Yeah, Wushang, long time no see.”

The Snake Lady, Mei Sha, smiled as she moved her tail and came over. “Come, follow me to the room and sit down.”

The guards behind her, including the attendant, all bowed and took their leave. The cloud ladder was closed again.

Bai Wushang followed the Snake Lady and came to a very high-end VIP reception room. He held a cup of hot tea in his hand and sighed, “In the blink of an eye, it’s been ten years. Sister Shasha, you’ve also evolved. Your ultimate form and semi-human form have changed too much!”

“Hehe, Wushang, didn’t you also grow up? According to your human evaluation, you’re also a spiritual young man.”

Snake Lady Mei Sha’s voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of coldness in it.

Bai Wushang did not seem to notice, because this was a normal phenomenon. It was extremely difficult for transcendent creatures to speak human language.

Scenes of the past appeared one after another. This half-human half-snake creature in front of him was Yang Luqi’s first pet beast.

When he first saw her ten years ago, she was still a full-body ‘Snake Demon’. Her entire body was covered in snake scales, and her appearance was abhorrent. At that time, she even scared Bai Wushang until he cried.

However, not long after, Bai Wushang started playing with her. Or rather, she was playing with him, trying to make him happy.

“Now that I think about it, I was really bold when I was young. I actually dared to play with a Snake Demon.” Bai Wushang could not help but laugh.

He turned to ask about serious matters, “Sister Shasha, where’s Aunt Lu?”

“She’s currently doing an experiment. It’s at a critical moment, so it will take a while before it ends.” Snake Lady Mei Sha smiled faintly.

“It’s the same again, exactly the same as ten years ago...”

Bai Wushang pursed his lips, he could not help but ridicule, “She really deserves the title of research maniac. She has such a powerful transcendent creature like you as her companion, yet she is completely engrossed in research. She can be considered a Master who has been delayed by scientific research, right?”

“That’s true, but I can understand her.”

Snake Lady Mei Sha took a sip of tea and teased, “Your Aunt Lu is now one of the only eight special grade researchers in the academy. As for me, I also have the title of ‘Instructor’. I am one of the security management staff of this tower.”

Bai Wushang could not help but ask, “Sister Shasha, I am a little curious. Where does this Research Tower stand in Mountain and Sea Academy?”

“Oh...” Snake Lady Mei Sha thought for a while and explained, “This is like a large research center that belongs to the Mountain and Sea?Academy, but it does not have any direct contact with the students. In principle, it is under the personal jurisdiction of the Dean.”

“Many new pet beast breeding ideas, methods of using supernatural biological materials, potion formulas, and training equipment... These are all research topics here, and they are all in the hands of different researchers. Take your Aunt Lu, for example, her main focus has always been on ‘Blood Potion’ and ‘Ancient Foreign Language’, along with some new products like mechanical metals. For instance, the wristwatch in your hand was developed and designed by her...”

“She invented this?!”

Bai Wushang opened his mouth to say something, but he hesitated.

When he was young, he didn’t have much of an idea. He only knew that his foster mother was a scientist and had some skills.

But now, Bai Wushang had a more intuitive and clear understanding of her ability.
