Chapter 390 Evolution Ceremony

Xie Mingke sighed. She worked at the school and had to work in the foreign affairs group after get off work. The only free time on weekends was for this inexplicable man.

The more she thought about it, the more depressed she became. She glanced at the pet trading market table on the screen and answered the call.

"Hello? Are you still awake?" Han Ning's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Well, I'm busy. What's the matter with Mr. Han Ning?" Xie Mingke tried to make her voice smooth.

"A small relic appeared in the deep mountains outside Tonghe County. Do you know about it?"

"Small relic?"

Xie Mingke knew that the "you" in Han Ning's mouth referred to the foreign affairs group, not her alone.

She frowned slightly and replied: "I haven't heard of it. Is there an abnormal situation there?"

"It seems that the power of your foreign affairs group is not very good. This small relic has appeared for at least 5 days, and a group of people have been killed."

Han Ning told Xie Mingke about the situation of meeting Li Changxi tonight.

He felt that Li Changxi was not lying. His mental power was far superior to the latter. He could clearly see the other person's heartbeat, pulse, and eye changes, and easily judge whether the other person was lying.

"Perhaps the abnormal energy fluctuations of the ruins are not obvious enough to be detected by the detectors in the city center."

"Or the energy fluctuations are deliberately hidden."

"In short, I didn't receive any relevant information."

"Mr. Han Ning, what do you mean?"

Han Ning replied:

"Don't worry, the ruins are too dangerous, I won't ask you to join."

"If I choose to enter the ruins, I will send you a message in time before entering. If you don't return within a period of time, don't hesitate to report the information of the ruins to your leader directly."

"Okay, I got it."

Silence for a moment...

Xie Ming, who was typing seriously, could see that Han Ning hadn't hung up the voice, and asked tentatively:

"Mr. Han Ning?"

"Oh, maybe I need your help."

"...Please go ahead."

"Please try to help me collect the night grass, roaring flower, dark spring..."

Han Ning repeated the materials needed for the evolution of egg pancakes and small fat silkworms.

None of these materials involve extraordinary properties, and he doesn't know whether they are expensive or not. Anyway, he told Xie Mingke, Zhang Nengfa, and the psychopath Li Changxi and asked them to collect them simultaneously.

The extra materials can be resold later.

"..."

"It is a bit difficult to collect all the materials you mentioned within one day."

"Try to find as many as you can."

Han Ning now wants to become stronger as soon as possible and find the remaining soul beasts.

As for thanking Xie Mingke, he will talk about it later, because he doesn't have the ability now.

"Okay... I have sorted out the locations of the pet trading markets you requested earlier. Can I send them to you now?"

Xie Mingke clicked the mouse and pressed Save.

"Okay, thank you. [Smile]"

...

The next day, Han Ning took the form sent by Xie Mingke and first found 3 small pet trading markets that were not marked on the navigation software.

This kind of market is generally similar to a fair, existing in the suburbs of the city, and it is normal that it is not marked on the navigation software.

The morning market is only in the morning. At his speed, he can only run to 3 locations in the morning.

The result was disappointing. No familiar vibrations were heard from the three locations.

In the afternoon, he went to the police station near the place where Li Lu died again and was asked some questions by the official staff.

Until now, Han Ning has been curious about what Xiaolian handed over to Xu Ping a few nights ago.

However, there have been several more foreign affairs personnel standing guard near Li Lu's house recently, and it is not convenient for him to approach.

When she first met Xie Mingke, she was temporarily called over by her leader to monitor the situation nearby.

As a result, she happened to meet him who was killing wild cats.

Everything went wrong. In the evening, Han Ning, who had just returned home, had his phone ring again.

He turned on the screen and took a look.

Peanut was confused: "What are you doing these two days? Why don't you pay attention to me? Are you busy with work?"

These days, Han Ning was busy looking for Yin Yi and others. How could he have the time to have an online romance with a strange female college student.

He casually scrolled up the chat history and found that this girl had sent him at least hundreds of messages in three days.

From what he ate every day to what songs he listened to and what he did, he wrote down everything in words and sent it to me.

To be honest, seeing these words full of girlish atmosphere, even Han Ning, who didn't feel anything, felt that he was a little too indifferent.

So, he replied: "Yes, I'm very busy. I'm busy with the case and work."

Almost in a second.

Peanuts and persimmons: "I feel you have changed."

Less spicy and no sugar: "?"

Peanuts and persimmons: "Intuition, I feel like you have changed. You are not the bald programmer uncle you used to be. [Cat secretly monitors]"

Women's sixth sense does have something, and it is indeed a different person.

If he hadn't known from his previous life's memory that the person on the other end of the dialog box was a female college student, he would have thought he had met some extraordinary person who could predict the future.

Han Ning was vague: "Maybe."

Peanuts and persimmons: "..."

Even if the other party didn't continue to reply, Han Ning could see the girl's sadness from this line of ellipsis.

After all, he is not his predecessor, and he doesn't want to engage in an online romance with her. He thinks it is not a good idea to keep her hanging like this.

So, I responded directly and directly: "We will try to reduce contact as much as possible in the future, and you will be the account owner."

Peanuts are nothing but persimmons: "..."

After that, the other party fell into a long silence.

Han Ning switched back to the takeout app, ordered a few stir-fried dishes, put down her phone, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Ten minutes later, when he finished washing and returned to the living room, he picked up the phone again.

I found an extra row of chat message boxes on the screen.

What a waste of money: "Today I mustered up the courage and went to a canteen I had never been to before. The terrain was unfamiliar and I fell down several times."

“But fortunately, there were many kind-hearted classmates who helped me along the way, so this adventure was successfully completed [victory]”

"Pedestrians on the road can only help me solve my mobility problems."

"But...bald man, you are the first person who walked into my heart, understood my dreams, and encouraged me to pursue my dreams...I don't want you to leave me, please..."

"Chasing dreams..."

Han Ning frowned and searched through the memories of his predecessor.

"Is it her dream to dub and be the CV of an ACG work?"

There were only a few words of encouragement in the memory of my predecessor, but I didn't expect that this girl would remember him so deeply.

"Also, she seems to be blind."

Han Ning sighed softly: "I am indeed not him. Just think of me as his friend. The original owner of the account is in trouble and will not come back in a short time."

What's wrong with peanuts? "Ah? What's wrong with him?"

Less spicy and no added sugar: “He’s fine.”

What's wrong with peanuts: "Well, if he comes back, you must notify me."

Less spicy and no added sugar: "If he comes back, I won't need to notify him."

…

The chat came to an abrupt end, and Han Ning put down her phone and waited quietly for the early morning.

A few hours later.

In a remote coffee shop near the Blue Bay Bar.

Li Changxi, whose whole body was shrouded in shadow, with only a pair of bloodshot eyes exposed, placed a heavy wooden box on the table.

"Here are all the materials I can collect. Of the 42 materials you mentioned, I have collected 36. There are also several officially controlled materials that are difficult for me to obtain."

Hearing this, Han Ning opened the wooden box and counted it.

All the materials that can allow Egg Pancake to evolve have been collected.

The only difference is the dark type of several small fat silkworms, which require rare materials.

However, being able to collect 36 species in one day was beyond his expectation.

He was satisfied inside and pretended to be calm on the surface: "Give me another three days."

"Three days...I...I can't hold it anymore." Li Changxi gritted his teeth.

He understood that what the other party meant by saying this was that he agreed to go to the ruins together.

"Put your head over here."

"You want it?" Li Changxi was stunned, but still obediently stretched his head in the direction of Han Ning.

Han Ning stretched out his hand and touched Li Changxi's eyebrows, using his spiritual energy to penetrate.

A ray of tenacious mental power from the Four Symbols Meditation method penetrated into the depths of Li Changxi's mind.

In an instant, Han Ning's ears seemed to hear the voices of hundreds of people mumbling to themselves.

"This is...a curse, a bit like the curse that the Aratak people suffered from Home."

Han Ning had some experience with this. He turned his spirit into a sharp blade and tried to cut off all the irritating murmurs in his ears.

Uh-huh!

In the empty space, a sharp sword seemed to pass through.

Li Changxi's cheeks instantly turned pale.

"Ahem, cough!"

He suddenly coughed loudly, and two meandering streams of blood flowed from his nostrils. The shape was scary.

Despite this, his expression was extremely exciting.

After a few messy coughs, he widened his eyes and rubbed his cheeks in disbelief.

"I...I can't feel that annoying murmuring sound anymore."

"This is just a temporary suppression...I can't find the root cause, but it should help you relieve it for a few days. There should be no problem now."

Han Ning retracted his finger and spoke calmly.

"Shihua is right, you are indeed our savior... Thank you very much for your life-saving grace. Everything is subject to your arrangements."

As soon as Han Ning made a move, Li Changxi fell to the ground in admiration.

He even took out the blood-soaked python head from another bag and handed it to Han Ning: "Please accept this item. I hope it can help you."

"Well, that's it for now. You go back and recuperate for two days. I'll let you know when I leave." Han Ning did not refuse and accepted decisively.

"Okay, it's up to you."

…

Late at night.

Han Ning thought for a while and sent another message to Xie Mingke: "Are you there [smile]"

Soon, there was a reply from the other side: "I am working hard to collect the materials you mentioned, and I have collected so much so far..."

Before Han Ning could ask, Xie Mingke took the initiative to send a chart.

Han Ning browsed through it and found that Xie Ming could collect 16 kinds of materials, 5 of which Li Changxi had not collected.

In this way, the total number of materials comes to 41/42.

There is also a powerful hallucinogenic plant called "Mystic Grass".

"Thank you. Do you have any clues about the Mystic Grass?"

Originally, Han Ning didn't even have any plans.

As a result, Xie Mingke quickly replied: "Yes."

"In the Botanical Research Institute of Ludao University, there are more than a dozen plants of the Mystic Grass used for experimental cultivation, but the laboratory's anti-theft standards are very high, and I can't get them."

"Ludao University... Aren't you a teacher at Ludao University?"

"Mr. Han, I'm not a teacher of botany, I'm a literature teacher [smile]"

"In addition, I need to tell you that Mr. Xu Lin in the laboratory is my direct leader in the Foreign Affairs Group. He is a Sequence 8 Extraordinary, and the Extraordinary Sequence is a Botanist."

"Haha, your school is really full of talents Ah, then please, Mr. Xie, help me get the opening and closing schedule of the laboratory. I didn't ask you for the internal structure diagram. This request... is very simple, right? "

"You... you want to steal?"

"Stealing is too ugly. I should say borrowing. I will return items of equal value when I have the chance."

Xie Mingke was still persuading: "I advise you to give up this idea... Mr. Xu is quite capable."

"Don't bother you to worry about it. Get me the schedule as soon as possible."

"If you don't say it, I'll take it as your agreement."

In front of the screen, Xie Mingke's delicate face changed several times.

Finally, she sighed faintly and murmured to herself in an imperceptible voice: "I am getting deeper and deeper."

...

In the simple bathroom.

Han Ning stood in front of a bucket full of ice cubes, looking at the light blue liquid in a plastic bottle in the palm of his hand, and a long-lost joy appeared on his face.

This is a blood purification potion called "Cold Mist Potion", which can help egg pancakes evolve to a higher form.

The egg pancake's bloodline purification, or evolution, needs to be in an environment close to 0℃.

The refrigerator was too small, so he went to a convenience store temporarily, bought out all the ice in the store, and bought a big bathtub, and poured all the ice into it.

"Come on, egg pancake, you will become bigger and stronger tonight."

"Are you ready?"

"Hiss!"

The egg pancake took the initiative to jump into the ice bucket. Come on, I can't wait!

"Open your mouth."

"Hiss!!"

The egg pancake obeyed and opened its mouth.

Han Ning opened the bottle cap and poured a small pool of liquid in the bottle into its mouth.

The cold mist flashed in its mouth and then disappeared.

Swish!

In an instant, there seemed to be a faint dragon roar in the air.

The egg pancake's originally white scales quickly turned into aqua blue.

At the same time, the water element gathered, the indoor temperature dropped, and its body began to grow rapidly.

The cold water in the ice bucket gradually formed ice cubes.

The originally transparent ice gradually turned light blue.

A shrunken ancient dragon phantom suddenly emerged from the snake-like body of the egg pancake.

This ancient dragon spiritual power from the purple crystal world seemed to have endowed this pet snake body with different magical abilities.

A round little bulge slowly bulged from the egg pancake's head.

Four bulges also appeared on its abdomen.

A row of blue spikes like mane grew on the midline of the back.

"Is this... affected by the ancient dragon bloodline, turning into a dragon?"
