CHAPTER 61: CHAPTER 60: PRIVATE CONTAINMENT

"The [Expel Disease] ability of Senior Sister Ding Shao’ai from Zhiyuan Academy, you should have already copied it with [Myriad Transformations], right?"

Ma Ran didn’t give Su Qiangwei much time to think, he said in a deep voice: "Here in A3 District, there are some patients with very difficult conditions that need your treatment."

Ding Shao’ai, a Pillar Level superpower [Expel Disease] controller, can freely expel any hidden diseases within a human body within a one-meter range without physical contact.

This includes the "five most incurable diseases of the 21st century on Earth": cancer, AIDS, motor neuron disease, leukemia, and rheumatoid arthritis.

The side effect is...

With each patient treated, Ding Shao’ai will randomly lose some memory fragments.

The severity of memory loss is directly proportional to the number and nature of the patients’ conditions.

Therefore, Ding Shao’ai herself is not suitable to come and support right now.

Only Su Qiangwei can be counted on to take on more work.

Su Qiangwei did not answer, sitting expressionlessly by the hospital bed.

She was still pondering what Ma Ran had just said.

One hundred twenty-eight acupoints...

Seventh Rank of Inner Qi!

Damn! (Calcium oxide)

This cultivation speed is simply insane!

Su Qiangwei, with a dark expression, counted on her fingers.

She roughly needs another three to four days to fill the second acupoint and convert it into a mature micro-organ, truly advancing to the First Rank of Inner Qi.

Hmph...

No big deal!

The indomitable Su Qiangwei maintained a great attitude.

After taking a deep breath, she quickly adjusted her mood and returned to her usual calm demeanor.

No need to say more!

With some more effort, in three days, she will be able to fill and catalyze the second acupoint!

By then, Su Qiangwei will be one of the only two in Grass Hut Academy to reach the First Rank of Inner Qi!

This thought made her feel much better.

"To save people?"

"Got it."

The girl in the hospital gown cracked her knuckles: "I’m leaving now!"

It is said that this habit can make your finger joints become thick.

But...

It’s just like staying up late.

Knowing it’s not good for the body, but still can’t resist doing it.

...

After confirming that A3 District was truly safe, Su Qiangwei quickly got a temporary pass signed by the Yingchuan Academy.

There were no dangerous factors in the aftercare, so President Huang did not stop Su Qiangwei from going over as he did before.

Previously, Song Chu also had a similar time-limited pass when he came to A3 District, which was valid for a set period.

Unlike Ma Ran, who could come anytime at will.

Grabbing the little walnut hidden in his pocket, Ma Ran focused his mind, transmitting a thought: "Your current mission is to learn Chinese as soon as possible, while ensuring you remain hidden."

"You have two weeks to complete the task."

"If you can’t do it, you’ll be killed."

After devouring most of the spiritual power of the Nightmare Mother 98725 through the Enclosure Text, Ma Ran’s will became more formidable.

His spiritual power also became more refined and solid!

Even without speaking, Ma Ran could simply transmit some thoughts by concentrating his attention.

Doing so, however, would greatly consume his energy.

The completely invisible little walnut trembled inside his pocket: "Learn, Chinese."

"No refusal!"

Proven by facts, under the shadow of death, any intelligent life can explode with potential that even they couldn’t believe.

See?

had already learned two more new words.

"Brother Ma Ran! We meet again!"

Ma Ran looked up and saw Yang Guangzhao, looking slightly tired, waving at him from the entrance.

Thinking it over, it was reasonable for him to be summoned to A3 District.

After all, Yang Guangzhao was a [Pain Eater] ability user, able to erase the painful memories of survivors; wherever there’s aftercare work, that’s where his figure could be seen.

Wearing a black and blue tracksuit, with a stubbly beard, Yang Guangzhao ran excitedly up to Ma Ran.

His spirit was high, his face blushing: "I just left a few days ago, and I’m back again."

"Perhaps you don’t even know..."

"This time, you’ve made a huge contribution!"

"Friends at the command division told me, based on the intelligence gathered from the scene, if it wasn’t for you, all over a thousand people in A3 District would have been wiped out!"

Saying this, Yang Guangzhao burst out laughing heartily: "Commendations, merit certificates, military medals, honorary titles, bonuses, all these are standard procedures."

"Those brothers you saved, once they wake up, they’ll surely owe you a favor."

"This counts as your network!"

"Even if they don’t say it, they’ll remember it in their hearts."

"Rest assured!"

"We who’ve been forged in the great melting pot are all sensible men."

"If something comes up, a word from you is enough!"

"No one will refuse!"

"Whoever dares to act ungrateful will be pointed at for life!"

Ma Ran’s eye twitched as he interrupted: "You’re not from the northeast, are you?"

Realizing his accent, Yang Guangzhao blushed: "I’m from Inner Mongolia!"

"It’s those bastards, messing around with memes all day!"

"This accent is infectious, toxic even!"

Speaking of this, Yang Guangzhao suddenly lowered his voice, pointing upwards, speaking firmly: "Here’s one idea, in confidence, between us, don’t tell a third person..."

"The top brass have started to take you seriously."

"In the past, do you know what your situation would have been called?"

"It’s called a future with ’boundless prospects’!"

He was genuinely happy for Ma Ran, and once he started talking, he couldn’t stop: "Also, I heard that Qinglian Academy in Sichuan and Zhiyuan Academy in Beijing..."

"These two have jointly developed a drug that can effectively amplify the cultivation speed of Inner Qi."

"Safety and drug tests have already been passed, with no hidden dangers, only benefits."

"With your merits, you’ll definitely be among the first to enjoy it."

Ma Ran nodded slightly.

With [play] at hand, he had no need for cultivation materials, but more good things were always welcome.

The institutional development potential that Yang Guangzhao valued indeed benefited Ma Ran’s Earth Civilization rescue plan.

This time coming to A3 District, Ma Ran had already gained its greatest benefits.

1. Inner Qi advancement.

2. Spiritual power increased by about sixty percent.

3. Personally contained the Nightmare Mother.

Seeing Ma Ran not too concerned, Yang Guangzhao actively changed the topic: "It’s spreading everywhere, saying you took down seventy-four Inner Qi Cultivators armed with hot weapons unharmed, is it true?"

If this news was about anyone else, Yang Guangzhao would scoff, taking it as a tall tale, a boast.

But applied to Ma Ran...

This news, inexplicably, held credibility!

Ma Ran looked up at the sky, exhaling hot air.

Only three people experienced the A3 District incident.

At that time, Song Chu was still on his way to the shelter!

So...

The source of the news was quite clear.

"..."

Ma Ran stayed silent for a while, slightly nodding, agreeing with him: "Those seventy-four people were strong, very strong!"

"One could say they were the elite among the elite."

"Not only well-trained and fully armed, but they were also under control by extraterrestrial life, shooting without any hesitation, striking viciously, without mercy."

"So..."

"Unarmed, I was forced to retaliate and quickly subdued them."

Yang Guangzhao suddenly felt a shiver.

He didn’t care for details, just wanted to verify the truth of the matter.

Coming from Yingchuan Academy, Yang Guangzhao focused on superpowers, lacking in Inner Qi Cultivation, only having a rough understanding.

He looked deeply at Ma Ran, thoughts running wild.

Have current Black Rock Martial Arts practitioners already disregarded hot weapons?!

Is Ma Ran’s situation an exception or a general phenomenon?

If it’s the latter...

Martial heroes rebel, scholars disrupt order!

Inner Qi Cultivation might be hard to popularize...

Seeing Ma Ran’s nonchalant attitude, he took a deep breath, just about to speak when he heard the sharp sound of tires skidding on the ground.

Squeak, squeak, squeak!

Yang Guangzhao and Ma Ran turned towards the sound, only to see a delicate girl in a sky-blue hospital gown sauntering out of an off-road vehicle...
