“Number Five!” The guard’s voice could be heard.
The other drug men sighed in relief. No matter how much experience they had, of course, they would prefer to lessen the pain as much as they could.
Lu Mingshu walked to the door slowly.
Her cooperative attitude pleased the guards. The younger the better. She was strong but obedient, unlike those noisy ones that had to be taught a lesson.
As soon as they reached the lab, the Drug Lord rushed toward her and started to touch her everywhere, not caring that Lu Mingshu was a girl. But his intention was nothing more than checking the result.
Lu Mingshu felt ultimately disgusted by it. His scaly hands that were eroded by the long-term contact with drugs were all around Lu Mingshu now, making her shudder.
She tried to flip his hand off, but the Drug Lord didn’t even care. “Such a good, young, and useful body! Oh my, look at the end result!”
Lu Mingshu struggled out of his grip and dusted herself off. If I didn’t do what Xiao Sang said, do you think your experiment would be this good?
However, the Drug Lord didn’t even care about how she felt toward him. He smiled and instructed her to be tied to the bucket.
“Little cutie, this is different from the previous time. Be prepared!” This time, the liquid poured into the bucket was a piping hot one. The turquoise color was paired with the scent of grass.
After the first time, Lu Mingshu had already mentally prepared herself for it. As soon as the Drug Lord poured a bowl of black liquid in the bucket, the liquid started to boil. Bubbles could be seen, followed by an explosion.
Lu Mingshu immediately felt the pain. However, the pain was a different type from yesterday’s. She felt that her skin was eroding and that she was being burned in fire. Her muscles felt like they had already been melted into a pool of unknown liquid.
“Ah…!”
Seeing her shout in pain, the Drug Lord clapped and lifted up her sleeve. “Eh, it’s only slightly red? That’s good! Perfect immune system! Come, let’s add more!”
He poured another bowl of black liquid into the bucket.
“Ahhhhh…!” Lu Mingshu let out a blood-curdling scream. She felt her organs eroding too now, even though it wasn’t actually happening.
Seeing her in pain made the Drug Lord even happier. He looked like he was on cloud nine. “Very good. No material has ever been able to withstand such reaction. I may be done today! Hahaha.”
He hurried to the stone table and mixed another liquid that was light in colour. He then poured it into the bucket.
The Drug Lord continuously poured in different bowls of coloured liquid. He even made Lu Mingshu drink some. In the end, Lu Mingshu started hallucinating. She thought she was already dead and that her body had eroded, giving out a stench. However, her mind was still working and she was clearly awake. Everything she had ever learned now appeared in front of her. Questions that she couldn’t solve could suddenly be solved. But it was so fast that she didn’t even have the time to look at it properly and memorize it. Her brain was functioning way better than what she thought to be her limits.
The Drug Lord placed many different gemstones beside her. The gemstones lit up one by one.
“Hahahaha.” The Drug Lord danced around. “I’m indeed a genius. Stimulating the body can enhance the mind! But how far can it go through? Increase in intensity!”
Even though the Drug Lord treasured all his lab rats, he didn’t really care about the impact caused to them. It was hard to find such a wonderful constitution, but compared to his results, it was all nothing.
…
“One day has already passed, so why is she still not awake? Old woman, shouldn’t she wake up even faster than the first time?”
“According to common sense, yes.”
“Then why is she still not awake yet?”
“What do you think I am? God?”
“Haish. Look at you….”
Lu Mingshu slowly opened her eyes. She could hear the conversation between the uncle and the old woman, but she was too tired to care.
Lu Mingshu felt like her head was going to explode. However, her body that felt ruined now felt comfortable. Her mystic force moved around her body slowly.
Even though it was a grade B technique, the Transformation of Bones was not easy to train. Ensuring that one got used to the poison before they were harmed was hard, but the Drug Lord took care of everything for her.
The liquids he poured in contained both poisons and tonics. The poisons harmed her while the tonics did the opposite. With the Transformation of Bones as well, she used the poisons for energy.
If not for the urgent situation, she would want to stay here for a long time. With her techniques, Xiao Sang’s pointers, and the Drug Lord’s experiments, it was the best way for her to train. The herbs used on her cost an arm and a leg, so how could she afford it normally?
But that wasn’t the main thing.
She remembered something that the Drug Lord said.
Stimulating the body can enhance the mind? That is to say…
No. Lu Mingshu shook her head. She was so drained that she couldn’t think. I need a rest right now….
Lu Mingshu lay back down and continued to sleep.
She didn’t know how many days passed.
It’s quiet. Lu Mingshu sat up after a while.
The same old cell, with a bucket of clear water beside her, new clothes, and a basket with food.
Lu Mingshu felt extremely light as if her mind was empty. Things that limited her thinking were all gone now. She became more sensitive to her surroundings. She could even feel what was going on in the other cells.
Seven cells, except for the first, were all filled.
The uncle next to her was slowly moving. His body was destroyed, but he still held on to a string of hope.
On the other hand, the old woman sat there silently.
Lu Mingshu leaned against the wall. Her eyesight was blurry, but her brain was working quickly.
She realized that her brain was working much faster now, and her calculations had sped up!
Only two times, yet the result is so good! He may be a lunatic, but he’s indeed a genius.
No. Lu Mingshu hadn’t forgotten what she was here for. Xie Lianzhen. Where did he go?
The stench on her body was so unbearable that Lu Mingshu scrunched her face in disgust. I’ll clean up first.
