Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 932: Chapter 349: Activation Technique Progress, Surprising Mining News! (Part 2)

Liang Yuan watched Lu Yuyan leave, still marveling in his heart that despite her young age and slender figure, she had grown such a prominent bust.

You could only say she was extraordinarily gifted.

He shook his head slightly and turned to study the Rune Bone.

But he suddenly noticed that Ding Yan was leaning against the doorway, looking at him with a half-smile.

"So, how’s the sixteen-year-old anime girl? Nice to look at?"

Ding Yan chuckled.

Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow, saying, "What are you talking about? Yuyan’s still just a kid."

Ding Yan snorted: "Did I say Lu Yuyan? Couldn’t I have meant Dong Yan?"

Liang Yuan was speechless and said, "Yanyan is already eighteen."

"Oh, you remember that quite clearly? So what’s better, eighteen or sixteen?"

"Haha, I think women in their twenties or more, like our lady professor, are better."

Saying that, he stepped forward and hugged Ding Yan, who was acting like a jealous wife.

Ding Yan rolled her eyes at him, "Don’t be silly; don’t think I don’t know what you men are thinking."

"You’re thinking: ’Lolis have three good qualities—they’re light, soft, and easy to knock over,’ right?" Ding Yan said with a teasing smile.

Liang Yuan laughed helplessly: "You sure know a lot."

"Let me tell you, I’m out here on a mission." Ding Yan huffed.

Liang Yuan was surprised: "What kind of mission?"

"The sisters instructed me to keep an eye on you, to make sure that by accident, we don’t add any more mouths to our family."

Liang Yuan burst into laughter: "You all really don’t trust me, do you?"

"Hehe." Ding Yan shot him an eye-roll, letting him ponder it himself.

Liang Yuan shook his head and said, "Relax, I never actively pursue women."

Ding Yan was speechless; she thought, while it’s true you don’t pursue women, do you realize how many are drawn to you because of your status?

But she didn’t say this; it’s normal for a man to attract women if he was too outstanding.

Can you blame a man for being too excellent?

Besides, in current times, with someone as powerful as Liang Yuan, what’s the harm in having a few more women?

As long as he doesn’t bring them home, everything’s negotiable.

Ding Yan didn’t want to continue this topic; she didn’t want to leave a negative impression on Liang Yuan.

Some words should just be enough.

At this point, she changed the subject: "Professor Li’s Electromagnetic Wave Emission Rune has been redrawn, this time on the sea shell you gave him."

"Also, he met with Ren Jie and Fu Qibo, they had a great conversation, and they all have some whimsical ideas on this Electromagnetic Wave Emission Rune. They’d like to invite you to chat."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan said immediately: "Alright, I’ll head over now."

The two of them quickly went to the Firebird ship’s cabin.

This was the dining area, temporarily set up as a research workspace for Ren Jie, Fu Qibo, and Li Hanzhong to discuss Rune Technology and share their research insights.

Inside the research area, there were numerous Mutant Beast bones and various Superpower Stones neatly arranged.

The walls were also adorned with many weapon-making tools, including a polisher, engraving knife, pliers, hammers, etc.

As Liang Yuan arrived, he heard heated debates among Ren Jie, Fu Qibo, and Li Hanzhong.

"Of course brainwaves are considered electromagnetic waves, why wouldn’t bioelectricity be considered electromagnetic waves?"

"Brainwaves are too weak, how can they be considered electromagnetic waves? I think the reason the electromagnetic emission rune affects a creature’s spirit is because it influences the Spirit Body."

"Well, then what is the Spirit Body? How is Spiritual Energy produced?"

"Where am I supposed to find that out? If I knew, I’d have won a Nobel Prize already."

"Oh, come on, Nobel Prize? The only thing outside now that can give you a reward is the monsters in the Great Flood."

"Let’s stay on topic, folks, we are currently researching how to use this electromagnetic emission rune to make weapons that affect Spiritual Power," Li Hanzhong’s voice broke their debate.

"The power of this Electromagnetic Wave Emission Rune is too small, it can only interfere with the mental consciousness of creatures like Mutant Fish. I suspect it’s a bit difficult to create a weapon targeting Spiritual Power," Fu Qibo couldn’t help but say.

Ren Jie, upon hearing this, immediately asked: "Is there a way to increase the power of this Electromagnetic Emission Rune?"

Fu Qibo clapped his hands: "Can quantity affect quality?"

Ren Jie instantly brightened up: "Right, if one doesn’t work, what about ten, a hundred, or even a thousand of these Electromagnetic Emission Runes working together? Wouldn’t that form a powerful electromagnetic wave disruptor to affect a Superpower User’s Spiritual Power?"

Li Hanzhong also showed a delighted expression: "That indeed is a direction; quantity changing leads to quality changing—it’s not impossible!"

"The radar used on our ship doesn’t rely on a single microwave emission method but is completed by numerous emission components and even requires rectifiers and amplifiers for amplification processing."

Standing outside the door, Liang Yuan and Ding Yan exchanged glances and couldn’t help but laugh.

Ding Yan whispered: "I feel like I’m back in a school’s research discussion group; these three together really make a good research team."

Liang Yuan also laughed: "It looks like it’s time to form our Yangshan Rune Technology Development Team."

"Let’s go, and check their progress."

Liang Yuan knocked on the door and walked in with Ding Yan.

The three inside stopped their discussion and, seeing it was Liang Yuan, quickly stood up.

"Mr. Liang is here!"

"Hello, Mr. Liang."

"Mr. Liang, you’re here, please have a seat."

All three greeted him, and Ren Jie pulled out a chair for Liang Yuan.

He became the leader of a building not just by relying on his research capabilities; obviously, his mind is also nimble.

Liang Yuan smiled and said: "No need for politeness, since everyone’s joined our Yangshan Shelter, we’re all family, sit and let’s talk."

With smiles on their faces, Li Hanzhong said: "Mr. Liang, please look at this sea shell, I replicated it overnight."

"I’ve particularly carved two Electromagnetic Emission Runes on this, and after hearing Xiaoren and Xiaofu say that drawing runes with Superpower Stone powder yields better results, I took the liberty of borrowing your Superpower Stone powder—hope you don’t mind."

Liang Yuan laughed: "Professor Li, no need to say such things, this place is originally for rune research, you can freely use all the materials here."

With that, he took the seashell.

Indeed, the shell was engraved with runes in two colors.

Though the colors differed, the rune shapes were identical—they were all Electromagnetic Wave Emission Runes.

Liang Yuan asked: "Have you tried it?"

Li Hanzhong shook his head: "I haven’t had a chance to test it yet; mainly because I’m uncertain what special effects might arise from adding Superpower Stone powder. I’m afraid it might cause damage here and it wouldn’t be good to wreck the ship."

Liang Yuan thought for a moment upon hearing this and casually took out a Spirit Turtle Shield Talisman Stone.

He then placed the Spirit Turtle Shield Talisman Stone on the table, activating it, and immediately a transparent Spirit Turtle Shell Shield arose.

Seeing this, the three present widened their eyes.

Fu Qibo promptly asked: "This, what is this?"

Ren Jie guessed promptly: "Spiritual Power Defense-type Rune Bone?"

"No, wrong, Rune Bones need a Superpower User to trigger them; this thing operates on its own, away from the Superpower User?"

Fu Qibo immediately said: "It’s the Superpower Stone—the rune is engraved on the Superpower Stone, using it to replace the Superpower User as an energy device, allowing the rune to operate independently!"

Li Hanzhong couldn’t help but exclaim: "It can work like this?"

Liang Yuan smiled and said: "Yes, this is our Yangshan’s Rune Stone technology, utilizing the unique properties of the Superpower Stones to directly engrave runes on them, creating Rune Stones."

"In this way, even a regular person can activate Rune Stones and temporarily acquire skills usually only Superpower Users can perform."

Upon hearing this, the three looked shocked.

The Yangshan Shelter secretly had its own research technology!

Li Hanzhong immediately realized, such a shelter must have grown to a certain scale!

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have spare time to research things like Rune Stones!

Then he immediately became conscious of a fact: the Rune Stones’ main medium is the Superpower Stones!

At Lishui Garden, Superpower Stones were amazingly scarce and were only obtained by digging them from shells and such.

"Do you have lots of Superpower Stones?"

Li Hanzhong couldn’t help but ask.

Liang Yuan smiled and said: "Not a lot, we just have a Superpower Stone Mine."

"What!" Li Hanzhong’s eyes instantly widened!

"Wow!" Fu Qibo cut the swearing loose.

Ren Jie’s breathing quickened abruptly: "Superpower Stone Mine?"
