Deep in the Living

Chapter 711 Visiting Plan
This <Unknown Relic> has only been fed twice since its creation. The first time was by the Exploration Bureau, when it ate a very ordinary, inhuman, and irrational rat monster.

There was no communication at the time; we just ate it and felt quite unsatisfied.

The second time is now, and what they've eaten is a stitched monster that can effectively target the Jiang family and came with Mr. Rose.

While being satisfied with the relics themselves, they even took the initiative to share information about the monster.

This led Roddy to boldly speculate that the relics themselves might possess some kind of consciousness.

Because they came across something delicious, they proactively provided information so that their master, Roddy, could search for similar food.

However, this intelligence is rather abstract.
It is neither actual text information nor an image.

These mists, which actively rushed into Luo Di's nasal cavity, followed the optic nerve to the eyeball, directly staging a shadow play on the retina.

The mist formed a tiny figure, which was taken inside a building. Various surgical instruments were used in turn to enlarge its originally ordinary body several times over through stuffing, stretching, reconstructing, and suturing.

Furthermore, there is a very strange process that seems to require the use of a syringe-like device to extract some substance from the little figure and then re-inject another processed substance.

To ensure a high success rate, special metal modifications to the body are also required.

Although the performance of The Mist was abstract, Roddy roughly figured out the key points.

"This human body expo possesses a special human transmutation technique that can directly increase the strength of ordinary monsters several times over, and also allow them to specialize in a certain ability."

These stitched monsters brought by Mr. Rose were clearly designed specifically for the Jiang family. Not only were they no less physically strong than zombies, but they could also absorb yin energy through their special metallic properties.

It seems that Mr. Rose had his eye on the Jiang family for a long time and had been making preparations all along.

This attack was not a real offensive, but rather an attempt.

Mr. Rose wanted to test the effectiveness of the concoction against zombies. His arrival was more for observation than actual combat.

Observe the effects of the stitched monster on the enemy, observe the current general state of the Jiang family, and determine the most suitable time to attack.

Moreover, they probably took away quite a few of the killed zombies, which they will use to further optimize the system.

Once everything is ready, they should really attack. Even if Master Jiang doesn't go looking for them, they will come looking for him directly.

The lady nodded in affirmation, "Yes... my maid was almost powerless against such a thing. The other party must have started making plans after learning that the master's body had been destroyed."

If what you say is true, then the Jiang family is truly doomed.

Roddy, however, had a peculiar idea, and a certain desire within him was driving the rapid implementation of this idea.

"No rush, this relic of mine seems to really like the style of stitching together monsters... I have an idea! Shouldn't a human body expo be open to the public?"

"Yes."

"Would you be willing to accompany me, Madam?"

"what?"

……

The next morning.

Luo Di did not stay overnight in his wife's boudoir, as it would not be appropriate no matter what. In the middle of the night, he made an excuse to return to his room.

The coffin lid was pushed open.

When his head emerged from the soil and he breathed in the yin energy of the outside world, Luo Di felt a strange sense of comfort.

It seemed much more comfortable than when he used to sleep on a soft mattress and breathe fresh air.

This time when I woke up, Uncle Neck's face didn't appear, but his presence was already there, standing in the front yard. He didn't crane his neck, but waited quietly, seemingly holding something in his hands.

"Uncle Neck".

"Roddy, you're finally awake. This is roast duck rice made according to human customs. After you've eaten, come with me to see the master."

Uncle Bo forced a smile onto his face, and unlike before, he now regarded Roddy as an honored guest.

"good to eat."

Roddy was surprised to find such authentic food here. While he was eating, another person also arrived.

Uncle Bo was also slightly startled and quickly lowered his head, "Madam, what brings you here?"

"I'll go with you to see the master later." Today, Madam Linglong was wearing a pair of carved red cloth shoes. Underneath the red cloth, her eyes were fixed on Luo Di in the side room, as if she had made up her mind.

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed.
Central Residence

Uncle Bo, Luo Di, and Madam Linglong were all present.

There were no longer any curtains in front of them, and the master sat on the golden toad chair as if he had just been given a new body.

Four maids are currently standing around, applying the boiled Chinese medicine to the body and then securing it with bandages.

"Rodi, a special human, a member of Vortex Town... I heard from the lady that your purpose in coming here is to repair a weapon with a damaged soul."

Even though you weren't implicated, you were willing to help during the attack on the Jiang residence and save the lady's life.

In recognition of your timely assistance, we will forgive your past infiltration. We will also assist you in repairing your weapons; all materials will be provided by our household, and the lady will personally oversee the repairs.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Ahem... If it were the Human Body Expo in the past, I would have gone to great lengths to eradicate it from the corner."

"But my current condition is very bad; I haven't been able to find a suitable physical body."

The voice just fell,

The old man, who had been sitting on the golden toad and wrapping bandages around his shoulders, suddenly came to Luo Di and stretched out his pus-filled hand toward his shoulder.

Just then, Roddy suddenly spoke up: "Master, I'm willing to help you infiltrate the Human Expo and bring back as much intelligence as possible. Including important information about their ongoing human transmutation and zombie control."

"Human transmutation—who told you that?"

"Before I rescued the lady yesterday, I also killed a stitched monster on the way. Through my own biological analysis skills, I learned about its creation process."

The old man's hand paused for a moment, then slowly moved behind his back.

"...Will the organization behind you help you?"

"To be honest, sir, I came out on my own this time."

Whirlpool Town is undergoing educational reforms and formulating its extraterritorial strategy, and because of its absolute neutrality, it will not interfere with any local organizations.

I'm just an ordinary student, and I can't make that decision at all. However, I have a good relationship with Professor Gustave, and he's willing to offer some external assistance.

"Gustav? That tongue?"

"Yes... Gustav can provide very effective concealment and makeup. I was able to infiltrate the Jiang residence this time thanks to this kind of makeup."

I suppose I should be able to use a similar method to disguise myself as an ordinary visitor and go to the human body exhibition.

In addition, the lady can provide wax makeup, which greatly improves the makeup effect and makes the infiltration operation smoother.

I plan to go with my wife to bring back important intelligence for the Jiang family.

"lady?"

Linglong immediately responded, "Sir, my wax makeup, combined with Mr. Gustav's scent removal and alteration techniques, should be able to achieve a perfect disguise."

If they could truly blend in completely, they might be able to secretly smuggle the "corpse" inside.

"Hmm... let me think about it."

The old man subconsciously touched his beard, but his new body had no beard at all.

His dark, piercing eyes swept over Roddy and his wife, sensing that something was amiss.

"It's a good thing that you're willing to contribute to the Jiang family. If this matter succeeds and helps me conquer the Expo, I will not only share the Expo's legacy with you, but I can also give you a luminous pearl from the manor."

However, penetrating the Expo is not so easy.

Your infiltration will be extremely dangerous if discovered. Here's what we'll do! Uncle Neck will also join you and go with you.

"Master! If I go there, there will be no one to manage the manor... What if we run into trouble!"

“I’m not dead yet… If that guy comes looking for me in person, wouldn’t that be a good thing? He can take good care of my wife and this very thoughtful young man.”

"Yes sir."
