This puppeteer is a bit... well...

Chapter 129, Chapter 128: Progress is Unstoppable

As the peak of his desire subsided, Wanlijiang collapsed onto the platform.

Her face was flushed. Her eyes were unfocused as she gazed at the pensive boy, and with heavy breathing, the pink mist gradually thinned.

"Yes, did you gain anything?"

After resting for a while and catching his breath, Wanlijiang asked.

Long Er paused for a moment, then replied, "I guess so. At least we understand the process of poison formation and the functioning of the tumor..."

As he spoke, he subconsciously turned his head around, then stopped.

The girl who just came down from the mountaintop is so alluring.

The climb up the mountain had left the girl's clothes somewhat disheveled.

The girl had a fantastic figure and wore a sexy, alluring low-cut mesh ninja outfit. Therefore, even though it was only slightly disheveled, it dispelled the heavy fog, revealing a partially concealed view.

Her skin was rosy and smooth, so delicate it seemed like it could be broken with a touch; her eyes were dreamy and alluring—and the magnetic hormones that filled the room as she had just come down from the mountain peak… all of this instantly filled Xiaolong Er with respect.

If the isolation suits hadn't been made of excellent materials, they probably would have burst.

(Calm down, calm down, calm down...)

Ryuji wanted to rub his temples to calm himself down, but he couldn't do that while wearing protective clothing, so he could only turn away and not look.

Wanlijiang also noticed something was wrong and quickly covered the view in front of the car, his rosy cheeks turning even redder.

Her feelings were somewhat complicated at that moment.

She felt both annoyed that the man had taken advantage of her and secretly pleased that he had reacted so strongly to her.

After all, this is a man who doesn't react even when he's up close or touching a beautiful woman's body.

If you can elicit a response from someone, doesn't that mean you possess unparalleled charm?

She completely forgot about her naturally alluring body.

……

After a moment, Ryuji calmed down.

Although Xiaolong Er still held the flag high, his mind was very clear, and he was able to avoid being consumed by desire.

He let out a deep sigh of relief and asked, "Are you dressed?"

"Yes, right away."

Hearing the man's words, Wanlijiang snapped out of her inner turmoil, quickly straightened her clothes, and then stuffed the kunai with the liquid-soaked handle into her ninja tool pouch.

"alright."

"Okay, let's talk outside!"

Ryuji opened the portal and left without looking back.

Wan Lijiang was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed him out.

Wherever the door to the portable space opens, you will appear there when you emerge.

So the two returned to the edge of the floating continent.

Ryuji didn't rush to close the door, but instead let the highly toxic pink mist drift out.

He then took off his protective suit himself in a sheltered spot, continuing his previous question as he did so: "The cause and mechanism of the poisoning have been basically figured out, but according to you, the tumor not only reacts differently depending on the degree of desire, but also reacts differently depending on different situations—"

At this point, he turned to look at the girl whose face still bore a blush and continued, "Your Yangyan clan has been researching solutions for hundreds of years, so there should be records of that, right? Could you show me those records?"

"The records on this matter are all in the secluded clan territory. Shall I go back and retrieve them?"

"How long does it take to go there and back?"

"About half a month!"

"Never mind then." Ryuji threw the protective suit he had taken off into his personal space and continued, "This much time is enough for me to experiment and find a solution."

"Can a solution really be found?"

Wanlijiang couldn't believe it.

The root of the problem, the "sarcoma," cannot be directly eradicated, otherwise the host will die quickly. Their clan has tried all methods, but they have been unable to suppress the sarcoma's operation. This man is confident that he can find a solution to such a difficult problem after just one examination.

"It's not a question of whether or not a solution can be found, but rather that I have already found one."

"real?"

"Really." Long Er nodded and said, "If it weren't for the lack of all the data on the tumor's function, and the concern about unexpected complications during treatment, I could solve the problem for you right now."

"I, I..."

Wanlijiang was so happy that he was almost incoherent. In the end, he knelt down and prostrated himself before Long Er, saying, "Thank you, thank you, thank you. I don't know how to repay your great kindness. I can only dedicate the rest of my life to serving you."

Ryuji readily accepted.

The reason he helped Wanlijiang was not only to avoid researching Eagle Eye, but also to gain the loyalty of the Yangyan clan.

If Sunagakure wants to grow stronger, it must develop in all aspects.

Suitable land for living, advanced education and medical systems, a large population and elite talent.

Elite ninjas can generally be trained by commoners, but some ninjas with bloodline limits and special abilities can only rely on ninja clans.

The Yangyan clan is just the first; they will search for more ninja clans later.

Although the ninja world has long entered the era of ninja villages, there are still many ninja clans that do not join villages but exist as clans.

The Wind Demon Clan, the Amber Clan, the Cloud Smoke Clan, the Bamboo Clan...

As long as Sunagakure can demonstrate sufficient appeal and meet the needs of the other party, there will be no shortage of ninja clans joining.

Of course, Sunagakure is a brother village.

The village does not allow the existence of a single clan, so all ninja clans that join will have their surnames and clan crests removed.

Under normal circumstances, no ninja clan would agree to such conditions.

But if handled properly, they will agree.

For example, the current Kagerou clan.

Of course, he wouldn't accept just any ninja clan. They would have to possess a considerable level of strength.

The Kagero clan doesn't seem qualified right now, but if things are really as Ryuji guessed, then the Kagero clan is probably a very formidable ninja clan that would greatly enhance the entire Sunagakure.

……

Time continued to pass.

Ryuji resumed his previous days of researching and assembling machine parts.

However, the research shifted from studying eagle eyes to studying the Wanli River.

The research process was complex, lengthy, and extremely painful.

There's nothing that can be done; Wanlijiang is naturally alluring, and her seduction of men is simply unimaginable to ordinary people.

To experiment with how sarcomas respond to different situations, it is necessary to send Wanlijiang to the summit in various ways.

Even without the final step, the various tricks they employ are enough to make a ninja lose control of their willpower.

If Ryuji hadn't dissected so many corpses that he'd become indifferent to this kind of thing, he probably would have been poisoned to death during the experiment long ago.

October 13th.

The first thruster for the planetary engine has been manufactured.

To support flight over a 5,000-square-kilometer continent, at least 3,000 such propulsion units would need to be built, with one unit installed every two square kilometers.

Including backup units in case of emergencies, we would need to build approximately five thousand units.

but.

With the experience gained from building the first one, the subsequent construction speed was much faster.

Three more were built in the following three days, the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth.

With accumulated experience, the construction speed has become faster and faster.

October seventeenth.

Wan Lijiang said he felt a little weak and needed to rest.

Long Er had no choice but to turn his attention to the study of immortal bodies.

Regarding the characteristic that white blood cells absorb too much life force and then turn into large trees, the observation instrument has provided a preliminary solution.

That is, first, ordinary cells are fused with white asteroid cells, and little by little, they absorb life and become the characteristics of plants.

However, the specific data has not yet been calculated.

While studying Wanlijiang's unique physique, Long Er gained inspiration for a solution to this problem.

That is to use poison to inhibit the vegetativeization of white blood cells.

That's how his seed cells were made.

However, the seed cells use poison to suppress the vitality of the cactus cells, thereby preventing the growth of the white zeolite cells.

But the strength of the immortal body lies in its powerful vitality. If we suppress its vitality with poison like we do with seed cells, what is the point of creating an immortal body?

Therefore, this poison inhibits phytomorphism rather than vitality.

There is no such thing as strong or weak poison.

The effectiveness depends entirely on whether the poisoned person has the relevant antibodies.

Different toxins can produce different effects on different antibodies.

If a poison that only damages plant cells but is harmless or even beneficial to humans could be produced, the problem of white zeolite cell phytochemicals could be solved.

Once you have an inspiration, put it into practice immediately.

Otherwise, over time, the inspiration will quietly slip away.

Ryuji first tried using the poison of the salamander (Hanzo's summoned beast corpse was taken by the protagonist).

The results showed that this was a poison that only affected living organisms and not plants, which was the complete opposite of what Ryuji needed.

Next, he went to ask all the puppeteers in the city, but he couldn't find any poison that met his requirements.

Finally, he turned his attention to Wanlijiang.

If different types of toxins are produced depending on the degree and cause of the host's desire, then surely it is also possible to produce toxins that are only effective on plants and ineffective on humans!

After inquiring and learning that the Kagero clan had indeed produced a poison in their history that could instantly wither the surrounding forests but cause no harm to humans, Ryuji decided to increase the scale of his experiments.

October 18th.

After a day of rest, Wan Lijiang returned to the laboratory to assist Long Er with the experiment.

To ensure he obtained detailed data, he specifically reviewed his backup memories from his previous life, dug out all the learning videos of the Japanese teachers who had been relegated to the corner, and then tested them one by one on Wanlijiang.

Of course, the final step was not performed.

Even after long-term experiments, when the girl had completely lost all sense of shame towards the boy and would not refuse him, and even wanted to have some kind of relationship with him, he still couldn't solve the problem of the deadly poison.

Unless Ryuji is willing to throw this body away.

But it was, after all, the original body. Although it lacked talent and was weak, it was still his original body in this world.

October 19th.

The material specific gravity system is complete.

With the addition of the ability to adjust the density and weight of matter on the continent, the mechanical city no longer needs to worry about being blown away by super strong winds when it encounters a floating situation. Furthermore, it can even use this system to escape Earth's gravity and fly into space.

Of course, without planetary engines, the Mechanical City cannot freely choose its flight direction, nor does it have the ability to travel in space.

If it were to actually fly into space, it would only be able to float in the universe like any other dust particle.

Moreover, everyone who lives up there will die.
