Chapter 38 Void Element
Although so many things had happened, after recuperating in the Boundless Land for a while, Lonis felt that her physical condition had improved significantly.
At least her body weight had returned to normal, and drinking Tranquil Fruit every day had no other side effects.
On the other hand, her companions were not idle.
Although the Boundless Land now had many trees, there were still many desolate areas where nothing grew. Terrifying monsters still lurked in this space.
Therefore, for safety reasons, some scientific research and soil collection work could only be left to the girls.
…”Going to explore the Western Mine? No problem, leave it to me.”
…
These days, Senior Zhisheng Luo and the others were undertaking such work. The scientific data obtained from it would be sent to the Research Center immediately and shared with the Land of Eternity and C. Academy.
In fact, the soil composition of the Boundless Land had always been a mystery. People didn’t know why nothing grew here, but now, after joint investigations by multiple parties, a scientific achievement had been confirmed.
The Boundless Soil contained a peculiar substance.
This substance was different from known ordinary substances because it was not composed of atoms and electrons, and its mass was extremely light. Therefore, it was very difficult to observe and had no commonality with many substances in this world.
However, it undoubtedly existed widely on the land of the Boundless Land, and it was precisely because of the existence of this substance that most creatures could not survive here.
Because its function was to isolate substances.
To put it another way, if iron was boiled at high temperature to turn it into molten iron and then this substance was added… even the steel-making method could not form a block of iron, but rather a powdery substance like iron powder.
However, it is worth mentioning that although this substance could affect elements, it did not affect higher life forms with blue cells. The more complex the organism, the more adaptable it was to this substance.
Even if ingested into the body, it would be naturally excreted—this was why consuming the fruit of the Tree of Origin Collapse back then could purify the body’s impurities.
…
For the time being, Dr. O’Kali named this substance “Void Element”.
Although progress was a good thing, people’s exploration of the “Void Element” was currently only at the most basic level.
…
Dr. O’Kali found everyone and asked:
“Ladies, are you going to Kingdom Ming next?”
“Yes, because according to the loli god, we are now going to investigate the past.”
“Okay, I remember that the Royal Capital Insoraia also has a Tree of Origin, so could you please also look for some soil there? If possible, I would also like to delve deeper into the Demon Race to investigate the traces of the soil there.”
“Of course, this matter is very important? We will definitely not shirk our responsibility.”
…
In fact, Lonis had a guess.
She felt that this substance called “Void Element” seemed to be related to ancient battlefields.
Did the Supreme Civilization at that time use something called a “Homogenizer” to purify the entire Earth?
Then perhaps this Void Element was the key to countering the Homogenizer?
…
…
However, all this was just speculation, and without sufficient data support, it was meaningless.
So after finishing the work in the Boundless Land, the girls returned to the ship and prepared to officially depart.
…
…
“Bai Ye, are you ready? We’re setting sail.”
“Yes, everything is ready.”
Because Bai Ye was a robot, she didn’t have many things to carry with her.
She only needed to get some charging interfaces when she returned home this time—because Bai Ye now was like a hybrid car, and she could replenish energy by charging or eating.
However, just as the ship they were piloting was about to leave…
“Wait a moment!”
“So heavy.”
Lonis and Bai Ye were stunned because many sprites flew out from the woods!
Moreover, they were all dragging a sack together—the sack looked heavy, almost preventing the sprites from flying.
“Ah, it’s the sprites…”
“Teacher Lonis, Teacher Bai Ye! Please accept this before you leave.”
…
Although the sprites were presenting gifts with good intentions, Lonis was dumbfounded when she saw the contents of the sack.
Because it was densely packed with…
Dozens of Tranquil Fruits!
One Tranquil Fruit was enough for a meal, so how long would she take to eat so many?
Lonis felt a chill down her spine, but Elus had already accepted it:
“Mhm, thank you, little sprites. This gift is very important, and we will accept it~”
“You’re welcome, because you are right. The fruits of the trees are not of much use to ourselves, so we hope that all fruits will be put to good use.”
“Well, as a return gift, I will give everyone the extra Little Star Fish and Slime exclusive feed.”
“Feed…”
“Yes, it was also carefully prepared by Su Ling. You can try it as a snack, okay?”
…
…
Thus, after bidding farewell to the sprites, the Time Shuttle set sail again.
Although the trip to the Boundless Land this time was very successful, almost solving all the problems encountered so far.
However…
Alice and Siria had not yet returned.
They had contacted Elus and said that they were currently doing something special, so they would be delayed for a while and asked everyone to depart for Kingdom Ming as planned.
Although they didn’t know what those two little lolis were secretly doing.
But as Lonis had decided before, worrying about such things was useless; it was better to live decisively.
In other words, even if Lonis only had 7 days left to live. Wouldn’t she still want to be happy in those last 7 days?
Of course, she would be happy.
Because when you die has nothing to do with you… death is the destination of life, but it is not a shackle that restricts life from moving forward.
…
So, in the past few days, Lonis had been playing board games with everyone on the ship and living happily.
…
“Haha, I’m first in this board game! If you guys don’t work harder, I, a hero, will become king!”
Lonis still remembered playing games with everyone at C. Academy back then, but at that time, she was always at the bottom and was bullied.
And now, she had even grasped the situation and her points even surpassed Elus~
“Hmph, Little idiot is only showing off now, wait until I prepare my trump card… Wait, Senior Zhou Mi Xue, what are you doing!”
“Hehe, Elus, I’m sorry~~ Because I don’t want to be at the bottom, I can only sell out my teammates here.”
“Damn it, why are you all targeting me? If this continues, won’t I become the last one? No, I absolutely refuse!”
“Hmph, Elus, take this. After I become king this time, I will order you to be a maid and serve me? Hehe, Elus, my little cute girl, just wait obediently to wear white stockings and call me Master…”
“?”
“Huh? Why can’t I see? Wow, Elus, you cheated! Wuwu, bullying!”
Lonis’s vision went black, and the victory she had finally obtained slipped away like this~
