Norton's memories didn't contain any trace of this. If a normal human genius could actually get to this point, that would be truly bizarre.
"Hmm...it looks like a groundbreaking project, but unfortunately it's stuck in a dead end."
Xia Mi immediately began to think about how to get involved in this experiment.
Even after a proper intrusion, and even if the experiment is successfully conducted under his control, Lu Mingfei still has to choose her as the experimental subject to receive Constantine's power... It has to be her, she's so loyal, Boss Lu!
While Xia Mi racked her brains trying to get a share of the pie, the system was also analyzing how to handle the situation.
It wanted to use "Word of Power: Judgment" to explore those unknown higher powers and conduct experiments through those higher powers... but these higher powers required royal authority to make them obedient... This directly led to a vicious cycle from which it could not escape.
Xia Mi, looking mischievous and full of curiosity, stayed in the lab with Lao Tang to figure out how to pave this brand-new path to godhood.
Seeing that nothing was wrong, the system went back.
That evening, after working overtime all day, Lao Tang couldn't stay awake any longer and went home to sleep, leaving his lab assistant and Xia Mi in the lab to continue the related tests and research.
Xia Mi felt a surge of excitement as she looked at the finger bone—the Dragon King's Dragon Bone Cross! If she could obtain a complete Dragon Bone Cross, she would gain even greater power…
However, the current situation is how to get Lu Mingfei to obediently take out all the remaining dragon bone crosses...
Hmm... Xia Mi held the finger bone, her eyes gradually calming down. Then she instructed her assistant, "Let's do a bloodline acceptance test first to see how different the dragon blood of the Dragon King is from that of ordinary dragons."
The assistant immediately said, "It's already being done. The mice over there have labels with numbers on them. Mice numbered 1, 2, and 3 received the Dragon King's blood implantation, mice numbered 6, 7, and 8 received ordinary dragon blood implantation, and mice numbered 9, 10, and 11 are the regular dragonification attempts."
"Common knowledge about dragonification will cause mice to undergo physical mutations, turning them directly into Deadpool mice. Even after injecting serum and undergoing surgery, mice with the bloodline will still experience a bloodline rampage when they receive ordinary dragon blood. After implanting an alchemical matrix to suppress it, and then implanting Dragon King blood, it becomes completely uncontrollable. However, the implantation of Dragon King blood can indeed turn mice into the kings among bloodline mice. In addition to having more extreme and powerful strength, they also carry a dragon's might, which shows great suppression over mice that are normally melted and mice that are injected with ordinary dragon blood."
Upon hearing this, Xia Mi glanced at the white mice in the cage and asked, "Are the mice in this cage not perfectly fused with the bloodline for the experiment?"
A perfect fusion of bloodlines refers to a creature that is immune to the Deadpool transformation. Because ordinary creatures would immediately go out of control if their dragon blood content exceeded the standard, they can only be said to carry the bloodline, not to be perfectly compatible with it.
"There are those with perfectly fused bloodlines, but they couldn't withstand the Dragon King's blood and immediately experienced a loss of bloodline control again. After we cultivate new mice, we will conduct experiments to reduce the effects of the Dragon King's blood before re-fusion..."
The assistant was very familiar with the laboratory's experimental procedures, and could answer any question Xia Mi asked immediately.
"Oh." Xia Mi nodded. Since these experiments have already reached this stage, it has saved her a lot of time in doing basic trials.
This is a case of a mediocre person spending a long time researching, just to save a genius an afternoon...
Xia Mi said, "Is it possible that the fusion of bloodlines is not yet perfect? A rat-like dragon does not mean that it has become a true dragon. In this respect, the creature has not yet broken through the limitations of the boundary."
"This is also our main research direction," the assistant nodded slightly and said, "but so far we haven't made any progress or made any progress in this area."
For an ordinary person, paving the way to godhood simply means becoming a humanoid dead servant with normal reason. This state represents the pinnacle of humanity, but it still doesn't truly transform them into a dragon; there remains a vast, real gap between them and a dragon, a gap that is almost insurmountable.
Just as Odin could elevate Chu Tianjiao's bloodline to its limit, to the extreme point below the king level, but still could not grant Chu Tianjiao the authority of a king...
However, Xia Mi's path is different from Odin's. Odin was reluctant to create a dragon because directly bestowing bloodline would be very damaging to a dragon. So Odin's approach was to forcibly elevate Chu Tianjiao's bloodline on the existing basis and modify it.
In essence, Chu Tianjiao's bloodline has not changed; it has only been strengthened.
Now, Xia Mi's task is to create a real dragon... but she still needs to think about how to conserve her energy. Otherwise, if she painstakingly creates a dragon rat only to end up severely weakened, and then obtains Constantine's Dragon Bone Cross merely to make up for the loss, that would be ridiculous...
Xia Mi asked her assistant to bring over paper and pens, and also asked them to bring over some books, and then she asked them to bring over Old Tang's notes...
Staring at the white mouse in the cage, she began to write and draw.
He kept extracting formulas from books and Old Tang's notes, just like the formulas from "The Origin of Alchemy".
Doing it yourself would be too unrealistic, so you have to rely on external forces and not let this matter get involved with you.
Lu Mingfei also has something like this—"The Origins of Alchemy".
Dragons use alchemy to understand the world, just as humans use technology. The only difference is that dragons have a different perspective. Humans have reached the limits of human technology, so theoretically, dragons could also reach their limits through alchemy.
However, this kind of operation only exists in theory. Just like ordinary people trying to understand knowledge that only geniuses can comprehend, they simply cannot understand it...
However, if Xia Mi had the answer, then writing the question based on the answer would be much simpler. She could just write down the question and then come up with the answer, feeling quite pleased with herself...
Xia Mi began to think about how to get Lu Mingfei to choose Constantine's Dragon Bone Cross for her.
Chapter 225 Danger from Xia Mi
Chu Tianjiao lived a very comfortable life.
Although his memory was blank, he still had common sense about life, and he was quite smart. Chu Zihang also gave him plenty of money, so he lived a very comfortable life.
He glanced at the car parked on the side of the road and said, "Son, look at that car, it looks pretty good. Why don't you buy one for your dad? It looks quite impressive."
Chu Zihang glanced at the car and was speechless. It was a Maybach.
"These past two days, several young girls have asked for my contact information. It's obvious they have ulterior motives and are after my body, so I decisively refused them."
Chu Tianjiao's unrestrained nature was gradually unleashed. After a proper makeover, this middle-aged man was indeed very charming, possessing the composure and reliability that young girls admired.
Chu Zihang had something to say about this, but he swallowed it back.
My mom is doing quite well; they probably really can't go back...
"By the way, son, who's your boss? How come he can pay you such a high salary?"
"He's into dragon slaying."
"Slaying dragons is that profitable?"
"Maybe it'll make money?" Chu Zihang thought of the Secret Party and Kassel College, who had always been determined to slay the dragon.
It's unclear whether Kassel College makes money, but the Secret Service should be quite profitable. Even if it doesn't, it can still acquire things that money can't buy.
"What was my life like before?" Chu Tianjiao asked.
"I don't know you. You've been hiding your identity from me all this time." Chu Zihang slowly shook his head.
"Oh." Chu Tianjiao thought it made sense, so he changed the subject: "That girl named Xia Mi, did you sense anything strange about her?"
"What does it feel like?" Chu Zihang asked, puzzled.
Chu Tianjiao slowly said, "A feeling called danger always makes me subconsciously not to get too close to her. I have never had this feeling with anyone I have ever met, but I only feel this sense of danger with her."
Chu Zihang remained silent, as he did not understand why his father felt such a sense of danger towards Xia Mi.
Because Odin had modified Chu Tianjiao's body and bloodline, Chu Tianjiao almost achieved the ultimate leap, transforming into a dragon. However... although he didn't make the ultimate leap, the strength of Chu Tianjiao's body is undeniable.
Chu Tianjiao's strong physical foundation made his sixth sense even more acute... but this sixth sense should only exist in the hostility of a living being towards its target...
After pondering for a while, Chu Zihang suddenly had an incredible thought flash through his mind—the sense of class derived from dragon blood.
In a dragon dynasty where bloodline determines rank, can high-ranking dragons always easily crush low-ranking ones? If Xia Mi's bloodline is higher than Chu Tianjiao's, then Chu Tianjiao might indeed feel threatened by Xia Mi.
That comes from the oppression of those in high positions and the instinctive self-protection of those in lower positions.
However, this thought only existed for a moment. Chu Zihang did not even think deeply about the next possible step, because it was too outrageous. Not only was it untenable, but who would believe it if he told others?
Odin's modifications to Chu Tianjiao are unknown; no one knows what kind of drastic changes Odin added to Chu Tianjiao's bloodline.
……
After working hard for half the night, Xia Mi seemed to have accomplished nothing, so she went back to sleep.
After waking up, Lao Tang returned to his work post and, for a moment, did not notice any problems, continuing his previous research.
It's the weekend, so Xia Mi doesn't have to go to class. After waking up, she spent half the day playing with Panpan at home.
"Da da da."
When the knocking sounded, Panpan immediately ran to open the door, only to see an acquaintance she didn't really want to see—Uesugi Erii.
When Uesugi Erii saw that it was Panpan who opened the door, she squatted down, rubbed the little girl's head, and asked, "Panpan, is Lu Mingfei here?"
"Yes, what's wrong? Is there something you need?"
Lu Mingfei's voice came from the inner room.
Erii asked timidly, "Can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong?"
"Oh, of course not. You can come and sit for a while if you're free." Lu Mingfei realized he had said the wrong thing, walked out and looked at her, saying, "Xia Mi, pour some tea."
Hearing this, Xia Mi rolled her eyes speechlessly. People come to visit, but am I not a guest? Am I just here to serve tea?
"No need, I don't drink tea, I came to play games with you."
At this moment, Panpan took Erii's hand and said, "Eri-neechan, let's play with building blocks together? I just bought some Lego bricks."
She disliked Erii coming to see Lu Mingfei... because she felt that Erii had feelings for Lu Mingfei's brother.
After all, the only people who could come to Lu Mingfei's house besides Xia Mi were those three women with whom he had a close working relationship. However, those three women only came when they had something to do; they wouldn't come to Lu Mingfei's house if they had nothing to do.
Unlike Erii, who, after returning to her home downstairs, would often come to Lu Mingfei to play games when she had nothing to do.
He's bad at the game but loves to play, and he always gets completely outmatched by Lu Mingfei...
“Okay.” Erii didn’t refuse Panpan’s suggestion, but was pulled by her to the sofa to start building with Lego bricks.
"I'm going to check out the lab," Xia Mi said, then turned and left, seemingly unwilling to stay and work for the unscrupulous boss.
Panpan immediately widened her eyes. "No, Sister Xia Mi, what you did was so stupid! Everyone has come to my brother's house to play with him, and instead of staying here, you actually ran out?"
Is this what foolish adults are like?
Panpan racked her brains but couldn't understand why Xia Mi didn't fall in love with Lu Mingfei.
Having spent so much time together, shouldn't we become a couple like they do on TV? Why are we still just friends?
Could it be because neither side dared to speak out? Thinking of this, she narrowed her eyes, recalling the plot of a TV series, and a bold idea sprouted in her mind.
"So cute." Erii saw Panpan's squinting expression and immediately reached out to rub her face.
"That's cute, that's for sure." Lu Mingfei also came over. "How was your trip to Shennongjia with Master Yue?"
Erii and Lu Mingfei have always kept in touch, but mostly through messages, and rarely by phone.
Erii, on the other hand, always sends Lu Mingfei photos and explanations of where she travels to... so Lu Mingfei has always known about Erii's whereabouts.
“The forest is vast, and there are many wild animals in it.” Erii spoke, still somewhat blankly, her tone not very lively.
But after living away from home for a while, she finally developed some of the warmth and humanity of everyday life.
Where is Master Yue?
“Dad didn’t come back with me. He went to the capital and said he was looking for my uncle.”
"Uncle?" Lu Mingfei was taken aback when he heard this.
Whose uncle? Uesugi Kotetsu's or Uesugi Erii's? Uesugi Erii was born in a laboratory, so the source of her egg should be unknown, right?
As for Uesugi Kotetsu, his mother is Chinese... Lu Mingfei immediately understood; it turned out that Uesugi Kotetsu had gone to find his uncle.
