Jonathan's heart was jumping violently, while cold sweat filled his forehead. In this military area, he had always been regarded as a high-profile figure, but Jiang Liushi took his honor away from him. As Jiang Liushi was staring at him, Jonathan could no longer remain calm.
"Shall we talk business now?" asked Jiang Liushi.
"Of course…we can…" replied Jonathan with a bitter expression.
Although their battle ended quickly, Jonathan's prestige suffered greatly. He could feel that the previously adoring and fanatical gazes had been extinguished. Jonathan really wanted to call the soldiers stationed outside, but his strong intuition told him that once the situation got out of control, he would suffer even more.
Jonathan sent his people to bring the mutant nuclei. After some time, they returned and handed them to Jiang Liushi. The latter was exhilarated as Jonathan really possessed a lot of level-2 mutant nuclei. Moreover, one of them was close to level-3. The well-equipped military was indeed capable.
"Here, take these. They're your evolution crystals. I'm an honest businessman," said Jiang Liushi. He first counted the evolution crystals in front of Jonathan, stored them in a bag, which then he handed at him.
Jonathan opened the bag, and after discovering that the crystals were of high purity, he felt a little more comfortable. However, he was still dejected. Jiang Liushi had just forced him to agree to his terms, so how could he call himself an honest businessman?
Naturally, Jiang Liushi was uninterested in what Jonathan may be thinking about him. After all, he had used the soft approach before resorting to force. His abilities may be superior, but he couldn't resolve all problems with rude and unreasonable means. Since they had obtained the level-2 mutant nuclei, it was meaningless for the Shi Ying Squad to stay. Therefore, Jiang Liushi led his teammates outside.
Everyone automatically stepped back, opening a path for them. They were now looking at the Shi Ying Squad's members reverently now. A few Japanese girls felt shy as Jiang Liushi was walking past them. All of a sudden, Xiang Xuehai held Jiang Liushi's arm tightly and excitedly.
Abbott didn't walk out to bid them farewell. He just stood in the crowd, looking at Ran Xiyu and her teammates in a daze. When he helped them, Abbott was a little proud. However, facts spoke louder than words. Jiang Liushi defeated Jonathan, dealing a heavy blow on the latter's pride.
'Thank you, Abbott. See you!' transmitted Ran Xiyu to Abbott's mind. Abbot was utterly shocked. At the same time, Ran Xiyu, following Jiang Liushi, walked out the main gate. At this moment, all sorts of feelings welled up in Abbott's heart. He was afraid that he would never see Ran Xiyu again in the future.
As soon as Jiang Liushi and his teammates walked out, Jonathan's expressions changed, and he called one of his teammates. However, just at that moment, a shrill engine sound came from outside. Jonathan ran to the window and saw a tour bus out of the main gate. That tour bus sped up, turned to a corner, and then it dashed to the wilderness. It disappeared into the wilderness like a bolt of lightning. Jonathan's eyes jumped. In his mind, a tour bus could reach such astonishing speed. Evidently, the Shi Ying Squad was way more powerful than what they showed earlier. Jonathan was now convinced that were he to face them, he would definitely be the loser. It was impossible for him to hurt Jiang Liushi and his teammates.
…
"Wonderful! We obtained so many level-2 mutant nuclei. I really wonder what will happen after absorbing their energy," said Jiang Liushi in satisfaction.
After leaving the military base and driving into the wilderness for some time, Ying drove the bus back to the main road. They weren't afraid of mutant beasts, but they still had to be careful. Ran Xiyu was scanning their surrounding non-stop, while Ying kept driving. As for Jiang Liushi, he was in his bedroom, lying on the bed, with a few level-2 mutant nuclei in his hands.
Soon, volatile energy coursed through Jiang Liuhsi's body, which in turn made him feel as if his body was going to explode. Fortunately, his body absorbed the rampant energy effortlessly, and new waves of energy invaded him. Jiang Liushi's case was similar to being thrown to the sea; thus he had no chance to rest. As such, Jiang Liushi fell quiet, only his chest was moving up and down
"Is Brother Jiang okay?" asked Xiang Xuehai.
Li Yuxin was observing Jiang Liushi carefully, scanning his body's condition ceaselessly.
"Don't worry. He is trying to control and absorb the potent energy in his body. That why Brother Jiang is in the same state as last time," explained Li Yuxin with a red face. Every time the last time was mentioned, Li Yuxin felt a little bit embarrassed. Even Ran Xiyu's face became hot. The three girls kept staring at Jiang Liushi, so the atmosphere in the room became a little bit strange.
"Well, will we help Brother Jiang take a bath together?" Finally, Xiang Xuehai asked, breaking the terrible silence.
"Uh, right!" Li Yuxin nodded.
"Uh..." Ran Xiyu's voice was just like a fine breeze.
After making a consensus, the three girls once again looked toward Jiang Liushi with a hint of surprise. This time, Jiang Liushi didn't completely fall into a deep sleep. He could feel and control the potent energy he was absorbing. At the same time, the cluster of blue light was increasing in size quickly as if it had eaten lots of food.
One after another, the mutant nuclei in Jiang Liushi's hands disappeared. Gradually, Jiang Liushi's body was covered by a faint blue hue. Although Jiang Liushi did not wake up, his energy still astounded the three girls. Undoubtedly, no other species possessed such a unique and fast way to achieve evolution!
