Prodigal System in the Flourishing City-Chapter 1435 - 1437: Speculation

"Whoosh!"

The beam of light pierced through the air and arrived in front of Mr. Wang in the blink of an eye!

Right at the chest!

"Watch out!" Elder Yu roared.

He too felt the danger, the fatal danger!

As he shouted, he dove towards Mr. Wang!

Mr. Wang stood still in place.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to dodge; he simply didn’t have the time.

The speed was too fast!

And his physical fitness left him unable to react!

In the end, he could only muster a bitter smile, ready to face his fate!

My life is over!

"Smack!"

A direct hit!

Right after, Elder Yu tackled Mr. Wang heavily!

"Damn it!"

Lu Xiaobu roared, picked up the giant sword in his hand, and fiercely struck the lion!

The sword fell!

The lion’s head hit the ground!

He never expected a lion could launch such an attack.

When he saw it, there was nothing he could do!

In his anger, he could only choose this way to take revenge!

Initially, he had thought to study it!

But!

"Cough, cough, cough! Elder Yu, get off! You’re crushing me!"

Mr. Wang’s voice came from beneath Elder Yu.

"You’re alright?!" Lu Xiaobu’s eyebrows raised, and he immediately rushed over.

Elder Yu quickly stood up as well.

They looked at Mr. Wang, showing expressions of disbelief!

The light that had threatened their safety had clearly hit Mr. Wang!

However, aside from the place that was hit where his clothes were missing, Mr. Wang was unharmed?!

"How did you do it?!" Elder Yu asked in shock.

"How would I know?" Mr. Wang struggled to get up from the ground.

He didn’t know what’s going on, but he just didn’t die!

He couldn’t possibly die just to prove something, right?

"It’s getting stranger and stranger." Elder Yu murmured while frowning, "Lu Hongbin’s dream was strange, and you can defend against this kind of attack?"

"How many of you went in?" Lu Xiaobu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked.

"Fifteen people! Are you saying these peculiar things happened because we entered the Medicine King Valley, triggering all this?" Elder Yu’s reaction was swift!

"Yes! Remember? You mentioned—the choice!" Lu Xiaobu slowly said, "Perhaps that choice is which door to open!"

"Door?" Mr. Wang was stunned.

"I previously discussed with Lin Feng, and we made a hypothesis: Grandmasters are so powerful because they opened the genetic lock," Lu Xiaobu explained.

Genetic lock?

Elder Yu frowned but did not interrupt Lu Xiaobu.

"I’ll offer an analogy to explain this," Lu Xiaobu nodded.

Then, he shared his analogy involving a cliff, paving a road, and a door.

"Oh, you mean, Grandmasters are Grandmasters because their cultivation paved a road on the cliff, thus opening a door," Mr. Wang understood.

"And Western superpower users jump under some intense pressure, crash through a door, and acquire various abilities."

Elder Yu said with a thoughtful tone, "And now the fifteen of us are like Western superpower users, each opening a door to gain superpowers?!"

"Your brother, Lu Hongbin is like this; Elder Wang too?!"

After sharing his speculation, Elder Yu’s heart started to beat intensely.

If their guess is correct!

Then it means he might also gain superpowers?!

Excitement and thrill started to swell within him!

Superpowers! Who wouldn’t want to have superpowers?!

What kind of superpower will he get?!

At this moment, Mr. Wang was somewhat dazed.

What’s going on?! Why do I feel excited?!

I feel like finding someone to fight!

Mr. Wang thought blankly.

At his age, he actually has this kind of thought?!

What’s going on?

Lu Xiaobu also felt a hint of this feeling but didn’t pay much attention.

"Alright, let’s go back and study this," Lu Xiaobu waved his hand, grabbed the lion on the ground, and started to walk out.

"Indeed, studying here doesn’t make sense," Elder Yu nodded.

A group left the zoo with the body of the mutated lion.

At this moment, Li Qi was standing guard here.

Although situations inside were handed over, he felt obliged to prevent disturbances.

"Officer Li, thank you for your hard work. You’ll need to handle the aftermath," Elder Yu said as he saw Li Qi standing vigilantly.

"Colonel, this is what we should do," Li Qi immediately saluted.

Then his gaze involuntarily moved to the lion, separated from its head, impervious to bullets.

My goodness!

It was actually slashed dead!

So powerful!

Then he glanced at the Knight robot, eyes filled with envy.

He knew it was Lu Xiaobu inside!

Moreover, he knew for sure that it was Lu Xiaobu who killed the lion!

Absolutely incredible, so impressive!

Is this poor people relying on mutation, rich people relying on technology?!

He didn’t find the appearance of the battle armor strange.

He was well aware that the current level of technology in the world was not as it seemed; more technologies that couldn’t be used in civilian applications were hidden, unseen by ordinary people.

For example, he once had the good fortune to witness drones controlled by brainwaves.

Such technology, many might not believe, but it truly exists!

Li Qi watched Elder Yu and Lu Xiaobu leave, then recollected his emotions and began the cleanup.

...

Lu Family.

They did not choose to return directly to the base.

After all, Lu Hongbin wasn’t aware of these matters.

And the research now clearly required Lu Hongbin’s presence.

Lu’s father and others had voluntarily left, giving Lu Xiaobu and his group the space.

"Brother, is it the same as your dream?" Lu Xiaobu asked while rubbing the cup in his hand.

"The same, exactly the same." Lu Hongbin’s eyes reflected the image of the lion, speaking somewhat dazedly.

He was a bit scared!

First, the dumbass talked; now, there’s a lion with horns?!

Why are these things happening?!

Moreover, why does he dream about these?!

His head hurt, and fear washed over him!

What on earth is happening to me?!

"Brother, calm down, it’s alright, I’m here," Lu Xiaobu saw Lu Hongbin’s state and quickly comforted him.

That wasn’t enough, so he directly used five million wasteful amounts for a forced calmness on Lu Hongbin.

Thinking too much can lead to trouble.

Additionally, he casually used forced calmness on himself, hoping he might sort everything out.

However.

After forced calmness, as he looked at the lion, his mouth twitched.

My goodness, is this an upgraded version of forced calmness?!
