To think it actually worked!

This is just too incredible!

Watching the Star Destroyer bombard the Doomsday Beast, March 7th had practically become a little fangirl of Chen Mu.

Stelle was currently hugging her, her face full of joy.

Welt and Dan Heng exchanged glances, smiles appearing on their faces as well.

If someone like Chen Mu were to board the train...

Who could possibly refuse?

"Then, may I ask where Chen Mu is now? We would like to meet him," Himeko asked the researcher before them.

The researcher didn't hide his annoyance as he replied, "Mentor Chen Mu said he still has some research to finish up. If you members of the Train Crew are in a hurry to leave, you can go ahead; he will teleport to the train when he's ready."

To the researchers of the Space Station...

These people from the Train Crew were practically poaching talent right out from under them.

And the person they were poaching was none other than Mentor Chen Mu!

How could they possibly be polite to the Train Crew?

He had no idea what Madame Herta was thinking, actually agreeing to such a request.

If he didn't know for a fact that his intelligence couldn't compare to Madame Herta's, nor to Chen Mu's...

He would be voicing his doubts and protests right now!

The researcher was currently wishing the Train Crew would leave immediately; perhaps if they left, Mentor Chen Mu wouldn't board the train after all.

"I see. That won't be necessary. We didn't plan on leaving just yet anyway. Since that's the case, we'll just wait for Chen Mu."

Welt adjusted his glasses and spoke in a deep, calm voice.

Not to mention that they had originally intended to stay for a while, but for the sake of that young man, waiting a while was undoubtedly worth it.

"Suit yourselves."

The researcher shot a glance at Welt and spoke without a shred of courtesy.

He then turned and left immediately without a word of greeting or a look back.

The members of the Train Crew didn't take the researcher's rudeness to heart.

For one, they understood that it was only natural for the Space Station researchers to be a bit emotional right now.

The second reason was that they were both immersed in their own joy at this moment.

On the other side.

After Chen Mu finished talking with Herta, he returned to his Laboratory.

He had already agreed to Herta's idea of having him board the Stellaron Express.

However, before leaving, he still wanted to completely finish the Longevity Medicine first.

Chen Mu looked at the Longevity Medicine before him, his expression somewhat troubled.

To be honest.

He had basically already done everything he could.

He had reached his limit.

Next.

He would need to conduct Biological Experiments to discover the drawbacks of the Longevity Medicine, so that he could then make improvements.

But.

Not to mention that it was difficult to find subjects for Biological Experiments.

The other point was that the Biological Experiments for the Longevity Medicine were highly unlikely to show any results in the short term.

Instead, it would take a long time to uncover the flaws within.

Take the Mara-struck, for example; that was something you only discovered after living for a thousand years.

The Longevity Medicine Chen Mu created certainly didn't have those obvious, minor issues; what he feared were the hidden dangers that would only erupt after a long period of time.

Regarding this.

Chen Mu was naturally very troubled.

And just at this moment.

Chen Mu suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up.

After opening the Chat Group.

Looking at the Points above, Chen Mu suddenly had an idea.

Immediately after.

"Hahaha, as expected, Points can help me."

Chen Mu laughed out loud, his face filled with joy.

Because he discovered.

He could actually use Points to assist him in his research.

With the help of the Points.

The hidden flaws of the Longevity Medicine.

Were exposed before him without hesitation.

Next.

He just needed to improve and complete it.

The Longevity Medicine would be a complete success.

Action followed thought.

With the help of the Points, Chen Mu immediately began to re-experiment, his face full of excitement.

This was not only because the Longevity Medicine could be completely finished.

Another point was that this function of the Points would definitely have infinite uses in the future, and it would be of huge help to whatever research Chen Mu conducted later on.

Of course.

Such an action also consumed a massive amount of Points.

Chen Mu's Points.

Dropped crazily at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It wasn't until a day and a night later.

Chen Mu finally completely finished the Longevity Medicine.

A Longevity Medicine without any side effects had appeared in the Star Rail world.

Chapter 59: A Little Lower

Chen Mu looked at the Longevity Medicine that had finally been successfully developed, his face naturally filled with surprise and joy.

Without much thought.

He walked out of the laboratory in excitement.

However.

Just as he stepped out of the laboratory.

The expression on Chen Mu's face froze.

Because he saw.

Right at the entrance of the laboratory.

Asta was crouching against the wall. He didn't know how long she had been there; her eyes were red, and there were tear stains on her face. It was obvious she had been crying.

"X-Xiao Mu, you're done with your work."

Seeing Chen Mu come out, Asta hurriedly wiped her cheeks, stood up, and spoke to him.

"How long have you been here?"

Chen Mu looked at Asta, his face filled with astonishment.

"Hehe, not that long."

Asta gave a chuckle, speaking in a relaxed tone.

However, seeing that Asta's legs were trembling slightly, Chen Mu naturally knew she wasn't telling the truth.

"If you're here, just come in. Why wait at the door?" Chen Mu said.

Asta replied, "I was afraid of disturbing you, wasn't I?"

"Don't you know me by now? I'm not that easily disturbed." Chen Mu tapped Asta on the head, feigning annoyance.

Asta stuck out her petite tongue.

This time, she didn't emphasize her dignity as an older sister, acting more like she was coquettishly pouting instead.

The two played around for a moment.

Only then did Asta ask, "Xiao Mu, I heard you're going to board the Stellaron Express?"

Chen Mu nodded. "Yeah, you could say that. I'm going out to see the world. Herta also suggested that it would be good for me to get on the train and travel around a bit."

"Wuu... then, are you still coming back?" Asta asked, feeling uneasy.

"What kind of silly talk is that! Of course I'm coming back!"

Chen Mu said with a wry smile, "Did you forget about the Teleportation Array we invented? Not only will I come back, but I'll be able to come back whenever and wherever I want. I'll be back all the time, okay?"

"That's true, haha." Asta giggled.

Chen Mu laughed. "Asta, you're really worrying too much. You..."

Chen Mu naturally knew what Asta was worried about; it was nothing more than the fear that once he left the Space Station, she would never see him again.

But that was impossible.

Chen Mu smiled, just about to comfort Asta.

However, before Chen Mu could finish his sentence.

Asta suddenly threw her arms around Chen Mu.

This caught Chen Mu off guard, and the rest of his words remained unspoken.

"I know... but, my heart still hurts."

After hugging Chen Mu, Asta's voice began to choke up slightly as she said:

"Because, Xiao Mu and I have never been apart, right? Whether it was back home when we were little, or later when we came to the Space Station together, we've never been separated..."

Hearing this.

Chen Mu also fell silent. He gently hugged Asta back, stroked her pink hair, and said earnestly:

"Don't worry, I'll come back often. I promise, it'll be no different than when I'm at the Space Station."

Chen Mu's tone was firm yet gentle.
