Blue Star women on Earth could never develop a waist like Xiao Cha's.
Her waist was so slender that she could use an upright A4 sheet of paper as a blanket.
At the same time, the skin is very taut, and healthy abdominal muscles are hidden beneath the smooth skin.
Lu Li couldn't help but exclaim, "A woman's waist this kind of extraordinary... only exists in comics, right?"
At this moment, Xiao Cha was already limp against him. She would be powerless to resist if he did anything too outrageous.
But Lu Li prided himself on being a virtuous gentleman; how could he possibly take advantage of someone in distress?
He patted his abs a couple of times, then stood up and said, "I'm leaving. You should get some rest."
Xiao Cha lowered her head, only her bright red ears were visible, and said in a sweet voice, "If you touched them, you have to come back early."
Upon hearing this, Lu Li blurted out, almost as if possessed, "Can I still touch it when it comes back?"
"Get lost!" The girl threw the Tiger Doll at him fiercely.
Lu Li caught it with his mind and said with a smile, "I'll be back as soon as possible."
But Xiao Cha had already turned her back on him and was ignoring him.
With a focused mind, Lu Li gently placed the doll back in its place and turned to leave the room.
As soon as he left, Xiao Cha hugged her Tiger Doll and rolled around on the bed, blushing with embarrassment.
Xiao Cha's room was next to Tong Shao's... so the next morning, both of them overslept.
Tong Shao rubbed his eyes and complained to Wan Qing, "Xiao Cha rolled around in bed all night, it was so noisy!"
Wan Qing said with a strange expression, "I heard that too. You're not getting enough Heart Blood; you need to rest properly."
Xiao Cha blushed deeply and stammered, unable to utter a word.
Fortunately, Lu Li arrived at that moment to say goodbye.
Wan Qing was prepared and quickly handed over a large oil paper package, saying:
"Young Master, this is some donkey-hide Ejiao I made. Martial arts training requires a constant supply of medicinal food; take it with you on your journey."
Donkey-hide gelatin is rich in Ejiao, which has a strong effect of nourishing qi and blood.
Furthermore, with the addition of expensive mountain delicacies such as Lingzhi during the Wan Qing, its effects are sure to be extraordinary.
Lu Li quickly took it and said, "Thank you, I'll eat it every day."
"Bon Voyage."
Wan Qing and Tong Shao performed a Wanfu Ceremony together, and Xiao Cha followed suit.
Lu Li tall, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and embarked on his journey home, carrying the girls' blessings.
~~~~~~~~~~~
This time, we won't have to stay in the alleyways.
Lu Li went to the now-empty "medical clinic," arrived at the most spacious main room, and summoned the Kunlun Mirror to activate the [Cross-Realm] Divine Ability.
An aerial view of the Blue Star appears on the mirror, the Blue Star slowly rotating.
The next second, the world changed instantly, and Lu Li was back on the rooftop of his apartment.
He went downstairs, took out his phone, and sent Jessica a text message: [I'm back]
It was 10 a. m., and Jessica was in class, so she didn't reply immediately.
Lu Li wasn't in a hurry and went home to take care of his own affairs.
Following the order of easiest to most difficult, the first step is to purchase "Titanium alloy".
This is a very common metal on Blue Star; you can buy it directly online.
Lu Li went to the Amazon shopping website and found that there were dozens of options to choose from.
After careful selection, based on the requirements of electrical conductivity, magnetic permeability, and high hardness, he chose "tungsten-titanium-cobalt cemented carbide".
I bought a ton for $100,000, requesting it to be processed into spherical shapes ranging from 3 to 10 centimeters in diameter. Now all I have to do is wait for delivery.
After finishing the simple tasks, it was time for the "Terminator" to take over.
This is quite troublesome...
According to the "Spirit Binding and General Dispatch" text, the more human-like the puppet, the better.
Because the "Divine Soul," which serves as the power source, originates from the human brain.
This magical energy possesses a certain degree of subconsciousness.
They need to be made to believe they are still alive and driving a real body in order to function properly.
There's a line in "Spirit Binding and General Dispatch" that Lu Li:
[The resurrected puppets will retain some of their former behaviors, such as liking to wear accessories, and some will even shave.]
Therefore, the "Terminator" is definitely not something you can just find a blacksmith shop and assemble into a human-shaped iron lump.
It requires professional design and specialized factory production, which is quite troublesome.
But once it's made, those fearless metal golems would be absolutely amazing! Not to mention they could even form an army!
"This is no small matter; we need to find a reliable person to handle it."
Lu Li dug out his father's old smartphone again, hoping to find an "old acquaintance" he could contact.
He quickly found one--
Liu Jiang, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a robotics expert, designed robots that repaired Tiangong-2 in space...
At this moment, Lu Li's brows furrowed slightly.
This Academician Liu certainly meets the requirements, but would someone like that even bother with me?
Even though I have the phone number saved, we might have just met by chance at some academic conference, and my father has never mentioned this person before...
"Let's give it a try, I still have a million dollars."
Emboldened by the money, Lu Li dialed the phone number... but immediately received a notification:
The number you dialed cannot be reached...
"Changed number? No..." Lu Li dialed several more times, but got the same message each time.
He had a vague guess: it must be set to "reject calls from unknown numbers".
In other words, the father saved someone else's number, but the other person didn't save his.
Lu Li shook his head helplessly; for now, he could only find a lower-ranking replacement.
But after thinking about it carefully, I'm really unwilling to give up like this.
The wisdom and knowledge of such a person can genuinely enhance the combat power of the puppet!
"Fine, I'll try one more time!"
So, Lu Li then called Professor Qian Ping.
The elite academic circle isn't very large. Qian Ping has risen to fame and knows his father, so he probably knows Liu Jiang too. It would be helpful to make a connection.
~~~~~~~~~~
As the saying goes, stories don't happen without coincidences.
Professor Qian Ping not only knew Liu Jiang, but they were also sitting together.
It was already late September, and the two were invited to attend the National Day military parade.
Many old friends also came to the capital, so we agreed to meet up at a teahouse.
There were more than ten people present, all of whom were top scholars from various fields. During their casual conversation, Qian Ping seemed quite spirited.
In a time when traditional Chinese medicine is dismissed as "pseudoscience," his discovery of the human meridian system is indeed the most powerful rebuttal.
However, in these private settings, the conversations mostly revolve around personal matters.
Qian Ping then said, "You guys remember Lu Hongbing, right? He seems to be doing quite well in America..."
He recounted Lu Li's extravagant spending of millions.
But everyone shook their heads after hearing this, and one person even said, "I heard he's destitute and almost dying."
"He must be doing poorly; we haven't even heard from him."
Amidst the lively discussion, Qian Ping's phone suddenly rang.
He opened it, smiled, and said, "What a coincidence, it's his son's call."
Qian Ping answered the call directly in front of everyone, and after a few words, he looked at Liu Jiang with a strange expression.
"Okay, I'll look into it for you."
After hanging up the phone, amidst the curious gazes of the crowd, Qian Ping said to Liu Jiang, "You've seen Terminator, right?"
Liu Jiang looked puzzled. "Of course I've seen it, what's wrong?"
"That kid is offering $1 million to have you help him build a 'governor'."
"Ah?"
The fifth update will be around 11 PM. If you're impatient, you can check back tomorrow morning.
