My Honkai: Star Rail System Arrived Early

Ruan Mei inwardly decided to properly test Ji Yuan's talent again.

She looked at Ji Yuan and took his hand once more.

"Come, Ji Yuan, follow me. I'll show you something and give you a reward. If you can still satisfy me, I will definitely teach you my knowledge."

After speaking, she led Ji Yuan outside.

Ji Yuan felt Ruan Mei's actions and didn't know what she was thinking, so he could only let her lead him outside.

However, judging by her words, Ji Yuan felt that he had passed the first step of the test.

After all, it was the her from a hundred years later who was teaching him, an enhanced version of the current Ruan Mei.

Led by Ruan Mei to the corridor, Ji Yuan glanced back and happened to see Yanqing looking at him with a surprised expression.

Yanqing hurried over and asked Ji Yuan:

"Brother, what's going on?"

"Ms. Ruan Mei wants to take me to see something."

Ji Yuan explained to Yanqing.

Ruan Mei stopped and smiled gently, saying to Yanqing, "I'm taking him to my spaceship to see some interesting things. Don't worry, I don't have the guts to harm anyone on your Xianzhou."

Hmm...

Yanqing's face showed a thoughtful expression.

And taking advantage of this moment, Ruan Mei had already pulled Ji Yuan towards the elevator.

She had always lacked interest in people without scientific talent or utility.

It was better to properly assess the talent of the person in her hand.

Chapter 66: Ruan Mei's Advanced Test [Second Update]

"So, Brother has been taken away?"

Yanqing watched Ji Yuan and Ruan Mei leave, blinking and unsure how to react.

Were Ruan Mei's words problematic?

Not at all.

But seeing Brother being taken away by such a woman, Yanqing felt something was very wrong.

"If I can't do anything, I'll go ask Sister Tingyun and Sister Sushang. If that doesn't work, I'll have Sister Tingyun bring Brother back."

He thought to himself.

Next, Yanqing hastily finished his patrol duties and returned to their resting area.

Upon arriving at the resting area, Yanqing saw Huohuo serving juice to Sushang, a smile on her lips. Sushang, on the other hand, had her hands flat on the table, looking utterly dejected and drained of color. 'Tingyun' was holding a stack of account books, diligently calculating them.

Yanqing said to 'Tingyun' and the others, "Something bad has happened, Brother Ji Yuan has been taken to her spaceship by that Ruan Mei."

"What!?"

Sushang immediately jumped up, her small face filled with surprise.

Phantylia also set aside the account books in her hands, her fingers tightening slightly.

Ji Yuan, did he escape?

If he really left with Ruan Mei, how would she find him?

Having taken so much advantage of her, to be able to leave smoothly in the end was absolutely unacceptable.

"I must make him devoted to me, and then destroy him at the last moment. If he escapes, there will be someone in the universe who can take advantage of me without paying the price."

Phantylia thought to herself.

"It's, it's very normal for a genius like Teacher to be valued by Ms. Ruan Mei,"

Huohuo said softly to Yanqing.

"Valued by Ms. Ruan Mei? Does she want Brother to be her bodyguard?"

Yanqing asked doubtfully.

Brother's talent is strong, but it hasn't yet turned into combat power. It's still too early to be a bodyguard.

Sushang replied to Yanqing, "No, Brother's life science talent is also extremely strong. Last night, he spent the whole night, oh no, not even a whole night, and he learned a lot of life science knowledge. He even created a flying plant this morning."

Nine-five-zero one-year-old nine-zero-nine

Yanqing felt like he was listening to a fairy tale.

A flying plant? What kind of thing is that?

"In short, Brother is indeed a top student. If nothing goes wrong, Ms. Ruan Mei might directly recruit him as a student to research life science together."

"No way?"

Such a scene appeared in Yanqing's mind.

His great brother, the genius of swordsmanship, putting on a white coat, wearing glasses, holding a test tube in his hand, conducting scientific research...

No! Not that!

Yanqing wanted to scream.

He stood up, wanting to go stop his elder brother from 'falling'.

However, before he could make a move, someone else was faster.

Phantylia had already taken the lead and walked outside.

"This little lady doesn't want anyone to take Ji Yuan away."

She said to Yanqing and the others.

[You and the Master of Life Cultivation, Ms. Ruan Mei, toured the entire ship together. You are rewarded with an ordinary Life Cultivation secret recipe from Ms. Ruan Mei.]

While still thinking about the reward, Ruan Mei was already leading him by the hand to the edge of the ship.

"Come, let's go up and take a look. My spaceship has a lot of good stuff on it."

Ruan Mei very warmly invited Ji Yuan to go up, her expression as if she were coaxing him, just like telling him she had a cat that could do backflips on her spaceship.

No matter what, Ji Yuan wanted to learn from Ruan Mei. He quietly activated his defensive measures before following Ruan Mei.

Seeing his cautious movements, Ruan Mei smiled gently and said nothing more.

She climbed the ladder first towards her cabin.

"I'm not an expert in the mechanical field, so the structure of this ship is quite rudimentary," Ruan Mei said as she climbed. Ji Yuan stood at the bottom of the ladder, waiting for Ruan Mei to enter before following her.

The elegant oriental noblewoman was now climbing the stairs with her hands and feet, and Ji Yuan could vaguely see the outline of her legs through her qipao.

Halfway up the ladder, Ruan Mei stumbled slightly and fell. Ji Yuan happened to be below and reached out, catching Ruan Mei.

Holding Ruan Mei, embracing such a charming beauty, Ji Yuan instantly felt uncomfortable all over. Ruan Mei, however, calmly separated herself from Ji Yuan's embrace and said nonchalantly, "You don't need to feel shy, this is just normal physical contact."

Saying this, she continued to climb up. Ji Yuan followed behind, and the two of them entered Ruan Mei's spaceship together. As soon as they stepped inside, several figures bounced and jumped towards them.

Ruan Mei turned on the lights, revealing the appearance of the figures to them.

Ji Yuan couldn't help but be startled.

Metal bodies dancing, cats made of gummy material doing constant backflips.

She really did have cats that could do backflips!

Ji Yuan grumbled in his heart.

And even more so were various cylindrical creatures, which emitted the aroma of pastries.

"These..."

"Yes, I created these creatures using pastries and some other materials,"

Ruan Mei said nonchalantly.

Ji Yuan's eyes widened as he looked at them. The ferns he created were, after all, still within the scope of living things. Ruan Mei's scope had already reached the level of inorganic matter.

"This is your next assignment. If you complete this assignment, I will teach you my knowledge," Ruan Mei said, picking up a stack of papers.

"These are the data and reports I've researched in these areas. Next, it's up to you to come up with and create powerful new creatures."

This time, she didn't even give Ji Yuan books, but directly provided him with information, asking him to figure out how to do it and then provide his own ratios.

Before, giving him books was to see if he could get started and learn some of her knowledge in the future, to be a qualified assistant, so the requirements were naturally much more relaxed. Now, Ruan Mei directly gave Ji Yuan experimental reports, which meant she was cultivating him as her helper, wanting to see if he had talent equal to hers.

Seeing Ji Yuan's gaze fall on these data reports, his brow furrowing slightly, she softly said, "I'm going to take a nap. When I wake up, I'll see your answer."

With that, Ruan Mei walked towards the single bed on the spaceship.

Sitting on the single bed, Ruan Mei took her feet out of her high heels, revealing her soft feet. She lay on her side on the small single bed, displaying a beautiful and delicate posture as if in a spring dream.

Chapter 67 Ruan Mei: Herta, Ji Yuan is a genius who can be on par with us [First Update]

A pair of soft, charming feet became quiet as Ruan Mei rested, looking like an artwork woven from silk brocade. Ji Yuan glanced at them a few times before shifting his gaze to the experimental reports in his hands.

With the introductory knowledge of virtual Ruan Mei personally teaching him in his mind, he wasn't completely unable to understand the experimental reports before him. However, to fully grasp her ideas at a glance as Ruan Mei expected, Ji Yuan couldn't do it.

Ji Yuan picked up the reports and began to read them one by one.

They documented Ruan Mei's experiments and whimsical ideas. How to extract the properties of inorganic matter, and how to transform it into living beings while retaining its properties.

Creating life from scratch, Ji Yuan felt that Ruan Mei's data flow was enough to allow a barren planet to develop a unique life circle completely different from other life in the universe from scratch.

It could even completely abandon conventional life-forming substances like carbon-based, silicon-based, or energy.

Ji Yuan finished reading all the data experiments one by one. He thought his doubts would be alleviated, but after finishing, his doubts actually increased. Many things felt hazy, as if there was an outline ahead, but no matter how he reached out, he couldn't grasp it.

It seemed close, but the distance Ji Yuan needed to cover to master it was vast, perhaps even unreachable forever. And the current Ruan Mei expected him to provide a conclusion during her nap.

[You have read the experimental list gifted by the Master of Life Sciences, Ruan Mei. You are specially rewarded with a one-on-one teaching session from Ms. Ruan Mei.]

Being able to receive guidance from the Ruan Mei of a hundred years later, Ji Yuan clenched his fists excitedly.

When facing difficult challenges, people always have to rely on their own efforts to learn and overcome them.

System, let me start learning!

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and began to enter his own consciousness space.

Last night, the laboratory appeared before Ji Yuan once again. The virtual Ruan Mei was sitting in a chair, tilting her head as she looked at him.

"We meet again, Ji Yuan."

"Yes, I'll have to trouble you again this time."

Ji Yuan leaned in front of her, speaking with a fawning smile.

"A fawning smile is meaningless. I am a virtual lifeform. Even if you order me around with punches and kicks, I will still behave the same way."

Ji Yuan looked at her awkwardly.

The virtual Ruan Mei said calmly to Ji Yuan, "My personality is the same as the real Ruan Mei. I don't care about other people's bodies or my own. Perhaps it's only my current form that makes me feel curious. A virtual body can perfectly replicate the real Ruan Mei's emotions, memories, skills, and so on."

"To make me feel emotion, you would have to do something that shocks even me. However, in this sea of stars, I wouldn't necessarily feel curious even about the actions of an Aeon."

The virtual Ruan Mei grabbed Ji Yuan's arm and placed it on the test bench, explaining useful things to him about the experiment while he worked.

Casually picking up the experimental data that had been replicated into the consciousness space along with Ji Yuan's consciousness, she looked at it and said to Ji Yuan, "This is something I experimented with a hundred years ago. However, my time is limited this time, so I'll explain the useful parts to you."

At this moment, outside Ruan Mei's spaceship, Phantylia had already arrived. She knocked on the ship's door a few times, but both of them were in a deep sleep, and no one answered her.

"What are these two doing inside? This young lady is truly curious!"

Her tail swayed back and forth behind her, and Phantylia's expression was somewhat distorted.

Ruan Mei's strength was inferior to hers, but the level she operated on was no less. She could probe Ji Yuan without restraint, but she dared not act rashly in front of Ruan Mei's ship, lest she expose her identity.

She could only wait quietly outside.
