New Discovery

Bang-

She had just gotten out of the car when a loud crash came from the dilapidated house, followed by piercing howls and scratching.

The little Azure Dragon had regained consciousness last night. It shouldn't have lost control again so soon.

Xin Lan guessed the damned fox had caused the commotion.

Sure enough, as soon as she entered the house, she found nothing but dried bloodstains and fox fur left on the floor. The door to the bedroom closest to the living room had been smashed to pieces, and a huge hole had been torn in the wall.

Xin Lan sent the vines in first, intending to see what was happening before deciding whether to enter.

But the moment a vine poked its tip inside, the Azure Dragon, which had been crouching on the fox's back and holding it firmly down with its claws, suddenly whipped up a hurricane and charged out.

It let out a resounding dragon roar, its sacred blue-green vertical pupils gazing joyfully at the vine for a while. Then it immediately scooped up the vine with its stiff claws and clumsily held it in its embrace.

Xin Lan: ...

Good grief, does this Azure Dragon like my vines that much?

The vine ignored it, darting straight inside to bind the still-rampaging fox and drag it out.

Seeing the damned fox again, Xin Lan wasn't happy at all. Instead, she frowned deeply.

"How did it recover so quickly?"

The damned fox had clearly been so badly injured yesterday that it was close to death, yet all its wounds had healed today!

Although its fur hadn't had time to grow back, the wounds where its flesh had been torn open to the bone had vanished completely. Even its skin had returned to a healthy, pink and springy state, without a single scar.

This was outrageous.

Did all mutants have such terrifying regenerative abilities, or was it just this damned fox?

Xin Lan knitted her brows and immediately had the vines squeeze some fresh wounds into its previously injured areas.

Naturally, she didn't spare the Azure Dragon either, which was serving as her control subject and sitting obediently nearby, playing with a slender vine.

The Azure Dragon's defense was so high that it really was difficult to break through, but her vines were no pushovers either.

Coated in mental power, they could smash anything.

"Roar-"

Several scales on its body suddenly burst apart, and the Azure Dragon immediately let out an anguished dragon roar.

It collapsed to the ground in pain. As it looked at the vine, its blue vertical pupils showed a surprisingly humanlike trace of sadness, as though it couldn't understand why the vine, which had been so gentle yesterday, was hurting him today.

Watching it foolishly cover its gushing wound with one claw while still trying to scoop the vine into its embrace with the other, Xin Lan felt a little moved. Even so, she withdrew the vine without mercy.

The Azure Dragon watched helplessly as the vine vanished. Its slightly raised head immediately drooped to the ground, and it began to gasp heavily.

The damned fox wasn't doing much better.

Although its injuries were much lighter than yesterday's, perhaps because the Azure Dragon had pinned it down all day and it had no strength left to resist, it wasn't making a fuss this time. It simply lay on the ground, panting in pain.

Time ticked by, second by second.

Sitting on a sofa that was even more battered than yesterday, Xin Lan watched their wounds heal at tremendous speed, almost simultaneously. New flesh grew, then scabbed over, and the scabs quickly fell away. Her expression was anything but pleasant.

So all mutants had such powerful regenerative abilities.

What about pollutants, then?

Was it because pollutants also had this kind of regenerative ability that the pollutants on this planet, and even throughout the entire Yota Galaxy, had never been completely eradicated?

She wasn't a sentinel and had never seen how sentinels killed pollutants and mutants with her own eyes, so it was hard to make a judgment for the moment.

But this matter undoubtedly needed to be addressed as soon as possible.

No matter what it took, she had to find out how these things regenerated so quickly.

"Beep, beep."

Her wristband suddenly received several messages.

They were from Chi Ming and the others.

Chi Ming: "Lanlan, I want to move into the Sanctuary and live with you. Can I?"

Wu Xi: "Miss Guide, according to the Human Development Code, the sentinel guards matched to you by the Star Brain must move into your residence within a week to protect you at all times, so I've already packed my bags and come to the Sanctuary! Which room do you think I should stay in? Little bear making a heart.gif"

Cang Leng: "Miss Guide, when are you coming back? My Spirit Body misses you a little. He kept making a fuss in my Mental Landscape last night, insisting on sleeping with you. If possible, could you save me a room a little closer to yours? I think he probably won't be so sad if he's closer to you."

Yun Jin: "Miss Guide, I know you're very strong, but it's really dangerous out there. Please come back soon. I'll wait for you."

As soon as she finished reading Yun Jin's message, he withdrew it.

The message he sent again was the same, except he had deleted the final four words.

Xin Lan clicked her tongue and ignored all of them, opening Mo Xiao's profile instead.

"Administrator, when will the ninety-first floor be ready?"

Mo Xiao replied almost instantly.

"Tomorrow."

"Then tell Chi Ming and the others to move in tomorrow. I can't be bothered replying to them one by one."

After sending the message, Xin Lan looked at the damned fox, which had gone mad again, and the Azure Dragon, which had been forced to fight it, and sighed.

"Sigh, not one of them gives me any peace."

Several dark-blue vines of varying thicknesses appeared again.

They slithered silently like snakes onto the two fighting mutants. The Azure Dragon consciously wanted to get close to the vine, and not only did it offer no resistance, it welcomed the vine enthusiastically.

But the damned fox had clearly been beaten enough by the vines to fear them.

It immediately stopped fighting the Azure Dragon, rolled over, and began frantically tearing at the vines wrapped around it.

But today, the vines didn't attack it again. Instead, they were very gentle.

This surprised the fox, and after a brief moment of surprise, it happily accepted the vine as its new friend.

Xin Lan watched them silently, an inexplicable, peculiar feeling welling up in her heart.

She felt that it probably wouldn't be long before she could enter their Mental Landscapes.

That was the vine's feeling.

It had come out of nowhere, but Xin Lan trusted it unconditionally.

And so, with her tacit permission, the Azure Dragon and the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox continued playing for several more hours.

Just as she yawned and was planning to head back and continue tomorrow, a different fluctuation of mental power appeared around the Azure Dragon first.

A powerful surge of mental power suddenly erupted, then quickly withdrew. It lasted only a few seconds, but that was enough to make Xin Lan perk up.

When she saw the Azure Dragon suddenly make the humanlike gesture of clutching its head with both claws, she decisively released her mental power and sent it into the dragon's brain to investigate.

Soon, she discovered an extremely unstable region inside its previously empty brain.

This is its Mental Landscape!
