Chapter 399 - A Clueless Youth Has Much Joy
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A hundred times! Even if she only weighed 50 kg, a hundred times her weight would mean 5000 kg! Even if there was a discount, she would still be able to lift up two cars! The key problem was that she was a female, a petite and very pretty female!
And judging by her expression, this appeared to be a very embarrassing thing to her…
Damn it, I definitely haven’t woken up yet today! Has a real-life Hulk appeared?!
Fortunately, after Zhang Yi said these, she added, “Actually, I’m not always able to do that. Usually, I’m still very normal.”
You’re saying that when you’re not normal, you’re not human right…
Honestly, Hong Dali was now very curious about how Zhang Yi got her nickname. It sounded very awesome, right? Had she really killed someone before?
“That, Sister Yi,” Hong Dali cautiously asked, “Though you’re strong, you look quite normal to me. Why did you get this nickname of Killer Bee?”
“This?” Zhang Yi was even more embarrassed now. “Two years ago, I was captured by the mercenary army in Africa. They wanted this genetic modification technology of mine, but I didn’t have a choice, so I killed them all. Then, I got this nickname. Speaking of which, I really didn’t mean to do so. Had they not been attracted to me and harbored ulterior motives, it was actually fine to give them this technology…”
This… This…
Looking at her appearance, she was probably at most 21 to 22 years old. Even if he were to stretch it, she was only 23. That meant that two years ago, she had just turned 20?
And this matter of her killing people and inflicting harm had been said so peacefully and composedly by her—so scary!
“That, Sister Yi, are you still researching into how to make yourself strong?” Hong Dali subconsciously retreated a bit. “You aren’t working towards a strength of two hundred times, right?”
“No.” Speaking of which, technology geeks like Zhang Yi all had this kind of trait—once a topic she was interested in was mentioned, she would speak more. Lin Chuyin was like that, and Zhang Yi was not an exception. “Currently, I’m studying into how to increase the comprehensive combating ability. Um, that, have you heard of the Giant weta?”
“Never heard of it before!” Hong Dali and everyone around shook their heads in unison. “This thing is very powerful? What is it like?”
“Giant weta is a huge insect. It doesn’t have wings, and its length is about 10 centimeters.” Lin Chuyin insipidly said, “The Giant weta has practically never undergone evolution throughout the recent 200 million years. It has kept its unique characteristic till now, and it’s the largest insect in the entire natural world. Among them, there are some who weigh 70 to 80 grams and are bigger than flies by 100 to 150 times, and they are 50 times bigger than ordinary locusts.”
“Fifty times bigger than ordinary locusts!” Hong Dali said in shock, “Then how powerful must it be?!”
“Someone did a test before.” Zhang Yi grinned. “Eating sun spiders alive, battering up mantises, separating the limbs of house centipedes, violently attacking and defeating tarantulas, hitting king baboon spiders till they have not the least strength to fight back… How’s that, it’s powerful, right?”
“Powerful, powerful.” Hong Dali fiercely nodded his head. “Sister Yi, all the best!”
“Of course.” After saying these, Zhang Yi asked, “This time, you should lend me the money, right?”
“Lend! I have to lend it!” Hong Dali’s eyes lit up. “Sister Yi, after you finish your research, give me some samples. After I use them, will I be able to become Superman too? Oh right, Sister Yi, this is counted as a special ability of yours, right?”
Just by thinking of it brought so much excitement. Lifting up a car with one hand? Wow, if it was coupled with the exoskeleton armor, a superman would be produced at once!
“When technology advances to a certain extent, it can be likened to a special ability.” Zhang Yi pointed at Lin Chuyin. “After Chuyin’s exoskeleton armor has been completed, wouldn’t it be akin to having a special ability of emitting electricity? Mine is just a special ability that belongs within the body, and hers is just an external special ability.”
Aye? Speaking of which, this was really logical…
“OK! That’s settled then!” Hong Dali decisively decided. “Is 50 million enough? If it’s not enough, you can find me for more!”
“It should be more or less enough.” Zhang Yi grinned and stood up. “If it’s not enough I’ll come to find you again. Anyway, you’d probably be unable to escape, hee hee. Then I’ll leave first, younger brother Dali. Wait till I attain my research results and I’ll come and look for you! Um, it should be around two months’ time.”
“OK, there’s no hurry.” Hong Dali wiped off his sweat. “Sister Xiaoyi, transfer the money to her.”
“OK, Young Master.”
After Ling Xiaoyi brought Zhang Yi away, Hong Dali lay on the sofa and panted. “What the heck. Scary! This Sister Yi is quite pretty, but she’s too scary with regards to her actions! She kills people just like that…”
Tang Muxin was still a little scared out of her wits, as she used her small hand to pat her chest and said, “Yes, yes, she’s so pretty yet so scary. Look at what she’s researching on, they’re all insects!”
“Um, Chuyin.” Hong Dali thought for a while. He remembered that previously, Lin Chuyin had said that Zhang Yi was the most dangerous among the Holy Grail members. Thus, he resolutely asked, “Looking at Sister Yi’s appearance, she doesn’t seem to be so scary…”
“Mm, the side effects of genetic modification are very big.” Lin Chuyin insipidly said, “When Zhang Yi is normal, she’s still fine. When she’s abnormal, she is very aggressive. Moreover, due to the genes, her destructive ability far surpasses humans.”
Upon hearing her say that the genes of the insects were so strong, then it could be inferred that her destructive ability would definitely be very big. The problem was, exactly how big was it?
Currently, he only knew that she seemed to have destroyed a mercenary army?
“Then, are there any specific examples?” Hong Dali stared with wide eyes. “I don’t have an exact concept by just hearing what she said.”
“Mm, that mercenary troop had a total of 97 members.” Lin Chuyin’s voice was still as insipid as ever, but this matter was not banal at all. “Completely destroyed.”
Damn!
Completely destroyed a mercenary army with 97 members!
Everyone around drew in a cool breath. Wasn’t this a little too terrifying?
“Because she focused on researching genes, and it was the genes of insects, so she’d obtained a portion of their ability.” Lin Chuyin explained, “For instance, a super powerful strength, super fast speed, and so on. I know that for the genetic modification regarding her speed aspect, she’d used the genes of the fastest insect in the world—the tiger beetle.”
En, if the strength was the biggest, then something a hundred times heavier could be lifted. But if the speed was the fastest, how fast could it be?
“Um, what’s a tiger beetle?” Hong Dali asked.
“A tiger beetle is a type of beetle, and it’s a general name of the Coleoptera,” Lin Chuyin explained. “It’s an ordinary size beetle, a carnivore. It’s active in the day and often moves around mountainous roads or on the sand. It can fly low to catch and eat little insects. The speed of the tiger beetle is 171 times the normal speed of the cheetah. Zhang Yi can’t be so fast at the moment, but it’s not a problem for her to instantly increase her speed to more than 10 times her normal speed.”
Hong Dali: “…”
Tang Muxin: “…”
The rest: “…”
Speed more than 10 times faster than a cheetah. Gosh, isn’t this too scary?
Alright, only speed can beat the martial arts around the world. With a speed more than 10 times faster than a cheetah, it really wasn’t too difficult to kill more than 100 people…
This time, Hong Dali had finally learned why nobody was following Zhang Yi to protect her when she came here—this fellow was totally not to be provoked. If she was really provoked and got angry, he really didn’t know how serious the consequence would be…
“Alright, looks like those that deal with insects are all powerful people. They can’t be trifled with!” Hong Dali made a final conclusion.
Alas, speaking up to this point, a low and elegant voice sounded from the entrance. “Insect? What insect is Young Master Dali talking about?”
The person who had come was so handsome it could shake the sky and the ground. His posture was elegant, and he had a slight smile on his face. Apart from Liu Mingxin, Big Young Master Liu, who else would it be?
“Old Liu?! Why have you come?” Hong Dali stared with wide eyes. “Speaking of which, you don’t come here easily. Is anything the matter?”
“Actually, initially I didn’t plan to come.” Though Liu Mingxin was so handsome, cool and charismatic, his expression was full of worry. He dispiritedly said, “The newly launched Spiritual Sword online game has too great a popularity! Currently, this is only the third day of the open beta testing, but the number of players simultaneously online has already reached a peak of 800,000.” As Liu Mingxin spoke, he slowly sat down on the sofa and started fanning himself. “Its popularity is really high, yet the popularity of my Draconic Continent has dropped by quite a lot. This damn weather is really extraordinarily hot, as if there’s a fire.”
“Is that so.” Hong Dali nodded. “I have a plan. Speaking of which, it should more or less have arrived by now…”
“What is your plan this time?” This rascal’s plans always scared others to death. The always calm Liu Mingxin was also getting a little unsettled. “You aren’t thinking of doing something again, right? Honestly, recently, I really don’t have time to help out!”
“Don’t worry, I’m very honest.” Then, what he said next almost scared Liu Mingxin to death. “The weather is too hot, so I wanted to make some artificial clouds and make cloudy weather, then it’ll be cooling!”
“Cough cough cough—!!!” Liu Mingxin almost fainted out of shock. His eyes were wide open as he said, “You’re saying that because the weather is too hot, so you’re planning to make clouds to block the sun?!”
Speaking of which, Liu Mingxin wasn’t so easily alarmed. Why did he always lose control in front of Hong Dali?
“Yes!” Hong Dali shamelessly nodded. “It’ll be cool this way!”
“God…” Liu Mingxin face-palmed. “Aren’t you the least worried about Spiritual Sword? It has already broken past 800,000 players simultaneously online—this will have an extremely huge impact on our future Dream Dota League!”
“What are you so scared for, things will somehow fall back into place!” Hong Dali was not the least concerned. “Anyway, there will definitely be a solution.”
“I really wish to know where you got your confidence from, Young Master Dali.” Liu Mingxin felt that this human in front of him totally could not be understood from a scientific point of view. “Young Master Dali, your heart is extraordinarily…” he thought for a while, then blurted out, “Vast!”
Tang Muxin was very much in agreement, and the little lass sat there fiercely nodding her head. Speaking of which, she wondered what Hong Dali’s heart was made of. It was extraordinarily magnanimous; as if in his eyes, nothing was worth him being very concerned about.
“A clueless youth has much joy.” Tang Muxin concluded accordingly.
