The Favored Son of Heaven Chapter 549

Chapter 549 - Endless Carefreeness

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

There was a vast amount of information; the two young men stared at the screen intently, occasionally saying a few words to discuss the different topics. Only during these occasions would Enzo Rota speak a lot more than usual.

Chen Feiyu sat in the hall next to Qin Fen with a murderous look, glaring at the Founding Society’s personnel who were walking out of the door.

Special uniforms, familiar badges; Chen Feiyu would never forget anything about the Founding Society, not even after his death. Whenever he closed his eyes at night, things that had happened to him would appear in front of his eyes, all of which were fuelling the progression of his martial dao.

Chen Feiyu knew he had to endure it for the time being as Qin Fen would definitely provide a clear explanation for this in the future. The most important thing now was to not disturb Du Peng’s treatment.

Over ten hours had passed in a blink of an eye. Lin Liqiang’s glimmering eyes were slightly bloodshot and he had stopped talking with Enzo Rota and reading the information. Even if they wanted to figure out just one item from this vast amount of information, it might take them a long, long time.

Researching was completely different from understanding and digesting. This information couldn’t even be considered learning materials for Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota, just some information that could inspire them and point out the road ahead.

“It doesn’t make much sense to wait any longer.” Lin Liqiang took out a wet wipe and wiped his cheeks so that he could be more awake and said, “The overall direction and procedures have been determined. If we want to increase the chance of success, we’ll need a few months to a few decades to do research, analysis, and experiments. Even if we wait for another couple of days, it is impossible to have any increase in the success rate. Instead, things will become more and more difficult as time goes by.”

Everyone stood still. Lin Liqiang obviously didn’t come over just to say those words, he must have more things to say.

“Let’s put it this way, I did learn some anatomy and sutures for the biochemical beasts project, but these are not my strength.” Lin Liqiang looked at Qin Fen, “There should be military doctors here, right? I need the best military surgeon. It is best to call a few more in. Let me see their abilities.”

Qin Fen felt Lin Ling, who had been silent, suddenly walk up. Everyone immediately looked at this woman who was quiet and somewhat mysterious.

“Me.”

Lin Ling’s use of words was similar to Enzo Rota’s, and her expression was quiet and confident.

“You?” Lin Liqiang shouted, “Give her a set of surgical equipment and bring her a thorned-scale mutant frog. I’ll see how long it’ll take you to remove the thorned-scale frog’s gallbladder.”

Lin Liqiang looked at Qin Fen once again, “I need all of you to do a blood test. Almost all of the blood inside Du Peng’s body is dead. I can’t turn him into an insect warrior if he doesn’t even have some healthy blood.”

“Not suitable…”

“Not suitable…”

“It’s still not suitable…”

Lin Liqiang looked at the fresh blood drops and then looked at Du Zhanpeng, “I need one-third of your blood. If you can, put your elemental energy into it as well.”

Elemental energy? Chen Zhi and a few others raised their eyes. Elemental energy was different from true energy. Whether it was Humanity Aura or Ground Aura, they both initially came from converting energy into element, and it became an energy source for humans. One’s aura shield could be quickly replenished by the energy source after it was being released. Even if it couldn’t be replenished immediately, it could always recover within ten days or half a month.

The energy source was different from that. It needed a long time for cultivation and it was tightly related to one’s star-level strength. Losing elemental energy would essentially mean to lose one’s star-level strength…

In particular, for a martial artist whose strength would continue to rise in the future, this act was similar to extracting nutrients instead of supplying it during the critical period where there should have nutritional supply. Although it couldn’t be considered as fatal to one’s life, it was deadly for one’s martial dao life.

“Old Qin, you don’t have to put in any.” Lin Liqiang waved his hand, “Your blood type doesn’t match Du Peng’s. Your elemental energy will only be poisonous for him. There is no time for us to do any pairing or adjusting for you two, as it’ll take more than a day or two…”

“Done.” Lin Ling whispered while putting down the surgical tool on the table. The thorned-scale frog continued to jump on the table, but the thorned-scale gallbladder inside it had been removed. The thorned scales on its body would eventually fall off and it would die then.

Lin Liqiang raised his hand and looked at the timer, “How long can you hold the high intensity like this?”

“Ninety-five hours.”

Lin Liqiang inhaled a cold breath sharply, and he couldn’t hide the astonishment in his eyes, “Ninety-five hours?”

Enzo Rota also looked at Lin Ling with approving eyes full of admiration. Even for some strong-willed martial dao masters, they would be considered very strong if they could hold that kind of highly intensified concentration for ten hours. Almost no one could even hold for twenty hours.

Ninety-five hours? Lin Liqiang had to admit that if Qin Fen was a male version of a monster, then this Lin Ling was a female version of a monster. Not even an eighteen-star martial artist could withstand such a time span.

“Captain Du…”

Chen Zhi suddenly came forward with a tiger form, his five fingers spread and reached out to grab Du Zhanpeng’s shoulders. His eyes met with Du Zhanpeng’s eyes, “Even though you are the captain and have the decision-making power for our team’s courses of action, please don’t forget about the consequences of donating your elemental energy. Big Bro Zhan is not a god. He could wake you up from death but there is absolutely no way for him to replenish your elemental energy.”

“I know.” Du Zhanpeng raised his hand and gently patted the back of Chen Zhi’s hand on his shoulder, “It’s okay for me to lose it.”

“Captain Du, I have no intention to offend you.” Chen Zhi didn’t seem to have the intention to let go. He put more strength into his fingers and grabbed Du Zhanpeng’s shoulder tightly, “Your strength belongs to you, but at the same time it doesn’t belong to yourself only.”

“I understand that, but it doesn’t matter.” Du Zhanpeng’s smile gave an indescribable calmness and carefree attitude. He had the kind of calmness that was unique to a Childe, one that was inexpressibly handsome, “He is a brother to me, Du Zhanpeng, and he’ll never be worse than me. He’ll only be stronger than me, so you don’t need to worry about this.”

“But…”

“You’re worried that he’ll disobey us? It’s okay, I am his brother.” Du Zhanpeng gently waved his fist, “If he doesn’t listen to us, I’ll beat him up. Even if I’m weaker than him in terms of strength, I can still order him with my identity as his brother to lift his ass up to let me beat it up, right?”

Chen Zhi’s arm muscles tensed and his whole arm was trembling. He looked at Du Zhanpeng with no intention of pulling back. According to Big Bro Zhan, this man’s potential might win him the title of a divine beast martial artist if he was given the time.

“Mr. Lin.” Chen Zhi raised his voice and stuck his head up to look at Lin Liqiang, “It wouldn’t work without the elemental energy?”

“It’s not that it wouldn’t work, just that the effect won’t be as good.” Lin Liqiang scratched his head, “To tell you the truth, I am a little selfish in making this request. Without this, Young Master Du can still become a new human being, but he may not be able to achieve the best condition? As we all know, elemental energy can’t really be retained in someone else’s body for a long time even if it’s introduced into the body, and it can never be owned by that other person. However, this thing is still very helpful to the recipient’s consolidation process, as it provides similar effects like the marrow cleansing and meridian aligning.”

Chen Zhi nodded approvingly. Elemental energy did have similar effects like marrow cleansing and meridian aligning, but this thing couldn’t be replenished after it was taken out. On top of that, a limitless future couldn’t be guaranteed for the recipient of elemental energy. This was a very risky act, it was not cost-effective at all, and one could only perform this act provided he had the foundation of Humanity Aura Shield.

Which of these martial artists who could possess Humanity Aura Shield was not an expert among experts? Who would be willing to sacrifice their star-level strength and pass elemental energy to someone else just to bet on an unknown result? On top of that, Du Peng might not be able to wake up, which was another bet for them. If they lost the bet… that would be too much to lose!

“Mr. Du, you can also choose not to pass elemental energy, and just to donate blood.” Lin Liqiang scratched his head, “Sorry, I was a little selfish.”

“It’s okay.” Du Zhanpeng turned to look at Du Peng, who was soaking in the glassware’s liquid, and his eyes softened a lot, “Just do as you said.”

“Little Du, you are younger than me.” Chen Zhi sighed, “This time, I’m advising you once again as your big brother. You have to consider it carefully. You have a chance…”

“Big Brother Chen, I know what you want to say.” Du Zhanpeng forced open Chen Zhi’s five fingers on his shoulder, “Since I was young, I was called a genius. I was designated as a successor by our family. Du Peng, on the other hand, has always been a human cauldron and has been living in an environment where he was not valued. He lacks recognition from an early age, so he longs for recognition by others. It just so happens…”

Du Zhanpeng shrugged his shoulders and pointed a finger at his chest, “I hate being placed under the spotlight. Isn’t it good that I get to exchange with him?”

“Do you know what you are about to give up…” Chen Zhi couldn’t finish his words. Others’ words may not be as reliable, but the comment about Du Zhanpeng came from Qin Zhan! The Qin Zhan who was never wrong in his words!

“The opportunity to become a divine beast? As martial artists, everyone was more or less interested in becoming a divine beast martial artist. I am also quite interested in becoming a divine beast martial artist.” Du Zhanpeng smiled without hiding anything, and his chin was slightly raised by around ten degrees to look at the ceiling, “However, there will always be comparisons in this world, right? Compared to the temptation of becoming a divine beast martial artist myself, I’d rather see Du Peng have a higher chance of becoming a divine beast martial artist.”

“However…” Chen Zhi said anxiously, “Du Peng will not necessarily succeed!”

“Don’t worry, Du Peng will definitely succeed.” Du Zhanpeng tapped Chen Zhi’s shoulder heavily. The smile on his face was so bright. It was an elegant but steady smile that could cause one’s heart to tremble slightly, even someone like Chen Zhi.

“Little Du, think about it again. If you lose this bet, you will lose everything you earned.”

“I won’t lose, I won’t lose. He won’t dare let me lose. I told him to win, how dare he not win?” Du Zhanpeng turned back and smiled confidently, “I am his brother.”

That smile showed an endless carefreeness which shone even brighter than the sky and the earth.
