CHAPTER 611: CHAPTER 305: WESTERN DESERT_4

Lin Xian’s eyes lit up. It’s impressive that this young girl could come up with such a solution. Her telekinesis evolution level is not low, and her control proficiency is steadily increasing. Using this method indeed enhances the lethality, and the blades can be reused. Even if they’re damaged, Lin Xian can remake them for her. This is more efficient than just using shock waves to blast zombies.

The only issue is that high-level Abnormal Bodies have decent defensive power, so much so that even with an electric knife, he might not be able to cut them. In critical moments, KIKI would still need to concentrate her telekinesis and use shock waves for suppression.

Thinking of this, Lin Xian nodded in appreciation, "Good idea. Okay, I’ll make a hundred sets for you based on this design. Then, I’ll make an automatic storage compartment and place it on top of the train carriage. You can use it whenever you need. Will that work?"

Upon hearing this, KIKI nodded immediately, "Yes, yes, yes~ That’s what I want... ooh."

Her joyful words were cut short as Lin Xian suddenly snuck up and kissed her fiercely on her fresh lips, then quickly made his escape.

"Hey... you, you..."

KIKI angrily cursed the sneaky rascal, gritting her teeth as she watched Lin Xian’s departing figure. But in her eyes was a little hint of joy, murmuring to herself, "What a bad guy..."

Lin Xian felt that this little girl KIKI is indeed very charming. Although she seems cheeky and willful on the surface, due to her experiences growing up, she’s actually a sincere and resilient girl. Not only is she incredibly beautiful, but she’s also a genius. Of course, her only flaw is... for A, but this doesn’t affect Lin Xian’s fondness for her. The two are becoming more and more tacit, which has gradually developed through repeated life-and-death battles.

Now, his relationship with KIKI has essentially broken through that thin layer of paper, although the little girl is prideful on the surface and unwilling to admit it. She likes to find dark corners or use lipstick application as an excuse. However, the two of them are actually well aware of each other’s feelings.

...

In carriage number 3, as required, the lights in all train carriages must be turned off, and this one is no exception. Still, Ding Junyi keeps a small desk lamp on and uses experimental instruments to observe the fungal live samples she brought from the Zero Element Center.

As Lin Xian entered carriage number 3, he saw Ding Junyi just standing up and looking at him.

"You look very tired, you should rest."

"Let’s talk about it after we leave the Extreme Night Area." Lin Xian was a bit surprised; this was not something Ding Junyi would typically say.

Ding Junyi set down the equipment in her hand and seriously said to Lin Xian, "The fact that the fungal network can upload consciousness gives certain warning properties to my cognitive judgment. But this indicates one thing: the level of understanding that Dark Creatures have towards humans might be higher than we expected. We study the darkness, and the darkness studies us."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xian’s eyes converged as he murmured, "When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you."

Ding Junyi slightly raised her eyebrows: "Another point is, the fungal network and Heavenly Mushroom Tower, as unique life forms, possess the characteristic of parsing human thoughts. Logically, the vulnerability of being ignited by fire leading to chain explosions shows an extreme disparity compared to their value and protection. This is very unreasonable."

"You mean this thing shouldn’t be so easily destroyed?"

"Yes."

Lin Xian gently furrowed his brows, "Perhaps because this is already the Extreme Night Area, which inherently belongs to the territory of Dark Creatures, thus..."

"If you want to explain it this way, the corpse chaser you saw might be considered a kind of protective mechanism for them, whereas we were coincidental destructors," Ding Junyi said. "And, of course, humans themselves have explored very little within the Extreme Night, creating an asymmetry in information. After all, before Dark Creatures, we humans are still too insignificant. Being able to ignite and explode the Heavenly Mushroom Tower in ’their’ domain is undoubtedly a rare occurrence."

"I understand what you mean."

"There’s another issue you might find interesting." At this moment, Ding Junyi walked to the experiment cabin beside them, where two cultivation cabins were placed, one containing the Hell Black Chrysanthemum, and one containing Silver Dragon Ten Thousand Mistakes. Strangely, the Hell Black Chrysanthemum seemed larger than before, whereas the Silver Dragon Ten Thousand Mistakes had not only grown taller from a previously small silver-white seedling, but also sprouted a white flower bud in the middle segment.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed to emit an eerie white glow.
