Before they reported the mission to the mission hall, the Captain gave him a mutant wild pheasant. Compared to a mutant chicken, the size was smaller, but the energy contained in the meat was no less.
"Brother Rong, take it back for your girlfriend," the Captain said.
Everyone in their team knew about Feng Xiu’s condition. While they were wary of her, they also pitied her. After all, she was the victim.
What’s more, Rong Qinyu had helped their team complete many missions and let them earn a lot of points.
Even if they didn’t want to have anything to do with Feng Xiu, they still had to give him face. So, when they saw the Captain give him special treatment, no one raised an objection.
Rong Qinyu didn’t refuse and accepted the mutant animal. "Thank you, Captain."
The Captain patted his shoulder and went to the mission hall. The points would be transferred to his card automatically, so he didn’t go with them and went to the cafeteria instead.
When the cafeteria staff saw him, they greeted him with a smile. "Brother Rong, are you going to borrow the kitchen again?"
Rong Qinyu nodded and said, "I want to make chicken soup for my girlfriend."
The staff nodded and pointed at the empty stove. "You can use that stove."
"Thank you."
Since it was not yet dinner time, the cafeteria staff were busy preparing the ingredients, so the stove was unused.
Rong Qinyu knew that every part of the mutant was valuable. So, after he slit the mutant pheasant’s neck, he stored the blood in a bowl. After he was done, he put the blood aside.
When the nearby staff saw the big bowl of blood, she asked, "Brother Rong, are you going to take back the blood?"
Hearing this, Rong Qinyu looked at her and asked, "Sister Li, do you want the blood?"
The woman nodded and said, "My brother is on the verge of breaking through. I wanted to buy something good for him, but it was hard to get it from the supply store. I wonder if you are willing to sell it to me."
Rong Qinyu planned to sell the blood to the base. But since she wanted it, he said, "If you want it, I can sell it to you. Just give me the market price."
When she heard this, the woman quickly nodded and said, "I will transfer the points to you."
After she said this, she went to the counter and transferred 200 points to Rong Qinyu. There were several point machines in the cafeteria, so she didn’t have to go far.
After a moment of pause, she continued, "He said that they found a mutant Axolotl’s DNA in my body, and it is currently merging with my DNA. At this moment, they don’t have any solution for my situation, and I can only depend on myself."
While he listened to her, Rong Qinyu read the report. After he spent a year in the facility, he was familiar with the symptoms and side effects of the Elixir of Immortality.
According to the test result, his girlfriend’s progress was good. In another month, her body would be fully mutated, and she would slowly return to her previous condition and be able to eat human food again.
Seeing that her boyfriend showed no expression at all, Feng Xiu asked, "Qinyu, did you hide something from me?"
This time, Rong Qinyu finally noticed his girlfriend’s tone. He raised his head and met her gaze. When he saw doubt and suspicion in her eyes, the slight smile on his face slowly disappeared.
"Ah Xiu, you doubt me?" he asked with a hint of disbelief.
Clenching her fists, Feng Xiu said, "Qinyu, I know that I was dead back then. What did you do to bring me back to life?"
"Ah Xiu, you are not dead. Why can’t you believe me? I would never do anything to harm you," Rong Qinyu replied helplessly.
"Qinyu, I asked those people from Yunshan Base. Everyone said that I was already dead, and they saw my cold body. You were not with me when I died. How can you be so sure that I’m not dead?"
