Chapter 963 - 445: Say That Again—What Do You Want?
In theory, if I help out, she can absorb it a bit faster, although the encyclopedia left by Shanqing Daoist included methods to help someone absorb medicine.But damn, that requires following the human body’s meridians.
This Slime has a marketplace’s meridians.
Shanqing Daoist only taught me the basics, not the advanced stuff.
To avoid making things worse, Lin Li thought it best to let things run their course.
If you observe closely, you can still see the pills slowly shrinking, so it definitely won’t take days or weeks to absorb. I can afford to wait.
"Since the injury is not a concern anymore, let’s chat," Lin Li sat cross-legged on the waterproof cloth, looking at the Slime in front of him. "I have a lot of questions about you, and I know you feel the same about me."
"Let’s start with introductions. My name is Lin Li, do you have a name?"
"Of course I have a name, I’m called Zhu Ning," the slime named Zhu Ning introduced itself.
Lin Li initially expected a more Western-sounding name.
But it made sense since they were speaking Chinese, so Lin Li nodded, "I see, Miss Zhu... to show good faith, let me first explain my situation."
"I’m not from your world."
As he spoke, Lin Li reached back to slowly undo his protective suit, then lifted the visor, revealing the face beneath.
Seeing Lin Li’s face, Zhu Ning was completely frozen. After a while, an astonished voice came out, "How can this be?"
"Lin Li... you’re not a human? How come you look like this..."
Zhu Ning had always thought that the person inside the protective suit was human, just like her.
Lin Li: "..."
How rebellious of Celestial Gang.
But from Zhu Ning’s perspective, it’s understandable.
"I am human, at least in my world I am. My world..."
As in the Doomsday World and Cultivation Realm, Lin Li wasn’t hiding the origin of his background.
He straightforwardly explained the general situation of Earth, and his ability to travel between worlds to Zhu Ning.
"...In short, I’ve been wandering the bottom of this canyon for about twenty hours and didn’t see any living beings until you appeared."
"I know almost nothing about my current situation and your world’s circumstances, so I hope you can provide some answers and introductions."
When Lin Li finished speaking, Zhu Ning remained silent.
Her ’hand’ held Lin Li’s phone, staring at this new and surprisingly functional ’tech’ product, with locally saved videos and photos documenting Earth’s existence, lost in thought for a long time.
Lin Li found her reaction normal, and so he didn’t rush her, instead waiting quietly.
Anyway, he still had seven hours to stay in this world; there was plenty of time.
"It’s incredible... such a miraculous thing..."
Zhu Ning mumbled as she looked at the phone, then her body slowly wriggled and transformed, gradually forming a human silhouette.
Even if it was just a silhouette, it had distinct limbs, torso, and facial features, but it was quite crude and not detailed enough for scrutiny. The fingers of its hands were like duck webs, with connections between them, and the feet didn’t have toes, just a cylindrical shape, and the head lacked facial features.
Someone who didn’t understand might be quite terrified at first glance.
"Still not enough recovery..."
Zhu Ning mumbled again as the newly transformed human form softened back into a lump, except the head which retained a clear human face.
But a translucent human head atop a lump of a body was even more terrifying.
Zhu Ning looked at Lin Li: "So Lin Li, your world has two genders, and you are the legendary male, right?"
"Yes," Lin Li nodded along with Zhu Ning’s words, "I am the legendary high-quality male."
"Male... the last time I heard that term was in history class as a child." Zhu Ning remarked with a sigh, then glanced at the phone, then back down at the pill still being digested within her, looking at Lin Li with admiration:
"So, Mr. Lin Li, has your world’s technology and medical level developed to such a strong degree?"
"A ’phone’ that works normally in a silent field, and medical means that can heal my kind of injury with just a small ’pill’ without any assistance..."
"Not really," Lin Li shook his head,
"The phone works properly because the technological path we’ve taken is entirely different from yours, so what you call a ’silent field’ can’t restrict our tech products."
"As for the pill, didn’t I mention I can traverse and linger between worlds, and occasionally get items from those worlds due to my superpower? That pill is one of them, and it doesn’t belong to my original world."
"Actually, I also have products from your world, granted to me by my superpower."
"Products from our world? What are they?" Zhu Ning was curious, coming back to her senses from the shock, and looked at Lin Li.
"Mecha, and some auxiliary facilities."
Lin Li snapped his fingers, and in the next moment, an A+ Combat Armor appeared, standing tall beside the two of them.
"Dawn No. 2? No, wait? It’s a bit different?" Zhu Ning exclaimed.
"I don’t know what you call it; my ability only labels it as A+ Combat Armor. And since it originates from your world, it adheres to your world’s rules; when I tried using it at the canyon’s bottom, it reported control restrictions due to the ’silent field,’ moving very sluggishly, let alone flying."
Lin Li shrugged and calmly explained.
"Can you also pilot your armor, even in your human form?" Zhu Ning was taken aback, looking at Lin Li and slowly asking.
"Yes."
Seeing is believing; Lin Li willed the mecha’s hatch open and proactively leaped into the cockpit to quicken the process.
Waiting for the slime-like matter to re-envelop him, the countless warning signs on the screen remained unchanged.
"Silent Field! Power System Obstruction!"
"Silent Field! Energy Weapons Temporarily Unusable!"
"Silent Field! Neural Link System Obstruction!"
"..."
Since last operating the mecha at the canyon’s bottom, Lin Li’s Mecha Synchronization Index had increased significantly due to his missions, but the actual control of the mecha still felt severely restricted, though slightly better than before.
Looking at Zhu Ning, Lin Li slowly opened the mecha’s hand: "Hmm."
Zhu Ning’s voice was filled with disbelief:
"Males... can actually pilot mecha, and A-level ones at that. The history class never mentioned this..."
"And directly A-level..."
Since starting the conversation with Lin Li, Zhu Ning found herself talking to herself an unusually frequent number of times.
Upon seeing Lin Li emerge from the mecha, Zhu Ning looked at Lin Li seriously: "Mr. Lin Li, can you see your Mecha Synchronization Index?"
"80, displayed 160% in the mecha," Lin Li provided the answer, then asked out of curiosity, "How’s that number in your world? High or low?"
And once again, Zhu Ning was dumbfounded.
Three seconds later, her entire form prostrated on the ground, loudly pleading with Lin Li:
"Mr. Lin Li, if possible, could you give me your Promotion Device! This is really important to me and my country!!!"
Lin Li ☉_☉: "You want what?"
Zhu Ning: "Please! Transfer your Promotion Device to me!!!!!"
Lin Li: "(゜▽゜)?"
