"Oh? You’ve grown back?" Upon seeing Zheng Yichen again, Ahn Qi asked with so surprise, as she had not arranged for people to monitor him and only beca aware of his changes upon seeing him.
"I’ve co back," Zheng Yichen clenched his fist, the muscles on his arms tensing and bulging: "This feeling is still the best."
Ahn Qi nodded in agreent and parked the car she had driven at a parking spot, then took a seat in the car Zheng Yichen had brought over, which was also rented from the Ahn family’s rental service: "Let’s go to the research institute."
Zheng Yichen had been to the research institute several tis and knew the way well. Upon arriving, he took a large box out of the trunk directly.
Looking at the items Zheng Yichen had brought back this ti, Ahn Qi raised her eyebrows slightly; judging by the size of the box, the quantity of items Zheng Yichen brought back couldn’t be too many. As for their quality, that was still unclear.
With the box now in her office at the research institute, Ahn Qi looked at the items Zheng Yichen took out, her expression growing increasingly astonished.
"What are all these?"
"So extraordinary creature blood samples, high-tech research materials, cellphones..." Zheng Yichen listed his bounty from this trip. Acquiring so of the technical materials wasn’t that difficult, especially with the help of Chiang Wei, and he had also brought back quite a number of electronic products.
Chiang Wei had considered having Zheng Yichen take Doris with him, but after learning of the specific circumstances, Zheng Yichen refused. Doris, being a very unique AI, would attract more attention, and Chiang Wei didn’t want Doris to be used as a re tool.
Zheng Yichen’s suggestion was to leave Doris at the Dusk Cathedral, where no one could cause trouble inside, and if anyone tried to lay hands on Doris, they wouldn’t have the opportunity.
Besides, he didn’t have a hacker as skilled as Chiang Wei on his side; in case anything happened to Doris, he wouldn’t be able to solve it.
"Hmm? This is great." Ahn Qi imdiately perked up; she picked up a cellphone to examine it. It was different from the ones they used on their side. As expected, it wouldn’t be long before the Ahn family ca out with new products, including those electronic contact lenses.
Ahn Qi tested them and felt their convenience was even better.
As for the research materials, they were stored in the laptop Zheng Yichen brought back. There was a lot of research data, not much of it involved high-end technology, but the information it contained could solve many of the Ahn family’s research issues, particularly the projection technology.
Things like projection camouflage, projection screens, and so on, could all be easily accomplished, including imrsive holographic technology... This technology was also available in their world, but it wasn’t the Ahn family that had launched it first but another family, because in Hazy City, it wasn’t just the Ahn family that engaged in the exploration of anomalies.
Items such as those biological samples would later be sent to his fifth sister, and the research materials would be sent to his second brother. What Ahn Qi valued the most was the information about the special ability interference device within.
"This item... did you go to a high energy level world this ti?"
"Yes, but it has its limits." Chiang Wei had the idea of creating a higher-level interference device for Zheng Yichen, but by that ti, she was already being watched, so this kind of special ability interference device was considered low-end in her world. However, the basic research materials were quite complete.
Whether they could develop sothing better here in Hazy City would depend on the research strength here. This device had a significant impact on special abilities; it was effective against magic as well, specifically by interfering with the free energy in the environnt, making those thods that could mobilize environntal energy ineffective or hard to use properly.
But such a device would be useless in a world of high strength levels. Moreover, it only interfered with the energy in the environnt. Against martial arts experts who could release saber Qi and Sword Qi, the effect of the device could be ignored. Their attacks were a manifestation of Inner Strength, of Qi produced from within, with no direct connection to external environntal forces.
Furthermore, interference is mutual; water can counteract fire, but intense fire can also evaporate water.
Yet, Ahn Qi still saw the value of this device. There is no such thing as a perfect item. Without considering all situations, if the device could function in so environnts, it would bring great assistance to her hunters group.
"How about we have dinner together tonight?"
"That might not be a good idea."
"It’s not you who’s paying." After a brief mont of thought, Zheng Yichen took out his cellphone and called Katrina, ntioning that he had business to discuss that evening.
The dinner turned out a little different from what he had expected. It wasn’t just the two of them, but three—Ahn Qi’s sister Ahn Longling also ca. As for the relationship between the sisters, Zheng Yichen felt it was sowhat complicated. Initially, he didn’t understand, but after learning more, he realized the possible intricacies.
The mother of the older sister is the younger sister, and the mother of the younger sister is the older sister.
It was a bit dizzying, but the circumstances of this pair of sisters were indeed rare, and as for Ahn Qi’s father... one could only say that it’s good to be wealthy.
During this dinner, Ahn Longling formally exchanged contact information with Zheng Yichen, and the reason was legitimate. The local Ahn family forces she oversaw were recently chasing an unknown creature, and they might need Zheng Yichen’s help in the future. By adding contact information beforehand, they could quickly reach out later without having to go through Ahn Qi.
Zheng Yichen had already realized that he was becoming quite a sought-after individual.
