"What do you an, do you really want to go?"
"Broaden my horizons," Tang Xian said with a casual air.
He couldn't very well say that he was planning to take down the Evolution Zone, given that the organization had partnerships with the Li family, as well as with other current top-tier fortresses' masters. It could be said that they knew very well how to survive. To offend them was to implicitly offend many major powers.
This was also the reason he had approached Li Xiaoyu.
Li Xiaoyu wouldn't harm him.
"I'm not so brainless woman with big breasts, you can't fool with that talk."
"You are indeed not a woman with big breasts or without a brain. But I have my reasons for what I do. Have you ever seen at a disadvantage?"
Li Xiaoyu nodded, pretending she hadn't heard Tang Xian split a certain word.
She thought to herself, could all those fruits Shang Lu gave her be genetically modified inferior goods? Why were they having no effect at all?
Tang Xian, on the other hand, was thinking about sothing else. He suddenly asked, "Is Eve with you?"
Li Xiaoyu was stunned.
A bit annoyed, she looked at Tang Xian.
Not only are you holding onto the bowl I gave you, but now you're eyeing soone else's pot, and even thinking of poaching my bodyguard?
So, he liked that kind of fierce-looking woman?
Tang Xian couldn't help it and knocked on Li Xiaoyu's head.
Li Xiaoyu ca back to her senses and said faintly, "My guard is naturally always with ."
"Could I borrow her for a bit?"
"You!" Li Xiaoyu glared at Tang Xian.
Considering that Li Xiaoyu was brainless in certain situations, Tang Xian explained:
"I just want to understand the situation from her, after all, she cos from the Evolution Zone."
Li Xiaoyu looked at Tang Xian with a cold expression but eventually clapped her hands.
Soon, Eve entered the tea house.
"Miss, you called for ."
"I didn't call you, he did."
"Hello. I have so matters I'd like to consult with you about," Tang Xian greeted politely.
Eve knew about the second miss's feelings for Tang Xian and wasn't sure if she should respond. In the end, she simply nodded and asked, "What would you like to know?"
"Regarding the Evolution Zone, you don't rember anything, do you?" Tang Xian asked.
Eve nodded and said, "There are only so extrely short fragnts, but they basically don't form a coherent clue, and I instinctively feel they are not pleasant mories, so I haven't tried hard to recall them."
Tang Xian continued to ask:
"You should know that your talents and physique are much stronger than the average person, even more superior than so outstanding hunters. As for the reason, you probably don't know, do you?"
"I don't rember. Sorry," Eve said, her expression remaining stern.
"Never mind. There's a plant in the mining area called Anai, whose sap can make creatures fall into hallucinations and cause certain damage to the brain. If severe, it can lead to amnesia, but it is not irreversible. I know so recovery thods, and if you're interested in your past mories, I can help you," Tang Xian said.
"If you have this requirent, I can cooperate with you," Eve said.
Cooperating with Tang Xian was equivalent to helping Li Xiaoyu, and Eve knew this.
Tang Xian shook his head and said:
"There are many ways to induce amnesia in humans. It's not necessarily what I've ntioned. You also said these mories are probably not anything pleasant, so I won't insist. I'm rely informing you that these mories might be recoverable. Whether or not to act on this is a decision only you can make. There is one more thing I need to ask of you."
Eve was sowhat surprised. Tang Xian didn't possess the dominance of the second miss.
"Go ahead."
"I would like to have a fight with you."
Eve was taken aback, and so was Li Xiaoyu.
Tang Xian felt he had almost investigated everything he needed to. Eve's level of candor was high; she was not lying. This female bodyguard truly did not rember the past.
But as a person who had scored full marks in the Trials of the Chosen, Tang Xian had delved into much knowledge.
Akasi demanded the blood of the creatures from the mining area. The Soul Crystal was secondary.
This led him to think of the ancient technology of extracting biological serums.
This technology he also only had a basic understanding of.
Injecting the serum of the creatures from the mining area into humans would certainly bring a significant enhancent of strength to the human body. The question was, could humans tolerate the serum of these ferocious creatures?
Tang Xian almost concluded that what the Evolution Zone was doing was along the lines of what he had in mind.
So, in order to take down the evolution zone, we must ensure one thing.
"Mr. Tang, I cannot fulfill this request of yours."
Tang Xian glanced at Li Xiaoyu.
"Why are you looking at ? I've never beaten you, why should she hit you?"
Tang Xian reminded Li Xiaoyu, "The last ti we t."
"The last ti was to stop you!"
Tang Xian recalled his last encounter with Eve, indeed there was no difference from others, he couldn't feel the opponent's strength. But he still had to be cautious and confirm it.
Perhaps she didn't exert her full strength last ti?
Li Xiaoyu looked at Tang Xian with a weird expression, what kind of request was this? Did this man have so special fetish?
Tang Xian found it hard to explain.
He was now immune to harm from humans.
But it was hard to say for sure whether these people who had been injected with the serum from the mineral zone creatures were still considered human.
His plan was not complex, one could even say it was rather blunt, but this was predicated on facing humans.
So Tang Xian didn't beat around the bush and forcefully said,
"No need to fight, testing our strength is also fine."
Eve did not refuse this, saying, "How shall we compare?"
"Arm wrestling?" Tang Xian rembered the captain of the White Rose Team, once caught by his hand, couldn't break free. Theoretically, through arm wrestling, he could confirm whether Eve, this kind of super soldier, belonged to the range of humans.
It was a necessary thing, Tang Xian believed it was worth testing.
Eve's gaze turned towards Li Xiaoyu.
Li Xiaoyu was breathing rapidly, obviously agitated to the extre.
"You actually want to touch her hand!"
Unable to communicate, Tang Xian said, "Everything I'm doing now can be considered preparation for hunting apocalypse creatures. If you're so fond of the Song Family, then continue talking. If not, shut up."
Li Xiaoyu pointed at Tang Xian, eyes wide, at a loss for words.
But at this ti, Li Xiaoyu also rembered that Eve had said Tang Xian was strong.
She quickly cald down and once again beca her usual cold and noble self, as if the angry reaction from before had never happened.
Li Xiaoyu nodded and said to Eve, "Go on. Don't lose."
Eve then sat opposite Tang Xian.
Arm wrestling in the tea house was not rare, but it was quite unusual for a rich family's young miss to bring her bodyguard to arm wrestle with Tang Xian.
There were still so people here who recognized Tang Xian.
Tang Xian was the type who, whenever there was an uproar in the mining zone, would hide at the back and calmly analyze the situation, never getting his hands dirty.
The others didn't know what Tang Xian was up to.
So they each began to speculate.
Perhaps he was so poor guy trying to impress a rich girl by showing off his strength?
That seed plausible, and the onlookers' attention gathered on them.
Li Xiaoyu had wanted to clear the room, Tang could embarrass himself in front of her, but that didn't an others could ridicule him.
Just thinking that this man was so arrogant, he actually preferred touching another woman's hand instead of hers, she decided to let him lose face.
Tang Xian extended his hand, got into position, and signaled with his eyes that Eve could start.
Eve wondered whether to give him so face, after all, he was the man the second miss liked.
Pretend a bit?
So she didn't exert much force either, waiting for Tang Xian to make his move. But Tang Xian didn't exert any force as well.
In arm wrestling, there is basically no talk of offense and defense; both sides just push in the opposite direction, but the one exerting force later often does so confident in their superior strength.
Eve did not expect Tang Xian to be so confident.
She then tried to exert force, to let Tang Xian know the difference in strength.
Yet Tang Xian's hand still did not move, nor did his expression change.
A few seconds later, not feeling the pressure one usually feels while arm wrestling, Tang Xian urged, "You can start now."
Eve: "..."
Didn't we just start?
