"Is that transparent creature important to you?" Shen Muyu asked the young man as the car got back on track.
"Yes, it is very important. It can turn water into oil, but the biological process itself is not very controllable, so we have not yet fully understood the mechanism."
Perhaps for his own safety, the young man answered immediately, since this person didn't look like someone sent by the base at all.
"Hiss..." Hearing the young man's words, Shen Muyu's eyes widened. Water turning into oil? This sounded like a joke. But remembering the dark brown viscous liquid from before, she couldn't help but believe it a little.
"What a loss!" Shen Muyu thought to himself. How could he have killed such good creatures? If he could have raised one, he would have made a huge profit!
However, that's just wishful thinking. The transparent slime sticks to anything it touches, and it's not very intelligent. It also has the most troublesome spatial ability, so there's no way to trap it.
"Was that transparent creature discovered after the apocalypse?" I wonder if it mutated from something. I hope I can encounter it again in the future.
"No, it was discovered before the apocalypse. The plant zombies and the like in the third basement level were all there before the apocalypse. Otherwise, the base couldn't have been built so quickly," the young man blurted out.
"So what have you all researched?" Judging from the old man's attitude just now, Shen Muyu guessed that they were quite important to the base and should have achieved some results.
"Our group is only responsible for the research on transparent organisms, and the progress is not significant. We have only discovered that the extracts from the plants that accompany them can temporarily block their senses."
"The others are just a liquid extracted from the organism itself. This liquid turns directly into oil when poured into water. The ratio is that about 1 ml of this special liquid can be used to make about 50 liters of oil."
"However, this liquid was extracted too late and too slowly. Only a small tube was collected before the transparent creatures awakened their abilities."
The young man spoke as he recalled the events.
"Oh? Where is that small tube of liquid?" Shen Muyu's eyes lit up when she heard his words.
"I saw the professor tuck the oldest man into his arms." The young man betrayed his teacher without hesitation.
"Zhan Yi, go and look for it." Shen Muyu's words rang in Zhan Yi's ears.
Zhan Yi came to the back and pulled the two people off the professor and started searching. He found it without much effort in the inner garment at the chest.
Shen Muyu glanced at it; the color wasn't very transparent, it had a milky white feel. She wondered if the ones Zhan Yi had collected had the same effect, and she would definitely have to give them a try.
"Zhan Yi, knock him out too." Shen Muyu was completely ungrateful. It would take at least two hours to get to the Huangshan base, and she still had things to do.
Zhan Yi easily sent the young man to sleep with a single chop to the neck. Shen Muyu felt this and stepped down from the tower.
After transferring the items from Zhan Yi's backpack to her own, she took out a specialized robot.
"Yes!" The robot successfully revived in the backpack, and Shen Muyu couldn't help but smile.
"Little A, do you want to change to a real body?" Shen Muyu said to Little A after taking out the robot. Intelligent assistants like this can have their carriers changed.
"Not for now, Master. Having a physical form will greatly reduce my control over the car, and I won't be able to help you as well then," the pixelated little A on the screen said pitifully.
"Then just bear with it a little longer! We'll give you a different body when you get out of the game." Shen Muyu touched her ear sheepishly. She couldn't afford to lose such a useful helper as Xiao A for the time being, so she'd think about it later.
"Mmm, I'm not in a hurry, Master. Besides, I'm already used to this car." Pixel A gave Shen Muyu a big smile to comfort her, which only made Shen Muyu feel more embarrassed.
"Okay, Little A, good luck! I'm going to check out the dimensional space!" Shen Muyu put away the robot and ran back to the dimensional space, also throwing out the people he had thrown in earlier.
Big White always remembered its mission and followed them out. Shen Muyu ignored it and returned to the cabin.
"Wei Yi!" Shen Muyu called out as he sat down on the small wooden stool outside.
"I'm here," Wei Yi's gentle electronic voice announced.
"If you disconnect from the solar power system, can you still control it and the house's lighting system?" Shen Muyu asked, looking up at the roof instead of immediately taking out the robot.
"Yes, it's a very simple system. I've already added plugins to control it," Wei Yi said directly.
"That's good. Here, take this. You can stay in this robot for now. We'll replace it with a better one when we get one." Shen Muyu took Wei Yi out of the power generation system and put it into the robot.
"Weiyi has successfully taken over the robot, please rest assured." Before Shen Muyu could ask, Weiyi stretched his limbs and said to her.
Upon hearing this, Shen Muyu nodded in satisfaction.
