Chapter 626: Look, the Excitement Has Arrived
Chapter 626: Look, the Excitement Has Arrived
After checking in and boarding the train, the one-stop service ended. On the train, Qin Muye was holding two pieces of human skin in his hands. These pieces of skin were not from the same stitching area, suggesting they were from different individuals.
"Have you figured anything out after looking at them for two hours?" Sun Zhen asked.
"I have, these things are incredibly resilient," Qin Muye said seriously.
What else could he figure out? They were just pieces of skin, from top to bottom, with no other impurities. There was no resentment or energy, just plain skin, not some heavenly material or top-tier artifact.
However, it wasn't entirely without merit. This skin was truly resilient. He didn't know what these pieces of skin had gone through to become so tough, but he knew that they were impervious to water, fire, and blades. If you stitched together a few hundred pieces to make armor, you could jump into lava without fear of the skin breaking.
Of course, dying from the heat was a different matter. The skin was fire-resistant but could not block heat, so theoretically, you could swim in lava as long as you didn't mind being burned to death.
The same applied to water. If you were fully covered, water couldn't seep through, but the pressure and lack of oxygen were issues the skin couldn't solve.
Weapons were similar. Striking the skin might not cause injury, but the pain would be real.
"Do you want some? We can gather a few hundred pieces and make you a set of armor. It will be impervious to water, fire, and weapons. Let me tell you, bullets can't penetrate it, and missiles can't destroy it," Qin Muye said, but he only said half the truth. Bullets couldn't penetrate the skin, but the force would still be transmitted. Missiles couldn't destroy the skin, but the energy released would likely kill the wearer.
"No thanks, I don't want it. It's human skin," Sun Zhen said with disgust. He was a normal person, unlike Qin Muye, who seemed indifferent to everything.
Qin Muye's face showed a hint of regret. "That's a real shame. With my skills, it would definitely be a divine artifact."
He did have a part of the Titan god race, so calling it a divine artifact wasn't a stretch.
"So, who are you really?" Sun Zhen probed, following up on the topic.
He had always found that he knew very little about Qin Muye. He knew Qin Muye had a low presence, possessed special abilities, and the basement incident had shown him that Qin Muye was far from ordinary.
"Me? That's a long story. Back in the days of the Eastern Continent's Proud State, at the ancestral vein of the Ten Continents and the dragon's breath of the Three Islands, there was a floating mountain called Flower Fruit Mountain."
Qin Muye rambled on, changing the subject, while Sun Zhen looked puzzled. "So, you're the monkey?"
"Oh, no, I was just making it up. Just consider it a story," Qin Muye said, finishing the first chapter of "Journey to the West" and making it clear that he wouldn't reveal his identity.
Sun Zhen naturally understood the implication and didn't press further. If Qin Muye didn't want to say, asking wouldn't yield results and might offend him.
"Can't you be a bit more tactful? Isn't it a bit too direct to refuse me like this?" Sun Zhen responded.
"You have a point. Mind your own business with the big shots, that's tactful enough, right?" Qin Muye found the kid interesting. At least he knew his place and understood how to use a strategic retreat to build a relationship.
"You're even more direct now. Fine, I won't ask," Sun Zhen said, a bit exasperated but also relieved to know he hadn't offended Qin Muye.
After spending some time together, Sun Zhen had observed a bit of Qin Muye's character. If Qin Muye was willing to chat, it meant there wasn't a big problem. If he spoke formally, then there was a big problem.
Moreover, Qin Muye was unpredictable and liked to stir things up, always getting involved in everything, especially the bigger issues, but he never showed his face, staying in the background and running away at the first sign of trouble.
It was hard to say whether to call him cowardly or reckless.
The two of them chatted intermittently, as there was nothing else to do. This wasn't a plane ride that would only take three hours.
Suddenly, intense arguing could be heard from outside.
"The soundproofing is really poor," Sun Zhen complained. He had bought a high-end soft sleeper, meaning he was the only one in the room, though there were two beds. Otherwise, Qin Muye wouldn't have a place to stay.
"Seems like it's right outside the door. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to speak like that? What if someone hears you?" Qin Muye thought that this person had subconsciously let it slip. If it were someone else, they would have gone to check it out.
"By the way, from the voices, it sounds like two women. Do you want to go take a look? If they get into a fight, you might get to see some hot girls fighting."
"Pass. I don't want to get caught in the crossfire. They're arguing, and that's their business." Qin Muye's suggestion was outright rejected by Sun Zhen. It was better to be cautious and avoid stirring up trouble.
But Qin Muye didn't feel the same. He sensed that something abnormal was taking shape.
"Damn, what is that seeping in?" Sun Zhen suddenly noticed red liquid seeping through the door crack.
"You didn't learn anything in Chinese class. That's not seeping; that's squeezing in," Qin Muye helpfully corrected Sun Zhen.
"..." Sun Zhen was speechless. Was this really the time to discuss whether it was seeping or squeezing?
"I told you to go see the commotion, but you didn't. Now, the commotion has come to see you," Qin Muye added.
Sun Zhen immediately understood. So, this thing was the result of the argument between those two women? This was too terrifying. No matter how you looked at it, it was clearly related to women.
"You said you wanted to hear us argue, didn't you?" The red liquid writhed and formed two young, attractive female faces.
The chilling cold made Sun Zhen's body stiff, but his blood flowed rapidly, like a train speeding along.
At that moment, Sun Zhen was truly at a loss, wanting to cry but unable to. He wasn't the one who wanted to see the argument, so why was he the unlucky one?
Oh, Qin Muye had a low presence, so the other party only saw him. So, he had to bear all the blame.
He wanted to explain, but he couldn't even move his eyeballs. A layer of frost covered his skin, and the rapid blood flow made him feel like he was seeing Ling Wei and the manager as human skin.
His blood began to seep through his skin, mixing with the frost to form a layer of blood-colored crystals, which looked incredibly eerie.
"This look seems familiar." Qin Muye looked at the blood-red ice statue and felt that it resembled one of his past techniques, albeit a bit crude.
'Don't just stare. Save me, or I'll be done for.' Sun Zhen's "cooling down" was literal, as the loss of heat and blood made him start to lose consciousness.
Seeing this, Qin Muye first removed the negative effects from Sun Zhen's body and restored his vitality.
He then turned his attention to the pool of blood that had formed the faces.
"Not the main body, just a derivative. Interesting." He reached out and pinched the blood into a thumb-sized ball, causing the two faces to twist and fold together, unable to resist.
"Jealousy?"
Qin Muye couldn't help but smile. He could feel that this thing was trying to assimilate him. If an ordinary person had touched it, they would have been filled with jealousy and then turned into a pool of blood, becoming one of the faces.
"How are you feeling now?" Qin Muye asked Sun Zhen.
"Much better, almost didn't make it back," Sun Zhen said, his muscles aching. Qin Muye had restored him, but the feeling still lingered.
"Alright, since you're better, let's go fight the boss. You'll be the main attacker, and I'll support you," Qin Muye said, shocking Sun Zhen.
"You'll support me? Shouldn't you be the one who does the killing and I just cheer you on? Why am I the one fighting!!!" Sun Zhen couldn't believe it. From Qin Muye's previous actions, it was clear that he was the real deal.
"I'll be the one cheering you on, and you'll be the one cutting through the enemies. This division of labor is very clear," Qin Muye wasn't bothered by the idea of not doing the killing.
"The division is clear, but you're dividing the wrong roles. I can't beat them," Sun Zhen said helplessly. If he had the ability to kill, he would have gone, but he didn't.
"No problem, I'll make you some equipment." Qin Muye looked at the thumb-sized blood ball in his hand, thinking it should be fine, considering it was a superpower.
