The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

Lu Yuan's idea was to exchange mechanical arms for Xuan Shuang ore, and then use the Xuan Shuang ore to exchange for combat skills.

In reality, Lu Diaolong only needed to say one sentence.

After all, the entry and exit of Xuanshuang Ore all came through the Equipment R&D Department, and the entire Equipment R&D Department was just a matter of his word.

"Very good!"

The next day, after deducting 14000 points, Lu Yuan successfully completed the exchange for the Earth-rank combat skill, Earth Splitting.

Similar to the previous Earth-rank combat skill, Heatwave, specific learning will require additional time to arrange.

Lu Yuan wasn't in a hurry, after all, his arm injury hadn't healed yet, and it wasn't really suitable for him to practice combat skills.

Although my injuries make it inconvenient to practice, I can still conduct experiments.

Over the next few days, Lu Yuan spent his time at the equipment research and development department discussing the final touches on the battle sword with Lu Diaolong. Essentially, he was helping Lu Diaolong analyze some more blueprints, as a way of repaying Lu Diaolong for helping him exchange for Xuan Shuang ore.

Although he brought out the mechanical arm from Tianjing Group, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly without Lu Diaolong as the middleman.

Another thing is to conduct drug trials with Lin Xiangjun.

Over the past period of time, Lin Xiangjun has already studied most of the data he previously provided.

As before, Lu Yuan extracted some data from the downgraded formula, then deliberately complicated it by adding some unnecessary details, and gave it to Lin Xiangjun to study.

The perfect version of the Qi and Blood Enhancement Potion formula in his hands has too great an impact; he can't really give it to Lin Xiangjun, at least not now.

So Lu Yuan figured that he would let Lin Xiangjun spend a few years researching a medicine formula that could increase one's Qi and Blood by four or five thousand.

During this period, besides learning pharmaceutical testing procedures from Lin Xiangjun, his main focus was to further strengthen his relationship with Lin Xiangjun and completely latch onto her.

However, Lin Xiangjun is a research fanatic, and all her energy is devoted to drug research. To this day, Lu Yuan and she are still only collaborators, and they can't even be considered friends yet.

Of course, whether it's helping Lu Diaolong unload equipment blueprints or doing research and development with Lin Xiangjun, the mysterious tattoo is needed.

As a result, Lu Yuan had no choice but to go to Li Wenxiu that night to recover his mental strength.

As for Liang Hongyun, she hasn't returned from the city yet.

As a general, it would take several months to leave the city once.

"Do you want to become a martial artist?"

After a fierce battle with Li Wenxiu, Lu Yuan suddenly asked a question.

After using the potion, Li Wenxiu had six thousand units of Qi and blood, and had awakened the Ren Water Battle Body. Not only did he already possess the prerequisites to become a martial artist, but his potential was also enormous!

Out of personal motives, Lu Yuan never allowed Li Wenxiu to join a martial arts faction in exchange for the method of cultivating Qi and opening meridians, but it's hard to say whether Li Wenxiu herself didn't have such thoughts.

After all, for everyone in this era, becoming a martial artist is like a carp leaping over the dragon gate—a tremendous temptation.

"I have no idea."

Li Wenxiu nestled in Lu Yuan's arms and gave a flat reply.

Lu Yuan looked down at Li Wenxiu and couldn't help but smile.

"How could you not know what you're thinking?"

"I don't need my own ideas."

Li Wenxiu traced circles on Lu Yuan's chest with her index finger, her tone remaining calm.

"I'll just do as you say."

"You are a person, and you should have independent thoughts."

"I will think about it, and the result of my thinking is that I will listen to you. Everything I do will be decided by you, and I won't have to think about anything. I can live a peaceful and happy life like this forever."

"Wenxiu, you..."

Lu Yuan frowned slightly. "Are you out of your mind?"

Although she didn't say it aloud, it was clear that Li Wenxiu's mental state had become somewhat unhealthy.

Lu Yuan had actually noticed this long ago, but now it seems that the situation is more serious than he previously thought.

"Good girl."

Lu Yuan smiled and gently stroked Li Wenxiu's smooth body.

Li Wenxiu, like a kitten, squinted her eyes slightly, enjoying Lu Yuan's caresses.

In front of Lu Yuan, Li Wenxiu abandoned her independent thinking and personality, which is indeed a kind of pathology, but for Lu Yuan, it may not be a bad thing.

Conversely, this is actually a good thing for Li Wenxiu as well.

Because Lu Yuan would never let her down!

With Lu Yuan standing in front of her, he could not only have a happy and peaceful life, but also reach a height that she never dared to dream of!

Putting these things into practice will just take some time.

It must be said that Li Wenxiu was indeed very smart; after careful consideration, she made the wisest choice.

"Just one more to go."

A few days later, with only two days left until the assessment, Shen Qiubing returned after completing the task.

In this way, only tall trees remain.

Five of the six members of the Nandou team have completed the assessment task. As long as Gao Shu can also complete the task, the assessment can be considered passed.

But this is also what worries people the most.

After all, among the six, Gao Shu was the first to choose a mission and was also considered the weakest.

The "rescue" mission he chose was also quite troublesome.

But at this moment, neither Lu Yuan nor Jin Xinxin can help much; Gao Shu can only rely on himself.

Besides praying that Gao Shu could complete the task, everyone couldn't help but understand why Wu Jianming wanted to conduct this kind of assessment.

The barrel principle states that the amount of water a barrel can hold depends on its shortest stave.

In a team, if someone's skills are insufficient, it will drag the entire team down.

"That's about it."

As for Lu Yuan, after several days of rest, his arm has fully recovered after the bandages were removed.

It must be said that advanced healing potions are really useful, especially for external injuries.

In contrast, although the internal injuries have not yet fully healed, they are already mostly recovered.

Lu Yuan has received news that he can learn the Earth-rank combat skill Earth Split tomorrow, and his physical condition is now fully capable of doing so.

Ding dong~!

It was getting late, and I was just about to get ready to rest when there was a knock on the door.

"Autumn Ice".

Upon opening the door, one could see Shen Qiubing standing there.

She just got back from her mission today. Why didn't she get a proper rest instead of coming to him first?

Moreover, Shen Qiubing's eyes were red, clearly indicating that she had just been crying.

You must have suffered some injustice.

Lu Yuan immediately thought of Shen Fengxing, or other members of the second or third branch of the Shen family.

But then I thought, no, that's not right.

Although the main branch of the family is small, it is still the main branch. Moreover, Shen Qiubing is highly talented and is highly valued by Shen Fuyue, as can be seen from some previous events.

Even if the second and third branches of the Shen family were arrogant, they wouldn't dare to openly bully Shen Qiubing.

Moreover, Shen Qiubing is actually very strong. She has made it through all these years. Now that she has joined the Star Dou Team, how could she possibly feel wronged and shed tears because of this?

There must be another reason behind this.

Why?

Just as Lu Yuan was about to ask a question, Shen Qiubing looked at him and suddenly said something.

"What?"

Lu Yuan was taken aback and looked at Shen Qiubing with some confusion.

"Why! Why did this happen!"

Shen Qiubing bit her lip tightly, her eyes red as she looked at Lu Yuan, trying her best not to let her tears fall. Her cries, besides being filled with resentment, also carried a hint of despair.

"No, what exactly...?"

Lu Yuan was completely confused, but before he could ask for clarification, Shen Qiubing suddenly covered her face and ran away.

She couldn't even wait for the elevator; she silently cried as she fled down the stairs.

"What exactly happened?"

Lu Yuan stood frozen at the doorway, his brows furrowed tightly.
