Collapse Iron: I just transmigrated! You want me to save the Black Tower?!

Fanghu Dragon Master Yao Feng said directly, "Ms. Ruan Mei, as long as you help us solve the problem of the reproduction of the Chiming Clan, we Dragon Masters will be your support, and the entire Fanghu will be your laboratory."

After a brief silence.

Nguyen Mai spoke softly: “I’m not interested in your internal affairs, but I can help.”

Upon hearing Ruan Mei's agreement, Long Shi Zhuo Si immediately continued, "We have investigated your background. Your research on life is unparalleled in the entire universe. As long as you are willing, the problem of reproduction can definitely be solved."

Mei Ming eagerly flattered, "That's right, that's right. And it's not just about reproduction. If you need experimental materials, we can provide them too. Fang Hu lacks everything, except... 'volunteers'."

Nguyen Mai was silent for two seconds, then gave a polite smile.

The smile was faint, almost not a smile at all; it was just a slight curve at the corners of the mouth.

"I agree to your terms."

The Dragon Master's voice paused for a moment, then burst forth with suppressed glee.

"Then it's settled!"

"Ms. Ruan Mei, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"

"We'll arrange the first batch of...experimental materials right away."

Nguyen Mai did not respond further.

Then... the screen gradually darkened...

[Fireworks: Good heavens??? Dragon Master made a deal with Ruan Mei! This drama is even more exciting than I imagined!]

[Silver Wolf: What do you mean by "Dragon Lord's hegemony has lasted too long," "Fanghu needs a new voice," and "controlling the Dragon Lord"... Are these Dragon Masters serious? Aren't they betraying their own people?]

[Topa: He used his own people as "experimental subjects" and sent them to Nguyen Mai. He even called them "volunteers"... Who volunteered? Did those ordinary people know they were being "volunteered"?]

[Gold Sand: I think I see now. These dragon masters don't want a solution to the reproduction problem; they want power. The reproduction problem is just a bargaining chip to get Ruan Mei on board. Their real goal is the position of Dragon Lord?]

[Gold Sand: Immortal Boat, what's going on with the status of those on your side of the Vidyadhara? Why does the Dragon Lord's status sound lower than the Dragon Master's? And what exactly is a Dragon Master?]

......

Watching a Movie (87) - These are your people

[Jade: The desire for power can make people lose their minds.]

[Jade: The foolish Dragon Master thinks he's working with a genius, but unfortunately, Ruan Mei won't help them seize power; her goal, from beginning to end, has always been life.]

[Cang Gang: So, Fang Hu's destruction was actually caused by Master Long personally opening the door and inviting Ruan Mei in? These people...]

[Shu Ju: A classic case of trying to outwit a tiger; he'll die without even knowing how.]

【Jie Yuanjun:......】

Lord Huyuan was already laughing in anger.

[Bai Lu: General... are you alright? Your dragon horns are smoking...]

[Gokugen-kun: I feel really bad right now, Dragon Master, right.......]

[Tianfengjun: Huyuan, calm down.]

[Yan Tingjun: Calm down? What's the point of calming down at a time like this? Go calm down yourself! Those dragon masters are going to use our people as experimental subjects, how can you stay calm?]

[Tianfengjun: ...I said "Huoyuan calm," not "Yanting calm," why are you getting so worked up?]

[Yan Tingjun: Can't I be excited for her?!]

[Bai Lu: Stop arguing... It looks like Lord Hu Yuan is really about to breathe fire...]

[Yan Tingjun: She can't spray it. If anyone's going to spray, it'll be me. At most, she can make Fanghu snow for two days.]

The scene in the video changes again.

This time, the scene appears in a dark, secret room.

Several dragon masters sat together, with a square pot-shaped map in front of them, marked with several hidden coordinates.

One of the dragon masters lowered his voice: "The first batch of 'materials' has been sent over. Ms. Ruan Mei said it will take some time to conduct preliminary experiments."

Another dragon master frowned: "More? Didn't you say the results would be available in three days?"

"She said that three days is just an initial observation, and it will take some more time to see stable changes."

The first Dragon Master hesitated for a moment: "But... what about the Dragon Lord? She seems to be investigating something recently, and I'm afraid she'll find out about our relationship with Ruan Mei."

“No, that won’t happen.” The second dragon master smiled confidently. “We did it flawlessly. Those ‘materials’ were all transferred from remote areas, and the registration shows ‘normal migration.’ The Dragon Lord won’t be able to find them.”

"That's good." The third dragon master nodded. "Remember, this matter must never be leaked. If the Dragon Lord finds out, we're all doomed."

“Don’t worry,” the first dragon master stood up, “it’s time for a change of heaven in Fanghu.”

[Silver Wolf: Sending your people there as "materials" and registering it as "normal migration"? You Ming Dynasty people are really something else.]

[Topa: How many people were involved in this batch of "materials"? Dozens? Hundreds? Or thousands? How many of their tribesmen did they send to Nguyen Mai for experiments?]

[Gold Sand: And this is only the "first batch." If the first batch of experiments is "successful," there will be a second batch, a third batch, a fourth batch... until the entire Fanghu becomes Ruan Mei's laboratory.]

[Jade: Dragon Master is clearly burying his own people in batches! Do they really think they can escape?]

[Cang Gang: I'm really curious now, did those Chiming who were sent away as "materials" know they were "voluntary"? Did they know they were betrayed by their own people?]

[Shu Ju: They most likely don't know. They'll think they've been transferred to carry out some kind of mission, and they won't realize they've been deceived until they stand in front of Ruan Mei.]

[Opal: And then there was nothing more. Ruan Mei's experiment... didn't give people a chance for "what happened next."]

[March 7th: Help... I'm already imagining things...]

[Star: What are you imagining? Are you imagining those Vidyadharas being soaked in petri dishes, their bodies covered in tubes? Or are you imagining those Vidyadharas being fed insects?]

[Fanghu Chiming: ......]

[Dan Heng: ......]

[Cang Gang: I'm already looking forward to the expressions on the Dragon Masters' faces when they discover the truth; it's bound to be spectacular.]

[Shu Ju: Cang Gang, do you have a thing for this?]

[Cang Gang: I just enjoy seeing fools pay the price.]

The footage focuses on a remote area of ​​the Fanghu Immortal Boat, which was originally an abandoned warehouse area but has now become a restricted zone.

Ruan Mei stood in front of a huge laboratory table, the instruments in her hands gleaming coldly, reflecting on her calm face, revealing no emotion.

Behind her were rows of petri dishes, transparent containers filled with all sorts of indescribable objects... Some looked like unformed larvae of the Vidyadhara, while others were completely unrecognizable, just twisted chunks of flesh and protruding bones.

“The first batch of samples has been preliminarily processed.” A fox-person who looked like an assistant stood behind her, his eyes vacant, and his tone somewhat mechanical as he reported the situation. “As you instructed, we selected those… people who would go unnoticed.”

The moment he saw his deputy's face clearly, Hu Yuanjun was stunned.

[Haoyuan-jun: ...Dragon Master's reach is a bit too far; he even dares to touch the physicians around me!]

[Yao Guang: It seems... something's off about this fox-woman lady?]

[Gokugen-kun: No need to say "seems," I'm being controlled. No wonder I couldn't find anything wrong with the image of me for so long... it turns out they started by targeting someone close to me.]

[Youwu: ...You, a dignified Commander, can't you even tell that the people around you have been replaced?]

[Kouyuan-kun: ...I'd like to know that too.]

Hearing her deputy's words, Ruan Mei did not turn around.

"What about the second batch?"

"Preparations are already underway," the deputy replied calmly, but then, as if remembering something, he paused and added, "However... it seems the Dragon Lord has become aware of this and is investigating several missing persons cases recently. We may need to slow down..."

Ruan Mei finally turned around, looked at him calmly, and asked only one question: "Why do you want to slow down?"

The deputy remained silent.

Ruan Mei didn't look at her again, and turned back to the lab bench, gently touching the surface of the petri dish with the instrument in her hand.

"Keep delivering."

The deputy didn't say anything, just bowed his head and responded before hurriedly leaving.

[Fireworks: Keep sending them. It's that simple. Just three words, and they decide the lives of countless people.]

[Jie Yuanjun:......]

[Jingyuan: Calm down first. This is just footage; there's still a chance to salvage the situation.]

[Jing Yuan: If Ruan Mei's success occurs later than Jiang Jiu's declaration of war against the Immortal Boat, then everything will still be in time.]

Kouyuan-kun did not answer.

Because the video made it very clear from the beginning.

Jiang Jiu and Hei Ta stepped into... an empty city.

The implications are self-evident.

In the footage, the second batch... the third batch... the fourth batch...

One group after another of the Vidyads were sent to Nguyen Mai's laboratory under the guise of "normal migration".

They came from all corners of Fanghu, some were residents of remote villages and towns, some were itinerant doctors living alone, and some were newborns who had just awakened from their metamorphosis.

No one will notice that they have disappeared.

Or perhaps someone noticed, but no one dared to ask.

Because the list of missing persons bears the seal of the Dragon Master.

In the video, Lord Huyuan stands in the mansion of Lord Fanghu Longzun, with a list spread out in front of him.

“The thirty-seventh.” Her voice was so cold that the adjutant standing in front of her didn’t dare to look up.

“Lord Dragon Lord, we have already checked. These people are indeed registered as having made a normal migration, but their destination… is not clearly recorded.”

Lord Huyuan pressed his hand on the edge of the table, his knuckles turning white.

"Investigate," she said, uttering only one word.

The adjutant accepted the order and left, but Lord Huyuan knew that anything that could be found had probably already been completely hidden.

She looked up and gazed at the square pot outside the window.

The lights were still on, and the streets were still bustling, but her intuition told her that this seemingly peaceful fairy boat was being swallowed up little by little by something.
