"Good things are good things...but most of them are useless."

Looking at the pile of things, Lin Yi sighed and first gathered the spindles together. There were already 40 spindles, and it would soon be time to break Texas three times.

Personality Extraction Voucher and Pistol… I can't find anyone to use them for now. As for the lab kit, Lin Yi was interested, but unfortunately, he couldn't afford it. His major wasn't chemistry.

As for the original liquid from K Company... you know what, it's really good stuff, and it's not even diluted.

K Company, the urban world's wing, produces this stock solution. If it's not diluted, it can return a person to their original state, causing them to disappear... However, if diluted, it can cure any disease. After all, the essence of the stock solution is actually a "return" of a state.

The 1 milliliter in Lin Yi's hand is probably enough to dilute it into 100 portions.

However... Lin Yi admitted that he was a bit greedy.

How great would it be if this concentrate was K Company's Singularity Sorrow Item? Then we could produce the concentrate ourselves!

But unfortunately, the explosion rate of singularities must be incredibly low... The products of singularities are all classified as three lights. Lin Yi dare not imagine how difficult it is to obtain the real singularities.

With a long sigh, Lin Yi put away most of his things. Then, gathering his thoughts, he prepared to continue his construction work.

But then, he suddenly froze.

As the will of the city, he just received a piece of news, a piece of news he hadn't received in a long time...

Just now, someone stepped onto the land of the city.

Confused, he quickly turned his gaze towards the source of the message, and then his expression became strange. He was stunned for a moment as he looked at the white-haired woman on the ground, who crawled a few steps with almost all her strength, but eventually collapsed on the ground.

The person first crawled with difficulty, then, seemingly exhausted, collapsed after finally stepping onto the city ground. Before she fainted, Lin Yi vaguely saw that her eyes were bloodshot...

"Ghost Shark?"

Lin Yi murmured doubtfully.

This person is Laurentina.

Chapter 20:20 Laurentina takes the bait

Ghost Shark couldn't remember how he ran from that dark, damp and cold corner to this bright land.

Her memory was always interrupted and continued, her brain seemed to be a mess. She didn't know where she was, and there were not many things that remained in her mind.

All she knew was that she should go look for her lost companions...So Laurentina walked forward on her own, and every time she passed a place, she would always check to see if her companions were in some corner.

With this almost New Year's thought, Laurentina walked deeper and deeper.

It was at this time that she unknowingly arrived at the territory of Kazdel, and continued to move forward in a trance and awake, until today, she arrived at the land of the city.

She had originally intended to search for any traces of Skadi. Unfortunately, less than half an hour after arriving, Laurentina felt her consciousness gradually fade, unable to maintain clarity... Finally, after struggling to crawl a few steps, Laurentina finally managed to withstand the fading consciousness and passed out.

Only Lin Yi was left above the city, lost in thought.

Looking at the unconscious Laurentina, Lin Yi couldn't help but start thinking. And in this thought, an idea was born...

Do you want to rescue her?

Lin Yi thought to himself, and soon, he confirmed this idea in his heart.

Save, why not save?

It’s not so much a matter of liking the original work, but I’m mainly envious of the technical level of the Agor people.

This is the Agor! Every person is a hexagonal warrior! Not to mention their physical strength, the Agor people's education level is incredibly high, far higher than that of the Terran nations... If Lin Yi could get someone like this to settle down in the city first, then he would be blessed.

Someone knows how to use the laboratory, and there is one more thug. If this is not a high-level technical talent, what is it?

When he thought of this, Lin Yi felt that Laurentina in front of him had to be saved.

He still had a lot of room for improvement in that lab. The city was currently in dire need of basic materials, and Lin Yi hoped to have this lab produce some technology that could be used at this stage. Simply relying on card draws wouldn't be enough. At least during the initial transition period, a technical team was necessary.

As for how to save Laurentina... Lin Yi recalled Laurentina's condition.

He was injected with a large amount of liquid Originium, so his consciousness is not normal, right?

simple!

Looking at the ampoule of K Company's concentrate in his warehouse, Lin Yi's mouth curled up into a smile.

With this thing, are you still worried that it can't cure a ghost shark like you?

Want to know more about status backtracking?

After quickly diluting the ampoule's original liquid a hundred times, Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, took out ten drops, and asked the pioneer to quickly rush to the ghost shark's location and bring her to this cabin.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner. Twenty minutes later, Laurentina arrived at Lin Yi's room.

...........................

When Laurentina woke up again, she was greeted by an unfamiliar ceiling. With some difficulty, she shielded her head from the light with her hands. Then, she saw a handsome gray-haired boy wiping a test tube nearby. For a moment, she was stunned.

Then, a soothing sensation spread through her body. Laurentina was stunned for a moment before pinching her thigh, as if trying to use the pain to wake herself up.

A rare moment of clarity...but why did the feeling that my brain was being oppressed by something and was wandering between clarity and madness suddenly disappear?

Feeling the unprecedented clarity in her mind, Laurentina was a little confused for a moment. But then, she suddenly froze.

The liquid Originium in my body...disappeared?

Laurentina sat up in near-surprise, then saw the young man before her had already sealed the test tube. Inside was a bright yellow, high-purity liquid Originium, which glowed intoxicatingly under the light.

Looking at this scene, Laurentina was a little dazed at first, but at this moment, the boy turned around, looked at Laurentina and smiled.

"Are you awake? How are you? How do you feel now?"

“You… saved me…?”

Laurentina asked with some difficulty.

"Yeah. When I arrived, I happened to see you fainted, so I saved you. How does it feel to not have any Originium particles in your body?"

Lin Yi processed the Originium in his hand and then asked casually, "Originium is something that needs to be preserved well. Save more. It might be useful later."

What if it could be exchanged for madness?

"Honestly... that's pretty good. How did you do that?"

The feeling of going completely crazy no longer surged up. Laurentina smiled, her fangs showing, and asked Lin Yi.

"A secret. I have some special techniques that can cure oripathy."

Lin Yi said this calmly, and Laurentina didn't seem to care. While the technology on the surface could cure oripathy, her arrogance, almost ingrained in her instincts, made her subconsciously ignore this feature.

"Hello, what's your name? Where is this place?"

"You can call this place a city. As for me, you can call me the ruler, the manager of this no-man's land."

Lin Yi said with a smile. Laurentina couldn't help but smile and said:

"The Controller...it's quite a nickname."

The tone was quite sharp.

"It's funny."

Lin Yi ignored her, knowing that this was Laurentina's way of speaking. For him, the most important thing now was how to keep Laurentina...

Fortunately, he has already left a backup plan.

"Hmm... But it doesn't matter if I call you by that name. Master, have you ever seen a girl..."

Laurentina propped her chin on her hand, tapping slowly with her fingertips. Then, she described Skadi's appearance to Lin Yi. Lin Yi just shook his head.

"I haven't seen it. If I see it in the future, I will keep an eye out for you."

"Tsk...what a shame."

Laurentina clicked her tongue, then sighed.

Then, she raised her head, looked at Lin Yi, and asked:

"So, what kind of reward do you want? You saved my life, helped me solve the huge problem of liquid Originium, and even patiently explained everything to me... It's only right and proper that I should give you a reward."

"So, tell me, whatever you want, as long as it's something I can do, I can agree to it."

Lin Yi continued to smile as he listened to Laurentina's seemingly exaggerated promise. He knew it wasn't a lie. The Agors truly had the ability, and they also loved raising smaller nations on land.

Apart from being a bit arrogant, Agor is simply a blessing to the land countries.

but……

"Let's talk about this later. Once you've recovered a little, we can talk in detail."

Lin Yi replied with a smile, and Laurentina clicked her tongue and stopped talking.

It means you owe someone a favor... This is the most troublesome.

Laurentina raised her head and began to look around the room. But then, her eyes were drawn to a small object on the table...

It was a wooden sculpture depicting someone's final moments. The moment she saw it, Laurentina's gaze became fixed on the statue.

When Lin Yi caught Laurentina's gaze, his face remained silent, but joy was already rising in his heart.

Hooked!

Laurentina took the bait!

Chapter 21:21 Laurentina Stays in the City

Laurentina stared at the wooden sculpture, lost in thought for a moment. Seeing this, Lin Yi turned around and ignored her.

He understood why Laurentina had fallen into this state. Laurentina was a person with considerable artistic talent. Her greatest hobby was sculpture.

As for the works from the Ring Finger… although the score was only D, which might seem a bit average to urban people, it was just within the acceptable range for Terrans, especially since Laurentina herself was a slightly crazy artist.

Therefore, it was completely within Lin Yi's expectations that she would be attracted by this wood sculpture.

Therefore, Lin Yi ignored Laurentina and simply turned around to return to his current task. Currently, he was testing the Lobotomy Company's standard pistol to see if there was anything special about it.

Laurentina remained motionless, staring at the wooden sculpture for more than half an hour.

She seemed completely absorbed in the imagery created by the wood carving. Her own inherent madness made it easier for her to understand its meaning. Simply by looking at it, she could almost feel the oppression of death, the rebuke and despair of her own predicament...

Laurentina was practically enchanted by the atmosphere. Half an hour later, she suddenly woke up, gasping for breath, a drop of sweat trickling down her forehead, but her expression still revealed a sense of nostalgia and recollection. Her gaze reluctantly shifted from the wood carving to look at Lin Yi.

"Did you carve this wood carving?"

Laurentina looked at Lin Yi and asked excitedly.

If you can meet someone here who has the same hobbies as you and has such high attainments, you will be really lucky.

Lin Yi glanced at Laurentina, put down the gun, and said with a smile:

"Of course not. I'm just a casual person with a little knowledge of art. This was given to me by a friend of mine, who is probably still traveling far away at the moment."

Of course, he couldn't claim he had painted it himself. He wanted to leave Laurentina with a sense of anticipation, to make her itch and genuinely curious about the wood carving's origins. Only then would Laurentina stay in the city, waiting for the woodcarver to return.

This person was, of course, a figment of his imagination. But it didn't matter. Lin Yi only needed to keep Laurentina for a while. As for the rest, there were naturally ways to keep Laurentina. As long as there was enough time, it would be fine.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi looked at Laurentina with a smile on his face. Laurentina, on hearing this, couldn't help but sigh.

"What a shame... But you said you understand art?"

Laurentina looked at Lin Yi and asked with narrowed eyes.

"So, in your opinion, how is this wood carving...?"

Having just seen such a wonderful thing, Laurentina seemed to be eager to talk to others.

It’s so convenient once you’re hooked… You don’t have to do anything yourself, the topic will naturally continue.

Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and then he slowly said?

"Me? In my opinion... this wood carving is just ordinary."

As soon as Lin Yi said this, Laurentina couldn't help but frowned and looked at Lin Yi.

"What did you say?"

To a normal person, this sentence is a provocation, questioning Laurentina's artistic aesthetics.

She didn't hit him directly, but was restraining herself out of respect for her savior.

But Lin Yi just waved his hand and said:

"I've seen better ones than this... This piece was created by a friend of mine from the Ring Finger. He has a lot of work, but this one was given to me because he wasn't very satisfied with it. Within the Ring Finger, this piece received a D rating."

Lin Yi said lightly. After hearing his description, Laurentina couldn't help but be stunned.
