No strange things are allowed to evolve!

"Think about it, our abilities are useless here; we can't even beat a falcon."

But the Falcon seemed to have no confidence at all in dealing with the Sand Demon.

If he, who had survived two missions, was like this, then it goes without saying that others are even more likely to be like this.

So I was actually a little discouraged just now, feeling that the Sand Demon might be an insurmountable opponent for us.

However, it now seems that while the falcon is strong, it does not represent the ultimate limit.

Then I felt like there was still a chance.

Upon hearing this, Huang Helou was taken aback: "So, you deliberately provoked the falcon in order to find another way?"

"Oh, no, I didn't mean to provoke him, it's just that he can't take a joke."

Jiang Shu calmly explained:

"He's taking it a little too seriously."

"..."

Jiang Shu indeed overlooked the possibility that the falcon's thinking might differ from that of a normal person due to its unique environment.

He wasn't just serious; you could even say he was somewhat extreme.

If there is even the slightest instability, his first reaction is to nip it in the bud, leaving no room for maneuver.

Therefore, Jiang Shu's carefully prepared explanation for his provocation was completely useless.

Just then, the lolicon asked curiously, "Why did you target the Sand Demon?"

"For love and peace."

Jiang Shu answered without hesitation:

"Although we have conflicts with the guards on the vehicle, we should keep things separate. We still want to continue to contribute to humanity and give our insignificant strength."

Therefore, if we successfully escape, we still plan to continue our operation, continuing to target the Sand Demon and creating a new oasis.

"So that's how it is. You actually... I thought you'd hijack the entire Zodiac Train after you escaped. Sigh, I really..."

The lolicon's tone underwent a subtle change.

Jiang Shu could hear a hint of admiration in his voice.

The Yellow Crane Tower next door remained silent.

He was afraid that he would burst out laughing as soon as he opened his mouth.

Noticing the changes in the lolicon due to his habitual behavior, Jiang Shu couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

If only falcons were this easy to handle.

It's rare to encounter someone who's been forced into a relationship and has feelings for you from the start, let alone someone who's initially hostile.

No wonder he has such a world-weary face...

……

That night.

Several people dressed in white lab coats arrived as scheduled.

They quietly entered the cell and took out their respective tools.

The entire process was completely silent.

The man in the lead approached the individual cubicle where Jiang Shu and Huang Helou were and reached out his hand.

The next moment, his hand began to dry out, and then cracked like parched earth.

The cracks multiplied until the entire palm turned into distinct grains of sand, at which point the transformation stopped.

Then, his fingers, which were originally blurry but still somewhat formed, began to intertwine and actually transformed into a key, which was inserted into the prison door imbued with the power of the desert.

Click!

As soon as the cell door was opened, the two men behind him immediately used specially made forks to stab Jiang Shu.

One hand held his neck in place, and the other held his waist in place.

The same was true on the other side; the other two also firmly controlled the Yellow Crane Tower.

Seeing that the two were controlled by the fork, which also contained the power of the desert, the leader was relieved: "These two are much more dangerous than the other prisoners we've had before. They even dared to provoke Lord Falcon during the day and openly attack. They are true madmen and we can't let our guard down."

"Yes, Doctor."

At his command, two more people went forward and put on restraints similar to those worn by mental patients on Jiang Shu and Huang Helou.

Seeing that they had made such a commotion and the two of them still had their eyes closed, the doctor shook his head dismissively: "They still haven't reacted. Even if these people became guards, I wouldn't feel at ease with them. They might make a greater contribution by becoming materials now."

It was at this moment.

“You’re wrong.” Huang Helou opened his eyes: “It’s just that we already know we’re wrong, so we don’t intend to resist.”

"Admit your mistake?" The doctor sneered. "Don't you think it's too late for you to admit your mistake now?"

“We know this, so we are prepared to accept any punishment the organization may impose on us, and we will... fully cooperate.”

The Yellow Crane Tower's serious gaze, so earnest, inspires confidence.

Having witnessed countless instances of people lying and feigning misery before their deaths, the PhD simply viewed this as a strategic retreat.

“Then I’ll take it seriously.” The doctor smiled and said, then stared intently into Huang Helou’s eyes, as if trying to see any panic in them.

But it didn't.

Is that really what you think...? The doctor was somewhat surprised.

Thinking about this, the doctor felt a sense of novelty.

Then he looked at Jiang Shu.

"You too?"

But Jiang Shu did not answer him.

The doctor frowned and gestured to the person who was controlling Jiang Shu to check the situation.

Upon receiving the instruction, the man immediately moved closer to Jiang Shu, lowered his head, put his ear to Jiang Shu's mouth, and listened while nodding from time to time.

"What did he say?"

The doctor asked.

The man stood up straight: "Reporting, Doctor, he didn't say anything; he's really asleep."

The doctor narrowed his eyes: "Then why are you nodding?"

“I…” the person explained somewhat embarrassedly, “I have a bit of a people-pleasing personality. I tend to nod whenever I hear someone speak, whether I understand them or not.”

"..."

While the doctor was speechless and the others were glancing sideways, Jiang Shu suddenly woke up.

"what?"

He spoke with a voice full of wisdom.

The Yellow Crane Tower next door was stunned for a moment: "No, you're really asleep?"

"Ah," Jiang Shu responded, "What did you all say?"

Taking a deep breath, the professor asked, "Are you all the same?"

"Is everything agreed upon?" Jiang Shu nodded: "Yes, we are all the same, neither resisting nor refusing, but I have to make it clear in advance that my acceptance does not mean I agree."

The doctor remained silent for a moment, selectively ignoring Jiang Shu's probing words, and then, whether testing them or deciding to give them some preferential treatment based on their attitude, it was unclear.

In short, he asked, "What are your requirements? If they're not excessive, I can consider fulfilling them."

Upon hearing this, Huanghelou felt an unexpected surge of joy.

good chance!

But at this moment...

"I want to have a nice meal," Jiang Shu said, and immediately started ordering: "Do you have cilantro and lamb dumplings?"

“No,” the doctor shook his head, “but the food cart can make it.”

"No, no, wait a minute." Huang Helou said anxiously, "At a time like this, you're still thinking about eating dumplings?"

"It was just a small thing," Jiang Shu said.

The professor looked at the Yellow Crane Tower: "Then what do you want?"

“I…” Huang Helou said slowly, “I don’t want to use anesthetics.”

"Oh?" The doctor smiled, his eyes suddenly becoming meaningful: "Why?"

Huang Helou said seriously, "Because anesthetics can affect the nerves, and I don't want anesthetics to affect the normal functioning of my brain."

Before the doctor could even speak, Jiang Shu scoffed, "You're about to lose your mobility, and you might even die. What's the point of having your brain think? Are you trying to write a brief history of time?"

"?" Huang Helou pursed his lips first, then couldn't help but grin: "Damn it..."

Didn't you tell me to say that?

Shouldn't you be saying, "I'm the same way!" at this point?

Seeing the two of them putting on this act, the doctor laughed heartily: "Speaking of which, how did you know I was going to give you anesthesia?"

Yellow Crane Tower: "..."

Jiang Shu: "'???`"

Seeing Jiang Shu's expression, the doctor understood everything.

"I knew it! Why were they so cooperative..."

Do you want to learn from those who came before you, rely on willpower to get through it, and then use that strength to turn the tide when you are clear-headed?

The idea was good, but no one had ever succeeded, and even they wouldn't have told me from the beginning not to use anesthesia.

Logically speaking, you shouldn't know what you're about to encounter, right?

At this point, the doctor glanced, intentionally or unintentionally, at the cell where the lolicon was located:

"It seems... someone said something unnecessary to you, didn't they?"

Upon hearing this, the lolicon was terrified and tightly closed his eyes, pretending to be dead.

Yellow Crane Tower, belatedly realizing the danger, also inwardly cried out in alarm.

Oh no! He's really been corrupted by Jiang Shumo's influence and his brain is acting up! How could he not have noticed something so important?!

But the doctor didn't pursue the matter further, or rather, he didn't need to pursue it any further.

He's already become a lolicon, so targeting him further will only result in his death, which might even be a relief for him. There's really no need to waste time on him.

But Huang Helou and Jiang Shu had deceived his feelings, and he could never let it go so easily.

Therefore, the doctor simply said to Huang Helou and Jiang Shu, "Didn't you want to obtain extraordinary desert power? Fine, then I will give you extraordinary desert power."

I will infuse you with the most extreme desert power that the human body has ever been able to withstand, and... a little more, just a little bit more, like the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

The doctor said calmly:

"As for the anesthetic, you don't want to take it, but I'm going to give it to you anyway."

Moreover, I will try my best to keep you alive as the price for your clever tricks in front of me. I will make you watch your cleverness crumble before your own eyes, and then become loyal cogs in the machine, forever supplying the train with your life force, until you have no strength left to spare.

Huang Helou's breathing became rapid.

He was extremely nervous and extremely frustrated.

Damn it... This is truly a mistake that will haunt me forever!

Jiang Shu also looked worried.

"Should I still make dumplings?"

The researchers who had restrained the two looked at Jiang Shu with a deep sense of respect.

The doctor smiled slightly and asked in return, "What do you think?"

"I guess there aren't any left."
