The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

Dark red blood bubbles were gurgling from Cheng Shengnan's palms, and the boiling blood armor slowly began to extend from his palms to his arms, and then to his shoulders. Soon the whole "person" was in a boiling state. Although it looked weird and scary, Cheng Shengnan said that he did not feel any pain.

Xiao Qi had already completed a comprehensive scan: "Master, the condition of the secondary armor is not caused by external forces. According to the test results, it is more like being affected by the glowing dream fragments in the mistress' body, trying to merge with the body to absorb the strange energy."

According to Xiao Qi's detection, when Cheng Shengnan was wearing the secondary armor and capturing the glowing dream fragments, an "assimilation" effect occurred, causing her to absorb the power of the dream fragments with the help of the secondary armor in her human body. The red mist armor is still weird in nature. After sensing the weird power of the dream fragments in Cheng Shengnan's body, it wanted to devour and fuse them, which led to the current situation.

After listening to Xiao Qi's explanation, Shen Ge had a general understanding of Cheng Shengnan's situation. He obviously did not expect such a situation to occur.

There are only two choices now. One is to watch the secondary armor assimilate with Cheng Shengnan and let Cheng Shengnan become a monster in this way.

The other method is to use the monster sample from Yoona and the serum developed by Li Xiang to try to remove Cheng Shengnan and the secondary armor.

"Captain Yang, report the situation to the liaison director. I will take Shengnan and Yoona to Teacher Li Xiang's laboratory." Shen Ge picked up Cheng Shengnan by the waist, raised his hand and rolled Yoona, then jumped with the two of them, and disappeared into the dark night sky on his strange leather boots.

Li Xiang's teacher has his own laboratory and team in Dajing. Although this place has become an "empty city" after being pulled to the Quanlongshan base by Li Xiang, the equipment is still there. In addition, Shen Ge gave Li Xiang a lot of research materials before entering the dream world, so he must be in seclusion in the laboratory now.

Shen Ge asked Xiao Qi to call Li Xiang. It took several tries before the call was answered. When the call was answered, the other party started complaining, obviously because Shen Ge had disturbed his experiment.

When Shen Ge told Li Xiang about Cheng Shengnan's situation, the latter immediately became interested: "The strange energy fragments of the collapsed world? You still have such a thing hidden?"

Shen Ge couldn't explain it to Li Xiang for a while, so he took the two of them to the laboratory and asked Li Xiang to check Xiao Qi's test data.

At this time, the fusion of Cheng Shengnan and the secondary armor became more and more serious. The blood-rotten armor on some parts of his arms had already merged into his flesh and blood, which looked very creepy.

What was even more terrifying was that the flesh on his arm was torn apart, and the red mist armor drilled into his arm like a bug, but Cheng Shengnan didn't feel any pain.

What Shen Ge could not understand the most was that Yang Yuxin could not touch the dream fragments at all, so why were the dream fragments absorbed by Cheng Shengnan?

You have to know that the monster energy has a very high degree of rejection of humans, and "fusion" is impossible without the blessing of monster cells.

After checking Cheng Shengnan's arm, Li Xiang said, "It is not clear what caused the fusion, but the situation is not optimistic. We must take immediate measures to stop the fusion. Otherwise, when the secondary armor is completely fused, it will be too late to separate it."

Cheng Shengnan's current condition has already made her half a monster due to the influence of the para-armor. Once the strange cells in the para-armor successfully fuse with her cells, even if the fusion rate is less than 1%, based on the current conclusions of monster research, there is no way to restore her to being human.

Fortunately, after being scanned by Xiao Qi, it was found that the secondary armor was still mainly absorbing the strange energy of the dream fragments, rather than trying its best to take over Cheng Shengnan's body.

"Ms. Yoona, the serum we developed last time is gone. I now need to extract some of your blood and monster samples. Please cooperate with me." Li Xiang picked up the tools and looked at Yoona and said.

This was not the first time that Yoona had cooperated with the monster research team headed by Li Xiang from the Rong City branch. She rolled up her sleeves with ease, with an attitude that said, "Feel free to pick me up, you're welcome."

It would take more than a minute or two for Li Xiang to extract Yoona's monster sample, and Cheng Shengnan's situation is urgent.

Weird power is a weird energy and also a weird "food". The Red Mist Armor is essentially a "fusion" weird, so it cannot be immune to the temptation of dream fragments.

After capturing the dream fragments last time, the Red Mist Armor ate them to its heart's content, leaving Shen Ge with a pile of dim fragments. This shows how strong the attraction of the dream fragments is to the Red Mist Armor.

Shen Ge tried to transfer the strange energy in Cheng Shengnan's body through the transfer ability of "misfortune", but unfortunately, he failed.

The special ability could not stop the spread of the strange energy, and the strange domain could not stop the fusion of the secondary armor. Shen Ge thought of the last solution -

System-provided recovery items.

After Shen Ge's "verification", it has been confirmed that these recovery items were transferred from the surrounding areas or strange spaces by the system through transfer capabilities.

The strange space is just the tip of the iceberg of the dream world, which means that the "extracted" recovery items may be the product of a certain ending, or they may be research for the "future".

But none of this matters. What matters is that the recovery products are developed based on strange entities, and can play a role in recovery when humans reject strange energy.

This has been verified by Shen Ge in previous missions when he used recovery items on "pendants" such as Fang Mingyue.

Therefore, Shen Ge's first thought was to use the "Internal Injury Healing Pill" and the "Healing Bandage" to treat Cheng Shengnan. Even if he couldn't stop the fusion of the secondary armor, as long as he could delay the symptoms to a certain extent, he could wait until Li Xiang extracted the monster sample.

After Cheng Shengnan took the "internal injury healing pill" and had a "healing bandage" wrapped around his body, Xiaoqi scanned him again and the result showed that he had successfully delayed the fusion of the secondary armor.

The main reason was that the recovery speed provided by the "Internal Injury Healing Pill" successfully prevented the tearing of the secondary armor, but it did not prevent the secondary armor from absorbing the strange energy in Cheng Shengnan's body. Compared with devouring Cheng Shengnan's holy body, the strange energy in her body could arouse the secondary armor's interest more.

Cheng Shengnan captured a total of six glowing dream fragments. According to Xiaoqi's detection, two of them should have been directly swallowed by the secondary armor, and the remaining six were integrated into Cheng Shengnan's body.

In other words, Shen Ge and Li Xiang had to find a way to solve the fusion problem before the remaining four fragments' strange energy was completely absorbed by the secondary armor. The two of them were busy for almost two hours. On the other side, Yang Yuxin also found Deng Yuqi in the second part. After learning about the incident and Cheng Shengnan's problem, she also rushed over without stopping.

When Deng Yuqi and Yang Yuxin rushed to the laboratory, they saw Cheng Shengnan lying on the operating table, wrapped in bandages. Although one of her arms was still the size of a normal adult's, it was covered with fist-sized blood clots, which was very horrifying.

The other hand had expanded to about three times its size, some blood clots had burst, and the blood had dyed the bandage blood red.

The arms were the most severely altered, but the physical changes were minor. Li Xiang guessed that this might have a lot to do with direct contact with dream fragments.

Several people were busy helping Li Xiang, and by the afternoon of the next day, Li Xiang successfully extracted the monster sample from Yoona's body and injected it into the para-armor.

The reason why it was injected into the para-armor instead of Cheng Shengnan's body was because the original intention was to prevent the fusion of the para-armor and Cheng Shengnan, not to turn her into a monster.

The monster sample can transform the secondary armor into a "fusion monster". In this way, it will only work harder to absorb the strange energy in Cheng Shengnan's body. At this time, Shen Ge can try to peel off the secondary armor.

The process of waiting for the monster sample to take effect was very long. It was not until late at night of the next day that the secondary armor was successfully absorbed. However, Li Xiang tried several methods to peel off the secondary armor but failed. Shen Ge also cooperated in many ways, but all ended in failure.

After testing, Xiao Qi found that there was not much strange energy left in Cheng Shengnan's body, with only about half a fragment left at most.

Shen Ge had to face a choice: to continue to increase the risk and inject more reflective fragments into Cheng Shengnan's body, or to find a way to solve the problem before the strange energy of half a fragment was exhausted.

Xiao Qi suggested: "Master, why don't you let me control the Red Mist Armor and try to fuse it with the secondary armor for a second time and forcibly recycle it?"

Shen Ge and Li Xiang discussed it and thought that this was the most likely way to prevent, or at least delay, the sub-armor from integrating into Cheng Shengnan's body, so they agreed to Xiao Qi's proposal.

Classmate Xiao Qi controlled the red mist armor to leave Shen Ge's body. This was the first time that Shen Ge took off the red mist armor. It felt like he was being stripped of his coat.

The rotten blood of the Red Mist Armor formed an "empty shell" that covered the outer layer of Cheng Shengnan's secondary armor and began to devour and fuse the secondary armor.

The next second, the entire red mist armor was boiling, and it was impossible to tell whether it was the main body or the sub-armor. A huge boiling blood ball formed on the entire operating table.

"Student Xiaoqi!" Shen Ge stood beside the operating table, ready to deploy the Strange Domain at any time. Once Student Xiaoqi was pulled in, he would have no choice but to use the Strange Domain to try to peel him off.

Fortunately, Xiao Qi soon replied, "Master, the secondary armor's resistance is much stronger than expected. Although it is impossible to forcibly recover the secondary armor, the good news is that the powerful energy of the main body has aroused the interest of the secondary armor. It has given up the fusion with the mistress and is trying to fuse with the main body."

After hearing Xiao Qi's answer, Shen Ge and others breathed a sigh of relief. This was indeed good news, because after the secondary armor was fused with the Red Mist Armor, it was actually its derivative. It was like a gecko with its tail cut off. Even if the tail became a spirit, it would not be easy for it to devour the main body and become a new gecko.

Li Xiang looked at the data flashing rapidly on the instrument beside him, and took the opportunity to control the instrument to collect information. At the same time, he asked, "Xiao Qi successfully controlled the Red Mist Armor to complete a fusion before, and I believe he is very familiar with this process. In my opinion, when the deputy armor gives up the temptation to devour Director Cheng, it is a good opportunity for Xiao Qi to fight back."

"I understand. I'm trying to release the red mist energy to lure it away from the secondary armor. This process will take a lot of time." Xiao Qi replied.

Li Xiang said: "I will help you through the detector... Oh, you are the most advanced AI system, with huge computing power, you can do many things at the same time even in this situation, so you don't need my help. Then I will try to configure two more monster samples in case of emergency."

Until noon, Xiao Qi had not completed the removal of the secondary armor, but he succeeded in preventing it from continuing to devour Cheng Shengnan's body. Her arms could be clearly seen to have returned to normal size in the huge blood cells, and there were no signs of disease on her body.

Li Xiang lamented that it was a pity that they were in Dajing now, and the entire experimental process was restricted. If it were in the Rong City branch, with the assistance of the team of teachers and junior sisters, the time for preparing the monster samples could be shortened by at least half, and Cheng Shengnan's problem might have been solved long ago.

However, it is impossible to transfer now. First of all, this "blood ball" state is too conspicuous. Even if the headquarters does not stop it, there are so many foreign anti-ghost agents participating in the Asian Anti-Ghost Research Conference. No one can guarantee that they will not be tempted.

The only way is to let Jiang Peiwen's team come to Dajing. However, even if the people come, the instruments and equipment are still in Rong City, so they can't play a big role.

The best solution Li Xiang could think of was to try to control Cheng Shengnan's situation first, at least make her look no different from an ordinary person on the surface, and then let Deng Yuqi secretly transfer her back.

Of course, it would be great if Xiaoqi could successfully solve the problem of the secondary armor through the Red Mist Armor.

At about noon, Deng Yuqi went out to answer a phone call, and then returned to the laboratory with a slightly serious expression: "Shen Ge, Fang Mingyue found out about Director Chen. It is said that he led the team to accept a secret mission assigned by the higher-ups, so the entire team is in a state of confidentiality. Although what happened in the 2nd department has been reported, it seems that someone above is trying to protect Director Chen, and the investigation is not going smoothly."

"However, foreign anti-ghost organizations and agents who came to participate in the Asian Anti-Ghost Research Conference have arrived one after another, and they are planning to hold a welcome party tonight. When Fang Mingyue was investigating Sakura's kidnapping of Fenghua Youcai, she found out that Sakura would announce a research report on the strangeness of the ancestor at this research conference."

"Manager Chen seems to be very interested in this research information, so he sent his men to investigate Yinghua. Fang Mingyue originally wanted to follow this line to investigate Manager Chen, but he was very alert and cut off contact in advance. However, since he is so concerned about the strange information about the ancestor, he might take action at this welcome party."

"Fang Mingyue's intention is that we should also attend the dinner, and she and I will look for clues in the open, while you will conduct the investigation in the dark."

After hearing this, Shen Ge fell into deep thought. Now he was sure that Manager Chen and Doctor Chen must have some connection. Finding him meant that he could follow up on the Monster Association and find out the truth of that year.

Cheng Shengnan's condition is relatively stable at the moment, and since Xiao Qi is the main operator, he can't help if he stays here. (End of this chapter)
