I really only stop

----------

"Ah!"

"Have a cold? Do you want to come to my place for treatment?"

Looking worriedly at Lu Xi who was rubbing his nose, Yuxia opened her soft embrace towards him:

"I heard about Dr. Nanding's deeds before, and I also want to try a treatment method that does not rely on holy magic. According to records, a cold can be cured as long as you sleep comfortably in a warm place—— I’m not bragging, I’m still very confident in my body temperature!”

No no no, you just want to hug me.

Although yearning for Miss Saint's soft and fragrant hug, Nana and Celica were sitting not far away, even with Lu Xi's face, he was too embarrassed to make such a coquettish behavior.

"It's okay. I don't feel like I have a cold. Someone must be talking about me behind my back."

Shaking his head with difficulty in Yuxia's slightly disappointed eyes, recalling the information that the undercover girl told him in the morning, Lu Xi specially reminded the three at home:

"By the way, the world is not peaceful recently. If you see a sneaky old man in a cloak on the road, you must run as far as you can. You must not run to talk to him, remember?"

"Old man?"

If it is said that Yushia usually does not raise any objections to Lu Xi's words, then Zelika and Miss Saintess are completely two extremes—no, her eyes lit up immediately after hearing this :

"Could it be the relatives of Ruoweixi who have been separated for many years and heard that you have become rich, and then deliberately came here to ask for money?"

"I think you have watched too many soap dramas. You are usually so childish. Only at this time are your thoughts so realistic."

Pushing the messy Zerika back onto the sofa with one finger, Lu Xi rolled his eyes:

"Let's not say that I don't have such relatives. Even if I did, they would never be able to find me."

God knows how far this world is from the earth. My relatives in the past wanted to find me. Maybe it was after the establishment of the Galactic Human Federation.

"Well... I don't go out very often, so I shouldn't meet such an old man, right?"

Noticing Lu Xi's gaze, the soft girl tilted her head and thought seriously:

"Recently, even the materials for making dolls can be ordered directly from His Majesty the Emperor and delivered to my door, and Lu Xi can help me buy the dishes—eh? If you think about it this way, don't I need to leave the house at all?"

What kind of house declaration is this? !Under the doting of the puppet and us, is there any sign that the soft girl will plunge headlong into the abyss of her own house guard?

How did you say that famous saying?There is no future like this!

After quickly exchanging glances with Miss Saint, Lu Xi grabbed Nana's arm:

"Nai Nai, let's go, let's buy ingredients for tonight's dinner."

"Eh?"

The soft girl seems to have developed the habit of staying at home, and the expression on her face is rarely reluctant:

"But I have asked a doll to buy it, and I don't want to go out..."

"..."

I am terminally ill.

Lu Xi was silent for a while, and his tone was firm:

"Go to the neighboring town to buy."

"Eh?!"

Chapter 563 Miracle Haimo is online

Osiris, Basement and Lucy-Osiris Joint Food Research Center.

After Alice's miraculous effect and Lu Xi's secret help, Haimer, whose body is no longer afraid of bacterial erosion, naturally does not need to wear the bulky and stuffy bird's beak mask—to be honest, he is very gentle after taking off the mask. Yes, it looks like a refreshing youth. If it weren't for this young demon's love for Alice, he would probably be a popular character who can be sought after by big sisters.

"Thanks to the all-round technical support provided by Lord Lu Xi, my understanding of [you] has gone far beyond the 'murderous plague'. Moreover, unlike when I was a plague warlock, the products made by myself can I feel like my life is fulfilled by being recognized by other races."

With some nostalgia, his fingertips slid across the beak mask that was no longer needed, and Haimer whispered softly to the pink bottle in front of him:

"You can't create anything of value by plundering and trampling on it. On the contrary, you can make your life more meaningful by bringing something of value to others."

"..."

Alice in the bottle seemed to be slightly brighter, as if agreeing with Haimo's words.

"—Okay, this is the end of the chat, I still have my own work."

Reluctantly hanging Alice back around his neck, Haimo stretched and walked slowly to several petri dishes at the other end of the room:

"Well, the development of new varieties of yogurt is going very well. Just add the right amount of dizzy bacteria to yogurt, and you can create a harmless alternative to alcohol. Your adventurers should be very helpful—come back and tell Lord Lucy about this proposal!"

There are infinite possibilities in bacteria, and Haimo, who has the ability to freely catalyze its mutation and manipulate them with his body, after being opened up by Lu Xi, the value he can unearth is absolutely huge.

It's just that, while enjoying the benefits of Haimo's flashes of inspiration from time to time, Lu Xi still needs to strictly supervise him-after all, even if the intention is good, Haimo will not pay attention if he doesn't pay attention. It may create an extremely terrifying existence.

It's like 'a bacterium that can turn water into fine wine with just one drop' - if this kind of stuff is accidentally spilled into the river, the damage it will bring is absolutely catastrophic, even worse than that of Haimer The deadly bacteria made when he was a plague warlock before added up to be even more terrifying.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Xi strictly forbids Haimer to take the bacteria he produced out of the basement specially encrypted by Nova without permission. As the owner of this industry, he will come here regularly every month Check it once, if you find something that is anti-human and anti-ecology like the one above, pack it up and give it to Miss Saintess for purification—just mix the petri dish with a lot of sundries and give it to her, anyway, everyone under the Holy Flame Equality, once the fire goes down, it will be handled without pollution.

Haimo himself has no objection to this way of handling it.Even if Lu Xi's great kindness to him in the Alice incident is temporarily put aside, the new ideas that Lu Xi brought to him are things that Hai Mo had never even dared to think of before.Sometimes he even had a little doubt. As a human being, how did Lu Xi's understanding of bacteria surpass that of the Batleys?

Could it be that Lord Lu Xi is the omniscient and omnipotent existence in the legend?

Shaking his head and temporarily putting his doubts behind him, Haimo's eyes continued to move, and turned to a piece of... tofu next to the yogurt petri dish:

"Sigh, the research on fermented bean curd still hasn't made much progress. Although the white product has been successfully accepted, there is still a long way to go to make the fermented bean curd that Mr. Lu Xi requested [red color, with rose aroma]. "

Master Lu Xi is good at everything, but sometimes he will propose such confusing work goals as fermented bean curd.With no background knowledge at all, Haimo could only find out what he needed from a large number of bacteria through auditions, and then intensify it through magic power to make it develop in the way Lucy wanted.

"Now that the basic fermented bean curd fungus has been formed, the next thing to do is to stimulate its red color variation."

Using his own special ability to 'grab' a cute fermented bean curd bacteria, Haimo looked at the shelf:

"I remember that there are bacteria that produce red pigment here, try to combine the two, can you - who?!"

With lightning speed, Haimer's originally empty hands popped out three small dark green test tubes between flips - obviously, the bacteria contained in them were not as gentle as the yogurt bacteria in the petri dish.

……nobody?

His eyes swept across the vast basement very quickly, and Haimo's original frown slightly relaxed.

That's right, this is a "high-secret area" additionally designated by Master Lu Xi, and Miss Nova is watching from the sky all day long. Even if there are adventurers who accidentally get lost here, it is absolutely impossible to enter the basement.

Thinking of how many arrangements Lu Xi had made to keep his demon in the human city, Haimo, who turned back to the test stand, put away the killing bacteria in his hand, and sighed somewhat self-deprecatingly:

"Being away from training and fighting for too long, I never thought my intuition would degenerate to this place—"

【…】

Highmore's sigh stopped abruptly, not because of anything else, but because of what he saw now.

Animal skin apron, short stature, I don't know if it was intentional or not, carved into the expression of [Pit mouth.JPG].

Highmore swore he was right.

On the test bench that was originally empty except for the petri dish, a lifeless doll unexpectedly appeared out of thin air!

--------------

... It's scary to say the least.

Think about such a scene, in a laboratory that is empty except for you, suddenly there is a puppet with its mouth curled up, without any movement, just watching you silently on the test bench, surrounded by all kinds of dolls. The equipment used in the experiment—this scene can be used directly as a storyboard for a horror movie, okay? !

Alice's cold fingers grasped Alice's chest in an instant. Haimo, who found a sense of security from this action, swallowed hard, trying to find a reasonable explanation for the scene in front of him that went beyond common sense:

"Wh-whose prank is this? Oh oh! It must be Master Lu Xi! Really~ last time I just gave him a bacterium that can make countless black cockroaches pounce on the user in front of him. Well, you even deliberately used the doll to scare me—Master Lu Xi, you won, I won’t make that kind of weird thing again next time!”

The further he spoke, the more trembling Haimo's voice became.Because, Lu Xi didn't come out to greet him holding a sign of "Tricky Big Success" as he imagined.

Difficult, isn't it Master Lu Xi?

So what exactly is this doll——? !

Under the gaze of Haimo who was about to cry, the lip curling puppet trembled unnaturally.

Then, it slowly opened its eyes.

Chapter 564 Companionship and the Courage You Give

"...So, you can't talk, right?"

Tremblingly, he handed over a cup of hot tea to the old man doll, seeing that the other party didn't pay any attention to his intentions, Haimo was really anxious to cry:

"You, what did you come here for? Could it be that Master Lu Xi has some new instructions?"

【…】

Hearing Lu Xi's name, the puppet finally reacted.He slowly shifted his gaze to the fermented bean curd sample on the other side, staring at it silently without speaking.

This puppet is interested in fermented bean curd?

Really not sure about the origin of the other party, Haimo could only tentatively introduce:

"This is a newly developed trial product that has not yet been launched. I am currently stuck on the technical difficulty of how to make it red in color and smell like roses... Eh?"

【…】

Under Haimo's surprised gaze, the puppet slowly raised its right hand, and a strong bloody smell emerged from it—the next moment, the original white fermented bean curd quickly turned red as if soaked in blood.

After doing all this, the puppet turned to look at the stunned Haimer, as if waiting for his response.

This, this means helping me?

Fearing that his disrespect would offend this puppet who came from nowhere, Haimo hurried to the fermented bean curd sample, taking advantage of the fact that he was no longer afraid of germs, he directly took a small spoon to dig a little bit into his mouth inside:

"—It really smells like roses! The color has also turned red!"

The previous fear has been completely replaced by the enthusiasm for research, and Haimo, who feels that he has witnessed a miracle, quickly looks back at the puppet with curled lips:

"Master, how did you do it?"

【…】

Glancing at Haimo with disdain, the lip curling puppet stretched out its hand again, and made a [look] gesture towards Haimo.

Look?

Haimo looked at the palm of the puppet's mouth as he said, and the 'thing' on it was also very familiar - it was the cute fermented bean curd bacteria from before.

It's just... why do I feel that it has changed in subtle ways?

Reaching out his hand to take the bean curd bacteria that was subtly different from his memory, Haimo looked over and over again, and finally found something strange on the top of its head:

"This petal structure looks familiar...Miss Nova, can you help me look up the encyclopedia information of the center based on my description?"

"[Of course, Mr. Highmore, the chief researcher.]"

Nova's phantom appeared next to Haimo, and a burst of data flashed, and she reported what Haimo needed to know:

"According to your description, this should be a body part specially used by a monster called [Rose Essence] to produce the aroma of roses. According to the central data, this monster is mainly distributed in the warm forests in the south. It’s quite rare nearby, and fire-type attacks are quite beneficial to it—is there anything else you need to know?”

"No, thank you very much."

After listening to Nova's report, Haimo looked at the bacteria on his hand again with a little fanaticism:

"What a miracle this is! It is absolutely impossible to reproduce the body structure exclusive to monsters on small bacteria. It is absolutely impossible to do this without a deep understanding of both!"

【…】

The puppet's waist straightened a little, as if quite satisfied with the young man's performance at the moment.

"...It's so subtle, so subtle."

He almost looked over and over the modified version of the fermented bean curd bacteria in his hand. When Haimo looked up again at the puppet with a strange face, there was no longer any fear in his eyes. Instead, another A completely opposite feeling—

Its name is, 【Technology House の Frenzy】!

--------------

"Ah...so tired..."

As soon as she got home, she fell limply on the sofa, and the soft girl protested to Lu Xi who followed closely behind:

"Why do you have to travel so far just to buy ingredients for dinner?"

"To give you exercise."
