Xia Qinglan not only felt that her worldview had been shattered once again, but also felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity.
Most importantly.
"It's just a simple plastic water bottle..."
"How could a plastic water bottle manage to smash through three steel plates?"
Xia Qinglan's legs trembled involuntarily.
Plastic materials can never penetrate steel; this is because their internal atomic structure does not allow it.
If it can be smashed through, then there's only one possibility...
"That's incredible! Just a flick of its tail and it directly altered the molecular structure of this plastic water bottle?"
"Is this what a true dragon is? Such unreasonable behavior..."
An Ming looked at the Shadow Dragon in Yu Xiao's arms, his eyes shining.
The first time was surprise, the second time was shock, and the third time was numbness. These repeated occurrences only fueled An Ming's growing fervor for what was contained within them.
According to 21st-century scientific observations, all matter is composed of molecules, and the usefulness of a substance depends on other characteristics of the molecules.
What would it mean if we could directly rewrite the most basic molecular structure?
Yu Xiao was also a little surprised, but only slightly.
Compared to the abilities and feedback he gained from the dragon, this was nothing.
However, what intrigued Yu Xiao was...
"Why are you watching TV?"
Looking into the Shadow Dragon's large eyes, Yu Xiao was a little puzzled.
"Roar~" [I remembered I should obey the Lord's orders!]
The Shadow Dragon blinked its big, round eyes, its face full of sincerity.
Speak like a human.
"Roar~" [What is that human speech? Is that what you, Lord, are saying?]
"..."
Looking at Shadow Dragon's extremely innocent expression, Yu Xiao fell silent.
...
"Mr. Yu Xiao, I must say, this Shadow Dragon is a creature I never dared to even imagine before."
"Extremely high IQ, outstanding abilities in all aspects, even his excrement contains rare metals and even uranium-235."
"I've been trying to inflate the value of the Shadow Dragon time and time again, but its true worth always manages to exceed my expectations..."
An Ming sat on the sofa, looked at Yu Xiao opposite him, and spoke with excitement.
He couldn't help but be excited. As someone who had been exploring paleontology for a long time, he was thrilled to see a creature that completely overturned his imagination.
They possess high intelligence, are able to adapt to and learn from human society, and have formidable abilities in all aspects. The economic and strategic value of their derivatives is immeasurable.
Let alone hundreds of millions a month, even billions or trillions, Anming felt the returns would far exceed his expectations.
"I told you so..."
Yu Xiao glanced at Shadow Dragon, who was sitting on the ground watching TV not far away, and curled his lip.
However, the Shadow Dragon's current state makes it truly impossible to connect it with the scene from before...
This adorable creature, resembling a teacup dog, can smash through three steel plates with a single flick of its tail, like a plastic water bottle.
If the level of disguise is out of 100, Yu Xiao thinks the Shadow Dragon and the Golden Dragon deserve 200 points.
"But Mr. Yu Xiao, what is the main reason for your visit this time?"
"Just to take a look at the Shadow Dragon?"
Seeing Yu Xiao's expression, An Ming asked curiously.
"No, there's something else."
Yu Xiao waved his hand.
"I remember saying online that I was going to open a dragon consulting company and then recruiting people to apply."
"But more than a week has passed, and still no one has come."
"I suspect it's not that they don't want to come, but rather that their companies are creating various obstacles for them."
Yu Xiao spoke calmly.
As someone with over a decade of experience in the business, Yu Xiao has a clearer understanding of the situation.
Don't be fooled by those capitalists shouting "Take it or leave it"; if you don't want to do it, there are plenty of others who will.
But once you're actually ready to leave, they'll start making things difficult for you.
Either the resignation procedures were not completed, or the handover of work was incomplete.
In short, squeeze out as much remaining value as possible.
"Shouldn't the company immediately approve an employee's resignation?"
"Even if the handover process only takes a day or two, right?"
Hearing Yu Xiao's words, An Ming was stunned and somewhat puzzled.
Yu Xiao could understand An Ming's puzzled expression.
They didn't explain anything.
"So could you take a look over there for me?"
"The sooner Zhenlong Consulting Company emerges, the happier the country will be, right?"
Yu Xiao smiled and nodded to An Ming.
...
More than half an hour later.
Inside a room at the research base.
"Huh?" [Why?]
Fluttering its wings, the Shadow Dragon tilted its head and looked at Yu Xiao, its eyes full of confusion.
"This is my home, are you trying to destroy it?"
Yu Xiao rolled his eyes at Shadow Dragon and spoke irritably.
Upon hearing this...
"Huh?" [Then why does it work anywhere except Great Xia?]
"Huh?" [Aren't they human too?]
The Shadow Dragon's gaze grew even more puzzled, and it asked two crucial questions in a row.
"Forehead……"
Yu Xiao was also taken aback.
How should I answer?
While Yu Xiao was struggling to figure out how to explain things to Shadow Dragon,
"Roar~" [You don't like them, do you, Master?]
The Shadow Dragon seemed to have figured something out, and its eyes lit up.
Seeing that Shadow Dragon said so.
"Pretty much, especially that shoehorn-shaped island to the east."
"If you want to fight, go there and fight to your heart's content. It would be best if you could make the volcano erupt."
Yu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and spoke with a serious expression.
"Roar~ Roar~" [I understand!]
"Roar~" [Master, those you don't like aren't human!]
The Shadow Dragon nodded heavily, then extended its right claw, grasped it, and held it horizontally in front of its chest, its face solemn.
"..."
Yu Xiao suddenly fell silent again.
He suddenly didn't know whether Shadow Dragon truly understood or truly didn't.
I hesitated for a moment.
"Let me ask you one more question: can your issue with the Golden Dragon be resolved?"
Yu Xiao looked up at the Shadow Dragon.
The two hatchlings are real dragons, each with a tail swing that can generate tens of tons of impact.
If the two dislike each other, then they are truly ticking time bombs.
"Roar~" [Impossible!]
The Shadow Dragon stood upright and hovered in mid-air, arms crossed over its chest, head tilted back, its face full of anger.
"Roar~ Roar~" [To actually call me, a dragon, the lowest of beings is unforgivable!]
The Shadow Dragon raised its head even higher.
Yu Xiao did not speak.
It seems the main problem lies with the Golden Dragon.
But the Golden Dragon is really something, a perfectly good dragon, calling others stinky mudfish...
Which dragon could endure such an injustice?
I rubbed my temples, feeling both headache and testicular pain.
"Alright, then go fight somewhere else, not within the territory of Great Xia."
Yu Xiao sighed.
Upon hearing Yu Xiao's words...
"Roar~" [Listen to the Lord!]
Shadow Dragon turned his head, looked at Yu Xiao, and nodded emphatically.
With a roar, the Shadow Dragon seemed still worried about something. It looked around and then landed on its tail.
next moment.
"Roar~" [I swear!]
The Shadow Dragon grabbed its own tail and lifted itself up, looking at Yu Xiao with its large eyes filled with seriousness and focus.
Seeing this, Yu Xiao fell silent.
I thought about it.
"Then I'll..."
Yu Xiao glanced at the darkening sky outside the window and spoke.
He was only halfway through his sentence.
"Crunch—"
The steel gates opened to both sides.
"Mr. Yu Xiao, did you apprehend a criminal gang on your way here?"
An Ming rushed in, looking at Yu Xiao with a worried expression.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
Yu Xiao was a little curious.
"That gang is the same group that made fake dragon eggs to scam people out of money before."
"However, it was later discovered that they were not only making fake dragon eggs, but also a fraud gang that had been entrenched in Donghai City for many years, swindling countless people out of their assets."
An Ming walked up to Yu Xiao and spoke urgently.
"?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiao blinked.
I exposed the dragon egg seller as a fraud?
It's a shame, though. If I'd known they were selling dragon eggs, I should have spat in everyone's face...
I inwardly cursed it.
"Isn't that a good thing?"
Yu Xiao spread his hands, looking at An Ming with a puzzled expression.
That's not the point!
"After the Shallow Water District Police Department arrested them, they found that Li Chengkun was carrying a handgun of unknown origin on his waist, while stun guns and steel knives were also found on the waists of the other men."
"Since it was you, Mr. Yu Xiao, who subdued them, are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
