Chapter 1287: Dialogue

Fang Jing imitates Yang Ping'an's manner, pouring the nutrient solution into her mouth.

A long-missing sense of moisture came over her.

Her fair, crystalline skin also began to flush.

Adequate nourishment began to moisten her cells, which were thirsty and hard to satisfy; the cells seemed to recall their primal craving, greedily absorbing the nutrients.

Soon a can of nutrient solution was completely consumed by Fang Jing, but her body told her it wasn't enough, still not enough.

She looked at the nutrient solution in Yang Ping'an's hand, snatched it away, and then greedily devoured it.

Yang Ping'an was startled by her savagery.

"What's going on, are you starving?"

At this moment Yang Qing, however, noticed a clue.

After all, Fang Jing's current state is a modification based on humans.

The human part of her body has been continually suppressed by the part belonging to the mist creatures.

Now, with the intake of the nutrient solution, the human part begins to recover frenetically.

"It turns out her seemingly perfect body has long been withered inside."

With the intake of the nutrient solution, human characteristics are returning to her body, and that fairy-like feeling is quickly fading.

As she absorbs the nutrients, Fang Jing's consciousness is slowly recovering.

Her bewildered gaze gradually shifts from dull to clear.

She looks at the man before her, he's somewhat handsome.

But who are you, why are you on my bed?

No, where is this place? Everything is mist.

No, it seems I have entered the mist zone.

No, my mecha seems to have ruptured in battle, and I've been poisoned.

Poison, right, the mist is toxic, can't breathe directly.

"Oxygen mask, I need an oxygen mask."

She grabbed Yang Ping'an's arm.

Yang Ping'an then also noticed that the other party had regained consciousness.

"Fang Jing, Fang Jing, you've remembered, haven't you?"

Fang Jing is very anxious, shaking Yang Ping'an's arm hard.

With such great force, he was shaken like a rattle, flailing wildly.

"Calm down, calm down, Fang Jing, calm down and listen to me."

For a matter of life and death, Fang Jing has no time to chatter with him.

"Oxygen mask, give it to me, give it to me."

Yang Ping'an knows that talking won't help; the key is that if he doesn't do something, his body will be shaken apart.

He pulled down his own oxygen mask and then slapped it onto Fang Jing's face.

Fang Jing clung to the oxygen mask, breathing greedily.

She still muttered in her heart.

"This is you voluntarily giving it to me, not me snatching it."

Seeing her like that, Yang Ping'an wanted to laugh, but secretly cursed his bad luck.

"Fang Jing, listen, you don't need an oxygen mask; the mist now does you little harm."

As he spoke, he reached out to try to take the oxygen mask back.

Fang Jing took two deep breaths, then handed the oxygen mask to Yang Ping'an.

"What nonsense are you spouting? How could the mist possibly not harm me?"

"Like this, we'll take turns using it; let's set out now, we need to leave the mist zone as soon as possible."

Yang Ping'an knows explanations are useless, so he simply pulls her up and runs outward.

Not far into the run, they actually walked out of the mist zone.

What should have been a joyful thing, but Fang Jing suddenly felt unwell.

"What's going on, what's happening?"

Yang Ping'an pulled her back.

"Look at your arm and body."

Body arm?

Only then did Fang Jing notice the patterns on her body and arms.

"Ah……"

She was startled.

"What is this?"

Yang Ping'an brought him back, then began to explain the situation.

Only then did Fang Jing arrive at a fact she could hardly accept.

"I am no longer human."

"Ah……"

She was on the verge of collapse, letting out a somewhat crazy shout.

Seeing this, Yang Ping'an was somewhat at a loss.

"Quickly, hold her."

Yang Qing assisted from the side.

Because Yang Qing had senior authority, Yang Ping'an firmly believed the message transmitted via the Mind-Interlink Technology, so he just did it.

He grabbed Fang Jing in a hug and softly comforted her.

Don't be scared, don't be scared; we haven't yet done various body modifications—you just have a bit more modification.

You are Fang Jing; you must believe in yourself.

The power of an embrace is strong, especially since women have low resistance to embraces.

The frantic Fang Jing gradually calmed down.

Yang Ping'an just wanted to let go.

Who knew Fang Jing would hold on tightly, refusing to let go.

Let me hold you a little longer.

Everyone said that, so Yang Ping'an gave up resisting.

Fang Jing sobbed for a while, then withdrew from Yang Ping'an's embrace.

After she let go of Yang Ping'an, she suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.

A strong will surged toward her.

Fang Jing covered her head with one hand and gripped Yang Ping'an's arm tightly with the other, her fingernails digging into his flesh.

Oh no, it's trying to control me—you need to run.

She is more human than anything else.

Yang Ping'an also wanted to leave, but Fang Jing held him fast.

Her nails even tore his arm, making Yang Ping'an look bloody and mangled.

The mecha parked not far away began to move.

He quickly flung it open and charged over.

They wanted Yang Ping'an to put on the mecha.

"Yang Family Head, I think we can talk."

The mecha that had half of Yang Ping'an's body encased paused upon hearing that, then continued swiftly pulling him inside.

Fang Jing also released Yang Ping'an then, as if showing sincerity.

Yang Ping'an was completely dazed.

His mecha was not under his own control.

Fang Jing across from him was being controlled by a powerful figure in the mist.

Just as he was dazed, his mecha spoke on its own.

"I am Yang Qing. What do you want to talk about?"

Fang Jing sat cross-legged on the bed, appearing somewhat refined and genteel.

Yet what she said was shockingly surprising.

"I was born in the Yingjiang Laboratory."

"To be clearer, I am the Laboratory Technical Director."

Later I was controlled by Beta.

After the nuclear explosion, because your blockade was too tight, we couldn't get enough supplies and were forced to abandon our bodies.

Finally, the remaining brains were subjected to deep experiments by Beta.

In the end, we were transformed into mist creatures.

"Speaking of which, we are still human."

Yang Qing quietly watched his performance.

"Humans? This place is the birthplace of viruses and parasites."

"Even if it once was, it's impossible now."

"Please continue."

The other party saw that Yang Qing showed no sign of knowing his performance had failed.

"I'll just say it straight, Yang Qing—you should also know about Beta's collusion with certain people."

"They are currently plotting a violent act."

"If the Yang Family is willing to cooperate with us, we are willing to help the Yang Family get through this crisis."

"All we need is a tiny amount of nuclear waste."

"What do you think?"

"Isn't that quite a calculation?"
