#241 - Chapter 241 Action Begins

“In that case, you only need to update the other equipment you have. Considering that the space pouches might be damaged by the high-speed passage of time, all of your supplies need to be placed in the skill space.”

Mo Wang's bag of holding was something he gambled for using the synthesis table, and Shui Bingbing's space pouch was made from a stomach pouch combined with space magic and other technologies. It's unknown whether either of these can be preserved for a long time, so it's safer to put them in the space generated by the skills.

In fact, Shui Bingbing and Kong Que also have their own spaces, but they don't have time anchors, so they can't explore them.

“This is a Bigu Pill, enough for ten days. Our planned operation time is seven days, so one pill should be enough, but just in case, I'll give you a few more.”

The reason not to take dozens or even a hundred days' worth of Bigu Pills at once is that if you really eat that much, you will lose the ability to eat for a long time after coming out on time, which most people are unwilling to do.

“Give me some.”

Fu Tantan stretched his hand out in front of Yu Ding.

Yu Ding kicked him: “Do you even need this? Did that big bucket you ate already digest?”

“Better safe than sorry. My Bigu time is expiring in a few years, so I'll take this opportunity to stock up.”

“Get lost!”

Although he was impolite, Yu Ding still threw him a handful.

This guy showed his lazy side right around graduation, directly using the credits he earned in a semester to buy many years' worth of Bigu Pills.

His reasoning was that he wanted to keep the troublesome matter of eating away from his life.

But Yu Ding thought he was just lazy, because he used the time he saved to daydream, without doing anything serious.

Usually, he would only do the tasks that Yu Ding forced upon him; otherwise, he probably wouldn't even step out of the house.

“Once you go down there, you listen to our command. If the command is cut off, you listen to Xiao Qi, understand?”

“Got it, got it.”

Fu Tantan waved his hand, then sat back in the seat next to him.

“OK, next, prepare to start the operation. First, go inside here and change your clothes.” Yu Ding opened a small door to a utility room for them.

After they changed into their battle suits, Kong Que said to them:

“This time, you must not go too far ahead. Once you exceed Yu Ding's perception range, he won't be able to see you. Of course, if you encounter an emergency, that's another matter.”

“Okay.”

“Then let's begin.”

Kong Que waved her hand, and a spatial gate appeared in front of them.

Inside, it wasn't pitch black, but rather a dim, ghostly blue light.

“Remember to call for help if you encounter danger. I will open the teleportation gate one minute after receiving the distress signal.” Kong Mei repeated what she had already said.

Qi Jing and Fu Tantan's battle suits would be affected by the time acceleration of the Time Whale Graveyard, which meant that the images and signals transmitted back through the battle suits would be accelerated, causing discrepancies with the receiving equipment here.

And adjusting this discrepancy would take about a minute, so their support would only arrive after one minute.

“Okay, Aunt Kong, we definitely will.”

Qi Jing nodded, then followed Fu Tantan through the spatial gate.

“Hello, hello? Can you hear me? Do you feel your hair growing faster?”

Yu Ding's voice came from the side of Qi Jing's helmet.

Besides the basic water pressure resistance and defensive capabilities, the most critical technology of their battle suit was dealing with the difference in time flow.

Just as the signals they sent would have discrepancies, the sounds they received would also be accelerated.

So, the main task of this battle suit was to process these sounds, which were accelerated hundreds or thousands of times, into something a normal person could hear.

“Can hear, can hear. We are in good condition now.”

After Qi Jing finished speaking, he began to wait for Yu Ding's reply.

The first task Yu Ding gave them was to confirm whether the connection was clear. If there was danger or a connection failure upon landing, they had to abandon the mission immediately and return through the spatial gate.

One minute later.

Yu Ding's voice came:

“Received, begin the operation.”

With the end of these words, the spatial gate behind them immediately closed.

Kong Mei said that opening her spatial gate in the Time Whale Graveyard would cost thousands of times more Source Power, so she wouldn't keep the spatial gate open for a long time unless necessary; otherwise, she could empty the Time Whale Graveyard alone with her spatial power.

“Brother Fu, let's start.”

“Okay, you go left, I go right.”

How lazy, this senior is too lazy to even say a few more words.

Qi Jing muttered to himself, then began to use Crane Control Capturing Dragon to move the things under his feet.

They were directly teleported to the top of a Time Whale's corpse, and their mission was to empty the treasures covering it.

Because Qi Jing could only teleport things within two meters of his body into his space, and the Time Whale's corpse was as big as a small mountain, even if he moved as fast as he could, it was still very slow compared to the Time Whale's massive size.

And Fu Tantan's speed was about the same as his, or even exactly the same.

Finally, after working silently for half an hour, Qi Jing couldn't help but open his mouth:

“Brother Fu, whose abilities have you copied? Why is your speed exactly the same as mine?”

A lazy voice came from the other side:

“Ah, [Empty]'s personal space, [Mediocre]'s infinite energy, Yu Ding's telekinesis, your anchor, that's all.”

Then there was endless silence again.

This is too lazy.

Qi Jing was speechless.

Working with his head down was too boring. There were clearly two people, so why was it almost the same as acting alone!

However, Qi Jing captured a key piece of information. The skill he copied from [Mediocre] was actually called Infinite Energy, so what would [Mediocre]'s ability be?

“Brother Fu, have you had a girlfriend in all these years since you graduated?”

“No.”

“Brother Fu, are you, Sister Flower God, and Brother Yu in the same class?”

“Yes.”

“Brother Fu, have you done anything big in all these years since you graduated?”

“Yes.”

“Can you tell me about it in detail?”

“No.”

......

Qi Jing felt endless torment for the first time.

It turned out that he didn't like living alone, that he really needed someone else's company and communication, that he wasn't a qualified social recluse, that he was so afraid of loneliness and solitude.

Why was he too lazy to even speak? How could there be such a lazy person in the world!

Who could stand him?

“Brother Fu, do you usually live with other people?”

“No.”

As expected, no one wanted to stay with him.

Another silent half hour, and they finally finished recovering the treasures from the upper layer of the Time Whale.

Fortunately, the Sleeping Octopus only covered the surface of the Time Whale's corpse with a layer of treasures; otherwise, Qi Jing's space wouldn't be able to hold a whole whale's worth.

Qi Jing began to try to increase his speed. Stepping on his light skill, he swept everything under his feet into his space like an autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.

But he found that Fu Tantan's speed was still the same as his after he accelerated.

So, was he just acting (lazy) just now?
