Natural Disasters Strikes: I stockpiled like crazy!

Xuan Yi was behind the machine, taking notes.

"Come in." Xuan Yi's assistant said.

Nanzhi approached the device. The assistant stuck the electrodes onto her temples before instructing her to place her hands.

As soon as the machine was turn on, Nanzhi felt a foreign force invaded her glabella. Although it not aggressive, Nanzhi still felt very uncomfortable.

The digital display showed signs of instability. The numbers and letters in the screen erratically changed.

It let out blaring beeping sounds.

System, what's happening? It's not going to be destroyed because of me, right?

The mental power energy kept going up from more than one hundred and was still not stopping and even the ability rank was raised to S plus, it appeared to roll more.

[Not. I'll make this quick.]

[Scanning in progress…]

Though the system reassured, Nanzhi made sure to tug the electrodes in time.

The assistant was stunned. What is going on?

The machine was working perfectly fine until now!

"Professor!"

Xuan Yi also frowned. Noticing the oddness, he lifted his eyes from the papers and that's when he saw Nanzhi.

The memory from plant conservatory came into his mind. It's her!

How about it now? Can you tell if it's a fragment?

[Scanning Complete.]

[The stone is not a fragment but rather another kind of material. As for the specific material, it must be a psionic core shard! Can't believe how this guy was lucky to get one!]

Psionic core shard? Isn't that only a high-level dungeon can spit out?!

How did this guy get it?

At the same time, after two minutes, the dialog display stabilized and showed the results.

The assistant's heart calmed. He really thought the machine was about to get destroyed. After heaving a sigh of relief, he input the information in the computer, printing a white card for Nanzhi. "Tier 0, Middle Stage, MP: 15, Metal Attribute, Ability Rank C minus."

Xuan Yi saw the results, his brows furrowed, disbelief written all over his face.

Nanzhi took off the electrodes and was about to go out when Xuan Yi said, "Hold on. I think the machine had mistaken. Let's take another test."

Tier 0 Middle Stage? C minus ability rank?

He had witnessed her take down and race with wolves so effortlessly! There is no way this is her true assessment!

"Connect the electrodes again." He said, his eyes boring holes in Nanzhi's head.

Although the assistant didn't know what was going on, he obeyed Xuan Yi. The assistant quickly urged Nanzhi.

Nanzhi strode back and took the second test but the same result showed but Xuan Yi was still doubtful.

"Wait!"

Nanzhi spun her head and thought Xuan Yi was about to ask for a third assessment.

However, Xuan Yi's intention this time was different. He took a satellite phone and handed it to her.

Xuan Yi gruffly said with his cheeks flushed, eyes barely making an eye contact. "Tch. I suppose I owe you for…that incident. I don't like debts. Logically, a life saved requires appropriate compensation. Your number. Give it!"

The guard outside nearly kneeled on the floor: This guy had a death wish! Find your next read at My Virtual Library Empire

The assistant was also stunned. Is professor asking a woman on a date?

Nanzhi didn't take the phone and only said, patting his shoulders. "You don't have to repay me. Just treat it as if I saved a national treasure."

Nanzhi left the room.

Xuan Yi's mind was blank: National Treasure? Is she saying I'm a panda?

Nanzhi reunited with Baoyin and Lin Yicheng.

"How's the assessment?"

"It's okay."

"Metal Ability?"

"Shhh."

Yu Baoyin understood the assignment and clamped her mouth.

Amidst their way back to the unit, they bumped into two people.

Zhang Heng and Xiao Hei were surprised to see them. Yu Baoyin remembered them too.

Zhang Heng quickly said with a smile, "It's you, Young Lady. I wanted to thank you for help back then. If it weren't for you, I would already be six-feet under the ground."

"Thank you for saving us and I'm sorry for my rough attitude back then." Xiao Hei lowered his eyes afterwards as he was very embarrassed from the memory.

Zhang Heng added, "If Miss are in need of supplies and help, you can come to the underground bunker and let a guard inform me. I'll definitely reach out."

Nanzhi shook her head. "It's okay."

Zhang Heng still remembered to pay the gratitude in the future.

"By the way, Miss, do you perhaps have a brother?" Zhang Heng couldn't help but ask. He couldn't shake off the sense of familiarity Nanzhi was emanating.

"No." Nanzhi answered.

"Is that so…" Zhang Heng was disappointed.

Since Zhang Heng had an urgent matter to attend to. They parted but not before reminding Nanzhi to look for him.

At night, on his way home to the Area no. 3, Xuan Yi was dragged in a secluded corner. A gloved hand covered his mouth and his face was covered with a sack.

The perpetuator carried him inside what it seems to be a back of the truck.

In the midst of his struggle, Xuan Yi's hand moved and light beams came out as an attempt of self-defense.

He can hear the other person say in sympathizing voice, "You better have guards next time. Shooting light beams won't prevent kidnapping."

Xuan Yi was speechless and angry at the same time.

"Anyway, where did you get the stone you used for the mental power measurement device?"

Xuan Yi was startled. How did this guy know about that thing?

When he felt the hand on his mouth loosened, he shouted. "Help!"

"Fat chance, this place is sound proof. How about this, if you reveal the location, I'll tell you what this thing is." The perpetuator negotiated.

Xuan Yi immediately stopped. After contemplating, he said the location, "I've found it on my trips on the antique shops in the capital. The name of the antique shop is Ink Jade Hall. The person who sold it said they've got it from the desolate blood rainforest..."

There was silence in the air.

"Now, it's your turn—"

Xuan Yi was knocked out cold before he could even finish his question.

By the time he woke up, he found himself inside his home, sleeping on his bed.

Meanwhile, Lin Weihao bumped into Nanzhi when she was about to go home.

"Where did you go? Did you go out hunting?"

"No. Just doing some business." Nanzhi shrugged her shoulders.

Lin Weihao smells something fishy.
