No matter how he thinks about it, Yi Daoren still can't guess Rust's purpose of approaching him, and can only sigh that he doesn't have the ability to read people's hearts, and he can't directly see through Rust's purpose, all he can do is passive vigilance. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Passivity is a feeling that Yidao people don't like very much, because there are too many unknowables.

"At the end of the day, it's not strong enough. If I have the god-like strength to refine the land, do I still need to worry about these things? ”

Looking at the room full of alchemy research books, Yi Daoren sighed deeply.

He had already read all these alchemy research books, and although he hadn't analyzed them all, he probably had already memorized the contents.

It's a pity that although these alchemy research books provide him with a lot of research directions, and are very helpful to the exertion of his own strength, especially the exertion of creation and refining, they cannot allow him to improve substantially!

His alchemy has reached a bottleneck for the time being, and all he needs is to accumulate knowledge.

But that's not something that can be done in a while, and any accumulation of knowledge takes time!

But he didn't have that much time!

"It seems that we can only seek the development of alchemy. Just information about alchemy, the ones I only got when I was in Ishbal...... Why don't you look for Lao Hu? ”

Yi Daoren, who wanted to use alchemy to find a way to make himself stronger, found that he lacked information, and the first thing that came to mind was Lao Hu, a merchant from the new country that he had come into contact with.

After all, alchemy is the knowledge of the new country, and it is natural for him to think of Lao Hu, because the people he knows in the new country are just Lao Hu.

However, after remembering that Lao Hu had asked for the Sage's Stone, Yi Daoren frowned again.

"Although it is said that there is no worry about debts, it is plain to cause trouble......"

While pondering about the gains and losses, Yi Daoren suddenly saw a pile of research reports on the table not far away.

That's what Shaw Tucker gave him about genetics!

"Use the dragon vein to catalyze the evolutionary information in the body's own genes and make itself transcendent...... Although this is just my assumption, since correcting the dragon vein can make itself stronger, it should be possible to catalyze its own evolution! I wonder if Shaw Tucker has researched anything useful during this time......"

On the outskirts of Central City, in a somewhat dilapidated house, Shaw Tucker was sorting through the papers on his desk, which were his most recent observations.

However, these experimental observation reports cannot be shown to others for the time being, even if they are called relatives!

Not only because these experimental observation reports are important, but also because the subjects of these experimental observation reports are the people who are called loved ones!

"Woo Wow ~ Woo Wow ~"

Suddenly, a loud baby cry was heard, causing Shaw Tucker to pause as he sorted out his papers.

"Since the experiment began, Nina has been having some minor problems with her body, and if this continues, Lina will find something sooner or later......"

Shaw Tucker didn't think long before a loud and disgusted woman's voice rang out: "Shaw! Are you dead? Didn't you hear Nina crying? Leave your research unpromising! Hurry up and take care of it, I still need to weave Nina's clothes! ”

It was Shaw Tucker's wife, the voice of Lina in his mouth.

Because Shaw Tucker did not achieve much in alchemy, all the experiments were not favored and he refused to give up research, so life gradually became tight, which made Lina Tucker, who took a fancy to Shaw Tucker's alchemist and married, more and more impatient with Shaw Tucker who was doing research in the house.

"Perhaps, if it weren't for Nina's birth, Lina would have left me, a useless man, at this moment...... Thankfully, Nina was born, in every sense! With a wry smile on his lips but a cold glint in his eyes, Shaw Tucker collected the experimental observations in his hand, locked them, and then came out of the study and walked to his crying daughter's room.

"Yo Yo Yo, good boy, Nina doesn't cry!" Holding his daughter, who had the same flaxen hair as himself, Shaw Tucker had a gentle and loving smile on his face.

This is not a disguise, although he used what he has researched on his daughter without testing, but her daughter is indeed what he loves.

In other words, Shaw Tucker's purpose in making Nina Tucker an experiment is actually to make Nina Tucker's life and even Lina Tucker's life a little better!

Because he believes that his experiments will bear fruit!

When the time comes, he can join the Third Research Institute, and even directly obtain the qualification of a national alchemist, so that his wife and daughter can have a worry-free life from now on!

Fail?

I'm sorry, but Shaw Tucker doesn't believe he can fail, and he can't believe he can!

He must succeed!

Both for himself and his family!

"Is Mr. Shaw Tucker at home?"

Suddenly, Shaw Tucker, who was coaxing Nina Tucker, suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from the doorway.

"You are?" Looking at the pale and ugly man in front of him, as if he had crawled out of a grave, holding a cane, sitting in front of the door basking in the sun and knitting clothes for his daughter, Lina Tucker frowned for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "What is the matter with you coming to my husband?" ”

"Hello, Mrs. Tucker, I'm from Yi Dao, is Mr. Tucker at home?"

Before Lina Tucker could reply, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind her, and then she heard her husband Shaw Tucker's respectful voice sound: "At home!" Captain Yi, I didn't expect you to really come to my house...... Why is your complexion so ugly? Is something wrong? ”

"Captain?" Looking at the ugly man in front of her with suspicious eyes, Lina Tucker had a feeling that Shaw Tucker had been deceived.

Although the man he called Captain Yi was dressed appropriately and the materials were not bad, his sick complexion did not have the feeling of being a soldier at all!

"Lina, take Nina to sleep, prepare some tea by the way, don't slack off Captain Yi!" Seeing Lina Tucker looking at Yi Daoren with a suspicious expression, Shaw Tucker was suddenly worried that Lina Tucker would offend Yi Daoren by doing so, so the daughter in his arms handed it to Lina Tucker and beckoned her to pour tea, and at the same time introduced in an accentuated voice: "This is Captain Yi Daoren, who works in the Third Research Institute!" ”

"Hello, Mrs. Tucker." Yi Daoren smiled slightly, and at the same time took out the document representing his military identity and lit it up.

Is it really a captain?

With slightly round eyes, Lina Tucker didn't expect that her husband, who had always been useless, actually knew a captain and could let someone come to visit, so she couldn't help but say a little nervously: "Please come in, I'll go and prepare some food ...... right away"

"Don't be so polite, I'm just here to talk to Mr. Tucker about the research report he gave me earlier, Madame better take care of the children first." Smiling slightly, Yi Daoren glanced at the baby who was being held in his arms by Lina Tucker, looking at him with his fingers in his mouth, and praised, "Nina? What a great name and a perfect match for this lovely kid...... Well? ”

Suddenly, Yi Daoren, who was praising the Tucker couple's child, suddenly felt that Nina Tucker's dragon vein gave him an incongruous feeling, and couldn't help frowning and asked, "Is the child's body uncomfortable?" ”

Hearing this, Shaw Tucker's face stiffened with respect, and then he said a little unnaturally: "Nina's health is not bad, why does Captain Yi ask that?" ”

Lina Tucker on the side also looked at Yi Daoren with a strange expression.

Looking at Xiao Tucker, whose expression was a little abnormal, and then looking at Lina Tucker, Yi Daoren was silent for a moment, and then smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that there are tears on Little Nina's face, and it seems that she has cried......"

"Oh~ this! Isn't Captain Yi married and having children yet? Children often cry for no apparent reason. Smiling, Lina Tucker hugged Nina Tucker and shivered, then walked into the house: "Don't stand at the door...... Xiao, why don't you invite Captain Yi in? ”

"Oh! Captain Yi, please! ”

"Whatever you want, Mr. Tucker, please." Smiling slightly, Yi Daoren motioned for Shaw Tucker to enter the back of the house, and slowly followed with a decorative cane.

While walking with Shaw Tucker, Yi Daoren observed Shaw Tucker's house, and found that the house not only looked old from the outside, but also looked like there were many cracks inside, although some places had been repaired, but it was obvious that they could not live for long.

"Mr. Tucker wants to join the institute so much, just to change places and make your wife and children live a better life, right?"

"That's right! Now I'm just an alchemist with no regular job, and although I occasionally get some work that only an alchemist can do, I don't help my family much......"

"So you used your daughter as a test subject?"

Shaw Tucker, who was leading Yi Daoren to his study, was stunned and stopped.

As if petrified, Shaw Tucker turned his head stiffly, and said with an expression that was laughing rather than crying, "Captain Yi is really joking, how can I use my daughter for experiments......"

"Do you know why I, an alchemist active on the battlefield, became a member of the Third Research Institute?" After interrupting Shaw Tucker, Yi Daoren didn't wait for Shaw Tucker to answer his question, and then answered himself: "Because my observation ability is the sharpest in the entire Third Research Institute for the time being. As long as I'm sure of something, it's almost a sure thing! ”

Shaw Tucker smiled unnaturally and complimented, "Uh...... Hehe...... I see, no wonder Captain Yi was able to be the interviewer......"

"So, do you have anything to say about what I found out you were experimenting with your daughter? The state has a clear rule that alchemists are not allowed to experiment with people! ”

The unnatural smile on Shaw Tucker's face froze completely, and finally faded.

After bowing his head and being silent for a moment, Shaw Tucker suddenly said, "Didn't you say that...... What others can see, only my results, no one needs to know my process. Captain Yi, aren't you willing to come to me because you want to know the results of genetic research? ”

Yi Daoren didn't answer, just looked at Shaw Tucker coldly.

Clenching his hands, Shaw Tucker said in a deep voice: "I don't have a research fund, I don't have a target for my experiments......"

"So you chose your daughter?" Yi Daoren's question was extremely bland, without any ups and downs.

"Yes! Because she was born and is best suited to study genetic changes......" After a pause, Shaw Tucker couldn't find the words to describe his daughter.

However, he didn't dwell on it for long, because Yi Daoren had already found the answer for him.

"Is it the best material for studying genetic changes? Indeed, nascent animals are the most malleable. After nodding in agreement, Yi Daoren looked in the direction where Lina Tucker's voice could be vaguely heard coaxing Nina Tucker, and said lightly: "But can you guarantee the success of your experiment?" ”

"I'm going to make it!"

Turning his head and glancing at Shaw Tucker, who was full of confidence, Yi Daoren pouted and said, "But in my opinion, your experimental materials, your daughter, Nina Tucker, will live for about a month at most." ”

Shaw Tucker exclaimed in disbelief, "What?!" How can it be?! ”

"Shaw? What happened? Don't shout at home! Shaw Tucker's voice unconsciously raised his voice, and it made a noise to Lina Tucker, who was coaxing Nina Tucker.

Looking at Shaw Tucker with a flat gaze, or as if he was looking at a dead thing, Yi Daoren said lightly: "Since you want to join the Third Research Institute of Graduate Body Refining, then you also have some understanding of the human body structure, right?" Don't tell me you didn't find your daughter's problem. ”

Clenching his hands, Shaw Tucker said in a deep voice: "Those small problems, there must be a way to solve them!" ”

The corners of Yi Daoren's mouth opened and he chuckled disdainfully: "Hehe...... Will there be a way? That said, you can't fix it right now, do you? ”

Speechless, Shaw Tucker just looked at the room where his daughter and his wife were now with a complicated look.

"Show me a record of your observations, and I'll check little Nina's body later. Anyway, I also have a little responsibility for her to be your research material. ”

Yi Daoren's slightly indifferent words brought Shaw Tucker back to his senses, and then pushed open the door of the study without thinking and walked towards the desk.

However, when he took out the key to unlock the desk cabinet, Shaw Tucker paused: "Captain Yi, do you really have a way to save my daughter?" ”

Raising his eyebrows, Yi Daoren said lightly: "Is this sentence based on wanting the experiment to succeed, or is it based on my concern as a father?" ”

The hand holding the key trembled, and after a long silence, Shaw Tucker said astringently, "Both!" ”

"I hope what you said is true......" Coming to Shaw Tucker's side, Yi Daoren snatched the key from Shaw Tucker's hand and opened the cabinet: "I can't guarantee that I can save her, but at least I can guarantee that she can live for a longer period of time, so that she can be your experimental material and daughter for a while longer." Conditioning, of course, that I also be an observer of this experiment! ”
