Chapter 562: The Nangong Family Is Actually a Tomb Raider Family
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Chu Luo felt that the only advantage of being a president was that she had greater authority.
Opening the door of Laboratory 404, Chu Luo scanned the inside and walked in with satisfaction.
Her experiment lasted the entire afternoon. It was only until the administrator saw that she hadn’t come out that he came over and reminded her, “Chu Luo, it’s already 5: 30. Why don’t you go eat first?”
With a test tube in her hand, Chu Luo looked up at the administrator and replied perfunctorily, “Okay, I’ll go later.”
Chu Luo waited until Li Yan called her.
Chu Luo then realized that it was already past ten at night.
She said to Li Yan excitedly, “Yan, I decomposed something from the phantom fish spirit that can dissolve the medicine in those Ink Feather members’ bodies.”
Li Yan asked her, “Where are you now?”
Only then did Chu Luo remember that she had forgotten to contact anyone in the outside world since she entered the laboratory at noon.
“I’m in Laboratory 404 at the medical school’s laboratory building.”
“Okay, I’ll come and pick you up immediately.”
‘The two of them hung up.
Chu Luo continued her experiment.
When Li Yan came up, he saw that she was still busy and waited for her.
When Chu Luo was done, it was already an hour later.
She tilted her head and said to Li Yan with a smile, “I think I can create the antidote in the bodies of Ink Feather members soon.”
Li Yan touched her cheek and asked, “When did you start the experiment?”
Puzzled by why he asked this, Chu Luo answered, “I came after lunch.”
Li Yan frowned.
He then asked, “Have you eaten dinner?”
Chu Luo shook her head.
Li Yan’s eyes lit up. “The experiment will continue tomorrow. Let’s go eat first.”
“But…”
“If you like, I’ll get someone to buy a set of the instruments here and send them to our villa.”
With the butler watching her eat, he felt reassured.
After Li Yan finished speaking, he decided to get someone to buy these instruments later.
Chu Luo didn’t mind where she did the experiment, so she deliberately said to Li Yan mischievously, “I’m enjoying the rights of the president. Previously, if I came here to do experiments, I would have to apply. I can just swipe my school card now.”
Li Yan looked at Chu Luo, who was packing the tools and saying this happily. His lips subconsciously curled up. “Since you’re the president of the Student Union, will you be busier in the future?”
“No.” Chu Luo raised her chin at him and said to him cunningly, “I’m going to train all the cadres of the Student Union so that they won’t have a chance to look for me.”
Seeing her expression, Li Yan couldn’t help but pinch her cheek.
Chu Luo realized his recent special fetish and criticized him in dissatisfaction. “You’ve been pinching my face a lot recently.”
Li Yan chuckled. After laughing, he said, “Who asked my wife to be so fair? She makes me want to pinch her again and again.”
Chu Luo: “…”
After Chu Luo tidied up the laboratory, the two of them went downstairs.
At this moment, there was no one in the medical laboratory.
The administrator must have seen that Chu Luo was serious about the experiment, so he had specially opened a side door for her. There was even a note on the door, asking her to close the door after she came out.
After closing the door, the two of them walked towards the car parked beside the laboratory building.
After getting into the car, Li Yan gave her a thermos flask.
Chu Luo opened it and saw delicious pastries inside.
“Eat something to fill your stomach first. I’ll get someone to cook supper for you when we get back.”
Chu Luo ate a few pastries before stopping to talk to Li Yan about Nangong Yi.
Chu Luo said, “Senior Nangong was picked up at this time. It seems like all these have nothing to do with him.”
“Mm.” Li Yan told her, “The last two generations of the Nangong family are also tomb raiders. Not only are they active in the empire, but they’re also active worldwide.”
“In that case, they’ve raided many tombs.”
“That’s right.”
“Then why did their family stop entering the tombs later on?”
“I couldn’t find anything. The Nangong family suddenly stopped entering the tombs when they reached Nangong Yi’s father’s generation.”
Chu Luo thought for a while and guessed, “They might have been cursed and can’t enter the tomb.”
Chu Luo took out her phone and checked the photos of Nangong Yi’s family of three.
Nangong Yi looked very similar to his father. Both of them were handsome men who looked gentle and warm.
Nangong Yi’s mother was a little more ordinary. Her appearance could only be considered average, but she had a good disposition.
After looking at the photo, Chu Luo thought for a while and had a strange feeling. She specially sent a message to Nangong Yi.
Chu Luo: “Senior, don’t worry. I’ll manage the Student Union well. Call me back when you can move.”
After sending the message, she put away her phone.
The next day, Chu Luo still went to the medical school laboratory to do experiments.
She only walked out of the laboratory in the afternoon.
‘When everyone saw the delighted Chu Luo, they couldn’t help but secretly guess why she was so happy.
Chu Luo ignored everyone’s discussion and sent Li Yan a message as she walked.
Chu Luo: “Yan, my experiment was successful.”
Li Yan: “Do you need herbs?”
Chu Luo: “Yes, I’ll come to your company later. We’ll talk slowly then.”
Li Yan: “Okay.”
Just as she was about to put away her phone, Chu Luo received a call from the principal of Imperial University.
The principal congratulated her and couldn’t hide the joy in his tone. “Little Chu, I’ve already received your and CEO Li’s invitations.”
Chu Luo also smiled. “Then come to my house early when the time comes, Principal.”
‘The principal: “Hahaha… Okay.”
‘The two of them spoke for a while before hanging up. Unexpectedly, many people called her again, all of them talking about them having received the invitation.
Actually, Chu Luo hadn’t done anything regarding this. She had only just found out that the invitations had been sent out these past two days.
At the thought of the omnipotent butler at home, Chu Luo decided to let Li Yan raise the butler’s salary.
‘When she finally hung up the phone and walked to the school gate on the skateboard, Yu Tong stopped her.
Yu Tong happened to come back from outside. When she saw Chu Luo, she smiled and praised her. “President Chu, I’m strictly following your instructions now. It’s working really well.”
After saying that, she even winked at her suggestively.
Chu Luo looked at her and deliberately asked with a straight face, “Are your eyes cramping?”
Yu Tong panicked. “No, no. President, have you forgotten what you promised us previously?”
“What is it?”
“The invitation to your wedding with CEO Li.”
Chu Luo smiled. Knowing that the Student Union cadres were waiting anxiously, she said, “They’ll be sent out in batches for the next two days. You should be able to receive it tomorrow.”
Yu Tong immediately gestured a victory sign.
“Yay!”
This made the students who heard their conversation die of jealousy.
Chu Luo left Imperial University and went to Blazing Glory’s headquarters.
Li Yan was already waiting for her in the headquarters restaurant.
The moment Chu Luo went over, the waiter served the dishes Li Yan had ordered first.
As Chu Luo ate, she said to him, “That phantom fish that has turned into a spirit secreted a lot of poison. Previously, we saw that the black aura he spat out was poison. However, when I placed the poison in his body with the poison buried in that Ink Feather fellow’s body, I was surprised to see that the
two kinds of poison dissected at the same time.”
Li Yan picked up a piece of food for her.
After Chu Luo ate it, she continued, “According to logic, this kind of phantom fish spirit won’t come to the continent. I suspect that it’s related to your investigation of the Ink Feather Organization.”
It was as if someone had deliberately sent this fish spirit to Chu Luo for her to study.
Li Yan paused with his chopsticks and frowned slightly.
After a while, he asked, “How long will you take to concoct the antidote? Can you directly put the poison in the phantom fish’s body into a person’s body?”
“No. The poison of Ink Feather members are all placed in the heart. The organs and blood vessels there are the most numerous and fragile. Once the phantom fish’s poison is put in, it’s very likely that the person will be poisoned to death by the phantom fish spirit’s poison before the other poison has
dissolved.”
Li Yan was silent for two seconds before picking up some food for her. “Eat first.”
Chu Luo nodded.
After dinner, the two of them went to the office on the top floor.
Secretary Tan immediately took a folder and reported.
“Master, this is the list of gifts tallied today.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she took it first and glanced at it.
She looked at Li Yan in surprise. “Why are there so many gifts?”
They were all congratulatory gifts from famous companies worldwide.
‘The congratulatory gifts that everyone had given them were definitely not ordinary. Most of them were antique jewelry and jade artifacts.
Li Yan only glanced at it before saying to Secretary Tan, “Tell them that Luoluo and I don’t need congratulatory gifts for our wedding. Blazing Glory has everything they have.”
Chu Luo looked at him with bright eyes. “These people want to attend our wedding, right?”
Chu Luo looked at Secretary Tan and asked, “How many companies sent congratulatory gifts recently?”
“Up to ten thousand.”
Chu Luo quietly placed the list on the desk and agreed with Li Yan. “Yan is right. We have everything they gave us. Even if we don’t, money can resolve it. After we accept these things, we still need to specially find a place to put them. It’s troublesome.”
Secretary Tan glanced at the two of them, nodded, and went out to handle this matter.
Li Yan was about to work when Chu Luo quickly asked, “Which floor is the gaming capsule on? I want to take a look.”
“The 53rd floor.”
Chu Luo nodded and walked out of the office.
Li Yan said from behind her, “Don’t stay too long.”
“know. I’ll come up at around ten.”
She then walked out of the office and took the elevator to the 53rd floor.
The 5oth to 55th floors of Blazing Glory belonged to the gaming department.
‘As programmers were more at ease, at least when Chu Luo walked out of the stairs, she bumped into two people who were digging their eye boogers.
‘When the two of them saw Chu Luo, they froze as if someone had pressed the pause button.
The three of them stared at each other for a few seconds. Then, the two of them turned around and ran back as if they had seen a ghost. As they ran, they shouted,
“Owww… The CEO’s wife is here.”
Chu Luo: “…”
Other than the gaming capsule research room, there were a few other research rooms on this floor.
The people here were all big shots in the industry, but they were used to day and night being inverted and having a sloppy appearance. They thought that since there weren’t any beauties here, they didn’t have to pay attention to their image.
Unexpectedly, a super beauty came tonight.
‘The super beauty was also their CEO’s wife.
‘When Chu Luo walked over, the doors of all the research rooms opened a crack. Then, a group of programmers squeezed at the door to peek at Chu Luo.
A row of black lines appeared on Chu Luo’s forehead.
‘The programmers were excited to see Chu Luo walking over.
“Since the CEO’s wife is also a researcher in the gaming capsule, does that mean that she will come to our floor from time to time?”
“Definitely. Didn’t Imperial University say last time that Chu Luo has a very important position in the gaming capsule R&D team? She will definitely come over occasionally.”
At this point, the thought of giving the beautiful lady a good impression flashed across their hearts.
Chu Luo didn’t know what everyone was thinking, but when she came later, she indeed didn’t see the programmers looking sloppy again.
‘When Chu Luo entered the research and development room of the gaming capsule, a group of technicians was surrounding the gaming capsule, adjusting the data.
‘When Professor Wu saw her coming, he quickly said, “Little Chu, you came at the right time.”
Chu Luo walked over and Professor Mongla said first, “Chu, we encountered a little trouble when we were doing the experiment today. The experiment didn’t succeed.”
“What trouble?”
Chu Luo took the experimental data from Professor Wu’s hand and quickly scanned it. She immediately found the key. “You didn’t use a medicine bag?”
“That’s right,” Professor Wu said. “Professor Mongla suggested that we try without using medicine bags, but this attempt failed.”
Professor Mongla looked apologetic and disappointed. “I thought that our holographic technology could connect the human brain to the game world. I was too naive.”
Chu Luo glanced at Professor Mongla and said in a relaxed tone, “It’s not that Professor Mongla is naive. This situation you envisaged will definitely happen in the future.”
It wasn’t that it couldn’t be done; it was just that they hadn’t reached that level yet.
Feeling comforted, Professor Mongla smiled. “Chu is right. The gaming capsule is in its first-generation now. Subsequently, there will be a second-generation, a third-generation… All the difficulties we encounter will be resolved.”
“That’s right.”
“Chu, but I’m really shocked. Why did the medicine bag you developed allow the experimental subject to smoothly enter the holographic game through brainwaves?”
“Because we used herbs that can stimulate brain cell activity, including herbs that relaxes the brain.”
“The cerebral cell activity agent that you and those brilliant professors and doctors studied.”
“That’s right.”
Professor Mongla gave Chu Luo a thumbs up and praised, “Chu, you’re amazing.”
Chu Luo smiled and suddenly thought. “Where’s the experimental subject who had a problem?”
“In the lounge beside. That person kept mumbling that he was dizzy and had been lying for a few hours.”
‘As Professor Wu spoke, he led Chu Luo to the lounge.
Professor Mongla immediately followed.
‘The experimental subject who had come over today was a boy who looked to be 16 or 17 years old. He was lying there quietly with a pale face at this moment.
Chu Luo glanced at the boy and said to the two professors, “His mental strength is a little weak.”
“How could you tell?”
“He’s obviously an Internet addict and lacks exercise.”
“Then… can the medicine packet you developed connect him to the holographic game?”
“Yes, but such people have lower adaptability, especially just after exiting or entering the game. They will feel dizzy for five to ten minutes..”
