Zhang Lisheng merely shrugged and did not comment anything about this ambitious person who claimed that she had the courage but actually lost the courage and even left Shrimp B1 Island after experiencing a hell-like disaster.

The wizard power in his body slowly flowed about, unable to be suppressed. His second transformation was close at hand but the only two transformed wizard gus that he had were hidden underground of the factory outside New York. In fact, at this time, it was also necessary for him to leave this island as soon as possible.

After a moment of silence, the young man asked abruptly, "Then, is there any ship coming tomorrow morning? It's December 22nd today and I promised my mom that I'm going back home for Christmas."Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

"Christmas? Oh, you've come to this biologist's paradise and yet you're still planning to go home for Christmas?" The tall and fat woman who was ridiculing Zhang Lisheng just now stepped in and reached out a hand before saying, "Young man, looks like you're very different from your emotionless supervisor. I've misunderstood you. Let's get to know each other. I'm Effiny Pigros, from the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Cornell University. "

Originally, Zhang Lisheng had no intention to give a damn to this crazy woman but when he heard her saying the rare surname of 'Pigros', he was stunned for a moment, before reaching out a hand. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Professor Effiny. I'm Stanford…"

"Oh, I know your background, young man. As two outstanding biologists, we shouldn't waste our time in ridiculing each other. Let continue your topic about the Emperor Molasses just now. I'm very interested. "External gene mutation induction phenomenon" in ancient biology that has been circulated in ancient and mysterious books. Once every sixty years? Once every sixty years, you said? Is that correct? So is this sixty years a fixed cycle?"

Zhang Lisheng opened his mouth and looked at the fat middle-aged woman who seemed to act very close to him now and turned to Steven to ask, "Professor, Professor Effiny and you are…"

"Well…" A rare and unwilling expression of reluctance appeared on Steven's face. "In terms of blood relationship, she's my younger sister."

"Oh, no wonder she'd be so full of utility and direct in order to achieve the purpose," Zhang Lisheng muttered and nodded. "Professor Effiny, the reason the Emperor Molasses will only appear once in every sixty years is because in the Chinese civilization, sixty is a single component number, representing a cycle of everything in the world from its beginning to its end…"

Based on the amazing performance of the young man not long ago, as he interpreted the sand monster from the perspective of Chinese mythology, more and more scientists began to surround and listen to the mystery of the ancient civilization of the East.


Even though it was difficult for them to truly understand the essence of civilization because of the different roots of civilization, it still sounded very interesting to them.

After all, the short-term experience they encountered on Shrimp B1 Island had already overturned the inherent knowledge of these scientists on many things. Now, they urgently needed a new perspective to examine this world that was completely different from Earth.

The reason the scientists on the island paid attention to Zhang Lisheng was because he had done his best to portray his ability without concealing himself. Now, as he wished, unwittingly, his story became more thought out and meticulous.

Even though the young man who was surrounded on all sides was calm and composed, it was inevitable for him to have some young and tender looks between his eyes, making him stand out among the doctors and professors, of which the youngest was in their 30s.

In the command room of the gathering place's bunker, after watching Zhang Lisheng's youthful face from the huge projection screen on the wall for a few minutes, Rowling suddenly said, "Who knows? Maybe he's just a rare genius that is hard to come by in a hundred or even a thousand, just like Newton and Einstein. What do you guys think?" 

"Yes, General!" Adjutant Race stood to attention and replied concisely.

Then, a beautiful black female second lieutenant raised her opinions. "An Einstein that has Bruce Lee's talent who can roam freely outside for four days without any supply safe and sound on this hell-like supernatural realm's island is not just a rare genius who is hard to come by in a thousand years, Sir General."

"Looks like you don't agree with me, Second Lieutenant Alison." Rowling looked at the projected image on the wall and turned silent for a while before smiling wryly. "Actually, I don't believe in what I said just now as well, but this is already the most reasonable explanation…"

"General, if you'd allow me, we can find a reason to temporarily detain him and do some investigations first. All of these are just too strange, and I intuitively feel that he is a very dangerous person…" When Alison heard the supreme commander in the gathering place saying just that, she stood up straight and said with haste.

"I really admire young people like you, who just dares to do whatever you like." A solitary look appeared on Rowling's face. Turning off the projection, he glanced at the young female officer who was wearing a tailored uniform brimming with energy and vitality. "As a duty officer who possesses a B-level query right in the gathering place, you should know that this Mr. Zhang Lisheng who may appear to be young but actually is something else is not that simple, right?"

Alison did not reply immediately and just nodded her head silently. All of a sudden, she said, "I'm a soldier, not a politician, Sir General!"

"You're correct, Second Lieutenant. We are soldiers, US soldiers who defend the territory of the United States of America and the safety of the people!" Rowling was stunned for a moment before a series of expressions glossed across his face. A determined smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. "Besides, I'm already a mouse who has fallen into a plastic bucket so what else is there for me to be afraid of right now? Lace, I order…"

"Knock knock knock…" Suddenly, a series of knocks interrupted the general's words. A pale civilian secretary came in and said with a low voice, "S-Sir, the Ministry of Defense's internal investigation bureau has arrived and has entered the bunker."

"Thank you, Sherry." The strength that Rowling had just summoned disappeared without a trace. The old man smiled bitterly. "Looks like God doesn't intend to give an elderly person like me a chance to take the risk anymore. Lace, Alison, you may retreat. I want to be alone for this final moment…"

A few minutes later, the supreme commander of Shrimp B1 Island's gathering place was dismissed and had to embark on an armed helicopter flying directly to Washington in desolation.

At the same time, in a biological laboratory in the bunker, Zhang Lisheng was energetically using silver metal pliers to carefully hold a pea-sized, green-colored ball that continued to emit faint mist on the surface as he observed it meticulously under the spotlight.

"What is this, Lisheng? I know that you must already have an answer in your heart so don't just hide it there. Although this small bean is a property that belongs to the US government, I'm the one who discovered it first. In other words, I have the right to study it first so if you still continue to stay mum, you better watch out for I'm going to take it away from you."

"I can't be too sure yet on what it is, Professor Effiny. I can't confirm it yet. Let me think… Let me think about it a little more…" Amidst the face of Effiny's threat, Zhang Lisheng just brushed it off. "Which part of the sand monster have you found this, this small bean?"

"In truth, the first person who saw it was my student, Justin, and Dr. Donna," Upon hearing this, Effiny who claimed to have found the green ball replied without hesitation. "Justin, tell Mr. Lisheng how you managed to find this magical small bean with Dr. Donna."

Justin, who stood beside and formed a vivid contrast with his crude supervisor, nodded and answered orderly. "It's like this, Mr. Lisheng. Dr. Donna wanted to know what kind of voice box the sand monster has so she borrowed the portable X-ray full scanner from me…"

"The X-ray full scanner? What's that?"

"An instrument that uses X-rays to perform a deep scan of the target. Well, it's actually just a miniature version of the CT machine usually used in the medical industry."

"Oh, what the hell? Professor? Why don't we have this X-ray full scanner in our lab?" Zhang Lisheng, who had already killed eight spiritual monsters on Shrimp B1 Island with his own hands, had never seen such a mysterious ball before said with a sad tone.

"That's the instrument commonly used in the study of biomedical engineering. It is of little use in the field of general biology, not mentioning that it's very expensive on top of that," Steven shrugged and answered in a slightly impatient tone. "Alright, Lisheng. Stop changing the topic. Let Justin continue and then tell your conclusion."

"Oh, sorry, Justin, you can continue."

"Okay, what happened was actually very simple. Due to the reason that the operation of the instrument is a bit difficult, Donna and I climbed on the neck of that sandman and as a result, we found this small bean at the junction of its neck and chest. "

"The junction of its neck and chest? Looks like this poor sandman had already prepared to die together with us. I wonder why it didn't do that in the end…" Zhang Lisheng muttered to himself and gently placed the green ball back on a glass tray before saying in affirmation, "Professor, Professor Effiny, in my opinion, this must be the Gold Core in the legendary Chinese myths."

"Gold Core? But this is obviously a green bean!" Effiny asked with a suspicious look, as if she saw through the misleadingness of the young man.

"Oh, you've misunderstood, Professor Effiny. Gold Core is a noun, like a car. In Chinese mythology, it refers to the 'center' of vitality after the grass and the mountains have turned into a living being."

"The 'center' of vitality? Is that an organ? Like a human heart? Let's say that the fog rising from this bean, er no, Gold Core is like the blood made by the heart, but it's just in a gaseous form… Oh if you take a look closely, it really looks like a heart! But then again, that sand monster is already dead so why is the Gold Core still beating?" After listening to Zhang Lisheng's explanation, Effiny strode up to the young man's side and snatched the glass tray with the green ball, before observing it carefully and making an incessant remark.

(T/N: We all know that blood is not made by the heart but the author wrote so in this chapter so I just translated it as it is)
