I built the Black Tower City in Sumeru.

Chapter 29: Another lottery draw, Ruan Mei is stolen.

Chen Bo slammed the blueprints onto the table: "This is the after-sales upgrade I promised. This machine can increase your production speed tenfold."

Dolly's eyes lit up, and she was about to reach out to touch it when Chen Bo took the drawing back.

"I'll give you the stuff for free, but I have one condition." Chen Bo held up one finger, "I want an advance on my dividends for the next three months."

Dolly's smile froze, and she jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "Advance payment? You're robbing me! Do you know how hard it is to do business these days? Do you know how important cash flow is? No way, I can only give you the dividends for these few days at most, not a penny more."

"Dolly, you know how important it is to improve efficiency," Chen Bo said. "Right now, it's a situation where supply can't meet demand. The sooner we increase productivity, the sooner we can earn more Mora."

After haggling for more than half an hour, Dolly finally gave Chen Bo an advance of one month's share of the profits.

Five million Mora!

This amount of money is enough to solve the parts problem.

And it also allows you to participate in an unprecedented grand prize draw.

the other side.

Inside the laboratory of the Wise Theory School.

Lyra was standing in front of a five-meter-tall Relic Guardian, which was painted a bright silver-gray.

Strangers wouldn't recognize this as a guardian of the ruins.

Of course, those familiar with the site can immediately recognize it as the Guardian of the Ruins.

"Father, the sensor has been debugged." Leila said to the middle-aged man behind her.

The sage nodded in satisfaction: "Very good, the championship of this competition is rightfully yours."

"However, there is still a noteworthy opponent this time, and that is the student from the bio-theory school. The teacher who made the parts he ordered said that he had never seen them before."

"Just a biology freshman," Lyra said calmly. "I don't think a few novel ideas are anything special."

The wise man of the Wise School was displeased: "How many times have I told you, pride comes before a fall, and never underestimate your opponent."

Leila: "Understood, Father."

Of course, that's just what I said.

With his father's help, what resources could that poor student from the "Wonderful Theory" school have to compete with him?

the other side.

Back in his room, Chen Bo opened the system panel.

In the past four days, I have completed the running task ten times and the 24-hour study task three times.

This time, receiving five million Mora means completing fifty Mora-earning missions.

That means there are a total of 63 chances to win a prize.

"63 pulls, surely I'll get something good by now?"

Chen Bo rubbed his hands together, feeling both expectant and a little nervous.

The drop rate for learning tasks is very high, a full 10%. (90% junk, 9% tech artifact samples, 1% random tech blueprints).

The drop rate for running and earning Mora is very low, only 1%.

Sixty draws with a 1% chance of success, and three draws with a 10% chance of success.

The probability of withdrawing funds is extremely high.

Hopefully, this time they'll release a suitable gold color.

Start by drawing from the ones with lower drop rates.

Chen Bo immediately ordered a ten-pull.

"Let's do sixty draws first to raise the probability of getting the minimum guarantee."

My first 10-pull didn't yield any gold items.

All of them were white shooting stars.

Well, this time the trash is a bit too strange.

Blue and white JK pleated skirts, dresses, Chinese cheongsams, lace camisoles, and even a few pieces of underwear with very little fabric.

No, they went to rob a women's clothing store?

"System, tell me honestly, did you go to a clothing store in a commercial district on some planet to buy merchandise? Or are you, as a system, actually a pervert by nature?"

The system did not respond.

But no answer is also an answer.

The second ten-pull.

The moment the light shone, a blinding golden ray pierced Chen Bo's vision.

"Withdrawal successful!"

Chen Bo's spirits lifted.

As the light dissipated, one after another light appeared in Chen Bo's field of vision.

[Obtained: Ruan Mei's Long Qin (made of precious wood, with a calming effect)]

[Obtained: Ruan Mei's Embroidered Shoes (Special Silk, Fragrant with Every Step)]

[Obtained: Ruan Mei's light blue cheongsam (with built-in temperature control)]

……

Wait a minute, did they steal from Nguyen Mai's house this time?

Chen Bo looked at the golden spot of light.

It was a transparent petri dish containing a semi-transparent, gelatinous, liquid-like substance that was gently wriggling within the dish, as if it were alive.

[Miracle Skin: Ruan Mei's latest experimental creation. Developed by fusing ancient beast genes with genes from various abundant creatures.]

[Features: Possesses extremely strong self-repair capabilities, and can perfectly fuse with any biological, mechanical, or elemental creation to form realistic skin with a lifelike feel.]

[Note: This is Nguyen Mai's latest experimental result, and you saw it before Nguyen Mai did.]

Wow, this is the work of a big name in the field of bioalchemy.

This is a perfect match for Chen Bo of the Shenglun School.

It's perfect for using as a skin for Nasita's doll.

It's absolutely perfect.

However, I saw what was going on before Nguyen Mai did.

the other side.

Nguyen Mai had just finished her work on the simulated universe and hurriedly returned to her laboratory.

That was the "all-purpose skin" she had cultivated after spending several system days and integrating thousands of gene sequences.

These materials are extremely rare, and we even had the company's help to gather them, encompassing all life samples that have received the blessing of abundance.

Including the people from the Fairy Boat.

Biological samples of the enlightened beings were also included, but only a small number of them. Some of these samples were collected by the company on the battlefield, while others were purchased by the company.

Ancient beast materials are extremely valuable.

The goal of this bio-alchemy project is to create unconscious destiny samples.

It has no consciousness, no soul, but it contains the power of destiny.

However, when she walked up to the culture tank, she froze.

The tank that originally held the active tissues was now empty; even the petri dishes were gone.

Now, Nguyen Mai is not even sure if her experiment was successful.

Nguyen Mai frowned slightly, but she did not panic. Instead, she first checked the laboratory's monitoring system and biosensors.

everything is normal.

Without any intruders, the thing simply vanished into thin air.

She took out her phone, snapped a picture of the empty culture tank, and captioned it with a simple message: "Experimental subject disappeared, cause unknown."

I posted it on my WeChat Moments.

A few seconds later, a communication device with a black doll-like head popped up.

It's the Black Tower.

Nguyen Mai answered the call immediately.

"Ruan Mei, something happened to you too?" Black Tower's voice was also angry: "A big thief came out of the space station. He stole one of my dolls not long ago."

Ruan Mei asked in confusion, "Strange, who could steal things from the Black Tower Space Station? Could it be a Commander?"

"Even other Fate Envoys couldn't do that," Black Tower said. "After the doll was stolen, I asked Screws to upgrade the space station's systems and left a fourth mirror for constant monitoring."

"Even a powerful figure at the Envoy level couldn't possibly leave no trace of their destiny, unless the one who made the move was also a genius."

"It might even be Aha."

Ruan Mei did not deny this speculation. The only person capable of stealing things right under the nose of the Black Tower and her own eyes could be another genius, or someone even stronger.

Black Tower snorted: "You'd better check quickly; perhaps more than one thing is missing."

While answering the phone, Nguyen Mai walked and unknowingly arrived at her room.

Then, he was taken aback.

The room felt too empty.

The rack and the clothes on it were all gone.

A slight ripple finally appeared on Ruan Mei's usually calm face.

"Black Tower, I think you're right."

"What? You discovered you've lost something else?"

Nguyen Mai: "All the clothes I changed out of yesterday... are gone."
