Skill extraction from Dragon Clan

Chapter 641 Hamburger Friends
The wave of biochemical monsters caused by a restaurant reservation has finally subsided.

Zheng Shu used his quarterly Mozoguaza reservation to invite Feimuto to a meal to make up for his "loss", which calmed his anger.

Leaving aside this little episode, Zheng Shu was quite curious about the results of Feimto's long period of retreat.

"Of course, if you say that you have spent so much time researching a new method to 'keep the shuttlecock from falling', I will beat you to death!"

Recalling the disaster that Fimto had caused that almost destroyed the world, Zheng Shu's face turned a little dark.

"Hahahaha… How is that possible? You're overthinking it."

"Then stop looking at me! Look straight at me, you bastard!"

Seeing that Feimuto's eyes were wandering seriously, Zheng Shu almost couldn't hold back and punched him again, scaring Feimuto so much that he dared not hide anymore.

"No, no, don't worry. This will definitely not cause a world disaster. On the contrary, the reason I spent so much time this time is to find a way to save the world."

"Save the world? Why does it sound so strange coming from your mouth?"

Zheng Shu raised his eyebrows and retracted his fist. Although Feimto was a quirky guy, at least he would not lie about such an important matter.

"It's true. Although it's just a possibility, at least it's better to take precautions before it happens." Feimto said with a wry smile.

Seeing this guy trying to hide something, Zheng Shu frowned and asked, "Is it very troublesome?"

"Not really. It's mainly because of the shortage of 'raw materials', so the production can't keep up." Feimuto sighed and leaned back in his chair with relaxation.

Zheng Shu glanced at him, not interested in continuing the topic, and instead asked about something that had concerned him more in the past few days:
"What do you think about the matter of the King of Despair?"

"You finally know. Actually, you don't have to take this matter too lightly. Just do it according to your own intuition and ideas when the time comes."

Feimto became interested again when talking about this. He crossed his legs, stroked his chin with one hand, and looked at Zheng Shu with a weird smile.

Because most of Fimto's face was covered by the iron-gray mask, Zheng Shu didn't quite understand what his smile meant.

"Oh? Didn't you tell him that you wanted to use me as your last resort?"

"Yes, for that guy, what you did is a kind of insurance, so don't be too deliberate."

Glancing at Feimto and seeing this guy's attitude, Zheng Shu knew that there seemed to be something else he didn't know.

"Forget it, it's so mysterious. If you don't want to talk about it, then don't say it."

Zheng Shu seemed to have thought of something, and stopped dwelling on these things. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he changed the subject:
"Anyway, I'm going to have a lot of trouble this time, so it's okay for you to help me for a while before that happens."

Femto's face fell when he heard that and he sighed, "Okay, okay, it was pretty much the same as before anyway, what do you want me to help you with?"

"Nothing. I have an idea that I need your help to research. Also, I want to borrow your laboratory. The laboratories that can be found outside are not accurate enough to provide me with effective assistance."

"You should have told me earlier!"

When Feimto heard this, he became happy instead. He ran to Zheng Shu, put his arms around his neck, and looked like he was hugging his shoulders.

"There are still unknown things that need to be studied. This is really... Even if you don't say it, I will strongly request to get involved. Do you want me to ask Arikira to come along?"

"No, I just have an idea. I'm not sure if it's right yet. I've studied it for a long time but still have no clue..."

When Zheng Shu said this, Feimuto's eyes lit up: "So difficult? That makes it even more exciting! Come on, follow me into the house!"

Zheng Shu did not resist and followed Feimtola's force into the laboratory.

……

……

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

Zheng Shu finally came out of Feimto's laboratory. In addition to resting his brain, he also received a piece of news.

In a public ward of Santa Alanya Central Hospital, when Zheng Shu arrived here, it was already full of patients.

It seems that these people are in good condition and don't seem to have suffered any serious injuries.

This is indeed the case. According to the information Zheng Shu obtained from Stephen who contacted him, Leo seemed to be involved in a mass coma incident involving thousands of people.

If it was just a coma, it would not attract Libra's attention, but there was also collective amnesia, and everyone lost any memory of the four weeks before the incident.

The combination of the two makes the matter quite tricky, as it makes it impossible to know what exactly happened at the center of the riots.

If this was done intentionally by someone, it means that even if they do anything bad in public, they don't have to worry about witnesses.

All the patients in this ward were in similar conditions. Although they did not suffer any physical injuries, they all lost nearly a month's memory for unknown reasons.

In order to prevent any sequelae, although no injuries can be detected at the moment, they are still hospitalized for observation.

When Zheng Shu heard Stephen's description, he felt it was quite familiar. After careful recollection, he remembered the relevant plot of the original book.

The cause of the incident was probably that Leo met an alien named Naji who looked like a mushroom and particularly loved eating hamburgers.

Naji↑

The race that Naji belongs to is not good at fighting, but they can still live quite happily and can even be described as heartless.

The reason why they can have such a mentality is entirely due to the special abilities of their race.

In addition to having no bones in their bodies and being able to withstand extremely strong blunt force attacks, the Naji race also has a special characteristic.

Once too much "stress"-like stuff accumulates in their mind or body, a special kind of spores will be produced in their bodies. When their mind or body can't bear the "pressure" from the outside world, they will expel these things from the body to protect themselves.

These sprayed spores have the effect of making people unconscious and lose their memory. The greater the pressure, the stronger the effect of the sprayed spores will be.

Using this method, Naji's race can live heartlessly.

Because whenever you encounter an enemy you can't defeat, you can spray spores to escape from danger.

However, the disadvantage of this ability is also obvious, that is, the user himself will also be affected.

Zheng Shu suspected that spores like these, which were effective regardless of race and had absolutely no side effects, were actually a special kind of "power".

After taking a quick look around the ward, Zheng Shu found the bed where Leo was lying.

Of course, the reason why Zheng Shu was able to find him so quickly was that in addition to losing his memory, Leo also suffered serious head injuries for unknown reasons.

So this guy should be the only patient in the entire ward who is placed in an intensive care bed.

"I heard that in addition to amnesia, you also suffered a head injury? You have such bad luck. Do you remember who hit you?" Zheng Shu casually put the fruit in his hand on the cabinet next to Leo.

"Mr. Zheng Shu, you're here too... Oh, it's such a headache. I don't remember what happened at all." Leo smiled and nodded at Zheng Shu. "I can only blame myself for my bad luck. Fortunately, the doctor said that the injury is not serious and will not affect my daily life, so I will be discharged in two or three days."

Even though his brain suddenly lost his recent memories, Leo remained very calm.

In fact, it's not just Leo, other patients in the ward are like this as well. Zheng Shu speculates that it's probably because the spores secreted by Naji, in addition to causing amnesia and coma, also have some sedative functions.

“Actually, even though my mind was completely blank, it didn’t have much of an impact.

To fill in my memory gaps, many people came to visit me during this period and told me many things.

But their words were like throwing pebbles into the fog, and had no effect at all."

Listening to Leo's description, Zheng Shu blinked but didn't say much.

He did remember the plot of the original novel. The reason for such a large-scale amnesia incident was that two freight forwarders who liked gambling also discovered Naji's special abilities, so they wanted to kidnap him to obtain the spores.

Their method of obtaining spores was too simple and crude. They used blunt objects such as baseball bats to beat Naji repeatedly, trying to break through his "stress" threshold.

During this process, Leo was unfortunately attacked in advance and his hands were tied.

In order to stop the atrocities of these two guys, Leo used the power of God's artificial eye to briefly interfere with their vision.

But because his hands and feet were tied, he could not escape, so he was beaten on the head by the two men who reacted.

It was because of seeing Leo being beaten that Naji couldn't bear it anymore and released the strongest spores.

Given the friendship between Zheng Shu and Leo, if he encountered such a thing, Zheng Shu could definitely help him vent his anger.

However, Zheng Shu has no such idea for the time being. As for the reason...

"Abba, Ababa, Abba..."

“Aaaaaaaah…”

The doctor at the side pushed two patients past the ward where Leo was. Through the glass, one could see that these two patients looked like fools.

"Ah, those two people are also patients in our batch, but their memory decline is more serious, and it seems that they have regressed to their infancy."

Looking at the two people being pushed away, Leo unconsciously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thanking his luck:
"The doctor said it might be because these two people were at the center of the outbreak, so they were affected so badly... There are actually people who are so miserable. It seems that I am still relatively lucky."

"Ah, yes." Zheng Shu glanced at the two people who were pushed away, "After all, good people will be rewarded."

Since the culprit had become like that, Zheng Shu naturally showed mercy and let them go.

The two chatted for a while, Zheng Shu was slightly stunned, and a gossipy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"Okay, since you're fine, I don't need to stay here. I was holed up in the lab for the past month anyway, so is there anything we can recall about each other?"

"Wow, Mr. Zheng Shu, what you said really makes me sad."

Zheng Shu casually picked up an apple from the fruit basket on the cabinet and placed it in Leo's hand, then stood up from the chair:

"Whatever you say, I'm leaving now and won't disturb you from meeting your little girlfriend."

"Eh? What girlfriend?"

Leo was stunned, but saw Zheng Shu had already turned his back to him, waved his hand, and left the ward.

After Zheng Shu walked out of the ward, he looked at the blonde, green-eyed girl hiding behind the door. He smiled at her and nodded slightly as a greeting, then left.

The girl looked at Zheng Shu blankly and nodded to him. She felt a little overwhelmed as she watched him leave. Then, as if she remembered something, she cautiously poked her head to look inside the ward.

In the ward, Leo was still thinking about what Zheng Shu said when he left, and then he saw Xiaobai poking his head out from behind the door.

Looking at the other party's curious look, Leo couldn't help but smile, then he understood what Zheng Shu said and his face blushed slightly.

Xiaobai also found Leo in the ward at this time. He looked at him with a happy smile and walked briskly to his side.

……

……

A few days later, because the hospital ward was overcrowded, Leo was discharged smoothly.

Because Zapp said that he ate hamburgers almost every day during the month when he lost his memory, Leo inexplicably went to the hamburger shop and bought a set meal.

As soon as he took a bite, tears unconsciously flowed from Leo's eyes, as if reminding him that he had forgotten something important.

"Huh? That's weird. Is a cheeseburger the kind of food that makes people want to cry?"

Just as Leo was leaning against the wall in a depressed mood, an alien with a mushroom head suddenly ran towards him from across the street.

Bang!

Because he didn't look at the road when crossing, the mushroom man was hit by a car and rolled right in front of the stunned Leo.

Just when Leo was thinking about whether to call an ambulance, the mushroom man stood up as if nothing had happened, drooling and looking at Leo:
"Excuse me, can I have a bite of that burger?"

"Are you willing to risk your life just to eat?!" Leo was suddenly stunned just after he finished complaining, "Huh? Why do I feel like I've complained about you like this before?"

"? This should be the first time we meet, but please don't mind these little things, just give me the hamburger." The mushroom man expressed his obsession with the hamburger.

"...that's fine."

Leo very naturally handed over the extra burger that he had bought for some reason.

"My name is Leonardo Wojciech, what's yours?"

"Yamagulanav Losotham Up-ri Nagi. Just call me Nagi, Leonardo Hamburger."

In mid-air, Zheng Shu looked at this scene, smiled slightly, and left.
