Yang Yi continued testing the armor.“Can you write?”The armor nodded.But its meaning had to be read in reverse—so it couldn’t write!“Retract the spikes.”All the spikes on the armor sank back in; the longest were nearly twenty centimeters long.“Extend the spikes.”The spikes retracted again.At this point, Yang Yi could confirm the armor had self-awareness—but it was extremely rebellious. It would always act opposite to whatever command it was given!He glanced around and spotted a wooden barrel not far away. He walked backward a few steps, grabbed it, and placed it in front of the armor.“Attack this barrel with your left fist!”The armor didn’t move.“Do not attack this barrel with your left fist!”The moment he finished speaking, the armor punched. The barrel exploded into splinters on the spot.“Punch me with your left fist.”On impulse, Yang Yi issued that order—and the armor immediately fired a punch straight at his face.Luckily, he’d been observing with his third eye the whole time. He dodged with all his strength just in time.Because the armor’s left arm had detached—flying off like a rocket fist. Behind Yang Yi, it blasted a big hole into the wall of Suna’s room.Then the arm flew back in reverse, snapping back into place like nothing had happened.Yang Yi’s expression grew colder. He realized he had misjudged things.This armor wasn’t simply rebellious—it was hostile toward him. Like a spiteful child, it liked doing the opposite of what it was told.But if the opposite meant attacking him, it would gladly comply!Fortunately, the armor only acted according to direct instructions. It wouldn’t attack on its own—otherwise things would be troublesome.As for its autonomous actions, they were probably from persistent instructions. For example, if told “don’t follow XX,” it would probably follow them endlessly.Yang Yi didn’t continue testing. He immediately stored the armor in the Scorched Worm Ring and sent Suna a message.“Sorry, I accidentally made a hole in your room’s wall.But it’s fine—the bone arm will repair it soon!”Without needing a command, the Nyxstar had self-repair capabilities. The white bone arm filled the hole on its own, and no wind could possibly leak through.Though it did look like a big white patch.Suna didn’t get upset about such a trivial matter. Instead, she told Yang Yi to come to the lab.Soon, Yang Yi entered the ship and arrived at the lab.The first batch of charcoal liquor had finished brewing. Probably due to improvements in the process, it had become a craft charcoal liquor—but the quality was still excellent.【Name: Craft Charcoal Liquor】【Type: Consumable】【Quality: Fine】【Description: Higher purity than ordinary charcoal liquor. Do NOT drink in large amounts, or it will burn your body and cause drunkenness.Drinking a small amount increases cold resistance—you’ll sweat heavily even in deep winter. Highly flammable.】Yang Yi tried a small cup. His face instantly turned bright red as sweat poured down. Its cold-resistance effect was several levels stronger than the old charcoal liquor, but the scorching, burning sensation over his whole body was also much stronger.Definitely something to sip slowly.If he could have mass-produced this back in the Extreme Winter Sea, he would’ve made an absolute fortune.But now, the liquor wasn’t worth that much. It actually had more value as a fuel.A ton of fire bananas could brew a little over 200 liters of craft charcoal liquor—not a high yield. After brief consideration, Yang Yi gave up the idea of selling it.Only when Shen Guanquan’s fire banana crops began bearing fruit would he consider sales.They had harvested two tons from the island before, with very few spoiled. Brewing 400 liters should be no problem—enough to serve as a long-term fuel source for the Nyxstar.When the oils were used up, they could use the liquor to make alcohol lamps or even blowtorches—very useful for the lab.Yang Yi thought that was all and turned to leave.“Wait!”Suna grabbed him.“What is it?”“That super magic potion—I've figured out the general idea. It’s made from some creature’s bodily fluid, most likely cerebrospinal fluid! So…”She looked embarrassed, hesitating.“So what?”“Can you let me extract a little of your cerebrospinal fluid?”“Goodbye!”Yang Yi strode out of the lab without looking back.“Wait—then let me draw mine instead! Use this syringe, about five milliliters.”Suna chased after him.Yang Yi froze. Slowly turning around, he saw Suna holding a special syringe—the needle was longer than a finger and glinted with cold light.“Is it ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) absolutely necessary?”“Yes.”Her attitude was firm.……A few minutes later, Yang Yi lay on that familiar metal table—he’d been on it so many times—but this time facedown.Suna dabbed charcoal liquor onto his lower back to disinfect it, preparing to pierce his spine and extract cerebrospinal fluid.Medically, this wasn’t a rare procedure. Afterward, the patient must rest in the same position for several hours.But for Yang Yi, he probably wouldn’t even need to lie down.As for why he had to be the one punctured—the reason was simple: Yang Yi couldn’t perform the procedure himself. If he accidentally pierced the wrong spot, it would be bad.“Be gentle!”Yang Yi felt cold sweat forming, anxiety crawling up his spine.Right now, even if someone held a blade to his neck, he wouldn’t blink—but this kind of medical procedure triggered an inexplicable fear.“Relax! Back when I practiced injections, all the patients praised me!”“Praised you for what?”“For being pretty!”Yang Yi’s heart skipped a beat. He suddenly wanted to run.And she was still an intern…“This isn’t your first time doing this kind of procedure, right?”“Don’t worry—I had excellent grades. And I’m very hands-on!”“You—”Before he finished, Suna had already inserted the needle. A sharp, bone-deep pain shot along his nerves.Goosebumps covered his whole body. He didn’t dare move.Fortunately, it ended quickly. In less than thirty seconds, Suna withdrew the syringe—she had drawn ten milliliters.Because Yang Yi’s physique was exceptionally strong—being a werewolf—his safe extraction volume was double that of a normal person.It was still within safe limits. Suna had no intention of harming him.Though she’d played a small trick—because the potion required Yang Yi’s cerebrospinal fluid for proper formulation, and even wolf hair as a catalyst.“Half an hour lying like this should be enough. The puncture has already stopped bleeding and begun healing.” She checked the wound on his back.Still, Yang Yi drank a regeneration potion, just in case.Like a log, he stayed face-down for half an hour before leaving. As he walked out, he silently vowed to visit the lab less often—especially when Suna called for him. He’d need to be cautious next time.But if she truly managed to create a potion that could restore magic energy, it would be incredible.Yang Yi’s combat power would increase drastically!For example, if he used Limb Enhancement on all four limbs, his Strength attribute would rise by 3 points—three points beyond the transcendent level of 10. His fighting ability would jump severalfold!
