Chapter 946 Bad taste

Shortly after Zhou Luosen left the smelting area, Lan Ziqing happily pushed open the door of the smelting area.

His face, which usually had a bit of cynicism, was now filled with unconcealable excitement and anticipation, and his eyes were sparkling with eagerness to try.

Obviously, Zhou Luosen must have boasted about his amazing power after being enhanced in front of him, and praised the enhancement to the skies.

However, given Zhou Luosen's mean-spirited personality, he certainly didn't mention a single word about the excruciating torture he experienced during the strengthening process.

Soon, with Lan Ziqing full of anticipation, he personally experienced the heart-wrenching strengthening process.

When the intense pain hit him like a tide, his face, which was originally full of expectation, was instantly distorted. Only then did he realize that he had been badly betrayed by his bad friend Zhou Luosen.

I don’t know if it’s because they have followed Qin Zhong for a long time, but the way these old brothers deal with people has more or less been infected with Qin Zhong’s bad taste.

They seem to particularly enjoy seeing others embarrassed when they make the same mistakes they did.

So, when Lan Ziqing dragged his tired body out of the smelting area and Wu Gouzi came in, the eager expression on Wu Gouzi's face was exactly the same as Lan Ziqing's, both of them were full of anticipation and a bit of innocent excitement.

In this way, one after another, the male members who remained in the Yiyang gathering place experienced this painful baptism.

What made Qin Zhong laugh and cry the most was that even Wang Boshen, the last one to come in, the usually most astute guy, had no idea that he would have to endure such severe pain during the strengthening process.

It seems that the guys in front did a very good job of keeping the secret, and everyone tacitly chose to remain silent.

This may be the truest portrayal of human nature. People have to let others taste the suffering they have experienced in order to feel balanced.

Looking at these old brothers, each of them grimacing in pain but pretending to be calm, Qin Zhong couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

After the strengthening of all male members was completed, Qin Zhong faced the part that he was most looking forward to but also the most nervous about, which was to strengthen the three female members Xue Yue, Xiao Yingyong and Yang Han.

Originally, Hu Meng should have been on the list, but this smart woman seemed to have noticed something a long time ago. She refused to leave the laboratory on the grounds that there was important research going on. Qin Zhong couldn't force her, so he had to give up.

To be honest, Qin Zhong felt extremely complicated when facing these three girls.

Yang Han is already his woman, so there is no need to say more, but the other two, Xiao Yingyong is a little loli with bright eyes and white teeth, and innocent and lively, while Xue Yue is a cool and charming queen with a hot body.

As a normal man with a strong blood, it would be absolutely self-deception for Qin Zhong to say that he had no improper thoughts about them.

However, when he really had the opportunity to "take advantage" with justification, Qin Zhong hesitated.

Xiao Yingyong was just like his sister, he really couldn't bring himself to do it. Although there had always been some ambiguous feelings between him and Xue Yue, they never broke the window paper.

Besides, he already has three confidantes, Sun Xiaoyan, Chi Xinru and Yang Han, and Qin Zhong feels that it is enough. There is no need to have three palaces and six courtyards.

……

"It's so hot, so hot, why is it so hot here? I'm dying of heat..."

Xiao Yingyong skipped into the smelting area, sticking out her pink tongue and fanning herself with her hands.

Her big, watery eyes sparkled with excitement. "Brother Qin, how did you strengthen them? They became so powerful after going out that they can break trees with just one punch. I'm already stronger than them. If I strengthen myself a little more, hehe, I'll definitely be able to break even big rocks!"

After she finished speaking, she proudly waved her fist at Xue Yue and Yang Han, and asked playfully, "Sisters, don't you agree?"

"Um……"

Xue Yue and Yang Han smiled at each other, a hint of doting flashed in their eyes, and they nodded at the same time.

In the team, although Xiao Yingyong's strength is second only to Qin Zhong, because she is the youngest, everyone treats her as a little sister who needs care.

Especially Xue Yue and Yang Han, knowing that Qin Zhong loved Xiao Yingyong very much, they took even better care of her.

Hearing Xiao Yingyong's childish words, Qin Zhong shook his head helplessly.

When he looked up at Xue Yue and Yang Han, whether it was because of the high temperature in the smelting area or for other reasons, these two girls who were usually as cold as ice now had an attractive blush on their fair cheeks.

This sudden shyness was like the blooming of a winter plum blossom, so beautiful that Qin Zhong couldn't help but stare at it.

"It's over. It seems those bastards didn't even tell them to take off their clothes..."

Looking at the innocent and expectant expressions of the three girls, Qin Zhong suddenly felt a headache. He could fully imagine Zhou Luosen's group of bad friends hiding in a corner at this moment with what kind of obscene smiles on their faces.

Since these three girls don’t know that strengthening requires taking off all clothes, will it cause them to misunderstand if I suddenly make this request?

Yang Han was fine, after all, they had already had physical contact, so it didn't matter even if it was a misunderstanding.

But Xiao Yingyong has always been treated as his sister. If she misunderstands that he has ulterior motives, he will never be able to clear himself even if he jumps into the Yellow River. Not to mention that there is also Xue Yue, which makes the situation even more complicated.

"Brother Qin, what are you daydreaming about?"

Just as Qin Zhong was feeling apprehensive, a small, fair hand suddenly waved before his eyes. Xiao Yingyong approached Qin Zhong, pouted, and complained, "Brother Qin, it's so hot in here! Please help us strengthen our muscles quickly so we can go out and enjoy the air conditioning!"

Since the power system of the gathering place was restored, the living conditions in the entire base have become luxurious.

It is June and the weather is getting hotter. The sufficient electricity supply has made appliances such as air conditioners and refrigerators useful again.

"That...that..."

Facing three pairs of expectant eyes, Qin Zhong took a deep breath and spoke quickly, "Just like Zhou Luosen and the others, you need to take off your clothes before strengthening. Otherwise, the clothes will hinder the strengthening effect."

Qin Zhong's strengthening method is similar to the process of him swallowing metal. He uses gold elements to strengthen the target's bone structure.

But unlike him who directly swallowed the metal, Zhou Luosen and the others absorbed the metal elements through their skin in Qin Zhong's special field.

If there is clothing blocking the way, the absorption efficiency will be greatly reduced.

What's more troublesome is that the gold elements, which contain high temperature and destructive power, will burn the clothes the moment they come into contact with the body, and you will still be naked in the end.

"what!"

Upon hearing this request, the three girls' faces instantly turned red like ripe apples.

Xiao Yingyong was still young and shy, but she didn't think too much about it. Although Yang Han already had an intimate relationship with Qin Chong, she still lowered her head in shame.

Xue Yue, who already had a secret crush on Qin Zhong, felt her heart beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out of her chest, and even her ears were red.

"If you're worried, I can cover my eyes."

Qin Zhong quickly proposed a compromise, "But the clothes must be taken off, otherwise, it will really affect the strengthening effect... If you really feel embarrassed, you can wait and find other strengthening methods later..."
