Chapter 246: Chapter 122: Transformation—In the Name of the Moon, I’ll Punish You

“Ahem… now that everyone is familiar with the names, let’s discuss the next steps of the operation.” Gu Ningzhi said calmly, despite Li You’s intense scrutiny. “Look at this distribution map. Everyone will focus on key areas…”

When Li You arrived, he’d already forced and coerced Gu Ningzhi into revealing the main “theme” of this “operation.” His heart was tense, thinking the matter was of great importance. However, seeing Gu Ningzhi allocate personnel so irresponsibly, he was left speechless.

“We don’t have enough people…” Luo Xin said, resting her chin on her hands, her rose-colored nails tapping the map. There were only six of them, but they needed to cover eleven locations, none of which were close by. How could they possibly manage it all?

Gu Ningzhi, taking the role of a hands-off boss, fixed his gaze on Su Jiameng, making it clear: “It’s your turn, kid!”

Su Jiameng mused for a moment. This operation not only concerned the conspiracy and lives of these escapees but also her Plane mission. A high completion rate would mean generous rewards, allowing her to purchase more items with the extra Plane Points.

“I’ll handle these… on aerial defense!” Su Jiameng circled a few closer points. Although aerial sniping wasn’t her forte, it was her favorite because the thrill of shooting and headshotting targets was just too exhilarating!

However, aerial sniping had its drawbacks. Often, targets would hide inside buildings, and relying solely on tools like heat-scan couldn’t ensure success, potentially harming innocents. This kind of task required skill and experience!

Given the high technical demand, Li You and Gu Ningzhi eyed her skeptically, clearly lacking trust. Only her butler believed in her, his gaze full of determination and trust.

“Trust me, the technical quality is absolutely up to par!” Su Jiameng raised her hand weakly, hoping they could see the sincerity in her eyes.

No matter how firmly Su Jiameng spoke, doubt far outweighed trust among them.

Additionally, if they were easily swayed by the queenly aura emanating from 16-year-old Su Jiameng’s innocent face… well, the world’s average IQ would indeed be concerning.

“Do your best; this is a matter of life and death, don’t push yourself.” Gu Ningxuan was the first to speak among them, offering both advice and encouragement, essentially telling her to measure her capabilities carefully before acting.

Su Jiameng discerned the meaning in his words, and compared to Gu Ningzhi’s blatant suspicion, Gu Ningxuan seemed much kinder.

“I understand.” Su Jiameng nodded, agreeing with him. With responsibilities divided, the next steps were simple.

But when Su Jiameng counted the disguise capsule pills, she found one missing… it was all Gu Ningzhi’s fault for pulling in Li You without warning, causing a shortage of her pre-prepared pills…

Guan Changxi noticed what was troubling Su Jiameng and proactively handed his capsule to Li You.

Seeing Li You’s puzzled eyes, Changxi explained calmly, “This is a drug that can change your appearance and shape quickly. I heard from the master… someone like you would surely face trouble if your involvement were exposed.”

Li You skeptically eyed the capsule, incredibly doubtful of Changxi’s words. He was not a child who could be easily fooled into taking a substance of unknown origin, composition, and effect.

“Why don’t you take it?” Li You asked nonchalantly, his tone dripping with suspicion, even challenging.

“I’m an autonomous intelligent robot; changing my appearance is a simple matter.”

Changxi accessed a backup data file, chose a rough face, and applied it.

Everyone watched as Changxi’s face wriggled bizarrely, transforming into a completely different face within seconds, now bearing three frightening centipede-like scars across the rugged surface.

Li You was silent, as Su Jiameng found a safe enough place and took the capsule in front of everyone. After a short while, there was no reaction… Su Jiameng muttered, “Could this be a fake?”

Li You and Gu Ningzhi both had exasperated expressions, realizing that Su Jiameng also didn’t know what the drug was and had eagerly bought it based on others’ persuasion?

Before Gu Ningzhi could comment, Su Jiameng suddenly felt a tearing pain from within, the agony so sudden she wasn’t at all prepared, causing her to half-kneel on the ground.

“Miss Su!” Gu Ningxuan hurried forward in shock, wanting to help her up, but was stopped by Changxi. “Butler?”

“The drug is taking effect…” Guan Changxi said, watching as Su Jiameng’s petite half-kneeling figure grew larger, her clothes transforming with her. Witnessing the strange scene, Gu Ningzhi, Li You, and others watched with eyes slightly widened in amazement.

Then Guan Changxi coughed lightly and said, “This universe is far more expansive than we imagined, with all sorts of oddities emerging. There’s no need to be so surprised, it’s merely a capsule that can change appearances…”

Even as Changxi said this, when he saw Su Jiameng’s final form, he couldn’t help but be taken aback.

Finally feeling the internal pain subside, Su Jiameng stood up, leaning on her back, and complained, “Damn it, no one mentioned this thing would be so weird after taking it… Huh? It seems everyone got shorter?” (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.
