Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow

"I understand!" Shiho Miyano said and ended the call.

After ending the call with Shiho Miyano, Li De contacted Victoria directly through the contract this time.

"Victoria!" Li De said.

"Master, what do you want?" Victoria asked immediately.

"Wait for me in the basement of the villa immediately!" Li De said and teleported himself back to the villa.

As soon as he appeared, he saw Victoria who was teleported back at the same time.

"Master, is there anything urgent?" Victoria asked as she followed Li De to the basement.

"Shiho needs Alpha's gene samples to strengthen her bloodline, so I'm going to notify Alpha and the others." Li De said immediately.

"Should they send the gene samples or come directly?" Victoria continued to ask.

"Come on, remember to bring Ita this time." Li De thought about it and said to Victoria.

"Are Elizabeth and Rose also called?" Victoria asked again.

"This. Let me ask Shiho first." Li De was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then sent a message to Shiho Miyano.

"Shiho, do Elizabeth and Rose need to come?"

"Master, I have the genetic samples of the two seniors." Shiho Miyano would not help Reed make any decisions, but just gave such an answer.

"Okay, you do your thing!" Reed ended the communication after saying that.

Then he said to Victoria: "They don't need to run again. After all, there must be someone in charge of the Midgar Capital. Also, tell Alpha that although the time of departure is only about one day, it needs to be arranged in advance.

If something happens temporarily, notify Elizabeth and let her come forward to deal with it. The next time the boundary gate is opened will be thirty days later, which is two hours later in the main world. Do you remember it clearly?"

"Yes, I remember it clearly." Victoria nodded directly after listening.

"Okay, then I will open the boundary gate now!" After saying that, the camouflaged slime on Reed's arm immediately began to spread to both sides under the control of the magic energy, revealing the tattoo of the boundary gate.

With Reed's magic energy infusion, a projection of the boundary gate appeared in front of the two.

After the projection was formed, the moment the door was pushed open, Victoria shot into the shadow world opposite the boundary gate.

After looking around, Victoria suddenly drew out her sword and cut a hole in her arm, spilling blood at the landing point.

Just when Reed was puzzled, Victoria shot through the boundary gate again and returned to Reed.

The next second, the boundary gate was broken.

"Master, I have passed the message to Alpha and the others. The boundary gate will open again in two hours. Except for Rose and Elizabeth, other contractors must gather together. The departure time is about one day. If there is something urgent, please ask Elizabeth to deal with it." Victoria reported to Reed before asking rationally.

"Can they find the location where you left the blood?" Reed couldn't help but ask with some concern.

"Don't worry, master, the location where the boundary gate opens is near the capital of Midgar. I can see the capital. After telling Alpha and the others that the location where the boundary gate opens is near the northwest suburbs of the capital, it is impossible for Delta's nose not to smell the blood I left." Victoria answered confidently.

"Well, since you said so, let's wait for the result in a month." Li De didn't say much after hearing this.

After all, if Victoria really notified them, it would be okay if they didn't stay in the real world.

After coming out of the basement with Victoria, a virtual projection of a little girl appeared in the living room.

"Master, the trembling Tornado is begging for mercy through video call." The AI ​​intelligence codenamed Red Queen said to Li De.

This thing is purely Li De's bad taste. In fact, Li De originally planned to do it at the headquarters, but later thought about it and found it inappropriate.

It's not that it's not suitable to use AI intelligence, but the headquarters and even branches of the Hero Association were established by Dr. Foboy, and it's not appropriate to insert the AI ​​program written by Child Emperor.

For this reason, Li De didn't even use the hospital, but only made one in his villa to satisfy his bad taste.

"Take it!" Li De said immediately.

As Li De's order was issued, Tornado's figure also appeared in the virtual projection.

"Hey, Sid, I plan to hold a banquet at noon tomorrow, remember to come to my house to participate!" Tornado's voice came over immediately.

"So you are finally going to celebrate your growth?" Li De asked with a smile.

This is not Li De's mockery of Tornado, but a fact.

This matter started almost a year ago, when Tornado suddenly found Li De and asked him if he had a potion that could make him taller.

After all, Tornado has always been very concerned about her girlish figure, although she didn't say it.

After seeing Li De take out so many potions with different effects, she finally couldn't help it, and then found an opportunity to come and ask privately.

In the world of pirates, this matter is not really that difficult. Anyway, as long as you don't die, you will train to death.

With the special rules of the world of pirates and various nutritious foods, Tornado will definitely be able to transform from a young loli to a sexy queen in two or three years of training.

But this is the world of One Punch Man, and it is easy to create a monster Tornado with a skyrocketing height if you are not careful.

So after consideration, Li De asked Miyano Akemi to be responsible for treating Tornado.

What to treat?

Treat the symptoms of unhealthy development.

That's right, Li De asked Miyano Akemi to regard Tornado's slow physical development as unhealthy, and use a lot of healing power to help Tornado develop quickly.

However, this is not a treatment on Tornado's body that has stopped developing, but a treatment on Tornado's body that is only 7 years old.

That's right, Tornado took the anti-aging drug according to Li De's plan.

After all, even if Li De, there is currently no effective means to make the body that has stopped developing usher in a second development. Don't forget that Tornado is already 28 years old.

Unless she is pulled to the pirate world, Li De has basically no confidence.

Or use the system's fusion card, but Tornado is not a contractor, so the system means don't need to be considered.

So Li De simply uses a trick to develop again. Don't you think you haven't developed well? It doesn't matter. I'll give you a chance to develop again.    This time, we have scientific means to produce hormones that stimulate body growth, alchemical potions that increase physical strength, and body training. In addition, there is also the power of healing to protect you. If you still can't give you a NiceBody, then I can't do anything about it.

Therefore, in the past eleven months, Tornado has basically not gone out except for two missions to defeat monster disasters, and has focused on physical development and shaping.

In fact, if it were old men like Bang and Hiruzen, Li De would not dare to let them take the anti-aging drug at will.

After all, they are different from Tornado. Even if Tornado's body returns to the age of 7, his superpowers are not affected at all.

But old guys like Bang and Hiruzen are not like that. Once their bodies return to the age of 7, their strength will be at least 90% gone.

This is also the reason why Tornado is not afraid of taking the anti-aging drug.

In addition, Li De also wants to see how fast Tornado's body can grow under multiple means.

In fact, Tornado herself doesn't know one thing, that is, there are a lot of people paying attention to her.

After all, if they can grow up again in a short period of time, it is completely acceptable to some people.

Now eleven months have passed, and since Tornado can call Li De, it proves that her body has grown to a certain extent.

"What do you mean by finally growing up? I am celebrating that I have become the first in S-class. I won't say anything more. Remember to come early tomorrow!" After saying that, Tornado ended the video call.

"It seems that Tornado's growth rate is a bit beyond expectations. Although I didn't see her whole body, her face is almost close to Fubuki, so it seems that her height will not be bad." Victoria, who had not spoken just now, couldn't help but say at this moment.

"We will know when we go and see tomorrow." Li De also nodded and said.

In fact, without Victoria's reminder, Li De knew that with Tornado's personality, how could she hold a banquet to celebrate if she had not grown to a satisfactory level.

Since she asked him to attend the banquet, it proved that she was very satisfied with the growth effect of these eleven months.

With a height of 168cm and measurements of 91 (32F)/59/88, how could Tornado not be satisfied?

The most important thing here is that although Tornado's body has been ripened, it has not stopped developing.

In other words, if she works harder later, her figure will be even better.

"How is it?" Li De just came to Tornado's villa, and Tornado came to Li De and turned around and asked.

"Not bad, good figure! Anyone who sees you now will think of the four words sexy queen." Li De replied with a smile.

"Huh, of course!" Tornado replied proudly.

"These eleven months have been hard." Li De said immediately.

"That's true, but everything is worth it!" Tornado nodded.

"You can be happy secretly, others want to be worth it but have no chance." Li De couldn't help but reach out and tap Tornado's forehead and said.

And Li De's words are indeed correct, because even if someone wants to apply again, Li De will not agree.

Just because one person is holding Li De back is enough for Li De to refuse, not to mention that Miyano Akemi has used too much health power on Tornado in the past eleven months.

If it weren't for the fact that the heroes from all walks of life tended to capture monsters, which greatly enriched the underground cells of the internal hospital, the health resources occupied by Tornado would have caused the researchers in the internal hospital to protest.

"It seems that there are quite a few people paying attention to me." Tornado's tone suddenly became a little dangerous.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Who told you to be the first person to take the anti-aging drug? Those old guys who have long wanted to restore their youth would be paying attention to you all the time." Li De couldn't help but say.

"Those bastards, don't they know that girls' secrets can't be asked casually?" Tornado still said unhappily.

"Don't worry, the only people who can break through the firewall established by Child Emperor are probably Metal Storm and Drive Warrior, and they obviously don't want to be enemies with you, so your physical data has not been leaked. At most, one photo is taken every month to satisfy the curiosity of those people, and that's all." Li De replied lightly.

"That's better, but I still don't like it. Besides, those guys are full and have nothing to do. Aren't they waiting for your genetic modification project? Why are they so concerned about me?" Tornado continued, after all, this made her feel like a guinea pig.

She had experienced this feeling of a guinea pig in the [Tsukuyomi] organization, and that experience was something she never wanted to recall again in her life.

"Tornado, the genetic modification project in Shiho's hands is not that simple." Miyano Akemi took over the topic to explain.

"Is there any problem?" Tornado looked at Miyano Akemi in confusion and asked.

"In general, there is no problem in improving strength, but the problem of extending life is a bit big." Li De directly summarized the results.

"Sid, I remember you said there was no problem before?" Tornado looked at Li De again and asked.

"Yes, there is no problem." Li De nodded and said.

"Is there a problem or not? I am confused by you." Even if Tornado is mentally strong, he was a little confused by Li De's answer in the case of insufficient information.

"Tornado, the president means that if the human gene chain is used as a blueprint, then the problem of extending life will be difficult to solve. At least in the short term, the results that those people want should not be seen.

But if the non-human gene chain is used as a blueprint, it will be different. Let alone the problem of extending life, even the problem that only a few genes can be replaced before can be easily solved." Miyano Akemi continued to explain for Li De.

"Inhuman gene chain, if it is transformed, is it still human?" Longjuan asked.

"It depends on what standard is used to measure it. If blood is used as the standard, then the answer is no. If it is measured by human heart, then most of them are still negative." Li De said.

"Puchi, hahahaha, Sid is right, those high-ranking, fat-headed, and idle trash are really good at not being human." Claire on the side was immediately amused by Li De's cold joke.

After hearing Claire's laughter, Longjuan also understood what Li De meant.

"So Sid, what are you going to do?" Longjuan asked curiously.

"What do you mean?" Li De asked Longjuan back.

"It's about whether to tell them the answer, how do you plan to choose?" Longjuan asked after rolling his eyes at Li De.

"No need to tell, the researchers in the hospital were sent by them, and Shiho basically didn't hide anything from them, so those who should know know, and the rest is up to them to choose." Li De spread his hands and said.

"You are really careless!" Tornado said speechlessly after hearing this.

"No, this is the price you have to pay for support, and you also know how much those superiors value life span." Li De shook his head instead.

"That's true, but" Tornado paused here.
