Chapter 1721: Chapter 1721: Breakthrough Point

Upon hearing what Little Golden Dragon said, Ji You’s previously heavy mood vanished instantly. She even laughed through her tears, confused why Little Golden Dragon could use such a fierce tone to say something so soft.

She could even hear a hint of whining in it.

Little Golden Dragon saw Ji You laughing, stiffened all over, and was very annoyed: "What are you laughing at?"

Seeing Ji You laugh even more, Little Golden Dragon got angrier: "Damn woman, what exactly are you laughing at? What’s so funny?"

It’s not funny at all, not one bit.

Ji You covered her grinning mouth and laughed: "Alright, alright... I won’t laugh at you anymore."

Little Golden Dragon grunted heavily: "Humph~"

Ji You regained her serious demeanor and said: "I do need to extract a piece of your skin tissue for the experiment, to compare it with this grid wall."

Little Golden Dragon was unfazed and even a bit proud: "You can cut it! Even if you cut from my head, Lord Heavenly Dog isn’t afraid of pain."

Who are you kidding?

Clearly scared to death.

Ji You rolled her eyes, saying: "But before that, I must seriously ask you a question—who is the person who’s peeled your skin many times?"

Little Golden Dragon didn’t react instantly, mainly because he didn’t expect Ji You to bring this up again. He remained silent for a while.

Ji You saw his expression and spoke more seriously: "Is it the repairman?"

Little Golden Dragon jumped up after hearing it, saying: "How is it possible! The repairman wouldn’t peel my skin! He has never done that!"

Ji You felt slightly relieved, asking: "Then who was it? Hurry up and tell me, don’t stammer as if there’s some huge secret you can’t reveal. If he’s not dead, I’ll give him hell for you. If he’s dead, let’s move on and look forward. If he’s strong and powerful, we’ll keep it in mind and take him down when we’re stronger! Hurry and tell me!"

Little Golden Dragon’s face turned red instantly: "I... I don’t remember."

Ji You’s finger shook: "What?"

Little Golden Dragon, red-faced and a bit embarrassed, said: "I... my body is partially defective, and I’ve lost some memory. You know that, right? How am I supposed to know who peeled my skin?"

As he spoke, he himself got angry instead.

Ji You took a deep breath and said: "Then how do you know you’ve been skinned many times?"

Little Golden Dragon muttered, annoyed: "My nerves have a self-starting sensation. Suddenly coming across scenes like just now feels like I’ve gone through many, many times, and I know starting from the tail doesn’t hurt as much."

Many, many...

He used a string of "many" to describe it; obviously, the actual situation was more, not less.

Ji You’s heart sank, and she furrowed her brows, saying: "Not remembering, just a conditioned response from the body? Then it’s hard to pinpoint the specific target."

Little Golden Dragon tugged at Ji You’s hair and even stomped on her head with force, grunting: "Idiot, I’ve already said we can’t find that person anymore; maybe he’s dead, maybe he’s alive, maybe he’s not human, maybe he’s not in the eight major star systems of human survival... Anyway, I don’t remember, don’t mind him, we’re supposed to move forward, right?"

"Quickly see if the skin on my body is the same as this thing." Little Golden Dragon was not scared at all now, extending his neck and moving his head closer to Ji You: "You can take my skin from anywhere—head, tail, neck... It’s just a bit painful, that’s all, not like I’m going to die."

This skin has considerable self-repair capability, so even if 99% is peeled off, it can self-repair given enough time, as long as 1% remains.

At this moment, He Bi and others had entered the security cabin and brought back a piece of grid wall, which was immediately sent to Ji You’s lab.

Ji You received it and quickly started the comparison.

After piercing through the second grid room, the previously rattled earth-shattering space began to calm down as Ji You took out the experiment equipment again.

Then.

She first took a piece of skin tissue from Little Golden Dragon and sent it for testing, then tested the two grid walls separately.

Although human equipment can’t detect their specific components, a comparison can still be made.

Thus, the results came out quickly.

The grid walls brought over by Senior He Bi twice were from the same species. And, the layer of skin on Little Golden Dragon was over 80% similar to the grid wall!

Upon seeing this result, Ji You’s eyes widened: "So, these grids outside actually do have a connection with your skin." Although not 100% similarity, it’s already a very good lead.

Little Golden Dragon was surprised too: "What? Only 80%? I clearly feel this thing is similar to my skin, at least 99%. Why is it only that much?"

Ji You asked: "Little Golden Dragon, have you ever visited this plane with the repairman before?"

Little Golden Dragon heard this and said with a stern face: "Woman, I solemnly warn you not to call me Little Golden Dragon, that name is so tasteless, not one bit imposing or majestic. I am Heavenly Dog, the strongest mecha in the universe—Lord Heavenly Dog!"

Ji You glanced at him: "Stop babbling."

Little Golden Dragon immediately said: "I don’t know, I don’t remember. I’ve said my genetic chip is defective, and I don’t remember a lot of things, including this."

Ji You raised her hand, rubbed her forehead, and cursed: "Useless in everything, the best at eating, what’s the use of you!"

Little Golden Dragon pouted: "Woman, mind your actions, don’t provoke me... I... cough cough... Even though I don’t remember if I’ve been here before, by sensing that sound wave, even if I haven’t been here, I’ve seen this creature somewhere."

Ji You nodded, saying: "Then try to think about it, if you can remember, great, if not, it’s okay."

Then, Ji You lowered her head, placing the other two grid walls aside, and began dissecting Little Golden Dragon’s skin tissue.

Little Golden Dragon had never seen his skin tissue being dissected, and feeling curious, he leaned over and asked: "Woman, what do you plan to do?"

Ji You, while dissecting, explained: "I decided to not care about that 20% of unknown substance for now, and first understand this 80% material. I think once we understand the 80%, it might serve as a breakthrough to completely unlock this grid cage."

Moreover, this time she is very confident.
