In the early morning, when Luo Chao woke up, he found himself in an unfamiliar room, and his nanobiological armor had already been removed.
Lying on the bed, he saw Xu Qianqian sitting by the bedside, asleep on his body.
He only remembered that the last scene he saw before losing consciousness was Xu Qianqian looking at him anxiously, shouting his name.
"Looks like she brought me home in a panic. I just don't know where my nanobiological armor went. Could it have been taken by the police in the United States? If such high-tech stuff falls into their hands, it would be a disaster! And most importantly, that armor cost two hundred million Huaxia Coins!" Luo Chao thought in a panic.
"Hehehehe, don't worry, even though you passed out, I've been conscious the whole time. Your armor was kept safe by this girl," said the leisurely voice of the Source of Fear.
"Damn, you didn't even warn me that I would pass out when you absorbed power!" Luo Chao said angrily.
"Hehehehe, how was I supposed to know you'd faint just from absorbing power from someone not even at the Star-Destroying Level! Tsk tsk tsk!" The Source of Fear showed no sympathy.
Luo Chao had nothing more to say. He looked down and noticed that the tight suit he originally wore inside the nanobiological armor was missing, replaced by a sky-blue pajama.
"Could it be?" Luo Chao glanced at the sleeping Xu Qianqian.
"Did she change my clothes while I was unconscious? Damn, was I completely exposed!?" Thinking of this, Luo Chao subconsciously hugged his arms.
Xu Qianqian was woken up by Luo Chao's movements. She rubbed her eyes and, seeing Luo Chao looking lost, joyfully came over and hugged his neck. "You're finally awake! I thought you were seriously ill! But I couldn't take you to the hospital! I was so worried!"
"I was just a bit too exhausted," Luo Chao explained.
"You were so exhausted that you passed out? I had a hard time getting you into a cab to bring you home! You're so heavy, I dragged you for nearly half an hour! My arms are still sore!" Xu Qianqian complained.
"Haha, soreness is good, it means muscles are growing!" Luo Chao said, scratching his head.
"Growing muscles? Grow your head! Growing muscles!" Xu Qianqian finally couldn't help but raise her hand to hit Luo Chao.
Luo Chao easily caught Xu Qianqian's swinging hand, holding her wrist lightly, then he kissed her.
A kiss is the best weapon a man has against an angry woman, and it's absolutely true.
Xu Qianqian was taken aback by the kiss from Luo Chao.
Then her originally slightly angry expression slowly turned into a shy one.
"I declare that Miss Xu Qianqian is now mine," Luo Chao said mischievously.
"Hmph!" Xu Qianqian pretended not to hear, then turned and left the room.
A while later, she poked her head back in and asked, "Dear, what do you want for breakfast? I'll make it for you."
"Hehe, I'll have some ham and eggs!" Luo Chao deliberately joked.
"Ham… ham your sister! Ham and eggs!" Xu Qianqian huffed, then disappeared out the door.
Twenty minutes later, Luo Chao leisurely ate ham and eggs at the dining table and asked, "Did you record the video from yesterday?"
"I did. I'll make it into a video news piece and take it to the newspaper editor. With solid footage this time, I doubt he'll refuse to publish it!" Xu Qianqian replied.
"That's good. I still have some things to take care of, so I won't disturb your work." Luo Chao was thinking about testing how much stronger he had become, having endured such inhuman pain last night, there must be some reward!
Also, regarding the intelligence on superhumans from around the world provided by Uri Geller, it's time to find them and bring them back to Huaxia to build my own force.
Xu Qianqian knew her boyfriend wasn't an ordinary person, so the things he needed to do were definitely not ordinary either.
Even though they hadn't known each other long and she didn't want to part with him, she knew Luo Chao wasn't someone who belonged in a cage.
So, there was neither pleading nor whining.
"Go ahead! I'll handle the Night Blade thing!" Xu Qianqian responded.
But Luo Chao said, "Qianqian, once I'm done with these things, how about I bring you back to Huaxia?"
"But I've signed a contract with the newspaper. If I don't work there or leave the country without their permission, I'll be fined a million US dollars!" Xu Qianqian explained.
"Haven't I also signed a contract with you? How can I protect you if you don't come with me?" Luo Chao countered.
"Even though I do want to go to Huaxia with you, but… the fine, that's a million US dollars! My current annual income is just eighty thousand dollars, at least thirteen years to pay it off!" Xu Qianqian hesitated.
"Don't worry! I, Luo Chao, have some worth in Huaxia. A mere million US dollars isn't a big deal! More importantly, I have even bigger plans for the future, and I'll need your help to accomplish them," Luo Chao said seriously.
"Alright, once you finish your business, I'll go to Huaxia with you," Xu Qianqian finally agreed seeing Luo Chao so earnest.
Back in his hotel, Luo Chao sat cross-legged on the bed and began his internal vision.
He saw that the two golden spheres at the core of his mind were larger than before, especially the one representing enhancement, which was significantly more noticeable.
His muscle fibers were thicker compared to before!
By extending his Spiritual Force Field, Luo Chao discovered that the radius of his spiritual exploration had expanded to five thousand meters.
"I just don't know how much my body's strength has specifically increased!" Luo Chao remembered the words from the two elders at the Huaxia test base. Back then, the Water Cube they used to test his strength could no longer withstand his power.
"Hehehehe, if you really want to know, I can tell you," the Source of Fear spoke.
"What? You can know how much my strength has increased?" Luo Chao quickly asked.
"Nonsense, with me giving you power, how could I not know? I know your body's every inch better than you!" the Source of Fear replied.
Luo Chao, full of doubt, asked, "Why does that sound so strange? So, how strong have I become?"
