Chapter 240 Quetla's Stratagem

"No problem," Rumssi nodded cheerfully, picking up the small wooden hammer and imbuing it with destructive power.

"Crack!"

Vegeta pressed the lid onto the small bottle.

Twist, open!

The interior of the small bottle also lit up.

"Now!" Quittra shouted loudly.

"Snap!"

Vimeda's hand immediately released a dazzling light.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Quittra transformed into a streak of light and flew rapidly towards the opening.

However, as soon as Quittra poked his head out, something like a mountain was pressed down on him.

This time, Vegeta didn't even look at what was inside the lid.

He could see the video later anyway.

What was the point of looking inside now?

Vegeta directly put on the new lid.

As Vegeta was closing the lid, he suddenly felt a tremendous force pushing upwards against him.

Vegeta lightly tapped the lid.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, Quittra, struck by the lid, tumbled directly to the bottom of the bottle and face-planted.

Quittra felt completely unwell.

Immediately after, due to this violent collision, the spraying device on the bottle cap was triggered.

"Pfft..."

The bottle cap directly sprayed pepper spray infused with destructive energy.

"Ahhh... Ahhhh!"

Fierce screams emanated from inside the bottle.

Quittra and Vimeda rolled around inside, in unbearable pain.

"Snap!"

The next moment, a holographic projection was cast from the bottle, playing back the events inside.

"Your... Your Queen's projection technology is simply amazing!" Heilas exclaimed in surprise, "It can actually play this back?"

"It's something about quantum mechanics, I don't understand it either," Vegeta said with a smile.

"Hahaha, these two poor fellows, who would have thought they'd end up like this!" Rumssi laughed heartily, shaking his elephant trunk with delight.

"Excellent, excellent, the visuals are very vivid," Vegeta also smiled with great amusement, "I love torturing little mice."

The three of them thoroughly enjoyed watching the tormented expressions of Vimeda and Quittra, finding it incredibly satisfying.

It had been a long time since they had seen such a scene.

It was truly entertaining.

About 10 minutes passed.

The two finally calmed down, their teeth gritted in hatred.

The projected video also ended.

"Is that all? Can't we see inside now?" Rumssi asked.

"Did it run out of power?" Vegeta was slightly taken aback.

"Go ask your Queen, and I also want to know what those two were doing inside," Rumssi suggested.

This time, Vegeta didn't use Instant Transmission. He directly contacted Bulma through the scepter in his hand.

"What? You want a surveillance system that constantly plays videos?" Bulma understood what he meant this time.

"Yes, you can put it that way, being able to watch whenever we want," Vegeta nodded.

"Let me think... I can use a derivative of the previous S7699 quantum projection technology," Bulma mused, "Wait a moment... I'll get you an upgrade package, and you can just upgrade it later."

"Upgrade directly?" Vegeta was bewildered.

Rumssi and Heilas were also completely clueless.

After all, this was high-tech stuff, and the God of Destruction didn't have much research in this area.

"Come and get it in about 5 minutes," Bulma said.

Vegeta nodded in agreement.

After ending the call, Vegeta seemed to suddenly realize something. He turned to look at Rumssi and Heilas.

"What is it?" Rumssi asked.

"Don't you think it was a bit strange when I opened the lid just now?" Vegeta pondered.

"Now that you mention it, I think I noticed something too..." Rumssi nodded, "After opening the lid, the brightness inside the bottle seemed extremely high."

"What about you, sister, did you see it?" Vegeta asked Heilas again.

"I also noticed it. Rumssi is right. I felt like they were releasing an extremely bright energy. If you had seen it with your eyes, it might have caused temporary blindness," Heilas offered her analysis.

"Fortunately, we didn't look directly into the opening of the bottle earlier," Rumssi said with a smile, "Otherwise, we would have been caught."

"I understand now. They used a technique similar to Solar Flare, trying to blind my eyes and escape that way," Vegeta's smile grew, "But that escape method is indeed good. If it were just me, I might have accidentally let them escape."

"Be careful in the future, lest they have any insidious schemes," Rumssi cautioned, "If we really let them out, sealing them up again won't be so simple."

"Understood," Vegeta nodded, "But there won't be a 'future.' Once Bulma upgrades that device, we'll know what they're thinking."

Five minutes passed quickly.

Vegeta went back to get the upgrade package.

The upgrade package was simple, a small object about the size of a Go stone.

By crushing this object and scattering the fragments on the lid, the camera inside the lid could be upgraded.

The upgraded camera could be used as a surveillance device.

The upgrade process was straightforward and completed in less than a minute.

According to Bulma's instructions, by gently tapping the lid twice with the knuckle of your index finger, the projection from inside could be played.

Furthermore, it used thermal imaging technology.

This meant that no matter how dark it was inside, the two people within could be seen.

Tapping the lid twice again would turn off the projection.

"Tap, tap!"

Vegeta gently tapped the lid twice with his knuckles.

"Swish!"

Instantly, the situation inside the small bottle was projected and played back.

"It's on, it's on, the picture is indeed showing!" Heilas exclaimed excitedly.

"I know why you like your Queen so much. This woman is a genius," Rumssi said, patting Vegeta on the shoulder.

In the projection.

Vimeda and Quittra were in great pain and despair.

After writhing on the ground in pain for a few more moments, the two sat up and stared at each other.

What a pity.

It was such a shame.

This time, Vegeta had not looked into the opening of the bottle.

He had replaced the lid as soon as he opened it.

"Damn it, we were so close to succeeding!" Vimeda gritted his teeth.

"He didn't look into the bottle opening!" Quittra said, grinding his teeth in hatred.

"What should we do? I wonder if he noticed?" Vimeda asked.

"He probably didn't notice," Quittra recalled carefully and replied, "He directly replaced the lid, so he might not have noticed the bright light emanating from inside the bottle."
