Chapter 413: Chapter 324 The Scapegoat_1
After her bath, Ahn Longling dried her hair and went straight to Ahn Ke’s guest room. The bed there was quite large, and upon seeing it, she had no intention of going to any other guest room.
Zheng Yichen had already rested enough. He went to the adjacent laboratory, where Katrina was napping on a small bed, and Eileena was still bustling about energetically.
"This is a laboratory, you’re living here too?"
Seeing the living supplies in the laboratory, Zheng Yichen was speechless. He had seen the laboratory on Ahn Ke’s side as well, and it was completely different. It was very streamlined, with no daily necessities to be seen aside from the experimental equipment. Zheng Yichen suspected that even for drinking water, she would use a beaker.
"Our demands for the laboratory are not high. Most of the items here are for assisting with magic, sterilization for instance..." Eileena glanced at Katrina, who was sleeping above the small window: "Her Blessing Magic has this kind of effect."
"? It can do that too?"
"Of course. Blessing Magic contains a part that cleanses filth, and this same magical power can be applied to the environment to perform a corresponding function."
That function turned out to be sterilization. To put it simply, it wasn’t just sterilization, but rather a small area environment cleaning. With such cleansing, bacteria and similar organisms would be washed away, including those on the human body, but those inside the human body were not included in this scope.
"Magic is amazing. You should rest too."
Zheng Yichen glanced at the Skeleton head. That thing, even when placed in a container, could not hide an ominous feeling. In a container next to the Skeleton head, there were some animal heads with circuits connected to them, but those circuits were not the kind one would recognize as electric wires.
"I can do that." Eileena looked at those animal heads: "I use those animal brains to collect information, which some devices in the laboratory will read."
The Ahn family possessed technology to extract information from the brains of living creatures, and this laboratory was also equipped with such devices. However, these were not the best. The best involved the Ahn family’s technological secrets. At most, what could be done here was to extract surface-level memories, basically the immediate thoughts of the individuals.
Utilizing this technology and the necromantic skill of a witch, Eileena connected the information stored within the Skeleton head to the animal brains. She didn’t need the brains of those animals to understand the information; as long as it flowed through the surface of the animal brains and was then detected and recorded by the equipment, that was sufficient.
As for how to maintain the viability of these animal brains... it was quite simple. The special power within the Skeleton head was enough to keep these brains functioning normally even after they were separated from their original owners.
"After this task is done, these animal brains will undergo additional mutations. They’ll need to be cleaned up later, so I’ll rely on you to keep an eye on things here." After explaining the setup to Zheng Yichen, Eileena pulled out a small folding bed from another place and laid down next to Katrina to rest.
The temperature inside the laboratory was quite comfortable, not cold enough to give them a cold from sleeping like this.
"I can’t duplicate myself..." Zheng Yichen thought to himself and glanced at the operating equipment before heading to the garage to retrieve a cloak hung over a motorcycle.
When he returned to the laboratory, he noticed a new projection was present. There was projection equipment here too.
"Boss, I can keep an eye on things here for you," said the artificial intelligence Lilith.
When Zheng Yichen went to get the cat spirit cloak, Lilith had already calculated that Zheng Yichen would need some extra hands. When at home, she was always connected to the network and was linked to the laboratory as well.
"I almost forgot about you. I’ll leave this place to you then; notify me directly of any changes." Zheng Yichen placed the cat spirit cloak on a nearby coat rack. The cat spirit inside had overeaten in a world of cancerous mutation and had not played any significant role in the previous world.
For the cat spirit inside to come out, Zheng Yichen didn’t need to provide any extra Life Force; it could come out on its own. Keeping it here was also an extra precaution.
Outside the laboratory, Zheng Yichen felt as if he had become a doorkeeper. Casually activating his thermal vision, he could see nearby heat sources, including but not limited to small animals whose heat signatures were of a certain intensity. These included insects active underground.
With this special vision, Zheng Yichen felt he was becoming more and more capable. As for the heat sources belonging to humans, they were too far away for him to pay much attention, as long as they did not approach his dwelling. However, he felt that he needed to prepare some additional things for the upcoming period.
He wondered how well things were going with the items Chiang Wei was preparing for him and what was happening on Qi Xiangyun’s side. Zheng Yichen had initially planned to pay a visit there and, if possible, take care of some Supreme Demons in that world...
Supreme Demons were excellent... prey, in his eyes. If they were enemies, they were prey; if they were allies, Zheng Yichen had his own principles and certainly would not target them. After various experiences, Zheng Yichen was all too aware of the importance of one’s Performance Coefficient. With a high coefficient, he would appear gifted in any environment, possessing Innate Divine Strength, naturally ultra-fast reflexes, and a naturally strong constitution, among other talents.
