The Gentleman at the End -
Chapter 366 - Chapter 366 Chapter 365 Prosthetic Development Department
Chapter 366: Chapter 365 Prosthetic Development Department Chapter 366: Chapter 365 Prosthetic Development Department Yi Chen, making use of his professional characteristics, quickly completed all his reading and absorption,
Through the study, understanding, and eventual integration of the essence of the Death Plague, he gained a new understanding of this death that stemmed from the Old World.
He opened the suitcase, immediately grasped the spine in his hand, and keenly felt the Dead Gangrene Mist Bacteria breeding between the vertebrae, experiencing those barb-like structures, some of which even had slight blades on the cilia.
As Yi Chen, this new master, transmitted his thoughts,
The bacterial colonies inside the spine actually began to whip their cilia, rearranging themselves and even reshaping the structure of the spine, yet ultimately failed to change its shape.
“Indeed, as my control over the Death Plague improves, I should be able to change their arrangement by manipulating each cilium of the Dead Gangrene Mist Bacteria, thereby altering the Dead Spine Lake into the ‘axe-shaped form’ I desire,”
To develop a third form beyond the Knight Battle Axe and Berserker’s Dual Axes, which suits me best.
It would be best paired with the firearms crafted for me by the Archbishop, to achieve the most perfect combat stance.
Moreover,
With the use of “Execution,” the more enemies Dead Spine Lake slays, the denser the accumulated sin, the higher the quality of death will grow, and the bacteria will change further.
I estimate that apart from the changes in the number and structure of cilia, the Dead Gangrene Mist Bacteria should undergo a qualitative transformation along with the evolution of the pathogenic host, even changing the original structure of the cell and converging on the most ancient form of death.
If I could obtain the pathogen of an official member of the Death Plague Knights or even the fluid from the First Dead Man, perhaps I would see the true face of the Death Plague.
Currently, the research Reagan and I are conducting is just open-source level and basic.
That’s it for this draft revision; I’ll leave it all to Reagan… The screening starts in two days. There’s no way I can keep working under such high pressure; I’ll find Jin to replenish my physical strength,”
Yi Chen sealed the draft in the laboratory’s safe, picked up his suitcase, and prepared to leave the Power Station.
Little did he know that Jin, who had arrived at the Power Station with him two days ago, was still here, seemingly having a great time,
Following an enthusiastic staff member through an all-metal corridor filled with surveillance equipment, he reached the “Prosthetic Development Department” of the Research Institute.
This area, headed by Kimberly Cabrella, the deputy director of the Power Station Research Institute and the pioneer in prosthetic modification, is where 90% of the prosthetic equipment seen in Zion City is developed and produced.
Thanks to the maturity of prosthetic technology in recent years, many gentlemen, identified by major hospitals as unable to contribute to the organization due to loss of mobility, have once again embarked on journeys of healing.
Right upon arriving, Yi Chen was captivated by the anatomical diagrams on the walls and also faintly heard strong thuds emanating from deep within.
S-Level Prosthetic Testing Room
Constructed using the hardest metal materials available combined with the technology of the institute, this area is commonly used for the destructive and combative testing of high-level prosthetics.
The deputy director Kimberly, dressed in a full metallic suit and whose face somewhat resembled the character from the movie “Terminator,” was anxiously pacing back and forth outside the observation area of the testing room.
Upon Yi Chen’s arrival, Deputy Director Kimberly, as if seeing a savior, hurriedly waved him over.
“William Behrens, it’s really good to see you at this time! I heard you and Reagan were conducting research on the Death Plague in the BSL-4 lab and couldn’t get in touch with you.
You and Miss Jin are teammates, right? Could you please take her away from here as soon as possible? Because of her arrival, our work here has been halted for two days, and our research progress has been severely delayed.”
“Oh?”
Yi Chen turned his gaze towards the interior of the testing room,
where he saw that the S-level testing room was not only filled with various explosion craters but also covered in various bright red swollen tumors, some of which were even oozing pus on the surface, while others had grown bizarre blood-flesh tentacles from within.
All kinds of prosthetics were torn apart, shredded, and thrown inside the testing room, some even amalgamated by tumors into some form of bizarre blood-flesh machinery.
Jin was having a great time, currently pressing her mask against the single pane of glass, stretching out a slender, tender tongue from beneath the mask and gently licking the glass, hoping the institute could quickly arrange her next opponent.
The aura of Red Lotus released among the tongue coating contained a hint of madness, clearly indicating that Jin had certain mental issues.
Witnessing this scene, Yi Chen touched his chin and softly said, “Speaking of which, Deputy Director Kimberly, wouldn’t it be easier if you personally went in and defeated Jin?
However, Kimberly quickly waved his hand, “Not to mention the issue of status, if I personally stepped in to suppress such a youth. The Executioners in Cesimani might hear of it and possibly even bring trouble, perhaps that bald Prophet would come knocking on my door personally.”
“Okay, I’ll take her away now.”
Just as Yi Chen was about to enter the testing room with his briefcase, Kimberly extended his hand to stop him, “You better perform the Restriction Removal in advance. The current state of Miss Jin is very excited, and the first three people who stepped through the door were attacked fatally the instant they entered.”
“It’s okay, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.”
Yi Chen merely adjusted his tie slightly and then looked toward the staff member responsible for opening the door, giving a nod of affirmation, after which the staffer immediately turned the valve.
Hiss! Hydraulic balance.
A thick, meaty smell drifted out,
As soon as Yi Chen stepped inside the testing room,
Jin, who had been licking the one-sided glass, had now twisted her head 90deg to look over, experiencing a violent internal explosion between her calves, and without much starting motion, she dashed towards the door, blade rising and falling.
Just as she was about to strike,
Buzz!
A dash of starlight flickered across Yi Chen’s body, and his body made a sideway shift instantaneously without any intermediary process!
Swish!
Jin’s hand blade almost clipped Yi Chen’s body, nearly slicing off a button on his suit.
Just as she was about to make her next slaughtering move,
Yi Chen already brought his mouth close to her ear, his tongue curled into a circle, emitting a special low-frequency murmur.
“Jin, let’s go home.”
The murmur, infused with the traits of madness brain, flowed directly into Jin’s brain, awakening the suppressed ego consciousness beneath her mask. The murky pupils under the mask also cleared up.
In an instant, tumors around the room blossomed like flowers, forming clusters of flesh-like Red Lotuses that slowly morphed back into pollen essence and drifted back into Jin’s body.
She then turned around and pinned Yi Chen against the door.
“You finally came to pick me up… How is it playing with Reagan?”
“Not bad, I’ve learned about the basic structure of the Death Plague. I hope Jin can accompany me to rest for the next couple of days, and if possible, help me make some physical adjustments.”
“Leave it to me~”
Jin slapped Yi Chen on the back of his neck, pop! A cystic ovum exploded at the point of slap, the penetrating fluid immediately flowed into the cervical spine, providing Yi Chen with the most direct nutritional supplementation,
Seeing the two leave on good terms,
Deputy Director Kimberly also breathed a sigh of relief and hastened to call people to repair the scene.
“Young people these days really are excessive…”
He actually wasn’t concerned about the issues with Cesimani side. He merely assessed based on Jin’s manic behavior, and his chances of winning could not reach 100%, and might even drop to 80% at worst.
As the deputy director, having issues here and winning messily would severely affect the further development of the prosthetic development department.
