The Master’s Mask Unveiled Again
Chapter 609 - Chapter 609 Chapter 608 The Right Way to Open Netherman

Chapter 609: Chapter 608: The Right Way to Open Netherman Chapter 609: Chapter 608: The Right Way to Open Netherman Because too many people had squeezed in all at once, everyone stuck together like dumplings.

Auntie Fang was also one to seek quick success and gains.

Seeing everyone crowded halfway in, she thought the room was too small.

So she simply decided to take the incriminating object outside for everyone to see.

She was in the farthest part of the room and sprinted a couple of steps, heading straight for the table.

The table had been modestly partitioned with a barrier.

On one side was a naturally grown Netherman, its leaves drooping, living on its last breath.

On the other side, the Netherman was placed inside a booth made with space materials.

Inside, some circuits and devices were entangled, complex yet revealing a touch of crudeness.

At a glance, it didn’t look very valuable.

Auntie Fang didn’t take it seriously at all, nor did she think it was a precious research result.

She reached out to grab the Netherman inside the device.

So many scientists in the laboratory, and here was Lu Mian playing the academic master, making it seem like a big deal.

With a click, she opened the device.

A torrent of intense oppressive sensation attacked her heart.

Lu Mian, at the doorway, noticed Auntie Fang’s action and felt a sinking feeling.

Before matters could get worse, she quickly spoke up with a stern and incisive tone.

“Don’t touch it!”

Auntie Fang turned her head and glared at Lu Mian, “It’s not your thing, I will touch it!”

Emboldened by having backing, Auntie Fang didn’t take Lu Mian’s warning seriously and, in a provocative manner, became even more reckless.

However, an accident occurred suddenly.

The moment Auntie Fang’s hand entered the device, she felt a bizarre and immense pressure piercing through her fingertips as if her bones had snapped, the pain unbearable!

And by the time she realized what had happened and withdrew her hands, she was horrified to find her fingers twisted and deformed within seconds!

The injury on her index finger was even more severe, with the bone exposed!

“AhaEUR””

Auntie Fang’s eyes were filled with shock, terrified as she stared at the eerie device.

It seemed like something that could consume people…

The speed of absorption was so fast that she couldn’t even find a trace of blood!

Assaulted by both pain and fear, Auntie Fang finally understood, screamed out loud, and fainted from fright.

“What, what happened?”

Inside the room, crowded and bustling just moments before, everyone quieted down, looking at the woman who had fainted on the floor, exchanging puzzled looks.

Only then did everyone feel the unusual ambiance of the room.

It was, it was rather chilly.

Not until they looked up at the tabletop and took a closer look at the greenery within the device did they forget about the injured Auntie Fang.

They all stood frozen in place, shocked.

That pot of Netherman was strikingly different!

Xin Yuelu pushed through the crowd and, looking at Auntie Fang’s pale face on the ground, turned to Lu Mian and accused her anxiously, “Miss Lu, what’s the matter?”

Lu Mian responded unruffled: “I warned her.”

“You!”

Pu Zongyang, protecting Xiao Qimo and Lu Mian, squeezed his way through the crowd.

Xin Yuelu stomped her foot, “Dad, Auntie Fang was injured because of Lu Mian.

You have to look at her!”

However, inside the room, only Xin Yuelu was still making an issue out of Auntie Fang.

The others had long been attracted by the Netherman.

Someone carefully pointed out, “Mr.

Pu, Group Leader Yuelu, look…”

The person pointed at the Netherman on the table, their voice trembling.

Clearly, the Netherman was more shocking than the eerily injured Auntie Fang.

Xin Yuelu, impatient and with lingering fear, looked up and something seemed to explode in her mind.

She shoved everyone aside and rushed to the front.

With Aunt Fang’s lesson in mind, she dared not touch it and could only watch the green plant inside the device in shock from a distance.

This Netherman was nothing like what she had imagined she would find…

“Why has this one grown so well?!”

“I’ve never seen a Netherman with leaves so full and green, or stems so robust!

This one is twice the size of those in our lab!”

“What’s going on here, Miss Lu?

Could it be that you’ve also been conducting some research in secret?”

“Research?” Pu Zongyang pushed his way to the front, mocking, “Is this what happens when you feed Netherman an expansion agent?

If she could conduct research, what would we need all these masters and doctors for?”

All eyes were on Lu Mian, filled with inquiry, skepticism, and a desire for answers.

Lu Mian pressed her lips together coldly, “Uncle Xin, please arrange for someone to take this lady out for treatment first.”

“This…okay.”

Uncle Xin had a few people quickly take Aunt Fang away from the ground.

As people made way, seeing Aunt Fang’s injuries got them wondering.

What kind of research was Miss Lu conducting?

It seemed rather sinister…

“Miss Lu, this Netherman…”

The more Uncle Xin looked, the more he felt something was off.

Ignoring the strange looks from everyone, Lu Mian walked to the table, didn’t take any protective measures, reached her hands into the special device, and moved the Netherman out onto the table for all to see.

After a moment of silence, everyone was shocked.

Lu Mian’s handling of the plant was no different from Aunt Fang’s.

Why wasn’t she hurt?

Lu Mian had no intention of responding to that question; instead, she glanced in the direction of Xiao Qimo.

Their gazes crossed in the air, each understanding the other, each knowing well.

“This device can activate the RE Factor in the Netherman, aiding its growth,” Lu Mian spoke calmly.

At the mention of the RE Factor, someone couldn’t hold back.

Pan Jiancheng, the head of the medical team who had been hiding behind the crowd to avoid getting blood on him, pushed through to the front.

Upon seeing the exceptionally robust Netherman, he wore the same expression as everyone else.

First, his mouth fell open, then he went blank for a moment, and finally, he stared at Lu Mian in shock.

“This…this…” Pan Jiancheng stuttered.

Uncle Xin was almost frantic, “Old Pan, what are you trying to say?”

“This…

It turns out the RE Factor was extracted from this Netherman!”

“Hiss…”

As soon as these words were said, it was like a thunderclap on a clear day.

Everyone’s eyes nearly popped out of their heads.

They didn’t know the truth and, seeing such a well-grown Netherman, they first guessed whether the RE Factor could be extracted from it.

Just like Pu Zongyang said, a plant that has been enlarged with an expansion agent is futile no matter how large it is.

“Group Leader Pan, please clarify,” Xin Yuelu was somewhat confused.

Pan Jiancheng explained in detail, “The first drop of RE Factor successfully extracted in the lab came from a leaf of this plant right here.

Our entire lab couldn’t find a second pot with leaves as succulent and vibrant as this sample!”

Additionally, considering the previous sample was personally handed to him by Mr.

Xiao and he was not allowed to ask about it, he had guessed the general idea.

Everyone suddenly came to a realization.

“Group Leader Pan, are you sayingaEUR”in other words, the successful person is Miss Lu Mian, not Group Leader Yuelu?!”

Pan Jiancheng solemnly nodded his head.

Xiao Qimo playfully poked Lu Mian’s hand with pride and gave her an approving look.

Lu Mian grasped his hand in return.

Xin Yuelu’s expression changed dramatically!
