87 Genetic Army (1/2)

”Speak clearly! What do you mean?” Feng Lin halted as he asked in a heavy voice.

It was as though the long-robed man had expected that Feng Lin would halt. He had a calm smile on his face and a feeling that the situation was under his control.

”The Giant Pharmaceutical Company is backed by the Solar System Coalition Government and is one of the genetic potion manufacturers that enjoys a monopoly in the industry. Its only goal is profit, and it brings nothing but harm to us Martians. Our Mars Revolutionary Army pursues the will of fairness and peace. Thus, we are mortal enemies with the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, and our understanding of it far surpasses yours. Do you really think it's just a normal genetic potion manufacturing company? You are far too naive!” The expression of the long-robed man turned heavy, filled with hostility as he continued, ”The solar system is a Chaotic Star Region, and the laws only exist in name only. The Giant Pharmaceutical Company is a huge oligarchy enterprise. Do you really think they would honestly run a business? If they didn't hide their strength, they would have already become a gold mine in the eyes of many and would be partitioned up by greedy wolves as they collapsed.”

Feng Lin's heart stirred, and he thought of the bloody, terrifying human experimentation he had witnessed in the R&D department. Those weak and scholarly looking researchers all had cold looks in their eyes, treating the lives of those subjects as non-existent. An inexplicable uneasiness arose in his heart.

However, there was no change to his facial expression. He calmly continued, ”So what? What does this have to do with me?”

Even if there was a huge conspiracy behind the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, as long as it didn't involve him, Feng Lin didn't want to be involved at all.

He knew how powerful he was now, and he wouldn't overstep his bounds!

Feng Lin wouldn't lose his sanity just because he became an interstellar cultivator.

He didn't plan to search in-depth for the answer behind the human experimentations.

Maybe as a human, Feng Lin would feel sympathy and rage when he saw those humans as little white mice in the laboratory. But because of his intellect and rationality, he didn't intend to be a busybody and be overly inquisitive.

This was also the reason why after his initial rage, he no longer cared about the reason behind the human experimentations.

Without sufficient strength to protect himself, if he still tried to be a busybody, wouldn't that be courting death?

Upon facing Feng Lin's reply, the long-robed man was startled. He didn't expect Feng Lin's personality would be so cold and unfeeling. This made him feel extremely uncomfortable as he had a belly full of words but was unable to speak them.

However, he wasn't willing to give up so easily.

It seemed like if he didn't reveal news of great impact, Feng Lin's heart wouldn't be moved!

The long-robed man gritted his teeth. His tone turned mysterious. ”I know that you are recruited by the R&D department of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company. But do you know that the R&D dept is tackling a new key research topic recently? The content of the topic is how to manufacture genetic potions that can be used by ordinary people!”

Feng Lin's expression changed. This man was extremely well-informed; his news was extremely accurate. It seemed like the spy must have a pretty high position in the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, or it would be impossible for the spy to learn of such a secret.

Upon noting the change in Feng Lin's expression, the long-robed man decided to reveal an even more shocking news, adding more fuel to the fire.

”From my source, the purpose of this research topic isn't so simple as to benefit the masses. Do you really think that the Giant Pharmaceutical Company is running a charity? They only have a single purpose…” As he spoke until here, he intentionally pretended to be mysterious and lengthened his tone.

”What is their purpose?” Feng Lin spoke in an unconcerned manner as he continued to press for answers.

”To create an army!” the long-robed man replied in a heavy tone.

”An army?” Feng Lin's expression changed. He thought about the research topic and tried to link it with what he heard. Could an army be artificially created by potions?

”That's right. They want an army made up of soldiers that are all interstellar cultivators!” The long-robed man spoke with a tone that could sever iron, his expression extremely grim.

”How can this be possible?” Feng Lin instinctively rebutted. He immediately felt that this was impossible.

He knew very well how difficult it was to become an interstellar cultivator.

Every step of gene evolution was extremely tough and required strenuous effort. Feng Lin was knowledgeable in myths and legends and had the genetic equation ability to aid him. But even so, his path wasn't a smooth one, and he even had to flee from his clan. Everything he did was for him to evolve into an interstellar cultivator, to control his fate with his own hands. It could be considered that he had paid a heavy price.

Once one became an interstellar cultivator, no matter where he wandered to in the human world, he would be treated like a high-class guest!

Now, this long-robed man actually said that the Giant Pharmaceutical Company wanted to create an army of interstellar cultivators.

When did it become possible to 'manufacture' interstellar cultivators? The long-robed man spoke of them like tools created from the machinery of a factory that you could create as much as you wanted to.
