103 Crystallized Medicine Creation Technique (2/2)
”Quickly catch hold of him, do not let him escape!”
”What medicinal substance was that?”
....
In the R&D department, chaos was everywhere. The researchers were fleeing in all directions.
Feng Lin instinctively wanted to act, but he hurriedly curbed that impulse and pretended to be frightened as he retreated.
Chi! Chi! Chi!....
Fiery rays of light shot over. Aike's reaction was extremely fast as he already took out a ray gun and was firing at the test subject.
That test subject's figure flashed, and at the last moment, he actually managed to dodge the rays. It felt like time had slowed down before him. He was even able to evade the attacks from a ray gun.
”Bullet time! He must have awakened the Adrenaline Gene!” The researchers in the R&D department were all genetic experts, how could they be unable to tell that this test subject had awakened the Adrenaline Gene and gained the ability of bullet time?
Chi, chi, chi!
Aike's expression turned malevolent as he continuously fired with the ray gun. The test subject entered the state of bullet time and dodged every single attack. A pair of bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at Frank; they were filled with malice and hatred.
He could recognize the leader of these people who harmed him and his comrades. It was as though he had gone mad as he spared nothing to rush over.
”Manager, be careful!” Aike shouted.
Frank stood at his original location, not moving at all. His hands suddenly made a gesture as he pressed them in a downward motion.
BOOM!
An explosion suddenly rang out in the air as a formless pressure as heavy as a mountain directly bore down on everyone.
The people of the R&D department wasn't prepared at all and suffered collateral damage. They were all pressed down on the floor. Their four limbs stuck to the ground, unable to move at all.
Feng Lin straightened his back. He initially wanted to gather strength and resist it, but when he saw his surroundings, he instantly decided to give up resisting and allowed the pressure to press him to the ground.
It wasn't that he was unable to resist this pressure, but he chose to be low-profile instead.
Feng Lin didn't want his identity as an interstellar cultivator to be exposed to these people. It would be equivalent to his strongest trump card being revealed.
The human test subject was initially extremely fierce but right now, he was completely suppressed and couldn't move at all. He was now like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Feng Lin's heart sank. He didn't expect that Manager Frank, who seemed like nothing more than a scientist, was actually a hidden cultivator.
That formless pressure caused everyone to feel as though their weights had multiplied by a factor of three to four times!
This is gravity!
Could it be that he had awakened the Gravity Gene?
Feng Lin silently speculated as his mind churned quickly.
If in the future, when he encountered an enemy using the power of this Gravity Gene on him, how should he defend against it?
Right now, Manager Frank stood there unmoving, yet he easily subdued the human test subject, causing looks of fear and respect to appear on the faces of everyone in the surroundings.
”Capture him. He is a valuable specimen!” Frank commanded coldly. After that, he continued, ”After ingesting the powdered crystals, from an ordinary test subject till now, no harm came to him at all. Not only that, but he has even awakened the Adrenaline Gene; thus, we must study and record all his data! This might be the key to how we can unlock the secrets of the ancient divine medicine.”
Upon seeing the test subject being subdued, those researchers who were fleeing earlier all had malicious smiles on their faces. They looked like a pack of wolves and tigers eyeing their prey.
The test subject turned his bloodshot eyes over and stared ruthlessly at Frank. His face was filled with reluctance and rage. But all of a sudden, the emotions on his face changed to panic and fear. He opened his mouth wide and was clearly drawing in a breath. His body then inflated like a balloon as he kept convulsing, reaching his limit. All of a sudden, he exploded in an instant, becoming a rain of blood and flesh that covered the surroundings.
Those researchers couldn't evade in time and screamed miserably when they were drenched completely with blood and flesh of the test subject.
It failed!
When Aike who was at the side saw this scene, the weight on his heart actually eased as he drew a deep breath of comfort.
This Feng Lin managed to discover the Crystallization Medicine Creation Technique by researching the ancient divine medicine and achieved a huge breakthrough. It actually caused him to feel great pressure.
If Feng Lin continued to develop, wouldn't he become Feng Lin's subordinate someday?
No matter how much goodwill he felt toward Feng Lin, in the face of competing for benefits, all of his goodwill had already vanished.
His gaze toward Feng Lin gradually turned cold and emotionless. This scene of failure was something he was very willing to see.
Since the body of the test subject had exploded, it was clear that he could not endure the medicinal potency. This meant that although the Crystallization Medicine Creation Technique was of little use, failure was still failure. This brat wasn't able to threaten his position.
However, the next words spoken by Frank caused his expression to turn ashen as his heart sank again.
It was true that the powdered crystals had failed. But from it, Frank saw a very high possibility that it would be successful in the future. Frank instantly made a decision. He turned and looked at Feng Lin as he solemnly announced.
”Feng Lin, I will appoint you as the leader of a new research taskforce. Your mission is to specially perfect this Crystallization Medicine Creation Technique!”
