Chapter 799 - Reinforcing DNAs (2/2)
“Of course, we could also obtain powers by devouring and consuming them. It’s like photosynthesis. These creatures have made our energies more potent after absorbing them. And more importantly, they made these energies much easier to consume and be incorporated into the human body. Still, most of what I’m saying here is just based on theory. Too bad we could not get a hold of too many human samples to test the theory. However, a few members here have tried to test it on themselves.”
“Still, it would be best if we could get some ordinary civilians for our research. This would make it easier for us to determine if pure, ordinary civilians could evolve rapidly via consuming these creatures!”
Of course, Qin Feng knew about this. He himself had consumed the energies from those mutant plants and it worked. Right now, he was probably the only real B5-tier ability user in this dimension.
Nonetheless, he did not intend to help these mad scientists to prove their theories.
“Okay, okay! I get it. But I still need to bring the Devourer with me. If you’re not coming with me, at least bring someone to accompany me so I could manage the beast.”
“Alright.”
Seeing that Qin Feng did not intend to stay and learn more about what their lab was researching on, the researcher nodded and summoned a person to his side—it was a serious-looking young boy, about thirteen years of age. He had a full head of silver hair and wore a pair of glasses.
“His name is Chu Fan. Don’t be fooled by his ordinary looks though!” The researcher pointed a finger at his own head. “This boy is a genius. He has even displayed signs of consciousness manipulation without going through the awakening serum! Right now, he is the only person who can move items using his mind! It’s really amazing to see that his abilities have not faded away even though this area has undergone a spatial overlap!”
Qin Feng was surprised to hear this. “So, can you use spatial waymarks?”
Chu Fan pushed the pair of glasses on his nose bridge and answered, “No. My consciousness is a little different than yours.”
Qin Feng was a little disappointed to hear that. If one could use spatial waymarks or spatial rune equipment, they could build a barrier around the civilians and extract all of them out of the Fettering Land in one go.
Nonetheless, this was not possible right now.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Chu Fan nodded as another researcher handed him a small glass bottle. The bottle had an oxygen tank installed in it. When Qin Feng took a look through the bottle, there was a seal-like creature about the size of a mouse residing in it.
‘So, this is the Devourer? Damn, it is just a small mouse!’
Still, Qin Feng was grateful that it was not something that was huge. If not, it would be a pain in the ass to bring it out of the Fettering Land.
Chu Fan then brought Qin Feng to a tunnel. Qin Feng frowned as he realized that they were walking toward the direction outside of the city.
“We’re going out of the city? Right now the entire city is enveloped in a spatial overlap. If we stray too far away, we might not be able to head back to the city center!”
Chu Fan took a cold glance at Qin Feng and saw his badge and weapon. “This is the path we usually take to go out of the lab. We normally use this path to acquire the research materials.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng did not stop Chu Fan from leading him further. He was curious as to where this path would bring them.
A few moments later, they reached a door. Chu Fan pushed open the door and, sure enough, they were already out in the open.
