Chapter 1442: Laboratory

“In exchange, I need you to assist me with some experiments. Well, I haven’t decided on the exact experiment yet, but it’s very likely that this experiment will endanger your life.”

Upon hearing Wen Yu’s conditions, Ray quickly nodded—after deciding to meet Wen Yu and revealing all his secrets, their future, everything of his and Marcus’s, was tightly held in Wen Yu’s hands.

Let alone Wen Yu asking Ray to cooperate in dangerous experiments, even if Wen Yu wanted to turn Ray into a human specimen, Ray would have no choice.

However, in Ray’s view, Wen Yu’s “breadth of mind” is still relatively broad, at least this time Wen Yu didn’t say to simply execute them both, but instead gave them a “pleasant” choice. At least to Ray, this was quite an acceptable outcome.

Yet Ray did not know that Wen Yu didn’t actually put much emphasis on the so-called “identity.”

They were unaware that Wen Yu and Tang Haofei’s race was already half-human, half-demon. To Wen Yu, stance is important, but race and such things might not be as crucial.

Of course, the most crucial point was that Wen Yu saw a certain possibility in Ray and Marcus.

If Wen Yu’s prediction is correct, the importance of these two guys is likely beyond their own imagination!

Everything happening to them might be a cheaper, more applicable way to escape the Dominator’s control, involving things Wen Yu used to not understand, but now has some knowledge.

This Human-demon Conversion Technique might even touch the authority of the Celestial Gift Stone, not to mention the essence of the Celestial Gift Stone!

“Follow me.”

Saying this, Wen Yu stood up and led the way out of the room.

…

The situation was even better than Ray anticipated. He wondered what kind of experiments Wen Yu planned to conduct on his body, feeling uneasy, but his body obediently followed Wen Yu until they exited the military headquarters. Dragon Two prepared a car, and they drove back to Wen Yu’s estate in Yanjing.

The vehicle entered the estate, Wen Yu stepped out first, gave Dragon Two half a day off, then led Ray into the inner estate.

Passing through the main courtyard, side courtyard, meeting hall, reception room, and other buildings, Wen Yu led Ray to a rockery in the third garden, finally stopping.

‘Clack.’

With the mechanism activated, the rockery slowly moved aside, revealing a tunnel arranged with a barrier.

“Follow me.”

Saying this, Wen Yu first walked into the underground passage.

…

With the deep corridor crossed by the two of them, after a short while, terrifying wails and a strong stench of blood rushed in.

Seeing this, Ray immediately frowned, hesitating, seemingly doubting whether Wen Yu brought him here not just as he said merely for “experiments.”

“If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn’t need to do such complex things. Be honest and follow me, don’t worry about what you see or hear, and definitely don’t speak nonsense outside.”

Wen Yu spoke straightforwardly, and Ray also nodded with understanding.

As they walked further, eventually, light gradually appeared ahead, until a terrifying “science laboratory” came into Ray’s view.

…

“Wen Yu! Wen Yu!”

“Kill me! Kill me!”

“You’ll die a miserable death!”

Piercing wails filled the entire hall, Ray looked around, and his hair stood on end.

Everywhere were dismembered limbs, and several live specimens were firmly locked on racks, constantly issuing horrific howls.

“This is currently the strongest member of the Sea King Tribe, whom I brought in to study their habits and growth potential.”

Upon hearing Wen Yu’s introduction, Ray looked forward, seeing a dispirited member of the Sea King Tribe slowly raising its head, eyes filled with apparent death wish.

“You know, the Sea King Tribe are quite interesting. I want to extract their ability to absorb other species’ genes, but now it seems the experiment has hit a deadlock.”

Wen Yu finished speaking, casually glanced at his experimental materials, then continued leading Ray to the back.

Until two figures appeared in Ray’s view.

“Tang Haofei… and…”

“Yes, Tang Haofei’s duplicant and my duplicant, named Tang Haofei No.1 and Wen Yu No.1.”

Seeing “Old Tang” and “Wen Yu” bound on racks, covered in blood, guts exposed, Ray was horrified—studying one’s self, this is beyond pathological. Yet Wen Yu simply explained.

“Scientific progress always accompanies sacrifice, doesn’t it?”

Though Wen Yu is not a true scholar, with the Soul Abiogenetic Creation Skill in hand, he indeed leans more towards the identity of a scientist than a warrior.

And over these thirty-some years, this place has provided Wen Yu with a wealth of knowledge and methods to use the Soul Abiogenetic Creation Skill.

In short, this isn’t a pathological or abnormal fetish, it’s just the price required for skill research—and to Wen Yu, the price isn’t high.

“Alright, these are just my little hobbies, like Marcus accommodating the Demon Tribe. You don’t need to mind these things, and I won’t casually ruin you. Rest assured, for high-grade materials like you and Marcus, I’ll certainly handle with care.”

Not quite comforting comfort…

Ray could only smile bitterly and nod, then follow Wen Yu into a small lab within the hall.

…

“Name?”

“Ray.”

“I mean your original name as a member of the Demon Tribe.”

“Still Ray, also sir, does this matter so much? Didn’t you see it all from my memory?”

“Editing files, experiment logs, categorizing summaries, methods I learned from the Academy of Sciences. Some things hidden in the mind can’t compare to being recorded on paper.”

Wen Yu wrote swiftly, and Ray also smiled bitterly, cooperating in recording files until a dozen basic questions were asked. Wen Yu finally put down the pen and paper, opened the computer, and unnoticed by Ray, brought Lin Haifeng “in.”

“The specific time you transformed into the Human Race was?”

“The day the Level 5 Level Lock was unlocked.”

“As far as I know, the gap between professionists and the Demon Tribe lies mainly in the restrictions of the Level Lock, the use of certain items, access to treasure land and the use of the Exchange Stone Pillar… Is this correct?”

“Yes, sir, there is no mistake.”

“Then, after you transformed into a human, did you find that the aforementioned permissions, did they change?”

This question is most crucial, and also Wen Yu’s biggest concern.

“Yes!”

Hearing Wen Yu’s question, Ray immediately nodded.
