Chapter 91: Experiments
Chapter 91: Experiments
Navaka was famous for its advanced technology and the main job city for the students who graduated from the Lyfrone Academy. It wasn't difficult for the student to get a job, but there wasn't a life guarantee.
Before Viktor left his job after saving so much money, he moved some important files related to the dozens of missing cases. They were all top students of Lyfrone and their existence has been erased by nobody but the principal himself.
Viktor knew he was up to no good and kept his mouth shut because he simply doesn't care. But in his records, an odd connection was found between the dragon guardian and the missing students. So, he finally made up his mind to search for ways to achieve his next goal.
From his survey, all the missing students worked in a research centre called DuLio. It was under a non-governmental organization which was directed by Ihanas, the counts family. After Viktor read his record, things became more messed up.
The count has a secret connection with the headmaster and they wanted Viktor's head for a million gold. But since his existence was erased, the operation vanished.
Viktor's head was supposed to be an offer to an unknown being that lives under the temple. So the links came to a single conclusion, they were all working for the dragon guardian from the very beginning.
Viktor was stunned to read it from the director's record after a long time. He doesn't really care about who's plotting something behind his back so he simply ignored everyone's record. But when he found out the real reason, he was sure that the dragon guardian knew exactly who Viktor was. He was playing with him all alone by making him do all the work. A sly bastard who loves to make things complicated.
Viktor accidentally cut the rose instead of cutting the extra leaf in anger. He was so angry that the rose died because of the aura that leaked from his hand.
Ugh! My rose!!
"Adonis!!"
Adonis came running to the balcony and said, "Master! What's wrong?"
Viktor looked at his face and saw the slimy facemask dripping from his chin. He was busy with his skincare routine that he recently found pretty exciting and healthy from the nearest beauty salon he visited.
He was beyond handsome than any other man in the whole world but seeing him taking care of his skin made Viktor's soul fell from a huge building. So he pouted his lips and said, "What is that?"
"It's honey face mask, master. But tell me what do you need first?"
"There's a guardian hiding under the city and becoming stronger by eating strong humans daily. Unfortunately, that punk set a jammer seal in his soul so I can't enter his records."
Adonis removed his facemask with a splash of water magic and looked at Viktor with a shocked face. "A guardian in this city, master?"
"No, there are two of them. One is living under a temple and the other one is imitating humans to keep his identity hidden from the other guardian."
Adonis removed the dead plant and took out a new plant from his dimensional pocket to place it on the vase cage. He looked at the city horizon without turning back and said, "Master, do you want to kill them?"
Viktor stayed silent for some moment and answered, "I can't use my guardian aura too much because the fire guardian is searching for suspicious persons around the universe. So, we need to follow a different path."
"How long do you intend to hide your true strength, master? Are you weaker than the fire guardian?"
Viktor laughed and said, "No man, I'm far stronger than the first-generation guardians. That touch is nothing compared to my true strength. But I can't race with the dogs, right? Since I'm a jaguar, I should maintain my place."
"Master, you sure know how to flex."
"Where did you learn that word-_-."
"Nowhere. You should be careful when you take care of your plants from now on. And you don't have to use your powers as long as you wish. I'm making a humanoid chimera in my dimensional room. I guess we can use it as a test subject to start your operation."
Viktor raised his eyebrows and said, "Wow! Already? How many did you make?"
"You should come inside and take a look."
Adonis made a portal to his personal dimensional room and Viktor went inside in excitement to see what he was up to. But the first thing he saw blew his mind.
It's like I'm walking inside a villain's laboratory. Just look at those floating half-made bodies inside the glass water tank.
Adonis walked closer to him and asked, "What do you think of my experiment master?"
Viktor gazed inside a tank with a fully grown-up body and said, "It's spectacular!"
"This one is called test subject 003. The first two were failures and their body exploded after the first clearance test. This subject is ready to come out."
A dimensional room is the bigger version of a dimensional pocket. But there are huge differences between them. A dimensional pocket is a small space where only non-living things can be stored. There's no breathable air which is connected to the world, so no living things can enter. It rejected everything alive. But it's not the same case with a dimensional room.
A dimensional room can be big as a mansion where living things can enter and live. But without the owner's permission, nobody can open the room or exit the room. There's no day or night inside the room and the time flows exactly the same as the reality.
The dimensional room Adonis has was made by Viktor with his tears of pearls. It was a great source of mana so Viktor thought it would be a waste not to use it. So, he built a huge laboratory with a mansion for Adonis on his birthday.
After that, he used his dimensional room for his personal storage and started his weird experiment with Elena's body.
Viktor walked closer to the glass tank where Elena was floating and saw she was staring at him. She was alive inside the talk with full consciousness.
"Adonis, is this normal for her to be alive in this state?"
"Oh, yes. Because I used some potions to stop her pain sensation. So she won't feel any pain even if I cut off her head."
Half of her body was being separated for other experiments and surprisingly, she was growing back like a lizard tail. So Viktor tapped on the glass and smiled at her. "We'll use you well. So go to sleep."
"Master, you should wear this apron. Because I'm going to open test subject 3."
He's like a real villain scientist who's happy to test his chimeras. I think I raised him well.
Viktor wore his apron and stood behind Adonis to see how the test works. The tank drained all the water out with a push of a button and the chimera started to move like a fish out of the water. It was unable to breathe because of the membrane inside its mouth and nose.
"Shouldn't we help it?" Viktor asked.
"Don't worry master, it has mana within its body so it will figure it out."
Adonis opened the door to the tank and the clone fell out of its nest. Because it was a newborn clone, it was struggling to stand up and breathe. It removed its slime inside his mouth on its own and started to breathe just as Adonis said.
"It's like a real human, but he has no record above its head. It's a soulless being!"
"Yes, master. It doesn't have any soul. It's like a parasite that follows the command of Its owner unconditionally."
The clone looked similar to Elena but it was genderless. There was no sign of any female or male sex organs on its body.
"Adonis, are you sure this thing can follow your command? It's staring at the light."
The clone was moved to the testing room to check if its organs were working, but it was showing no response to sounds or touch.
"No, it's normal master. It currently has the brain of a bug so it's attracted to light. I'm going to run some more tests and I can finally start to teach him. I hope this subject doesn't blow up after eating food."
"Yuck…"
Adonis laughed after seeing Viktor's disgusting face, so he gave him a red cherry candy to calm his stomach.
"Master, if I can successfully make a clone, you won't have to fight with the dragon guardian or the fire guardian. I can make a clone and make it a scapegoat for you so that we can get out of this planet."
Viktor patted his head and smiled to say, "Hahaha! You don't have to work this hard. But if you're interested in human biology, I will search for some advanced medical books from a doctor's record and transfer the knowledge to you. That will help you understand more about the human body."
"I will gladly accept your gift, master."
It's a good thing that he doesn't reject anything from me now. He knows that I will give him something that he wishes for. Moreover, he's devoting himself to serving me with everything he can. So, I think I should repay him tenfold as his master.
He's a genius after all.
