Chapter 222 Genesis Laboratory

Shi Hou was an Awakened One. His talent was similar to Gray Bear’s, also an effect of concealing his figure, but without the first strike ignoring defense.

Instead, his stealth time was unlimited. As long as he didn't attack, he wouldn't reveal himself! Additionally, when he was hidden, he also concealed all his aura and energy fluctuations, but his movement speed was reduced by half!

This talent, called Dimensional Stealth, didn't have any offensive abilities, but it was quite excellent in terms of concealment. This was also the reason why Remnant Soul sent Shi Hou to investigate the Liu family.

After all, they were one of the four great families. Without solid evidence, they couldn't afford to alert them. Otherwise, with their power, once they discovered they were being investigated, they could wipe out the evidence in minutes. The founder of Remnant Soul deeply understood this and repeatedly warned his subordinates.

After entering the Liu family, Shi Hou wandered around as if he were in his own home, relying on his talent.

This guy had an amazing talent, but he wasn't very reliable. Instead of following the family scion to find evidence, he looked here and there, even watching a few battles between men and women. In this world without the "Island Nation", it was an eye-opening experience, unlocking many positions!

Wandering east and west, this kid stumbled upon the core area of the Liu family manor. He saw a large building with extremely strict security. There were so many guards around that even he had to carefully sidestep to get past.

This aroused his curiosity. Such a heavily guarded place must have good things. A thief… no, he couldn't leave empty-handed, so he slipped past the guards.

When he reached the door of the building, he discovered that the access control was based on iris recognition. If the iris data didn't match, or if it was forcibly opened, an alarm would be triggered.

Shi Hou wasn't in a hurry and waited at the door. About half an hour later, a car drove in, and the guards let it through without asking any questions.

The car drove directly to the door, and several people got out. The leader approached the access control and used his iris to open the door, while another person took a bag from the car.

The bag was large, and the person carried it directly into the door. The person who opened the door stayed behind and closed the door, then waited in the car.

Shi Hou had already taken advantage of the open door to enter the access control, but he didn't go deep. He knew that such places might have traps, so it was best to be careful.

After the person carrying the bag entered, Shi Hou followed him all the way down a long corridor, then stopped in front of an elevator. The person also used his iris to open the elevator and walked in.

Shi Hou immediately understood that all access here required identity verification; otherwise, it would be impossible to move an inch!

However, Shi Hou didn't hesitate and followed into the elevator. The person didn't notice, and after putting down the bag, he operated the elevator. Unexpectedly, a small console popped up on the elevator's control panel.

All of this amazed Shi Hou. Even in the elevator, choosing a floor had hidden mechanisms? If it weren't for him, others might be discovered quickly even if they managed to sneak in.

After the person operated the elevator, it finally started running, heading downwards.

Shi Hou had expected this because the building only had three floors. If the elevator only went up, there would be no need for such strict security.

The elevator went down for almost two minutes before slowly stopping. Then, the elevator door opened, and the person walked out with the bag. Behind him, Shi Hou stared blankly at the outside.

Outside the elevator was a huge underground space, even larger than their stadium that could hold 200,000 people.

The entire underground space was brightly lit, with people coming and going. Everyone was wearing white coats, like researchers. The floor and ceiling of the space were made of Xingyuan metal.

This metal was quite expensive and generally used for building high-precision experimental sites. But now, such a huge space had walls, ceilings, and floors made of Xingyuan metal?

Shi Hou had never seen such extravagant people before and was stunned for a moment until he saw the elevator door in front of him closing. He quickly dashed out, breaking out in a cold sweat.

If he were trapped in the elevator, he wouldn't be able to open it and would have to wait for someone else to enter!

Although there were many people in the underground space, Shi Hou decided to continue following the person. After walking forward for a while, the person arrived at a room with a huge glass wall, allowing a clear view inside, and filled with many instruments.

He knocked on the door, and the person inside looked at him and opened the door. After walking in, the person put down the bag, untied it, and pulled out a man of about fifty or sixty years old.

"This is Professor Wang Yun, a genetics expert. I'll leave him to you!"

The person said, "I have to go out, I have another target this afternoon!"

"Okay!"

An old man of about seventy nodded, and the person turned and left.

Shi Hou, who had followed along, hesitated for a moment but decided to stay. The person had made it clear that he had to go out and had another target in the afternoon, so there was no need to follow him.

"Wake him up!"

After the person left, the door closed again. The old man looked at the unconscious Professor Wang Yun and said.

A young man next to him immediately stepped forward, took out an injection and stuck it into Wang Yun's neck, then stepped back. Wang Yun groaned and slowly woke up.

"This... where is this? What are you going to do?"

Professor Wang Yun asked groaning, looking dazed at the surrounding environment after waking up.

"This is Genesis Laboratory. From now on, you are a member here. I want you to devote yourself wholeheartedly. Here, you can get everything you need, but you must produce sufficient results, understand?"

The old man said expressionlessly.

"What I need is to leave here! Let me out! This is kidnapping! I'm going to report you to the police!"

Wang Yun shouted loudly.

"Sigh! Why do these guys always need to be educated after they come in? Are researchers so ignorant?"

The old man sighed and looked at Wang Yun, saying, "Alright, it seems I still have to go through the procedure so you'll become more obedient!"

With that, he waved his hand, and two young men stepped forward…
