Chapter 1097 The Laboratory

Sassacus was the name of this wild man. His father had passed away from illness in his early years, and his mother had also died due to complications during childbirth. Left all alone, he was adopted by Mia. Due to some innate deficiencies, his intelligence is a bit behind, and now he only has the intellect of a child of a few years old. However, his martial arts talent was incredibly explosive. At just around 24 or 25 years old, he had already reached the supreme peak level of Flame Decay." Carolyn had faced him before, and although he felt that he might be stronger in terms of attributes, it didn't necessarily mean that she could defeat Sassacus. They had been walking for over a day, and it would probably take them about half a day more to reach the City of Phoenix. Most people in the group were skilled in martial arts, so their traveling speed was quite fast. "Saintess... Carolyn!" Mia said, struggling a bit with the pronunciation. She still instinctively called her Carolyn Saintess, but Carolyn always felt that the name sounded awkward. So, she asked everyone to simply call her Carolyn. However, these people also felt somewhat uncomfortable when they changed their ways. Mia asked, "Carolyn, is there really someone who possesses the Dragon Bone?" "Mmm!" Carolyn said, "We all came from our hometown together, and he's super awesome! But... I've reached the Eternal Level of Flame Decay now, so I can show off to him when I go back!" These days, they've been hurrying on their journey, unaware of everything happening outside. The group chatted and laughed as they made their way towards the City of Phoenix! The news continues to sweep across the entire Havotune. Above the Nether Domain, an aircraft floated above the sea. At this moment, two figures emerged from it. Alcoholic, carrying a wine jug, stepped onto the aircraf and said calmly, "To the City of Phoenix!" He had already received the news that the CEO Soulreaper Sect and the Blood Tribe were planning to attack the City of Phoenix! Outside, everything had nothing to do with Gerald. At this moment, they were walking down, one level after another. "We've made it!" At this moment, Anabel exclaimed, "We've successfully reached the ninety-ninth floor from the top down. Let's take a look at the map!" "Triston, Kristian, go hang lights all around the area!" Anabel said. Gerald took the initiative to hang up lamps all around them. In no time, their immediate vicinity was brightly lit. Surrounding them were numerous passageways, remarkably well-preserved. On both sides of these passageways, countless rooms could be found. The majority of these rooms had been opened, while a small portion remained tightly shut. The headquarters of the Promise Group is like a massive treasure trove, .controlled by the Eight Forces. It all comes down to who has better luck, obtains more keys, unlocks more areas, and acquires more valuable items. After the surroundings were illuminated, Gerald and the others gathered around the map for a long time. Then, Hector's face lit up with joy and he said, "The structure nearby is quite similar to what's on the map. We must be on the right floor." Gerald and the others also let out a slight sigh of relief! Ingenious Needles is located on the ninety-ninth floor counting from the bottom, then replaceing the subsequent floors without directions would be quite troublesome. Firstly, it would be extremely dangerous, and secondly, it would take a long time to search for them! "Let's go!' Gerald said. Anabel found some records of the ninety-nine levels they had developed, detailing the dangerous areas and the locations of various mechanisms. The information was incredibly thorough. Relying on this, Gerald and his companions indeed managed to avoid quite a bit of trouble. Two hours later, they arrived in front of a tightly closed door. What astonished Gerald was that, despite the passage of thousands of years, the door remained spotless, making him wonder what material it was made of. In fact, many of the technologies and materials in this world were difficult for Gerald to comprehend. Hector's face lit up with excitement. He knew he wasn't a top-tier genius like Gerald and Carolyn. He was well aware that his chances of breaking through the eternal level of Flame Decay were incredibly slim!. In the vast expanse of Havotune, amidst the countless lives and innumerable humans, only a few dozen people stand at this level. Hector might be among those with better natural talent, but he felt that once he reached the supreme peak level of Flame Decay, he might just collapse. He was different from Gerald and the others; he was already over a hundred years old, just appearing younger than his age. Sometimes, he was amazed himself. The population of Earth wasn't that large, but when it came to martial arts talent, it seemed like they were truly a cut above the people of Havotune! He couldn't figure out what was going on! In any case, Ingenious Needles is his opportunity to reach the eternal level of Flame Decay, and only then will he stand at the pinnacle of this world. With a slight tremble, he took out three keys. After trying for a while, the door in front of him... opened! An extremely eerie atmosphere emanated from the doorway. Even though Gerald possessed an ice attribute, he couldn't help but shudder involuntarily! "It's so chilly!" Triston exhaled. "These places haven't been opened for thousands of years; let's let some fresh air in first!" Anabel reminded them. Gerald and the others nodded in agreement. After waiting outside for a while, he cautiously picked up the lamp and ventured inside. The others followed suit and entered the room without much hesitation. They hung lamps around the room, which was quite enormous, spanning a few thousand square feet. Various instruments were placed inside, and the surrounding walls were lined with shelves, displaying a wide array of creatively designed bottles. "I think this might be a huge laboratory!" Anabel exclaimed excitedly. Kristian nodded in agreement, saying, "If we can move these things out, it would be a huge gain! But we'll have to wait until later. We have too few people right now." "Let's replace Ingenious Needles first! Gerald said, "Everyone, spread out and search in all directions!" "All right!" The group spread out within the room, all the while searching for places to hang energy stone lamps. As they did so, the entire room gradually became brightly. lit. These instruments inside have been around for thousands of years, and due to their age and lack of maintenance, it's likely that most of them no longer function. Kristian and the others were able to SAMU recognize some of the instruments, but Gerald and the rest of the people from Earth had no understanding of these at all. "These shelves seem to be filled with research materials on medicinal herbs," Valery excitedly said as she approached a wall lined with shelves. As a doctor, these things hold a much greater appeal to her than your Ingenious Needles. "What are these things!" At this moment, on the other side, Triston looked at the items displayed on the wall and said, "These... seem to be some virus samples. Damn, what on earth is Promise Group studying all day long!" "Try not to touch those things as much as possible," Gerald hurriedly reminded. The seven people continued their search throughout the laboratory, which seemed to be primarily focused on researching viruses and medicinal materials! Gerald walked up to a table, which was covered with a clutter of papers. Despite the mess, the rest of the research lab was relatively clean, and there was no dust on the documents. "Huh!" Gerald picked up one of the notebooks and, upon opening it,
