Warlord

Chapter 76:



At noon, Victor made himself a simple hamburger out of bread and luncheon meat.

The clinic had reopened, and Victor’s life was back on track, except for the fact that it was a little deserted, with his wife, Kaelyn, missing.

Kareen’s body had been cremated by Victor, and the ashes were buried in the cemetery of a resident of the city that faced the sea.

Only Masters came to mourn, but Victor was already surprised.

After all, in this era, many people were indifferent to death, especially people like Masters, whose hands were stained with blood.

Now Victor had two rings on his finger.

One was his own, the other Kareen’s.

When he looked at the ring Kaelyn had left him, he felt as if his wife was accompanying him in a different way.

When the last crumbs were carefully put into his mouth, Victor reached zero.

The heavy locomotive almost directly rushed over, causing the residents on the street to curse out loud.

But the smell of blood kept them from approaching, and when he got off the engine, Victor realized that he was still carrying Leah on his back.

“God, he did.

Victor hurriedly ran out of the clinic. Seeing that Leah did not react, his heart sank.

Zero hurried into the clinic with Leigh on his back and said to Victor, “Quick, save her.”

Before he could finish his words, Zero’s expression changed.

Following which, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his stamina was instantly drained as he fell to the ground.

Lia’s body rolled twice, and as for Zerom, he was already foaming at the mouth and convulsing nonstop.

Ignoring Leah, Victor reached for the fluff and stuffed it into Zero’s mouth so that he wouldn’t bite his tongue.

When he tried to help it up, Victor’s fingertips caught the touch of his body. It was terrifyingly hot.

A sudden fever was not a good thing. In Victor’s memory, it was only after a genetic shock, or a genetic collapse, that the body suddenly reacted to the heat.

But Victor wasn’t sure what kind of situation zero was in right now.

When he regained consciousness, it was already two days later.

In his dazed state, he dreamed the dream again.

Like a dream in a hibernation pod, the image of a woman in a dream was always flashing before his eyes, but at the end of the dream, Leah’s body was covered in blood.

Zero woke up to Victor’s cluttered room and the red glow of the setting sun outside the window.

He jumped out of bed and found himself in better shape than ever.

Not only had he recovered from all his injuries, but after his battle with Saurun, he had five more evolution points in his body.

Including the 3 previously acquired evolution points, there were now 8 of them in total.

It was impossible to get so many evolution points just by fighting with Saurun. Zero could faintly guess that it was related to the insane state he was in.

In addition, he also felt that another ability was automatically generated.

When he reached out his conscious tentacles to gently push the ability, his palm suddenly became hot, and a ball of orange flames rose from his palm.

Although his palm was wrapped in fire, Zero did not feel any heat, as if the fire was a part of his body.

“Eh, when did you start playing with the Elemental Domain’s ability? It’s a fire element that’s known for its destructive power.”

The doctor looked tired, as if he hadn’t been to bed in days.

At Victor, Zero thought of Leah.

He shook the flame out and asked urgently, “How’s Leigh?”

“Not good, but you’re no better.”

Victor asked seriously, “Answer me first. How many times have you had a genetic shock?”

“Gene oscillation?”

Zero looked at Victor in puzzlement.

“It can’t be, you don’t know about gene oscillation?”

Victor ran his hand through his hair like a monster.

Gene concussion refers to the phenomenon of large-scale movement of genes in an organism.

The recombination and alignment of genes, in the process, releases additional space that allows the creation of special abilities.

This was how Adepts came about. It could be said that every Adept underwent the process of genetic oscillation. If the process didn’t result in a genetic breakdown, then a new Adept would be born.

After becoming an Adept, the genes would be fixed.

The only way to develop a new ability was to rely on the point of evolution. In general, however, it was impossible for Adepts to experience a second shock.

However, there was no absolute in this world. Even Adepts and other living creatures in the wild would experience a second or even multiple oscillation.

As long as these individuals survive, every genetic shock means rebirth.

Not only will each basic ability have a qualitative improvement, but it will also form a new and very powerful ability.

But according to available statistics, no more than a hundred individuals around the world survived the second concussion, and even fewer survived the third.

After Victor confirmed the zero, he confirmed that there was a genetic shock.

The combination of zero and the fact that he was an Adept was something Victor believed to be a second genetic shock. The doctor, however, had never thought that Zero would have a face full of surprise.

In fact, this is not a secondary concussion of zero.

To him, this was only the first time his genes had been shaken at zero.

The reason he’d been able to become an Adept was not because of the tremors in his genes. It was just as he’d guessed, it was because of the altered body.

There were some strange things in his body that allowed him to transcend the initial stage of the oscillation and reveal his special ability.

It was only until today, when Lia kissed herself and her mind was in a turmoil, that she unconsciously experienced her first shock.

After Victor explained what a genetic shock is, and what a second and even multiple oscillations can bring.

Zero carefully observed his stats. It was just as Victor had said, his stats had increased by a lot, and his abilities had automatically levelled up. This had doubled Zero’s overall fighting strength.

But Zero was more concerned about Lia’s situation.

Only, as Victor had said, Leah was in bad shape.

Hans’s blood had given Leah the ability to heal herself. It was this ability that had gradually healed the surface of her wounds. This was the basis for her survival.

But after Victor’s confirmation, Leigh, who had been brought back by Zero, was actually dead, only her body was still alive.

It was a very difficult phenomenon to explain. Leah was alive only because of the healing and regeneration of her flesh, but her internal organs had stopped working.

Victor explained that this was due to the incomplete transformation, and now that Leah was dead, the tissue of flesh and blood that had been regenerated from her wounds had already developed a lot of superfluous tissue without conscious control.

The growth of these tissues did not slow down until today, and gradually ceased, because Leah’s body had run out of nutrients.

He was both angry and sad when Lia, who had a mass of tissue on her body, appeared through the tempered glass.

“However, there might be a way to save her.”

“You have a way?”

Zero’s eyes lit up at Victor’s words.

Victor spread out his hands and said, “Listen, this is not a 100% success rate.”

But your wife, because of some kind of cell invasion, has very high blood cell activity.

“I’ve already extracted three tubes of such blood. If the conditions permit, I can extract enough genetic information from these blood vessels to clone another Leah for you.”

“Clone?”

You mean clone technology? ”

It was a strange word in the old days.

But in the zero limited memory, the old cloning technology is not widely used in human beings.

Unexpectedly, this technology seemed to have a trend of development after the Cataclysm.

Victor nodded. “Yes, clone.”

This technique had been perfected, and many noble lords had used it to support their own lives.

Although complete cloning was rare, it was not impossible.

But I don’t have the necessary equipment, and of course you don’t have the money to start the technology. ”

Zero took a deep breath and asked, “According to your calculations, how much does it take to carry out this project?”

“It’s just that I can’t do it alone. At the very least, I will need the assistance of experts in the field of human structure and genetics, as well as the related expenses of purchasing equipment and materials.

“The most conservative estimate is about 10 million.”

The doctor doesn’t think it’s worth anything.

“What if we deduct the equipment and materials?”

Zero asked seriously.

Victor then gave an answer, “That would require at least eight million yuan. In fact, equipment and materials are not a big deal. What we need more is to experiment.”

“There should be a lot of failed products before Lia is fully cloned. These are the goods that can only be eaten with money.”

“I understand. How long can Lia’s blood activity last?”

“About three years.”

Victor counted with his fingers.

Three years, at least eight million.

Of course, start-up funds don’t have to be so quick, but at least half the amount needed to provide the basic guarantee for a project to run.

Now, there was less than ten thousand in the zero credit card.

“Don’t tell me that you really intend to make such a large sum of money within three years?”

“If Kareen has a chance to be born again, I think you’ll think as seriously as I do.”

“All right, I admit it.”

But how are you going to get that much money? ”

“I don’t know.”

Zero replied honestly, “However, I think we can borrow some money first.”

“Who would be so generous?”

Victor could not believe that anyone would want to borrow such a sum.

“They can’t help it.”

Zero asked again, “Do you know how to get information on the Parkland plutocrats?”

Victor had heard of the big company, too. “I heard they were up north, but I think Masters will sell out some of the details.”

Zero nodded.

Sauron’s figure flashed through his mind.

North?

Even if you’re on the other side of the world, I’m sure I’ll find you!
