Chapter 2075 - 1610: Situation_4

Dr. Ankoji hurriedly approached, greeting the elderly figure.

"You have arrived, sir."

"Is the fruit ripe?"

The elderly figure asked hoarsely.

"Sir, both Pala Fruits are ripe and ready for consumption now."

Dr. Ankoji responded excitedly.

"Take me to see them."

The elderly figure hoarsely commanded.

"Yes!"

Anason quickly pushed the elderly figure toward the center of the laboratory.

Soon they arrived in front of a massive cultivation tank.

The Pala Fruit Tree was inside, with two fruits hanging from it, fully matured. Their color had transitioned from red to purple, and despite the container barrier, a faint aroma lingered, invigorating the senses.

"Take one out!"

The elderly figure coldly commanded.

"Yes!"

Dr. Ankoji immediately took action.

Shortly, a Pala Fruit was removed and carefully presented to the elderly figure, the size of the fruit was not very large.

The elderly figure took it, wasting no time on processing it into a potion, and brutally devoured it whole, not wasting a single drop.

After consuming the Pala Fruit, the terrifying Polluted Blood Stain on the elderly figure’s skin showed slight changes; the contamination within seemed to be suppressed as his eyes gleamed with a sharp light. He spoke to Dr. Rohar.

"Extract blood!"

"Sir, what is this?"

Dr. Rohar was momentarily dumbfounded.

"Must I repeat myself?"

"I dare not!"

Dr. Rohar quickly fetched the specialized blood extraction equipment.

Soon, everything was ready. The specially crafted needle pierced into the elderly figure’s arm vein.

Dark red blood was drawn out.

Dr. Rohar looked at the color of the blood in shock; it was dark red.

Usually, the extracted blood was black.

Not long after, the blood extraction was complete, and the elderly figure, who had initially regained some vitality, suddenly seemed to wither like an old tree, aging rapidly.

The elderly figure slightly raised his head, looking at everyone present, and weakly warned: "If anyone dares to leak a word of today’s events, you know the consequences."

"Yes."

Everyone present felt a sudden shock in their hearts.

Despite the elderly figure’s weak tone, they were acutely aware of his ruthless methods.

At this moment, Dr. Rohar spoke to the elderly figure: "Sir, your body is now extremely weak, you should quickly consume the other Pala Fruit."

"No need."

The elderly figure replied coldly.

"But."

"No buts."

The elderly figure responded assertively.

Seeing this, Dr. Rohar could only sigh and shut his mouth. At this time, the elderly figure looked at Dr. Ankoji, calmly saying.

"You should know what to do next, right?"

Dr. Ankoji quickly replied: "Rest assured, sir, we will not disappoint your expectations. Give us more time, and the VI Genetic Potion will be completed."

"Very good."

The elderly figure was very satisfied with this answer.

...

In the deep of night, inside a utility room.

A shadow sneaked in stealthily, looking around furtively.

"Yue Ji."

At this point, Coret emerged from the side.

Yue Ji was startled, but after recognizing Coret’s appearance, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why so tense, what’s up with you seeking me at this critical moment?"

"It’s a tremendous matter."

Yue Ji quickly replied.

"Oh, tell me more."

Coret showed interest.

"The Pala Fruits have ripened, and the sir has gone to the laboratory."

Yue Ji said to Coret.

Upon hearing Yue Ji’s words, Coret’s expression changed and he asked: "Did he consume it?"

"He consumed it."

"How effective is it?"

"The effect is unclear, but it’s certain the sir’s bodily functions are extensively failing, unlikely to improve and will only worsen."

"That’s good then."

"It’s just after consuming the Pala Fruit, the sir conducted a blood extraction for the production of the VI Genetic Potion. I heard from Dr. Ankoji that the VI Genetic Potion is close to completion."

Yue Ji said to Coret.

Upon hearing this news, Coret’s face twisted.

It’s clear the Genetic Potion wasn’t intended for the elderly figure, as it wouldn’t be effective for him. If his guess is correct, the Genetic Potion is likely meant for Su Mo.

Thinking of this, Coret burst out with a terrifying killing intent.

Frightening Yue Ji into retreating continuously, his face filled with horror.
