Chapter 4087 Is this... a poison intended for me?
"What...what happened?!"
The door to the small warehouse opened instantly, and warning lights indicating a dangerous situation lit up all around... Uchi desperately protected his underwear and scrambled out as if he were crawling.
"Damn it! I was about to succeed, and now... who's ruining my plans!"
Next up was Miss Jenny, who looked furious.
Although her anger hadn't subsided, the large-scale alarm within the base indicated an extremely serious incident. "Brother Uchi, don't be afraid, I'll go see what happened! You stay here and wait for me to come back!"
Without waiting for Uchi's reaction, Miss Jenny pushed him into the small warehouse, locked the door again, and stormed off to find out what had happened.
Inside the small warehouse, Uchi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Almost, almost! The boy's most precious treasure, which he had cherished since birth, was about to be taken away. He was truly terrified!
Jenny's strength is truly incredible, it feels comparable to a large-sized [White Wolf Dragon]... Jenny is practically a humanoid [White Wolf Dragon], isn't she?
There was no way to wait for Jenny to return. The door to the small warehouse was locked, so it seemed the only option was to sneak away through the ventilation duct... With the tool bag he carried, Uchi quickly and successfully removed the cover of the ventilation duct. He was rather thin, so climbing inside didn't feel too cramped.
"But speaking of which, what exactly happened at the Deep Base..."
Soon, Uchi found out what had happened inside the base!
Through the ventilation opening in the pipe, Uchi saw in horror the [White Wolf Dragons] rioting inside the base... and in the passageway, there were also many injured employees lying there, groaning in pain.
However, thanks to the base's security system and the efforts of its staff, the chaotic situation is being brought under control.
Hearing the conversations of the staff who were constantly putting out the fire and dealing with the White Wolf Dragon cubs, it was fortunate that no one seemed to have died, only been injured.
"This……"
But Yuchi was still terrified... Could it be that Mr. [Levi Titus] did something dangerous?
He felt it was very likely, otherwise the timing wouldn't have been so coincidental.
A mix of panic and regret began to creep in, and Uchiha broke out in a cold sweat—Mr. Li Wei, he was the one who brought him in!
"I'm not going to get fired, am I? No, no, I might even go to jail..." Uchi felt a wave of dizziness wash over him. "I don't want to..."
He suddenly realized that he needed to find Mr. Li Wei first!
Crawling through the tunnel!
……
……
Newborn cubs are generally quite ugly, but they can be raised with patience... Boss Luo can easily make [Reshiram] skip the infancy stage and go straight to the complete form, but at the same time he will lose the fun of raising it.
Perhaps a fully-formed Reshiram would be a very powerful individual, but as the "shopkeeper," Boss Lo doesn't lack that.
"Go and see if your companion has been born yet."
He chuckled, placed the cub [Reshiram] on his shoulder, and walked toward the separate control room next door.
This is naturally the room with the maid.
No matter when or where, no matter what important thing they are doing, the moment Boss Luo appears, the maid's gaze will be drawn away from everything else and focused entirely on Boss Luo.
This time was no surprise.
"Owner."
"Let's see your progress." Boss Luo walked over with a smile, his eyes fixed on the petri dishes on the operating table.
Unlike when Reshiram was born, which resembled a bunch of mutated and diseased cells proliferating wildly, the cells in the petri dish in the maid's hands were arranged in an orderly fashion, with groups of symmetrical and interwoven cells, resembling the geometric golden ratio of normal cell division.
Beyond the dividing cells, a thin, continuously solidifying and thickening biofilm appears... making it very stable.
The overall impression is like an ostrich egg being illuminated by a light.
“A very strong vitality.” Boss Luo moved closer, almost touching the peeling cover, his eyes slightly brightening.
Unlike Reshiram, whose fate was left to chance, in Boss Luo's view, this cub didn't even need to experience the tribulations that came with birth. Instead, it was a near-perfect evolutionary path allowed by the rules.
In a more fantastical way, they are born with a Daoist physique, innate holy spirit-like qualities, and are favored by heaven and earth.
The maid was clearly quite satisfied with the creation, a smile still lingering on her face. She was now curiously examining the cub on Boss Luo's shoulder.
If she was cultivating perfect order, then this is just... a chaotic yet strangely reasonable paradoxical disorder.
But if it exists, it must have a reason.
"It will take a little more time."
"The maid said softly."
"I'll go check on Xia Ji and Bai Zhi... and also, deal with some issues."
Boss Luo chuckled, stepped forward, hugged the maid, pressed his cheek against hers, and then left.
The cultivation of maids is not a one-time process; it involves many steps, and special materials are continuously added depending on the stage of the process.
Looking at the materials placed on the workbench, it was clear that they were no longer something the incubation base could provide—these were obviously the maid's personal stash.
Who knows how much stuff she added?
……
The cultivation progress of [Xia Ji] and Bai Zhi is not fast. Under normal circumstances, this is a rather time-consuming process... [Xia Ji]'s progress is much faster.
As for Bai Zhi, she was still unleashing her full power. She used materials randomly, but in fact, she had already encountered a dilemma in the early stages of cultivation, and her little green hair was already in a mess.
Boss Luo sensed it and found that Xiao Baizhi's work... was somewhat difficult to describe.
He didn't go in to disturb them, but went to the outer hall to fetch some nutrients for Reshiram for its first feeding.
"Learn how to control your breath."
"Meow?"
Boss Luo patiently explained as he fed the child.
He can hear the voice of all things, and all things... can hear his voice as well.
Even though it is only a newborn, a chaotic [forbidden species], [Reshiram] is like a cub about to be born in the maid's hands, possessing the characteristic of being born with knowledge.
Just then, the door to the backup incubation room was suddenly flung open with a "whoosh".
Boss Luo glanced over casually and saw a pair of plump lips painted a deep green, like poison... that was the distinguishing feature.
Princess Li Guo of the Empire's Anle Kingdom possesses a beauty that is both deadly and captivating, like a deadly poison.
……
"Is this the place Lashara spoke of...?"
Li Guo's gaze swept across the hall, then, as if drawn by a magnet, he stared at the figure feeding the cubs.
He sat there, leaning against the table, casually resting his chin on his hand, a nutrient solution in his other hand, a gentle smile on his face.
Li Guo's heart skipped a beat.
She had seen countless beauties. With the continuous genetic optimization and iteration of the Empire's humans, so-called beauties were plentiful, but truly outstanding ones were few and far between.
She felt an unprecedented sense of naturalness emanating from this black-haired, black-eyed man.
No genetic optimization or so-called minor adjustments are needed to achieve perfection, and even her appearance alone cannot compare to that of a stunning beauty. Yet, at this moment, Li Guo could not tear his gaze away.
From the gaze to the spirit, extending to the body and physiology, it seemed that even the primitive cell nucleus was rejoicing at this moment—this sudden feeling even left Li Guo somewhat at a loss.
what……
I want him!!!
"Livi Titus?" Li Guo's gaze sharpened slightly, filled with doubt and inquiry, as he approached like a noble phoenix on its journey.
She was extremely tall, nearly 1.9 meters, with wisps of green hair that swayed like willow branches.
"Is this the [Forbidden Species] that you cultivated?"
Li Guo looked down at him and said.
Her heart pounded even harder. Everyone said she was a deadly poison, but she felt that the person in front of her was... the real deadly poison to her.
She even began to believe that this was an individual created by someone who had studied everything about her and then absorbed everything that could elicit psychological and physiological reactions from her, all in an attempt to deal with her.
It's not impossible... Royal family infighting is always ruthless and unscrupulous.
Just then, [Reshiram] suddenly opened its eyes wide towards Li Guo, instinctively sensing danger from Li Guo... and a trace of its own kind.
That aura of its kind is equally powerful; at least for now... it can't contend with it!
But this does not diminish its protectiveness towards its owner.
It is essentially still the White Wolf Dragon, and once this creature recognizes a master, it will follow the host to the death, regardless of whether the host is good or bad, and will sacrifice its own life when necessary.
"Meow!!!"
A weak but extremely dangerous mental shock struck instantly!
Li Guo merely glanced at the cub that was challenging her, paying it no heed... Putting aside the protection [X] provided for her, as one of the most outstanding members of the royal family, her royal bloodline was already extremely powerful, and her spiritual strength was like a vast ocean.
[Reshiram]'s dangerous mental impact was like a tornado suddenly rising in the ocean, creating waves a hundred meters high, but it was also instantly buried in the sea.
"Quiet down." Li Guo's gaze was cold, and his voice was domineering and brooked no refusal.
[Rahiram] trembled slightly. This woman was no good, but she was much more difficult to deal with than the previous woman who was no good either.
But it did not give in. Instead, it seemed as if its fighting spirit had been ignited, and its weak strength was rapidly increasing, instantly unleashing its potential.
Just then, Boss Luo gently tapped Reshiram's little head with his finger.
[Reshiram] was momentarily stunned, turning her gaze towards him in confusion, "Meow?"
—This woman is no good!
Master, protect him!
“She’s right, you need to be quieter.” Boss Luo smiled slightly. “You’ve already made quite a commotion, don’t push yourself too hard, it’s not good for your growth.”
[Forbidden Species] Although it is not tolerated by heaven and earth and is naturally powerful... it is still only a few days old, and it hasn't even grown any fur yet, so what kind of combat power does it need?
In Boss Luo's eyes, at this stage, all that [Reshiram] needs to do is be cute.
At this moment, Li Guo was watching with great interest, or rather, admiring... The voice was also very pleasant, with a magnetic quality.
Under the dual attraction of soul and body, Li Guo became increasingly wary—this might really be a poison aimed at him.
"Sorry, it's new and can't control its emotions yet."
“It’s alright,” Li Guo said calmly. “As a [Forbidden Species], it’s normal for it to behave this way. As for you…”
She gave him a deep look, her apprehension growing stronger, but finally said, "You... are quite impressive. You managed to cultivate a [Forbidden Species] using such rudimentary equipment. Are you interested in working for me?"
Mr. Luo shook his head. "I have my own business now and I'm not considering working for someone else at the moment, but I still appreciate your kindness."
Li stared intently and said, "You don't know who I am?"
Boss Luo thought for a moment, "Princess Anle of the Empire."
Li Guo's expression suddenly changed, becoming cold and serious. He said in a deep voice, "So, you're rejecting me?"
Boss Luo smiled slightly and said, "It's not a rejection, it's just that we haven't reached an agreement yet. Your Highness can recruit me if you want, but what would I get in return?"
“What do you want?” Li Guo chuckled softly. “You have cultivated a [Forbidden Species], but you cannot keep it within the Empire. Become mine, and I can keep this cub by your side.”
Boss Luo said calmly, "The Forbidden Species will bring great disaster. As a princess of the empire, shouldn't Your Highness consider the safety of the empire first?"
“Only things that are uncontrollable need to be considered.” Li Guo narrowed his eyes. “But I will make everything controllable… And, whatever I want to get, I will definitely get…”
— [Sizzle]!
Just then, the door to one of the independent control rooms suddenly opened, and Xiao Baizhi ran out excitedly, holding something in her hands. "Master, look at what I've cultivated..."
Bai Zhi was slightly taken aback, tilting her head in confusion as she looked at the very tall woman, wondering why there would be a stranger here.
Upon seeing Bai Zhi, Li Guo gasped in surprise, her deep green lips parting in astonishment, "Lucia, how come you..."
No, it's not Lucia.
This is clearly just a young girl, more like Princess Lucia in her youth.
Li Guo had been extremely familiar with his aunt in the royal family since birth... The sight of Bai Zhi, who looked so much like Lucia in her youth, was an enormous shock to Li Guo.
The appearance of the [forbidden species].
Levi Titus... This is like a poison specifically formulated for himself!
A girl who looks just like Lucia.
The princess of the empire's expression darkened slightly as she stared intently at Boss Luo. "You... are you one of Lucia's people?"
Boss Luo shook his head. "I haven't met that princess yet."
Li Guo's expression was uncertain. Regardless of the circumstances, once the Princess was involved, she would not hesitate to destroy even the most alluring poison.
A murderous intent flashed by...
