“It’s really spectacular…”
Daenerys looked at the underwater scenery outside the elevator with envy.
Zuo Yu smiled and asked, "Why, you want it too?"
Daenerys thought for a moment and shook her head, "Let me just take a look. You are the king of the underground world, and you built such a base to keep it secret. I don't have the need to keep it secret, so there is no need to spend a lot of money to build such an underwater base."
"good!"
Zhao Lihe nodded in agreement.
Soon, the elevator landed at the bottom. As the elevator door slowly opened, a blond man wearing a white coat and glasses was already waiting outside the door.
"Chairman."
The blond man with glasses bowed respectfully.
Zuo Yu smiled as he walked out of the elevator. He placed his hand on the shoulder of the blond man with glasses and introduced him to Zhao Lihe and Daenerys, "This is Dr. Bosco Cross, the chief researcher and general manager of the West Coast Base. He is a genius in the fields of biology, chemistry and medicine. He is also my confidant and the general manager of future space portals and cross-border cooperation."
Zuo Yu then smiled and introduced Cross, "These two are distinguished guests from other worlds who are visiting the base, Mr. Zhao and Miss Targaryen. I have already told you about their identities before, right?"
"Of course, Chairman!"
Cross smiled slightly and bowed to the two again.
"Greetings to your Majesties..."
"No need to be so polite!"
Zhao Lihe raised his hand with a smile, his attitude very friendly.
After all, he will have to deal with this person in charge in the future, so it is better to establish a good relationship with him.
Daenerys thought so too. She could be a little rude in front of Zuo Yu because she was the youngest sister among the alliance members, but in front of the members of these affiliated forces, she had to show the responsibility and commitment of a queen.
Dr. Cross also behaved very modestly and politely. Although he was well aware that the technological levels of these two worlds were far inferior to that of this world, he still did not show the slightest arrogance or contempt.
Because he knew that both worlds contained a lot of mysterious knowledge and rich resources.
And these resources are exactly what their west coast base needs.
After all, maintaining such an underwater base is extremely expensive.
It is impossible for Zuo Yu to just invest money in it every year, so he requires them to produce certain results every year, otherwise they will have to cut spending.
With the help of ample funds and resources from other worlds, the laboratory is now producing many results. At least in the next five years, there is no need to worry about the boss cutting laboratory expenses. But who can predict what will happen in the future?
As the chief officer of the West Coast Base, Dr. Cross felt that he needed to consider himself and his researchers, so it was impossible for him to let go of these two wealthy men from another world.
When asking for help from others, one should naturally be polite, humble and enthusiastic.
Dr. Cross led the way for everyone and actively introduced the situation of the West Coast Base.
"The West Coast Base has three floors in total. Except for the first floor, the other two floors are still under development and have not officially been put into use."
"So far, a total of nine biosafety level V laboratories have been built at the West Coast Base and divided into seven research teams. The team members are all top-level researchers in the world. The main research topics are genetic modification and biotechnology. This is the list of topics and projects that our Alpha team is researching. If you are interested, you can discuss with our boss and invest together..."
Dr. Cross smiled and handed over two photocopied documents.
Zhao Lihe and Daenerys glanced at Zuo Yu, and seeing him smile and nod, they reached out to take it and flipped through it.
As expected, the vast majority of the topics are related to Titans, and judging by the progress of their research, it is by no means something that can be achieved in a short period of time. It should be the result of many years of inheritance of the Monster World Monarch Organization.
In addition, Zhao Lihe even saw a project called "Mechagodzilla".
It seems that Zuo Yu has been to the Monster World and obtained technology and information about Mechagodzilla from Apex Corporation.
Zhao Lihe flipped through the documents in his hand thoughtfully, and suddenly saw the words "top secret" on the last page.
"You're bringing up a top-secret topic right now?"
Zhao Lihe raised his eyebrows, looked at Daenerys who had also discovered the top-secret topic, and then continued reading.
There were only two topics with a confidentiality level of "top secret" in the document. One of them was to study the effect of gray fog on the evolution of life, and the other was a little beyond the expectations of Zhao Lihe and Daenerys.
"Hulk serum?"
Zhao Lihe looked at Zuo Yu in surprise.
Zuo Yu smiled and said, "That's right. I bought all three Hulk serums that Ye Zixun sold to the Alliance and gave them to them for research. They have already achieved some results. Do you want to go and have a look?"
"certainly!"
Zhao Lihe nodded without hesitation and returned the document in his hand to Dr. Cross.
Daenerys was also interested, but she did not return the document. It was obvious that she was very interested in the subject and wanted to invest.
Dr. Cross's smile widened, and he quickly took a step forward to lead the way for the three people.
Soon, everyone arrived at a laboratory code-named Alpha. Dr. Cross led everyone to put on protective clothing, then took out the access card, and passed through triple security measures to enter the Alpha team's top-secret laboratory.
As soon as they entered the door, Zhao Lihe and others saw a scene similar to the villain company in the movie.
There are transparent culture dishes and metal-reinforced culture chambers everywhere, with many animals locked inside. The only animals that can be seen so far are mammals such as rabbits, mice and chimpanzees. No humans have been seen yet.
Zhao Lihe walked to the transparent glass cabin in the center and frowned at the golden mouse the size of a house cat inside.
"Is this the lab mouse that was injected with Hulk serum? Why is it golden?"
"That's because strictly speaking, what we injected was not the Hulk serum, but the Ghidorah-Hulk serum!"
Dr. Cross explained, and then led the puzzled crowd to the metal door at the deepest part of the laboratory. After going through the triple security measures of access card, dynamic password and iris recognition, they entered the secret room protected by layers of high-strength alloy and compressed metal.
In the center of this secret room, there is a huge metal cabin filled with thick unknown liquid. Floating in the liquid is a dark golden flesh ball with a diameter of about three meters and full of tubes.
Through the reinforced glass on the metal cabin, you can see the bulging blood vessels on the surface of the meat ball and the dark golden blood flowing in the blood vessels.
Looking at Zhao Lihe and Daenerys who were stunned, Dr. Cross explained: "Considering the scarcity and non-renewability of Hulk serum, we have drawn up five plans to try to multiply it before the experiment begins, and the 'KingHulk-2' in front of us is our most successful experimental subject..."
Zhao Lihe raised his eyebrows: "KingHulk, King Hulk?"
Zuo Yu smiled and nodded, "King Hulk is the name given to Experiment No. 2 by the Alpha Team. This name has no special meaning. It is simply a combination of King Ghidorah and Hulk..."
Dr. Cross nodded and said, "Boss is right. In fact, I prefer to call it 'Ghidorah-Hulk'. This name is more accurate, and King Hulk sounds like it is mainly based on Hulk, but there is nothing I can do about it. My subordinates like this name more~"
Dr. Cross shrugged his shoulders and said seriously, "The prototype of Subject No. 2 is the heart muscle tissue of King Ghidorah. We injected Hulk serum into it and induced its proliferation through various methods. It eventually became the current stable Subject No. 2. At the same time, the Hulk serum injected into its body produced a wonderful reaction with the original Ghidorah blood..."
"The King Hulk Serum used in the current experiments is extracted from the blood of Subject No. 2."
Zhao Lihe frowned upon hearing this and used his spiritual sense to transmit his voice: "I remember that King Ghidorah's body is full of neurons. Even the muscle tissue of his heart stores King Ghidorah's memories. Add to that the Hulk serum... To be honest, if you mess around like this, aren't you afraid that John Wick will turn into Pacific Rim?"
"Don't worry!"
Zuo Yu smiled and explained in the same voice transmission: "I have used the gray ball to modify the body memory of Subject No. 2. Now it is just a meat ball used to produce King Hulk serum. It has no memory, no life, and it is even more impossible to have a soul. Although it looks a little scary, it is actually a biological machine made by technology. It is not fundamentally different from the various production machines you are familiar with..."
After hearing Zuo Yu's explanation, Zhao Lihe was barely able to calm down.
Daenerys was not worried, but asked Dr. Cross questions with great interest.
"So, you can produce King Hulk Serum continuously, right?"
"Yes, your majesty."
"What about the experimental data of [King Hulk Serum]?"
"Please follow me."
Dr. Cross smiled and led the way for Daenerys.
Zuo Yu patted Zhao Lihe on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I'm going to activate the fixed portal first, you guys chat!"
Zhao Lihe nodded, turned around and followed Daenerys and Dr. Cross.
Everyone returned to the previous room again.
Meanwhile, the various petri dishes and glass chambers in the center of the room had been cleared out by the Alpha Team researchers.
Only five reinforced glass cabins with experimental subject labels were left on the floor to display the successful experimental subjects.
Dr. Cross stood in front of the glass cabin labeled 'R-7', holding a tablet computer that recorded experimental data and introduced: "So far, our research on King Hulk Serum has five main directions, namely body size proliferation, body self-healing, energy absorption, muscle strengthening and form transformation. The T-21 experiment is the most successful case in body size proliferation."
"Its normal size has increased from 14 centimeters to 286 centimeters, about 20 times its original size, and its weight has increased from 18 grams to 388.7 kilograms, about 21,594 times its original size..."
Dr. Cross introduced the experimental subjects in the reinforced glass chamber one by one.
Except for R-7, which showed obvious performance in body growth, the other four experimental subjects also performed well in their corresponding fields.
For example, the R-11 test subject has a self-healing ability comparable to the Hulk, and can even regenerate severed limbs. Zhao Lihe and Daenerys watched with their own eyes as its severed claws quickly grew and healed in just half a minute.
The R-14 experimental subject performed well in energy absorption. It could not only absorb the current in high-voltage wires, but also release the absorbed electrical energy.
The size of the R-16 experimental body did not change significantly, but its strength increased hundreds of times. Its physique was also greatly strengthened, and its sharp little claws could even leave shallow scratches on the surface of the metal cabin.
The R-23 experiment subject is more like a lab rat version of the Hulk. Normally, it is only the size of an ordinary lab rat, but once it is enraged, it can quickly grow larger.
"So, you developed five versions of the King Hulk serum?"
Daenerys asked with interest, "Is there a comprehensive version?"
Dr. Cross nodded solemnly and said, "Of course there is, but this dose of serum is beyond the tolerance of laboratory mice. So far, only one chimpanzee experiment has successfully absorbed it, and all other experiments have failed."
Daenerys looked around and asked, "Where is the experimental subject?"
Dr. Cross explained, "Because it tried to break through the metal cabin, it was locked in the isolation room. Its normal height reaches 3 meters. It has good physical self-healing and energy absorption capabilities. It can also transform when angry. Especially in the transformed state, its height reaches 5 meters. Its strength and physique have become extremely powerful. Even a metal cabin made of high-strength alloy steel is difficult to trap it."
"There's nothing we can do. We can only use the magic props given by the boss to contain and imprison him..."
As he spoke, Dr. Cross looked towards the counter at the door of the laboratory.
On it was a fist-sized crystal ball, inside which lay a sleeping gorilla.
Daenerys and Zhao Lihe suddenly realized that this so-called isolation room was actually the crystal ball!
Dr. Cross said seriously, "Due to the danger and aggressiveness shown by the T-3 test subject, we will not sell the comprehensive version for the time being. If your Majesties need serum, they can purchase the five specialized versions that are safer and risk-free. Although the serum effects of the specialized versions may not be as good, they are safe, stable and risk-free..."
Daenerys suddenly asked, "You haven't conducted any human experiments yet?"
"...Yes, it is true that I haven't had time to unfold it yet."
Dr. Cross nodded hesitantly, and then immediately added, "But we have already conducted experiments on chimpanzees without any failures. Moreover, I have submitted an application for human experiments to my boss, and I believe it will be approved soon. Your Majesties also know the identity of my boss, so the source of experimental subjects is not a problem for us."
"Even if there are moral concerns, we can use death row inmates in prison as a substitute..."
Danielle said without hesitation: "Then let's wait until the human experiment is successful!"
