454: Chapter 454 Special Synthetic Agents

With Yirta setting the tone, the atmosphere among the group warmed up, and Ban Laite was no longer as aloof as before.

However, in Liuguang City, which was filled with scientific geniuses, one ultimately had to rely on personal talent to make a name for oneself.

If one lacked ability, even if Ban Laite wanted to help, he couldn't, and if something went wrong, it would implicate him as well.

Fortunately, Korda did not disappoint Nie Ning and the others.

Although Korda was slightly nervous, he had acquired a significant amount of scientific knowledge during this time, so after a series of tests, he even earned Ban Laite's praise.

In particular, the new second-generation nether spirit gold that Korda tinkered with possessed even stronger soul power adaptability than the first generation.

At this standard, entering the Liuguang City Research Institute would be no problem.

With this, Korda's matters had finally come to a close, and all that remained was to enter the research institute through Ban Laite.

Although he wouldn't be joining directly, it would save a lot of trouble and steps.

After bidding farewell to Ban Laite, Nie Ning took advantage of the remaining time to tour the city with Amivika and the others over the next two days.

With Ban Laite's help, Korda also successfully joined the No. 3 Research Institute.

This speed was faster than Nie Ning had anticipated.

If they had followed the standard professional procedures, it would have been impossible to complete the paperwork in less than ten days to half a month.

The time for parting always seemed so brief.

Although he was somewhat reluctant to leave, Nie Ning knew it was time for him to go.

There was no help for it; Eugene was afraid he would run off and had even sent a voice transmission, so even if he wanted to stay and play for a few more days, he couldn't.

It was just a pity for Korda; his scientific talent was absolutely top-notch, yet he could only remain in this place.

Although he wanted to take Korda along to help him research special alloy materials, his situation on this trip was truly precarious, and in the future, even Xiao Guang and Qian Ning might be disbanded; if someone as weak as Korda went along, he would truly become cannon fodder.

As for Amivika...

The Super Causality Law Weapon might just give him an unexpected surprise.

Perhaps it would be able to deal with the potential danger brought by the deity Nales when a disaster like the one at Yishi Mansion arrived.

At the gates of Liuguang City.

Nie Ning gave Korda a hug and then shoved a small test tube injection into Korda's hand.

"This thing might help you, or it might be completely useless. Whether you use it or not is up to you."

Korda was stunned for a moment. He didn't know what the item Nie Ning had given him was, but he could tell it must be very precious.

In his entire life, Nie Ning was one of the only two people who had ever shown him kindness.

"Such a precious thing..."

Korda was somewhat moved and wanted to return the item to Nie Ning, as Nie Ning had already helped him enough.

Nie Ning pressed down on Korda's hand, which was holding the injection, a solemn expression on his face.

"This is something only you can use. Do not tell anyone else, or there might be unpredictable consequences."

In reality, the contents of the injection were one of his test samples.

It was a bloodline potion he had remade after obtaining Korda's genes and assimilating them using Supernatural Adaptability.

He had originally intended to test how this gene potion would react in Korda.

Because after the incident with Qian Ning's awakening, according to his own hypothesis, Supernatural Adaptability would improve the gene fragments of others, thereby carrying out a special kind of optimization.

But what would happen if this gene were injected back into the person's own body?

It was just a pity that he didn't have time to stay any longer, so naturally, he couldn't observe Korda's subsequent changes.

It was also out of a desire not to let it go to waste that he had decided on the spur of the moment to give it to Korda. As for whether it would be good or bad, that would depend on Korda's fate.

And as a researcher at the Liuguang City Research Institute, even if the potion really did cause problems, at least Korda shouldn't be in any danger.

After a moment of silence, Korda gripped the injection tightly and solemnly spat out two words: "Thank you."

Nie Ning smiled slightly and patted Korda's shoulder heavily: "I won't say any more unnecessary words. Take care of yourself; I hope that one day I will see you become world-renowned."

"I will definitely work hard!"

Korda nodded vigorously.

Even if only to repay Nie Ning, he would strive in that direction!

Nie Ning and the others did not stay for long. After the group exchanged some parting words, they flew off in the direction of Eugene.

No. 3 Research Institute.

Staff dormitory.

Korda sat on his clean, tidy bed, staring blankly at the injection in his hand.

Nie Ning's departure made him feel very unaccustomed, as if he had lost a good friend he could talk to.

And without Nie Ning as his support, everything from here on out would have to rely on himself.

When he came to his senses, Korda's eyes became firm.

"I will definitely be able to become world-renowned!"

As the words fell, Korda plunged the injection into his arm.

But not long after, Korda began to exhibit an abnormal reaction.

His eyes became bloodshot, and his skin turned bright red.

Following that, signs of alienation began to appear on his face; many white hairs grew out, and his fingers fused together, turning into arthropod limbs similar to spider spears.

If Nie Ning were here, he would surely be able to tell that this was a sign of a bloodline being activated, as well as the spider-type genes that had once been almost completely excised from Korda.

Although it was very painful, Korda gritted his teeth and endured it.

He did not resent Nie Ning, because he knew that Nie Ning would not do anything to harm him.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to help him enter the Liuguang City Research Institute, much less given him such a gift at the time of parting.

As time slowly passed, after the brief physical mutation, the alienated state on his body surface gradually faded away.

At the same time, Korda felt his thinking was incredibly clear, and even the various elements around him became clearly visible.

Furthermore, the cultivation speed of his Meditation Technique had increased significantly.

Korda slowly opened his eyes and looked at his hands in disbelief; a diamond-shaped metal block was floating in the palm of his hand.

Even if his mind were slow to react, he would have noticed the clue in this.

His aptitude had improved!

With just a single injection, his aptitude had improved by at least three times!

What a terrifying improvement; it was impossible to imagine how precious a treasure could achieve this level.

The previous Nine-Pattern Cloud Dragon Fruit had allowed him to gain cultivation aptitude, and such a treasure was already worth a fortune.

Now, his aptitude had reached nearly a high-grade level; even if he specialized in the path of a wizard, it would allow him to go much further.

Yet, Nie Ning had actually taken such a precious item and given it to him to use!

Korda clenched his fists involuntarily: "Definitely! Definitely! I will definitely not let you down!"

If Korda had only wanted to strive to become world-renowned before, now he must reach that level.

Only then could he live up to Nie Ning's help and not fail the expectations Nie Ning had for him!
