Chapter 1721 - 1721 Him Again
1721 Him Again
“Why can I see this guy there?”
Although that figure only flashed past, Chu Nan still recognized it immediately.
It was actually Feng Mingxi!
After the accident, Chu Nan thought about it and felt that there was really nothing strange about this.
The last time he saw Feng Mingxi, it was when he used that strange cultivation method to transform into an earth-shattering thick layer of flesh and devour an entire ferocious beast planet. Clearly, he had cultivated this cultivation method extremely deeply. He might have already become one of the top candidates for the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance to study in this aspect.
The location of this research institute was so strange. Coupled with the scenes Chu Nan and Angie Prairie had seen in the abnormal space in the teleportation door, it was natural and logical for it to be related to Feng Mingxi.
The last time he saw Feng Mingxi was nearly three years ago. Although Chu Nan did not believe in probing, he could clearly sense that the current Feng Mingxi was much stronger than in the past three years. At the very least, his body no longer felt weak or insufficient.
“So what’s this guy doing here?”
With a thought, Chu Nan chased in the direction where Feng Mingxi had disappeared.
Originally, Chu Nan was already very careful. Now that he saw Feng Mingxi, he was even more careful. He activated the Hidden Dragon Reconnaissance Technique and accurately sensed all the details of his surroundings, accurately adjusting and fusing his various information into the environment around him. It was already similar to true invisibility.
Less than 20 meters in the direction where Feng Mingxi had disappeared, he heard someone talking ahead.
He hurriedly approached the direction of the voice and discovered that it was coming from a sealed room. The place where the voice came from was like an exhaust vent outside this room.
Chu Nan quietly climbed to the vicinity of the exhaust vent and looked in through a gap. He discovered that the room was very wide. The huge room was filled with rows of nutrition troughs. Every nutrition trough was filled with a human body. From its appearance and some signs, it should still be alive.
There were men and women in these people’s bodies, and all of them were naked. They were soaked in a strange-colored nutrient solution. From time to time, some strange cell tissue changes that looked like lesions would appear on their bodies.
Chu Nan only glanced at it and could confirm that these guys should have been injected with a special genetic virus because the change in the tissue of the lesion cells on their bodies was almost identical to the meatball change Chu Nan had sent out from the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance a few years ago.
“Could it be that this place is the base where the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance nurtured those meatballs?”
Chu Nan shifted his gaze to the two people in the room in confusion.
One of them was Feng Mingxi, and the other was wearing a white robe. He looked like a researcher.
The two of them were having an intense conversation. From time to time, some familiar terms that Chu Nan could not understand sounded like they were discussing something related to genetic engineering.
Clearly, that researcher was more proficient in this aspect, so most of the time, he was talking and Feng Mingxi was listening.
However, the topic between them quickly turned to cultivation methods. In this aspect, it was obvious that Feng Mingxi knew and was more proficient. He began to take the initiative in the discussion.
Moreover, it was clearly easier for Chu Nan to understand this topic.
From the meaning Feng Mingxi expressed, he seemed to be telling the researcher opposite him that the use of a cultivation method he had recently developed was more suitable for their research. In order to prove his theory, Feng Mingxi even demonstrated the use of cultivation methods a few times.
From the blood-red mist that surged out of his body and the fluctuation of spatial energy, it was the cultivation method used by the people Chu Nan had just seen in the abnormal space in the teleportation door with Angie Prairie. It was also the same as the cultivation method he had used when he first saw Feng Mingxi a few years ago, but it was clearly much stronger to use in depth.
That researcher did not seem to agree with Feng Mingxi’s opinion and proposed a few retorts. However, he was naturally inferior to Feng Mingxi in terms of cultivation methods. In the end, he was still convinced by Feng Mingxi and agreed to cooperate with him for a few experiments.
Due to the fact that Chu Nan was not proficient in the knowledge of life genetic engineering, the two of them could only understand things related to cultivation methods in their discussion. However, the two of them mainly discussed research knowledge, so Chu Nan did not understand much.
Of course, this did not matter. Chu Nan had a sufficiently powerful brain and completely memorized their conversation. He only needed to return and tell Angie Prairie that she would definitely understand.
Feng Mingxi and the researcher’s discussion lasted for about half an hour. In the end, it ended with the researcher agreeing with Feng Mingxi.
After the discussion, Feng Mingxi ran to the rows of nutrition troughs and carefully observed them for a while before choosing three of them.
Then, that researcher operated it and let the three of them out. Next, blood clouds filled Feng Mingxi’s body and he exerted cultivation methods on the three of them. The three of them seemed to have been infected and also produced blood clouds. Soon, they woke up.
Feeling the aura coming from the three of them, Chu Nan felt strange.
It was one thing for the energy fluctuation emitted by the three of them to be a little strange, but the life force fluctuation they could sense in their bodies was also very strange. They felt that… it was as if they were not living people. Instead, they were closer to the feeling that ferocious beasts gave Chu Nan.
“Could it be that these guys have been implanted with the Ferocious Beast Gene?”
Chu Nan could not understand what they were doing and could only continue to quietly observe.
After the three of them recovered, the researcher from before instructed the three of them. It was probably something to take note of before leaving with them.
Feng Mingxi continued to look at the nutrition troughs in the room one by one. From time to time, he would reach out and seep blood qi into the nutrition troughs, as if he was investigating something.
After checking it, Feng Mingxi left the room. Chu Nan thought for a moment and followed.
After leaving the room, Feng Mingxi did not go anywhere else. Instead, he directly left the building complex and arrived beside the lake outside.
At this moment, it was late at night, but there were many ferocious beasts surrounding the shore of the large lake. All of them had powerful auras, but not all of them had the aura of equivalent S-rank ferocious beasts.
After those ferocious beasts saw Feng Mingxi, they did not dodge or attack. Some even took the initiative to approach and do something intimate with him like pets.
Seeing this scene, the first thing Chu Nan thought of was the situation when he and everyone, including Prince Lekas, barged into the planet where Pope Lockmarton was in the Endless Abyss a few years ago.
The young genius martial artists who had disappeared to participate in the Garden Hunting Assembly at that time were also like this. They were all intimate with the ferocious beasts and treated them like pets. Only Glurik was pretending.
However, the reason why those young martial artists displayed this form at that time was mainly because they were affected by some genetic virus implanted in their bodies. Now, Feng Mingxi did not seem to be affected at all. Instead, those ferocious beasts came to be intimate with him.
Chu Nan had heard that some ferocious beasts might feel close to humans with auras similar to his, but Feng Mingxi’s aura was normal and he could not sense an aura equivalent to ferocious beasts from the three of them. Therefore, his current appearance was a little strange.
