Chapter 1097 The Laboratory
Sassacus was the name of this wild man. His father had passed away from illness in his early years,
and his mother had also died due to complications during childbirth. Left all alone, he was adopted by
Mia.Due to some innate deficiencies, his intelligence is a bit behind, and now he only has the intellect
of a child of a few years old. However, his martial arts talent was incredibly explosive. At just around 24
or 25 years old, he had already reached the supreme peak level of Flame Decay.” Carolyn had faced
him before, and although he felt that he might be stronger in terms of attributes, it didn’t necessarily
mean that she could defeat Sassacus. They had been walking for over a day, and it would probably
take them about half a day more to reach the City of Phoenix. Most people in the group were skilled in
martial arts, so their traveling speed was quite fast. “Saintess… Carolyn!” Mia said, struggling a bit with
the pronunciation. She still instinctively called her Carolyn Saintess, but Carolyn always felt that the
name sounded awkward. So, she asked everyone to simply call her Carolyn. However, these people
also felt somewhat uncomfortable when they changed their ways. Mia asked, “Carolyn, is there really
someone who possesses the Dragon Bone?” “Mmm!” Carolyn said, “We all came from our hometown
together, and he’s super awesome! But… I’ve reached the Eternal Level of Flame Decay now, so I can
show off to him when I go back!” These days, they’ve been hurrying on their journey, unaware of
everything happening outside. The group chatted and laughed as they made their way towards the City
of Phoenix! The news continues to sweep across the entire Havotune. Above the Nether Domain, an
aircraft floated above the sea. At this moment, two figures emerged from it. Alcoholic, carrying a wine
jug, stepped onto the aircraft and said calmly, “To the City of Phoenix!” He had already received the
news that the CEO Soulreaper Sect and the Blood Tribe were planning to attack the City of Phoenix!
Outside, everything had nothing to do with Gerald. At this moment, they were walking down, one level
after another. “We’ve made it!” At this moment, Anabel exclaimed, “We’ve successfully reached the
ninety-ninth floor from the top down. Let’s take a look at the map!” “Triston, Kristian, go hang lights all
around the area!” Anabel said. Gerald took the initiative to hang up lamps all around them. In no time,
their immediate vicinity was brightly lit. Surrounding them were numerous passageways, remarkably
well-preserved. On both sides of these passageways, countless rooms could be found. The majority of
these rooms had been opened, while a small portion remained tightly shut. The headquarters of the
Promise Group is like a massive treasure trove, .controlled by the Eight Forces. It all comes down to
who has better luck, obtains more keys, unlocks more areas, and acquires more valuable items. After
the surroundings were illuminated, Gerald and the others gathered around the map for a long time.
Then, Hector’s face lit up with joy and he said, “The structure nearby is quite similar to what’s on the
map. We must be on the right floor.” Gerald and the others also let out a slight sigh of relief! Ingenious
Needles is located on the ninety-ninth floor counting from the bottom, then finding the subsequent
floors without directions would be quite troublesome. Firstly, it would be extremely dangerous, and
secondly, it would take a long time to search for them! “Let’s go!” Gerald said. Anabel found some
records of the ninety-nine levels they had developed, detailing the dangerous areas and the locations
of various mechanisms. The information was incredibly thorough. Relying on this, Gerald and his
companions indeed managed to avoid quite a bit of trouble. Two hours later, they arrived in front of a
tightly closed door. What astonished Gerald was that, despite the passage of thousands of years, the
door remained spotless, making him wonder what material it was made of. In fact, many of the
technologies and materials in this world were difficult for Gerald to comprehend. Hector’s face lit up
with excitement. He knew he wasn’t a top-tier genius like Gerald and Carolyn. He was well aware that
his chances of breaking through the eternal level of Flame Decay were incredibly slim! . In the vast
expanse of Havotune, amidst the countless lives and innumerable humans, only a few dozen people
stand at this level. Hector might be among those with better natural talent, but he felt that once he
reached the supreme peak level of Flame Decay, he might just collapse. He was different from Gerald
and the others; he was already over a hundred years old, just appearing younger than his age.
Sometimes, he was amazed himself. The population of Earth wasn’t that large, but when it came to
martial arts talent, it seemed like they were truly a cut above the people of Havotune! He couldn’t figure
out what was going on! In any case, Ingenious Needles is his opportunity to reach the eternal level of
Flame Decay, and only then will he stand at the pinnacle of this world. With a slight tremble, he took out
three keys. After trying for a while, the door in front of him… opened! An extremely eerie atmosphere
emanated from the doorway. Even though Gerald possessed an ice attribute, he couldn’t help but
shudder involuntarily! “It’s so chilly!” Triston exhaled. “These places haven’t been opened for thousands
of years; let’s let some fresh air in first!” Anabel reminded them. Gerald and the others nodded in
agreement. After waiting outside for a while, he cautiously picked up the lamp and ventured inside. The
others followed suit and entered the room without much hesitation. They hung lamps around the room,
which was quite enormous, spanning a few thousand square feet. Various instruments were placed
inside, and the surrounding walls were lined with shelves, displaying a wide array of creatively
designed bottles. “I think this might be a huge laboratory!” Anabel exclaimed excitedly. Kristian nodded
in agreement, saying, “If we can move these things out, it would be a huge gain! But we’ll have to wait
until later. We have too few people right now.” “Let’s find Ingenious Needles first! Gerald said,
“Everyone, spread out and search in all directions!” “All right!” The group spread out within the room, all
the while searching for places to hang energy stone lamps. As they did so, the entire room gradually
became brightly . lit. These instruments inside have been around for thousands of years, and due to
their age and lack of maintenance, it’s likely that most of them no longer function. Kristian and the
others were able to SAMU recognize some of the instruments, but Gerald and the rest of the people
from Earth had no understanding of these at all. “These shelves seem to be filled with research Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
materials on medicinal herbs,” Valery excitedly said as she approached a wall lined with shelves. As a
doctor, these things hold a much greater appeal to her than your Ingenious Needles. “What are these
things!” At this moment, on the other side, Triston looked at the items displayed on the wall and said,
“These… seem to be some virus samples. Damn, what on earth is Promise Group studying all day
long!” “Try not to touch those things as much as possible,” Gerald hurriedly reminded. The seven
people continued their search throughout the laboratory, which seemed to be primarily focused on
researching viruses and medicinal materials! Gerald walked up to a table, which was covered with a
clutter of papers. Despite the mess, the rest of the research lab was relatively clean, and there was no
dust on the documents. “Huh!” Gerald picked up one of the notebooks and, upon opening it,
