“This is...?”

Numerous gazes matched with each other before all of them focused at the jade-green translucent crystal.

“You said that you’ve already succeeded in crystallizing the Green Giant Potion?” Manager Frank was panting excitedly when he heard this, no longer as calm as before.

“That’s right.” Feng Lin nodded. “This is the end product of me using the perfected Crystallization Medicine Creation Technique on the Green Giant Potion!”

“You’ve actually succeeded!” Frank couldn’t help but walk nearer. With a wave of his hand, the clone soldiers retreated, no longer having any intentions to capture Feng Lin.

What was their earlier excuse? Not a child of god? Was that important?

At this moment, Feng Lin had undoubtedly proved his talent. Transforming into a child of god was merely a process through the divine blood ritual. How could these two matters be compared at all?

Seeing how excited Frank looked, Matsushita Onijin knew that things were getting extremely dire for him.

He didn’t expect Feng Lin to have such a trump card up his sleeve.

Earlier, he had intentionally fawned on Feng Lin to get into his good books. He initially thought that Feng Lin had trusted him completely. He didn’t expect Feng Lin to hide something like this.

How ruthless!

Matsushita Onijin glared at Feng Lin with hatred. He gritted his teeth as a chill involuntarily rose in his heart.

Although this brat was young, he was extremely scheming.

Now, this was already the last name to be called out. It was either he died or Feng Lin died!

But could he really win against him?

A great sense of unease arose in Matsushita Onijin’s heart. For the sake of his life, he wasn’t willing to sit here and just wait for death. He leaped out again and pointed at Feng Lin, “For this Green Giant Potion, Feng Lin clearly already succeeded with his experiments before this, or it would be impossible for him to take it out so quickly. Why was he intentionally hiding this before? He clearly is harboring unfathomable motives in his heart! Manager Frank, Team Leader Aike, you guys absolutely must not believe him!”

One couldn’t help but say that he had pinpointed the exact crucial point.

Earlier, everyone felt that the crystallization technique had failed, yet Feng Lin actually took out a perfected product to protect his life? Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence?

This naturally caused many people to have doubts in their hearts.

“Manager, you have to consider carefully!” Aike spoke.

Frank hesitated. He stared at Feng Lin, “Feng Lin, seems like you owe us an explanation.”

His eyes were cold. If Feng Lin couldn’t give a reasonable explanation, he would surely be in for it.

However, since Feng Lin dared to take out the crystallized Green Giant Potion at this moment, he naturally had already considered this.

“I didn’t take this out earlier because the crystallization technique isn’t matured yet. I took medicinal ingredients home to research and experiment on them every day. I only succeeded a single time after hundreds of tries. This was why I was still focused on perfecting the technique, I wanted to wait for it to be fully matured before I report this up.”

Although this reason sounded a little forced, it did have a few hints of credibility.

Frank’s tense expression also relaxed.

Feng Lin continued, “Everyone here can be my witness that I diligently did my research and experiments every day.”

All the researchers fell silent, they naturally could refute it, but the truth would definitely already been captured by the monitoring equipment in the underground laboratory. It was useless even if they wanted to lie.

However, it was naturally impossible that they would speak out on behalf of Feng Lin. In the end, they could only choose to remain silent.

But remaining silent was also a type of silent admission!

Frank was very clear on this point.

He walked toward Feng Lin and took the jade-green crystal as he surveyed it. He didn’t believe this completely. “As for the actual effect, we would only know after we tested it.”

“That’s only natural.” Feng Lin didn’t try to explain anything. He acted like he was filled with immense confidence.

Seeing how confident Feng Lin was, Frank couldn’t help but regard Feng Lin even more highly. Yet, he didn’t know that the true source of Feng Lin’s confidence was his strength and not this jade-green crystal.

In truth, he might have succeeded in crystallizing the Green Giant Potion, but he hadn’t tested it out yet.

If this jade-green crystal was effective, everything would naturally be great. He would continue with his pretense and wait for the opportunity to enter the mythological ruins of the Furnace Immortal Sect.

If the crystal wasn’t effective, he would directly display his strength and kill his way out of here.

“Consume it!” Frank placed the crystal into one of the clone soldier’s hands as he commanded.

The clone soldier didn’t say anything in response and immediately ate it.

With a rumbling sound, he swallowed the jade-green crystal into his stomach.

At the next instant, the clone soldier was clearly in an unusual condition. At his stomach area, a jade-green energy that could be seen by the naked eye rapidly spread throughout his entire body. His skin turned translucent and everyone could see the movement of the jade-green energy within.

Clones didn’t really have high intelligence, but they did have some life instincts. Since the clone soldier was now in pain, he began to scream loudly. His muscles were trembling as that jade-green energy fully coated him completely, dyeing him green inside-out.

However, this wasn’t as simple as just a change in skin color.

Ka, ka, ka!

The sounds of creaking bones could be heard. The clone soldier swiftly expanded, growing taller and wider in girth. He reached a height that would cause people who looked at it to be dumbfounded.

A few moments later, the clone soldier had transformed into a giant with greenish copper skin that was above three meters in height. He had a ferocious aura, causing one’s heart to tremble if they looked at it. This was because it gave off the feeling that one was not looking at a clone human but a terrifying beast instead.

The eyes of the green giant were filled with a bloody light, exuding violence as he panted heavily.

Frank had a look of wild joy on his face. He took out a ray gun and shot it at the green giant.

The green giant didn’t evade it. He simply stood at his original location. When the light rays blasted into him, the energy of the light ray was actually absorbed by the green giant’s skin. Rumbling sounds rang out from within the green giant’s body as he grew a little larger and more sturdy.

Feng Lin coldly watched from the side. He discovered that this ability of the Green Giant was somewhat similar to his Stone Monkey Gene’s abilities.

The Stone Monkey Gene could isolate energy effects, while this green giant was actually able to absorb the radiation from the light ray to strengthen himself. As to what the exact ability was, Feng Lin could only wonder.

Also, although the Green Giant Gene might be a transcendent gene, it was forcibly awakened by the means of a genetic potion and would surely be inferior. The vitality stat of the Green Giant wouldn’t be high and wouldn’t surpass him by too much.

Feng Lin set his heart at ease. Even if Frank controlled this green giant to attack him, he would also be able to deal with it.

Also, Feng Lin even knew that there was a flaw in the green giant, and he would be able to subdue the green giant through this flaw. If Frank suddenly had malicious intentions, he would definitely be in for a great shock.

“Feng Lin, well done! With you around, our Giant Pharmaceutical Company would definitely be able to make a comeback. Let’s leave together!” Frank patted Feng Lin on his shoulder and smiled. His earlier cold attitude had completely vanished as his recognition of Feng Lin grew even higher.

The success of the crystallization technique on the Green Giant Potion became the last straw that crushed the camel’s back. The truth was before everyone’s eyes. The crystallization technique was perfected!

A truly capable person would always cause others to look at them differently.

Feng Lin smiled and nodded.

The two of them exchanged glances and laughed, as though all the unhappiness earlier was just a dream.

Frank swept his gaze over, silently indicating the clone soldiers to move toward Matsushita Onijin.

“He is lying to you!” Matsushita screamed with reluctance when he saw this scene. He struggled with all his might and hurriedly spoke, “Maybe, he is the spy of the Mars Revolutionary Army. Why would the Mars Revolutionary Army know so many of our secrets? During these days, there’s only a person who recently joined us!”

He barked like a mad dog and accidentally managed to guess the truth.

Feng Lin, who had been extremely calm since the start, couldn’t help but feel his heart trembling when he heard that.

But sadly, Frank already couldn’t be bothered to listen to Matsushita anymore. He waved his hand, and the clone soldiers proceeded to grab Matsushita and tossed him right into the lava. In just a few short moments, his screams faded to silence as he was burned to a crisp. Not even his bones were left.

The other researchers didn’t even dare to breathe heavily. They felt the sorrow of the hunting hounds being killed after all the hares were hunted; however, they felt more relief from surviving this incident.

“Feng Lin, don’t mind him. He’s only barking nonsense.” Frank smiled and consoled Feng Lin. “Let’s go, I’ll bring you to undergo the divine blood ritual now!”

“Shouldn’t we leave first?” Feng Lin exclaimed in surprise.

Frank’s next words caused Feng Lin’s heart to sink all the way down to the bottom. “Don’t worry, we still have time! Before we leave, we still have some things we need to settle and some things we want to bring away. We can conveniently help you undergo the divine blood ritual before we leave.”

Feng Lin wanted to reject but when he noticed the sinister coldness in Frank’s eyes, he didn’t say anything.

“Sure.” Feng Lin pretended to be extremely joyful. None of the feelings in his heart showed on his face.

It seemed like the words spoken by Matsushita before his death wasn’t completely useless. Frank still didn’t completely believe in him. He wanted a last layer of insurance.

As long as he transformed into a child of god, becoming someone of the White Race, he would be on the same boat as them. At that time, they would naturally no longer need to worry about anything.

“Follow me!” Frank spoke. He then opened up the metallic tunnel that led deep inside the core.

The group of them followed after Frank.

The lava here was isolated outside. Although the atmosphere was very hot, it wasn’t to an unbearable extent yet.

Very soon, everyone reached the last level. The door silently opened. This secret space was actually in the shape of a gigantic sphere. It was unknown from what materials were the surrounding walls constructed. It was air-tight and completely isolated the lava outside.

In the middle of the space, there was a large class cabin. Inside, a silver-colored giant over five meters tall could be seen. The silver giant’s muscles rippled with explosive power, and they were extremely taut. His skin was like marble, and he radiated a sense of imposingness. This silver giant was like a heavenly god that had descended to the mortal world. One would feel stifled the moment they moved nearer to it.

This was a suppression due to the difference in vitality.

Feng Lin had a look of shock on his face. His vitality stats had already reached 45.8, yet he still felt an extremely strong sense of threat from this silver giant. How high was the vitality stat of the giant exactly?

An elite cultivator?

Frank stared at Feng Lin’s shocked look with satisfaction as a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

“Feng Lin, don’t be startled. What you are seeing now is the greatest secret of our company. And that is...”

“God Creation Project!”
