Chapter 1157
[ 569 words ]
Watching the girl smile like a cunning little fox, Shanley felt a little uneasy.
The next day.
Juniper led Dr. Nocturne and the medical elites from Subterra Vanguard, marching grandly into Sanctum Holdings.
Corvus was an extremely paranoid man.
He didn’t immediately let them into the core lab, but settled them in the adjacent room.
“Specter, you won’t mind, will you?” Corvus asked in a profound tone, rolling his prayer beads.
“Whatever.” Juniper shrugged, raising an eyebrow with a light laugh. “I’m not the one desperate to finish the research within a year.”
Corvus’s aged eyes narrowed deeply.
Those words were certainly unpleasant to hear.
Why couldn’t Specter just be a mute?!
“Since you’re so worried, how about we show you what Subterra Vanguard is capable of?”
“Sure.” Juniper stood up, shoved her hands in her pockets, and said casually, “Let’s show the boss a trick or two.”
Half an hour later.
In the underground lab of Sanctum Holdings.
The ‘researchers’ from Subterra Vanguard were split up: one group handled computer data, while the other re-edited the extracted ‘genetic tissue.’
Sanctum Holdings’ researchers had spent a massive amount of time on this step without figuring it out.
Corvus stood nearby with his researchers, watching closely.
He wanted to see if Subterra Vanguard’s people really had actual skills.
“Where is Dr. Sommers?”
Juniper paced a circle, pretending to ask casually. “I heard she solved a problem in
a few hours that Sanctum Holdings couldn’t crack for years.”
“I assume there’s no one in all of Sanctum Holdings who understands genetic modification better than her.”
Ignoring Corvus’s ugly expression, Juniper continued.
“Bring Dr. Sommers here,” Corvus ordered.
Although he was the lead on this research, he couldn’t actually intervene in the real scientific work.
In the underground room.
Theia Sommers was sitting in her room in a daze.
“Dr. Sommers, the boss requested your presence,” a subordinate said respectfully.
“Not going!” Dr. Sommers remained expressionless, completely ignoring the man’s words.
“The boss says Specter brought medical elites from Subterra Vanguard and wants you to…”
“Let’s go.” Hearing the name ‘Specter,’ Theia stood up abruptly.
As she left the room, she specifically straightened her clothes.
“?” The subordinate looked baffled but quickly hurried to keep up.
When Theia arrived at the lab.
Subterra Vanguard’s two teams were deep into their research analysis.
Whether it was the data or their operational techniques, everything was flawless, clearly far superior to Corvus’s people.
“Theia, come take a look.” Corvus didn’t understand why she had suddenly changed her tune.
But as long as she was willing to start the experiment, the reasons didn’t matter. My darling Seven.
Seeing the youngest daughter she’d been dreaming about day and night, Theia suppressed the joy welling up in her heart and slowly walked forward.
“Dr. Sommers, we meet again.”
Juniper turned her head, her gaze
landing on Theia’s face as she
smiled Look at the soldiers I’ve tramed. Compared to the people
from the Albia Country institute back then, how do they measure up?”
“They’re doing very well.” Theia walked up beside Juniper, feigning an expressionless face “How much did boss Thorne pay to gather aller this talent?”
Hearing Theia’s words, Corvus froze slightly, eyeing her with deep meaning.
Was it an illusion?
He actually felt Theia was unusually docile today.
And her attitude wasn’t nearly as awful!
“Theia, Specter is talking to you.”
Seeing that Theia wasn’t engaging with Juniper, Corvus reminded her in a low voice,
“Didn’t you two just meet last time?”
“I’ve heard Corvus mention that the Subterra Vanguard organization is quite formidable.”
Theia turned her head, openly
meeting Juniper’s gaze, and
Vol
sneered Since agreed to Specter’s deal will deliver. I hope you won’t break your oath either.”
