“Pfft…”
Assad Kenneth couldn’t control himself and spat out a mouthful of water.
He genuinely did not expect that Lokan would spread rumors about Link
Grande once, and then do it again.
And this time, it was even more absurd and bizarre.
He turned his head and looked at the towering Lokan, asking bewilderedly,
“What did he do to provoke you? Why are you messing with him this much?”
Lokan without lifting his head, continued typing into the computer, ordering others to spread rumors about Link Grande. He said in an indifferent tone: “He didn’t provoke me. It’s just that his Potion Study talent is too good, something I can’t transplant, so I find him distasteful.
“But…”
Assad thought about how much Wizard Palo and the Serene Wizard valued
Link, and wanted to reason with Lokan.
After all, they were all on the same team, it was unnecessary to create such trouble just because of jealousy, right?
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, Assad swallowed his words back.
Lokan was a peculiar individual with a strange temper. Apart from the Serene
Wizard, he would not listen to anyone else’s advice.
Even Wizard Palo could only command him to do things, but could not ask him
to change his temperament or his offensive mannerisms.
Forget it, he decided, there was no point in advising him.
He would never do anything that gave him no advantage.
Just let it be.
Assad Kenneth suddenly felt quite sluggish. He got up and left, distancing himself from the Lokan Wizard.
He was afraid that he would be targeted for such a farce one day.
Link thought the public opinion, portraying him as a crazed killer, was boring.
It felt as though someone was holding a grudge, intending to deliberately distort his image to vent their anger.
It did not seem like they were using public opinion to attack him.
Otherwise, the intensity would not be so gentle, only describing him as a mass murderer, a maniac.
Killing, big deal.
Which wizard didn’t kill?
Which wizard killed only a few people?
They should have added something more terrifying, such as him drinking blood, being a cannibalistic demon, that would make it more sensational.
That would make it sound more real.
The current discourse was just mild dribble, like a light drizzle.
Link filtered out those strange rumors and began the first task after getting his new position.
Following the instructions of the old man Morpheus, he refined a batch of antidotes, a total of three hundred.
This quantity shocked Link.
Just how many female spies, equivalent to the KGB swallows of his previous
life, did Viranny nurture?
How could they have corrupted so many people?
Wasn’t Wizard Palo’s corps infiltrated like a sieve?
Realizing the confusion in Link’s eyes, old man Morpheus explained: -People who have been affected definitely exceed the known numbers. Without investigation, we’ll let those in key positions, whether infected or not, have a dose first. After all, there’s no harmful side effect to your potion.”
Link nodded, indicating that he understood.
Better to be safe than sorry, prevention was important.
He didn’t bother to delve deep into this issue, just satisfying his curiosity was enough.
After delivering the antidote, Link returned to his lab, put on his protective gear, and entered the dissection room.
A mutated fairy corpse lay on the cold dissection table, waiting for his arrival.
The fairies were humanoid creatures, tall in stature; most had green hair, messed up like a bird’s nest, sharp features, especially their noses and ears, were all pointed.
It was greatly different from the image of fairies he had seen in novels and movies in his previous life.
The skin was tough, with scales, and had strong physical defense.
Their feet were like duck webs, they were good at climbing and diving.
Fairies were born with special abilities, either physically enhanced, mind-controlling, or spell-like abilities.
Each tribe had different individuals, abilities, and strengths.
The mutated corpse Link received was originally a Rainforest Fairy.
The Innate Special Power was physical enhancement, specifically towards neural reactions – agility.
It had extremely fast movement speed, attack speed, flexible reactions, and sharp intuition.
With sharp daggers and long-range bows and arrows as weapons, the main attack methods were stealth assassinations and long-range sniper attacks.
After contracting the disease, the Rainforest Fairy underwent many physical changes.
They lost their sanity, their teeth were sharpened to resemble wolf teeth, their skin began to bone, fat was depleted, their body slender, and their nails grew… From being an assassin and archer, it had transformed into a frontline storm trooper.
At first glance, Link found that the symptoms and changes seemed similar to zombie transformations.
Choosing a suitable dissecting knife, Link began the autopsy, not missing any detail.
There were three living Rainforest Fairies kept for comparison in another
room.
For three consecutive days, Link had not left the dissection room, he had been conducting dissections day and night.
Hunger?
Nonexistent.
Exhaustion?
Just a little rest, then he would carry on.
From the skin to the fascia, from fat to muscle, from blood vessels to nerves, from limbs to trunks, from the skeleton to the organs, from the peripheral nervous system to the central nervous system, from the spinal cord to the brain…
The more sections he dissected, the more abnormalities he discovered, the more excited Link got, the more carefully he dissected.
Only when he utterly dissected the mutated corpse, not leaving a single part, not missing any abnormalities, did Link finally stop.
Overall, Link’s initial judgment was correct, the mutation of the Rainforest Fairy was indeed in the direction of a zombie.
A rather peculiar point was that the Rainforest Fairy’s Innate Special Power had not been lost, but had in fact been enhanced.
Link was still conducting tests, trying to find the mechanism of the Special Ability Enhancement..
