Chapter 203: 203

Chapter 203 I Can’t Hold Myself Back Any Longer

The safety lock lasted eight hours. Now, there were only two hours left. No matter what, Li Kaihao felt he must go check on them. First, due to Lei Zhongyuan’s plea and the fact that Xiang Ning was indeed a prodigy. The matter required careful handling. 

Second, investigations showed that Alia was a refugee who had started working with Dong Qianyi of the Twelve Great Prodigies right after she entered Marsh City. She was the one that conducted thorough research on the berserk factor from the Octoviolet Silversnake, even formulating the antidote. Both of them were rare prodigies! 

There were already more than ten soldiers surrounding the front of the research laboratory. When they saw Li Kaihao, they straightened their backs and saluted. He returned the salute and said, “You all wait in the corridor, I’ll deal with this.” 

“Yes, sir!” The soldiers left to wait in the hallway. 

Li Kaihao stepped forward and placed his hand on the screen, which scanned his palm. The system informed him that the door couldn’t be opened yet, which was no surprise. However, he tapped on a phone symbol on the side. 

Within the lab, a ringtone sounded from the request for communication. Xiang Ning and Alia looked at each other. 

“Answer call.” In the end, Alia made the decision. 

“I’m Li Kaihao, commander of Fortress Three. I wish to talk to you two. Don’t worry, I’m alone.” He thought he would have to wait a while, but he didn’t expect the door to open immediately. Li Kaihao was surprised, but hurried in to see Xiang Ning in a soldier’s uniform and an exhausted Alia. He didn’t speak, surveying the entire room. He was looking for the beast core to find out what they were doing with it. 

When he saw the metal tube standing within a sterile glass enclosure, his chest tightened. His gut told him the beast core was inside, but the tube looked like a storage compartment for a weapon. Did they really.... “You two made a bioweapon?” He trembled. 

“No,” Xiang Ning blurted without thinking. 

Li Kaihao smiled. “Xiang Ning, you’re sixteen. You broke into a military facility, hurt a soldier, and stole a valuable item. Do you know how long you’ll be locked up for those crimes?” 

“I bled for the Federation, and I’ve made many contributions to the Federation.” Xiang Ning looked determined, as if he had no fear of authority, like Li Kaihao had forced him into a corner. 

Alia stood next to him and covered her mouth, laughing. When she saw Li Kaihao entering alone, she wasn’t worried, because if he really wanted Xiang Ning arrested, it would have been a group of soldiers bursting in to capture him instead. 

“Alright, alright. You two ought to tell me what the hell you’re doing, alright?” Li Kaihao suddenly realized he couldn’t do anything with them. The two people standing in front of him had indeed made major contributions to the Federation. Each of them was equivalent to five people. That didn’t mean they were powerful, being able to fight many people at once. Instead, they possessed great minds that helped advance humanity.

Take Alia, for instance. She obviously wasn’t able to fight as well as those seasoned veterans on the battlefield. In a stampede, a martial artist could kill ten, or even a hundred beasts. However, she was the one that invented the antidote to the berserk factor. How many beasts had she dealt with with that one invention? Not just a hundred, that’s for sure! 

Furthermore, one could only imagine the value Xiang Ning had created with his participation in dimensional storage research. They could be used by civilians, industries and the military; that was the magnificence of such a cutting-edge invention. 

“I want to go train myself.” Xiang Ning solemnly said. He didn’t think he was lying. If he went out looking for Fang Rou, he would definitely encounter many beasts that would greatly advance his cultivation and earn him many Fury Points. Calling it training wasn’t wrong. 

“Train all you want, why’d you have to make a bioweapon for it? And you broke in without telling us.” Li Kaihao widened his eyes. While he couldn’t do anything to the kid, he could scare him a little.

“Did I? No, I didn’t. That’s not true. Miss Alia was the one who brought me in. How could you say I broke in?” Xiang Ning would deny every accusation to the end. 

“Hehe, do you think I’m blind?” Then, he played a video. Xiang Ning watched himself knock a soldier out without a single expression. At that moment, he had activated Disguise so he was already the king of actors. Li Kaihao wouldn’t be able to tell! 

“No, I think there’s a problem with the cameras. That’s not me. I’m a good student with excellent academic results. You can check if you don’t believe me. I, Xiang Ning, would never do such a thing.” Xiang Ning waved, denying it. What choice did he have? If he admitted to anything, he would be sent to jail for years! What would his sister do without him? 

Li Kaihao wasn’t the only one who felt his mouth twitch. Even Alia’s face twitched. This brat was shameless! Even a tier nine Beast King would surrender in the face of such thick skin. 

Li Kaihao didn’t know what to do with Xiang Ning. You’re the prodigy, so you’re the boss. Everything you say is right. I can’t do anything even if you admitted to it. 

Many people would say Xiang Ning was no boss... but he was a major contributor to the invention of dimensional space storage technology. So if he wasn’t a boss, who was? 

“Fine, fine, fine. I don’t care if you want to go out and train, but you’ve got to leave that here.” Li Kaihao pointed at the metal tube. 

“Mr. Commander, I think you won’t believe us if we say anything else, so I’ll tell you this: other than Xiang Ning, no one can control the bioweapon.” There was no point in fabricating more lies, so Alia spoke up.

“Huh?” 

“You should know that in order for a bioweapon to function, we must insert the user’s DNA during or after the creation process. Other people might be attacked if they tried using it.” It was called a bioweapon because it was alive. Take it as a guard dog for someone’s house. Would it growl at its own owner, or at a stranger? 

Xiang Ning looked at Li Kaihao, struggling to make out the words. “I’ll exchange the Kaiser Aurumsaur’s carcass for this, alright? Making a bioweapon with a beast core is very difficult, we were just lucky.” 

Fury Points +66

Li Kaihao felt like he might not be able to hold back any longer. What the hell?! You’re acting like YOU’RE the one losing out on this deal. When we first asked you to pick, you picked the carcass! 

Since Li Kaihao was still leaking hostility, Xiang Ning thought for a moment. This was the commander of Fortress Three after all, and Li Kaihao didn’t trouble him despite all that had happened. “Alright, the next time I get a beast core, I’ll give it to you.” 

Fury Points +111
