Chapter 41

Adam returned to the laboratory. James and Frank were still working hard to construct the Psychokinetic.

Ever since he had the laboratory, Adam no longer returned to the dormitory. He ate and slept in the laboratory. Ignoring the two, Adam returned to his office and began to hatch the egg according to the method in the book.

Adam used a wind blade to open a large wound on his fingertip. Blood flowed out continuously. Adam's expression did not change. He pressed his finger against the eggshell and began to inscribe the contract.

As expected of a creature known for its chaos and evil. The egg greedily devoured blood while instinctively resisting the contract runes. This resistance was very obvious. The eggshell constantly erased the runes in the process of squirming. This made it very difficult to inscribe the runes.

"Behave." Adam was impatient. Psychokinetic came out of his body and hit the egg hard. Adam was more curious about the egg. He did not care if his strength could be improved because of it. This kind of foreign object had more research value to him. It would be good if he could get a living creature. If he could not, he could accept a dead one.

The egg actually emitted a painful will. Adam could clearly feel the eggshell contracting violently. Then, a sharp whistling sound appeared in his mind. It was still in the egg stage, but it already had such an ability.

The egg's resistance weakened a lot. After Adam found that it was effective, he continued to attack the egg violently. He did not care if he killed the creature.

Even so, the inscribing of the contract still took him a lot of time. Adam was not in a hurry. According to the book, the inscribing of the master-servant contract was a tug-of-war. The wizard had to repeat it every day until the abyssal creature submitted.

Adam accelerated the cell division in his finger. The wound healed at a very fast speed. Then, he came to the operating table.

What he needed next was a large amount of energy and flesh.

This kind of Abyssal creature, which could only grow to Level 7 at most if it did not have the chance to become 'abnormal', could only be fed with energy stones. Higher level ones would require ether crystals. Adam did not lack energy stones, but flesh …

"The intersection of civilization and barbarism." Adam sighed hypocritically and placed an order on the control panel — ten low-grade slaves from the other plane, with a total value of one hundred energy stones.

The slave business was not hidden. Instead, it was placed on the trading list along with other resources. The price was clearly marked, and Adam had been curious about it for a long time. However, because he did not need it before, he did not purchase it. This time, because of the egg, his curiosity was satisfied.

Slave trading was a 'legal' business in the Mage Plane. A large number of mages fought in other planes. Apart from plundering specific resources, the most valuable and easiest thing to obtain was slaves. In the eyes of the mages, planes that didn't have a social system had no value at all. The mages would slaughter and plunder these planes without any psychological burden, and in the end, they would use shocking methods to sacrifice the entire plane to the Mage Plane.

Even if some planes had formed a social system over a long period of natural evolution, the mages' methods were not necessarily gentle. These planes would have to submit and become the colony of a Hyperdimensional or even a Necromancer. From then on, the plane would have to develop according to the will of the mages. If they dared to resist, only destruction would await them.

Only when a creature equivalent to a Necromancer appeared in the other plane, would they have the right to talk to the Mage Plane.

This was the attitude of a predator.

.....

The slaves that Adam bought would not arrive immediately. If he placed an order now, they would be delivered to the laboratory on time tomorrow morning.

Adam spent the whole afternoon fusing the portable space. He tried to analyze the structure of the rune, but found that without the support of knowledge and theory, this rune was like a heavenly book that he did not know where to start. After many fruitless experiments, he could only obediently fuse it.

The process of fusing was very simple. He just had to peel off a piece of skin anywhere on his body, and then place the materialized rune on it. After that, the portable space belonged to Adam.

The clouds and wind were light, and there were no fluctuations of energy or space. However, Adam was fascinated. This kind of technology was too amazing.

Adam could use any method to open this space from any part of his body that was no more than one meter in front of him. However, it seemed that he could not put living things in. After Adam put a few contracts, broken Ether crystals, and the magic items that he had seized, he wanted to put the egg in as well. However, there was an incomparable panic and resistance from the egg, as if it would be a death zone if it entered.

Because there was still a lot of value that had not been squeezed out of the egg, Adam could only regretfully give up. He decided to find a living thing in the future and put it in to see the effect.

The next morning, Adam opened the door of the laboratory. Experimental subjects were not allowed to stay in the laboratory at night. James and Frank waited at the door of the laboratory early every day.

There were more people today. Before Adam opened the door, they were talking with William. William knew James, but he did not expect that the rune knowledge tutor was now willing to be Adam's experimental subject, just like him.

In addition to the senior apprentices, what shocked him even more was the ten slaves who were tied up with ropes and lined up outside the door like walking corpses.

They were similar in size to humans, but their limbs were longer. Their skin was a strange purple color, and they were naked. Judging from their body characteristics, there were both males and females. They did not have any intention to resist at all, and they did not have any reaction to William's curious touch.

James and Frank were not curious about this, but William was different. After signing the contract with Adam, he could not help but ask, "Those …" He did not know what to call the slaves from the other plane, so he could only vaguely say, "Are they also experimental subjects?"

Adam was about to order the alchemy puppet to create a vessel similar to a blood pool when he heard William's question. He replied, "No, they are not experimental subjects, but consumables."

Adam then calmly ordered, "First, try to build the rune group yourself. During this time, if you have any questions, ask James. After you have built it, find me." After that, he led a slave into the depths of the laboratory.

William looked at the remaining nine slaves and only felt a bone-chilling coldness from the bottom of his heart. It instantly penetrated his body, causing his movements to stiffen. Consumables? Even if they looked different, they looked similar to humans. Using them as consumables?

Adam did not care about what William thought. Although these slaves were consumables with low value, they were samples that had never been seen before. Adam was very interested in the body structure of these human-like creatures from the other plane.

The room in the depths of the laboratory belonged to Adam alone. There were some small precision instruments and an operating table inside.

Adam led the slave to the operating table, wanting to put him on the operating table. The slave, who had been seemingly unresponsive all this time, suddenly exploded with strong emotions. He let out a piercing scream, and there were obvious fluctuations in the tone of his voice. It was probably their language.

Adam guessed that he was afraid, begging for mercy, or cursing.

The slave struggled and turned around to escape the laboratory, but it was useless. Although his resistance was strong, his strength was negligible. He only managed to tighten the rope.

Adam used Psychokinetic to imprison him and sent him to the operating table. Mechanical arms stretched out around the operating table and firmly fixed him in place.

Adam changed into another set of clothes. The material of this set of clothes was spotless and would not be stained with blood. At the same time, he thought that since they had language, it meant that they had thoughts. Then, what was the soul of a creature from the other plane like?

This question was more interesting to Adam than the structure of the body, but he did not have the means to observe the soul.

Shaking his head to dispel the rest of the thoughts, Adam condensed Psychokinetic into ten tentacles. Together with his own hands, a total of six scalpels were operating at the same time.

During this process, the slave screamed fiercely, and the muscles in his body trembled uncontrollably. Adam turned a deaf ear and continued to cut. Finally, after a cut, the slave lost all signs of life. His eyes were filled with bone-chilling hatred and fear.

"This is the level of pain that exceeded the self-protection mechanism of the body. Death caused by the collapse of the will." Adam coldly recorded.

"Brain structure simple, inferred low intelligence. Unable to observe the existence of the soul. "

"Muscle fibers thicker than a human's. In the complete state, it has more strength than an ordinary human."

"Body structure different. The 'heart' is in the center of the chest, the 'kidney' is under the 'heart', the 'stomach' is on the right. Very large, strong intestines, inferred strong metabolic function. No other internal organs. "

"No respiratory tract found."

"Unknown stone-like organ found. Weak energy aura, extremely low energy level."

"Reproductive organs similar to a human's, belonging to a mammal."

The dissection was carried out at an extremely fast and stable speed. Adam dissected the slave inch by inch, recording all the information he obtained. After two hours, he finally finished all the dissection work.

"Vitality stronger than a human's, but low intelligence." Adam ordered the alchemy puppet to clean the laboratory and threw the unrecognizable corpse into the blood pool. Then he thought, "Sure enough, intelligence is the reason for power. Mages have intelligence and the power derived from it, so they can play the role of plunderers. But they can only passively bear it. "

Adam changed his clothes and walked out of the laboratory. William had been staring at the room uneasily. After seeing the things in the alchemy puppet's hands and Adam's figure, he could not help but shudder. Now, his feelings of admiration, dissatisfaction, and hostility toward Adam had finally turned into pure fear.

"This monster! This monster … "William lowered his head deeply to hide his fear, and then shouted in his heart.

Frank stood up and said, "Do you need help?" He knew what Adam wanted to do. That kind of thing was obviously not pleasant. With the consciousness of an 'assistant', he volunteered.
