“Why are the two of you taking so long?”
Le Dayuan saw the two of them get close through the window and walked out first. He smiled while wiping his hands on the apron.
He not only knew how to create crystal weapons, but he also learned how to cook.
Le Dayuan said that when he worked in the factory, he learned this in his free time.
“It smells delicious from far away.” Ye Zhongming giggled and walked out. There was a big table in the hall with ten dishes. Of course, these dishes had an apocalypse flavor to them. The materials, especially meat, were from mutated lifeforms.
But they were still done using Earth techniques and had nothing to do with Cloud Peak delicacies.
Not long after, Xia Lei, Liang Chuyin, and Miya arrived together. Even Xia Bai and Red Hair came.
The few of them were all very close to Ye Zhongming, so they couldn’t be separated.
Everyone started to eat quickly. Red Hair looked the same as a human, but she still didn’t like to eat such food. She also didn’t need water. She just smiled before leaving. Xia Bai followed. They were people who weren’t used to such situations.
It was basically just the few women talking. Ye Zhongming and Le Dayuan smiled and listened. Only when they talked about the serious stuff did they join in.
“The mutated rats are at the reproductive peak?” Le Dayuan placed the wine glass down and thought about it, “In the next year or two, the number of rats will reach a shocking number. The reproduction speed will also be maintained as the next generation grows.”
He paused and looked at the few people, “Can I take it that the Rat King is taking us for a fool?”
Ye Zhongming ate a mouth of food, but his chewing was slow. He said after swallowing, “At least it is hiding stuff from us. As for the goal, it might not want to hurt us. Maybe it just wants to protect itself.”
“Of course, if they get stronger than us one day, we will be the ones that have to try to protect ourselves.”
Hearing Ye Zhongming say that, Liu Zhenghong also placed her chopsticks down.
“I have different thoughts. The Rat King is far smarter than we think. Since it trusts our technology, it probably can guess that we can see the pattern. Although it didn’t say it, it still sent many experimental bodies. It might be using this method to show off its silent objection. But it isn’t a warning. It just wants us to fear. After all, Cloud Peak is strong and does not have a chance to overtake us.”
“Sister Hong, you have a plan?” Miya looked at this woman, who was like a creator of all things, with a worshipping gaze.
“Hehe.” She smiled, “Although I am not sure, with so many experimental targets, the rats might become a gene source we most analyze.”
Everyone waited for her to continue, but she stopped.
Everyone was stunned. Le Dayuan understood his wife the most and shook his head, “Why are you whetting their appetite?”
“Right Sister Hong. We don’t understand your technicalities; don’t bully us for not being smart enough.” Xia Lei teased.
Liu Zhenghong laughed and started to explain.
“Since I understand the most, it means we can use them. I might not be able to create a mutated rat army for Cloud Peak now, but I can logically use their genes on lifeforms we can control.”
Liu Zhenghong’s eyes were bright as she talked about her job.
“If my skills break through, maybe I might be able to create a rat army for Cloud Peak.”
Everyone, including Ye Zhongming, eyes opened wide.
Something that sounded simple to Liu Zhenghong had deep meaning.
Cloud Peak’s gene lifeform army had reached a certain number in the past, but they were nurtured or modified in the lab individually.
This meant that Cloud Peak’s gene techniques were stuck at the basis of only being able to modify genes.
Because of that barrier, the Death King Tree’s modification had stopped.
But if Liu Zhenghong could use the mutated rat’s genes to create an army, it meant that she could change the reproduction ability of lifeforms. Even if they couldn’t give birth like normal, she could create test-tube babies at scale.
If it works, it means that Cloud Peak would have an endless cannon fodder squad, which would reduce its losses and increase its combat strength.
Due to the way genes could be altered, they would gain some rat-type lifeforms with various functions to help Cloud Peak.
This could also help Death King Tree and other experiments progress.
This made it seem like they did benefit from working with the mutated rats.
Ye Zhongming thought about it, “Although Sister Hong has a way to solve it, it needs time for the mutated rats loyal to us to grow. We still need to think of a way to restrict these rats.”
Everyone knew Ye Zhongming had an idea and didn’t interrupt his thoughts. Moments later, he asked Xia Lei, “When will Cannibal Chain’s first batch of goods arrive?”
Xia Lei estimated the time, “Recently, why? What does that have to do with the mutated rats?”
Ye Zhongming smiled, “There isn’t much relation, but if we link them up, wouldn’t they be related?”
He lowered his head. Red Hair appeared before him, “Can you contact the Rat King?”
Red Hair thought about it and nodded. He didn’t know where that timid Rat King was but she knew how to let it know that she was looking for it.
“Tell it to increase the number of rats and materials provided to the lab. It must be double. Also, tell it that it is time for it to show some sincerity. I need 50 thousand, no, 100 thousand mutated rats to follow me somewhere.”
