Twisted Dreams-Chapter 171 - 143: Dragon Creation Project

Bai Mountain City, Safety Management Station.

It’s a three-story building, located on the edge of Bai Mountain City.

Newly renovated, everything looks new.

However, beneath the fresh veneer lies a thousand holes; those rats didn’t know when they invaded here.

The phone lines, internet cables are cut.

Many office computers have also been damaged.

Luckily, some secret surveillance cameras weren’t found by the rats, preserving evidence of their invasion of the Safety Management Station.

Through the surveillance footage, you can see a group of large rats crawling in from an unknown place.

They wreak havoc while the two on-duty administrators of the Safety Management Station are not paying attention.

Wei Ming and Lao Sha sat in the office, holding tablets in their hands.

They coincidentally went over the file of the ’Red Skirt’ once again.

[Male, 35 years old, originally named Yuan Shan, a butcher in Bai Mountain City.]

[Wife is a South Sea person, a nurse at the South Sea Medical University Affiliated Second Hospital. Owns a school district house, daughter is studying in South Sea.]

[Last year, a flu outbreak occurred in South Sea, and both wife and daughter passed away one after another.]

[The first crime was at the beginning of the year, and the victim was a female nurse at the South Sea Medical University Affiliated Second Hospital.]

[The second crime was on the fifteenth of the first lunar month, and the victim was a female nurse at Lian City Central Hospital.]

[The third crime...]

Wei Ming murmured:

"Is it medical trouble because of the death of his wife and daughter?"

Lao Sha said gloomily:

"He’s indiscriminately killing medical staff, it can’t be considered just medical trouble, right?"

Wei Ming pondered for a moment:

"Solving cases is not our specialty, what’s really with the Red Skirt, someone else will investigate.

Our main task this time is still Changbai Mountain.

These rats are clearly premeditated and intelligent.

Well... at least one of the rats is intelligent, it’s definitely an Extraordinary animal."

Lao Sha asked in surprise:

"You suspect the beasts of Changbai Mountain did it?"

Wei Ming replied with a wry smile:

"That’s what I’m most afraid of.

If the beasts of Changbai Mountain specifically target the Security Administration, it means the beasts have detected the existence of the Security Administration.

Just like Director Cao Yi said, a Demon King appeared in Changbai Mountain, always ready to oppose human society."

In legend, demons are always man-eaters, humanity’s natural enemies.

Lao Sha’s expression became solemn:

"That’s indeed dangerous, should we request support?"

Wei Ming shook his head:

"This is just our speculation, we still need facts to speak for themselves."

...

The next day, morning.

Several black business cars headed to Changbai Mountain.

These cars are special task vehicles of the Security Administration.

Inside the cars, there are the electronic lights of various instruments, several drones took off and flew towards Changbai Mountain.

To explore such a large mountain range, relying solely on manpower is obviously not enough.

Wei Ming sat in the car as the technical team introduced the functions of the drones.

At that moment, his phone rang.

Wei Ming glanced at the phone:

"Hello? Brother Yi."

Cao Yi asked:

"Where were you last night when something happened at the Safety Management Station?"

Wei Ming was stunned for a moment:

"I was having dinner with the leaders of Bai Mountain City’s Public Security Bureau."

Cao Yi scolded:

"Are you crazy? Why are you having a meal with them?"

Wei Ming awkwardly explained:

"Isn’t it because I’m working in Bai Mountain City? I thought I’d build a good relationship with them..."

Cao Yi scolded even louder:

"They will try to trip you up if they want to, and cooperate if they want to. Attending those drinking gatherings is useless for you at all.

Remember, do your job seriously, don’t mess with useless social dealings! You can’t handle it!"

Wei Ming’s face burned red like fire.

Cao Yi continued:

"Someone made a fuss about last night’s incident.

Although you’re in Bai Mountain City, the Red Skirt still got away, and the Management Station was attacked, questioning your ability.

Pay attention, don’t just do childish things."

Wei Ming said in a low voice:

"I understand, Brother Yi, it won’t happen again.

But... what if the Red Skirt runs away..."

Cao Yi sneered:

"The Red Skirt’s first crime scene was in South Sea.

If the case had been handed over to me back then, I would have solved it long ago.

Don’t worry about the Red Skirt, focus on your job, and investigate Changbai Mountain thoroughly."

Wei Ming pondered for a moment and said sincerely:

"Thank you, Brother Yi."

Cao Yi scolded:

"Crazy, if not for your sister’s sake, I wouldn’t bother with you."

Saying that, he hung up the phone.

Wei Ming’s expression was complicated as he shook off the chaotic thoughts in his mind and said to the satellite phone:

"We must complete the exploration of Changbai Mountain within a month!"

During this month, he also has other work tasks. He is to build a monitoring station for Changbai Mountain here.

The appearance of numerous Extraordinary Beasts in Changbai Mountain was something the Security Administration predicted early on.

After all, the Blood Moon phenomenon occurred there as well.

The establishment of a monitoring station in Changbai Mountain was inevitable, but Cao Yi’s arrival accelerated the progress.

...

South Sea, Angel Harbor Hospital, underground laboratory.

Du Yangming walked into the lowest level.

From a distance, he could see Kong Qianqiu in a white lab coat and Lilith in a black suit.

The two of them bowed slightly:

"You have arrived."

"Good evening, Sir."

Du Yangming approached, looking at the huge vessel in the center.

Inside the vessel was a light green liquid, and in the liquid was a giant python with four legs that was swimming!

The appearance, it resembled a four-legged flood dragon!

This is the number one task of Six Paths Biotechnology, the Classic of Mountains and Seas project.

Creation, the creation of legendary Extraordinary Creatures!

Kong Qianqiu approached with a tablet.

He presented the contents on the tablet to Du Yangming, saying:

"Creating a real dragon is the current top task.

Don’t be deceived by this four-legged python lacking any Extraordinary Power, we successfully grafted eagle talons and tiger paws onto the python.

This is a significant experimental success.

In the future, we will graft antlers, fish scales, and more, giving it the appearance of a true dragon, and its size will increase several times.

Moreover, the inner organs of the test subject will be rapidly modified to grant it the power of a true dragon.

It will soar among the clouds, summon rain, and breathe fire!"

Du Yangming stared at the snake in the vessel that hadn’t yet transformed into a dragon, already imagining the impact its emergence would have on the world.

The appearance of this dragon will advance the Extraordinary Civilization.

The bonds Xia Country people have with dragons are indescribable in words.

Du Yangming then asked:

"Without wings, can it fly?

Your initial choice of Extraordinary Creature being a dragon, isn’t the target a bit too ambitious?"

The spirit plants and the fruits of the Tree of Human Essence given by the master, none of them are capable of flight.

It was confidently promised back then that legendary creatures could be created.

But asking the master again for flight-capable Extraordinary Items would be a bit embarrassing.

Theoretically, an Extraordinary can temporarily stay airborne, but that’s just the result of consuming a lot of Spiritual Power.

This python is already huge; with its size increasing under Kong Qianqiu’s experimentation, how much Spiritual Power would it take to keep it aloft?

Kong Qianqiu chuckled:

"Of course it can, biotechnology can achieve that.

It’s just that the current experimental data is too limited, and I have too few assistants; creating a dragon requires a lot more time.

Could you ask our benefactor to spare some more personnel?"

Du Yangming smiled slightly.

The master is indeed foresighted.

Recently, the charity plan at Angel Harbor Hospital has brought in many talents with serious illnesses.

These talents would become the talent pool for Six Paths Biotechnology.

Du Yangming said:

"Alright, assuming adequate personnel, how long would it take to complete the project?"

Kong Qianqiu became serious:

"Three months should do."
