"Wait!"
Xu Lang and Xu Ruyan hadn't gone far when a voice called out from behind.
Luo Lin opened the door and said, "Are you going to the Laboratory Building? Can you take along?"
Tao Tao peeked out from beside the door, looking at Xu Lang and Xu Ruyan with expectant eyes, though it was unclear what exactly she was hoping for.
"Alright." Xu Lang nodded in agreent.
He just happened to have so details about the Evolution Serum he wanted to ask Luo Lin.
"Thank you. I'd like to see what the laboratories here look like." Luo Lin replied, then led Tao Tao out of the dorm and closed the door behind them.
After the group of four had walked so distance, Xu Ruyan suddenly looked at Luo Lin and her daughter and asked, "Going out for Floor Sweeping might involve danger. Do you still plan to bring Tao Tao along in this situation?"
Luo Lin paused in her step, then said, "Yes, I wouldn't feel at ease leaving her at ho."
"You could have her stay at our dorm." Xu Ruyan's beautiful eyes remained fixed on Luo Lin, feeling the latter shouldn't have failed to consider this point.
This woman, Luo Lin, possessed a cautiousness particular to research personnel.
"That, I wouldn't feel at ease with." Xu Lang joked.
Luo Lin's expression remained normal as she smiled and said, "Tao Tao can be a bit mischievous at tis."
Xu Lang turned his face to look ahead, but inwardly, his mind sharpened.
His Sixth Sense had detected sothing off about Luo Lin just now.
Tao Tao really did have so issues!
"Luo Lin, Golden Revolution shouldn't be the upper limit of Evolution Serums, right?" Xu Lang asked.
"No, Evolution Serums are the crystallization of nationwide scientific research efforts, with the ultimate goal of turning humans into gods. Golden Revolution is only a second-tier serum." Luo Lin shook her head.
"What is the first-tier Evolution Serum?" Xu Lang pressed.
Luo Lin fell silent for a mont before shaking her head. "The most cutting-edge project is codenad Demigod. It alters a person at the genetic level... The most perfect Demigod serum is called 'Protheus,' which can grant soone the ability to foresee the future. That's all I know."
The scene fell into a montary silence as Xu Lang and Xu Ruyan digested this information.
"What about serums beyond that?" Xu Lang glanced sideways at Luo Lin, his perception fully activated.
"Serums beyond that are only semi-finished products... Don't think I can manufacture them." Luo Lin sighed. "Actually, I'm starting to fear these so-called Evolution Serums sowhat."
Xu Lang didn't care whether Luo Lin was afraid or not and asked, "So, can you manufacture Demigod serums?"
"That depends on the existing conditions." Luo Lin gave Xu Lang a deep look. "The mutation probability after injecting a Demigod serum is as high as 89.1%."
"Mutation?" Xu Lang raised an eyebrow.
Luo Lin explained,
"Yes, mutation into monsters like zombies. The powerful Vitality of the Evolution Serum doesn't allow the recipient to die. So even if your brain dies thousands upon thousands of tis, you'll still be alive, living as a monster!"
"The more powerful the serum, the stronger its immortality. Those who cannot withstand the potency of Golden Revolution will mutate into Tyrants!"
"And those who cannot withstand Demigod serums will beco... Abominations! Undying Abominations!"
By the end, clear fear was evident in Luo Lin's eyes.
This, however, only piqued Xu Lang's interest. Upon further questioning, he learned that Undying Abominations were terrifying zombies that even small missiles couldn't kill.
"If only I could upgrade Little Zombie into an Undying Abomination, that would be aweso!"
Xu Lang preliminarily judged that the level of an Undying Abomination was at least Level 10 or higher.
This ant that entering the Exploration Mode of the Zombie Attack event would very likely involve encountering such monsters.
No wonder the survival probability in Exploration Mode was so low.
The group seed to be chatting casually, but in reality, Xu Lang had already used his Sixth Sense to probe out a lot of information.
And Luo Lin was completely unaware of all this!
The Sixth Sense was too useful, just like a mind detector, leaving no lies hidden!
Luo Lin's biggest secret was—Tao Tao was a successful recipient of a Demigod serum!
The fact that the mother and daughter could traverse the blood mist certainly wasn't ordinary, but Xu Lang hadn't expected it to be *this* extraordinary.
Luo Lin herself was straightforward, admitting she had used Golden Revolution.
...
The Laboratory Building had five floors. Its footprint wasn't vast, but it wasn't small either.
In so hidden areas, Xu Ruyan had set up so signals. This ti, none of those signals had been disturbed.
This indicated no one had co to the Laboratory Building.
Tao Tao had hardly ever been out exploring. Now, arriving at the Laboratory Building, her face was full of wonder. "It feels so much like the place where you work, Mom."
Luo Lin smiled dismissively.
The Laboratory Building was worlds apart from where she used to work. If not for the Dorm Survival Ga being able to yield all sorts of unreasonable items, she truly wouldn't have had the confidence to replicate the Evolution Serum.
—Xu Lang had already collected most of the necessary items for her!
Next, the four began searching for supplies.
As a result, Luo Lin found yet another key item needed to replicate the Evolution Serum.
The progress towards mass-producing Evolution Serums was getting closer and closer.
Roughly half an hour later, Xu Lang and his group had searched every corner of the Laboratory Building.
The total value obtained from this Floor Sweeping was no less than one hundred thousand Copper Coins, which even made Xu Lang raise an eyebrow.
If he, occupying such a small territory, could have harvests this substantial, then the gains of those Dorm Owners were unimaginable.
"As long as you can survive, there won't be any poor people in the Dorm Survival Ga. Bread and love will both be available, provided you can survive!"
On their way back ho, Xu Lang's group saw two groups of people engaged in a fierce fight.
Both sides were already fighting heatedly, but the mont they saw Xu Lang, they imdiately turned tail and ran.
This was the credibility of the Civil Anti-Black Group Director!
"Xu Lang, do you want to go check out the rit Tower?" Xu Ruyan suddenly asked.
Having just completed a Floor Sweeping run, Xu Lang was in high spirits and nodded in agreent. "Sure, let's go for a walk then."
As he spoke, he ruffled Tao Tao's head.
"Let's take Tao Tao out to play too, okay?"
"Okay! Thank you, Brother Xu Lang!"
Favors owed, interest compounding!
Cultivating a bond with Tao Tao was definitely not a mistake.
If the age gap between Xu Lang and Luo Lin weren't so large, it wouldn't be impossible for him to beco a godfather.
However, there was one rather strange thing. Even though Xu Lang knew the two of them weren't suitable, Luo Lin's Comfort Level was peculiarly high!
