"I anticipated the experint wouldn’t succeed so easily, so I’ve already sent people to look for other rare Snake Species."
Dongfang Ye spoke calmly. His words carried a powerful presence. A man of great ambition must always think three steps ahead.
Every potential risk had to be considered. The Shanye Group’s influence in Wencheng was second to none. He, Dongfang Ye, was a man who could move heaven and earth. No matter how precious a rare Snake Species was, it was still just a snake. Finding a few more wasn’t impossible, just a matter of ti.
But ti was money, so he had made arrangents long ago.
But Dr. Snake, Chen Mo, shook his head. "Judging from this failed experint, ordinary rare Snake Species are useless. The amount of Giant Snake Gene we’ve extracted is limited. We can’t afford to test them one by one."
"Ordinary rare Snake Species?"
Dongfang Ye was taken aback for a mont. ’Are there different tiers even among rare Snake Species?’
He only knew that snakes were divided into three categories: common Snake Species, uncommon Snake Species, and rare Snake Species.
"Even among rare Snake Species, there are different classes. The Mangshan Iron Head can only be considered a common-grade rare Snake Species. Its Life Force isn’t strong enough, which is why it couldn’t withstand the Giant Snake Gene."
Dongfang Ye nodded. "Then what kind of rare Snake Species do we need to et our requirents?"
Dr. Snake’s gaze sharpened, his deep eyes filled with wisdom. "It’s hard to explain in detail. Chairman, do you rember the Mutated Bloodsucker Snake that appeared in Bai Town’s She Mountain a few months ago?"
"How could I forget? I sent a few of my n over, and they ca back scared out of their wits by that snake." The mory was vivid for Dongfang Ye. The thought of his n being terrified by a single venomous snake was both laughable and frustrating.
But it also indirectly showed him just how terrifying that snake was.
"The Vampire Snake, a mutated species, a malevolent Mutant Snake. Its Life Force is vigorous, and it’s notoriously hard to kill. Its compatibility with the Giant Snake Gene is as high as ninety percent. If it had been the subject of this experint, we likely wouldn’t have just witnessed that scene."
Chen Mo was a master in his field. He had spent his life working with snakes and knew every Snake Species like the back of his hand. He understood perfectly what Level of snake he needed to find.
"Unfortunately, that snake is difficult to catch. By the ti I sent more people, it had already vanished."
There was nothing Dongfang Ye wanted that he couldn’t obtain. Yet, a single snake had slipped through his fingers.
Dr. Snake, Chen Mo, was also deeply regretful. He said in a low voice, "It was my fault for being careless. I should have gone myself."
"The snake has been spooked. It probably won’t show itself again anyti soon."
Over the past few days, Chen Mo had been keeping a close eye on news of this snake, but after its stunning appearance, it had vanished without a trace, like a Divine Dragon showing only its head but never its tail.
Dongfang Ye frowned and asked, "Besides this snake, are there really no other suitable Snake Species?"
Chen Mo gave a silent, bitter smile. ’There are plenty of snakes in the world, but finding a good one is not so simple. It’s like panning for gold in a great river. Mutated specins, in particular, are even rarer than rare Snake Species.’
"Is there a way to lure that snake out?" Dongfang Ye continued, seeing how much importance Chen Mo placed on that snake, almost as if he had a special fondness for it.
Upon hearing this, Dr. Snake Chen Mo’s eyes suddenly lit up. "There might actually be a way."
"What is it? Please, tell , Doctor."
Chen Mo pondered for a mont before speaking. "The Mutated Bloodsucker Snake is ferocious and malevolent by nature. It’s a classic ophiophagus—a snake that eats other snakes. It has the potential to beco a Snake King. For this kind of snake to grow, it must evolve by consuming venomous snakes of extraordinary lineage."
"If we could use a rare Snake Species as bait, it’s possible we could lure it out."
As soon as he voiced the idea, Chen Mo couldn’t help but shake his head, dismissing it. ’It’s too difficult.’
Rare Snake Species are one in ten thousand. Using one as bait was beyond fanciful. Besides, they didn’t have any rare Snake Species on hand.
Dongfang Ye also fell silent upon hearing the doctor’s idea, because it was indeed a difficult proposition. He had plenty of money, but a rare Snake Species wasn’t sothing you could just buy.
It was a classic case of having a price but no market.
Just then, the grim-faced, black-clad bodyguard behind Dongfang Ye handed him a phone. "A call for you, sir."
Dongfang Ye took the phone and said coolly, "Speak."
About ten seconds later, Dongfang Ye’s eyes lit up slightly. He looked at Chen Mo. "Doctor, we have our bait."
Chen Mo’s eyes widened slightly as he heard Dongfang Ye continue, "According to a reliable source, a rare Snake Species has appeared on Bai Town’s She Mountain. It’s called the Supre Profound Snake."
"The Supre Profound Snake?"
The mont the words were spoken, an image of the snake and all its data flashed through Dr. Snake Chen Mo’s mind. His breathing grew heavy as he muttered to himself, "The Supre Profound Snake... an ancient Mutant Snake, a living Treasure dicine among snakes... This bait is perfect. Absolutely perfect."
As Dr. Snake, there was no snake on earth he didn’t know about. Even venomous snakes that had long vanished from human sight, he knew in great detail.
The Supre Profound Snake hadn’t been seen for several hundred years, but its reputation was imnse. Countless snake experts today dread of obtaining a Supre Profound Snake for research.
Because this snake was so miraculous, it was the only one that truly deserved the description of being a "treasure in every part."
Chen Mo himself had once desperately wanted a Supre Profound Snake for his research, but there had never been any news of one.
Now that news of one had appeared, he felt a pang of reluctance at the thought of using it as bait.
In terms of value, the Supre Profound Snake was arguably the most prized of all snakes, worth a fortune. But in terms of sheer power, the mutated Vampire Snake was terrifyingly superior.
When it first appeared, a snake-catching craze swept through Bai Town. But gradually, the Snake Catchers beca utterly terrified of it, so scared they no longer dared to even enter the mountain. This alone was a testant to the snake’s fearsoness.
The Vampire Snake’s fearso reputation was forged upon the bodies of humans.
Dr. Snake’s current experint required a venomous snake with an exceptionally strong and tenacious Life Force. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be able to withstand the Giant Snake Gene. The fate of the Mangshan Iron Head was still a fresh and vivid mory.
This experintal project was the Shanye Group’s biggest and most ambitious undertaking yet. If it succeeded, it would be a world-shaking achievent, unparalleled by any other.
Injecting the Giant Snake Gene into a venomous snake would trigger a complete transformation. A successful subject would beco a true "giant serpent"—both a Giant Snake and a Snake. It would possess a powerful physique and a venom that could kill without drawing blood. The union of both would give birth to a super-organism.
It is said that in prehistoric tis, there was a massive Snake Species with a dragon-like head and seven nostrils. Its mouth could swallow an elephant, and its nostrils could spray a venom so deadly that a single touch ant certain death. It was a being on the verge of evolving into a Flood Dragon.
Nature is incomparably mysterious and wondrous. It’s no surprise that countless miraculous and terrifying species have existed over hundreds of millions of years. But what humanity knows is just a drop in the ocean. And for the truly great, whether sothing exists or not is irrelevant; they can will a new existence into being.
The Shanye Group was undertaking just such a bold endeavor, and they were already halfway to success.
What they needed now was a venomous snake with a super-strong constitution. In Chen Mo’s view, only the Vampire Snake was suitable. Even the Supre Profound Snake would not suffice.
Therefore, in that instant, he gave his tacit approval.
Chen Mo’s expression said it all. Dongfang Ye understood. He spoke calmly into the phone, "Whoever catches the Supre Profound Snake, my Shanye Group will take it. They can na their price."
