"How is that possible! Those three actually chose to give up? "
"I'm not seeing things right?!"
"They actually gave up on the mission!!!"
Amidst such clamoring, Zi's expression remained unchanged. Instead, her fingernails had sunk into her palms, as her heart surged with tempestuous waves.
"Those three, they actually gave up?? Don't tell me none of them entered the top 3? That's not right, that doesn't make sense. Alright, let's ignore them for now. At least those three no longer pose a direct threat to us. Thus, the situation is clear … …. "
Since Sheyan had started, Reef and Mogensha naturally followed suit. Their abandonment was like a stone that stirred up a thousand ripples! Most people believed that Sheyan's actions were incited by Reef … … .but no matter what, following the trio's withdrawal, the original chaotic situation instantly became clear. It instantly evolved into a direct conflict between the remaining contestants and the Illume-union.
Because no matter how smooth the mission was, only three would be able to obtain the final reward! The remaining contestants would definitely be squeezed out!
Following the departure of the base's upper echelons, the hostility between both sides was exceptionally obvious. At this moment, one of the remaining contestants finally stood out, and started to contend against the Illume-union as equals.
This person's name was Flint Light, he should be contestant no. 15711. Sheyan still had a certain impression of this person during the battle against the beast horde. He was from the southern region, and his performance wasn't low-key nor did he have any outstanding points. Furthermore, during the confrontation against the group of Growth-hunters, he was exceedingly mediocre. To be able to conceal himself till now was already commendable.
Yet now, with Sheyan and the other two withdrawing, he could no longer conceal himself. Because if he continued concealing himself, those neutral contestants would continue to wither away. Even if they wanted to contend against the Illume-union, they wouldn't be able to do so.
Sheyan intended to stand aside and watch the fierce struggle between them, and see if he could fish in troubled waters. Yet at this moment, an RDA staff member suddenly sought him out. This staff member wasn't anyone else, but Parker's secretary, Jenny. She whispered to Sheyan.
"Mister Parker requests for you to make a trip to his office."
Sheyan nodded, his heart stirring. Could it be that matter? Hence, he greeted Chris Redfield in the party channel and walked over. After pondering for a moment, he put on Chris Redfield's lucky bracelet on his wrist. After arriving at Parker's office, he saw Dr. Grace Augustine in Parker's office. The two of them seemed to be discussing something.
Upon seeing Sheyan, Parker enthusiastically walked over and patted him on the shoulder. He then introduced him to Dr. Grace.
"This is Second Lieutenant Seaman, Grace. You must have heard of his name back on Earth, right?"
Professor Grace furrowed her brows ….. she was obviously 'moved' by Sheyan's high charm.
"I seem to have heard a little about it."
Parker took a sip of his coffee and said to Grace in a serious tone, "Don't worry.
"Grace, Seaman is actually the spokesperson of a mysterious and wealthy gentleman. I believe that if we were to invite him to take a look at the series of facilities and processes of the Avatar project, his boss would be greatly interested in investing in this project."
Dr. Grace bluntly replied.
"Parker, I don't think he will be able to understand anything. May I ask Mr Seaman about your education?"
Sheyan shrugged his shoulders and replied.
"Apologies, I didn't finish high school. If you want, I can only provide a primary school diploma. "
Dr. Grace continued coldly.
"Then can you try analyzing the sequence of a human's genetic code?"
Sheyan laughed and replied.
"Oh, I'm quite proficient in analyzing the winnings of blackjack."
Dr. Grace completely ignored him. She turned to Parker and said,
"Ok, I don't think he will be able to obtain any useful information from this tour. I suggest we give this soldier a plate of chicken to pass his time and not add to our busy schedule."
Just as Parker was feeling awkward, Sheyan said, "That's right.
"Perhaps I really won't be able to obtain anything from this tour, but I can see something else. That is respect. Dr. Grace, you may be very talented in the field of science, but please don't forget that respecting people, especially respecting an investor, is a basic common sense that a company should have. At the very least, you should have a basic reverence and gratitude for Mr. Parker! If not for his assistance and allocation of funds, you wouldn't even be able to research any bullshit. "
Dr. Grace's face turned ashen as she ignored Sheyan.
"Parker, I still have matters to attend to, I'll take my leave first. Lastly, my laboratory will not receive any unrelated personnel! "
After speaking, she turned and left.
Parker's expression didn't change at all, but his tone became heavier.
"Grace, I'm very happy to chat with you, but our conversation just now wasn't a casual chat, but a notice. Furthermore, I didn't seek your opinion, so I will treat your words as though I didn't hear it."
Dr. Grace turned around and glared at Parker.
"How can you be like this?"
Parker coldly replied.
"I'm starting to suspect that persuading Mister Solim to carry out the Avatar project was a mistaken awakening. It should've stopped long ago when the Avatar project couldn't be mass-produced. Yet I was still persuaded by you and supported you. Yet you repaid my support by rejecting, accomplishing nothing and being arrogant. "
"Oh, Grace, listen to what I have to say. The reason why the shareholders sent us to this damned dangerous planet is to excavate even more Pandora crystals. However, can you please tell me, how would the project that you've spent tens of billions of dollars on help in increasing the monthly production report? How many percentage points did it increase? Don't mention anything else, please answer me. "
Dr. Grace remained silent for a while before replying.
"Temporarily not."
Parker raised his eyebrows and replied.
"Then it's settled. 10 minutes later, Seaman and I will be visiting the RDA company's genetic research department. If you have any dissatisfaction, you are welcome to complain to the board of directors, or submit your resignation letter!"
Dr. Grace walked out and slammed the door. She then gave Sheyan a deep and cold glare. Sheyan instantly received a notification.
[Your relationship with important storyline character 'Dr. Grace' has dropped from 'cold' to 'enmity'.]
[Important storyline character 'Dr. Grace' is a non-combatant. She will not attack you, but will reject all forms of communication with you.]
Sheyan could do nothing about it. Naturally, a person must learn how to grasp opportunities. Professor Grace clearly didn't have a good impression of him. If he hadn't been a little more forceful earlier, this woman might not have looked at him in a different light. Instead, he might have messed up the matter with Parker and failed to obtain the blood of the avatar's main character. Trying to take care of everything would result in failure on both sides.
*****
The following series of events was unbelievably easy. It seems like the saying 'a fortress is usually breached from the inside' wasn't without reason. Under the guidance of supervisor Parker, Sheyan successfully entered the biological laboratory. He inspected the avatar connector and the complete amniotic tank. Under the unwilling cooperation of Dr. Grace, Sheyan witnessed the entire process of a human controlling an avatar.
Following that, he walked towards the main character's amniotic tank. Suddenly, he exclaimed in surprise.
"This expression, it seems like a close friend of mine. Could he be Jack Sully?"
Supervisor Parker sighed and said, "That's right.
"Nono, my friend, you've seen wrongly. This is based on the DNA of one of our RDA's internal doctors. Unfortunately, he met with misfortune on Earth. Only someone with the same DNA as him can control this big guy. Fortunately, I heard he had a twin brother. Eh, I think I saw his name was indeed Jack Sully. This allowed us to have a chance of recovering our 50 million USD and not sending it to the nest of destruction."
At this moment, he saw a bearded man draped in a white lab coat. Dr. Matthew Padt interjected from the side.
"If we destroy this avatar, that would be too much of a pity. Because the rest of the avatars are artificial embryos formed on earth. After being transported here for 5 years, they slowly grew. This avatar is something that we have successfully created here after many failed attempts. It is of great significance. "
"Wow!" Sheyan displayed an expression of deep veneration. "I didn't expect there to be such a complicated story. More importantly, I'm 5 light years away from earth, yet I'm actually able to see something so closely related to Jack Sully. Mr. Parker, you must agree to my request. Let me shake hands with this big guy."
Supervisor Parker was obviously in a difficult position. Instead, Dr. Grace coldly replied.
"The amniotic fluid of an avatar isn't as gentle as a human's. It can even be described as an intensely alkaline substance! Parker, your guest is here for a tour, not to mess up this place. "
Since their relationship was already hostile, Sheyan naturally didn't have a good reply.
"Shut up old woman. I'm about to vomit from the smoke in your mouth. Don't you know that interrupting others when they are conversing is a very impolite thing to do? Or are you saying, you think you can make decisions on behalf of Parker? "
Clearly, Parker had made up his mind after hearing Grace's provocative words. Ignoring Grace, who was trembling with anger, he turned to the bearded Dr. Padt.
"Grant this strange little wish of Seaman's. But Mr Lieutenant, I hope this will be the last time I make such a difficult request." If you like this work, I welcome you to come to qidian.com to vote. Your support, is my greatest motivation.)
