"Crash."
The sound of tables and chairs being knocked over could be heard.
The faces of Feng Zhongzheng and the others were filled with terror. They were all startled and quickly retreated.
The tentacles on Chen Da's arm were waving around, greedily trying to grab onto something. It looked extremely dangerous.
"This is the result of being modified by this metal," Chen Da said with a ferocious expression.
"I call it Moonsilver," Lu Sheng said with a tinge of admiration and regret. "This is a special resource found in the place where the Anomalies are. With the special technique I have mastered, I can modify it and implant it into the human body, making it a part of the human body. But … "
He paused.
"But apart from myself, this thing will automatically attack anything else. There's no way to control it," Chen Da continued.
The tentacles on his arm retracted rapidly and merged into a ball. Then, they shrunk and returned to the original silver metal arm.
"It's in a closed state. As long as I switch it on, I can instantly release its full power." The ferocious expression on Chen Da's face faded away.
"Also, this thing consumes a lot of energy. I can only turn it on for ten minutes at a time. Any longer and there might be problems."
"Ten minutes?" Feng Zhongzheng and the rest felt slightly relieved seeing that the tentacles were retracted. However, they were a little confused when they heard this unit of time.
"It's this." Lu Sheng took out a round metal pocket watch. "This is a tool I made based on the time of day. It can divide a day into 24 hours. Each hour is 60 minutes, and each minute is 60 seconds. It's a brand new timer. "
Feng Zhongzheng and the rest looked at the ticking second hand. It felt like a brand new door was slowly opening up to them.
Although there were similar timers in this world, none of them were as stable as this one.
Lu Sheng put down the pocket watch and took out a few more.
"This is for everyone. Each of you has one. Only the core members can have one. I hope you won't spread it."
"Also, regarding the Moonsilver modification, there's a limit to the success rate. First, there must be enough Moonsilver from the Anomalies. Otherwise, even I can't succeed," Lu Sheng said in a deep voice.
Feng Zhongzheng, Lu Jianhua, and the other two looked at Chen Da. Some of them had pale faces, while others had gloomy expressions. However, Feng Zhongzheng was different from the others. Although he also had a shocked expression, his eyes were completely filled with pleasant surprise.
"In my opinion, this might be an opportunity for us to develop in the future!" He suddenly took a step forward, and there was a rare hint of generosity in his tone.
The red light in Lu Sheng's eyes slowly disappeared, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
With just a little guidance, the effect reached the level he wanted.
The Moonsilver was indeed a specialty of the place where the freaks resided. He didn\'t add any extra tricks to it. He merely used his own cells to devour and remove the Moonsilver\'s repellent and toxicity toward the human body before implanting it into Chen Da\'s body.
If there were any side effects, then the only one would be that the Moonsilver would have a strong devouring ability due to the cells in Lu Sheng's body. Everything that was devoured would become a part of Lu Sheng.
This was also one of the methods Lu Sheng used to devour the Abyss.
There was no doubt that the modification surgery was very dangerous. However, he had explained the risks to Chen Da before this, and Chen Da had agreed without hesitation.
However, they didn\'t know that Lu Sheng had simply taken a random material from the freaks and used it for the implantation. As for the effect, he had merely added some special formations and cells to the Moonsilver. That was all.
In fact, what really worked was the formation that he had implanted in the core that belonged to him.
The Moonsilver modification had a huge impact on Feng Zhongzheng and the others. After that, Chen Da allowed the other core members to touch the modified arm that he had implanted.
This incident had indeed caused quite a stir, but that was all.
Soon, everything became peaceful again.
Lu Sheng continued to drink tea and read information every day, while the other members continued to chat on their phones. They lived and had fun as usual.
However, a sense of belonging, which they had never felt before, quietly spread among the crowd.
Although the Moonsilver modification had a success rate, it still gave them an entrance and an opportunity to come into contact with another world. This shared secret made everyone feel even more united.
Lu Sheng had been waiting.
He didn\'t have to wait for long.
Soon, an accident made the members of the research society realize how precious power was.
…
…
In the third building other than the Anomaly News Tower and the teahouse.
Lu Sheng was in a dark reception room when he saw Zhuo Qingju who had been waiting outside the research society for two days.
Zhuo Qingju\'s hair was disheveled, and her face was dirty. Her face was bruised. She hadn\'t eaten for three days and had only drunk some dirty water from the gutter.
Ever since something happened to her family, she had been searching for the culprit without rest. Unfortunately … her family\'s wealth had been burned to the ground. She still hadn\'t found anything. She couldn\'t even guarantee her basic necessities.
"This is the Anomaly Research Society. It\'s not a place you want to be." Lu Sheng glanced at Lu Jianhua who was standing at the door and shook his head slightly.
"I know. I just want to beg you to modify me into an avenger who can defeat the freaks!" Zhuo Qingju\'s voice was cold and gloomy. Her throat was a little hoarse, but her tone gave off an emotionless numbness.
Lu Jianhua sighed behind her.
"When I found her, she was on the verge of death. She was starving and thirsty. I couldn\'t do anything about the Zhuo family when something so serious happened. If I hadn\'t discovered the problem during the investigation, I\'m afraid … "
"The Zhuo family\'s incident has something to do with the freaks?" Lu Sheng asked.
Lu Jianhua nodded.
Lu Sheng understood immediately. He pondered for a while before looking up at Zhuo Qingju.
"You have to think this through. If you\'re willing to join us and abide by the research society\'s confidentiality rules, I can modify you with Moonsilver. Also, although I don\'t know how you found out about this, I hope you won\'t spread the news about the Moonsilver modification. "
"I understand." Zhuo Qingju\'s eyes were burning with hatred and cold flames. Even for Lu Sheng, this pure flame of vengeance was rare.
He had rarely seen anyone with such a pure will for revenge.
"One more thing. To prevent the power from being misused, the research society will add some restrictions to your Moonsilver modification. There won\'t be any abnormalities with these restrictions, but if you do anything to harm the people or the research society, we won\'t hesitate to use these restrictions. I hope you understand, "Lu Sheng added.
He had made this clear when he was modifying Moonsilver with Chen Da.
"I understand." Zhuo Qingju nodded again. As long as she had power and a chance for revenge, she did not care about anything else.
"Alright, I understand." Lu Sheng understood the look in her eyes.
She was simply the best natural material. With her as the starting point, the research society\'s progress would be pushed forward seamlessly.
"Get someone to give her a bath first," Lu Sheng instructed.
Since the research society had many secrets now, he had allocated a lot of extra money to buy some young girls and young men with death contracts.
These children, who were no more than 11 or 12 years old, would become the research society\'s exclusive team in the future.
Lu Jianhua brought Zhuo Qingju out.
Lu Sheng also stood up and turned to stand by the window. He looked down at the dark night of the city.
"If everything goes according to plan, the research society\'s core members will gradually include some of these vengeful members …"
Zhuo Qingju would be a knife in his hand to smoothly speed up the research society\'s progress.
Two hours later, the preparation for Zhuo Qingju\'s modification officially began.
Because she had nothing left, Lu Sheng signed a subordinate contract with her in the name of the research society. She would be the price in exchange for the research society\'s support and modification.
Zhuo Yu obediently signed his name on the paper.
Feng Zhongzheng and the other core members also watched this ceremony with complicated expressions. They knew that from this moment on, Zhuo Qingju, who was originally a young girl like them, had officially become a member of the research society.
The modification surgery was also very successful. One of Zhuo Qingju\'s eyes and one of her legs were completely modified into Moonsilver structures.
The modification and implantation of the head was also a great attempt by the research society.
Fortunately, with Lu Sheng secretly making adjustments, the surgery was unexpectedly successful. The success rate was also increased to 80%.
After the modification, Zhuo Qingju recuperated for half a month before she eagerly went out to investigate the culprit.
Her entire family of more than 30 people was dismembered overnight. If she had not coincidentally been attending a poetry meet at a friend\'s house and escaped this calamity, she might not have been able to escape this fate either.
Therefore, after the modification was successful, Zhuo Qingju eagerly began to track down the culprit.
She returned every day to participate in martial arts training. Other than eating and drinking, she devoted the rest of her time to the process of investigating the murder case.
Although Zhuo Qingju\'s matter was kept strictly confidential, the truth could not be concealed. Moreover, most of the people in the research society were ordinary young masters and mistresses. Therefore, the city soon learned of the strange modification in the research society.
In just four days, Lu Sheng met four people who came kneeling down and begging to join the research society.
At this time, Chen Da, who had gone to deal with the Freak, returned.
He was covered in injuries, but he had brought back some Moonsilver metal. At the same time, he also brought back a few orphaned distant relatives of Minister Song.
These people also successfully joined the research society. Lu Sheng gave them an irrevocable contract. From then on, they would forever be members of the research society.
Soon, Lu Sheng selected another four people from the tragic survivors like Zhuo Qingju. He used the Moonsilver that Chen Da brought back to modify them so that they could return to take revenge.
Some of them succeeded. Some failed and never came back.
After successfully bringing back more Moonsilver, Lu Sheng continued to select new people for modification.
These modified people did not feel any restrictions. The powerful power of the Moonsilver gave them strength and speed that far exceeded that of ordinary people. Even if they were injured, their bodies could recover rapidly.
When they encountered life-threatening danger, the Moonsilver would even automatically block and counterattack.
