Arlen slowly moved his eyes away from the peephole. The coldness from the door made his eyes ache. He rubbed his eyelids. From what he could see, the world behind the door was dark and gloomy with a sense of dread and blood.
His luck was not bad. The world with this background seemed to be inclined to fall into the "abyss," so … it should be easy to accept the embrace of the Mother Nest. Moreover, Smoker seemed to have come into contact with the "native powerhouses" of that world. Perhaps, he already had some clues.
The next thing he needed was time to ferment!
"The flow of time in the two worlds is different!" Yarlin's eyes shone with a dark light. Through the "cat's eye," he saw fragments of accelerated time. The falling leaves, the deviation of the tree's shadow on the ground, the mottled traces of moonfrost between the tree crevices, and although he did not know what exactly was being said, the frequency of the mouth opening and closing … Yarlin's preliminary judgment was that the flow of time in the two worlds was seven to one.
That was to say, seven days in the world behind the "door" was only one day in the world he was in. Although there might be some slight differences, it should be roughly the ratio.
…
Alabasta.
In the medical department, Dr. Hook, who had "developed" the Green Poison Antidote, had made a name for himself and was on his way to the peak of his life. At this moment, he was sitting in his laboratory with a smug look on his face. Test tubes filled with green liquid were placed horizontally on the experiment table. He picked up a test tube and looked at the brown particles mixed in the green liquid. His eyes were blurred with intoxication.
"It's so beautiful!"
Although he had been unable to test the true composition of the reagent and the principle of the antidote, this did not stop Dr. Hook from indulging in it.
Drip …
The test tube was crushed, and the liquid in it flowed down the leather gloves into a line of water and splashed on the ground. Dr. Hook turned his head abruptly. An unfamiliar man in a red combat suit and a white cape was standing beside the experiment table, staring at him with cold and emotionless eyes.
"Dr. Hook, please come with me."
As the unquestionable voice fell, Dr. Hook's consciousness blurred. When he opened his eyes, it was already the night of the next day.
Lying on the cold porcelain floor, he opened his eyes and saw huge liquid tanks. Through the glass, he could see a naked body soaking in each of the liquid tanks. The surface of the body was filled with all kinds of needles.
Next to one of the liquid tanks stood a burly man with a metal helmet and blond hair, staring coldly at him. "Dr. Hook, I'm sorry to invite you here in such a rude way. Nice to meet you. I'm Vincent Mock Judge."
"The toxicological structure of this Green Poison is too complex and profound. From what I see, other than the person who created this poison, no one in this world can create an antidote in such a short time." Judge stared at the liquid in the test tube with shining eyes. He exclaimed, "Dr. Hook, can you tell me who sent this antidote to you?"
"What are you talking about? I don't understand you at all … "Dr. Hook's face turned white, and his tone stuttered as he defended himself.
"I've checked your information. You're just a normal person. You don't have this kind of talent at all, whether it's creating this terrible poison or developing the corresponding antidote." With a flick of Judge's hand, the test tube fell to the ground and the bright green liquid splashed on the ground. Some brown spots in the green liquid were spreading and infecting strangely.
Dr. Hook's heart suddenly trembled, and Judge's next words made him fall into an ice cave: "The brown spots are very similar to the research results of an old friend of mine. His name is Adams. I don't know, can you tell me where he is?"
"Gulp!"
Dr. Hook swallowed hard.
"Your expression tells me that you've seen him. Very well, I can tell you very responsibly …" Judge squatted down and looked down at Dr. Hook, who was shivering on the ground: "You just won a life for yourself."
On the other side.
The lavender gas drifted silently into the laboratory through the doors and windows. The windows of the laboratory were open, but the door was locked from the inside. The lights in the empty laboratory were on, and the centrifuge and some experimental equipment were still running, making a "buzzing" sound, but the laboratory was empty.
There were some broken test tubes on the ground, and the green mixed with brown liquid had evaporated and solidified on the ground. A large part of the reagents on the experiment table was obviously missing.
"Dr. Hook is gone!"
Adams stared at the metal door that was locked from the inside. The laboratory was located on the top floor, and Dr. Hook did not have the ability to jump out of the window by himself.
He originally planned to make full use of Dr. Hook's value after the political situation in Alabasta stabilized. Then, he would find a suitable opportunity to make Dr. Hook disappear from the world. But now, he seemed to be a step too late. Dr. Hook had disappeared.
"He noticed that I was going to kill him. No, that idiot is intoxicated by the false reputation and can't extricate himself. He didn't leave by himself, there should be someone else …" Adams narrowed his eyes slightly, and his electronic eyes scanned the entire laboratory, then waved his hand, and the air was immediately filled with gas.
With a gentle rub of his index finger, the gas was ignited, and with a bang, the explosion burst open the metal door of the laboratory, and a terrifying sea of fire engulfed the laboratory.
The controlled gas spread, and the entire laboratory and half of the medical department were burned into ruins. Two hours later, the fire was extinguished, and the charred bodies were carried out, but it was difficult to piece together the shape of the bodies, let alone identify the identity of the deceased.
Afterward, an accident report of the "gas" leak explosion appeared on Naphtali Vivi's desk. Vivi opened the report and glanced at it, then closed the report and said: "Dr. Hook was killed in the gas explosion, and there was no trace of his body left."
"Dead?" Wapol glanced at the report and did not seem to be surprised. He said in a cold voice: "Who knows if he's dead, or was secretly taken away by the spies of the world government?"
"I know the style of the world government. This kind of top scientific talent, the world government will not let them wander outside of their control. If they're not secretly executed, then they're secretly imprisoned." Wapol sneered and concluded the matter. After all, the world government would not come to the court to confront him.
