Chapter 146 Chapter 208 Chapter 209 The Characteristics of the Second-Phase Vampire Thunder Warrior or the Surprise Prepared by Sten

At this moment, Carl's figure suddenly walked out of the laboratory.

With an approving look on his face, he nodded slightly to Selina and said, "Thank you for your hard work along the way."

Carl has always been generous in praising his hard-working subordinates...ahem, excellent employees.

Moreover, whether on the spiritual or material level, their requirements will be met to the greatest extent.

After all, “If you want a horse to run well, you have to let it eat more grass first,” right?
“Ah, Boss…”

After seeing Karl, Selina's azure eyes suddenly burst into a fanatical color. She immediately puffed out her small chest and said with an extremely firm expression:
"It's not hard. This is what I should do."

Then, when Selina was about to report something, a figure suddenly forced its way in front of her.

Samuel Stern reported excitedly, like a child expecting praise from his father:

"Boss, we've successfully used the [New Super Soldier Serum 2.0 - Vampire Version] on ten soldiers who passed the screening."

"We are currently monitoring their physical condition and any subsequent adverse reactions for a month around the clock..."

Then Samuel Stern pointed to several soldiers in the isolation cabin who were undergoing systematic and comprehensive testing, and continued to introduce them to Carl:
"The [Super Factors] extracted from the blood of the vampire elders have a very ideal effect after being fused with the [New Super Soldier Serum].

So far, none of the ten test subjects have experienced any adverse reactions.”

"Furthermore, compared to the first-phase Thunder Warriors, these ten individuals in the second phase have all seen significant improvements in strength, speed, endurance, and other aspects."

"According to incomplete statistics, the comprehensive comparison of various physical qualities of the ten people in the second phase is at least 1.5 times higher than that of the ten people in the first phase."

"However, if the test is conducted at night, this value will increase by 2 to 3 times, or even higher..."

"Oh?"

When Carl heard this, a look of interest immediately appeared on his face, and he took the data and started to read it.

But Selina, who was standing beside him, was deeply shocked.

You know, she had witnessed with her own eyes the performance of the first batch of Thunder Warriors in actual combat.

If she had to describe it in one word, it would be "unreasonable"!

Selina still remembers the scene of "tearing the Japanese apart with bare hands" vividly.

But who would have thought that the second phase of Thunder Warriors, which had not yet completed testing, was actually 2 to 3 times stronger than the first phase. Isn't this a bit too unscientific?
If we talk about the Thunder Warriors in a period, each one represents the extreme state that humans can reach.

Then the second-phase Thunder Warriors have undoubtedly broken this limit and "evolved" to a level beyond humans and ordinary vampires.

Besides.

Selena also noticed this from relevant experimental data.

Under the powerful amplification of [New Super Soldier Serum 2.0 - Vampire Version].

Almost all of the ten Thunder Warriors who underwent the test in the second phase "awakened" their night vision abilities.

Even in complete darkness, they still have a longer visual range and clearer vision than ordinary people.

It can even accurately locate the target by sensing changes in an individual's body temperature at night.

In addition, the sense of smell of some Thunder Warriors has been greatly enhanced in certain aspects.

The smell of different blood can be detected in the air several kilometers away.

It is no wonder that Dr. Samuel Stern concluded that "the second-phase Thunder Warriors are more than three times stronger than the first-phase Thunder Warriors in night combat."

Nowadays, even Selina is not sure that she can defeat a vampire thunder warrior in a one-on-one situation.

Then, Selina's gaze followed Carl down and found the special prompts at the bottom of the report.

[Currently verified feature 1: Some test subjects have shown signs of being able to accelerate the healing of their own injuries and regenerate damaged body tissues by sucking blood.

In the event of a severe external blow, such as a common cut, fracture, or gunshot wound, the body will heal rapidly within a few minutes or hours, depending on the severity of the injury.

However, the experimental subjects did not show any vampire traits such as bloodthirstiness or feeding on blood. They simply used blood-sucking as a special means of self-preservation in extreme situations.

[Feature 1 Experimental Conclusion: Based on the data from the extreme state, the self-healing ability currently displayed by the test subject is not yet sufficient to support the regeneration of limbs or torso after loss... Therefore, if the test subject suffers a fatal injury, they will still die! !]

[Currently verified feature 2: All test subjects exposed to direct sunlight and ultraviolet rays did not suffer from burns, self-immolation, or any other negative effects;
When tested with silver weapons, special wooden nails, crosses, and other special objects, they showed no fear or rejection.

[Feature 2 Experimental Inference: Since the test subject's abilities originate from scientific transformation, rather than supernatural vampire bloodline inheritance, the test subject is not a true vampire and does not possess the corresponding weaknesses... However, they also cannot create their own lower-level followers through bloodsucking.]

Σ(⊙▽⊙“a???

The more Selina looked, the more frightened she became.

Ah this?

This is simply comparable to my own "Daywalker", okay?
At this moment, a strong sense of crisis suddenly arose in the heart of the Moon Goddess.

Will I and the [Wizards' Council] be replaced by these specially modified Thunder Warriors of the second phase in the future?

Selina immediately made up her mind.

No.

Next, I have to work twice as hard to prove to the Boss that my value and that of the [Wizards' Guild] are irreplaceable.

Come on, Selena, you can do it... Oli Gei!!!

Just as Miss Vampire was cheering herself up in her heart, Carl glanced at the report and asked thoughtfully, as if he had thought of something:
"Can warriors who have successfully awakened their blood-sucking trait acquire the memories of others by sucking their blood?"

"Uh...this aspect has not been tested yet."

Samuel Stern's body trembled suddenly, as if he had done something wrong. He quickly recorded what he had just said, and then said carefully:

"As for the specific situation, I'm afraid we can only draw detailed conclusions after further testing and experiments."

Karl nodded in satisfaction when he heard this, without any intention of blaming the other party.

In his opinion, Samuel Stern was a genius among geniuses in scientific research. Often, he only needed to provide an idea, and he would turn it into a specific experimental project.

And Samuel Stern's work enthusiasm has reached an abnormal level.

He actually treated the laboratory as his own home. Such a holy body of cattle and horses... ahem, diligent, dedicated and excellent employee is truly the backbone force necessary for corporate development, project innovation, business expansion...!

without any exaggeration.

Without Samuel Stern's help, Subspace Group's progress in technological research and innovation would be at least 5 to 10 years behind where it is now!

In this way, Carl naturally would not be able to make drastic external moves like he is now.

This can be seen.

Carl's early plan to recruit outstanding talents was so far-sighted!

Just as Carl was about to leave the lab with Selina, he heard Samuel Stern continue to report:
"But... Boss, during the initial process of using genetic screening technology to select experimental subjects, I accidentally discovered a strange phenomenon."

"That is, the older the experimental subject, the lower the probability of fusion of the [Supernatural Factor]."

"After fusing with these people's cells, the [Supernatural Factor] quickly lost its effectiveness or uncontrollably decomposed... Some older test subjects even experienced severe rejection."

"However, this specific phenomenon is less obvious in relatively young individuals, and both fusion and stability are significantly improved."

At this point, Samuel Stern paused briefly, then looked at Carl with a burning gaze, "So, I suggest... starting the [Young Soldier Program] that you mentioned earlier, Boss, in advance."

"Ok?"

Karl felt a sense of alert when he heard this.

He immediately used [Mind Chain] to check the other party's true thoughts.

After confirming that the other party simply wanted to create a more powerful [Thunder Warrior], and not use those teenagers to do some weird experiments, he felt relieved.

The reason why Carl was so cautious was not because he didn't trust Samuel Stern... Well, okay, he did find it difficult to trust this fanatic.

Who could have made him see in the guy in front of him a character very similar to Orochimaru, the kind of crazy potential that would do anything for the sake of experiment?

Carl did not rush to reply, but turned his head to look at the second-phase soldiers in the isolation cabin.

I found that they did have one common similarity, which was that they were generally around 20 years old.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "What's the failure rate?"

Samuel Stern didn't even need the report to blurt out the relevant statistics, "In this genetic screening alone, among the 35 people over 28 years old, the fusion failure rate was 100%;

For 25 people aged 35 to 49, the fusion success rate was 18.4%;

20 people between the ages of 25 and 32, with a fusion success rate of 62.5%!

“There’s such a big difference?”

A rare look of surprise appeared on Carl's face.

He also didn't expect that the failure rate of fusion of [Super Factor] in adults would be so high.

Looking at the group of people over 35 who "died" collectively in the initial screening stage, Carl couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

I’ve only heard that in the workplace, 35 years old is a hurdle that many middle-aged people cannot overcome. How come this has spread to the field of scientific research?
Does the [Supernatural Factor] also think that their lives have no potential?
But now, Carl has to re-examine this issue.

If it is true as Samuel Stern speculated, the younger the person, the higher the success rate of fusing the [Supernatural Factor].

So now is indeed the best time to promote the [Young Soldier Program].

With the large-scale expansion of the military force in the future, we can not only select those individuals who can perfectly combine with the [Supernatural Factor], but also form the prototypes of different Thunder Warrior regiments based on the different abilities they acquire.

This definitely has more advantages than disadvantages for Carl's overseas expansion plan... Of course, it's a bit expensive!
"I will have Zemo put matters related to the [Young Soldier Program] on the agenda as soon as possible."

Carl sorted out his thoughts and continued, "But before that, I hope you can use the [Supernatural Factor] extracted from Alexander Corvinus and the werewolf ancestor William,
We will conduct a more detailed genetic screening experiment and submit a more convincing experimental report."

In such important decisions, Carl always strives for precise targets and rigorous data.

If the conclusions obtained later remain unchanged.

Then, after the conscription plan is completed, he will officially give the order to start building the initial team of the Thunder Warrior Corps.

"clear!!"

Samuel Stern patted his head confidently.

"Dr. Stern, thank you for your hard work."

Carl encouraged him generously, "I look forward to the day when you successfully create an indestructible Thunder Warrior regiment."

Just before the elevator door was about to close, Samuel Stern's eager voice squeezed in through the crack of the door.

"Oh, by the way, Boss, my staff just reported that your office has been renovated. I've prepared a surprise for you there, and I'm sure you'll like it..."

Carl thought about it, immediately changed his itinerary, and pressed the button for the 99th floor.

He also wanted to see what Samuel Stern had installed in his office after more than a month of secret renovations under the pretext of modifying the supporting facilities of the [Sky Energy Shield Defense System].
Ding--

Soon, the elevator door opened, and Carl and Selina arrived at the chairman's office on the 99th floor, one after the other.

Although the luxurious interior decoration style has changed, it is still far from enough to make Carl's eyes light up with surprise.

There must be some other special arrangements.

But then, the blonde secretary who had been waiting in the office for a long time pointed to the chair placed at the main seat of the office, which was completely covered by a huge red silk cloth and said:
"Boss, Dr. Stern specifically told me that I must personally take down this red silk after you return... He said it's a surprise for you!"

Karl didn't say anything, but took a step forward, grabbed a corner of the red silk and pulled it down hard.

Swah——

Facing the sunlight pouring in from the window, a golden throne made of pure gold appeared before everyone.

Carl:? ? ?
