Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

Chapter 461 - 455: The Dean Who Loves Scientific Research

Emperor Dragon City.

Laboratory.

"Is everything going smoothly?" the Director asked upon seeing Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan went to take on the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon, and the Director wasn’t worried at all.

In this world, there was practically no one who could rival Lin Yuan.

Taking on the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon was a piece of cake for him.

Lin Yuan nodded, responding, "A trivial task, nothing much."

With that, Lin Yuan took the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon out of his little world and handed it over to the Director.

Lin Yuan suppressed the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon with his Power of the World, and now the creature was reduced to about half a meter in length, as thick as an arm.

"Let go of me!"

"You all, let go of me!" the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon roared angrily after being taken out.

Without any word, Lin Yuan slapped the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon across the head, leaving it dazed and disoriented.

"Cooperate obediently, and you might live a bit longer!"

"Try shouting again, and I’ll skin you alive!" Lin Yuan threatened.

Clearly frightened by Lin Yuan’s slap, the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon dared not make a sound.

The World Honored looked at the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon with a treasure-like gaze and said, "If we figure out this creature, we essentially understand these seven plagues."

"By then, we can counter the World Honored’s forces using these seven plagues."

"This time, we must make the World Honored lift a stone only to drop it on his own foot."

Upon hearing Lin Yuan and the Director’s conversation, the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon slumped down as if to die, limp like a noodle.

What did he hear? Dealing with the World Honored!

Having descended from the Mysterious World to the Real World, he was all too aware of what those words meant.

Such a confidential matter against the World Honored—is it something for a small fry like him to hear?

Even though he knew he had become an experimental subject, with an eighty percent chance of not surviving.

The more he knew, the quicker he’d die—dragging his death out a few more days seemed worthwhile.

Thus, the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon decided to play dead.

Alas, playing dead wouldn’t work!

Soon after Lin Yuan and the Director had some conversation, they began their study of the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon.

"Let’s first extract a vial of blood for research," said the Director, controlling a machine to extract the creature’s blood.

"Crack!"

However, when the syringe, under control, was jabbed into the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon’s body, it was shattered by the scales.

The Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon was at a Tier Four Peak, and besides a freak like Lin Yuan, few could handle him.

Although suppressed by Lin Yuan’s Little World Power, his tough body remained.

"Slap!"

Lin Yuan again gave a solid smack to the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon’s head, cursing, "Stupid eel, you dare resist!"

"If you don’t want to die, drop your defenses and cooperate with our research."

Nevertheless, the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon, even while Lin Yuan beat him, refused to drop his defenses.

The Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon wasn’t stupid; he knew his only value was in the Director’s research.

The longer the research took, the longer he lived.

If they figured him out, he’d have no value, right?

Moreover, since he was already there, even if he didn’t cooperate, Lin Yuan couldn’t kill him—it’d be merely some flesh wounds.

"Hold on!"

"I must hold on!"

"There must be a way to escape!" the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon thought to himself.

The Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon just wanted to stall for time and find a chance to escape.

He couldn’t believe Lin Yuan could watch him day in and day out.

As soon as Lin Yuan left, he’d have a sliver of hope to escape.

Seeing the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon was uncooperative, the Director said, "Looks like we’ll need to specially make a syringe for him."

"Even a Ghost Alloy-made syringe couldn’t pierce his scales."

At this point, Lin Yuan seemed to remember something and said to the Director, "No need, I have something we can try."

Saying this, Lin Yuan took out a mosquito jade carving, radiating with colorful light.

This item was a gift from Kong Mengmeng during the Life and Death Trial Arena.

It was a Magical Treasure transformed by Daoist Wen, and it packed quite a punch.

Daoist Wen himself was outstanding among Tier Fours, especially with the Peacock Great Ming King’s blessings.

Using it against the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon, it should be fine in eight out of ten cases.

However, after obtaining the Magical Treasure, Lin Yuan hadn’t had the chance to use it.

Primarily because there hadn’t been an opportunity to do so.

Shortly after getting it, with Elder Bai and others’ help, Lin Yuan managed to advance to Tier Three.

If he were at the Tier Four Peak, the Daoist Wen’s Magical Treasure would indeed be helpful.

But at Tier Three, it was merely redundant.

Now, it coincidentally came in handy.

Daoist Wen specialized in blood-sucking, and his mosquito mouth was exceptionally hard, piercing through the scales of the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon without question.

By letting Daoist Wen extract the Dragon’s blood and then vomit it out—

This way, the task was perfectly resolved.

Lin Yuan woke up Daoist Wen and told him his duty.

Upon hearing he was to suck blood carrying seven plagues and then expel it, Daoist Wen protested vehemently.

Unfortunately, his protest was of no effect.

Having turned into a Magical Treasure, Daoist Wen had no right to object.

From the Director’s gaze, Lin Yuan could tell he seemed interested not only in studying the Seven-headed Evil Flood Dragon but also in Daoist Wen.

Or rather, the Director wanted to study the five-colored energy that turned Daoist Wen into a Magical Treasure.

Seeing through the Director’s intentions, Lin Yuan directly lent Daoist Wen to the Director to aid in his study.

Though Daoist Wen was of no use to Lin Yuan, it was, after all, a gift from Kong Mengmeng.

Therefore, he could only lend it, not give it to the Director.

In the days that followed, Lin Yuan didn’t venture to the Mysterious World.

He was busy leading Meng Zhang, Ling Guang, Zhi Ming, Jian Bing, and other experts in capturing Tier Four Gourmands worldwide.

After capturing these Gourmands, they turned them over to the Director for transformation; transformed, they awaited deployment in the World Honored’s territories.

Don’t think capturing Gourmands was a simple task.

Capturing Gourmands also had its rules.

The first rule was to capture the big ones and leave the small ones.

What does capturing the big ones and leaving the small ones mean?

It means only capturing Tier Four Gourmands, leaving those below to continue growing.

Gourmands devour everything they see, consuming many Evil Spirits living in the wild.

For Lin Yuan and his team, this was a good thing.

After all, there were too few powerful Life Pattern Masters among humans to spare for these Evil Spirits.

The appearance of Gourmands brought more disaster to the Evil Spirits than it did to humanity after descending to the Real World.
