"Wait, don't leave, let me introduce you."

"This is Professor Wang from the Flame Country, an authority in mechanical dynamics. We spent 'a great deal of resources' to 'invite' Professor Wang here."

"This is a well-known exotic beast expert in the base; he is very familiar with the physiological structure of exotic beasts."

"He should be able to help you."

Professor Wang glanced up and down at Ye Bai. The person in front of him was covered with a thick beard, but his eyes were clear and bright.

He seems very focused when doing experiments.

Very soon, Professor Wang started chatting with Ye Bai in technical jargon.

No matter what questions Professor Wang asked Ye Bai, he could respond quickly.

Moreover, having read the notes left by Dr. Jubino, Ye Bai was well aware of the pitfalls in Professor Wang's experiments.

Seeing Ye Bai pointedly identify the errors in his experiment, Professor Wang also realized that Ye Bai indeed had considerable skills.

"Alright, let's proceed with the experiment as soon as possible."

Professor Wang quickly dealt with a couple of bites of food and dragged Ye Bai straight to the laboratory.

Duros, rubbing his grumbling stomach, had no choice but to pack some food and follow.

He was really unfortunate.

Ye Bai stepped into the laboratory, which was filled with technology and sophistication.

The Burrowing Rats used for the experiment were placed in a corner of the lab.

They were all sprayed with sleeping gas and were quietly asleep.

"Look at these notes."

With Duros' consent, Professor Wang handed the notebook to Ye Bai.

Ye Bai took one look and knew that the critical steps had been erased by Dr. Jubino.

With these misleading notes, the core direction was wrong. How could the experiment possibly succeed?

Dr. Jubino was clever enough to make the notes look authentic, almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

And in the field of mechanical dynamics, no one could match him, not even Professor Wang could discern the truth.

If Ye Bai hadn't held the complete version of the notes, he'd have been fooled too.

Nevertheless, Ye Bai couldn't let the experiment succeed because then the Beautiful Country would learn the technique.

Dr. Jubino resented the Beautiful Country and naturally didn't want them to acquire it.

"I'm not very knowledgeable about mechanical dynamics."

"So I can't understand this notebook."

After putting down the notebook, Ye Bai muttered.

"However, I think maybe we should proceed step by step."

Proceed step by step?

Professor Wang and Duros thought carefully for a moment.

Something seemed to flash in their minds, but they couldn't grasp it.

"What I mean is, perhaps the speed of the experiment is too fast."

"We need the nanorobots and exotic beasts to first achieve a symbiotic relationship."

"Once the exotic beasts adapt to the nanorobots, we can gradually increase the number of nanorobots until the exotic beasts are transformed into steel exotic beasts."

Ye Bai suggested a plan.

Of course, Ye Bai wasn't certain about whether this plan would pass.

He was mainly buying time.

"Using this plan will consume a lot of time."

"I'm not needed here now, I'll go back to my room and rest."

In fact, Ye Bai had not yet found a port to steal the intranet data and didn't actually know where his room was.

He was just making a strategic retreat.

"I'm sorry, Dr. Iba, as I mentioned to you earlier, due to the confidentiality of the experiment, you must stay in this laboratory."

"The lab has a resting bedroom where you can sleep."

"Unless the experiment is complete, you cannot leave this place."

Duros spoke with an official tone.

Ye Bai had no choice but to reluctantly stay in the laboratory.

"Then I'll rest first, let me know if you need anything."

Ye Bai followed the instructions and entered the room. He inspected it and found there was indeed an internal port.

Without thinking, he closed the door and pulled out a laptop from the Pet Beast Space.

Connecting to the port, Ye Bai quickly tapped on the computer.

A progress bar appeared.

He was breaching the base's firewall.

Ye Bai exploited a bug in the firewall to successfully steal a lot of data.

The research conducted here was no less significant than that at the Lake Bottom Laboratory.

However, their focus was slightly different; they were studying the gene combinations of different exotic beasts.

The aim was to create powerful exotic beasts.

There were already quite a few successful cases, but researchers soon discovered a problem.

The exotic beasts created through gene combinations had a fatal flaw: they couldn't reproduce.

Just like the ligers and tigons in the real world.

Moreover, their lifespans were very short, lasting no more than ten years.

The people at the Undersea Base preserved these experimental records, planning to mass-produce clones of the fiercest exotic beasts as disposable assets.

This way, in the event of a great war, they could minimize their losses.

Ye Bai chuckled.

"Let me give you something to worry about; you'll be busy."

"Which exotic beasts should I clone?"

Ye Bai selected the Critical Crab and the Shark Wolf from the exotic beast photos.

The Critical Crab was a crab with a hard exoskeleton covered with menacing muscles.

It was fast-moving and adept at using its fists to teach enemies a lesson.

Ye Bai appreciated that this creature was skilled in using brute force, and it had a very aggressive temper, ready to fight at a moment's notice.

As for the Shark Wolf, it was an exotic beast, a combination of a deep-sea demon shark and a shadow wolf.

It possessed the sharp teeth of a deep-sea demon shark, developed muscles, and gills that allowed it to breathe underwater.

Due to its shark lineage, the Shark Wolf disliked environments lacking water.

Therefore, it would recklessly leap into the sea, tearing apart any exotic beast that blocked its path.

After selecting these two exotic beasts, Ye Bai pressed the manufacturing button.

In the Central Laboratory, the researchers were busy.

They were conducting various experiments.

Unnoticed, the cloning machinery activated.

The frozen eggs in the cold storage started to rapidly grow under the machine's power.

Soon enough, the Critical Crab punched through the culture dish, and climbed out, all dripping wet.

A few yellow-skinned researchers looked up and saw this ferocious Critical Crab and quietly stepped back a few steps.

"Boss, we should make a run for it."

"You don't mess with an angry Critical Crab."

"We're all unarmed; staying here wouldn't serve any purpose."

"I want to return to the Flame Country, not die on foreign soil."

One of them mumbled.

"Don't be afraid, get down, I've calculated it; the Critical Crab can't bend over."

"Anyone shorter than its body won't be attacked."

The three quietly lay on the ground.

When the others noticed the Critical Crab, it was already too late.

The robot on guard was instantly beheaded by the Critical Crab's punch.

And soon, more Critical Crabs burst out from culture dishes.

"What the hell is going on, shut down the culture dishes."

"The whole program was locked, how did it start?"

"Quick, shut down the program."

The person in charge of guarding the Central Laboratory summoned a Giant Clawed Mantis.

This mantis charged in, wielding its blade arms.

With just a few swipes, it swiftly severed the Critical Crab's claws.

But before the Giant Clawed Mantis could celebrate, a whooshing sound came.

The Giant Clawed Mantis was punched and sent flying.

It crashed heavily into the wall, leaving web-like cracks.

An exceptionally large Critical Crab walked out.

It was the one that had attacked earlier.

"Trouble, they've managed to produce an elite Critical Crab."

The guard started getting anxious; this creature's combat power was terrifying.

"No, the equipment is out of control, continuously producing Shark Wolves and Critical Crabs."

The chief researcher was wiping cold sweat, unable to shut down the cloning machinery.

"Useless, what's the point of having you around."

"Quick, cut off the culture fluid supply."

The guard shouted.

Since the equipment couldn't be stopped, cutting off the culture fluid supply was the logical solution.
