Chapter 766: Chapter 766 – Experiment 1

“Are there any more of her friends here?” Caitlin looked at Chen Heng and asked, “She’s still alive. Maybe she can hold on for a while.” Chen Heng shook his head.

During the conversation yesterday, Chen Heng understood the situation with Aimer. Although she was a princess, she was completely forced to come here. There was no one around to serve her, let alone friends. Moreover, with Aimer’s current appearance, even her friends wouldn’t be able to recognize her.

“No? Then it’s a bit troublesome and could only be getting rid of directly.” Caitlin already knew Chen Heng’s answer from his expression and couldn’t help but shake her head a.

Getting rid of it…

Chen Heng looked into the distance. Before he came, he had deliberately learned about the entire experiment process from Grissom. So, he naturally knew what Caitlin meant.

Caitlin’s so-called ‘get rid of’ was to directly throw a person aside and let him die on his own. If he did that, the final result was doomed. Most likely, he would die. Moreover, he would most likely be tortured before he died— the pain of a bloodline backlash.

Chen Heng’s gaze shifted to focus on Aimer. On the stretcher, Aimer seemed to have maintained a certain level of consciousness, and her entire body was slightly trembling.

She seemed to be in extreme panic from the subtle movement of her limbs. She seemed to be in great pain and unease. Yet, no one cared. Whether it was Caitlin or the others, they did not care.

Around them, people like Chen Heng were also watching from the side with cold expressions. Even though their hearts were palpitating, they didn’t feel pity but were more afraid and worried about themselves. These were all royalty. Perhaps in their eyes, the so-called pity was not necessary.

Chen Heng sighed and said, “Put her down. I’ll take care of it.” He said softly, looking at Caitlin, “She doesn’t have much time left. So let her have a good time in these last few days.”

“Then I’ll leave it to you.” Caitlin looked at Chen Heng with surprise but didn’t say anything and just smiled and nodded. Then, she instructed someone to carry Aimer directly to Chen Heng’s room.

“Be careful.” Before she left, Caitlin specifically reminded him, “The blood in her body is very unstable after the experiment failed and may even collapse and turn into a monster at any time.”

“I understand.” Chen Heng nodded and then returned to his room.

He carefully carried Aimer and put her on his bed. During this process, Aimer’s body was still trembling, and an uncontrollable fear surged from her heart.

“It’s alright.” Chen Heng caressed her forehead and comforted softly, “It’ll pass very soon.”

As he spoke, he used his spiritual power to quietly comfort her body, trying to ease her pain as much as possible. This method seemed to have a certain effect. After a while, Aimer’s body stopped shaking and began to calm down as if her emotions had gradually stabilized.

Chen Heng fed her with some medicine to ease her pain, then sat quietly at the side and rested with his eyes closed.

“I… I…” Aimer’s weak voice sounded.

She lay on Chen Heng’s bed and struggled to speak. “Will I die?”

“Yes, if nothing unexpected happens.” Chen Heng nodded. “I can give you a quick death if necessary…”

At this point, this was all he could do. As for the experiment he had done for Grissom, Chen Heng did not have the conditions to do it. Moreover, Grissom’s situation was very different from Aimer’s.

Although Grissom had also suffered a backlash from the experiment’s failure, he survived by relying on himself. He had already gone through the most difficult period, and his situation had stabilized. Only then could he attempt the experiment.

However, Aimer did not have the conditions. The experiment had failed, and the blood in her body was boiling. She was on the verge of collapse, which was an extreme situation. Even Chen Heng couldn’t do anything about it. The only thing he could do was to settle her corpse.

That’s not right…

As per Chen Heng’s usual style, he would most likely devour Aimer’s corpse as nourishment after she died. After all, this was a royal and even a direct descendant of the Gilna Royal Family. It could be a valuable resource for Chen Heng.

Beside him, Aimer no longer struggled to speak, but her body continued to tremble. Chen Heng could feel the fear in her heart. Chen Heng clearly felt that kind of emotional power. This princess had an extremely strong desire to survive, which was extremely rare.

Chen Heng sighed and looked at her, “You might not necessarily die.”

“Three days.” He said, “The condition of your body will stabilize after three days. Then, if there’s a chance, I can help you with the surgery. Maybe you can return to your previous appearance.”

“Really?” Aimer’s voice sounded again, still trembling.

“It’s up to you whether you believe it or not.” Chen Heng said softly, “Isn’t it still a glimmer of hope? You must work hard and get through this hurdle for this glimmer of hope.”

He closed his eyes and returned to silence. The spacious room returned to its usual calm. Not until a long time later that Aimer’s voice sounded again.

“Thank you…” After receiving Chen Heng’s reply, her clarity seemed to have stabilized.

Then, no one in the room spoke again.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. There were gradually fewer people around them, and all joined the experiment. However, although there were quite many people who joined the experiment, only a few of them were able to return. Most of them turned into corpses when they returned. Only a few were like Aimer, lying there motionlessly, quietly waiting for death to come.

At this point, Chen Heng did not care about the experiment itself but was thinking about the whereabouts of the corpses. This experiment gathered a large number of royal family members.

After the experiment’s failures, the royal family members’ corpses were piled up somewhere, which was undoubtedly a huge fortune. It was even more so for Chen Heng, who could be considered a good resource.

‘If I could devour them…’ This thought flashed through his mind.

He had already set his sights on the failed ones. However, he was not in a hurry. The most important thing now was the experiment before him. As long as his experiment succeeded, Chen Heng’s status within the King’s Council would significantly increase. Then, he could use Jameson to get his hands on the corpses.

It was Chen Heng’s turn to undergo the experiment on the third day. He stood up calmly and prepared to leave the room without much pressure. Before he left, he looked at Aimer, who was still lying there quietly.

Two days had passed, and her condition seemed to have stabilized quite a bit. Flesh and blood squirming non-stop on her body had stabilized and no longer expanded. The overall situation was no longer deteriorating.

However, this was it. At this moment, due to the experiment’s failure, not only was Aimer’s royal bloodline on the verge of collapse, she was even worse than a mortal. Her body was immovable, no different from a vegetative state. She could still speak but could no longer get up. She even needed someone to help her with her daily meals.

She was completely different from before. If it was a normal person in this state, they might as well just die. However, Aimer had a strong will to survive. She persevered and never gave up until now. After taking one last look at Aimer, Chen Heng calmly and quietly walked out of the room.

Caitlin was already standing outside the door as if she had been waiting here for a while.

“How are you feeling now?” Caitlin looked at Chen Heng and asked with a smile on her face.

Chen Heng was, after all, one of their own compared to the others, so his treatment was much better. However, the others who participated in the experiment were all taken away.

Many had a mental breakdown and even attacked Caitlin and the others, wanting to escape from this place. Nonetheless, they were subdued by Caitlin and the others in the end.

“How troublesome,” Caitlin complained, looking at the mess around them.

“I don’t feel anything special.” Chen Heng said, “Probably just looking forward to it.”

“Looking forward?”

Kalina smiled. “The others wouldn’t be looking forward to it. So why are you like this?”

“Sooner or later, we’ll have to face things. So, why don’t we start earlier?” Chen Heng shook his head, “The earlier the result, the better for everyone, right?”

“That’s the logic.” Caitlin said, “Do you think you can succeed?”

“I don’t know. Maybe.” Chen Heng said calmly, “But if I fail, please give me a quick death. For Princess Aimer in my room, give her a quick death too.”

“No problem.” Caitlin nodded and agreed.

They walked forward and soon arrived at a spacious room. In the room, Chen Heng and the others first needed to go through a detailed examination before entering the equipment.

Similar examinations had already begun, which had been going on since Chen Heng agreed to join the experiment. So it was just a summary at this moment.

“I’ll start first.” As the test ended, Chen Heng could not help but take the lead to speak after looking around at the people around him who looked grave, somewhat worried, and fearful. Then, he took the lead and walked in.

The door of the huge golden instrument before him opened, allowing Chen Heng to enter, then slowly closed, as if it had completely isolated him from the outside world.

When Chen Heng entered the instrument, his sharp senses sensed something unusual. An inexplicable aura emerged around him, giving him an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
