Experiment Ready

William and Regan had taken completely different paths during their three days at Black Roundworm Company headquarters.

Regan was extremely proactive, even several times more so than he had been at Zion Power Station. The main reason was that he had become utterly fascinated after coming into contact with the headquarters' biotechnology.

Moreover, Regan had already confirmed one thing: if the "biological cluster technology" applied to the guest rooms could shrink the white larvae to the micrometer scale, it would also aid his Mechanical Ascension.

Especially if this cluster technology were used during the final stage of ascension, allowing micrometer-scale larvae to spread throughout the body's critical areas, the success rate of the transformation would increase dramatically.

In just three short days,

After Regan fully displayed the technology and knowledge he had mastered, he was quickly hired as the headquarters' "external cooperative researcher," gaining permission to use Black Roundworm Company's relevant technology and equipment.

However, Regan had to keep the information here absolutely confidential. At the same time, he needed to cooperate with headquarters on certain research projects and bring them tangible benefits.

The greater the benefits, the more permissions the company would open up and the more biological materials it would provide.

William's attitude, however, was completely opposite.

During those three days, he had not left the guest room even once. More precisely, he had not left the bathhouse even once, spending the full seventy-two hours immersed in a pool filled with black roundworms.

The preliminary requirements of the experiment demanded that William remain on an empty stomach. Thus, he simply went three days and three nights without eating while allowing the black roundworms to cleanse his body, bringing his flesh into a truly empty-stomach state.

However, he had other reasons for staying in the bathhouse.
