The immediate priority was to save this Hynth's life. Its body likely contained genes from quite a few other species, and those genes were constantly attacking and devouring one another.
Leaving it alone would certainly end badly. As the earlier records had described, the Hynth's body and flesh would eventually collapse into a puddle of rotten, bloody remains. Only deranged Flayed Ones could stomach something that disgusting.
Saving the Hynth, and thereby preserving the Krork gene samples within it—which might have mutated but could still be viable—would require Cheng Mingrui to risk his life again. With the blessing of Gork and Mork, however, he felt much more confident.
The Growth Vat had already been infected by Slaanesh's power. He would have to purge that strange power first, repair the Growth Vat, then use it to adjust the Hynth's genes and stabilize its living form.
Every step would be extremely difficult. Judging by the list of materials he had just given Clever Git, it would take him about three hours to return with the supplies.
He would spend those three hours purging Slaanesh's power first.
After silently invoking the names of Gork and Mork, Cheng Mingrui pressed his hand against the Growth Vat again. Give up? No chance! An Ork Warboss charged fearlessly ahead! An Ork Warboss overcame everything!

A world of dazzling colors appeared before Cheng Mingrui. He stood in a passage whose walls were covered in vivid images.
Glancing at those images out of the corners of his eyes, he found them bizarre, chaotic, incomprehensible, and impossible to perceive. Only when Cheng Mingrui focused on one did it slowly emerge from that incomprehensible chaos and become clear.
