Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Since I’m here, it’s free anyway!

Riding his bike, Xu Wang quickly arrived at United Corporation's Biotech Park.

As a large technology company, the architectural appearance of this Biotech Park was quite modern.

The cylindrical building's exterior walls had large sections of glass.

However, after Xu Wang entered the Biotech Park, he found that it felt like a small city's zoo inside, suddenly becoming much cheaper.

The Biotech Park seemed to be open to the public.

The guards at the entrance did not stop Xu Wang when he came in.

Besides Xu Wang, there were quite a few other people visiting today.

He specifically observed carefully and did not find the protagonist of 'Dragonfly Man' inside.

This meant that Dragonfly Man might not exist in this World.

Or perhaps he arrived earlier than him.

"Students, please look here. These are all biological samples modified by our United Corporation. Please be careful not to use strong light; some animals are sensitive to strong light. Thank you."

In the Biotech Park, a scientist in a White coat was leading a group of students.

Click!

As soon as he finished speaking.

A shutter sound accompanied by a flash of light was heard.

Xu Wang, who had just entered the Biotech Park, was taking a picture of a parrot with his personal terminal.

Whoosh!

Illuminated by the flash, the parrot immediately burst into Fire!

Its entire body ignited with flames!

"Wow!"

Xu Wang exclaimed.

Seeing the White-haired scientist leading the group turn to look his way, Xu Wang quickly grabbed the parrot and threw it into a nearby pool of Water!

"Hello, sir, did you just see a flash?"

The White-haired scientist sniffed, as if he smelled something burnt, but found nothing unusual, so he looked at Xu Wang behind him.

Xu Wang pretended as if nothing happened, looking around aimlessly, even whistling.

"Sir! Sir!"

The White-haired scientist asked a few more questions, and only then did Xu Wang act as if he had been awakened, pointing at himself with a bewildered expression.

As if asking: Are you calling me?

"Yes, sir, did you just see a flash?"

The White-haired scientist asked again.

"No, I just arrived."

Xu Wang denied it outright.

"Alright, please visit according to our company's regulations."

The White-haired scientist looked around suspiciously, found nothing, then turned around, continued leading the group, and explained to the students.

Catching the scientist no longer paying attention to him out of the corner of his eye, Xu Wang bared his teeth slightly and quickly ran to the Water pool.

He saw that the flames on the parrot's body were already extinguished, and it was now soaking perfectly fine in the Water pool.

Xu Wang breathed a sigh of relief: "Good thing you're alright."

As soon as he finished speaking.

The Water surface in the pool churned, and a saltwater crocodile suddenly lunged out!

It swallowed the parrot in one bite!

With a flick of its huge tail.

The saltwater crocodile, along with the "fleeting" parrot, disappeared beneath the Water.

"Uh..."

Xu Wang's face stiffened, and he quickly looked around.

Seeing that no one noticed him, he turned and jogged away from the spot.

After jogging about ten meters, Xu Wang noticed a row of Screaming Chickens displayed on a nearby wooden rack.

Without any hesitation, Xu Wang picked up a Screaming Chicken and returned to the bird stand where the parrot had been, placing the Screaming Chicken neatly on it.

After placing the Screaming Chicken, Xu Wang bit his thumb and stepped back a few paces, carefully scrutinizing it up and down.

Finally, he revealed a satisfied smile.

So Xu Wang shrugged his shoulders, puffed out his chest, and left proudly.

Three seconds later.

Xu Wang, who had left, returned with a wooden board in his hand.

He inserted the wooden board next to the Screaming Chicken's bird stand, with large, bright letters written on it: "Hibernating, please do not use flash."

After doing all this, Xu Wang finally left.

Although his strong curiosity had been delayed for a while by the evil United Corporation's evil tricks.

However, this could not stop Xu Wang's righteous plan.

He hadn't forgotten what he came here to do.

Mutated dragonflies, those were his main target.

Not long after Xu Wang left.

Another White-coated scientist arrived with a team of reporters.

"Dear reporters! Please note, this is a very magical modified creature! We call it the Phoenix! Once exposed to strong light, its body's stress response will cause it to instantly spontaneously combust."

As soon as the White coat finished speaking, the reporters immediately gasped in surprise!

"Wow—!"

The White coat was very satisfied with the reporters' exclamations.

Someone suggested letting the parrot spontaneously combust to see.

The White coat quickly waved his hand to stop them: "No, no, the parrot is too fragile at this stage. Once it spontaneously combusts, if the Fire cannot be extinguished in time, it will definitely die. It is a valuable specimen, and there is only one currently, so I cannot perform it for you."

Saying that, the White coat turned around again, squinting hard, looking at the Screaming Chicken on the bird stand behind him.

"Damn it, how did I forget to bring my glasses out. But it's alright, such an upright posture, and these yellow feathers, it seems your condition is very good today."

The White coat nodded in satisfaction and then reached out to pinch the Screaming Chicken.

"Ah~~~~~"

The Screaming Chicken let out a long scream after the White coat released it.

"Good, strong breath, quite healthy!"

After completing today's health check on the Screaming Chicken, the White coat squinted, moved aside, and smiled: "Gentlemen, ladies, you may take pictures, but be careful, do not use flash."

As soon as he finished speaking.

The reporters immediately swarmed forward, pushing the White coat aside, surrounding the Screaming Chicken, and began taking pictures, "click, click!"

On the other side, Xu Wang had already found the glass enclosure containing the mutated dragonflies.

Inside the glass enclosure was an artificial miniature ecological landscape.

Seven mutated dragonflies were flying within it.

In 'Dragonfly Man' the movie, one of them flew out and bit the protagonist, causing him to mutate.

"Finally found you all."

Xu Wang smiled, put his hands on his hips, and then took out an empty plastic bottle from his backpack.

He lacked everything now, except bottles.

Looking left and right, Xu Wang found a small window that could be opened.

There was a lock on the outside of the window.

However, it was just an ordinary, common brass lock.

He could open it when he was six years old.

With a little effort, Xu Wang unlocked it, opened the small window, reached straight in, and grabbed a mutated dragonfly.

He put this mutated dragonfly into the bottle and screwed on the lid with air holes poked in it.

Xu Wang's mission here was complete.

Just as he zipped up his backpack, Xu Wang looked at the six dragonflies still flying inside the glass enclosure in front of him, blinking, seemingly contemplating something.

After three seconds of silence, Xu Wang happily reached his hand in again, playfully teasing the group of mutated dragonflies.

Only after being bitten by a mutated dragonfly did Xu Wang retract his hand with satisfaction.

As long as you're bitten by a dragonfly, you can gain superpowers.

Perhaps even if he was bitten, he might not gain superpowers, but he had to try, didn't he?

Since he was already here!

Whether it was useful or not, he'd get bitten first.

Anyway, it didn't cost anything.

Happily closing the small window again, Xu Wang prepared to leave.

However, Xu Wang's originally brisk steps.

As he walked, they gradually slowed down.

He looked at the various animals in this Biotech Park, and his astonishing wisdom once again took the high ground!

"That's right! Since I'm already here! It doesn't cost anything anyway!"

Xu Wang was suddenly delighted!

At once, all the animals in the Biotech Park suddenly felt a chill and collectively looked in Xu Wang's direction!

Pigs, roosters, rabbits, cats, geese, horses, donkeys, mules, and even snails instinctively took a step back.

Their instincts told them to stay away from Xu Wang.

Please comment!

I want to see your comments, otherwise it's like a standalone game, no feedback, my will is so depressed...

I think what I wrote should be quite interesting, right?

Designing a comedic plot is really hard!
