Chapter 89 Experiments..

Grave remembered seeing the same kind of symbols on the snake's body that came to swallow him in the vision. Grave did not understand shit about these symbols and runes.

Maybe these were some advanced information that he might learn later in the Creation path but as of now, bullshit.

Grave shift his attention to the 3rd screen. This screen displayed information about the snake's abilities and weaknesses, giving Grave valuable insight into how he could defeat this creature.

This was the purpose of the gene machine to know the ins and out of the monster of your village.

"Sigh, if only this machine shows this much detail about other species that are not snake type"

Grave shook his head in this false hope. The gene machine was the tool through which the Dungeon master monster could monitor the progress of evolution.

"Start the essence extraction process." Grave gave the command to the machine.

4 Glass panels came and cover the whole area around the snake's body where the tip of the gene machine was attached to block the air.

Two mechanical arms of the machine attached to 2 sides of the glass chamber that had a hole in them.

One of the arms released a green gas into the sealed glass container. After a few seconds, the gas was sucked out of the container through other arms.

Both holes present in the glass container closed and both armed backed away. All the preparation for Gene Essence extraction was finished.

The tip of the Gene machine started shining in red light. The process of essence extraction started.

As the machine extracted the gene essence a faint mist began to form around the snake's body.

Hmmmmm

The gene machine produced a soft sound and the liquid present in the center of the machine formed a ring shape.

Grave looked seriously as the process continued, his eyes glued to the screens in front of him. He could see the gene essence flowing into the machine, there were different runes and symbols all compressing and entering the machine.

As the machine started extraction of the essence, Grave noticed the snake's body twitching. He could see that this process was too much for a normal-grade snake.

As the extraction continued, Grave could see the snake becoming increasingly sluggish. After a few tense moments, the extraction process was complete.

A shiny green ball was present in one of the sockets of the gene machine.

Slowly all 4 glasses moved back freeing the snake. Grave rushed toward the snake.

It was alive but as he picked up the snake, it died in his hand. The process of essence extraction in itself did not kill the snake but after the extraction snake loosed a third of its essence as normal-grade snakes had 2-3 essences in them.

This extraction made it so weak that it had no chance of survival.

Grave sigh he could use the dead body for extraction. "It's a waste of 2 more essences," Grave said to himself. He knew that this little extraction had cost him a quarter of the lowest mana core.

Even the simple process of essence extraction was so costly.

Grave carefully picked up the snake's body and placed it in a corner. Then he removed the glass container of essence from the machine sockets.

In his hand was the gene green gene essence of the snake. Grave walked to the corner and picked one of the pant essences and placed snake and plant essence side by side.

The red plant essence seemed to pulse with warm and vibrant energy to it. It cast a soft glow on the surrounding area, making it look as if a fire was burning within the bottle.

On the other hand, the dark green snake essence was much more subdued. Unlike clear bright plant essence, it was dull and muddy. It gave occasional sparks in the surrounding.

Roan was amazed by the two essences and was eager to see what would happen when they were combined.

He picked up the bottles of plant essence, it felt warm in his hand. Then, he picked up the bottle of snake essence, noticing how cool it was.

Grave really wanted to start the experiment of the combination of snake essence with plant essence but he controlled him self he need to extract all 19 essences before he could start the damn experiment.

Not wasting any time he started gene extraction of one snake after another.

…

After an hr Grave looked at the 20 pairs of plant and snake essence in front of him. All snake essence were from different types of snakes but none of them had any visible change to them. They all looked the same muddy dark green color.

Grave now needed to proceed with a series of experiments that would 100% fail chance. All just to find which snake essence was most compatible with the plant-type essence.

"All the waste of resources just to know some answers, what a loss." Grave swallowed the bitter pill and grabbed the first pair of plant and snake essence and walked to the gene machine.

Grave moved toward the machine and placed both plant and snake essence in the sockets present in the gene machine.

"Start the gene combination,"  Grave gave the command.

Different screens came floating to him.

3 other armed moved this time. One armed placed a circular glass at the tip of the machine and then backed away.

The other 2 arms were attached to the 2 sides of the large glass.

Grave saw one of the arms start to shine red while the other started to shine green color.

The tip of the machine gene machine entered the 3rd slot in the large glass. Runes all over the gene machine started shiny. The machine was ready to use.

Grave looked at the screens in front of him. There were 3 major screens.

One on his left had the symbols and runes in green color and the other on the right hand had red symbols on it. The Center screen had a large start button on it.

Garve controlled his excitement and pressed the start button.

The Gene machine sprang into action. Rune started to shine brighter. The large glass containing a small amount of red and green essence dropped from the arm.

He watched as the two essences flowed into the chamber, swirling around each other.

On the middle screen, he saw how different symbols started to mess around each other.

There a percentage of gene compatibility show at the bottom.

At first, everything seemed to be going well. The essences swirled and danced, reacting with each other in unexpected ways but as more amount of essence was added to the large container there started moving around fastly.

! WARNING!!!! large sound of warning started coming from the gene machine.

Before he could even enjoy the experiment fail but Grave did not stop.

By stopping at this time he save half of the essence but then he would not get all data.

After a few sec.  Almost all the essence dropped in the large channel.

Baaaaaaaaam

The large glass chamber blasted apart.

Grave jumped back to protect himself. "That was crazy."

Grave walked back to the machine. The Gene machine was unscratched only the large glass container blasted apart spilling both essences on the ground.

Grave looked at the screen and sigh, "only 20% that will be really hard." GRave opened the experiment log and enter the detail of the experiment there.

After that, he started cleaning around the machine and then engaged himself in other experiments.

….

After a few hrs Grave was on the ground with a paper in his hand, "Fck this is crazy. Even the most compatible snake was only less than 25%. Shit. "

Grave looked at the paper in his hand that had a bunch of numbers on it. The highest of them was 24 while the lowest was 8%.

"No need to ramble, I will find something useful that may help me in this experiment." Grave walked up, " Let go with delivery then."

He teleported out of the gene lab and then came back with 30 snakes in his hand all of them had the same types. He started to extract one snake essence after another.

These were 8% compatibility type snakes, Grave did not want a plant-snake hybrid present in some other dungeons. This was the much step to prevent that from happening.

After extracting all the snakes he delivered all of the snakes to the Element master and then logged out of the game.

…

Vice looked at the reaming teammates and shouted, " Why are you guys not wanting to try the run." He pointed to the panda paradise where a few players were getting destroyed by pandas.

One of the teammates said, "What is the point of going there when we know that we will die losing our level." All remaining 40 players nodded their heads at that.

"So you guys are quitting the team even before anything started." Vice looked at them but none of them replied to him.

" Shit what a bunch of cowards you guys are. You only have 7 days either if you did not complete the task till then goodbye." Vice clicked his tongue in annoyance and then walked toward the panda paradise.
