Chapter 1166 Strong prey

Chapter 1166 Strong prey

"We have finally made some significant progress with clone 117," Josef talked into his voice recorder. "Although we achieved complete basic physical replication with the very first clone, we have failed to replicate any of the unique properties contained within the blood and tissue samples. But with clone 117, we finally have some progress."

Josef raised one of his fat, hair fingers with only his black nail uncovered by his white hair. He scratched the air with his sharp nail, slowly dragging it down, and a similar cut in a straight line appeared on the clone's abdomen.

Blood leaked out of the body, but only for a few seconds, before the wound began to heal.

"This clone displays limited self healing ability beyond the norm, similar to that of a high level cultivator, despite the clone being a mortal. Careful attention must be paid to how the clone was nurtured. Worthy of special attention is the fact that this particular clone was replicated using samples from 'heart tissue', which may be one of the critical reasons why it displays this ability. To confirm, we need to make more clones that underwent the same treatments as 117, but from various other tissue samples.

"As a final note, the client who approached us recently stated that the originals' abilities were not healing, but had more to do with approaching the perfect state, and therefore healing was indirectly a result of that ability. We need to look into this some more."

Josef put the voice recorder away as he watched the cut he placed on the clone's abdomen slowly close. It had been a long time since they had faced a challenge with cloning.

Josef felt something tap on his shoulder, and when he turned around he was stunned. He felt a hand peirce into his body, and beyond it, grabbing onto his very tenets. All the strength in his body suddenly dissipated, preventing him from resisting. He saw brown eyes, though in one he saw a sword, and in the other a saw a fiery inferno.

One by one, the many protective treasures Josef had on his body began to activate, and then break. Something deep inside of him panicked, and told him that he immediately needed to activate some kind of panic button, but the thought slipped away from him. His mind began to weaken until he lost the ability to think.

But unlike Damien, who hid his tracks well, there was a lead that could be followed for the person who commissioned clones for.

The situation was becoming complicated. But regardless of how complicated it became, it was best to collect as much information as possible so that they could be prepared for any eventuality.

Lex summoned Fenrir. Although he was around two decades old now, Fenrir's physiology was still that of a pup, which is likely why he could still not speak. But even so, as soon as the pup arrived in this facility, he woke from his slumber with a start.

It was not the teleportation that shocked him, but the connection he felt from his blood. Some feelings and sensations that had overwhelmed him when he was born came back with a fury, and Fenrir was suddenly reminded of the fact that he had a sister.

It was something the pup had felt at birth, but because it was too weak, it had forgotten. Perhaps forgetting had been a defense mechanism back then. But right now, he was no longer weak. Just as Fenrir began to growl, and was about to unleash his power, Lex gently laid a hand on his head and calmed him down. "Go look at the situation first," Lex said, his voice completely serene, as if he wasn't furious. "Remember, for strong prey, we cannot let them know we are coming. It is only weak prey that we play with."

Fenrir resisted its urge to kill everything within a thousand miles, and began to follow the blood connection it was feeling coming from within the facility. Meanwhile, Lex turned back to look at Josef.

Indeed, the reason he did not make a mess of this place was because he didn't want anyone to catch on yet.

"Pel, you once told me about Karma techniques. Can you tell me a little more about Karma once more?"
