Chapter 1297 - Chapter 1297 Chapter 1295 Han Dongs Ulterior Motive

Chapter 1297: Chapter 1295: Han Dong’s Ulterior Motive Chapter 1297: Chapter 1295: Han Dong’s Ulterior Motive Turning off the street, he entered a dark alleyway.

After facial recognition by the hyperplasia eyeballs set into the walls, the barrier was withdrawn.

A gate carved with metallic patterns, hollowed and pitch black, appeared before his eyes.

Caw~

The miserable cawing of crows struck the visitor’s ears like needles,

Bizarre and twisted dead trees densely planted around the estate, with some Blood Crystal Stones embedded in their trunks,

The air was not only filled with the common scent of decay and stench, but also with a unique and intense smell of “corpse oil”,

Looking along the stone path towards the deeper parts of the estate, one could see neatly arranged buildings housing different kinds of demons, including Crowmen, Ghouls, Blood Descendants, and Fishmen… as well as various mechanically modified hybrids.

The large mansion at the center radiated a bright blood-red luster.

Currently.

The estate had one particularly striking ‘new feature’.

Black smoke with a strong scent of corpse oil was continuously rising from the ground, with an outlet every five meters.

The thick and dense black fog was gathering in the sky, darkening the clouds while effectively enhancing the estate’s concealment.

Miss Sally considered herself well-informed among the demons, but she had never seen such a region before.

Besides resembling the ‘diversity of demons’ of a Neutral City, Han Dong’s estate was also mixed with foreign elements not from the Demon World.

These elements, which shouldn’t appear together, were perfectly mixed under Han Dong’s manipulation.

“What are these black smokes… They seem to be able to resist the [Nameless Fog] to some extent.”

Han Dong extended his Fingers toward the ground and explained:

“It’s a special substance I brought from Fate Space using points, related to corpses.

Currently, my Underground Laboratory is manufacturing, purifying, and improving this material, trying to fuse it with Ghouls. If successful, I might be able to create a special army that cannot be measured with conventional data.

Please keep this matter a secret for me for now, and don’t disclose it to others.

It will be useful at a critical time.”

“Sure.”

Since Han Dong brought the two into the estate, he had no intention of keeping it a complete secret.

As long as the core technology isn’t leaked, these superficial pieces of information don’t matter.

Guided by Han Dong, the three walked deeper into the estate.

“Lord, welcome back!”

The demons living in the estate greeted Han Dong with the utmost devotion.

Although they felt the strength of Miss Sally and Mr. Hop, they harbored no fear.

At Han Dong’s command, they would throw themselves at the two like mad.

…

Scarlet Mansion

A familiar figure stood out in the open terrace, waving towards Han Dong at the entrance, recognizable at a glance by her moist and characteristic large fleshy legs.

[Spotted Toad – Maritzis]

In the cleansing project of the Eastern City District, Maritzis’s contribution was immense, covering all the dark pollution in the district with her [Water], assisted by little Nicole’s support.

When Mary saw the two visitors next to Han Dong, she shivered, and the clear water from her body flowed over the terrace.

Whoosh!

[Spatial Transfer]

Maritzis immediately came to the main entrance and greeted the two distinguished guests with a human courtesy.

“Miss Sally, Mr. Hop, welcome to your arrival.”

As she bowed, a perfectly proportioned leg of a Black Goat stepped into Mary’s field of vision.

The audacity of the original Element coupled with a questioning tone, asked:

“Do you live here too?”

“Um… Mr. Nicholas allowed me to stay here.”

Hearing such a response, Sally couldn’t hold back any longer.

She glared menacingly at Han Dong and made an immediate demand: “I want to move in here too, and I must live in the same room as you.”

“If the Flock has no objections, Miss Sally, please feel free to move in.”

“As for Aunt Ingrid, I’ll find a way to persuade her… I’ll move my things over tomorrow!”

Sally scrutinized the Spotted Toad, which seemed quite close to Han Dong.

Her gaze lingered on its large, moist legs, and even Sally felt somewhat tempted.

They had seen it long ago when Maritzis participated in the London game as Han Dong’s ‘partner’… This fact had always been etched in Sally’s mind.

Feeling the awkwardness in the atmosphere, Han Dong suddenly came up with an idea and hastily made a friendly suggestion.

“Since Miss Sally plans to move in.

Maritzis, why don’t you take Mary to the room to have a look first? When you have time, you can also wander around and get familiar with the place.

I’ll make a trip to the Underground Laboratory with Hop, and I’ll be back soon.”

“Ah?!”

Maritzis herself was quite afraid of Sally… due to a sense of oppression from the Element and the hostility emanating from Sally herself.

Unexpectedly, the Goat’s Hoof stepped forward.

Sally took the initiative to link arms with Maritzis, extending several dark purple tongues, licking the moistness constantly seeping from Mary’s skin.

“Sure~ You guys go ahead… It’s perfect for Mary to show me around the mansion.”

Before leaving, Han Dong urged worriedly: “You two must get along well.”

…

[Underground Laboratory]

Bringing Hop, the ‘Ancient Leather Giant’ with a special identity, to this place, Han Dong had his ulterior motives.

First, he gave Hop a tour of the entire experimental area,

After briefly explaining the various experimental zones and their principles, he demonstrated the strength of the [Ghoul. Modification] in Real Combat.

This sparked a kind of ‘Hope of Fire’ within Hop, stemming from his racial heritage.

“Such inferior Ghouls can actually become this strong! Mr. Nicholas, can this technology be used on my kin’s bodies?”

Han Dong saw that the bait had been taken and remained calm, not rushing to act.

“I hear that Hop, your talent is valued by an Upper Old King.

Has this Old King really not provided any ‘growth’ assistance to your kin?”

“Lord Utha has indeed taken our race as vassals, and we can receive the gifts given by the lord through various offerings, a kind of [Ultimate Flesh] that can completely transform the body.

However, ‘Ancient Leather Giants’ capable of carrying such flesh are extremely rare, fundamentally unable to change the current state of our race.”

“Is that so?

My technology is currently only used on Ghouls.

Moreover, the origin of these technologies is anything but simple.

It took me decades of research, including knowledge brought out from Fate Space through life-and-death struggles.

This technology will serve as a critical bargaining chip for my future, and I am not ready to part with it yet.”

“Indeed… It belongs to your private wealth.”

Han Dong, looking at the somewhat disappointed Hop, seized the opportunity and immediately reeled in.

“I understand the ‘weight’ you carry on your shoulders, Hop. After all, besides needing to bear the heavy title of the Element, you also need to support your entire race with your own strength.

Let’s do this.

We’ll start by signing a confidentiality agreement, and I will provide some technical personnel in modification to your tribe to attempt transformations on Ancient Leather Giant bodies.

In return for the technology, personnel, and as a guarantee for the confidentiality agreement, I hope you can sign an individual ‘collaboration agreement’ with me.”

Han Dong used the power granted by the Yellow Mark to create two Soul agreements.

One for technical confidentiality, the other for private cooperation with Hop.

“The collaboration agreement will not restrict any of your freedoms. You’ll only need to provide a fixed amount of ‘Giant Cells’ from your body… It’s up to you, Hop.”
