Chapter 1422 Success, but only half of the success (Additional update 2 by Yanjiu leader)

 I don’t know how Idian conveyed it, but in short, after Gretel lost his temper, the surrounding area was indeed much cleaner.

Five days later, three elves who were selected to participate in the experiment sat in front of Gretel.

Two middle-aged elves, one male and one female, were strong in stature and had a bit of a weathered look on their faces. As soon as they stood there, they naturally had a strong and steady air. They took turns shaking hands with Gretel and introducing themselves:

"Marek Aoba, the ranger of Torrent Forest, is six hundred and thirty-eight years old this year."

"Aida Moondew. Captain of the Far Sea Patrol of Everjum Island. She is six hundred and twenty-one years old this year."

Gretel was in awe. Whether they were the rangers of Torrent Forest or the distant sea patrols of Everjum Island, they were all warriors fighting on the front line.

Looking at their momentum and the majesty of their gestures, it is obvious that they have been fighting on the front line for a long time and have paid countless blood and sacrifices.

It would be great if there was an opportunity to allow them to go further, especially if it could not block their way forward...

Gretel shook hands with them vigorously, and then turned to the third person. This elf was older than the previous two. He had a shocking knife mark on his cheek, which reached directly to the corner of his eye and extended to his chin.

The elves are a race that is protected by nature. Their prime period is also extremely long, and the time when aging and illness befall them is extremely short. But this elf clearly shows his age.

...is this possible?

Grete's first reaction was not "Will it be a waste if he participates in the project at such an old age?" but "Will he be able to survive it if he participates in the project at such an old age?"

While thinking about it, he reached out to shake hands with the other person. The old elf seemed to be aware of Gretel's thoughts, grinned, and exerted force on his hand:

"Ouch!"

Gretel almost jumped up. This old man must be too cruel. His palms are as rough as sandpaper for polishing parts. His strength is stronger than pliers, not much different from a bench vise!

"I am Kirkland Nightwind, a guard of the Royal Court. I am seven hundred and eighty-three years old this year." The old elf introduced himself proudly. After speaking, he let go of his hand and pointed to his heart:

"Don't look at my age, but it's still very good here. I will be able to withstand the experimental process. Master Nordmark, please!"

Cardiopulmonary function is indeed an important part of the enrollment assessment.

Whether using the water from the Well of Eternity or receiving infusion from a magic circle, the subject may endure great pain. However, in order to advance, he must maintain control of his body from beginning to end and cannot be under anesthesia——

Therefore, when Elder Fahim and others evaluated the subjects, they almost copied the items that Gretel had checked for the eldest prince.

However, this 783-year-old man, no matter how good his cardiopulmonary function is, can be considered to be approximately equivalent to a human being of 78 years old, or at least 70 years old. Is it really okay for him to join?

"Mage Nordmark, as you said, this experiment may be dangerous." Seeing Gretel's hesitation, Kirkland Night Breeze restrained his smile and said seriously:

"If we old guys can't participate in experiments that may go wrong, how about letting young people face the crisis? Don't hesitate, just use me!"

Faced with the old man's heart-wrenching remarks, Gretel took a deep breath and finally forced himself to smile.

His personal task was actually just to confirm the informed consent of each experimenter, to confirm that they fully understood the situation, that they were all voluntary, and that no one was forced -

As for screening the experimental subjects and confirming that each experimental subject meets the conditions, these tasks are the responsibility of Elder Amat, Elder Fahim, and other legends in the experimental team.

Subjects who can be approved by them and sent to him should not have any problems no matter what.

"Thank you for your hard work." Gretel reached forward with his right hand and squeezed Kirkland Night Breeze's palm hard:

"As you said, this experiment may be dangerous, especially for the elderly. If you can't hold on any longer, be sure to stop and don't think about 'hold on a little longer, hold on a little longer'——

If we stop, we still have time to treat him, but if we hold on a little longer, it may be too late! You know, if a subject's life is in danger, the experimental progress will be delayed and resources wasted, which will be many times more than just giving up and withdrawing from the group!"

Kirkland nodded with a heavy face. If he was the only one to sacrifice, he would not be afraid, it would just be returning to nature. However, the thought of delaying the progress of the experiment and wasting research resources...

"Don't worry, I will definitely pay attention and won't cause any trouble to you. - So, can I be the first to go up?"

Grete smiled bitterly. He obviously did not completely persuade the old warrior. Fortunately, the other party still promised to be cautious——

He bowed slightly and said seriously:

"Following the established order, you are the third one to enter the experiment. Don't worry, we still have to conduct final tests on your chromosomes, debug, and lock the magic circle.

Please take a good rest these few days, adjust your state, relax, and I wish you success."

Early on the third day, when the first ray of morning light shone on the top of the World Tree, Marek Aoba was the first to step into the magic circle.

He was shirtless and only wore a pair of shorts, so that researchers and healers outside the magic circle could observe his condition in real time. He sat with his eyes closed outside the magic circle.

Elder Fahim opened the energy supply circle connected to the Well of Eternity;

Gretel turned on the microscope and the magic array connected to the microscope;

Idian poured a test tube of well water from the Well of Eternity into a special container connected to the magic circle——

"start!"

"start!"

"start!"

Huge energy rotates and gathers. Under the microscope, or in front of the analytical array dedicated to the microscope, the chromosome image on the light screen lights up with golden light extremely slowly——

"No. 1 scheduled location completed."

"The second scheduled point is completed."

"The biceps are starting to tear."

"The gluteus maximus is starting to rupture."

"Latissimus Dorsi Ligament Stretch."

"Heart rate 120, 125, 130 - 125, he is adjusting his breathing and trying to control himself, good job - 130, it went up again, but it did not exceed the dangerous value -"

Gretel remained silent and stared at the light screen. Up to now, the entire experiment was still proceeding according to the predetermined pace. The subjects' vital signs showed no signs of danger, and their vitality continued to rise.

The amount of Well of Eternity water used was greatly reduced, and it was injected into the subjects in a slow-release manner.

The subject's pain was greatly reduced, the blood pressure soared, and the heart rate soared also decreased. It was not like the previous experiment where it was always hovering on the dangerous line...

I hope it can succeed... I hope this time, I can be closer to success and further away from cutting off the path forward for these soldiers...

The experiment lasted three days and three nights. According to the original plan, the changes to the chromosomes only lasted one day——

The number of chromosomes that need to be changed is much less than that of the eldest prince, so it is quite prudent to continue it for one day.

The work of injecting the water into the Well of Eternity and changing the physique of the warriors lasted for three full days based on previous experience.

Three days later, Marek Aoba staggered out of the magic circle, staggering, as if he had shed a layer of skin. Despite this, his eyes were extremely bright, and he clenched his fists as soon as he walked out of the tree hole.

Swing it out in a circle——

"boom!"

The fist raised in the void exploded with the sound of wind and thunder.

"Advanced successfully!"

"To what extent?"

"This still needs to be evaluated...but success is already certain..."

As agreed, Marek Aoba took a deep sleep and had a full meal before being immediately taken away for evaluation.

Speed, strength, reaction ability, actual combat, the results of various evaluations are that he has advanced from high-level beginner to high-level advanced, and has not even touched the edge of legend——

However, the analysis of chromosomes also showed that there was a certain disorder in his chromosomes, but the degree of disorder was not as high as that of the previous subjects. As for whether he can set foot in the legend...

Elder Herald said very subtly:

"The door is not completely closed, but to push it open requires many times more effort than others. After all, you also know-"

Even so, Marek Aoba is content. As for many times the effort, are you kidding, there is no price for doing anything?

With his qualifications and age, he would have never been close to becoming a legend, let alone a legend!

He said goodbye and left with great satisfaction. Soon, the news of the progress of the experiment spread throughout Everlasting Island. Even Bernard couldn't restrain himself and came to ask:

"Boss, can I-"

"You're still early!"

Grete pushed Bernard back with a dark face. Conducting such a large-scale experiment and using so many resources is not just seeking personal gain with power, it is to help Bernard advance safely!

It's a good thing now, the glimmer of success has just begun, and this guy comes over and asks to join the group?!

After mercilessly blasting Bernard away, Grete carried out the experiment step by step according to the established plan.

For the second subject, Aida Moondew, the time for modifying the chromosome remained unchanged, but the time for injecting well water was shortened to one day, which was the same as the time for modifying the chromosome:

The experimental results show that the degree of chromosomal disorder is reduced, and the degree of progression is also reduced. Perhaps, we need to increase the amount of well water injected?

The third subject, Kirkland Night Breeze, had the same parameters as Aida Moondew, and the well water in the Well of Eternity increased by 10%. As a result of the experiment, ventricular fibrillation occurred midway, and the experiment was stopped urgently to rescue him.

come over……

the fourth……

the fifth……

sixth……

Finally, the time for modifying the chromosomes was extended to one and a half days, and the time for injecting well water was also maintained for one and a half days. The injection amount of the well water from the Well of Eternity was 6 parts, which was catalyzed by the magic circle for slow release.

This parameter can steadily improve to high-level advanced levels for five warriors, and the level of chromosomal disorder is only 10% of that of directly taking Eternal Water.

If the legendary door is closed because of a chromosomal disorder, then as a result, the door is only tilted inward, which is far from being closed with only a crack left!

Now, the final problem and choice is placed in front of Gretel:

Should Bernard be forcibly promoted?
