The Test of Awakening hadn’t just used Elias’s memories to create a manifestation of Dreke. It had made the manifestation as realistic as possible, even incorporating details that Elias hadn’t known at the time.
On the opposite side of the experimentation table, another table held various materials and equipment, all meticulously arranged. Numerous shelves lined the walls, sealed by Dreke in the past.
Behind the glass of some shelves, Elias could see jars filled with unknown liquids. Some contained poisonous insects, alive yet motionless. Other jars held things like organs from beasts, and even some from humans.
"I am warning you again. Don’t touch anything here. If you do, and something goes wrong, I won’t save you. So you better listen well and stay alive until you can spread the stories. After that you can die for all I care."
Dreke walked over to the table, and opened a diary that was also identical to what Elias had seen in the test of awakening.
Everything here was so similar that Elias wondered if the results of that experiment from that test were also real? Was that a real recipe that could be created from the materials that were present here?
Dreke picked up a pen and started writing something in the diary. After every line he wrote, he mixed some materials together from the table.
"I heard your performance in the practicals was great." Elias walked closer to Dreke to observe carefully, a coldness slowly creeping in his eyes.
He had everything that he wanted already. He was inside the lab of Dreke. He even had the materials that Dreke had gathered. Even if he wasn’t a virus master himself, he couldn’t have cared about it.
The Virus Masters were experts in creating viruses because their minds could analyse thousands of combinations in their minds, calculating even faster than the speed of a supercomputer as long as it was about a virus.
They also had resistance to viruses of many kinds, which made them the most suitable for this profession. Once they evolved further, they didn’t even need to go through the harsh process of mixing materials to create something.
They could create a virus within their own bodies, making their blood the greatest biological weapons in existence. It was a class that was considered weak in lower stages but in higher stages, it was quite frightening.
The High Grade Virus Masters who had gone through five evolutions or higher were something that even the Professors of the Academy would have avoided. Unfortunately, their numbers were extremely low.
There was not a single Virus Master who was said to have gone through the sixth evolution. There were even stories that the families couldn’t allow anyone like that to exist so they killed any virus master who was even close to the sixth evolution.
Only a rare few Virus Masters were in their fifth evolutions, but they were mostly in hiding. The highest stage of the virus master known was only the fourth stage evolution, which was also who Dreke’s mother hired to help her son.
Elias didn’t care about the Virus Masters. He didn’t even know much about the Viruses or their formulas, but he still wanted to enter this place for one and one reason alone. It was also the reason he didn’t outright kill Dreke when he had the opportunity.
"Hmm? Are you talking about the place called Earth? If only I was a little faster, I could have taken first place. If only that pathetic world died faster. Even in death, they screwed me over," Dreke shook his head in frustration, the pen on his hand stabbing deeper into the paper as he moved it.
"I’m sure the Virus Master found for me, must have been a quack. His virus couldn’t even kill an ordinary world fast enough," he said, unable to hide his frustration.
It was only after he finished speaking that he thought about what he had done. He couldn’t tell anyone else that the virus didn’t belong to him.
"If you told anyone what you heard here, I will kill you myself!" His brows rose, as he coldly warned Elias without even looking at him. Read the latest on freewebnovel
"Don’t worry. I will make sure nothing gets out of this place."
"Good. It seems you’re not completely useless after all." Dreke smirked. "Though earth was quite interesting. It was fun watching that place die."
"How fun?" Elias asked, his voice barely audible. However, since he was standing right next to Dreke, his words were as clear as day.
"The humans that lived in that world were running like ants, trying to find a way to survive. Those fools really thought that their medicines could stop the virus of a Virus Master."
"Many of them were praying to gods, begging for their survival. They had no idea that I was the true god of that world at that time, watching them from the sky as my baby virus spread across the entire world."
"It does sound fun," Elias responded, his voice carrying not even the slightest trace of emotions.
"You can only imagine, but I was right there to experience it. I could never get tired of that feeling."
"Didn’t you get bored watching them die for days straight?" Elias asked.
"What’s there to get bored? I had a few friends there with me, to keep me company. We even made a bet on how fast that world will die. Of course I won the bet. As a virus master, if I couldn’t even calculate it, then wouldn’t it be too embarrassing?"
"I knew how fast I was going to finish the trial, but I didn’t know about others. Every time I think about the fact that there were people who finished their trials faster than me, it still makes my blood boil."
Dreke started talking to himself, living that day all over again when he received the results. Even though the completion of the trial allowed him to enter the third year classes from the second year, he still had that sour taste in his mouth.
"Earth made you win your bet. How very kind of it," Elias said, his voice carrying a faint trace of sarcasm.
