Chapter 677: Ivan_2

---

In Auckland, New Zealand, inside a villa.

A assistant in a white gown carefully removes a piece of skin from the cultivator. The skin, which has expanded from 1 square centimeter to approximately 200 square centimeters, is placed on a tray by the assistant and brought to Professor Ivan.

Professor Ivan, in his fifties, has deep and insightful eyes. His cheeks, chin, and the area around his mouth are all covered in thick stubble, evidencing several days without shaving. If this continues, he will surely grow a typical Russian beard.

Professor Ivan moved from Russia to New Zealand many years ago and has resided on this island nation ever since, apart from traveling for surgeries.

With Professor Ivan's wealth and professional capabilities, he could have moved to almost any immigrant-accepting country in the world. However, after many years of field research and comparison, he chose New Zealand.
