Venomus and Lisa were amazed at how fast Lincoln threw those punches. But the strangest thing was that behind the boy was what appeared to be a cloud of black smoke.

Lincoln gave one final blow, causing the boy to break through the wall, leaving a spot of blood instantly.

With this, the video ends.

"Amazing. I never imagined that powerful stimulation could give him such abilities." Venom was really excited because it meant an improvement in Lincoln's performance when it came to fighting.

"By the way, have you made any progress regarding treating my brother's condition?"

"Gald that you asked." Venom pulls out a syringe from his robe with a plastic cap covering the needle. Inside was a light-colored liquid.

"What is this? This is an artificial stem cell. They have the ability to adapt three times faster than common ones, thanks to empowerment."

"Did you finish this in just two days?"

"It wasn't easy. There were a lot of experiments and failures."

"Experiment on primates?"

"Something like that. Follow me, but I'm warning you. What you see may be horrific. Or maybe not. It depends on how strong your stomach is."

Venom took Lisa to the restricted area. They both went down to the cell area. There, Lisa saw a scene that could only be described as brutal.

There were people in the cells. Or so it seemed they were before. Now they are a tangle of mutations and deformities. Some have swollen heads from the growth of their brains. Others have muscles so large that they have torn skin. Some are covered in hair, as if they were monkeys. And the list went on.

People with eyes that were adapted to see in the dark but were extremely sensitive to light. People with ears that resembled bat ears.

Huge hands.

Legs like those of a grasshopper.

Others have bony growths.

All of them were nailed in the arms, so they were in an induced coma.

The group of mutants that were there baffled Lisa.

"What is this place? Professor?"

"It's my experimentation suite. Here I have human scum. People are sentenced to death or life imprisonment. Overcrowded prisons send me a new load every now and then to use in my investigations."

"These are the test subjects I used in my experiments with empowerment."

"What were the results?"

"The first exploded. From pure, unstable empowerment. So the dose must be very small and diluted with other substances."

Both scientists approached one of the cells.

"The first was the guy with the muscles that tore his skin off."

"This is test subject B29. His genes made him susceptible to accelerated muscle development. I diluted five milliliters of empowerment with the steroid cocktail I injected into him. This was the result."

Then they approached the subject's cell with a big head.

"This is A22. His IQ is over 200. I injected the same amount of compound diluted into a cocktail of drugs for cognitive performance."

"As a result, his brain grew to penetrate his skull, but not his skin."

Next was Cricket Foot.

"Subject C19: His speed exceeded the speed mark set by Usain Bolt. The same amount of empowerment was injected into his legs with a mixture of potassium."

The next cell was the subject with spikes on his spine, shoulders, elbows, knees, wrists, and joints.

Horns sprouted from his head. In addition to large canines, pointed teeth, and molars.

"This is Test Subject J15. He was born with a genetic bone condition that makes his bones three times as long and twice as wide as human bones. In addition, the process of rebuilding fractures was faster.

I injected the same amount of empowerment into this one as the other three. Blended with a blend of calcium, vitamin D, and C

"As a result, bone formations grew through the skin. His teeth sharpened and grew, the latter becoming more pronounced in his upper and lower canine teeth, which now measure five centimeters."

"I'm noticing a pattern. Medications, vitamins, or medications that would normally help enhance their abilities, along with empowerment, have caused mutations related to their most prominent traits."

"That's how it is. This was the least extreme of the results. For one milliliter of pure empowerment, injected, it caused a violent reaction," the professor confirmed as he pointed to a small robot that was wiping several blood-filled cells on the walls, floor, and ceiling.

"But when diluted, it seems to be relatively stable."

They both entered another ward.

"This is the wing of those who Ingested empowerment."

"They ingest!?" Lisa was surprised by this fact.

"This is how it is. After the first tests of the injection, I was able to create pills that can be taken."

Venom and Lisa were on a bridge suspended above four cages. There were four people in these cages.

They no longer look like people. anthropomorphic animals. Like previous ones, they were in a deep-induced coma.

"What are these creatures?"

"These are the test subjects for the second phase of encapsulated empowerment. Diluted in animal DNA. It seems to be the most stable if there are organic compounds in the mixture. That's why I used artificial animal cells. One hundred percent, they mimic animal DNA, but instead of it being extracted from them, they are grown in my own laboratory."

"Fascinating."

"Follow me; the end is missing."

They both walked to a massive steel door with several circular handles similar to those found on submarines.

Venomus presses a button on his wrist, and the handles start turning.

Then the door rises. Behind her, another door opened, dipping into the floor, followed by two pairs of doors that opened vertically and horizontally. Diagonal and X.

Each door had locks one meter thick. The doors were three meters thick.

Lisa could not imagine what kind of abomination could lie behind all this security.

There was an iron wall in front of them. which has been opened. The interior was solid, molded into a six-foot-wide glass tube. It is eighty centimeters thick.

The tube was filled with a fluorescent green liquid. And inside, there was a person. But this was different from the previous ones.
