"Magnus Zephyr... If he can help me, does he have some unique equipment better than here?" Adam muttered thoughtfully, rubbing his chin.
Lirla sighed heavily.
"Don't worry, he has great equipment, but it's more than that. He's powerful, cunning, and clever, in fact like most scientists working for themselves. I mean, it's not easy being an ordinary person to become so influential that the government and military won't control you but let you immerse yourself in experiments, regardless of their goals, only occasionally sending requests."
Hearing Lirla's last words, Adam's eyes grew darker, for that description was perfect for Aiden Henk: a scientist who performs gruesome experiments in his laboratory, and no one rushes to stop him.
Lirla continued:
"People like Magnus Zephyr are different from the scientists working in the departments. No one calls them scientists, though, more like researchers, engineers, or directors, depending on the position."
