Chapter 324 The Academy Gathers
Elbert finally escaped the crowded Steelgate Bridge and took a detour to the Wavehaven Maple District.
Under Conrad's guidance, they arrived in front of a massive mansion!
Seeing the scene before him, Elbert was deeply amazed.
This yard was enormous.
High walls, grand courtyards, and even the door handles were gilded!
There was even a sign on the front door indicating that this villa belonged to the Wall family.
Elbert looked at the chubby kid in the back seat and suddenly remembered that Conrad's last name was Wall!
A short, chubby man who looked like Conrad rushed out from inside the gate!
Seeing Conrad getting out of the car, he looked anxious and shouted in a thick Southern accent. "Conrad, you scared me! The school was robbed, the bridge exploded, where did you go?"
"Dad, I'm fine. Elbert saved me and brought me back!" Conard replied.
As soon as Conrad stood firm, he was hugged by his father.
Conrad's dad glanced at Elbert. "Elbert, thanks to you, otherwise the Wall family would lose a heir!"
Elbert smiled slightly, "You're welcome."
"My name is Garry." Garry, holding his child, stared at Elbert.
Elbert pursed his lips slightly, "Hello."
Garry grinned, "My family has been selling potatoes for generations. You'll definitely need my help someday!"
"Garry, nice to meet you. I'm Elbert!" Elbert nodded stiffly.
"Since you're here, come in and take a cart of potatoes with you!" Conrad's dad pointed into the yard, where piles of potatoes could be seen forming small mountains!
"No need! I gotta go, Garry. See you around!" Elbert said, turning to get into the car, waved, and quickly drove away!
"Impressive guy!" Garry scratched his head!
Conrad suddenly asked, "Dad, where's Mom?"
"She's at a meeting, why?" Garry asked.
"Can she take me to school tomorrow?" Conard replied.
Back at Lab Graveyard, Dennis immediately dived into his room, claiming that he needed to plan his revenge!
Elbert smiled playfully.
Without thinking much, he returned to the workbench to check the progress of the 'Cube' research.
The progress of the 6th level 'Cube' had slowed significantly, but it had already been more than halfway done!
Elbert knew that each modification method was more powerful than the last!
As for the specific effects, it would depend on the conditions of the person being modified! Its true power would only be known once the modifications were complete!
Then, a series of surveillance images appeared in Elbert's view.
FutureTech Group, Level -4, the long-sealed M-069 project base. The lights were dim, and the equipment was covered in dust!
These devices were too outdated and didn't have the capability to realize the 'Cube'!
To be precise, there was no equipment in the world that could realize the 'Cube'!
With a thought, Robert Williams quickly placed an order online for various high-precision instruments from home and abroad!
Definitely, these were just basic components.
Elbert planned to create the equipment to realize the Cube himself at Lab Graveyard!
At that moment, Elbert received a text message on his phone.
Violet Moon: [The first team of BioGen Innovations Hero Academy has been assembled. Meet at the base at 9 AM tomorrow!]
Elbert was a bit surprised, he didn't expect BioGen Innovations to move so quickly!
But then he thought of BioGen Innovations' dozens of branches across Veridiania and understood.
With multiple channels nationwide, frantically gathering talent and bringing them to Wavehaven, this was BioGen Innovations' strategy for the Hero Academy!
Early the next morning, Elbert headed straight to BioGen Innovations Hero Academy after dropping Dennis off at school.
Where the meeting took place was a converted basketball gym.
On the entire east wall was a huge BioGen Innovations hero poster, which was quite imposing!
When Elbert entered, he found he was the last one!
After scanning the room, he instantly understood the situation!
The seats were divided into two camps, separated by 6 feet, with 7 people on one side and 5 on the other.
The 7-person camp was a mix, with people from Victoria and other countries.
Presumably, these were the talents BioGen Innovations had gathered from overseas!
The only Veridiania in that camp was glaring at Elbert.
This person was the rich kid who had spent $4 million for a spot and $150,000 on fake medicine!
Realizing this, Elbert sighed slightly.
The situation was clear. One side was from Veridiania while the other from the international community!
BioGen Innovations' strategy was also evident, isolating the Veridiania trainees!
Except for that foreign-adoring rich kid, who somehow managed to get into the international camp!
Elbert didn't make a fuss and quietly sat at the back of the Veridiania camp.
No guidance was needed, because Violet Moon was standing in front of the Veridiania camp, frowning.
While the international camp was led by a blonde, blue-eyed Victoria instructor.
"Everyone's here, let's get to know each other first!" The two instructors gathered, and Violet Moon spoke, "I'm Violet Moon, and for the next three months, I'll be the instructor for Group Two, the Veridiania group!"
A chubby kid in front of him muttered, "What, why is the Veridiania group Group Two? Are those foreigners Group One? Isn't this Veridiania?"
Violet Moon shook her head slightly, "Besides, the two groups will compete in the future, and the winners will get the modification qualifications!"
At this moment, a whistle sounded, and a Bryan from the international group stared at Violet Moon's figure, full of lust.
He licked his lips and teased, "Violet, you are so hot. Do you have a boyfriend?"
Everyone present was an elite among humans, with rebellious personalities, not easy to manage!
Violet Moon didn't speak. She turned and walked slowly towards Bryan, her high heels clicking on the floor.
She approached, suddenly reached out, grabbed Bryan by the neck, and lifted him into the air!
Everyone was stunned by the her bold move!
Bryan's face turned purple, and he tried to pry Violet Moon's fingers off with all his strength!
Even though he was a candidate with a single punch strength of 500 pounds, he couldn't budge Violet Moon's delicate hand!
"The first lesson here is to learn to respect!" Violet Moon said coldly, then threw the young man to the ground!
Bryan fell to the ground, shocked!
