Floating Island - Triple S Talent

Chapter 158: Origin Laboratory



Attack after attack was launched with precision. The ice mage summoned large chunks of ice, mercilessly striking the Mountain Cobras and freezing them in place. Lina, with her archery skills, rained arrows on the enemies, piercing their tough hides with deadly accuracy. Each time her arrows hit vital points, a cobra fell lifeless.

On the other side, the panda man demonstrated his combat prowess. With every martial move he used, a Mountain Cobra would surely collapse. His fists were powerful, and each punch sent waves of energy that shattered the enemies' bones.

Despite the overwhelming number of mountain cobra monsters, Mr. Kate's team had a significant advantage in their variety of skills, particularly due to the abilities and techniques they possessed.

This advantage stemmed from the ongoing Inter-Race War event, which granted humans access to the Higher Realms. Through this access, they could acquire essential resources such as skill books, combat equipment, healing potions, and other rare items, as long as they had Energy Crystals as currency. This allowed them to continue evolving and enhancing their combat capabilities.

Explosions filled the air as the island's defense towers fired energy bullets. The monsters fell one by one, unable to match the combined strength of the team and human technology.

A few minutes later, the battle was over. Mr. Kate's team had defeated the swarm of Mountain Cobras, though they had paid a heavy price in blood and wounds.

Battles like these had become daily routines for the Hunters. Every day, Hunter teams gathered at the Hunter Guild to plan their next steps and decide on the missions they would take. In the initial stages, they would form teams, ensuring a balanced composition between attackers, supporters, and strategists.

Once the formation was set, they would look for missions that matched the team's strength and skills.

These missions were posted by various organizations needing Hunters' help to gather materials, secure areas, or fight dangerous creatures.

One common example was Pertiwi Hospital. As the largest medical institution in the City of Life, they required various raw materials to produce medicines and medical equipment. However, many of these materials could only be obtained from outside the island, sometimes in dangerous locations that only Hunters could reach.

Therefore, they regularly submitted missions to the Hunter Guild, hoping these adventurers would collect large quantities of materials.

It wasn't just Pertiwi Hospital; other organizations also contributed by offering missions. One such organization was the Material Procurement Organization, which focused on collecting and selling raw materials to various other organizations.

They frequently posted missions to hunt rare materials to meet the ever-increasing market demand. The materials collected by the Hunters were not just for medical needs but also for construction, technological research, art, and even fashion.

For Hunters, joining missions wasn't just about earning rewards or payments. There was a sense of pride in helping fellow humans, ensuring that the human race continued to grow and become stronger. Humans are social creatures, and the need for mutual assistance is part of their very essence.

Meanwhile, on Lein Island, specifically in the City of Life, Lein's private car slowly stopped in front of a magnificent building.

This building was unlike any other—modern with shiny silver walls that reflected sunlight, adding an elegant impression. The transparent glass surrounding the structure was as clear as crystal, making the entire building appear open yet still exuding an aura of mystery. This grand building was the Origin Laboratory, the most advanced technological research center on Lein Island.

The top of the building was adorned with a large dome made of glass, showcasing its interior clearly from the outside. Inside the dome, a massive metal plate rotated slowly, symbolizing innovation and technological advancement. This plate was not just a decoration but one of the most crucial components of the laboratory's mechanism, powered by crystal energy as its primary source.

Lein stepped out of his car calmly, assisted by his personal driver. He gazed at the large building before him, a symbol of progress that functioned not just as a laboratory but also as a technological hub that would determine the future of Lein Island and humanity.

At the entrance, an old man in a white scientist's uniform stood waiting. His long robe draped down, and his clear glasses emitted an aura of wisdom. His face was lined with wrinkles of experience, but his eyes were still sharp, as if he had been through countless studies and experiments.

Again, Lein slightly frowned when he saw the status panel of the old man in front of him.

[Status]

- Name: Aris

- Level: 23

- Race: Human from the Blue Planet

- Power Core: Player

- Rank: Tier-2

Yes, the old man waiting for him was a Tier-2 ruler. It was easy to imagine how strong his background was. Even if he had spent his time doing research, he still managed to level up to 23 and become a Tier-2 ruler.

Seeing Lein getting closer, the old scientist greeted him and shook Lein's hand warmly. Although he had a high background and position at the Origin Laboratory, the person before him was no ordinary man but the owner of the island they were on.

"Hello, Mr. Lein, welcome... nice to meet you," the old man greeted with a warm smile.

Lein wasn't rude; he shook the old man's hand and returned the greeting.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Aris," Lein said casually. He already knew Mr. Aris's name because his staff had briefed him about every detail of his visits. The report mentioned that the person who would be guiding him was Mr. Aris, the head of the mecha technology department.

Yes, one of the primary research areas of the Origin Laboratory was mecha technology.

"Please, Mr. Lein," Mr. Aris said as he immediately invited Lein to follow him toward the entrance of the grand Origin Laboratory.

The automatic doors opened smoothly, revealing an interior filled with advanced technology.
