I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Novel - Chapter 54

Chapter 54 Giant

It was 2 am at

East Lake City’s public hospital.

In the corridor of the ward, several doctors and more than ten nurses were surrounded by the families of dozens of patients. The group of people were asking questions about the patients’ conditions non-stop. These patients were the same as Chen Shaojie, and were all imprisoned in the stone chambers in the dungeon. Chen Yiming let everyone out before he left. After most people escaped, the first thing he did was to go to the public hospital to get a physical examination for his cousin.

Chen Yiming’s second uncle and aunt, Father Chen and Mother Chen, were also in the crowd of family members, hoping to hear about Chen Shaojie’s situation as soon as possible.

Chen Yiming and Wang Bowen stood by the window on the stairs of the emergency passage.

Chen Yiming had called Wang Bowen over.

Since it concerned his cousin’s life, he could only brazenly use all the connections he had.

Wang Bowen was silent for a long time before he made his judgment. “It’s highly likely that Professor Fu’s laboratory was involved in this.”

“Professor Fu?”

Wang Bowen explained, “He was a figure who rose to fame in East Lake City several years ago. His influence even exceeded that of a warrior.”

Wang Bowen then told Chen Yiming about Professor Fu’s past in detail.

Professor Fu used to work at a research institute in East Lake City.

Although his martial arts talent was not good, his desire to embark on the path of martial arts had never been extinguished. With his talent in scientific research, he was able to hold up the banner of research for the bloodline warriors in East Lake City.

Since the invasion of the otherworld, scientists from all over the world had tried all kinds of methods to research the bloodline warriors, but they had yet to achieve any substantial breakthroughs. Most of the current bloodline warriors had directly implanted organs from mutant beasts into their bodies.

The success rate of such a method was very low. The bloodline warriors created this way were only able to survive by luck, and the result could not be effectively replicated.

Such cruel experimentation on the human body was naturally taboo and forbidden. Professor Fu was carrying out this type of human experimentation in secret, and he escaped from East Lake City after it got exposed.

“Senior Brother Wang, there’s something I don’t understand. Since Professor Fu doesn’t have any martial arts talent, how could he have escaped so easily? He could even set up a laboratory in the wilderness,” Chen Yiming asked.

Wang Bowen said in a low voice, “This is a very complicated matter. There are many people who have a stake in this. You just need to know that the original intention of a bloodline warrior is to keep the martial arts practitioners in check.”

As he spoke, he was carefully observing if anyone was eavesdropping on their conversation.

This was a very sensitive matter and had not been disclosed to the general public.

“Got it.” Chen Yiming nodded.

“What about my cousin? How did he get involved in the human experiments in just a few short hours? The dungeon doesn’t seem to be a suitable environment for conducting experiments, does it?” Chen Yiming asked. In his previous life, he was a university student who had completed his undergraduate studies, so he still had some basic knowledge.

“Don’t worry, they should have only undergone the early stages of the human experiments. They might have been injected with some kind of drug extracted from mutant beast blood.

For such tests, as long as he was fine back then, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to survive,” judged Wang Bowen.

Chen Yiming was still worried after hearing this.

In the stone chamber that Chen Shaojie was imprisoned in, the rest of the people were in a completely different state from Chen Shaojie.

Chen Shaojie was still unconscious. What else had happened to him? They could only ask him when he woke up.

“Bang!”

Suddenly, a loud sound rang out.

The entire ward was in an uproar. Regardless of whether they were a member of the hospital staff or the patient’s family, all of them were in a mess and looking for a place to hide.

Many people wore fearful expressions, thinking that the hospital had been attacked. They hurriedly ran towards the emergency passage.

“I will go take a look.”

Hearing the commotion, Chen Yiming rushed over to where Father Chen and Mother Chen had been.

He exerted force through the soles of his feet and quickly stepped across the floor. In the blink of an eye, he had exited the stairwell and the emergency passage. Wang Bowen followed closely behind. Exiting the stairwell, they were greeted by the sight of a group of people running wildly in a panic.

Chen Yiming saw Father Chen and Mother Chen in the crowd.

At this moment, Father Chen and Mother Chen looked rather pale and their clothes were all intact. Clearly, they had not been harmed in any way.

He immediately felt relieved.

Then, he looked towards the source of the loud noise.

A figure of about three meters tall was standing at the door of the ward.

The top of his head was almost touching the ceiling, and his clothes and pants were torn open, leaving only a few shreds of cloth hanging from his body.

The wooden door that he had destroyed lay in pieces around him, scattered all over the corridor in the ward.

As he looked at the figure’s face, a sense of familiarity welled up in him.

Wasn’t this his cousin, Chen Shaojie?

Although his face had gotten a little bigger, he could still recognize his familiar face.

“Son, we finally found you. Should we continue running?” Mother Chen asked. “Yiming, why don’t we retreat with the crowd?” Father Chen suggested. The two of them left the crowd and walked to Chen Yiming’s side. They were still short of breath.

Chen Yiming didn’t reply. Instead, he gestured for Father Chen and Mother Chen to look in Chen Shaojie’s direction.

“Is this Shaojie?” Mother Chen turned around and asked in surprise. “I think so. From the face, they look 99% alike,” Father Chen replied. Chen Shaojie was still a little confused.

Due to the memory of being pressed to the ground and captured by someone the previous night, he instinctively wanted to escape the moment he woke up.

With just a light pat, he had broken the wooden door of the ward into pieces.

When he came out of the ward and saw a few figures in white coats among the panicking crowd, he realized that he was in the hospital.

At this moment, he did not dare to move around recklessly. He was afraid that he would cause greater destruction, so he could only stand rooted to the ground and stare blankly.

Chen Yiming walked over and called out, “Shaojie.”

When he spoke to his cousin, he needed to look up. He wasn’t used to it.

“Cousin.” Chen Shaojie lowered his head and looked at Chen Yiming.

In his eyes, the other party was very short, like a child.

Chen Yiming glanced at the ward. Everyone had left.

He went straight in and grabbed a white bedsheet, then came back to pass it to Chen Shaojie so he could cover himself up.

Chen Shaojie’s face turned red, and he almost tore the bedsheet in his haste.

This was a sign that his strength had increased drastically in a short time, and he could not control his body.

“What happened? How did you become like this?” Chen Yiming asked his cousin after he had covered himself with the bedsheet.

“I don’t know either. I woke up like this,” Chen Shaojie replied as he scratched the back of his head.

His huge hand, which was more than twice the size of an ordinary person’s, almost hit the ceiling.

Chen Yiming looked up. Chen Shaojie realized this and carefully lowered his hand.

“Do you remember what happened after you were captured and thrown into the dungeon?” Chen Yiming asked.

“Um… everyone was locked up in the stone chamber. Not long after, someone came in and gave each of us a shot in the arm. A few people wanted to resist and were beaten up badly,” Chen Shaojie described the situation back then.

Wang Bowen walked over and said, “You should be considered extremely lucky. You didn’t even need to go through the human experiments and directly became a bloodline warrior.”

“Bloodline warrior? Human experiments?” Chen Shaojie had countless questions in his heart.

He had not even finished high school when he joined the city patrol.

With his limited knowledge, he could not understand a single word that Wang Bowen said.
