Chapter 761: Chapter 761 – Placement
How dangerous was the Saint Child experiment? It was certainly dangerous to other people in this world. After all, the blood transplant experiment itself was very dangerous.
No matter how powerful the King’s Council’s technical level was, there would still be some problems. However, as long as the risk was within a controllable range, many people would be willing to try and join in.
After all, not everyone in this world had the chance to break through. Most people were limited by their bloodlines and could not advance. Under such circumstances, as long as they were given a chance to break through, a large group of people would go crazy and willingly take the risk to join.
For Chen Heng, it was another matter. To him, the risk of the experiment itself was controllable. Therefore, it was fine even if it failed. Hence, there would not be any problems with his ability.
What attracted him was the various precious materials used in the bloodline experiment, just like the bloodline medicine that Jameson had given him and the precious materials collected by the other King’s Council. Again, these materials would be used as experimental materials, this time on Chen Heng and the others.
This was what Chen Heng valued the most. Whether or not the experiment would succeed was not important to Chen Heng, and it might not be able to help him advance to a higher level. However, as long as those materials were absorbed and stored, they would help him advance to a higher level.
By then, the bloodline in his body would also grow and reach another level. Therefore, Chen Heng would not let go of such an opportunity no matter what and would fight for it. Therefore, even if Jameson did not choose Chen Heng to be on the list of the Saint Child’s experiment, as long as Chen Heng knew about it, he would take the initiative to ask to join it.
Grissom was not clear about this. However, he could sense Chen Heng’s determination, so he could not help but feel complicated.
“Forget it.” Looking at Chen Heng, he finally sighed and said, “I’m old. My thoughts are different from yours. Although this experiment is dangerous, maybe you can succeed.” He solemnly said.
“I’m counting on that.” Chen Heng smiled and nodded to Grissom, then left.
Grissom was arranged to be in another prison in the next few days, far away from the sight of his previous acquaintances. It was not difficult for Grissom to take this step once in a while.
After all, Grissom was on the top floor of the minaret, and not everyone could meet him. Other than the daily food and the few servants who took care of his daily life, the others were not familiar with Grissom, nor were they aware of his current situation. This also made it much easier for Grissom to hide, at least without much effort.
After leaving the prison that had imprisoned him for decades, Grissom was placed in a room that Chen Heng had specially bought. It wasn’t too far from the minaret.
Half a month later, before Chen Heng was about to leave the minaret, Grissom’s figure completely disappeared. Even the substitute that had replaced him in the minaret disappeared.
On the surface, this was the reason why Grissom was already dead. However, Chen Heng had created the illusion that Grissom was dead. The reason was that he had used Grissom in his experiments and let him die there.
No one doubted this because previously, Chen Heng had done a lot of experiments and used a lot of death row prisoners. Yet unfortunately, the final results of those death row prisoners were not good. Except for a few lucky ones, most of the experimental subjects died in the experiments one after another.
Grissom had finally died in this place, which made many people sigh. Nonetheless, they did not dare to make trouble for Chen Heng. Chen Heng was Jameson’s favorite, and he was about to participate in the Saint Child Plan.
Who would take the responsibility if holding him accountable at this time caused him to quit? No one. Even if one wanted to hold him accountable, it would be after the experiment failed.
Moreover, Chen Heng treated the people around him quite well. He would always think of them whenever there was any benefit, unlike the indifferent lords in the past. Therefore, the people around him chose to remain silent and let Grissom “die” under their eyes. Just like that, Grissom could leave the dark prison and regain his freedom.
The faint sunlight radiated on a piece of grass, illuminating the surroundings. In the appearance of a middle-aged man, Grissom stood on the grass and looked at the scene unfolding around him. His entire body was trembling slightly as if he was overly excited.
“How many years has it been, how many years has it been…” He looked at the surrounding scenery and felt the warm sunlight. His emotions were exceptionally excited and complicated, “I never thought I would see these things again one day.”
“Of course.” Chen Heng’s voice came from the side, and he said with a gentle smile, “After leaving the minaret this time, you have regained your freedom, Mr. Grissom. I wonder if you have thought about where you will go next?” He looked at Grissom and asked.
Hearing Chen Heng’s words, Grissom could not help but fall into silence. He seemed to be thinking about it. Finally, after a long time, he shook his head with a bitter expression, “I’ve been locked in the minaret for decades. Most of the people I used to know are gone now. I don’t have anywhere else to go. With my current strength, there shouldn’t be any problems as long as I don’t go to the capital of the three great empires.”
Grissom had been alone for decades. The bloodline of the Sun Royal Family had long withered in his generation, and he was the only one with an orthodox bloodline. There were still some clansmen from the other branches, but they were all mortals who had not awakened their bloodline.
Therefore, according to the traditions of this world, they could not be considered Grissom’s clansmen but were only distant relatives. If not for that, Grissom would not have decided to participate in the King’s Council’s experiments back then. Several decades have passed now. Grissom did not know where to go after leaving the minaret.
“If there is no place to go for the time being, I can arrange a place for you.” Chen Heng smiled. “I used to work for Princess Alan of the Violet Empire. I am good friends with many of his subordinates. So if you don’t mind, Mr. Grissom, you can stay there and help me.”
“Oh.” Grissom raised his head and looked at Chen Heng with a surprised expression.
He knew a little about Chen Heng’s background when he had taken the initiative to tell him about it. He knew that Chen Heng had defected from the Violet Prince’s subordinates. However, from the current situation, it didn’t seem that simple.
He couldn’t help but think about it. He didn’t have anywhere to go at the moment. It seemed good that Chen Heng could arrange a place for him, so he didn’t refuse. He just nodded and didn’t say much.
“After arriving there, if you are free, you can also make more friends. It is also not a bad idea to marry another wife.” Chen Heng looked at Grissom’s appearance, then smiled and said, “I understand your thoughts, and I know how you feel. However, sometimes, revitalizing the family may not only be accomplished through force.
Multiplying the clansmen and expanding the number of clansmen is also a good choice. You don’t want us to be the only two clansmen left in the world.” He said.
He wouldn’t have said that if Grissom was in his previous state. However, his condition had improved a lot after the bloodline modification. Now, he no longer looked like an old man but a thin and weak figure, like a dignified middle-aged man.
He still had a long life, enough for him to reproduce and give birth to more clansmen.
“It’s easy to say but not so easy to do.” Grissom shook his head, smiled bitterly, and said, “It’s not easy for a royal family like ours to reproduce. Not everyone is like King Violet, having many children despite such a powerful bloodline.”
He could not help but reveal an envious expression as he mentioned King Violet. King Violet’s ability to reproduce was well-known throughout the entire primogenitor world. He had many children despite the weak reproduction ability within the royal family bloodline.
Among them, there were even three who had awakened the Violet bloodline. This ability to reproduce in this world was an ability that all royal families envied.
“It doesn’t matter.” Chen Heng smiled and said, “Under normal circumstances, it is indeed difficult for royal families to reproduce, but they can intervene through appropriate means to artificially increase the success rate. So as long as you are willing, you can have your children.”
“Oh?” This time, even Grissom could not help but be moved.
No bloodline in this world did not want to have their children. Reproduction was an instinct carved into their bloodlines, and it was also one of the desires in their hearts.
Grissom also had a child when he was young. Unfortunately, although that child grew up successfully, he could not awaken the bloodline belonging to the Sun Royal Family. Therefore he was placed in a certain town. Several decades had passed. Even if his child was still around, he was probably about to die of old age.
However, if he could steadily increase the probability of reproduction and have his child again, Grissom was naturally willing to do so. Moreover, after his previous experiments, Grissom was confident in Chen Heng’s ability in this area.
“Give it a try. Even if it’s useless, there won’t be any harm, right?” Then, looking at Grissom’s appearance, Chen Heng smiled and said.
“That’s true.” Grissom nodded and didn’t say much.
