Xia Xu still attaches great importance to Hong Yan.
When he was taking a break afterwards, he also saw the video clip of Hong Yan's fight against the wolf giant, and even used technical means to find the surveillance footage of Hong Yan's transformation in the mall.
The fact that he is willing to risk his life to try to transform despite being extremely lacking in nutrition shows first of all that he has good character.
Of course, the most important thing is the ability he demonstrated. He is a "normal person" who can transform and increase his size like a beastman.
Hong Yan's transformation was not the kind of beastly transformation that a beastman would undergo. His appearance did not change much, except that his body became larger and some details and outlines changed slightly.
In fact, from a cursory look at some experimental materials, we can know that Hong Yan, the protagonist, is indeed the most perfect work of the Gardner organization.
He has both the muscle enhancement of the giant glands and the transformation mechanism of the beastman, so he does not need to grow his body to an inhuman size.
The giant's size is an advantage in areas that require strength, such as combat, but it is not so good in everyday life.
Not to mention the strange looks from people around you, your actions alone will be greatly affected.
This influence is reflected in all aspects and meanings.
The movements will inevitably become clumsy due to the body size.
An overly eye-catching shape can leave a deep impression at first glance, making it difficult to keep a low profile and even arousing fear.
All kinds of equipment, vehicles, and even daily clothing need to be tailor-made, and movement in indoor spaces is restricted. For a giant test subject, even a squat toilet cubicle might get itself stuck.
Therefore, although Xia Xu attached great importance to the giant gland technology, he had never considered making such a transformation on himself from the beginning.
He acquired the giant gland technology mainly to build up his own power or as a commodity to be sold.
But if it is Hong Yan's giant transformation technology that can be transformed freely, it would be different.
The flexible and controllable transformation ability is worth a lot of effort. It is more suitable as a commodity or for training your own people.
"I heard you wanted to see me?"
After listening to He Qing, Xia Xu went straight to Hong Yan's bedroom and pushed the door open.
"You were the one who stopped the wolf giant?"
Hong Yan lay weakly on the bed, with several bottles of glucose hanging on his hands, but his eyes were full of vigilance and ferocity.
The ferocity was not directed at humans, but rather like the threatening whimper of a young animal, like a shell protecting itself.
"That's right."
Xia Xu nodded slightly, pulled a chair over and sat down leisurely, looking at him with interest: "You came to me just to ask this?"
"No normal person can be a match for that monster."
Hong Yan's expression gradually darkened, and his vigilance and suspicion became even stronger: "Even ordinary firearms are useless against wolf giants, not to mention that your men said you still used cold weapons in hand-to-hand combat."
The subtext of these words is actually doubting Xia Xu's identity.
After hearing that man say that his boss finally stopped the wolf giant from wreaking havoc and rescued himself, he was shocked, but his first reaction was actually suspicion.
Ordinary thermal weapons are completely ineffective against wolf giants.
Not to mention close combat, even this 'monster' created by the Gardner Organization is no match for the wolf giant. It would be even more impossible for an ordinary person, who would probably be beaten to death in the first encounter.
In this case, the so-called 'BOSS' mentioned by an unknown person, especially one who looks so young, claimed to have stopped the wolf giant and rescued himself, which is very suspicious.
He didn't doubt that he could stop the wolf giant and bring him back, because such a thing couldn't be fake. What he doubted was the identity of this man.
Anyone who can fight against the wolf giant head-on and win must be stronger than him, which means he can't be an ordinary person, but only a biochemical product that has also undergone various messed-up modifications.
He had never heard of anyone other than the Gardner Organization that had this kind of black technology, general biotechnology.
In fact, before I experienced all this myself, it seemed that these things could only be seen in science fiction movies, and I never thought that I would experience them in person in my lifetime.
A biochemical product that is stronger than himself, who just stopped the runaway wolf giant at the right time, and was very kind-hearted to rescue himself who had already lost consciousness.
This made him doubt that all this was probably a drama directed and performed by Gardner's organization.
He sent out biochemical experimental subjects to prevent the situation from getting worse and to retrieve the runaway wolf giant, then took the opportunity to bring him back, deceived his trust and continued to complete the experiment.
This kind of simple, practical and best of both worlds thing is definitely something that the Gardner Organization can do.
He has encountered this kind of deliberate approach to gain trust more than once during this period. Many times, he barely broke through the siege by relying on his transformation ability and the other party's unwillingness to kill him. Naturally, he learns from every failure.
"Gardner is not the only one in this world."
Looking at Hong Yan's wary and suspicious look, Xia Xu instantly guessed what he was thinking. He shook his head and sneered, saying, "First of all, let me introduce myself. I am the boss of Xinghai Group, which owns several technology companies such as Xinghai Biology and Xinghai Industry."
"Are you showing off your power?"
Hong Yan's expression darkened.
"No, I'm just saying that I have enough money to splurge and equip myself, and I have a large number of people to do technological research and development for me."
Xia Xu chuckled and continued, "Biotechnology does have its advantages, but it is definitely not invincible. High temperature, toxins, suffocation, electric shock, there are too many ways to kill you, and modern technology is far from being as weak as you think."
In order to verify his words, Xia Xu pulled out the thermal energy sword hanging on his waist, stretched it out with a flick of his hand, and activated the high temperature mode at the same time.
Buzz!
The blazing red lightsaber looked particularly dazzling in the dim room.
"It's a high-strength alloy, and the temperature can easily rise to 2,000 to 3,000 degrees. Not only you, but even the wolf giant can't withstand it."
Xia Xu casually swung his knife and spoke calmly, the tip of the knife finally stopped slightly close to his neck:
"As for the other things, the force of more than ten tons and the defense against bullets, these are indeed difficult for biological organisms to achieve, but they are actually very simple things for machines."
Feeling the sharpness of the blade and the terrifying high temperature coming from the air, Hong Yan easily and wisely accepted this statement for the time being.
"Forget it. It's a bit troublesome to explain all this to you. Let's use a simpler method to build trust."
Xia Xu thought about it, and was too lazy to waste any more words, so he threw his phone over:
"You've been hiding from the outside world for a while, so you probably haven't had a chance to learn about the outside world. You can look up what you want to know. Also, there's Dr. Cui Xinghua's phone number in your address book. He's currently working for me. You can talk to him."
Cui Xinghua was the key figure in rescuing Hong Yan and others from Gardner Mental Hospital, and he almost sacrificed himself. The trust between the two is definitely enough.
Letting them communicate is more effective than wasting a thousand words.
"Doctor Cui?"
As expected, Hong Yan was slightly stunned when he heard Cui Xinghua's name.
He escaped from Gardner Mental Hospital and was being hunted down, so it was impossible for him to have a cell phone in his hand. Even if he had one, he wouldn't dare to carry it with him.
Therefore, not only was he ignorant of the situation in the outside world, he was also pessimistic about Cui Xinghua falling back into Gardner's hands. If Xia Xu hadn't mentioned it, he would have even thought that Dr. Cui was dead.
At this moment, he didn't care about anything else. He picked up the phone and hurriedly started calling Cui Xinghua.
