I Am A Notorious Hidden Boss In The Alternate World

Chapter 213 - Body Tempering Solution



"Master, how can washed clothes be as good as brand new clothes? No matter how you wash them, there will still be some remnant stains left behind. It will never be as good as something new," Fenriri said. 

"Oh, believe me. Humans are perfectionists, and our technology has come a long way. As long as it\'s a physical stain, it can be complete removed with chemicals. However, a spiritual stain is impossible to remove." 

"Why are spiritual stains impossible to remove?" Fenriri asked curiously.

"Because even if something is absolutely clean, it will never clean as long as you think it is dirty," Albion stated calmly. 

"It\'s the same for an innocent man being charged with heinous crimes and locked behind bars. Even if his innocence is later proven true, he will never be considered truly innocent by everyone. There will always be a distrusting group."

After Albion spoke, Fenriri was left with a ruminating look as she thought over his words. 

He eventually took the opportunity to leave with Francis.

Sometime later, they arrived inside the biogenetic research laboratory. 

After passing through several security-encrypted gateways and taking an advanced elevator shaft down into the undergrounds, they finally reached the core of the facility.

"I was expecting a secret base, but I did not expect the underground space to be this vast," Albion commented indifferently, contrary to his surprise. 

"This place was not that big when we discovered it, but it quickly expanded in the past 3 months and continues to grow even larger with each passing moment that it reached the stronghold\'s underground space," Francis explained.

Numerous vials of green solution could be seen on one side, while cages filled with strange insects were seen on the other.

In the center ahead was a wide-open chasm that seems to stretch on for eternity, and a plethora of plants and exotic vegetations grew along the ground.

"Is this another of the Second Wave Dimension Rift?" Albion inquired with interest. 

"I would like to say so, but no, this chasm is different from the Dimensional Rifts, Boss. Dimensional Rifts are portals to other worlds, but this one isn\'t one of them. We\'ve sent drones to explore the bottom, but there\'s no portal or anything like that." 

"In fact, the chasm is not as enormous as it seems. It\'s just a really steep pit with a rocky bottom. The problem is that these insects and plethora of unique vegetations are spawning inside as if they are just springing into existence."

As Francis explained, Albion\'s interest grew. 

"I suppose you are all puzzled why space is expanding and where the extra mass is coming from after checking the geographics?" Albion questioned. 

Francis was quickly stunned.

"Yes, that\'s exactly right, Boss!" He admitted before asking with surprise, "How did you come up with such assumptions after such a short explanation with limited information, Boss?"

"Well… you can say that I\'ve read a lot of books…" Albion answered strangely. 

Francis did not seem to notice his expression and exclaimed with praise, "So Boss likes to read a lot of books on science. Mostly physics and geology, I presumed?" 

"Ahem, no." Albion coughed and said, "They\'re just cultivation novels written by various allnovelfull authors… There are some hardworking ones, lazy ones, \'sickly\' ones, even complete cucks and dishonest authors." 

"Though I still read their novels since it\'s good despite that—but of course, they don\'t get my support."

"…What?"

Francis\'s admiring expression suddenly froze. 

Shortly after he recovered slightly, he said with a dumb look, "Boss must joking. How can cultivation novels provide any useful knowledge on physics and geology—or any useful knowledge for the matter?"

"Hm?" 

Albion immediately frowned and gave Francis a disappointed look. 

"Your mind is too narrow, Francis…not enough to reach the apex," Albion stated coolly. He wanted to say that.

Shortly after, he began imparting his words of wisdom. 

"Don\'t look down on cultivation novels or any other novels either. Each book contains its own set of knowledge hidden within. It\'s up to the readers whether they can identify, comprehend, and apply them."

"We, as readers, are constantly in a state of learning when we are reading. For example, if we read a terribly written book that makes us want to butcher the author alive, we will at least know it is trash and belongs in the bin," Albion casually said. 

Francis\'s lips twitched. 

He was uncertain how that could be regarded as useful knowledge, but it was definitely not the kind of knowledge he wanted to waste time learning...

"I see…" he uttered speechlessly.

"Anyway, it seems like the world layers are overlapping and converging by the looks of it," Albion concluded calmly before shifting his gaze to the vials of green solutions on a nearby table.

"So, what is this green liquid?" 

As Albion asked, he reached his hand into the open vial to study the green solution with his sense of touch. 

However, Francis\'s eyes quickly widened before he cried with alarm, "Boss, those green solutions are very corrosive! You\'ll lose your entire hand with a single touch!"

Plip! 

Albion\'s hand made contact with the green solution before he felt it fizzing with lukewarm temperature. 

<+1 body tempering defense>

<+1 body tempering defense>

<+1 body…>

The notifications sounded in his mind.

"Oh, this green liquid stuff is not bad. Taking a bath in this thing will probably provide even greater benefits," Albion casually commented before he asked, "But I wonder how it tastes?"

Francis was shocked when he saw the boss\'s perfectly fine hand before receiving an even greater shock when the boss took a sip. 

<+1 poison immunity>

<+1 poison immunity>

<+1 poison…>

The notification sounded again. 

However, this time, Albion\'s face slightly flushed red before he exclaimed, "Water! Get me water! Damn, this thing is so spicy! I don\'t do spicy!"

\'That\'s it?! Just spicy!?\' Francis screamed in his heart while looking at the boss like he was looking at a monster.

Just what was this person\'s body made of?!
