Chapter 233: C225
Natasha went to wash up, while Leon leaned against the bedside. Outside the window, two birds fluttered in, their wings beating softly as if unafraid of humans.
He stretched out his fingers, and two tiny paws latched onto them.
Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!
The two little creatures chirped at Leon, their eyes brimming with affection. A small smile played on his lips as he reached out with his other hand to gently pat their fluffy heads.
"You two are starting the day with so much energy. No need to hunt for bugs or worry about food, huh?"
Chirp! Chirp!
One bird tilted its head, as if understanding his words, then flapped its wings and flew out of the window. The other followed close behind, calling out as if saying goodbye.
Leon watched the pair vanish into the sky, then stretched his neck, stood up, and headed to the bathroom to wash up. After freshening up, he walked downstairs in his shorts and slippers.
On the first floor, Natasha was in the kitchen, wearing his shirt and humming a tune while preparing breakfast. The sight of her back—graceful and enticing—made Leon's heartbeat quicken. Her charm was utterly irresistible.
Unable to hold back, Leon walked up behind her. Natasha, unaware of his intentions, thought he just wanted to cuddle. She gasped in surprise as his hands wrapped around her, pulling her close.
"Leon~~" Natasha's soft voice trailed off as the moment took over them.
What followed was a melody of passion that echoed through the villa, startling a flock of birds outside.
Two hours later, Natasha lay on the sofa, her energy spent, while Leon carried plates from the kitchen. It was hard to tell if the meal he brought was breakfast or lunch.
The two exchanged a glance, basking in the calm after the storm.
"You're insatiable," Natasha teased, poking his forehead with her pale index finger.
Leon grinned but said nothing. His enhanced physique had only amplified his natural instincts. This desire, coupled with Natasha's allure, was an unstoppable force.
Despite her mock annoyance, Natasha felt a twinge of pride. She had found her family again, someone who loved her deeply and gave her a sense of security. She wished this idyllic life could last forever.
But ambition burned within her. She wanted to become stronger, to cultivate loyal warriors for Leon. The very next day, Natasha left on a mission, determined to build a better future.
Leon wasn't disappointed. He knew they had endless days ahead. Instead of returning to the manor, he stepped through a wormhole, arriving at Tianren Seven.
The Angel Hall was resplendent, filled with light and majesty. Leon's figure materialized, and Keisha appeared shortly after.
"Captain Leon," she greeted him.
"What's the status?"
Keisha waved her hand, summoning a holographic projection of a gene sequence. The vibrant chain floated in midair as she began her report.
"According to the Odinson family gene samples we retrieved, there's a 13% overlap with human genes. The remaining 87% represents far superior sequences."
She gestured toward the projection. "Thor Odinson's genetic makeup grants him a remarkably powerful physique. His body density is three times that of an ordinary human, making him immune to viruses, radiation, and toxins. He can traverse the deep sea or outer space without any equipment. His strength, endurance, and durability allow him to withstand explosions, impacts, and extreme temperatures ranging from 9,000 degrees Fahrenheit to near absolute zero. He even has resistance to magic.
"Additionally, his genes contain an incomplete sequence, likely inherited from his mother, the Earth Goddess Gaea."
Keisha's tone turned reverent. "Thor's genes are the most advanced we've analyzed so far. In terms of potential, they rival even angelic genes."
Leon wasn't surprised. The Odinson family's genetic lineage had been refined over generations, culminating in Thor—a prodigy hailed by Odin as the greatest king in their history. Thor's potential surpassed even Odin's, a testament to the perfection of his genetic inheritance.
"Keisha," Leon said, his gaze steady, "we need to use Thor's genes to create a new serum. It could elevate us to an entirely new level of potential."
Keisha nodded without hesitation. "This project rivals the greatest genetic endeavors ever undertaken. We'll need significant computing power."
"Redirect all nonessential resources," Leon ordered. "Suspend other projects. This takes priority."
"Understood," Keisha replied, her expression resolute.
Together, they stood in the Angel Hall, ready to embark on a project that could redefine the limits of evolution.
