Ian smirked. "You're a funny one, Ms. Fisher. He may be special, but don't speak of him like he's my equal."
He was clearly unaware that Frank had saved Alda. It was a big world, and Frank's field was not modern medicine, so it was not surprising that Ian remained oblivious.
"Then why don't you test your skills against his?" Sue asked, amused.
She really held contempt against Ian's haughty attitude, whether toward herself or Frank.
"Let's see if this survives this first." Ian shrugged, not worried about Sue's challenge—he had no hopes for this experiment like the rest of the bigwigs.
Regeneration sounded like the fantasy it was from the get-go, and he would certainly like to see what Igor could do against that!
That was when the red light outside the lab lit up, signaling the start of the experiment.
Everyone turned to look, fully focused as Frank was inserted into a see-through glass box. He was covered in needles, which were injecting him with fluids of weird colors.
Seemingly picking up on the curious new energy, Frank's ring began to glow blue in resonance!
At the same time, Frank returned to that void, but this time, the golden dragon Sue spoke of was hovering up in the air, studying him.
It was Frank who spoke first. "You're the spiritron vein?"
The golden dragon laughed. "You could say that… Though it's you and I combined, to be precise!
He hated guessing games—since he encountered the spiritron vein anyway, he would like to know what it was planning.
"You're right about one thing. My power is no different from science, though humans now view the mystics like how people of an older time viewed the cosmic bodies. But eventually, they'd figure out how it works.
"For myself, I require endless energy, and the most ideal option to replenish it for now is nuclear energy. It's a pity I have no idea how to adapt to it."
"Nuclear energy?"
Frank appeared surprised, not by the spiritron vein's words but because he remembered a person.
