Man at the top of the food chain

Three days later, a military hospital somewhere in Tianjin.

Xia Yunyun looked at Xia Liekong on the bed, silent.

During this period of time, Xia Yunyun came to the ward to visit Xia Liekong almost every day, but it was a pity that Xia Liekong looked like a vegetable. Since the last time he woke up, there was no sign of waking up. Although Xia Yunyun was anxious, she had no way to help.

While she was taking care of Xia Liekong, the door of the ward behind her was opened. Xia Yunyun turned around and found that the person who came was Li Anping.

"You are here?" Xia Yunyun stood up and looked at Li Anping a little stiffly. At this time, Li Anping, whether in status or power, was too far away from Xia Yunyun, so he was no longer as open as before.

"Yeah." Li Anping nodded, walked to the bed, and put a box of fruit basket on the bedside cabinet.

"I'm sorry, I've been busy lately, and I just found time to visit him now."

"It's okay. If you hadn't supported my grandfather, he would have been transferred to another hospital by now." Xia Yunyun looked at Li Anping sincerely. When she saw the other's eyes, she couldn't help but lower her head and whispered, "I've wanted to thank you for a long time."

The two said a few more words, but Xia Yunyun seemed to have grown up overnight. Every word she said to Li Anping was no longer as reckless as before. But even Li Anping could feel the resentment that could not be revealed.

"Where have you been living recently?" Xia Yunyun mustered up the courage to say, "I still have your room at home. Aren't you coming back to live?"

"Uh..."

Just when Li Anping felt that this question was a little difficult to answer, Scorpion outside the door suddenly walked in and leaned over to say a few words to Li Anping. Since Li Anping reorganized the Dragon Bird Guards, Scorpion has been following Li Anping as an assistant.

After hearing what Scorpion said, Li Anping frowned.

Xia Yunyun saw it and said, "If you have something urgent, go first."

Li Anping nodded: "It's a little troublesome. Then I'll go first. If you need any help, contact me directly."

After that, Li Anping took Scorpion away, but before leaving the ward, he suddenly stopped and turned to Xia Yunyun and said, "Before Xia Liekong fell asleep, he told me that he would fall asleep to heal his wounds. I don't think he lied to me." After saying this, Li Anping left without looking back.

Xia Yunyun was left alone, looking at the ward with a look of melancholy on her face.

...

Li Anping walked quickly in the ward, and Scorpion beside him said hurriedly: "A total of 50 Dragon Bird Guards were sent out to capture superpower criminals across the country. But the five team members who went to Gushan City have lost contact for more than 24 hours."

Li Anping said without looking back: "Let Liu Sheng arrange it and send someone to find out what happened thoroughly for me."

Scorpion nodded to show that he understood, and then said: "The location of the Biological Research Institute has been selected, and the equipment has been basically arranged, but there are some problems. Mr. Wei asked you to take a look."

"I understand." Li Anping walked quickly towards the hospital gate. Regarding the Biological Research Institute, he has handed it over to Wei Zhun's people. Everyone in charge of this matter has been monitored by Li Qian. Those who are suspected of having problems will be directly eliminated. Daxia Dragon Bird did not send any staff to help. Only ten people were selected from the Dragon Bird Guards to be responsible for defense work.

Every six months in the future, ten people will be selected from the Dragon Bird Guards to take turns to be responsible for the work of the Biological Research Institute.

Just as Li Anping was about to walk out of the hospital gate, a voice suddenly sounded from behind, calling Li Anping.

A figure rushed out from the corridor quickly, and wherever he passed, a gust of wind blew all the people around him to and fro. It was not until the figure appeared in front of Li Anping that he showed his original figure.

"How long do you plan to let us rest?" Sun Hao looked at Li Anping and asked. His arm, which was originally vaporized by the Thunder Emperor, was now hit by a metal prosthesis, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

"Don't take me with you, I still want to rest for another year or two." Qian Duoduo said weakly in the wheelchair, and the wheelchair moved automatically without wind, like a small electric car, and drove towards the two people under the push of telekinesis. In the battle with the Thunder Emperor, his body was struck by lightning, and his lower body was completely paralyzed.

Li Anping looked at the two and smiled: "It seems that you have recovered well."

"You are not the only one working hard." Sun Hao showed a confident smile. He stretched out his hand and a trash can in the distance suddenly began to shake violently, then suddenly flew up and was caught by Sun Hao's mechanical arm with one hand.

Li Anping was surprised: "Electromagnetic force?"

Sun Hao nodded: "Yes, I am holding my breath to find trouble with Yanlong Pioneer. Although Lei Di was killed by you, the hatred between me and Qian Duoduo cannot be let go."

Li Anping smiled happily and said: "Okay, then you can go directly to the base to report to Liu Sheng today. There are many things to do next."

...

Two hours later, Li Anping came to a suburban base of Daxia Longque.

One kilometer away, barbed wire, various bunkers, and fortifications have been set up. In addition to ten Longque guards, there are also a thousand regular troops in the base, which can be regarded as solid as an iron barrel.

Li Anping originally wanted to build a new base as a biological research institute, but now time is too tight and pressure from all sides requires him to have more powerful strength.

So he directly selected one of the several bases of Daxia Longque as the future location of the Biological Research Institute. On the surface, it is researching the evolution of ability users, medical equipment and other projects, but secretly it is carrying out the cloning project of ability users. Of course, only the core researchers at the base would know this.

Moreover, all personnel in the base are monitored by Li Anping using Li Qian's abilities. There are ten more dragon bird guards guarding the area. If anything happens, they will notify Li Anping via satellite encrypted phone.

At present, neither the nine royal families nor other forces know Li Anping's true purpose of opening this biological research institute.

In a laboratory on the 12th floor underground of the institute.

Li Anping and a white-haired old man were walking and talking, while Wei Zhenzhen stayed on the ground floor waiting for Li Anping's summons. Even he, so far, does not know Li Anping's purpose of setting up such a biological research institute, he is only responsible for the preparatory work.

"It's unbelievable. If you hadn't told me, I would never have believed that there are people with abilities in this world." The white-haired old man said with enthusiasm: "Copy people with abilities, clone their abilities, once this experiment If we succeed, the entire human society will make leaps and bounds, and world history will change because of us.”

The old man's name is Shi Wen, and he is a top talent in the field of biological inheritance and DNA. However, my previous work had never involved people with abilities. After Wei Zhun's temptation, he was finally invited over at the cost of a high reward, the most complete information on ability users, and research equipment that could respond to requests.

Li Anping nodded. He was not as enthusiastic as the old man in front of him. He just asked lightly: "How did the first experiment go?"

"Come and see!"

Shi Wen became excited and walked quickly to the door of an experimental room. He ran his fingers through the air and saw a wall slowly opening. Behind the wall, there was a strange container like a glass column, which was full of blue. Strange liquid.

'Thunder Emperor' was fully immersed in it at this moment.

Shi Wen looked at the Thunder Emperor in the container with excitement and said: "Where did you get this sample from? His cells are so strange. They can store electricity like an eel, but they are countless times more powerful than an eel. I I roughly calculated that if all the cells in his body were fully charged, he would have as much power as a nuclear power plant."

"You don't have to worry about where he comes from." Li Anping looked at the clone in the container carefully and said dissatisfied: "This clone has no abilities?"

"No." Shi Wen's tone was full of regret: "Did you know that with today's technology, it is very simple to clone a person. It only costs tens of thousands of yuan to have enough equipment and sample DNA. The cost, plus 16 hours of time, we can get a cloned body."

"It's just the body." Shi Wen sighed: "Cloning of ability users is a completely new field for me. I need more time and more materials."

Li Anping said calmly: "Don't worry, you will have more and more materials to research in the future."

"Also, a lot of the equipment and personnel I need haven't been delivered yet. I've made these requests for almost a week."

"Don't worry about this. It just takes some time. We will send it to you soon." Li Anping looked at the clone a few more times, and then said to Shi Wen: "Before that, you first use the instruments here to give me Get some Thunder Emperors in Doklon.”

"Their clones are just incompetent people. What do you want them for?"

"I'm useful, you just have to do what I do."

As if he could hear the coldness in Li Anping's words, Shi Wen stopped digging into the matter. From the moment he came into contact with this plan, he already understood that from now on, his life was completely in the hands of the man in front of him. But as long as he completed this cross-century research, he had no regrets.

…

On the underground floor of the research institute, Wei Zhun looked at Li Anping with some anxiety.

Li Anping asked: "What's going on? Why haven't the equipment and instruments requested below arrived for so long?"

Wei Zhunwei said: "We had already ordered it, but suddenly a group of people came out and took away the things. We originally wanted to order more, but the result seemed to be against us. Most of the high-end instruments were bought. Out of stock."

Li Anping frowned and said, "Forget it, I will send someone to investigate the instrument. Where are the researchers?"

"Most of them have agreed to join us, but for some I may need to use some means." Wei Zhun said uncertainly.

"If it's not too important, don't worry about it. As for the others..." Li Anping touched his chin and said, "Just go ahead and do it. In this way, I will send some more people to you." He turned around and called Scorpion outside the door. He ordered: "You select two people from the Dragon Bird Guards in the base. They will be responsible for helping Wei Zhun recruit researchers until all the necessary personnel are present."

Suddenly, Li Anping's phone rang, and Li Qian's voice came out: "Sir, your brother and sister-in-law in Zhongdu were attacked by robbers. Qin Yong from Emerald City was also shot."
