I CAN UPGRADE MY TALENT IN EVERYTHING

Chapter 37 Research Madman: Brick Norty



-General's POV-

Brick looked at Fein and quietly evaluated what type of person he was based on his appearance.

'He looked refined and elegant. I can also sense a vague aura of confidence in him.'

"So you are the Researcher that developed the machine that can detect the talent of Individuals when it comes to Degu energy?" Fain asked inadvertently in wonder.

Fain looked at the Big Guy in front of him. He has tanned skin and messy hair just like what a mad scientist in his mind would look like. The only thing he found hard to believe is the muscular build he possessed. After all, shouldn't a scientist have a frail physique? Well, never mind he himself has a good physique. He chuckled at the silly thought for a moment.

Brick looked a little embarrassed but also proud to hear his achievement. After all, if not for the technology that he developed. The human kingdom would have trouble discovering those who are capable of wielding the strange energy when it first manifested.

Due to the dire need for warriors to fight the animals that suddenly became wild beasts. Human firepower was effective at first but as the days passed. The wild beast became even more threatening than even the latest thermal weapons can't deal with them. After all, the truly strongest weapon of mankind can't be used because they are too damaging to the environment.

Fortunately, it was discovered that the monster's abnormality was due to the strange energy that causes their mutation. The Humans were ecstatic at first and tried to forcibly manipulate it on their own. The result is tragic. Some humans who volunteered for the trial mutated uncontrollably becoming a mutilated monster capable of massacring a battalion of soldiers.

The humans played it safe after learning it the hard way. The influential humans of various kingdoms became united for the first time because their interests were aligned with each other and the threat of wild beast is like a sword of Damocles hanging above their head ready to harvest their life at any time.

They furiously supported and funded dozens of research groups around the world focusing on studying the compatibility of humans and the strange energy they called "Degu". They aren't helpless because several humans suddenly gained strange abilities and they are also capable of growth. This sudden appearance of superpowers is like a light of hope in the midst of the Abyss for the Humans.

The only problem is they are too rare. The probability of a person awakening Degu energy is lower than they previously imagined and they are also incapable of finding out awaken persons. After all, a person with ability doesn't have a significant difference from a normal person except for their leaking aura which was undetectable with the naked eye.

That was when Brick came into the picture. He was known as the Research Madman because he would do anything for research even at the cost of his life. It was even said by one of his family members that when he was sleeping he was muttering some strange scientific formulas. Furthermore, in his basement are fields with strange items and inconceivable animal body parts that he says for "Research Purposes".

But the same person was also the one who invented the machine that can determine the Degu energy amount of a person which flipped the table of the precarious situation of Humans at that time. He proved that his madness for research is his enthusiasm for finding the truth.

Thanks to his contribution, the number of fighters that were discovered had increased four-fold from the previous amount. The research on Degu Energy also made a progress slowly.

"I am your assigned partner, I have heard about the item you gave that can enhance the human physique significantly. My name is Brick Norty by the way." Brick's deep voice carried a unique intellectual air as he bowed slightly.

'This man is more than meets the eye, he looks goofy but I think that it should only be a facade to hide his true face..' Fein noted this on his mind.

It's not that he was paranoid but it's the right attitude to never judge a person in the way they project themselves because it might be a deliberate move by the other party to show what he wants to show to you. Fain has learned this the hard way in his past life. It was also the reason that Fain became a skeptic of people around here. This resulted in him slowly becoming more withdrawn, he isolated himself from the people he deemed friends. It was too late when he realize it.

Fain's eyes became nostalgic and deep, After remembering that scene he couldn't help but clenched his fist tightly. But after a moment he quickly calmed down and breathed slowly.

This didn't escape Brick's eyes. He hesitated for a moment before asking. "Are you okay?"

"Sorry I just remembered some prank that happened in the past" Fain nonchalantly brushed the matter with a joking tone.

"Okay, Umm... So what field of study are we going to do?" This time Brick's face showed madness as if he was ready to dissect a body at any time.

Fain suddenly felt a chill crawling in his back 'Could I still back out? This person doesn't look reliable at all.'

,m He thought with a wary smile.

"Well, we will solely be focused on human genes and probably also delve on that mutated beast."

Hearing the term human genes. Brick's excited face slowly calms down. His face was red and looks like a person who had drunk three bottles of liquor. He looks intoxicated.

"Sorry, I was just a bit excited... I also had some background in Biotechnology. You can rest assured that I would be able to provide a good amount of assistance." Said with certainty.

Fain looked at his new partner with interest and responded calmly. "I have trust with Viscount Vladimir. Just by your achievement, it can be seen that you are a rigorous person. Have pleasant cooperation."

Fain offered a handshake with a smile which Brick gladly returned back with enthusiasm.

No one knows that this scene would become a historic moment that would make the world upside down. The two greatest scientists in the future single-handedly turned the tables with their immense contributions. Million of people would look back reminiscing the glorious era with awe and respect in their hearts
