XG 128 - Not wanting to lose his hard-earned muscles

Wong Xue Guo went to do another gene activation rate testing, and since Miu was here, they got the result quickly again. Miu had truly worked hard.

The directors and senior researchers gathered for a meeting, including Wong Xue Guo, the subject of their conversation. However, not all were in attendance as most were needed to keep an eye on the beta experiment of gene awakening that had started two days ago.

The question as to why Chen Yibo ate dry biscuits was answered.

The testers needed a lot of food to successfully activate their genes, and most of them tend to eat more than eat less to avoid failing the awakening. Thus, everyone had to prioritize the food for the beta testers, no matter how disheartening it was. As the son of one of the directors and the founder of the lab, Chen Yibo does not need to, but he still kindly volunteered his food.

To Wong Xue Guo's joy, her experiment was a success. Her activation rate had jumped to forty-seven percent!

Director Chen was reading her health report as he shared his thoughts. "Woojin's ability is similar to creating a stimulus similar to a life-threatening event that triggered the Alpha genes naturally. His ability to bring out a person's fear is similar to a person facing dangerous events personally."

Miu had awakened her ability in a car accident, which was the same accident that claimed her parents' lives.

Grandpa Song does not remember exactly when he had gotten his good luck ability but guessed it was from a bad motorcycle accident.

There was no valid justification as to why Wong Xue Guo's activation percentage would increase after being healed by Suzie Yap. It could also be a delayed reaction, unstabilized aftermath of being exposed to Woojin's ability. Either way, they could only wait for Suzie Yap's return before they could test if her ability would be helpful in activating the Alpha gene.

Chen YiWen tapped a copy of Wong Xue Guo's report on the table. "Now, we must take note of any side effects using this method of activation. Currently, Xue Guo has no decline in her physical health, but her bones are getting stronger with her healing speed getting a little bit faster. The most obvious decline would be her mental health."

Everyone in the meeting room immediately turned to look at Wong Xue Guo, who smiled unfazed. "I can withstand it. My mentality isn't that bad. Since my Alpha gene had awakened halfway, it would only be natural to use me to test whether Woojin's ability could completely activate my gene."

"She is indeed right. And she looks fine to me," said Director Choi, also Choi Yerim's grandfather. "It is better to continue using a person that has been exposed to this method halfway than asking another person to try."

Being an eighteen year old and without her guardian around, no one could veto Wong Xue Guo's decision. As for Chin Chun, his silence indicated he did not disapprove of her decision. So Chen Yibo could not prevent her from participating in the experiment. He glanced at his elder brother for help, and only got a tiny head shake.

Even if Wong Xue Guo wanted to immediately fly to her parents to help them, she was more useful in awakening her genes than not. So she decided to patiently finish solving the mystery of gene activating under the exposure of Woojin's ability.

"Woojin is allowed to stay if he agrees to help with the experiment?" Teacher Jang asked in joy. "I will talk to him!"

"Teacher Jang, do make sure he understands that if he refuses, or plans to do something against us after agreeing, we will not spare him and you," Chin Chun notified in advance.
