Chapter 327: Convergence
Chapter 327
To be honest, wouldn't Professor Sotos be considered a core figure in the Viper Group no matter how you look at it?
How could there possibly be not a single important item in such a large office?
It's completely unscientific.
Thinking this, Chloe became even more enthusiastic in her search.
She kept glancing back at the sleeping Professor Sotos, but eventually, still afraid he might suddenly wake up, she cautiously cast a sleeping spell on him.
Double protection, foolproof.
Chloe went to lock the office door, and after returning, she became even more uninhibited.
Lo and behold, she actually found some good stuff.
It was a vial of potion.
Light green in color, with a very clear and transparent consistency, she didn't know what it was used for.
But...
Looking at the layers upon layers of safes, Chloe felt this must be something good, and without a second thought, she pocketed it.
If she found it, it was hers.
After securing the light green potion, Chloe changed her focus and began searching through the desk.
She was still a bit nervous, after all, Professor Sotos was sleeping on the couch opposite the desk.
Chloe tiptoed over, pulled open the drawer, and took out a stack of documents, looking through them one by one.
She originally thought she wouldn't find anything useful, until she came across an experiment report from over a decade ago.
On the yellowed and blurred pages, Chloe's name was actually written.
Her fingers tightened, and she looked again at the date marked on the document.
Fourteen or fifteen years ago, that would have been when she was about five years old.
At that time, she had just arrived in this world and found herself kidnapped by the Viper Group in a car.
According to previous deductions, the poison in her body was administered by the Viper Group at that time.
So this document...
Chloe steadied herself and continued reading.
The more she read, the more startled she became. This document was clearly the plan drawn up by the Viper Group regarding the poison in her body!
Holy crap, it really was related to her.
Chloe continued flipping through, trying to find the antidote for the poison in her body.
Fortunately, while there was no antidote, there was a formula for one.
Chloe didn't even care if Professor Sotos in the office had woken up, she directly scanned the antidote formula at the end of the document with her terminal and sent it to Xavier and Ren Yunying.
With the formula, how could they not produce an antidote?
Once she had the antidote, she could take down the entire Viper Group in one fell swoop.
Chloe calmed down, stacked the documents neatly by category, and put them back in the drawer.
Then she stood up.
She turned to look at Professor Sotos on the couch.
He was still asleep.
This Professor Sotos, who exactly was he?
How did it feel like he was somehow different from those mad scientists, yet he was undeniably working for the Viper Group.
Still staying here at such an old age...
Chloe couldn't figure it out.
She sat down, lifted the spell, and continued copying the book along the previous pen marks.
After copying about ten pages, Professor Sotos finally slowly woke up.
He looked up at Chloe and finally said:
"Alright, you can stop now."
Chloe, who had long since tired of writing, immediately put down her pen and turned around to look obediently at Professor Sotos.
A weary expression appeared on his aged face as he said:
"I have an experiment in the middle of the night, come and assist me."
Chloe pretended to be troubled:
"This... doesn't seem appropriate, my team leader might have something for me to do."
Sotos frowned: "Who's your team leader?"
Chloe smoothly reported a name.
Professor Sotos immediately called that team leader, and his first words were:
"I'm taking the research assistant you sent to deliver documents. From now on, he's my person."

He then hung up with a "bang".
Chloe immediately applauded: "Professor, you're formidable!"
Professor Sotos didn't say anything, just walked towards the office door.
He twisted the handle, then frowned:
"Why is it locked?"
Chloe's heart skipped a beat, but she nonchalantly said:
"I was afraid someone from outside might suddenly come in and disturb you, so I locked it."
Professor Sotos stared at her for a while, then unlocked the door and said flatly:
"No one dares to suddenly enter my office, you don't need to do this in the future."
Chloe, feeling guilty: "Yes, Professor. I'll remember that, Professor."
With that, she followed Professor Sotos out.
For the next few hours, Chloe helped Sotos as his assistant.
She gave him whatever he needed, was incredibly quick-witted, could even anticipate his needs, and could help him with some of the more delicate and detailed small experiments.
As a result, Professor Sotos grew to like Chloe more and more.
When the experiment ended, Chloe was exhausted, but she still had to wear a smile to avoid displeasing Professor Sotos by looking gloomy.
Professor Sotos wiped the sweat from his forehead:
"Well done, young man."
The "young man" Chloe nodded with a smile:
"It's all thanks to your excellent leadership, Professor. I'm just a helper."
"Don't be so modest."
As he spoke, Sotos yawned and went back to his office to sleep.
He instructed Chloe to go back to her own room to sleep as well.
At this time, there was no one left in the laboratory.
Looking at the time, it was three-thirty in the morning.
She sighed, thinking to herself that as an undercover agent, she had no room to sleep in, so she simply walked out of the laboratory openly.
In just half a day, Chloe had become Professor Sotos's personal assistant, her work badge granting her the authority of a professor's special assistant, with free access in and out. In a way, hadn't she achieved a class leap?
Chloe chuckled, ran to the small grove of trees and found the still unconscious werewolf.
After gently slapping him awake, the werewolf opened his eyes and suddenly saw a researcher in a white coat, which scared him so much he almost wet himself.
Chloe: "..."
She revealed her true voice: "It's me."
Hearing the familiar voice, the werewolf finally calmed down, looking at her with lingering fear:
"Is... is it really you?"
"It really is me." Chloe didn't bother to waste more words with him, saying, "Come with me, I'll get you out of here."
Hearing this, the werewolf was overjoyed and quickly got up from the ground to follow her.
Following the coordinates on her terminal, Chloe led the werewolf to where her companions were located.
Seeing their shadows from afar, Daniel was a bit hesitant to believe it at first, immediately shouldering his ion cannon.
As they got closer, Daniel became more afraid and was about to pull the trigger to attack.
It was Anderson who stopped him in time:
"Don't move, it's the young miss."
Daniel looked at him in confusion:
"How do you know it's the young miss? That face doesn't look like her at all..."
Anderson gave him a sidelong glance: "Intuition."
Daniel's head was full of question marks.
It wasn't until Chloe came up to them, looking at Daniel with a forced smile, and spoke in her real voice:
"What, you want to fire at me?"
Only then did Daniel crouch down and play dead.
