Ke Mingshan stood outside the Cultivation Room, focusing on Ji Xinghuo's condition.
He watched the entire process and collected data for every Mutant who came to the Ether Research Institute for the first time. First, for safety—after all, every Mutant that came here needed to be served with utmost care—and second, the collected data was used for research.
He was startled when he heard Ji Xinghuo say, "Increase the gravity."
Twenty tons was already the heaviest barbell in the Cultivation Room, and in a fivefold gravity environment, it was equivalent to 100 tons.
Despite being just a Super Mutant, Ji Xinghuo could lift such a massive weight, and he seemed to do it effortlessly.
The scientific research staff turned their heads and asked, "Director?"
"Proceed as he requested," Ke Mingshan said.
As the energy output from beneath the Cultivation Room increased, generating greater artificial gravity, the number on the wall-mounted screen climbed by one decimal point every second.
