Alchemy and Affections

Long Tian, Liu Qian, and Liu Hai found themselves before an imposing, sealed door.

Effortlessly, Liu Hai punched in the code, and within moments, the door slid open.

"Shall we?" he invited.

With that, the trio ventured into the room.

While Liu Qian maintained a poker face, Long Tian couldn't help but be impressed by the space. It was vast, spanning at least 100 cubic meters—enough, if simulated, to accommodate 50 parked cars.

However, it wasn't just the size that caught his eye; it was the room's contents. Within, various plants, weapons, a substantial table laden with chemical bottles, pots of assorted sizes, and creatures ranging from monkeys to mice were scattered about, seemingly subjects of experimentation.

"It seems like you conduct numerous experiments here, Mr. Liu. What have you managed to create?" he inquired.
