"I have no interest in telling a dying person my name. If you want to know, then live on."

Just as the ninja in front of her uttered the last word, his body suddenly disappeared, and then a sharp knife appeared in front of Abigail, but Abigail ignored it.

At this moment, the dagger suddenly stopped, unable to advance any further when it was only a few centimeters away from Abigail.

"Damn it, how dare you sneak attack!" On the other side, the armored gorilla, having noticed the ninja's sneak attack on Abigail's shoulder, roared loudly. Most importantly, he hadn't even reacted in time.

A punch was thrown directly at the ninja, but the ninja was left as an afterimage.

"What was that just now? A stance?" the ninja asked, somewhat surprised. But before Abigail could answer, the ninja suddenly laughed: "Whether it's a stance or something else, you're all going to die here today."

After saying that, the ninja disappeared again.

But just then, bang...

With a loud thud, the ninja in front of the armored gorilla was suddenly slammed to the ground as if by something, the force so great that it shoved the ninja into the soil.

"Sorry, I wanted to play with you, but I have important business to attend to right now. Let's go, gorilla." Abigail directly manipulated an invisible hand formed from magic to press the ninja to the ground.

“Yes, Lady Abigail.” With that, the armored gorilla jumped toward the building.

Just after Abigail and the others left, a bald man wearing a yellow bodysuit and with a bald head arrived at the scene.

Then, the ninja, or rather, Sonic the Hedgehog, got his balls blown up again. ...Oh, poor kid.

Upon arriving at the foot of the Golden Poop Building, a group of guards stood trembling in front of the building, guns in hand.

"Who are you people? If you come any closer, we won't be so polite!" one of the men, who looked like the captain of the guards, shouted at Abigail and her companions, trying to remain calm.

"You must be in charge here. We don't want to use force today. Go tell Zenil now that we are from the House of Evolution and that we are here to bring him something he absolutely cannot refuse."

Upon hearing Abigail's words, the captain of the guard visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, I will inform Lord Zenil right now."

"Oh, and one more thing, if they won't let us in, then we'll go in ourselves."

Hearing Abigail's words, the captain of the guard swallowed hard.

"Okay, I'll bring it."

After saying that, the security captain quickly ran towards the entrance of the building.

A short while later, the guard captain returned.

"Well, Lord Zenil wants you to go upstairs. Please follow me."

After hearing the captain's words, all the guards present breathed a sigh of relief.

Abigail then ordered the new armored gorilla to follow the guard captain into the building. It must be said that everything in the building was quite large; at least the armored gorilla could move around normally inside, although it was a bit narrow.

"This is it. Lord Zenil will be here soon. Please wait here for a while." They arrived at a large room, and judging from the decorations, it seemed to be a place for meetings.

After seeing the guard captain leave, Abigail jumped off the armored gorilla and sat down on the sofa.

"Rich people really know how to enjoy life. This sofa is so comfortable." Abigail seemed to sink into the sofa, which shows how soft it was.

After waiting for a few minutes, two people suddenly walked in from the elevator. One was a chubby middle-aged man with a head of blond curly hair, and the other was an old man with long white hair.

As soon as he walked in, the fat man with blond curly hair looked at the armored gorilla standing next to the sofa with some fear, then sat down on the sofa opposite him. As for the white-haired old man in the black butler's uniform, he stood behind the fat man.

“You must be Zenil,” Abigail said, noticing the fat man with a thick gold chain around his neck.

"I am Zenil. May I ask what brings you here today?" As he spoke, Zenil glanced at the armored gorilla standing next to Abigail from time to time. There was no way around it; the armored gorilla's intimidating presence was simply too great.

“It’s very simple, we need your investment. A large investment.” Abigail cut straight to the point.

"How much do you want? As long as you let me go, 1 million, 1000 million, or even 100 million is fine with me," Zenil said with some fear. A wealthy man like him valued his life highly, and money was just a number to him.

"Don't make us sound like a bandit gang. Like I said, I've brought you something good today. Gorilla, hand it over."

Then, the armored gorilla began to transform from its chest, revealing a cavity inside containing a small metal box.

Abigail placed the small metal box on the table.

"Do you know what this is? A potion that reverses aging. Do you think this is enough in sufficient quantity to gain your support?"

"Wait, what did you just say? A potion to reverse aging. Are you serious?" Zenil looked at the small box with some surprise at the vial of blue liquid inside.

"Of course it's true, and this thing has been researched for a long time and has already been used. The leader of the House of Evolution used this thing to rejuvenate. How about it, aren't you interested?"

"Have you used such a potion before?" Zenil asked curiously.

"No, I've never used this thing. It's just one of the research projects at the House of Evolution. Interested in trying it out?"

After saying that, Abigail smiled and looked at Zenil.

Chapter 80 The Founding of the House of Evolution

"You're letting me try something this important for free? You're not using me as a guinea pig, are you?" Zenil said with some suspicion.

“Why would I use you as a guinea pig? This stuff is absolutely effective. Like I said, this is just one of the research projects of the House of Evolution. I just chose the most tempting one. There’s a saying that goes, the greatest pain in life is dying before you’ve spent all your money, don’t you think?” Abigail maintained his calm demeanor, not at all worried that Zenil would refuse such a thing.

“I can’t refuse, but, butler, you’ll have to try this injection. Same old rules, you know.” Zenil was still a little cautious, especially after he learned that this injection wasn’t the only one available. He cared even less about the injection itself; all he wanted to know was its true effect.

“I understand, Lord Zenil.”

After saying this, the old butler went to the table, took the syringe out of the box, hesitated for a while, and then made up his mind to inject the syringe into his vein.

After the butler injected the medicine into his own body, the medicine began to take effect.

“Oh, Master Zenil, it’s true! I feel my body starting to feel more energetic,” the butler said excitedly.

"Yes, I see. Your face is starting to look younger. It's amazing." Zenil was also very excited, after all, the butler's appearance proved the potion's effectiveness.

Zenil then turned his head: "Um, well..."

"My name is Abigail."

“Alright, Miss Abigail, I’ll buy your potion. Name your price,” Zenil said magnanimously.

"Don't rush me. Didn't I tell you? The rejuvenation potion is just a routine research project of the House of Evolution. Is rejuvenation all you're after?" Seeing that Zenil had taken the bait, Abigail continued to tempt him.

"Hmm? Miss Abigail, do you have anything better?" Zenil asked with great interest.

"Of course, do you want to become Superman? The kind of Superman who can fly and dive into the earth, incredibly powerful? Gorilla, show me," Abigail tempted.

“Yes, Lady Abigail.” After saying that, the armored gorilla turned to Zenil and said, “May I use that wall over there?”

“Sure, do as you please,” Zenil said, sweating profusely.

Having received permission, the armored gorilla turned around and threw a punch at the wall.

Boom... With a deafening roar, the wall was punched through by the gorilla's fist, creating a large hole.

“This…” Zenil stared at the scene in astonishment.

"This is amazing... This... the wind generated by just a punch has such destructive power, does that mean I can become this powerful too? Miss Abigail, name your price, money is no object!" Seeing the actual effect, Zenil said with some fervor.

"No rush. Since we are called the House of Evolution, our goal is naturally the evolution of humanity. We want to achieve the evolution of all mankind, so we need your funding."

After listening to Abigail's words, Zenil understood her purpose. He leaned back on the sofa and said:

“Miss Abigail, I am a businesswoman. If it were just a transaction, it would be simple to exchange money for goods. But now you want me to help you achieve the evolution of all mankind. This is of no benefit to me. Let’s talk about helping me evolve instead.”

"Are you sure you don't want to work with us? That's fine too. Let's talk about helping you evolve. There are plenty of wealthy people in the world, we can always find another one. I was even thinking of giving my partner some special treatment. You know, the evolution project is a monopoly." Abigail said with some regret.

“Wait, Miss Abigail, may I know what kind of preferential treatment it is?” Zenil asked with some curiosity.

"Evolution has its pros and cons. Ordinary people naturally don't have many good opportunities for evolution, but if you're a collaborator, then of course you should wholeheartedly try to achieve the best possible evolution," Abigail explained calmly.

"May I ask what level of evolution we'd be at if we made a trade?" Zenil understood what Abigail meant, but he still asked, hoping for the best.

“That depends on how much money Mr. Zenil is willing to invest. However, I still suggest that Mr. Zenil cooperate with us, since the partner has the priority to enjoy the latest results. I wonder what your decision is, Mr. Zenil?” After Abigail finished speaking, she waited quietly for Zenil's reply. If he still didn't agree after all this, Abigail wasn't going to waste any more time; she could just find another company.

After some consideration, Zenil came to his conclusion:

"Miss Abigail, it's a pleasure doing business with you."

Upon hearing Zenil's reply, Abigail laughed: "It's a pleasure to work with you."

..................

[Now for a news report. Recently, an organization called the House of Evolution has suddenly appeared in J City and built a building of their own. According to reliable intelligence, this organization seems to be funded by the wealthy Mr. Zenil. Now, let's interview a staff member who just came out of the building...]

“Genos, speaking of which, isn’t this House of Evolution the one we encountered before?” Saitama turned to Genos beside him and said, watching the news on TV.

“Yes, teacher, according to the information that has been leaked, the highest executive of the House of Evolution is Miss Abigail,” Jeros replied.

"No way?" Saitama was somewhat incredulous.

“It’s true. Apparently, after we left, Miss Abigail and Kinus went to J City together and officially established the House of Evolution,” Gerald continued.

"Speaking of which, isn't the House of Evolution an illegal organization? Doesn't anyone do anything about them?" Saitama asked curiously.

“Teacher, the House of Evolution is now a legitimate corporation. They claim to help all of humanity evolve. Their business is to provide gene optimization services for a small fee. It seems that employees can get one gene optimization session for free,” Gerald continued.

"Hey, isn't that great? So Abby did something like that." Saitama said happily.

“Yes, based on the results of those who have undergone genetic optimization, the optimized individuals can reach the level of a C-rank hero, and the better ones can even reach the physical attributes of a B-rank hero. It is said that their sponsor, Mr. Zenil, is now no weaker than an A-rank hero,” Jeros continued.

"Wow, that's amazing. By the way, Jeros, when is the exam again?" Just then, Saitama suddenly remembered that today seemed to be the day of the Hero Assessment. Come to think of it, he had only learned about the Hero Association a couple of days ago.

"Teacher, don't worry, there's still time, but we really should set off now."

"Alright, let's get going." Saitama said, standing up.

"Yes, teacher."

..................

"It seems everything is going well so far, Kinus. How are you feeling?" Abigail said to Kinus across from her at the House of Evolution headquarters in J City.

"To be honest, I don't feel anything. I don't understand why they only opened up the gene optimization project, which is not very useful, when gene modification can achieve better results." Kinas asked with some doubt.

“It’s very simple, it’s about acceptance. Right now, many people are still observing. If it’s just about optimizing genes, no one will refuse. But genetic modification is different. Many people will refuse because they will think that they are no longer human,” Abigail said casually while taking a sip of her drink.

"They're all just a bunch of stupid humans."

Upon hearing Kinus's assessment, Abigail smiled noncommittally.

“By the way, how’s the research on the sample I gave you going?” Abigail then asked.

“No! The genetic sample of this organism you provided is far too advanced; it has a triple helix structure, which completely overturns my previous research. I need more time to analyze it,” Kinas replied.

"No need to rush, just take your time to study it. The evolution of all humankind is not an easy thing. What we need to do now is to make all of humanity believe that we have the ability to help them evolve. Once someone benefits from us, others will covet this kind of change. Our fees are not expensive, and ordinary people can afford them. Gradually, some people will want to try more advanced changes. That will be the time when we can truly help all of humanity evolve."
