As Abigail, I caused trouble in infinite space.

"No way! I refuse to believe that I, the mighty Tornado, can't even beat a game. I'm the second-ranked S-class hero, how could I be defeated by such a simple game?" Tornado said stubbornly. Even Abigail herself didn't expect that such a casual action of hers would have such an impact.

"If you're not going to sleep, I'm going to sleep first. I'm tired after playing with you for so long. Goodnight." After saying that, Abigail yawned, stood up from the sofa, saw the huge office, went into a small room at the back, took off her clothes, and went to bed.

In her sleep, Abigail instinctively hugged something soft and fluffy. Although her face felt a little hard against it, it didn't matter; overall, the feeling of hugging it was quite comfortable, and it was smooth to the touch, which made Abigail touch it a few more times...

When the sun rose again, a ray of sunlight shone on Abigail's face. The dazzling sunlight woke Abigail, and then her face immediately fell into a daze. She looked blankly at the green-haired figure in her arms—what exactly happened last night?

Chapter 83 Big News in Z City

Looking at the scene before her, Abigail panicked. Had she developed a habit of sleepwalking? And how did she even manage to get Tornado into bed? Had she actually done anything loving?

With some anticipation, Abigail lifted the covers, only to be disappointed.

Oh, she was wearing clothes! As for why Abigail didn't realize it, it's actually quite simple: after a while, you lose the perception of a feeling. I'm sure many people have had this experience.

Getting back to the main point, Abigail felt less guilty after seeing that what she had imagined hadn't happened.

"Hey, Tornado, Tornado, wake up, wake up!"

Abigail nudged the trembling tornado until she woke up.

"What are you doing! I'm still sleepy..." Like a child whining, Tornado pushed Abigail's hand away, then turned over and continued sleeping.

Looking at the peacefully sleeping Tatsumaki, Abigail suddenly smiled. Although nothing loving had seemed to have happened before, wouldn't it be nice to make up for it now? She just wondered how Tatsumaki would react. She was somewhat looking forward to it.

"Hehehe, little kitty, I'm here..." Abigail stretched out her hand with ill intent.

However, at that moment, the trembling tornado suddenly rose up.

It seemed to be muttering something, and upon closer listening, it turned out that Tornado needed to use the restroom.

What could Abigail say to this? She had lost all interest. Abigail got out of bed, dressed, and left the room.

Looking at the empty handle case next to the sofa and the handle fragments scattered everywhere, Abigail could imagine what had happened last night.

Just then, Tornado, who had returned from the toilet, floated past Abigail. But at that moment, a phone rang, waking Tornado up.

Then, Tornado, who had just woken up, looked around in confusion, seemingly wondering how she ended up there. Then she realized what was happening and took her phone out of her pocket.

"Hey, what's up?"

"I'm in J City."

"What? I'm not involved? Are you kidding me? I'm furious!"

"Ha, a meteorite is falling? In one hour, in Z City, okay, I got it."

After saying that, Tornado, trembling, hung up the phone.

"Honestly, why couldn't these people have called sooner? Z City is probably doomed this time."

"I just heard there seems to be a meteorite? How is the situation?" Abigail asked curiously.

"What else can happen? We just discovered it. They said it suddenly veered off course and will crash into Z City in an hour. It's a Dragon-level disaster. Anyway, Z City is probably doomed this time," Tornado explained.

However, Abigail didn't sense any concern for the people of Z City from Tornado's tone. Come to think of it, Tornado became a hero because she admired Blast, and didn't actually want to be a hero. Thinking about it that way, it's not hard to understand.

"Ah..." She stretched, seemingly because of the phone call, and the trembling tornado was no longer sleepy.

"Hey Abigail, do you still have a controller? I'm going to beat that game today."

"Game controllers? Wait a minute, let me see if the new ones have arrived. I guessed yesterday that you would use them all up, so I ordered new ones. I just didn't expect you to use them up even faster than I thought," Abigail said with a hint of helplessness.

"Oh, then I'll go get some breakfast first. By the way, where's your cafeteria?" Tornado asked immediately.

"It's on the third floor, but you can't make a purchase without an employee card. Let me go with you, we can check on the delivery after we eat. It's already afternoon," Abigail said casually, as she was also going to get something to eat.

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

Time moved forward again, and three days passed just like that. During these three days, Abigail witnessed firsthand what internet-addicted girls looked like.

"Hey, are you planning to stay here and never leave? The people the Hero Association sent this time have all been optimized, so you should leave with them too," Abigail said, lying on the sofa and looking at Tatsumaki. Speaking of which, Tatsumaki's only progress in the past three days was that she finally stopped throwing the controller.

"No, I haven't finished this game yet. Besides, I don't have anything to do right now, so it doesn't matter if I don't go back." Tornado continued to focus on the screen, and then a large "death" character appeared on the screen.

"Damn it, this monkey is still so powerful even without a head, I don't believe it!" Tornado was already used to her own death.

Speaking of this game, it seems to be called a nightmare for those with poor hand-eye coordination, a blacksmithing game, or something like that, online.

Abigail thought the game was alright; it was tolerable for a seasoned gamer like her. However, for a complete newbie like Tornado, it was truly a nightmare.

Seeing the large red "death" character reappear on the screen, Abigail decided she wanted to see something else.

I turned on the TV next to me, and it was broadcasting the news.

Although Z City escaped destruction after being struck by a giant meteorite, the fragments left massive scars on the city. Fortunately, thanks to the help of many enthusiastic citizens who had undergone genetic optimization at the House of Evolution, the disaster did not result in too many casualties. Because of this, some voices in society now believe that the government should cooperate with the House of Evolution to comprehensively promote the evolution of the entire population. To address this issue, we have invited…

Watching the news on TV, Abigail was quite pleased. She hadn't expected such good news without having done anything. It seemed that the most basic trust had been established. Now, it was time to see how the gene modification progressed. Three days had already passed; the first batch of participants should have finished by now. She'd go check on them later.

Nothing interesting has happened lately, it's so boring.

Abigail yawned as she looked at the television screen.

"Damn it, it died again. That damned monkey! I will never let you get away with this!" On the other side, Tornado seemed to have been defeated by the monkey once again. Abigail had lost count of how many times this had happened.

“Tornado, you’ve been playing for so long, why don’t you go out for a walk? I suddenly remembered that the combat lab has been completed recently, do you want to go take a look?” Abigail said to Tornado, who was throwing a tantrum.

“The combat lab is perfect right now. Let’s go, let me vent.” Tornado readily agreed to Abigail’s suggestion, but judging from her expression, she was probably going to cause a huge scene, hoping the combat lab could withstand her antics.

They left the House of Evolution's building in J City. Abigail and Tornado rode on their exclusive mount, the mechanical armored gorilla, heading towards the distant mountains. The combat laboratory was built inside the mountain, hollowed out to create a huge cavity specifically for those who wanted to experiment with their abilities but had nowhere else to go.

After about half an hour of travel, Abigail and her companions arrived at the combat laboratory.

After entering through the entrance, Abigail and her group quickly arrived at the huge cavity of the combat laboratory. Of course, there was more than just the combat laboratory here; there were also many supporting facilities, such as rest areas, entertainment areas, and even some merchants who had sensed a business opportunity and came here to sell all kinds of high-energy foods.

However, this had little to do with Abigail. Entering the combat lab, unlike the previously empty one in the House of Evolution, this lab, while similar in appearance, was filled with people and numerous testing instruments. There was even a fighting arena in the center, where two modified individuals were currently competing; one had a tiger's head, and the other a wolf's head.

Below the arena stood many spectators, some of whom were genetically modified, while many others had simply undergone genetic optimization. Of course, there were also ordinary people among them. This combat laboratory was open to everyone, and anyone could enter, so it was not surprising to see ordinary people there.

"Is that what your House of Evolution has produced? They're really ugly." Tornado floated up beside Abigail and commented on the two people on the central arena.

"I think it's alright. It looks quite interesting. Let's go take a look." Then, with the help of Tornado's superpowers, the two of them squeezed a passage through the crowd and arrived at the innermost part.

"Werewolf, this is our 10th battle, isn't it? I'm sure I'll beat you this time. Try out my new tricks."

"Tiger, you've said that ten times already, but we've always ended in a draw. This time, however, the outcome will be different. This time, I'm sure to win. You think you're the only one with new tricks? I have some too!"

Two genetically modified beings faced off in the arena. Judging from their words, they had fought ten times already, and all of them seemed to end in a draw. It was anyone's guess whether this time they would produce a new result.

As the two finished their conversation, the tiger attacked first. He placed his hands on the ground, then prepared to pounce. Just like a real tiger, he pounced on the werewolf at an extremely fast speed. However, the werewolf seemed to be used to this. The moment he saw the tiger pounce, he slightly turned his body to avoid the tiger's attack, and his own claws reached out to grab the tiger's side.

However, the tiger reacted quickly. The moment the werewolf grabbed down, the tiger twisted its body to dodge the werewolf's attack. After spinning half a circle, the tiger used its tail as a weapon to lash out at the man's waist. Just as it was about to hit the werewolf's waist, the werewolf rolled away to avoid the tiger's attack. The two were once again standing in opposite corners of the ring.

Immediately, the two roared simultaneously and charged at each other. This time, their blows were brutal, a real back-and-forth exchange.

Looking at the two of them in this situation, Abigail really wanted to add the line "Ora ora ora ora ora" to them. And then add "Muda muda muda muda muda" to the other one.

After the brutal, bone-crushing attack ended, the two retreated simultaneously. It seemed that the attack had taken a toll on both of them, and they both bore the marks left by the other.

"Werewolf, watch out! This move is one I just developed. Don't blame me if you get hurt." The tiger began to gather his strength, his muscles bulging instantly, tearing his outer clothes, and revealing his claws, which gleamed with a metallic sheen.

"Tiger, you'd better watch out. I can't control myself from this next move." The werewolf suddenly crouched down, his body arched, the muscles in his waist suddenly bulged, and his claws were revealed, also with a silvery-white metallic sheen.

It seems they reached some kind of agreement, and at the same time, the two launched an attack on each other.

"The raging tiger roars!"

"A hungry wolf pounces on its prey!"

After the two announced their moves, the tiger suddenly roared, but this roar was different from usual; the enormous sound waves assaulted everyone's eardrums. Then, a shockwave spread outward from where the tiger was, knocking back several steps from everyone surrounding the arena. Some were even sent flying into the air, crashing into those behind them.

As for the other werewolf, it vanished the instant the tiger roared, but Abigail saw it clearly. With incredible speed, he instantly circled around from the edge of the ring to behind the tiger, then lunged at its back. His speed was so great that he caught the tiger's shockwave just as it was released, and then...

"It's so noisy! Be quiet!"

boom......

Suddenly, the tiger's roar stopped abruptly, followed by a booming sound. Everyone turned towards the sound, and the tiger was seen being forced to the ground by some unknown force, its body radiating a green glow. The werewolf, meanwhile, stood by, bewildered by the scene, somewhat at a loss.

"Hey you two, what are you yelling about in a fight? It's deafening."

At this moment, Tornado, who had been floating beside Abigail, floated onto the ring with great dissatisfaction and vented her frustration on the two people on the ring.

Seeing this scene, Abigail could only shake her head. These two poor kids, of all people to offend, had to mess with Tornado.

Chapter 84 The Gift of Yog Sothos

A few more days passed, and nothing much happened during that time. If anything, it was the incident that Tatsumaki had caused in the battle lab.

It wasn't really a big deal. Simply put, Tatsumaki provoked everyone present and then taught them all a lesson. It really wasn't a big deal; there were even rumors circulating that the House of Evolution had developed technology to grant superpowers.

At first, some wealthy people or high-ranking members of society came to inquire, but after learning that the protagonist of that incident was actually the S-class hero Tornado of Fright, they all left disappointed.

From this, Abigail concluded that superpowers were indeed more likely to pique the interest of others, even if they were ultimately useless.

This morning, Tornado left because of a phone call from the Hero Association. Although she didn't really want to leave, the Hero Association said they had to send her this time.

As a result, Abigail had a relatively leisurely morning, able to play games by herself at her own pace. At this time, Abigail was working on the part where she had been stuck on the previous Tornado level. Even Abigail had to admit that anime was indeed quite troublesome.

Just when Abigail thought that today would pass quietly like any other day, the armored gorilla suddenly appeared in her lounge.

"Lady Abigail, it seems the boss is in some trouble. He sent me to inform you to come to headquarters. I'm all ready. When will you be departing?"

"Kinus? It's been a while since I've seen him. I wonder how his research is going. Could it be that he's finished his research and that's why he wants me to come and take a look?" Abigail asked curiously.

"I don't know either, but judging from the boss's expression, it doesn't seem to be the case. Anyway, you'll find out once you get there," the armored gorilla said.

“Alright then, but wait a minute, let me get through this level first. Speaking of which, do you think these two are your close relatives? They look exactly alike except for their color!” Babyguy teased the armored gorilla next to her, pointing at the two gorillas, one white and one brown, on the screen.

"Lady Abigail, please don't joke with me. Although they look quite similar to me, I was originally human, and I'm not a close relative of them. Besides, I'm a cyborg, so strictly speaking, I'm not a gorilla," the armored gorilla said with some helplessness.

"It was just a joke, you actually took it seriously. But then again, although you could slap two gorillas to death in real life, they're really tough to deal with in the game!" Abigail complained while controlling her dog.

After Abigail's repeated efforts, she finally managed to kill the two gorillas.

"Speaking of which, I helped her defeat the anime character. I wonder if Tatsumaki will thank me when she comes back?" Abigail laughed as she closed the game and left with the armored gorilla.

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

“Abigail, I feel like I can’t go on like this.”

At the true headquarters of the House of Evolution, Kinus said with a dejected look.

"What happened?" Abigail asked, somewhat puzzled.
