Chapter 1091: Resolve To Grow

The cool damp air of the cave swirled around in a steady rhythm, dancing with the erratic glow of the makeshift machines and computers scattered haphazardly around the interior.

Crystalline stalactites hung from the cave ceiling, reflecting off the luminescence cast by the pulsating screens and blinking lights, casting a vibrant, ethereal glow throughout the enclosure.

The inhabitant of the cave was an eccentric figure.

Clad in a faded lab coat that was streaked with dirt and a smattering of other stains, the man stood hunched over a console, his eyes aglow with mad curiosity.

His hair, as wild and untamed as the man himself, stood at odd angles, and his cheeks were covered with a grizzly beard.

His gaunt features were etched with lines of age and the haggardness that was a result of countless hours of study and experimentation.
