The silver plant swayed merrily and lively to Lucien's singing, resembling a green dancer under the moonlight, waiting for her desired encounter.
"The final step," Lucien slowly withdrew his spiritual power from the plant, and at the same time, he took a Venus clam from the tank beside him.
After forcibly opening the large clamshell, Lucien saw inside a miniature nude Venus.
Her mouth opened, emitting sound waves indiscernible to human ears, interspersed with enchantment.
In a daze, Lucien seemed to see the ocean and, on the rocks, that figure which made his blood race and longed for day and night.
"Hmph." But the illusion lasted only for a moment. Then Lucien's spiritual power forcefully tore it apart, his consciousness returned, and the scene changed back to the familiar laboratory.
