Chapter 985 - 894: Villains Also Need to Keep Up with the Times
Chapter 985: Chapter 894: Villains Also Need to Keep Up with the TimesWhere the Barrosa Group appears, there lurk the minions of the Gene Master.
When we left last time, the Lunar Eclipse Sect had reached a strategic alliance with the Barrosa Group, and a common enemy had united these former adversaries.
But judging from the current situation, their investigation doesn’t seem to be going smoothly.
Introduced by a Brotherhood re
Someone asked.
"This is the key to the new world."
The researcher carefully opened the transparent container and held the semi-transparent worm in his palm.
The worm, smelling food, pounced in an instant, as quick as lightning, the moment it approached the cage.
"Smack, smack."
A few discordant sounds distracted Song Lan’s attention.
"Nothingness" by his side was also staring wide-eyed, his mouth never stopping.
Song Lan now noticed another bad habit of his—chewing loudly while eating.
"Didn’t you say it doesn’t taste good?"
"Waste not, want not," "Nothingness" said, "Besides, there’s nothing else to do."
He admitted the worm did pique his interest; such creatures were rare in Neutral Country. In more scientific terms, this process was what people commonly referred to as parasitism.
The parasitism lasted about ten seconds, and the struggles of the gene-modified warrior in the cage gradually ceased. After a minute of silence, the muscles on his body suddenly swelled, ejecting all the syringes that penetrated his flesh. The chains and the cage could no longer restrain him. He lightly pulled at the chains with his raised right hand, breaking them effortlessly, and the cage in his hands became like building blocks, effortlessly splitting into two.
Seeing this, all the Rebel Army officers present prepared for battle, but the gene-modified warrior stopped there.
After demonstrating his destructive power, he suddenly became quiet again, lowering his head and standing behind the researcher.
"The Barrosa Group has made many modifications to their warriors, but we consider that far from enough."
Treating the Gene Warrior’s sturdy arm like an artwork, the researcher patted it, "Getting power comparable to the legion commanders is only the beginning. The learning ability of the worms far exceeds that of humans. As long as you provide them with sufficient nutrients, they can induce several metamorphoses in the host in a short period."
"But what does this have to do with us?"
Another person asked.
Almost all the Rebel Army officers were Psychics; they took a path completely different from gene enhancement. Furthermore, judging by the situation of the Gene Warrior, the extent of modification was questionable. However, what was certain was that he had become a complete puppet of the Brotherhood.
"This is the truly interesting part of evolution. The worm will undergo changes corresponding to the host’s genes, enhancing Psychic abilities or perfecting the flaws of cybernetic bodies, completely removing the risk of cyber mental illness... Evolution should be, after all, equal for everyone."
The researcher’s voice rose with excitement, his expression as fanatical as that of a cult leader.
But the Rebel Army officers were clearly not convinced. They had been skeptical of the Brotherhood’s motives for convening this meeting from the start. Yet, since the Brotherhood claimed to possess something they wanted, they had to attend.
The atmosphere dropped to a freezing point, until the ever-kind Song Lan, unable to watch anymore, raised his hand and asked, "So, where can we buy these worms?"
