Zhang Bairen, who crossed through myriad worlds, joined the Multiverse Mutual Aid Chat Group.
From then on, I, Zhang Bairen, relied not on heaven, not on earth, only on myself!
Kengan A...
"The Doctor has agreed. Do you need me to take you there?" the Beast King asked.
"No need, just show me the map," Zhang Bairen replied.
"Okay." The Beast King did not hesitate and projected the exact location of the House of Evolution onto his smart bracelet.
"Thank you for letting me know, I've got it."
"Oh, by the way, here's a fresh soup. You can try it." After Zhang Bairen served the soup, Hua Lei left.
Encountering the Beast King unexpectedly and contacting Dr. Genus was a pleasant surprise.
In the One-Punch Man universe, there are many super scientists.
However, Dr. Genus, who is proficient in both mechanics and biology, is definitely one of the top talents among them.
Rejuvenation technology, infinite cloning technology, monster creation technology, infinite regeneration technology.
These four techniques are incredibly incredible, even in a world like One-Punch Man.
Perfect rejuvenation, perfect infinite cloning, bizarre evolutionary methods involving both biomechanical aspects, and the infinite regeneration of the zombie man and the little octopus.
If Genus had enough resources and time, it could have enabled humans to achieve physical evolution.
Honestly, I've been using a source-switching app to read and follow my favorite books lately. It offers various source switching options and different reading voices. The .huanyuanapp works on both Android and Apple devices.
Simply by loading the ability to rejuvenate and regenerate infinitely, humanity can become an extraordinary race.
However, this is clearly not very realistic.
While there are successful examples of replicating both techniques, it is certainly not a simple task.
Just like the Giant Brothers' ultimate steroid formulation, besides the formula, the resources required to manufacture the drug would be far more than imagined.
Effort and reward are always directly proportional.
If one could defy the law of conservation of energy, one could obtain immense power with just a little time and resources.
Obviously, the world would fall into chaos.
Zhang Bairen had speculated about this, but he didn't know if it was true.
After all, this world isn't exactly scientific.
The sudden enlightenment and growth of Sexy Prisoner, the vest power of Tank Top Master, the aura of Metal Bat, the infinite regeneration of Zombieman, and the devouring and digestion of Pig God are all clearly abnormal.
Especially the zombie man from the House of Evolution, whose infinite regenerative ability has violated the law of conservation of energy.
"There's no use thinking about it anymore. Once we see Genus, things will be pretty much clearer." Zhang Bairen's speed increased further, and the dazzling trail of lightning was no longer detectable.
Two minutes later, Zhang Bairen arrived at the House of Evolution.
Genus was shocked; this speed was simply outrageous!
However, with his strong mental fortitude, Genus immediately dispatched clones to warmly welcome Zhang Bairen.
"Greetings, esteemed sir." Genus spoke with great respect.
Just kidding, even a rhinoceros beetle couldn't reach this place at more than twenty times the speed of sound, right?
Moreover, this is a long distance.
Whether it's her pure speed or her spatial abilities, Zhang Bairen's situation is enough to make Genus take her very seriously.
"Hello, Dr. Genus." Zhang Bairen extended his palm and shook hands with Genus in a friendly manner.
"You can just call me Number 2. I am clone number 2, Dr. Genus's personal assistant."
"The Doctor himself is waiting for you in the waiting room now," Clone 2 replied.
Zhang Bairen nodded slightly, understanding the situation of the clone.
As expected, the priorities were clearly defined, and there were no risks involved.
Dr. Genos is truly amazing.
By taking the elevator, Zhang Bairen met Genos in person, who was dressed in a suit.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang Bairen, a direct disciple of Master Bomb."
Clearly, within those two short minutes, Genos had obtained Zhang Bairen's general information.
"Hello, Dr. Genus," Zhang Bairen said with a smile.
"Mr. Zhang Bairen, please allow me to express my rudeness and curiosity."
As far as I know, you live in the martial arts school year-round and rarely communicate with the outside world.
So, why do you know the Beast King, and why do you know about my situation?
"Also, can you reach your level of strength just by practicing martial arts? Your travel speed is beyond belief, exceeding twenty times the speed of sound!" Genus couldn't contain his curiosity and stared directly at Zhang Bairen, boldly asking the question.
"First of all, I have a special ability that allows me to know a lot of things."
For example, the story about you and the House of Evolution, and the alien invasion that will happen soon after.
You can think of my ability as a more detailed precognitive talent. Grandma Shibabawa, who is protected by the Hero Association, has a 100% accurate precognitive ability.
There's also strength and speed. Martial arts training can make you very strong, and you can even reach twenty times the speed of sound. In the martial arts world, there is a ninja village where the outstanding ninjas all possess extraordinary speed.
"The two most famous ones right now are Sonic the Hedgehog and Flashy Flash," Zhang Bairen replied.
"Thank you for clearing up my confusion. I understand now."
"May I obtain some of your genes for normal scientific research?" Genos continued to inquire.
Zhang Bairen's gaze turned cold.
"Dr. Genus, you are a smart man, you should know what you can say and what you can't say."
I understand your curiosity and thirst for knowledge, but that doesn't mean I can indulge you indefinitely or allow you to act so recklessly.
Genos instantly snapped out of it and quickly apologized.
Yes, this person possesses precognitive abilities and immense strength, making him somewhat omniscient and omnipotent.
The being before us knows about the House of Evolution and its situation.
Given these circumstances, their willingness to come to the House of Evolution clearly demonstrates their confidence.
What you just said was indeed a bit irrational.
“Dr. Genus, you have already asked me two questions. Now, may I ask you two questions?” Zhang Bairen asked.
“Sure, please ask.” Genos nodded in agreement.
"The first question is about the zombie man's infinite regeneration ability. Doesn't this special ability consume energy? How can he regenerate infinitely without replenishing energy?"
The second question is, how much resources and time would it take to replicate this ability?
If it's that simple, why not just replicate it on yourself?
"If it's so difficult, why did you so easily grant a small octopus unlimited regeneration in the future?" Zhang Bairen's question contained spoilers.
But it was precisely because of this that Genos became even more interested.
Genos adjusted his glasses and then replied with a smile, "Mr. Zhang Bairen, you have more than two questions."
However, I can answer your questions.
The zombie man you mentioned should be the 66th immortal experimental subject who escaped.
His immortality is virtually invincible.
Although this technology did not grant him great strength, as long as his will remained, he could regenerate indefinitely.
Willpower is an important part of evolution.
There's also the ability to replicate. I can replicate the ability to regenerate infinitely on any creature, but the success rate requires some luck.
The stronger the will of the test subject, the higher the success rate.
Furthermore, replicating the immortality experiment would indeed require a lot of precious resources and a certain amount of time.
"I personally don't want to take chances, and I also possess eternal youth, so I didn't conduct this special experiment on myself," Genus replied.
Zhang Bairen suddenly realized the key information contained in Genus's answer.
Willpower!
Willpower, momentum, and belief—these conceptual things do indeed have an extraordinary effect in the world of One-Punch Man.
For example, the invincibility effect of the vest power, the ever-increasing momentum, and the infinite burst of the hungry wolf's will.
"In other words, the key to immortality lies in belief and willpower," Zhang Bairen explained.
"That's not wrong. As long as Number 66 wants to continue living, it's almost impossible for him to die. Even if he wanted to die, his body would keep him alive."
"In short, I haven't fully understood this area of research yet," Genus replied with a nod.
"Hmm, I think I understand." After Zhang Bairen finished speaking, Genus continued to ask, "You just said that in the future, I will create a little octopus with an immortal body."
Could it be that this little octopus is the strongest monster I'll ever create?!
"No, this little octopus is just your food."
In the future, your beliefs crumble, and you open a takoyaki shop dressed as an armored gorilla.
Then, all the octopus tentacles used came from this infinitely regenerating little octopus. Zhang Bairen's answer left Genos dumbfounded.
In the future, will his beliefs crumble?
In other words, has the path to human evolution also failed?
"What caused my beliefs to crumble?" Genus asked in a deep voice.
"Well, it's because in the future, you became curious about the strongest man on Earth."
Then, he destroyed the House of Evolution.
Even your Asura rhinoceros beetle was easily killed by that man.
After seeing this scene, you realize that all your pursuits and experiments have become meaningless.
Then, having lost your faith, you took the armored gorilla and went to sell takoyaki. "Zhang Bairen replied.
Genus looked at Zhang Bairen and asked hesitantly, "The strongest man on Earth you mentioned, you're not you, are you?"
Indeed, the enigmatic Genus, who was both righteous and wicked, became curious about Zhang Bairen.
He was extremely curious and eager about Zhang Bairen's genes.
"Even though it wasn't me, I could still do this."
For example, destroy your evolutionary home, crush your beliefs and confidence.” Zhang Bairen’s answer carried a clear warning.
Genos lowered his head, trying to calm himself down.
"I understand. Please rest assured, I will not do anything foolish."
On the contrary, I would love to work with you, someone who can foresee the future.
I think you probably have the same idea.
"My wisdom, your information, my power, your strength—if we join forces, we will be invincible!" Genus declared.
Zhang Bairen smiled. Yes, he did have that idea.
Genos is a talented person; it would be best to work with him.
If that's not possible, then use the little black monster's abilities to control it through demonic transformation.
Although this might cause Genus to lose most of his innovative abilities, his original knowledge and accumulated experience are already sufficient to make use of.
"Dr. Genus, it's a pleasure to work with you."
I prefer talking to smart people; it saves me from wasting my breath. Zhang Bairen extended his palm, gesturing for Genos to shake hands and cooperate.
Kinos also extended his hand, shook hands, and smiled.
"Doctor, what kind of evolution are you seeking? Physical? Moral? Or mental?" Zhang Bairen asked.
"It's mainly about the physical aspect. Once genetic evolution is achieved, human intelligence will also increase. As for the moral aspect, I haven't really considered that," Genus replied.
"I see. If we want strength, wisdom, and morality, then I guess only the Giants of Light from the Land of Light can meet these requirements," Zhang Bairen muttered to himself.
"The Land of Light? Giants of Light? Is this a nation and race in the universe?" Genus asked.
"Well, that makes sense."
However, the Giant of Light is too far away for us to even think about.
Now, I have a goal. There is a scientist in the suburbs of D City who has developed a drug that can turn ordinary humans into giants over 1,000 meters tall.
"I think you must be very interested in this biological agent," Zhang Bairen said.
"Giant Potion?"
"Indeed, if this medicine could be optimized, it might allow the human body to undergo a comprehensive evolution," Genus replied with a smile.
“It seems you’re interested too,” Zhang Bairen said.
"Hmm, I'm interested."
"Should I send some weirdos to invite that doctor to the House of Evolution?" Genus asked.
"No, the eccentrics under your command are too reckless."
Moreover, that doctor may have already completed the research and production of the drug.
"This time, I will personally take action to ensure everything goes smoothly." After saying this, Zhang Bairen stood up from his chair.
"Wait here for my good news. Even if we don't get the potion, we can still capture the creator." As the voice fell, Zhang Bairen's figure instantly pierced through the steel gate and then vanished in a flash.
As Genus stared at the enormous opening before him, he muttered to himself, "Is this some kind of demonstration or warning?"
Regardless of what Kinos thought, Zhang Bairen had already arrived in the suburbs of D City.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Techniques, Spiritual Exploration, and Earth-Penetrating Search!"
Zhang Bairen's shadow clones began a thorough search.
Half an hour later, they found a hidden laboratory.
"Found them, the Falkgo brothers!"
"And then there's the ultimate steroid formulation, the King of Biceps, which is nearing completion." Zhang Bairen's body, using his earth-burrowing ability, arrived inside the laboratory.
Instantly, a piercing alarm sounded from the seemingly dilapidated laboratory.
Zhang Bairen acted decisively and subdued the target brother.
"Fokgo, don't get excited. I am your future master." Zhang Bairen stretched out his palm and placed it on the top of Fokgo's head.
First, the power of the primordial spirit is used to create illusions and confuse the mind.
Then, using half-baked mental techniques, a shallow hypnosis is performed.
Next, the black monster's evolved demonic power amplifies the darkness within Falkor's heart and strengthens his own power.
Finally, perfect control.
The Dark Lord's demonic power can control machines and living beings, and Falkor, as an ordinary human, is completely powerless to resist.
"Master!" Dr. Fogg, whose skin had darkened, exuded a murderous aura, and whose burly figure was muscular, knelt on one knee before Zhang Bairen.
"Get up and explain to me the basic principles and effects of this medicine," Zhang Bairen commanded.
"Yes, Master!" Fokker respectfully accepted the order.
