Chapter 284

"My ideal?"

"Yes, if not, forget it."

Since the emergence of [Light of Hope], conflicts with large-scale casualties have rarely occurred.

Even if there is death, Xi Guang will have special people to collect the bodies of these people, even if they are enemies, they will be properly buried.

In short, Lun Shengxi was unemployed.

Although it is not a huge blow, it is still regrettable to lose a source of "income".

There was no way. What Lun Shengxi did was considered immoral by most people, so he had no way to collect the engraved hearts openly.

A truly useful engraved heart cannot be obtained just by wanting it. Lun Shengxi is still young, so he is not in a hurry.

Always give yourself something to do.

Yes, Lun Shengxi finally went to Xiguang’s base.

At least I can make a living.

This is where Lun Shengxi and Boss’s acquaintance originated.

Most of the cities under Xi Guang's rule were peaceful and harmonious. Lun Shengxi had never seen a society where people with special abilities and ordinary people lived together with almost no conflicts.

Despite this, Lun Shengxi still had no intention of joining Xiguang. At this moment when Xiguang was on the rise, he still felt that Xiguang's efforts would ultimately be in vain.

In order to avoid being destroyed along with Xiguang, Lun Shengxi now only accepts commissions from residents under Xiguang's rule and forms a new team with the girl in front of him.

The two had surprisingly similar views on Xi Guang.

However, the ideal mentioned by his partner seemed very illusory to Lun Shengxi.

But if we replace the 'ideal' with something else...

"I am interested in the origin of superpowers and superpowers themselves, and I want to do some research on this. Is that ideal?"

It seems that a wish that is not grand and great cannot be called an ideal.

"Of course." She smiled. "If you really want to study this, how about I build a laboratory for you when I become rich?"

Lun Shengxi didn't take it seriously, but he nodded in agreement.

"good."

"I'll stop here for now, but I've decided to join Xi Guang now."

His partner's attitude suddenly changed, but Lun Shengxi didn't react too much, just a little confused.

"Why?"

The girl shook her head.

"It's not that I've changed my mind. I'm just simply curious and want to observe them up close."

Especially Ju Mang, who is worshipped as a god by everyone.

Lun Shengxi understood that this was the same feeling as his curiosity about superpowers.

——

'Resurrection' is indeed another 'topic' chosen by Lun Shengxi.

But it's not just about resurrection, it's about the study of life itself.

Resurrection, extended life, even immortality, all have to do with the essence of life.

Compared to the research on the human body and superpowers, this topic can be said to have made no progress.

No supernatural powers are related to the essence of life, and resurrection is naturally one of them.

The related supernatural technology tree seems to be locked. I don’t know whether it is a defect of human life or a limitation of the "Creator".

Just like Lun Shengxi himself, he looks still young, but in fact he has reached the end of his life.

If his life span cannot be extended, he will soon die of old age.

But why is Xi Siling so sure about this?

Lun Shengxi was puzzled by this.

When it comes to unproven things, humans always subconsciously deny the possibility of their non-existence.

Even a tiny delusion is enough to make people full of hope.

"I won't believe you. If you can't do it, then there's no point in living."

Compared to this guy, Lan Yi certainly trusts his friend more.

They are not making choices for themselves.

Lun Shengxi was quite surprised when he saw Lan Yi's unwavering gaze.

Human beings are a very large group. Lun Shengxi has seen the so-called evil of human nature, and he has also seen noble people like Ju Mang.

So he wouldn't suspect that Lan Yi was lying.

Ultimately, he doesn't care or mind.

"Then say goodbye to your sister, Lan Yi."

Lan Yi stared at Lun Shengxi, clearly filled with murderous intent, but he did not attack him.

Still can't do it?

"Lun Shengxi."

So he was waiting for his companions to make a decision?

Lun Shengxi thought of several possibilities, but unfortunately he guessed none of them correctly.

Xi Siling walked in front of him.

"What is your relationship with Ers?"

Very cleverly, Xi Siling did not say his full name.

Lun Shengxi was a little confused. The name almost disappeared from his memory.

But why did Xi Siling suddenly ask about this person?

Now take a closer look at Xi Siling's eyebrows...

"I see! I see!"

Lun Shengxi struggled, but was held down by Lin Zhipei.

So he could only laugh enough and then calm himself down.

"You are his descendant, aren't you?"

This is the only possibility to connect all the information together.

Time passed too fast, and Lun Shengxi didn't take everything to heart.

Besides, when Lun Shengxi attempted that, he had no intention of succeeding.

Unexpectedly, it succeeded!

"As long as one of the three conditions to become a [God] is met, he will awaken from his bloodline and take over another's body."

Lun Shengxi grasped the key and looked at Xi Siling with an obsessed look.

"In my design, if you were born with it, you would have been possessed by Ers before you could form self-awareness, and you would never have survived until now... [Master] [Core] and [Apocalypse], which one do you have?"

Lun Shengxi's gaze was even more frightening than when Xi Siling used his supernatural powers on him and was bewitched by happiness.

Liu Huaqi covered his eyes with one hand.

"Take that disgusting look away. He is not your experimental subject."

Lun Shengxi chuckled.

"It's him! Ers is about to succeed, right? That's why you came to me. I see, hahahahaha—"

For scientists, nothing is more gratifying than seeing the results of their own experiments.

A situation occurred to Xi Siling that Lun Shengxi had never imagined.

Even the experimental subjects he provided to Ers were all started from scratch. It was the first time that Lun Shengxi had seen someone like Xi Siling who had no innate talent but gained power through acquired means.

This is a huge discovery!

——

Ju Mang died.

As expected.

But what Lun Shengxi didn't expect was that the government actually fulfilled its promise.

The Light of Hope was also naturalized and listed by the government as the [Institute of Superpower Management].

"How about working in a research institute? I have connections here."

The former partner who joined the Light of Hope out of curiosity did not leave like Xian Lan, Li Yan and others, but stayed in the Institute of Superpowers.

At this time, Lun Shengxi's research had already entered a situation that would never be tolerated by the world.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll cause you trouble?"

"I haven't forgotten my promise. Besides, I won't let you in as a referral."

Always leave a way out for everything you do, and never let yourself get caught up in it.

Lun Shengxi always thought she was a smart woman.

"good."

Lun Shengxi had no intention of restraining himself. He just felt that after entering the research institute, he would be able to bring more help to his experiments.

After he joined the research institute, she did not assign Lun Shengxi a high-ranking position, but rather some very important ones but not of high rank.

For example, he started out as a laboratory key keeper and later became a laboratory assistant.

He spent about two years in the research institute, and the woman introduced him to a friend.

"This is Ers, who was once Miss Yanlan's adopted son. We have known each other for a long time. He was once Xi Guang's partner."

She did not say that Ers came to seek refuge with her, but she still decided to let Lun Shengxi take him with him.

The first impression of the brown-haired young man was quite bad. His skinny body was wrapped in tattered and faded work clothes. His shoulder blades were like two rusty knives pressing against the cloth. His hair was stuck to his cheeks by the rain, revealing half of his sinister brows.

Lun Shengxi noticed his unusually bright blood-red eyes, which were filled with anger mixed with unwillingness and the purest desire, like wildfire reflected at the bottom of a broken glass bottle.

He bit his lower lip, and fresh blood was oozing from the scab.

Lun Shengxi smiled.

"Welcome, I'm Lun Shengxi."

"Ers..."

This doesn't sound like something a parent would name their child.

"Does it mean anger? That's interesting."

It makes sense when you think about the fact that the young man was adopted by Zhen Lan, who is a tough psychic.

Although it's no use saying all this now, she's already dead.

Ers probably didn't expect that Lun Shengxi would know such a little bit of knowledge, and the wariness in his eyes that always treated strangers equally dissipated a lot.

"It's troublesome."

Although it seemed like he suffered a lot, the pain became a touchstone for tempering Ers's will.

After getting familiar with each other, Ers even expressed his desire for power many times.

"Is it useful to say so much?"

Lun Shengxi was not mocking Ers.

"Your powers...may be quite ordinary."

Makes people feel happy.

Such a euphemism did not please Ers.

In the final analysis, this is just a useless superpower. If you go out on the street and tell people it costs ten dollars for a session, no one will buy it.

At this moment, Lun Shengxi saw the astonishing anger and unwillingness bursting out from those red eyes.

The desire for power has become Ers's entire obsession.

Lun Shengxi, on the other hand, needs a voluntary experimental subject - isn't the person in front of him the best choice?

"Would you like to try?" Lun Shengxi smiled, even bewitchingly, "Maybe I can help you~"

However, Ers has not yet been blinded by desire.

"Help me, how can you help me?"

"The best outcome is to become a God."

Lun Shengxi was not afraid at all that Ers would not take the bait.

"Yes, God, like Ju Mang--"

Thinking of the dead Ju Mang, Ers couldn't calm down.

A naive and stupid guy, who knows nothing about the crisis at hand, and whose judgment of human nature can be said to be worse than that of a dog who understands human nature! A dog knows who not to mess with, how can such a person become a [God]!

Ers' chest heaved violently. He saw a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so worth giving it a try even if it meant death.

"good!"

——

"Although I don't know how far it has progressed, but it's Si Ling..."

Genes are such magical things, even though so much time has passed, the fact that they are 'grandfather and grandchildren' will not change.

Lun Shengxi was just like the one who bewitched Er Si in the beginning.

"I can help you. Just let me research a little bit, and I can help you and the Lanling Bird solve your imminent troubles."
