Canglan was silent for a moment: "We have studied it, and the government has also called on the public to hand it over if they find it."
Before they had fully researched the matter and had no idea how to use the crystals, they were defeated by a sudden disaster.
By the time they figured out some ways to use it, the number of people had dropped sharply.
Not only do humans have to face natural disasters, wild beasts, viruses, but also their own kind. In just less than two years, the number of people there is only one-tenth of what it was before the incident.
Jiang Wenxi ignored the other party's depression and continued to ask, "What's going on with your Fusion Beast Fund?"
"The remaining people wanted to survive, and they had begun to figure out how to use the crystal fragments. They discovered that the mutated beasts could resist the virus and become even stronger."
"At the time, humanity was in dire straits. It was then that someone suggested that if we combined animal genes, we might be able to resist the harsh environment outside. Experiments began."
Canglan still doesn’t understand whether this is good or bad?
They are alive now, but they will slowly turn into irrational beasts, and living will become painful.
"Since you can live normally after fusing with animal genes, why do you desperately need crystal fragments?"
Jiang Wenxi would not simply believe these words. She looked at Canglan and reminded him, "Consider the safety of the hostages before you speak."
Canglan's eyes gradually regained clarity, and he became depressed, so he simply sat down on the rock.
"Only the crystal fragments can stabilize our genes. If we lose contact with them for a long time, the genes in our bodies will collapse."
"The crystal fragments can also drive away those mutant beasts through special means. Our lives depend on the crystal fragments."
This is also a bitter experience gained after many people died.
"I see."
Canglan did not fully inform them that it was not only genetic damage, but there was also a more serious problem. Because of the genetic modification, they seemed unable to continue their offspring.
Only 5% of babies are born normal. The rest either die or mutate on the spot. Many of them develop animalistic characteristics. Many people cannot bear it and throw their babies into the wild as soon as they are born.
Their investigation found that the closer people are to the crystal fragments, the more stable their genes are and the possibility of having children increases by 30%. As for the suburbs far away from the crystal fragments, the birth rate of children is very low.
In the past decade or so, the number has been decreasing, and even beast-transformed children have rarely been born in recent years.
The researchers told them that the energy of the original crystal fragments was almost exhausted and new replacements had to be found.
It was so hard to find a crystal fragment, and there were other people fighting for it. I never imagined that this would happen in my dreams.
"What happened to the lion man you fought with last time?"
Canglan laughed at himself, "They advocate the transformation of animals. Ninety percent of the monsters you see are created by them, and their experiments have not stopped yet."
"Ninety percent?"
Canglan nodded. "At first, everyone agreed to the experiment, but later they realized it was too radical. Two professors on our side stopped the experiment and destroyed the experimental materials."
"The two sides fell out over this, and have since split into two factions. They both believe that as long as they can control the beast properly, they can drive it to their own advantage."
So it is not too much to say that they created 10% of the monsters. No one expected that the monsters they created not only did not help them, but also became an obstacle to their lives.
The originally small number of people dwindled again. In order to survive, they finally built a shelter and used the crystal fragments to drive away the monsters.
There is no medicine for regret in the world, they can only suffer the consequences of their own actions.
The system said quietly, "Host, I have a bold hypothesis. Do you still remember the laboratory beneath the wastewater? Those giant bugs? Perhaps that was the laboratory that was destroyed."
"It's possible."
Knowing that the situation was out of control, in order to stop the experiment, those people sacrificed themselves to trap the monsters. Unfortunately, their efforts were in vain and the experiment is still ongoing.
"System, can you complete the truth about the destruction of that world this time?"
"That's about it. The remaining extraterrestrial objects should be traceable to the main system. They're most likely organisms or viruses from other planets."
"Can we go to the main system and continue to get some benefits?"
"Host, you've almost plucked all the sheep bald."
How could his main system provide it with subsidies every time?
"Then wait a while, save up some money and then go exchange it."
It's fun to wait until the hair grows long and then pull it out.
Jiang Wenxi communicated with the system in her consciousness. Canglan saw that Jiang Wenxi didn't say anything and was afraid that she would go back on her word.
"Anything else you want to ask?"
"That's all." Jiang Wenxi knew almost everything. The system just needed to supplement it a little bit. Then she pulled out an orc from the space and threw it to Canglan.
She always keeps her word. After this lesson, these people will not dare to act rashly towards her in the future.
Canglan immediately took the person out, and the orcs behind him stepped forward to help the person to the back.
"Where are the others?"
Jiang Wenxi smiled and said, "I just said that if you want to redeem someone, you need to exchange them for crystal fragments."
I thought that if I told her some sensational stories, she would become sympathetic and soft-hearted.
Haha~ You were wrong. She likes to take advantage of others’ misfortunes.
Canglan was in a dilemma. He wanted to use the crystal fragments he found in the shelter, but he couldn't ignore the lives of those people.
Jiang Wenxi didn't have time to wait for Canglan to come up with an answer.
"After this time, the space wall can no longer stop you. Come to me when you have made up your mind."
"I'll give you ten days. If you really can't make it, just wait until the next space fusion. Before that, I guarantee they'll be alive, but after that, it's hard to say."
Jiang Wenxi threw a piece of metal: "Take this thing, as long as you come to this world, I will be reminded and will naturally find you."
Jiang Wenxi was worried about the situation in the villa, so she asked the system to teleport to the original location.
After disappearing, Canglan fell into confusion.
Jiang Wenxi settled in the basement: "System, can't you be more reliable? I'm talking about the rooftop, not the basement."
The system complained: "Host, there are Qin Gou's men on the roof."
Jiang Wenxi: "...I'm sorry, I wronged you."
"Why is Qin Gou here?"
"Host, I don't know either."
Jiang Wenxi contacted Shen Yunchuan, and her brother Chuan would tell her the answer.
"Brother Chuan, why is Qin Gou here?"
"Where are you?"
"I'm underground."
"They were attacked there, and when they passed by, they came down to help when they saw the situation."
"Did you ask me? Can I go up now?"
"No, I told you to go find the crystal fragments."
Jiang Wenxi: "...Okay, I'll come back in another way."
With Qin Gou around, Jiang Wenxi suddenly appeared unreasonable, "System, take me somewhere else, not too far from here."
Jiang Wenxi was teleported to a tall building. Looking down, she saw the road full of zombies.
He took out a helicopter and drove it back: "System scan the situation around the villa to see if there is any danger."
