The monkey's expression was sinister, and its eyes grew increasingly dark.
Linnaeus's words were like knives stabbing into his heart...
It unconsciously reminded him of the pain he felt when he was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and the cold, indifferent looks he received from those superhuman doctors...
The monkey will never forget those looks!
[Monkey: Hahahahahahaha...]
[What nonsense could someone like you, a prodigy who gained divine power and was adored by everyone since childhood, possibly know!]
Do you know what it feels like to be lying in a hospital, wracked with excruciating pain, every nerve throbbing as if being torn apart, while those with superhuman healing abilities look at you with disdain, as if to say, "Why aren't you dead yet?" or "How can an ordinary person be wasting resources here?"
Even my stepmother, who lived with my stepfather, wants me to die soon! She thinks I'm a burden to her!
I survived, and I never cared how long I would live! But at least I want to live with dignity!
I want to make these high and mighty people feel the same pain I did!
Although the monkey was typing in the system, its expression became unusually excited, and its whole body trembled like a leaf due to excessive excitement.
Seeing this, Hua Lingze stroked her chin thoughtfully, lost in thought.
That's so strange...
Judging from the monkey's facial expression and reaction, he didn't seem to be under an illusion.
The monkey's eyes were fierce and filled with anger.
However, his pupils did not lose focus.
This is not the state a person under an illusion should be in.
What exactly did Linnaeus do?
It doesn't seem like a superpower like "freezing spell"?
......
Linnae gazed calmly at the monkey.
The monkey's current mood suddenly brought many things to mind.
It wasn't just about what I experienced before I became an apostle.
Linnai also thought of many other people: Chen Wei, who became a hacker with superpowers; the otherworldly bandit leader who hated the Night Watchmen; his parents, who used to argue about money all the time; and those low-level superhumans who were forced by life to take on cannon fodder missions in the city's mission hall to make a living and barely afford the spiritual breathing tax...
Lin Nai asked calmly: Is this your reason for fighting?
[The monkey scoffed: "What else?"]
[Linnai, expressionless: You endured cruel genetic modification, fought off the torment of cancer cells, and struggled so hard to survive... all just to make those high and mighty superhumans feel the pain you went through?]
[Monkey: ...You'd never understand anyway!]
Lin Nai said softly, "Then you're wrong. I understand your resentment all too well... Never mind, I'm too lazy to tell you about my experiences back then."
[I want to remind you that you're not much different now than you were back then. Back then, you were disliked by the healing-type superhumans and your mother; now, you're just used as a weapon by the gene company because you have some use. Once the G-type mutated cancer cells in your body evolve to a point you can't control, do you think those people at the gene company will still care about your life or death? They'll just throw you away like trash again, just like before.]
Oh, by the way, what else did the genetics company leave in your body... a genetic lock, right?
[You should know very well that the genetic company didn't modify your genes to save you; they just wanted to mold you into their weapon. You were just one of their thousands of experimental subjects, the kind they'd throw into a mass grave if you failed.]
As an ordinary person, you were abandoned by the entire world; now, even after genetic modification, you are still a puppet being used by others...
Don't you think this is unfair? Are you really willing to be a tool used by others?
【monkey:......】
The monkey remained silent for a long time.
After a long while, he continued typing in the system.
[Monkey: Hehehe... You're right. But there's nothing I can do, that's just how unfair fate is to me! From the moment I was born, I was destined not to live like a normal person! So I don't care anymore!]
The executives at the gene company have promised me that if I win the national novice competition, I will receive the gene lock, gain my freedom, and they will provide me with the latest G-type mutant cancer cell control solution, allowing me to control the evolution speed of G-type cancer cells!
[Linnaeus:......]
[(Speechless.jpg) What kind of company is this gene company? You've been there for so long and you don't know?]
You'd be better off believing I'm Qin Shi Huang than believing them...
[Monkey: ? (frowning) ...What emperor?]
[Linnai: Oh... sorry, I forgot you're not from Earth, you don't know who Qin Shi Huang is.]
Linnaeus paused, then asked in his mind, "Mertz, what is a gene lock? Do you know anything about it?"
Mozi's voice came quickly: "Oh~ Of course I know, sir. Gene lock is a kind of gene control lock, which is used by many companies and forces in human civilization. It is usually used by the leaders of the forces to put in the bodies of assassins and bind them to their personal systems, so that the assassins cannot betray them."
Lin Nai nodded in realization: "I see..."
Linnaeus immediately activated the Merz scanning system and performed a full-body scan on the monkey.
Soon, he discovered something resembling a nanochip on the monkey's chest, near its heart.
The chip was extremely small, with a diameter close to a nanometer. If it weren't for the system scan by Mozi, it wouldn't even be noticeable to the naked eye.
Lin Nai touched her chin thoughtfully.
[Linnai: Hmm... By the way, if I could help you unlock your genetic potential, or even suppress the evolution of the G-type cancer cells in your body, wouldn't that mean I've given you a second life? Would I be your reborn parent?]
[Monkey: (Disdainfully) (Pouting) If you can unlock the genetic code and help me control G-type cancer cells, I'll call you dad! Anyone can brag, right? Do you think you're God...?]
[Didi...]
[Click!]
[Hint: Your genetic control has been unlocked!]
Lin Nai tilted her head suspiciously: "Isn't this quite easy?"
monkey:"?????"
