Chapter 51: Fall "The Proud Daughter of Heaven Falls in One Day"
Two hours had passed since Xu An came out of the ant nest.
The ant nest's signal shielding system had been completely shut down, and various chaotic signal sources were spreading radially in all directions. Among them, a coordinate anchor point for a distress call seemed particularly weak.
But the weaker the distress signal, the less likely it is to arouse suspicion from the base.
This is exactly what Xu An wanted.
The chip in the base uses biological energy. The weaker the biological function, the weaker the chip signal. That's why Xu An easily agreed to hand Baili Yunle over to Lin Yu.
Given Lin Yu's personality, he would definitely not let go of Baili Yunle, this special experimental subject. And when his body functions gradually declined due to the experiment, he could reduce the signal source to a level that would not cause the base to suspect anything.
Now, she just had to wait.
Xu An took a deep breath.
She could sense unusual energy fluctuations slowly rising from the distant seabed—it was the Datura plant that was rooted in the deep sea and the source of all the alien species' "worship."
As long as it is destroyed, all the alien species in a violent state can be eliminated immediately. The remaining alien species will gradually die as time passes.
Xie Shuqin had guessed correctly before. In order to share a living space with the alien species, the humans on the ground dug tunnels connecting the land and the sea underground, built highly radiation-proof buildings, and hid in the severely polluted seabed.
Those "mermaids" are humans who were transformed after being infected while performing ground missions.
What Xu An hadn't expected was that a crazy human alien researcher like Lin Yu would actually work so hard to research purification equipment and pistil technology in order to allow completely normal humans without awakened superpowers to live a normal life.
When the bright flowers and green leaves in the habitat came into view, Xu An seemed to have returned to more than a hundred years ago - when the world was still a green meadow.
She hadn't seen such vivid creatures in a long time, especially on the seabed.
So Xu An was moved for the first time. After getting Lin Yu's guarantee, she handed Baili Yunle and the other bionic people of A061 to Lin Yu for research.
But her goal is not just to provoke a war between the two humans, but to use the strong emotions generated by their fight to attract the datura plants that are dormant on the seabed to the shore.
She had done this once before, during the Battle of Humanity 19 years ago.
Unfortunately, her power wasn't strong enough to suppress the mandragora plant. The intense energy waves converged, causing the tower to explode, leaving Yin Shu and her researchers unable to even retain a complete crystal core.
But this time, she has been working hard for 19 years.
Xu An almost self-destructively exposed all her inhuman sides in front of humans, making humans fear her and yearn for her at the same time.
She endured the pain of the experiment, and day after day, year after year, madly aroused the desires of the researchers, and then absorbed their emotions to strengthen her own strength.
Even if she didn't like doing it.
Later, Xu An found that human fear could no longer satisfy her need to improve her supernatural powers, so she turned her attention to the base.
So, on that full-moon night, she attacked the base alone, and put a dagger dripping with bright red blood against the neck of the base commander Ran Yue.
Xu An blinked her rusty mechanical prosthetic eye, and scarlet supernatural power spread around her like a blood mist.
"Are you the Commander?" she said calmly. "I have a favor to ask of you."
Then, she finally got to stay at the base, her so-called mission being to help the base fend off attacks from flying alien species, even though most of those alien species were so fat they could only fly ten meters high.
During these days at the base, Xu An felt as if he were back at the Yinshu Research Institute. Whether they were humans or androids, they were almost all more sincere.
For the first time, Xu An began to hate the strange energy brought by fear, and longed more for what humans said... love and hope.
During this time, Xu An also wondered if there were other ways to balance the relationship between aliens and humans.
However, as long as the Datura plant exists, it will continuously release bromine mist, causing the alien species to enter a period of irritability and forcibly control the alien species to provide energy for itself.
This world has only two choices: either humans become extinct, and alien species become more violent under the control of the Datura plant, fighting each other and leading to species extinction; or the Datura plant is eliminated and all alien species are killed before humans become extinct.
A huge object gradually fell from the sky, its huge shadow completely covering her and almost crushing her.
Xu An watched silently as the base slowly descended.
After spending so many years at the base, she almost knew which ones were humans and which ones were androids.
This time, as long as she used the highest command program for commanding androids left by Yin Shu, all androids would obey her command. This would prevent other alien species from interfering with her invasion of the mandala plants, and at the same time, destroy the androids in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately, as fate would have it, the thing that Yin Shu had tried so hard to dissuade back then would now be completely carried out by the alien species she had personally raised.
Xu An sighed softly, glanced at the base, then swam towards the deep sea, slowly transformed into human legs, and landed on the human habitat on the seabed.
"They are coming." Xu An said as he walked slowly ashore, hooked his toes and put on his clothes.
Lin Yu had been waiting for a long time, his fingertips gently tapping the corner of the table as he watched the base signal on the detector getting closer and closer. "Does Ran Yue know about this?"
"No one knows except you and me." Xu An slowly walked towards the instrument next to Lin Yu and carried out radiation clearance.
"That's good." Lin Yu lay back comfortably. "I was afraid you'd tell Mu Yan that you were going to purge all the alien species. Otherwise, she would definitely risk her life for her Mr. Qi."
After cleaning up the radiation, Xu An took a leisurely sip of water and casually asked, "I just saw Qi Heng in the water. His energy fluctuations are getting stronger. Was it Mu Yan who did this?"
Lin Yu shrugged, and while operating the habitat command board, he led Xu An through the blocked gates. "What else? Qi Heng's energy fusion degree is too poor. No one wants to use him for the interspecies fusion experiment. No one except Mu Yan will touch him."
"She's even dreaming of endowing Qi Heng with the special powers that only females possess?" Xu An chuckled. "I'm curious. Mu Yan imprisoned Qi Heng for research while spreading rumors that he was dead. She loved him madly, yet she wouldn't even allow him to utter a single word of love. What was she thinking?"
The doors of the experiments opened slowly with the operation of the decryption board. After a dull sound, there was the sound of transparent glass being opened and the sound of sea water surging.
Lin Yu was silent for a moment, then walked into the corridor first and said softly, "She and I were college classmates. A hundred years ago, you know, we still had normal family relationships, and alien species weren't as rampant as they are now."
"But everything changed after we graduated from university." Lin Yu sighed softly and slowly looked at Xu An. "She was the most outstanding graduate in the xenogenetic research major. She was chosen by a professor who was involved in xenogenetic research and development of biological weapons. She should have had a bright future. But that professor turned out to be a beast."
Lin Yu gritted his teeth and said, "He forced Mu Yan to crush his own thoughts and destroyed our most outstanding genius who had the greatest potential to make great contributions."
"Force?" Xu An frowned and sighed with regret, "Among our alien species, it has always been female aliens who force male aliens. It would be great if she followed me..."
"Yeah..." Lin Yu smiled bitterly, "That so-called professor exploited her thoughts while instigating her to constantly pursue 'beauty', forcing her to kill her favorite alien with her own hands and attach its tail to the lover who saved her from danger..."
Xu An paused, "Isn't this so-called 'beauty' just putting everything humans don't have on them?"
"That's what I mean. She was left in the experimental chamber until the aliens were about to attack the research institute, and thus escaped disaster." Lin Yu calmed down for a while before saying, "I found her in the ruins. The once glamorous and beautiful daughter of heaven, now lying there covered in scars, almost dying."
Lin Yu looked at Xu An, his fingers clenched into fists seeming to tremble: "Do you know what this feeling is like?"
Xu An looked at her in silence for a long time before speaking: "So you accepted the cruel human and alien experiments, and used it to hide Mu Yan and Qi Heng?"
Lin Yu laughed almost crazily: "After the alien species completely arrived, I had no choice. I could only start the experiment and soak all those who disobeyed me and were infected by the alien genes in the jar."
As they finished walking through the underwater corridor, the last door opened, and various human experimental subjects came into view behind them. The dim green light emitted from the jar shone on Lin Yu, almost swallowing her whole.
Xu An stopped in the underwater passage that he had not yet completed. The surrounding area was filled with shimmering sea water cast by the lights.
"Then now..." Xu An raised his head slightly and looked into her eyes, "Why are you asking me to eliminate all the alien species?"
Now almost all of Lin Yu's subordinates are half-alien species, and once Xu An makes the mandragora plant feel threatened, all controllable alien species will almost immediately go berserk, and at that time, her underwater habitat will also be severely damaged.
In addition, these semi-alien weapons are also Lin Yu's only reliance on the ground. If Xu An fails, these damaged or uncontrollable alien weapons will become the biggest threat to her life on the ground.
"I know everything you're thinking." Lin Yu looked straight at Xu An, "but I don't want to make any more mistakes."
The human laboratory behind her slowly lit up, the light hitting her hair from behind. "This kind of experiment, whether on humans or aliens, is paradoxical. I've been wrong for a hundred years..."
She smiled softly, "So Xu An, whether you succeed or not, destroy this laboratory."
