Chapter 424 Experienced
Lin Wen returned to Shizhou dejected, feeling that the situation in the empire was too complicated for him to control.
It’s better to stay in the world of immortal cultivation with all its fighting and killing… This is not my specialty, it’s like someone who plays Red Alert commanding an army, someone who plays World of Warcraft playing League of Legends, and someone who plays StarCraft playing Honor of Kings.
It’s a cross-border thing!
Unable to display the strength!
I should find a good wife who can understand the situation to assist me, otherwise any single question would cost me hundreds of spirits, which is too much...
The only person Lin Wen could think of was Qin Luoshuang.
But when he made this request, Qin Luoshuang decisively refused.
She has completely seen through Lin Wen.
"You just want to show off your pitiful sense of superiority in front of me." Qin Luoshuang said unhappily.
She has been fooled several times. This guy looks normal, but he is actually a super narcissistic guy.
He shows his superiority in front of her every day and changes into various postures.
So annoying.
"I know you're amazing, incredibly powerful. You're invincible. You quietly built up Yaojing, gained the trust of the Supreme Council, exploited the information gap to plunder the Qin Group, and precisely timed your escape."
"What a perfect calculation! I, the Chief of Staff, am dull and stupid, dispensable. It doesn't matter whether I'm notified or not. I'm nowhere near as good as you anyway."
Qin Luoshuang folded her hands in front of her chest, looking like a cold and aloof goddess.
"Please, I already know you're powerful. I admit I'm an idiot, a surrendering deserter. Could you please stop pretending?"
Lin Wen scratched the back of his head, not knowing what was going on.
However, Lin Wen quickly used his rich experience to determine that she must be angry.
Then comfort me.
"No, no. Although I am indeed countless times stronger than you, you are not... uh, where are you going?"
"Haha, you're so smart, can't you guess it?"
Lin Wen reluctantly used his soul to ask [Immortal Guidance], and suddenly he understood and shouted.
"You go and pull..."
Bang!
A whole book hit Lin Wen in the face.

Evolutionary sect.
A once-famous sect.
A sect that has produced countless biological geniuses.
Leary, the first person to deconstruct reproductive isolation and the great mentor known as the father of modern biology.
Al, the great mentor who discovered the secrets of active proteins.
Will, the inventor of the complete genetic editing method.
Dr. Li, the world-renowned proposer of the New Human Plan, Dr. Ken, known as the king of iron wire worms, and many others all come from them.
Twenty years ago, it was declared a cult by the Empire for creating the Man with a Thousand Faces and Thousand Hands that shocked the world, and disappeared for a time under the crackdown of the Empire.
But, as the sect's motto says:
"The era of human free fall will eventually end, and the banner of evolution will eventually rise."
The Evolution Cult soon rose again from the ashes, gaining greater power than before.
The day after food prices collapsed.
The current leader of the Evolutionary Sect, Imperial Elder Moshili, came to his beloved home.
His loyal old butler, Dr. Ma, greeted him at the gate and walked with him into this huge biochemical base hidden in the sparsely populated Yunxiao Mountains.
"How's Ellie?"
Walking in the long corridor, Mosili asked casually.
His obese body did not affect his movements at all, and his steps were even lighter than those of the thin Dr. Ma.
"Not very good," Dr. Ma replied gravely. "The protein's translation has become uncontrollably pathogenic again. A large amount of brain tissue has grown on her third pair of falciforms. We have decided to destroy her."
"No, don't do that, dear horse."
Moseley felt remarkably relaxed upon returning home. He said in a cheerful tone, "You need to change this habit. Once you discover something is out of control, your first reaction is destruction. Don't you want to see the miracles nature has bestowed upon you? The possibilities for biological variation are endless. Perhaps we can catch a glimmer of rare inspiration from them."
"Yes." Dr. Ma bowed slightly, "I will obey the Lord's command."
"Where is the Alienation Group?" asked Moseli.
"Destroyed by the irreversible loss of nerve cells."
Moxili rubbed his chin and said, "I remember there seems to be an isolated case of neuronal apoptosis in Changshan County."
Dr. Ma replied, "Their dean published the case, but I didn't find any valuable information from it. It's as if the person suddenly acquired this special ability at some point."
The light in front of my eyes became brighter and the space suddenly became wider.
Mosili smiled warmly and came to the nursery where his children were born.
In the bright and spacious space, all the staff bowed to him: "Welcome home, my lord."
Mosili's eyes quickly swept over them, as if they were just a group of boring wooden figures, and his gaze soon fixed on a row of thick glass containers more than three meters high.
The glass container was filled with a green solution, in which some huge insect egg embryos were immersed.
Joy shone in Mosili's eyes. He walked quickly to the container and carefully observed every detail of it, like a father observing his baby in swaddling clothes.
He observed them one by one. The more he looked inside the glass container, the more mature the eggs became. They gradually grew mouthparts, chitin, tentacles, sickles, and even legs or hands like humans...
"good."
After reading it, Mosili praised it with satisfaction.
"There was no mistake in raising the children this time. You passed the test."
The staff in white coats then breathed a sigh of relief and bowed in unison, saying, "The glory of the Lord is my life."
Dr. Ma said: "The main reason is that we have made new breakthroughs in the structure-activity relationship and expression mechanism of proteins, and have a means to control the mutation of active proteins."
Mosili smiled and said, "The Stairway to the Sun and the Purifiers are not far from us."
The two walked into the next room.
Moseli's smile became more obvious. This was the incubation room where his children thrived.
"Their gene expression becomes more human-like during this period, which contributes to their intellectual growth," Dr. Ma said.
"Very good," Morrissey smiled. "Let me take a look at the new species hatching project before we move on to the final project."
Dr. Ma's face darkened a little: "Lord, they are not very successful..."
"It's okay, just take a look. Life itself is born after countless failures."
Mosili continued to move forward with his fat yet light steps.
They turned a few corners, and the base became dim and old in color. Some corners of the walls showed rust and dirty water stains, forming a sharp contrast with the previously advanced, bright and tidy place.
The empty base seemed to be filled with crazy laughter, or noise, or strange clanking sounds. Huge, old pipes were arranged in a disorderly manner in every room.
The first two rooms were empty.
Moseley entered the third room, which appeared to be a large prison cell with a strange creature imprisoned behind it.
As soon as it saw Moseli, it screamed and shouted madly: "Pig, pig, pig! You come, you come, hahahaha!"
Mo Xili smiled gently and said, "Hello, Xu Ziqi."
The creature suddenly stood up. It was like a huge snake with a human head on its tail. It was ugly and grotesque, with an abnormal number of wrinkles on its face.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine! I'm so fine!"
The weirdo laughed and said, "I am locked up in this dark dungeon, unable to go anywhere, and I am accompanied by these lunatics every day. It couldn't be better."
Mo Xili smiled softly and said, "Zi Qi, I know you are very dissatisfied, but your body is already rotten, and this is the only way to save you."
The weirdo laughed sarcastically and said, "Thank you so much, my old friend." His tail swung wildly, making the prison door rattle.
"You'll be out soon, after my research is successful."
Moseli lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.
"Besides, don't you think this is interesting? The combination of human and lizard has the advantages of both, but there was a little accident..."
"Huh, an accident?" The weirdo jumped up. "You lost the lizard's body and grafted me onto its tail. What a big accident!"
Moshili smiled and said, "But isn't this a miracle? The art of life is to break isolation..."
"Interesting? Miracle? Art?" The weirdo laughed, revealing his fangs. "Oh, yes, I've thought of something even more interesting, a virtue of lizards... I'm going to show you, to demonstrate..."
Dr. Ma suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Stop!"
But it was too late. With a slight popping sound, the lizard's tail broke off from the human head and jumped wildly in place, while the human head rolled out of the prison door and rolled to Moseli's feet, face up, smiling at him horrifiedly.
Moshili sighed: "What a pity, I have no money left. I could have bought him a better tail and a human head, so he wouldn't be lonely..."
Bang! He crushed the head with one foot.
"Never mind, I'm not interested anymore. Let's finish the main project."
Dr. Ma called the staff to clean up the remains and cells, and then came to the core of the entire base - the ladder laboratory.
This was a very tall and spacious room, with a wall of extremely thick glass running across the center of the room, blocking the green solution that looked like an ocean.
Below the glass wall is a whole row of tiny terminal operating desks, where countless staff members are busy working.
"start."
Morrissey stood at the console and gave the order.
A glass container containing mature larvae was placed into the green culture medium.
A syringe robotic arm reached in from the hole behind the glass box and pierced its leg artery, and a golden solution flowed through the catheter.
Dr. Ma said, "This is the third version of the optimized solar solution. I have delayed its effectiveness to the slowest possible level. The mitochondria should be able to withstand it."
Morrissey's expression grew serious. "Mitochondria were once the source of life's energy, but now their effectiveness is less than one percent of what it once was. Our attempts to improve them are extremely risky..."
Dr. Ma said, "But if this is not the case, the biological evolution path cannot be compared with the weapon path. Tanks, planes, artillery, and missiles can easily destroy the biological army. The Gray Army was instantly wiped out in Changshan County, which is the best proof of this."
Morrissey's expression was clouded with gloom.
The demise of the Gray Legion remains a mystery to this day. They don't know what kind of weapons Changshan County used to wipe out a 12,000-man biochemical force in an instant.
Even the most powerful theoretically powerful fuel-air bomb today cannot do this.
According to their later investigation, the scene of the incident was full of huge cracks, as if it had been cut by countless fragments.
The provocative photos sent by Changshan County also proved this point. All the bodies had cuts and lacerations.
But this just makes things more difficult to understand.
They could only assume that Changshan County had a powerful fragmentation bomb, and they dropped hundreds of these bombs on the heads of the Gray Legion in an instant.
The Gray Men have been modified, and the chitinous shells on their skin are very hard, so ordinary bombs will not cause fatal injuries.
Such a force was wiped out in an instant, proving that the weapons faction once again had the upper hand.
The defeat of the Giant Army in Shizhou also proves this point.
Therefore, they urgently need some more powerful biochemical special combat bodies.
Moseli's "Purifier Project" and "Sun Staircase Project" were greatly accelerated, and the final project, which was originally scheduled to be carried out next month, was brought forward.
But the bad news didn't end there. The food program didn't make a penny, but instead suffered heavy losses, which plunged Morrissey and his research into an economic crisis and forced him to drastically reduce his budget.
Dr. Ma sighed slightly and continued, "We now have the necessary physical strength and fighting instincts. We've sacrificed a little intelligence, but having the intelligence of a six-year-old human child is sufficient. My research has shown that the more active intelligence, the less instinctive intelligence."
Mosili nodded. "I once met an old woman who knew nothing, but she could calculate numbers within 30 digits in an instant, faster than a computer. But when I taught her math, she couldn't do it anymore."
Dr. Ma: "That's right. Biochemical special combat bodies don't need much intelligence, just the ability to fight instinctively."
"So Yu Zhongxian's plan can only be a compromise," Moseley said. "The best weapon for a living thing is always itself, not external objects."
"But they lack energy," Dr. Ma said. "Without energy, living things will never be able to compare with those mechanical and gunpowder creations."
"The only way is to transform the mitochondria." Moseli said the original words of his great mentor Leary, and this is also the direction of their lifelong efforts.
Mitochondria are the site of aerobic respiration in most organisms, and changes in them mean changes in the power core.
Moseley has failed many times, and this time is no exception.
Thirty minutes after the injection of the solar solution, the larva suddenly struggled and blood spurted out from all parts of its body.
Soon, it became motionless.
"examine."
Moseli said expressionlessly that although the failure was expected, he still couldn't help feeling disappointed.
The glass container carrying the body was taken away by a robotic arm.
A moment later, the inspection report came out, with the conclusion written at the top of a long string of text.
"The life force couldn't be sustained, the function collapsed, and the mitochondria were destroyed by the solar solution, so the purpose of the transformation was not achieved."
"continue!"
But failures came one after another, and Moseli's mood gradually became irritable.
Dr. Ma said, "Lord, we need a stronger mother to produce a stronger embryo. I have already cultivated the insect body to the strongest, but humans do not have it."
"money!"
Moseli gritted his teeth and said, "There's no money left."
At this moment, a staff member rushed up and handed over the phone.
"Lord, it's Elder Lin Yabo."
Moshili answered the phone and said impatiently, "If you have something to say, tell me quickly."
Lin Yabo's cold voice came from the phone: "Elder Mo, was the Pure Body successful?"
"No, I'm short of money."
"If we destroy Changshan County, we will have money."
Mosili suddenly became furious and roared, "Then go ahead and destroy it! Don't you have many means? Aren't you the masters of the empire? How can a small county governor jump over our heads? A plan worth hundreds of billions of dollars was ruined by him! Why don't you kill him?"
"Elder Mo, don't be angry. That guy has the power of military governorship, economic power, and military power. Therefore, although Changshan County is a county, it is a special zone."
"He just made a great contribution to the Supreme Council, and there are rumors that he is related to the First Princess. It will be difficult to bring him down."
After Lin Yabo finished speaking, he added: "In fact, apart from the Supreme Council and the Emperor, no one can defeat him politically."
"Then destroy him physically!"
"Elder Mo is a military and political entity, equivalent to a smaller Qin Group. His army and spies have increased the cost of our actions infinitely."
Mo Xili said impatiently: "Elder Lin, please stop beating around the bush. My patience is limited."
"Okay, Elder Mo, I just want to tell you."
Lin Yabo's voice on the other end of the phone became friendly, obviously not wanting to anger Elder Mo.
"I still have some secrets to support you, but you must ensure that the first mission of the Pure Body is to kill that little beast."
Moxley's fat face wrinkled up. "What is that?"
"Three thousand healthy adults and four hundred healthy babies."
Moxley complained: "This is less than before."
"That's enough, Elder Mo. Now is the perfect time."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Moseli continued the experiment, but all failed.
According to the examination report, most of the larvae could not survive the disease, and a few survived the first stage, but died from the apoptosis of nerve cells during the second stage of metamorphosis.
Moseli fell into a long period of thought.
After a moment, he ordered: "Dilute the solar solution to one-tenth and slow the injection speed to one-third."
Dr. Ma said, "This won't stimulate the mitochondria enough, and the strength of our adult bodies will be greatly reduced."
"One success first." Moseli replied simply.
But even so, most of the larvae died in the second stage.
It was not until late at night that one of the larvae finally successfully completed the metamorphosis process and transformed into an adult.
Mosley looked at the glass container obsessively.
The adult floating in the green solution has a smooth and beautiful body, two pairs of huge sickles and a mouthpart full of sharp teeth.
It was dissatisfied with being confined in a small space, and easily broke the container and broke the glass wall that even tanks and heavy artillery could not break.
Green solution rushed out of it.
This newly born pure being broke through its cage and jumped out.
All the staff in the laboratory screamed and ran away, except Moseli.
The Pure One walked gently to Mosili, raised his sickle, and knelt down in front of the fat body.
Mosley smiled.
The instinct of training still remains in its mind.
The Pure Ones Project was a success.
Although it is just a weak body.
A truly complete body requires a strong life, undying nerve cells, and money.
Mosili looked towards Changshan County and gave orders.
"Kill that little bastard."
——
late at night.
Qin Luoshuang took a hot bath and her mood improved a little.
She came out wrapped in a bath towel and was about to continue handling some matters when the towel was suddenly pulled down, exposing her pure white jade-like body to the air.
Qin Luoshuang knew who it was without even thinking.
"Xia, stop it, I'm busy."
"Don't."
"That's enough!"
"No, just for a moment."
Qin Luoshuang turned around and pushed her away: "Go away, go away, don't bother me, I get annoyed when I see you."
"Hehe, what's so annoying about seeing me? I told you to drink more milk and eat more papaya, but you refused..."
"Haha, is being big such a big deal? When you have a husband, he'll just be after your body."
"I don't want a husband. I just want Sister Qin to be my husband."
"Go away!"
While they were playing around, the phone rang.
"Okay, stop messing around."
Qin Luoshuang put on a bath towel, pushed away Xia who was pouting, sat back at the table and answered the phone.
"Xiaoxiao."
When Qin Luoshuang heard this voice, his blood froze.
"How are you?"
