Chapter 118 Endless

"Asay, we should go out now."

Opposite them, in the bloody arena, the remains of corpses were piled up into small hills. The huge beast leaned over and gnawed at the half-broken cat-eared loli, but the frail beast girl struggled to raise one hand and touched the ear of the beast that was tearing her flesh, tears of blood flowing down her dirty face.

The out-of-control beast felt the strange movement of the food in its mouth and stopped eating in confusion, with a low, puzzled howl echoing in its throat.

"It doesn't hurt, Leila. Asay, hurry up... hurry up... finish eating."

"Otherwise they will come..."

After awakening the power, Loli, the beastman with extremely strong healing ability, began to repair the torn wounds visibly during the pause of one or two sentences, and a dim light gradually lit up in the heart center of the broken body. In the last moments of his life, this special little beastman awakened a rare mental power.

The lifeless cat eyes lit up, and she stared at the beastly Asay and shouted, "Eat me."

On the other side of these devastated images, the young man was silent and almost dead, with blood seeping out of his clenched fists.

A warm hand reached out and held him, with a firm and irrefutable force.

"Asay, hold on! Once we get past this last memory fragment, we'll be out."

Looking at the last gray frame, Leila Asay nodded silently.

The 'complete gene repair' that he voluntarily underwent this time was itself a process of self-remodeling, a process that inevitably involved the construction and remodeling of the spirit.

Before he lay down in the repair cabin, Chris told him about the risks involved. The repair fluid this time was extracted from the latest version of human gene telomerase. This new enhanced version would have a stronger effect on stimulating mental power.

The body that received the gene solution would show unstable reversion to animalism, which was within their expectations. However, no one would have thought that the so-called "spiritual power stimulation" would be in this way, an endless cycle of the most painful memories. If the "genetic memories" he had passed before were derived from the known sufferings of his ancestors, he had passed them.

However, his own suffering made him fall into the maze again and again. In the memory of the leopard-eared boy, he only had the completely cold body of the cat-eared little Lolita in his arms after he regained consciousness.

Now, it was revealed before my eyes in this way without my being prepared. It was clear and could not be avoided. I could not even close my eyes and look at it——

He has been trapped in this memory corridor for too long.

Although he knew that if he didn't get out, he would lose his mind completely and Leila Asay in reality would completely degenerate into a real beast.

But even so, the scene before him, which he had deliberately forgotten deep in his memory, made him hesitate to move.

Su Xi was still wearing the same white dress, and she did not force him anymore. Instead, she turned around silently and took the lead to step into the last fragment of memory.

The obstacles encountered when forcing one's way into someone's most unbearable memory were unimaginable pain. The obstacles were like the sharpest blades, cutting through her skin inch by inch. Su Xi glanced at the leopard-eared boy with a blank expression behind her, and continued to force her way through. The sharp blades entangled her arms, and when they were about to devour half of her body——

A beastly claw blocked her way. Layla Asay finally stepped into her worst memory.

Su Xi was still walking in front. Wherever she went barefoot, fine white flowers spread, covering the bloody mountain of corpses. Then some things that could not be told were snowflakes or tiny petals fell from the sky.

The picture at the final freeze frame has changed.

She walked over, stroked the giant leopard's head with one hand, and picked up the orc Loli, who had not yet closed her eyes, with the other hand.

"Leila, do you have anything to say to Asay?"

But there was too much blood, which dyed the girl's white dress red. Su Xi didn't care. Instead, she adjusted her posture so that Leila, who was lying in her arms, could be more comfortable.

The cat-eared Loli looked at the giant wild leopard in front of her in confusion, then turned around and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar leopard-eared boy who slowly walked in. Then the little Loli smiled:

"very nice!"

"Thank you for being here, Sister Suxi."

Then she turned her head, and stretched out her remaining arm tremblingly in the direction of the leopard-eared boy. Asai could not help but kneel down, with red eyes, and tremblingly grasped it with her sharp claws.

Lori's weak but determined voice rang out: "Asha'i, you will become the strongest, the most powerful orc! Just like the great ancestors of our golden age that you told me before bedtime stories."

"Eat me all before those bad guys eat me." Leila smiled while crying, and turned her gaze to the huge beast standing still beside her. "Leila doesn't feel any pain, really."

"Leila has awakened her spiritual power. She is very powerful! She can help Asay in the fight..." Little Loli wiped away her tears and said forcefully, "Don't forget me! Asay!"

"good."

"Leila will be with Asay forever."

She smiled weakly, trembling in the pain of being bitten by the huge wild leopard, and said the last sentence. The broken head rolled to the side...

The leopard-eared boy at the side finally cried out, like a toddler who no longer cares. The bloody and dark scenes suddenly shattered.

They stood in endless void again.

Su Xi couldn't help but give him a tight hug and said in a low but firm voice: "Let's go, let's go out and fulfill Leila's true wish."

The world of illusion suddenly opened up.

In the endless fall, two different passages flashed. Su Xi let go of his hand and said, "You have to walk on your own from now on, Asai."

"good."

The golden eyes sparkled, and the leopard-eared boy, who had originally looked pretty, slowly grew taller, and his facial features gradually became more resolute. He moved his lips, as if he wanted to say thank you, but no sound came out.

He resolutely turned around and walked in another direction.

in the real world.

Floating island. Cold spring area. The icy blue spiritual power surged, instantly separating the man and the beast who had just severed the deep spiritual connection, with a bang!

The orc in the pool was grabbed by a strong hand and thrown out of the cold spring area. After breaking through the stone wall, it rolled several times before landing at the feet of the anxiously waiting Chris. The medical team behind the black-haired beta hurried forward to conduct a series of examinations.

After being repaired again, the orc had obviously become extremely strong. The deep scratches on the ground and the broken rocks everywhere showed the force of the blow. However, the orc who regained consciousness just shook his body and jumped up intact.

He just half-bared his fangs, narrowed his golden eyes, and stared fiercely at the two unclear figures shrouded in the mist in the cold spring area, and was about to rush in again.

Chris, who was well prepared, tripped him by accident, found the most vulnerable spot on his neck, and stabbed it with the syringe.

The orc fell into a coma temporarily after his power surged. Chris waved his hand and the well-trained medical staff quickly took away the trouble.

In the cold spring. Su Xi just woke up from the dizziness and found herself wrapped from head to toe in a warm towel. She knew who it was.

After withdrawing her spiritual power and confirming that Asai was fine, Suxi pulled away the towel that blocked her view and met a pair of eyes full of displeasure. Although she hadn't done anything bad, Suxi couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"What?" The man's voice was calm and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. "Are you afraid that I'll hurt him?"

Su Xi's breath was choked, and she took the towel from his hand like a flatterer and started to dry her hair herself. In fact, she could just stand in the wind-drying area next to her and let the warm wind blow her hair dry automatically.

But the two of them insisted on doing it themselves, and the towel in Su Xi's hand was taken away. Fitzgerald gently pulled, and Su Xi sat in his arms obediently, asking her to raise her hands and change her clothes.

However, the two did not speak to each other. After Chris and his friends left, the area was completely closed off.

"Fitz," Su Xi looked up and tried to talk, "I have good news!"

"The blocked area in the heart chakra has been unblocked." She closed her eyes slightly and pulled his hand against her chest. They both clearly felt the broken chakra under her palm begin to rotate slowly. Although the speed was extremely slow, the increasing energy was able to slowly fill in the missing part, instead of leaving no trace like fine sand passing through a rough sieve as before.

"Yes." He closed his eyes, hiding the joyful smile in his eyes, and whispered in a low voice: "I know."

"So, I threw him very gently. If he couldn't even withstand that little bit of force, he wouldn't have expected to awaken the blood power of his Golden Age ancestors."

The red-haired alpha lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "Once his beast transformation process is stabilized, he can help you with your recovery."

Su Xi: “Huh?”

Fitzgerald just smiled and said nothing.

Medical Department.

After Chris finished everything for Asay and saw with her own eyes the beastly boy immersed in the gene repair fluid again, she instructed the medical soldier on duty to report the situation at any time and walked towards the laboratory where Kolot worked.

As a national idol across disciplines, although Kolot enjoys a reputation among the common people, he only holds an honorary position in the Royal Academy of Sciences and does not receive corresponding treatment.

But in the First Fortress, he enjoyed the best scientific research conditions. However, the area Chris stepped into was now full of documents scattered on the ground, papers flying everywhere, Kolot was looking for something, and his assistants were even more busy cleaning up.

"Sir Klot, the research vessel 'Giant Whale' is ready and waiting for you."

Chris gave him a military salute.

"Chris, you're just in time!" Clot greeted her happily, and then called one of his assistants over.

"This is Daniel. He has been mainly responsible for the cultivation of Miss Su Xi's gene repair medicine. Please take care of him while I am away!"

Kolot introduced the two to each other.

Chris: "Don't worry, I will take good care of your research project. I hope you can give me remote guidance on the specific work on the Giant Whale."

Daniel suddenly said, "Lieutenant General, this time the teacher is going to the edge of the universe's tomb to detect abnormal fluctuations related to the collapse of the universe. This trip is extremely risky and is related to the existing order of the entire universe. I think--"

However, under Chris's gaze, his voice became lower and lower. Although they were both betas, the fierce aura of this female beta made Daniel silent.

"I remember you. Your grades are excellent, but you are a little less talented than your sister Alyssa," Chris narrowed his eyes slightly. She was talking about the project besides Su Xi. "You also performed very well in the last incident of changing the defense of the insect nuclear fortifications."

"Daniel, don't worry! Don't worry! My old bones are not that useless!" Collot laughed and tried to smooth things over. In the last few years of his life, he was able to fully display his ambitions. Although he looked old, his eyes and complexion showed passion and energy that young people like Daniel could hardly catch up with.

"So whether it's the research on 'genetic modification solution' or the project on 'prediction of cosmic collapse', I can still handle both!"

"Go with them and help me find a hand-drawn picture," the old scientist shook the tablet in his hand and pulled out a picture to show him, "This is it, the K value curve that is the core of the prediction model. I remember finding a very similar waveform graph in another project with a different base. It may be a random hand-drawn picture I drew in my early research at the border..."

"This is very important! You'd better find it for me before we set off! If my assumption is true, maybe we need to relocate the location where the probe arrives!"

"Go!" Klotte sent Daniel away, watched him walk away and made sure he couldn't hear their conversation.

"The foreshock waves of the cosmic collapse have destroyed three Class II civilization galaxies. Although they are not a threat to human survival for the time being, they should not be underestimated! Hurry up, everyone!"

After urging the other assistants, Collot turned around and handed over all the projects related to the "Complete Gene Repair Solution" to Chris.

He said solemnly: "Regarding the Asay genetic degeneration incident, I have checked all the experimental procedures and there is no source contamination or operational error..."

"This only shows that the latest gene enzyme mixed reaction is risky to some extent. I suggest suspending the latest application plan and--"

He hesitated for a moment, and said to Chris more carefully: "You'd better persuade His Highness to do a comprehensive genetic examination. This time the gene enzyme was taken from his latest backup. I am worried about... the source of the degeneration..."

Chris frowned, this was also her worry.

But she could only say: "I have ordered a temporary halt to large-scale applications. Let's see if Asay's bestiality can be stabilized in the subsequent repairs."

Kolot thought about it for a moment and sighed: "This is the only way."

"I have never advocated for humans' excessive pursuit of evolution. The original natural selection has been distorted by excessive human interference into a paradoxical number that will never reach the top." Kolot said in a heavy tone. He glanced at Chris's expression and added, "I know, it's not that you don't want to stop now, but..."

"Teacher, I found it."

When Collot saw Daniel coming over, he stopped discussing this topic with Chris. He smiled and praised Daniel, but when he took the curve chart from Daniel and looked at it, he smiled and said:

"Daniel, you've got the wrong number. These are the monitoring readings for Miss Suxi's chakra repair—"

However, while talking and casually comparing the two curve analysis charts, Kolot suddenly stopped talking. He stacked the two pieces of paper with trembling hands, and then raised them up to the overhead lamp.

Under the light shining through the back of the paper, there is a monitoring value related to the survival of the entire universe, and a value related to the repair of a certain omega's broken heart chakra.

The perfect overlap.
