Chapter 339 Useful
The subject thought for two seconds and replied, "Not bad, much better than before."
Luo Li nodded, "Did you feel any discomfort after taking the pill?"
The subject immediately shook his head, "No, very...comfortable."
He thought for a moment and offered an explanation, "Perhaps it's because the elixir my benefactor gave me is very mild. I feel like it restored the areas where my experiment failed..."
He thought hard but couldn't come up with anything to say. He just looked at Luo Li and said, "Anyway, benefactor, I now feel that I am not much different from the successful experimental subject."
Luo Li was stunned when she heard this. A healing pill could have this effect? That couldn't be right.
Sure enough, the next second the subject continued, "But I can feel that this is only temporary. The pill only temporarily pieced together my shattered body."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes and said, "I'll look for other ways."
The experimental subject was stunned when he heard this, and looked up at Luo Li with a complicated look, "Benefactor, we are actually just semi-finished products of a failed experiment. We have no value in existence or utilization. Why do you..."
Luo Li frowned when she heard this, "You don't want to live?"
The experimental subject immediately shook his head and said, "Of course I do!"
Luo Li raised an eyebrow. "That's it. If you want to live, just listen to me. I have my own reasons."
The subject lowered his head slightly, "Yes."
Luo Li looked at him, "By the way, what's your name?"
The experimental subject was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then replied, "Your Excellency can call me Lingtongque or Zhang Zimu."
Luo Li frowned, "You are now..."
The experimental subject pursed his lips and said, "Now I have merged with him. He is me and I am him."
Luo Li asked back, "Two souls in one body?"
Ling Tongque, also known as Zhang Zimu, shook his head, "Not such a benefactor."
"Oh?" Luo Li raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean?"
Zhang Zimu explained, "My benefactor, you may not know that the experimental subject is not simply two bodies fused into one, but has two souls within him."
Luo Li looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
Zhang Zimu continued, "The forbidden experiment is actually to completely fuse a magical beast with a human. The so-called complete fusion refers not only to the body, but also to the soul."
"Those so-called successful experimental subjects they have are actually just failures that appear to be somewhat successful."
The doubt in Luo Li's eyes dissipated a little, and she asked, "Could it be that they are the same as the orcs left over from the combination of super beasts and humans?"
Zhang Zimu shook his head and nodded, "Somewhat similar, but not exactly the same."
"Orcs are a combination of top-tier super-divine beasts and humans. Their existence is permitted by the laws of heaven and earth, so they are gifted and can use both elemental and spiritual powers before the God King. Their minds are no different from those of ordinary people, and their bestiality won't rob them of their humanity."
Luo Li nodded in agreement. The two orcs she had met so far, Yuechu and Yueying, were both gifted and strong-willed. Even before their magical beast bloodlines were activated, their talents were still very superior.
Zhang Zimu sighed and continued, "The experimental subject is a normal human being forcibly fused with a demonic beast that has nothing to do with him. This is the result of humans coveting the powerful bloodline of the orcs, a sinister desire that is not permitted by the laws of heaven and earth."
"So you see..." Zhang Zimu gestured for Luo Li to look at the seemingly successful experimental subjects and sighed, "This is already the pinnacle of what Tianyuan Continent can achieve."
Luo Li frowned, a hint of doubt flashed across her eyes, "Why do you know so much?"
Zhang Zimu shook his head upon hearing this and said self-deprecatingly, "I once had some understanding of forbidden experiments, which allowed me to find some loopholes in their experiments and retain my sanity."
He sighed, "That ancient book is still at my home. I didn't have time to take it with me."
After all, who would go out to participate in a competition and bring rare ancient books with them? He hid them at home and planned to take them with him when he went to Longxi City.
Unexpectedly, the royal guards said that they had to go directly to Longxi City, and after a few days, if they passed the guard assessment, they would be allowed to come back to pack up and live in the Beiming Palace.
He thought it would only take a few days, so he just followed them. Who could have imagined that he would get himself involved!
Luo Li sat cross-legged on the grass and thought, maybe if there was time, she could send someone to Zhang Zimu's house to bring back the ancient book for study.
He raised his eyes and asked, "Excuse me, how did you get captured by the Tianyu Palace?"
Speaking of this, Zhang Zimu became a little upset. He said angrily,
"It's those bastards from the Tianyu Palace! They're holding tournaments in our small and medium-sized cities in the name of the Beiming royal family, saying that anyone who places in the top 30 will have the opportunity to go to Longxi City and join the royal guard."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and slapped himself in the face, which scared Luo Li.
The next second, Luo Li saw him regretfully saying, "Tell me why I was so vain back then! Why did I go on stage and even take first place? I'm so impressed!"
Luo Li laughed awkwardly, "So that's how it is..."
She straightened her expression and continued, "In Beiming, was this the method used by Tianyu Palace to trick you into entering Beiming Royal Palace?"
Zhang Zimu nodded. "That's right. When I was being transported back to Longxi City, everyone I met on the road was deceived by this kind of rhetoric."
Accompanied by the Royal Guards of Dragon Breath City, they had no idea that this was a trap set by the Palace of Heavenly Mandate to capture the experimental subjects.
Luo Li narrowed her eyes and rubbed her thumb. Since in Beiming, the Tianyu Palace was openly selecting under the name of the Beiming Royal Family and secretly searching for experimental subjects, then what was the name used in the Roto Empire...
It would be difficult to establish so many strongholds without the participation of large local forces.
Could it be that the Roth Empire has also secretly surrendered to the Tianyu Palace?
There is also Longyue. Although the number of strongholds within Longyue’s borders is not as many as the two empires mentioned above, it still has quite a few strongholds compared to the Caesar Empire, which has a small number of strongholds.
Thinking of the blueprints placed in the space ring, Luo Li suddenly raised her eyes and took out a few bottles of pills and handed them to Zhang Zimu. "You know a lot about taboo experiments. These pills are for you. See if the other test subjects can regain their consciousness after taking them."
Zhang Zimu was touched, "My benefactor! You actually trust me so much!"
Luo Li raised her hand, but before she could say anything, she saw the man raise his hand and swear an oath, "I, Zhang Zimu/Spirit Eyed Bird, swear hereby that if I ever dare to betray my benefactor Luo Li, I will die without a burial place and fall into the endless hell forever!"
Luo Li blinked and watched the light of the rules of heaven and earth fall on him.
She touched her head and thought, okay, it seems that he doesn't know that he is invincible in the Chaos Jade. She can sense it even if he has any ill intentions.
Although this person is impatient, he is actually a nice person.
