Chapter 535 The Stairway to the Ultimate Life Form!
good!
Reynolds just wanted to cheer loudly. The energy engine in the heart of the carrier roared at high speed, and a torrent of particles rushed through the pipeline.
And you still say you are not a forging hammer!?
This tough attitude is almost the same as that of a forging hammer.
Mikhail was stunned, feeling complicated.
Stay with me till the end?
He was afraid that he would find it difficult to say these four words until his death.
His thoughts were intertwined, and he sighed in his heart, it was his turn to appear.
"Qinglong, Lord Alvis didn't mean what you said." He said, "You misunderstood."
Reynolds looked over suddenly, with a disgusted look on his face, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, and in the end he said nothing.
Alves tried to force a smile, but couldn't.
What a familiar character, like looking in the mirror.
Tandin stared at Qinglong coldly and said, "I'll fight you to the end..." Not everyone is qualified to say these four words.
But Qinglong... really exists.
They couldn't find the Qinglong base, and the other party could advance and retreat freely.
Some even said that at worst, the worst that could happen was to just throw the news of the body away and disappear.
"Well, since you are so curious, I can actually tell you what Reynolds and I do together," Mikhail continued.
Qinglong's willingness to stick with him to the end is just a tough attitude, but he certainly won't really fall out with him.
The two sides are just playing a game. The game has reached this level. The disadvantage has been reversed. It is time to talk about how to solve the problem specifically.
Reynolds's face changed slightly when he heard Mikhail's words. He glanced at Qinglong and found that the other party had no reaction. He could only suppress his emotions.
Mikhail is really smart.
Li Ming couldn't help but sigh, and then said: "However, we don't have to participate in research work on a regular basis, but if we want to learn something, we must not let anyone stop us."
He wanted to take this opportunity to gain access to the progress of the corpse research, so that he wouldn't be kept in the dark until the ultimate life form was born.
Mikhail nodded involuntarily. This was equivalent to an exchange of intelligence, although this path of flesh and blood evolution meant nothing to them.
But at the moment, it obviously cannot end easily without paying something, so every bit counts.
"It depends on what you are doing." Alves did not agree directly.
Mikhail did not insist on the other party's promise. At the moment, playing word games would be meaningless and would only be embarrassing.
"We are recreating the evolutionary path of the Holy Spirit civilization, the path of mechanical evolution," Mikhail said in a deep voice. After a moment's thought, he added, "That's what the Protoss called their little secret."
This is really the road. Alves's face froze slightly, and Rafael's heart was shocked.
"It can also lead to the Ultimate Life Form." Reynolds added, "This is so important, okay? Don't deny it."
Tandin's face changed. These guys were hiding really well.
If it weren't for today's test, they wouldn't be sure.
Alves immediately asked, "How is the research going? Do you need our help?"
"No need." Mikhail said indifferently, "This token of allegiance should be enough."
Alves hesitated. Combining a lot of information, they already had some speculation, but speculation and certainty are different.
The evolutionary path of the Holy Spirit Civilization can also lead to the ultimate life form, which is equally important.
He now even wants to tear up the agreement and take action directly.
But considering Qinglong... and their current progress, there is no benefit in doing so.
"It's really shocking." Alves sighed. "Let's go and see the body."
The agreement was reached, but they were not even allowed to see the corpse just now.
They have exposed each other's weaknesses and are wary of each other, so it is difficult to say who has gained or lost.
The Empire and the Federation were somewhat relieved.
After Reynolds and Mikhail return, the first thing they will do is relocate the two bases.
The Godcrafter Laboratory also needs to be moved.
Everyone moved forward along the way, but each had their own thoughts in their hearts.
After passing through several metal corridors and undergoing numerous tests, we arrived at an extremely spacious and open experimental area.
In the center, lying was the huge corpse of the Overlord-class Titan, covered with all kinds of sophisticated instruments.
A large number of giant robotic arms hung down from all sides, and the giant laser cutters installed on them continuously released blue and white analytical beams from their tips.
A giant scanner is installed above, with the red grating scanning hundreds of thousands of times per second, and the scanning data is projected onto the curved screen in real time.
A large number of staff members in white lab coats came and went in a hurry. They were at a high level of evolution, moved extremely fast and were very efficient.
Although they are constantly communicating with each other, they do not form resonant low-frequency noise, and various auxiliary measures are well arranged.
Although there were many instruments installed on it and sparks were constantly flying from all over the body, the only area that actually caused damage was a small area on the right arm.
They seemed to be using the previously incised wound as a starting point for their research.
“…This corpse is too hard. It hardly responds to any external energy, and its cell structure is even more special…” Raphael pulled out a virtual screen.
"Is this a cell structure?" Mikhail took a look and was stunned.
Li Ming also looked over and his expression froze.
Raphael smiled bitterly. "Each cell of this corpse is composed of a whopping 129,600 honeycomb structures. We speculate that the power it can unleash, in its living state, is no less than that of a regular planet."
Every cell is almost equivalent to an S-level life form?
Li Ming was shocked. The ultimate life form was so perverted?
After becoming an X-level life form, even with the amplification of controlled objects, can I really fight against this kind of creature?
But then he thought again, no... this Titan is definitely not an ordinary ultimate life form, and using him as a comparison is too hurtful.
Next, Raphael showed them a lot of information.
This time, the cooperation between the Empire and the Federation is not just talk, many core research secrets have been brought out.
"...Based on the degree of evolution of life forms, the Ultimate Path definitely shouldn't involve piling up various gene seeds or other abilities within the body..." Mikhail frowned as he looked at a document titled "Differentiation Report on the Ultimate Path." "The Ultimate Path is truly wrong."
He wasn't that surprised, as he had heard some rumors more or less.
"Your Excellency Natandin..."
Tandin didn't care: "The path of evolution is built by the accumulation of countless life forms."
"...the idea of repairing the underlying gene seed..." Reynolds flipped through another report and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Interesting! This guy actually proposed repairing the underlying gene seed."
Mikhail came closer, quite curious.
"...As the genetic evolutionary levels become stronger, the underlying gene seeds have become a burden. If they can be repaired and enhanced in some way..."
Li Ming took a quick look and felt a sense of surprise. This was the right path.
He took a closer look and found that the report came from within the Federation, and after trying for a long time, he had not found any way to fix it.
“…Source essence…” Li Ming couldn’t help but think that the Empire and the Federation had actually already conducted research to a very advanced level, and they were only missing that last tiny bit.
Reynolds and Mikhail flipped through the pages eagerly. Although these belonged to the path of genetic evolution, they could draw inferences from one instance to another and perhaps it would inspire them.
"If you three have any ideas, please feel free to bring them up." Alves had almost calmed down and put on his signature smile again.
"Hmm..." Reynolds muttered, not knowing what he was saying.
Li Ming learned a little about their progress in corpse research and found no breakthroughs.
They are even trying to combine the extracted cells with other organisms to find a breakthrough, which is a very old experimental method.
The carrier's latency is too high, so they cannot participate in substantive research and mainly look at the data.
Alves was quite generous and didn't say anything. He even asked someone to find them a room so they could take their time to look around.
"...Holy Spirit..." Alves murmured softly as he watched the three of them leave, "...We really guessed it right..."
"It's not that simple." Tandin shook his head. "Even if we created something from scratch and they are just tracing back, the research capabilities of the two are incomparable."
"I hope so." Alves shook his head. The figure of Qinglong appeared faintly in front of him. Reynolds and Mikhail were not a concern.
But Qinglong is completely different.
…
Almost at the same time, in a laboratory somewhere in a desolate universe.
The ground and walls were covered in scarlet blood, wriggling flesh.
On the right side, a thick broken arm was wrapped in a large amount of flesh and blood in the center, like a greedy tentacle, tightly wrapped, constantly tightening and entwining.
It was the severed arm of the master, and the most eye-catching thing was the index finger among its five fingers.
It was actually cut off, and the cut was rough.
In the central area, Levenbeck stared at the object in front of him with blazing eyes. It was a mass of black flesh and blood, covered with scarlet blood vessels. It resembled a uterus and was beating slowly like a heart.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Every beat stirred up substantial energy ripples.
"Please...please..." Levenback murmured in a low voice.
Beside him, the Virgin Mary and the Prophet were suspended in mid-air, their brows furrowed, and their eyes, which occasionally glanced at the ground, contained real disgust.
"Levenbaker..." The Virgin Mary finally couldn't help but was stopped by Levenbaker, "Don't talk, don't talk... This is the most critical moment..."
The Virgin Mary had a cold expression on her face and was about to speak, but was stopped by the prophet, who shook his head.
Compared to the Empire and the Federation, which have abundant talents, on their side, only Levenbeck can serve as a senior researcher, and everyone else can only assist.
Suddenly, the two of them felt a slight movement in their hearts, and looked at the black goat egg in front of them at the same time.
The steady beating of a heart gradually turned into a rapid tremor.
The surface of the black flesh, which was covered with mottled blood, suddenly cracked into a narrow, irregular diamond-shaped crack. The flesh inside was layered and rolled around, wrapped in crystal mucus.
The Black Goat's Egg trembled more and more violently, and some object vaguely emerged from the rolling flesh and blood.
There was a "click" sound, and a curled-up figure fell and hit the bloody floor, causing a wriggling movement.
The figure was silent and lifeless, like a newborn baby.
Levenbeck looked nervous, clenched his fists, and even stopped breathing.
"call…"
With a trembling breath, the curled-up figure on the ground suddenly trembled, and its limbs slowly stretched out.
It was not a baby, but an adult. His eyes were a little confused. He seemed to want to stand up, but the slime on the ground made it impossible for him to use his strength. His face gradually became frightened and uneasy.
"Ha...haha...haha..." Levenback grinned, "It really is worthy of being the Black Goat's Egg. Awesome, so awesome..."
"Ryan?"
The Virgin Mary and the Prophet looked at the man in astonishment.
Although the hair was caught in the mucus, it was still clear that the other person looked exactly like Ryan.
"You spent all this time just to clone Ryan?" The Virgin Mary asked with a grim expression, "What's the point? You even wasted a finger."
"You don't understand. This Ryan is different." Levenback said excitedly, his tone rapid. "He... he was infected by the Azure Dragon virus. His cellular potential has been effectively wiped out."
"Ryan was infected by the Azure Dragon virus?" The Virgin Mary frowned. "When did this happen? Wasn't Ryan taken away by the Empire?"
"That's not important." Levenback shook his head, looking at "Ryan" with a burning gaze. "I don't know how Qinglong did it, but this gives me a perfect material. Ryan has become an empty bottle."
"And it's not just a simple empty bottle, it's an incomparably perfect empty bottle. The shell is wrapped in Titan blood. Therefore, under the influence of the Black Goat Egg and alchemical substances, it can merge with the finger and revive."
Levenbeck was almost insane: "This is a joint work of me, Qinglong, and the Black Goat Egg. It is unique!"
The Reverend Mother frowned, "So, what's the point?"
"Meaning?" Levenbeck's laughter stopped abruptly. Under Clone Ryan's horrified gaze, he broke his skin, drew a drop of blood, put it in his mouth and tasted it, his smile becoming even more fervent. "Development potential, level 100..."
"Level 100?"
The Virgin Mary trembled and the prophet's face changed drastically.
"Not only that..." Levenbeck licked his lips and said:
"I can feel that there is a special substance in his body, an extremely special substance, a special substance created by combining this empty bottle, that finger, and my alchemical substance..."
Having said that, Levenbeck suddenly looked up, and his eyes, looking at the black flesh, contained endless confusion. "The Black Goat Egg is truly a treasure."
"Where on earth did you get it from? For so long, you've only used it as a breeding ground for garbage and waste."
The Virgin Mary frowned, automatically ignoring Levenbeck's question and getting straight to the point: "What exactly is the use of that special substance?"
Levenback took a deep breath. "If my guess is correct, it should be the ladder to the ultimate life form."
