The fierce battle lasted for nearly an hour.

As the monsters near the corpse of the old god's creation were almost cleared, an old man with a beard came to the island under the escort of a team of soldiers.

"How is the sample collection going?" The old man turned and asked the middle-aged woman next to him.

The middle-aged woman pushed up her frameless glasses and said softly, "The collection has been completed. The analysis data shows that it does have the genetic components of the anti-radiation agent."

"The genetic school may have a similar monster on its hands."

Although the anti-radiation drugs are manufactured and circulated by the chaebols, the top management of the academy has always been clear that the chaebol group is just a secular processing plant. The real core ingredients still come from the academy's genetic school. They provide a certain amount of special materials to the chaebols every year, and then let the chaebols re-prepare the anti-radiation drugs.

The power of the genetic school is too great.

Even in the civil war within the academy, the bionics school gained the upper hand, but still could not suppress the other party. At most, it was only temporarily ahead. After all, some people from the genetics school also opposed the abuse of super soldiers to modify their genes.

If the genetic school were allowed to create super mutants and synths, its power would be terrifying.

"A creation of the old gods?"

"When did this monster appear?" The old man took a look at the analysis data and muttered, "Its body contains the genes of more than ten animals and plants on Earth. It's like God is playing a joke on us."

"It's a horrible synthetic monstrosity."

At this point, the middle-aged woman next to him couldn't help but hesitate and asked, "Doctor? Is it true that there are gods in this world?"

"Ridiculous!" The old man sneered and shook his head, saying, "So-called gods may sometimes just be some unknown powerful creatures that we don't know about."

“For the ancients.”

"We can now use tools to fly and communicate, we can go to the moon, and we can use nuclear energy. In their eyes, are we not gods?"

"We are nothing more than ancient people compared to the old gods who created this monster."

"Although it is an unknown creature that we do not understand, as long as we study more knowledge, we can always figure out what it is."

The middle-aged woman looked like she was being taught a lesson, but she couldn't help but ask, "What about the Mechanic Atomic God Cult?"

“They have grown tremendously over the years.”

Hearing the other party's words, the old man hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "Spirit of the Universe?"

"If the spirit of the universe really exists."

"Then He is what we call God, but this God does not care about the tiny earth, let alone the tiny human beings on earth."

"In Eastern terms, He can be called the Tao."

The middle-aged woman looked as if she understood but not quite.

The old man was too lazy to explain. He put on his protective suit and walked towards the old god's creation. The closer he got, the more shocked he looked. He murmured, "Incredible! What kind of biotechnology could create such a monster?"

"Have you collected the radiation contamination index?"

A researcher wearing protective clothing nearby said, "It has been collected."

"The radiation contamination index of ordinary aberrations is 150%-300%!"

"The radiation level is much higher than the ghouls outside."

"The radiation contamination index of this monster is 300%-500%. Its body has suffered a direct nuclear explosion, and the contamination index has reached about 600%."

There is no upper limit on the radiation pollution index.

Theoretically, 20% is a warning line. If it exceeds this value, it will affect the health of the body. Over time, the body will suffer from radiation distortion. If it reaches 50%, it will threaten life and will die in a short time if it is not treated. Above 80% is a mutation zone. Many ghouls are born at this limit. If it exceeds 100%, it may turn into a crazy ghoul or a living ghoul.

A radiation pollution index of 150% is the critical point of abnormality, and some special beings can directly mutate into super abnormalities.

These monsters on the island are all temporary mutations.

If time goes on, some super-deformed monsters might really be born, but now their degree of mutation is not high. The arrival of the academy's bionics school has cut off the source of the pollution in time.

"Find a way to transport it back." The old man looked at the huge corpse of the old god's creation and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Find a way to bring part of it back."

“The others were cremated on site.”

The intense work lasted for a whole day.

After dark, the old man boarded the airship directly and then changed to a plane to go to the branch base of the academy's bionics school.

"The one who killed the old gods' creation."

"Keep an eye on it."

"Find a way to win him over." The old man gave instructions before walking into the meeting room with a pile of documents.

A person next to him nodded and said, "Yes."

Meeting room.

The entire conference room was completely empty, but there were a lot of tables and chairs. The old man walked in and said, "Gaia. Let's start the meeting."

"Okay, Doctor." A female electronic voice sounded.

In a moment.

Human-shaped projections appeared on many seats in the conference room. Most of them were old men, and there were not many middle-aged people.

The old man walked to the top of the conference room, nodded to a middle-aged man in a white coat next to him and said, "Dr. A."

"Let the meeting begin."

Doctor A next to him was a blond man. He glanced at the projections of the others and said slowly, "Before the meeting begins, I want to show you some things that were secretly photographed by satellites recently."

After saying that, he snapped his fingers towards the sky.

In an instant.

A huge steel city appeared in everyone's eyes. In the center of this steel city, there was a flagpole, hundreds of meters high. On it was flying a bright red flag with a golden five-pointed star printed on it.

"Beidou?!"

"Are they completely finished?"

For a moment, the entire conference room was filled with discussions.

Dr. A's expression was quite solemn, and he said slowly: "As you can see, this is the rebuilt industrial city in Asia - Beidou."

The scene changed.

Roads that extend in all directions appeared before our eyes. Thousands of heavy trucks were transporting large amounts of resources into this industrial city. Everywhere were extremely busy people, just like countless worker bees, each doing their own job and gradually improving this huge industrial city. Construction scenes could be seen everywhere. Satellite images flew by quickly, and one could see with the naked eye that steel buildings were being rebuilt.

"Their heavy industry has fully recovered."

Dr. A's expression was a little gloomy, and he said slowly: "Although Gaia was unable to invade their database due to the interference of Nuwa and Tianhe, we also captured a lot of things."

The scene changed again.

What appeared before everyone's eyes was a heavy armored cluster that stretched for more than ten kilometers. Super-large modified exoskeleton power armors that were seven or eight meters high were slowly advancing. Behind dozens of super-large exoskeleton power armors were hundreds of armored personnel carriers. In the exposed pictures, neat teams of soldiers were standing with guns, like human-shaped statues cast in steel. Silver-white metal modified prosthetics holding heavy firepower weapons quickly formed a formation after approaching the destination, first with a round of intensive firepower coverage, and then steadily advancing towards the city that had turned into ruins not far away.

An extremely brutal battle broke out instantly.

A large number of zombies appeared in everyone's sight. They seemed to be awakened by something and surged over like a black tide. There were dozens of super deformed ones visible to the naked eye.

"During the Old World period, their population reached 1.5 billion."

“Nearly five times as much as us.”

Dr. A said with a heavy expression, "After the catastrophe, at least over 100 million ghouls were born on their land."

"Whether it's the difficulty of reconstruction or the threats we face."

"They are all several times our size."

"But now they have rebuilt a super industrial city, while we have been hiding in an underground research institute for hundreds of years."

“Even if we are slightly ahead in technology, so what?”

"A civil war directly damaged our vitality."

The scene changed again.

It was another fully armed and heavily armored group. They seemed to be located in the coastal area. Not far away, they could see a city that was once extremely prosperous but had now completely turned into ruins.

The battle broke out again.

The scene changed again, showing a new place. A heavy armored group with different flags advanced again. It seemed that this place was already a large city in the inland.

"Beidou has armed three heavy armored clusters in just half a year."

"We are dividing our forces into three groups to recover the lost territory."

Dr. A tapped his finger lightly, and the screen immediately changed to the interior of Beidou. Thousands of ordinary people appeared before their eyes. Everyone in the conference room soon noticed these ordinary people. Almost half of their bodies had been transformed into mechanical forms. Unlike some simple mechanical prosthetics modified here, most of the people could be said to be semi-mechanical life forms.

"Did you find it?"

"Their bionics are more than ten times more popular than ours!" Dr. A said in a low voice, "The Pacific Convention back then."

“We should have shared genetic technology with each other.”

"But due to the obstruction of the Genetics School, we only agreed to provide them with finished anti-radiation drugs. The core ingredients have always been controlled by the Genetics School."

"It really curbed their development in a short period of time and slowed their population growth significantly."

"But what was the result?"

"Under the pressure of survival, they completely abandoned genetic technology and used the whole country's strength to conquer bionic technology."

"As you can see."

"There are millions of cyborgs like this in the entire Beidou. Their work efficiency is far superior to that of ordinary people. With just a little modification, they can all be the most elite cyborg warriors. While we are still studying how to make cyborgs have normal human nerve reactions, they have already developed the application of mechanical modification to a level far beyond ours. While we are still figuring out how to replace human skin and flesh with synthetic materials, they have already completed the popularization of cyborg modification."

"The genetics school has strangled them, blocking the source of their anti-radiation drugs, but this has also forced them to fight a desperate battle."

"Everyone."

“We’re already so far behind!”

The entire conference room was dead silent.

Many people looked at each other in bewilderment. One of the scholars, a middle-aged woman, stood up and said, "At least we are still far ahead in high-end humanoid bionic technology."

"What's the use of that?" Dr. A looked at her and said in a deep voice, "Industrial system."

“Resource rationing.”

"According to their current progress, it won't be long before they can retake the entire country. By then, with their established industrial system, they will soon be able to obtain resources far superior to ours."

"Do you really think they haven't researched advanced humanoid bionic technology?"

“This person.”

"Codename Yaoli, a high-level bionic man, Beidou's top assassin."

"Can you tell he's a android?"

A young man who looked very ordinary appeared in the screen. His appearance was almost featureless and his expression was a bit dull. The picture changed again, and his figure appeared in a ruin, next to him was the corpse of a super deformed monster. At this time, his eyes were cold and he was wiping the blade in his hand.

"fight."

"He once killed a super aberration in close combat. Do you know what that means?"

"How many of us do you think can do it?"

Dr. A shook his head and said, "It's not that they don't have the ability to transform advanced androids. It's just that they lack resources and can only equip a small number of elite troops first."

"Wait until they retake Asia."

"With the vast resources of Asia and Beidou's industrial system, how long do you think it will take them to rebuild their civilization?"

Everyone present looked at each other in surprise.

"Then what should we do? Negotiate with the Genetics School?" At this time, a man stood up and whispered, "We have completely fallen out with them."

“The possibility of peace talks is extremely low.”

Dr. A raised his head, a hint of fanaticism appeared in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "The facts prove it."

“We are on the right path.”

"Only the Bionics School can put an end to the apocalyptic wasteland and return the entire human race to a civilized society."

"We shouldn't hide in the underground research institute any longer."

"The Academy has always hoped to wait until we have mature enough technology to save the wasteland, but how can we defeat it if we don't face everything in the wasteland?"

“The college should be in the eyes of the world.”

"We need a large number of bionic people and synthetic people. We have the most advanced mechanical transformation technology. Why do we still keep them in the laboratory?"

"Beidou is already one step ahead."

"But it's not too late for us to act now. As long as we work together, we can build an army and retake those metropolises in half a year at most."

The old man next to him was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked: "What about the genetic school?"

"Cooperate with Beidou and share some technologies." A cold light flashed in Dr. A's eyes, and he said coldly: "They are also the evolutionary route of the bionics school, and they will support us!"

"Flesh and blood are weak."

"It's time for humanity to have its second evolution!"
