"Under immense pressure, researchers are becoming more and more radical and crazy.
“The experiments became more and more cruel, and the number of deaths increased.
"But it's like I'm cursed. No matter what, I can't take that crucial step.
"Just when everyone was tortured to the point of collapse and at a loss of what to do, a turning point came.
"One day, a researcher, after experiencing yet another failure, completely collapsed and ran away from the base. He wandered in the mountains but got lost.
"A ferocious beast took advantage of him and dragged him into the cave while biting him.
“Before this person was bitten and completely passed out, he seemed to see a person with wings floating in.
"Later he found out that it wasn't a human, but the Zerg Queen.
“It looks somewhat similar to humans, but its entire body is pure white, even its wings and claws are white.
"When the Queen Insect tilted her head and looked at him, her eyes were clear and innocent, like a holy angel.
“The Queen of Insects saved him, and it seemed she also developed some interest in him, a wingless species.
"So during the few days he was recuperating in the cave, the Queen of Insects went to see him almost every day, or rather, to observe him.
"On the first day, I brought him a piece of rotten meat, which male insects love to eat. He couldn't help but vomit when he smelled it, and he didn't move at all.
"The Queen Insect seemed to have realized something, and she brought some raw meat the second time.
"After seeing him struggling to pick up stones and sticks to make a fire and roast meat, he brought something that could start a fire the third time.
"After two more times, the Queen of Insects was able to imitate his pronunciation and say a few simple syllables.
"That person was surprised to discover that this insect queen possessed advanced intelligence that was completely comparable to that of humans, and also possessed physical strength that humans could only admire.
"Most importantly, he possesses a powerful consciousness that they have always longed for.
"Because he had witnessed with his own eyes how the queen insect summoned and ordered the male insects to do things from a distance.
"In short, she embodies every powerful quality a human being could desire.
“And all of these could be reasons for her being entrapped.
"So, after careful planning, humans successfully trapped her."
The voice paused for a moment before continuing, “And all the torture she endured afterwards could become grounds for resentment in the future.
"Three years later, when the first reagent was finally successfully developed, that researcher volunteered to be the first experimental subject.
"He slept for three whole days and nights. After waking up, he unexpectedly awakened his soul power."
Perhaps because it was slowly dissipating, Ren Danchen's voice sounded a little weak.
He sighed softly and said, "Yes, I am that researcher, and also the first person to awaken his soul power."
“Actually, I didn’t think I would wake up.
"I just felt really bad during those three years, and I didn't know whether what I did was right or wrong.
"Ayi was so innocent, and the torture she endured was so cruel, so cruel that I couldn't bear to watch it.
“She tried her best to summon the male insect to save her again and again.
"But humans repeatedly set up ambushes and captured those insects that came to die for research and experimentation.
“Later, she stopped calling, as if she had accepted her fate.
"Compared to her, humans are like that demon with a big mouth, cold-blooded, cruel, and greedy.
"However, in the face of survival, all crusades are pale and powerless.
"Sympathy and pity are ridiculous and useless emotions.
"I really couldn't bear to watch it at the time, and thought, let it just end, it would be a relief.
“But unexpectedly, I survived.
"He also successfully crossed the boundary of consciousness and awakened his soul power.
"I went several times to the cell where she was imprisoned, thinking of taking a look at her or saying a few words to her.
"But I didn't dare to do anything, not even the courage to look her in the eye.
"Later, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I left the base and went out to keep myself busy."
“But no matter how busy I am, my heart always feels like there’s a string tied to it, connected to one end, and it hurts when it’s pulled.
“So, decades later, I came back.
"It turned out that she was still imprisoned there, with a large number of experimenters carrying various instruments coming in and out of the cage every day, seemingly without end.
"She was tied there, staring into space, with no light in her eyes.
“It’s so different from when we first met.
"That night, I drank strong alcohol for most of the night.
"Then, at the moment she completely lost consciousness, her hand, as if possessing its own consciousness, opened the mechanism that imprisoned her..."
Ren Danchen's voice paused.
Ye Feng waited for a while, but didn't hear any sound. He couldn't help but call out, "Senior Ren?"
After a while, Ren Danchen's voice was heard, but it sounded even weaker: "After waking up, I realized that I had caused a big disaster.
“She did escape, but she summoned almost all the Zerg, launching an almost crazy revenge on humans.
"The entire experimental base was destroyed. All those researchers died at her hands overnight. Their deaths were horrific."
Ye Feng was stunned.
"I can't help but wonder, did I really... do something wrong?"
"Is it really true that we can only go on like this, in black and white?"
The sound was like a whimper coming from the throat, so weak that it was almost like crying.
"She has killed so many innocent people that I can no longer justify her or myself.
“Those people who died in vain along the way seemed to be staring at me, condemning my stupidity and naiveté.
