[I think microscopic experiments may not be enough. I want to try to inject it into a living organism and see what results I get.]
【……】
[I seem to have created a monster?]
[Within a few minutes after the injection, the mouse convulsed continuously until it died. Irregular bulges appeared on the surface of the corpse, like... a lot of blisters?]
[Perhaps I can't handle this kind of thing by myself. I should hand it over to others to study together. As long as my name appears on it, it will be a great honor.]
【I should be content. 】
【…】
[My assistant seemed to have helped me dispose of the body, but when I asked her about it, she said I remembered it wrong.]
[How could I remember it wrong? Could it be that the corpse on the case could move on its own and run away? I originally wanted to dissect the structure today, and now it's really helpful. ]
[Fortunately, there are enough mice, so I can try again. As for handing it in... I have to produce some results, otherwise my name will definitely be replaced by the team leader.]
【……..】
[I have tried different experimental subjects, and without exception, they always died within a few minutes after the injection, and tumors containing fluid grew inside their bodies.]
[The only exception so far is insects.]
[I have tried injecting the scarab beetles with related substances. Although it still caused death, there was no swelling tumor and the body was well preserved.]
[Are insects the final destination? But if you want to achieve great success, it is necessary to act on the human body. Is it limited to insects? I can't accept it. ]
[I need some larger mammals. I think... cats and dogs should be fine. There are enough of them. As long as they are tied up, there will be no danger.]
[I asked my assistant to do it. Although she was reluctant, she gave in if I paid her more.]
[Oh, you are so short-sighted. If you have achieved results, why do you still care about these small amounts of money? Stupid. ]
[…..]
[For some reason, among the experimental subjects brought back there was a half-dead Doberman.]
[I want to scold her, but I also think this is okay. Maybe the previous failure was because the test sample was too active? If it was on the verge of death, maybe there would be a different result?]
[Anyway, according to the speed of cell proliferation, no matter how much I use, it will be enough. I am curious, can it replicate and divide without energy?]
【…....】
[I knew it! I knew it!! The failure was only because the sample was too tenacious. As long as we use the dying sample, it will be able to exert its miraculous effect!]
[If this research succeeds, I will become a legend! It will no longer be an exaggeration to describe the death of a human being!]
【I will become famous all over the world!!】
[I have an idea for the next experimental direction. As long as the test specimen is near death...]
[Sorry, sacrifice yourself for science. ]
[Something seems to be wrong, but I don’t know. It was successful before. Is there a requirement for the variety?]
[How is that possible? It has no consciousness, so how could it be picky about the samples? This is too unbelievable, right? What about the Doberman? I have to find out the reason from it.]
[The assistant actually released it, so there must be something wrong with her brain. I really don’t understand how she got in. Did she ignore all her principles because she loves animals?]
[I want to report it... No, she will definitely expose me first. I have to keep her calm and wait until I have results, then I will settle accounts with her together!]
【……】
[No… No, no, no!]
[This shouldn’t be the case. What went wrong? I’ve wasted a lot of time, and others are starting to get excited.
[I am making contributions to humanity, what does it mean to point fingers at me? Do you look down on me? Just because you have a high rank, you are great!]
[Almost... I need to think about it carefully. I need to think about it carefully. ]
【……】
[Why should I be obsessed with sarcoma? If the disease can be cured, it doesn't matter if I have some sarcoma, right?]
[Don't people like to work out? In fact, there is no difference between it and the knotty muscles, right? Aren't many people training for months just for those muscles? It's just right. ]
[Besides, these tumors are beautiful, full of fluid, and not very heavy, so just wear loose clothes. Compared to life, what is this?]
[No, why do I think they are beautiful?]
[What on earth am I…]
【… … .】
【Recently, there has been a lot of news about plague and insect pests. 】
[Strange, weren't there frequent locust plagues before? Why is it being reported everywhere this time? No news?]
[Wait for my research to come out, and then you'll have food to eat. After all, this kind of achievement is totally worth them reporting for days and nights.]
[Almost, really almost...]
【...】
[I heard that strange things appeared in some places, and everyone said they looked scary. ]
[What's the big deal? Don't we still have KanColle? It's ridiculous that they brought up a topic at a meeting that could be solved in a few seconds.]
[Don't delay my time with them! Look at those beautiful tumors, aren't they more attractive than you beasts?]
【No one has a clean heart.】
【…】
[I don’t know when this so-called “Ark” was prepared. I heard that it can last for many years by relying on energy cubes and combustion to generate electricity. It also has enough space.]
[But who can go up now?]
[The way they fight over it is really disgusting. They are still using the rank system. So humans are just humans. It's disgusting.]
【…etc.】
[Am I not also... a human? Who am I...?]
【… … .】
[Smart people, the continuation of human civilization depends on smart people. 】
[I am the smartest person here, so I am the only one qualified to enter the "Ark". It would be a waste of food for others to go there. It is better to just wait for death!]
[Those guys with toy guns also want to scare me? They are just BB bullets after shooting for so long. They are dead in two shots. They are not a threat at all.]
[But it may not be enough for me alone. I need to bring a few people with me. Otherwise, how can we continue the flame of human civilization?]
[Well, let’s capture more people and bring that assistant with us. I hope she can understand what’s best for her, otherwise…]
【……..】
[I seem to be in trouble. She is right. Everything is because of me.]
[Why do I feel like I did nothing wrong? Strange... Until now, I still don't feel the slightest bit of guilt. I just think it was a small mistake, but looking at the situation outside, it seems like... a lot of humans have died.]
[…I can make up for it. I can do it. As long as humans exist, there will be hope, right?]
[Just to continue the fire, have children soon, for the sake of all mankind, reproduce!]
【...】
Why isn't there anyone pregnant?
[…Is there something wrong with me…? Why the hell, there’s not even a doctor here? I should have called some doctors earlier. What a waste!]
【…】
[She just cries all day long. It's disgusting. She looks worse than those monsters. ]
[If those monsters were prettier, they would be more pleasing to the eye than these women. If they could go one step further... that's not right.]
[If I raise them into humans... what am I thinking? ]
【…】
[According to observations on land, if it merges with humans, it will form a form with human appearance, which fully proves the feasibility of my conjecture. ]
[The continuation of humanity, after all, is not the continuation of human thought? As long as the thought remains unchanged, then it doesn’t matter, right?]
[I need to find someone to do an experiment with first, let’s start with… you. ]
【……】
[Yes, yes! It has really changed! Or should I use "she" to describe it. ]
[Perfect, really perfect! She really became a human being!]
[Although her intelligence is very low and she is still a failure, this represents the possibility of domestication. If I give her human education and a human lifestyle, and let her think of herself as a human, then I can undo the past!]
[It’s just that the number of real humans is very small, so I don’t have much chance... No, I can cultivate it. As long as I fuse it with human cells, I can use it sparingly, and it will definitely be enough!]
【…】
[I succeeded. Although no one can talk to me anymore, I succeeded.]
[I created a complete egg-laying system, and I got an adult who is as pure as a newborn baby and can quickly start working.]
[With just a little more improvement, I can rebuild human society and turn this place into a new little world.]
【By then, I will still be that great person, the greatest person!】
【…...】
[How could it be used up so quickly? Am I wrong?]
[No, that's not right... I was too wasteful. I should have divided the process into two stages, allowing human cells to fuse with it, and then using the result as food for the newborn. This way, there would be enough raw materials.]
[But now there is no human who can...]
[Me, and me, my life is on track. As long as I set up the program, AI will analyze and control it for me. I just need to devote myself to all mankind.]
[For all mankind, yes, for all mankind!]
[My name is Chen Xi, I am the greatest scientist in the world, no doubt about it…]
【……..】
"So... the body in the middle is this Chen Xi?"
Su Xin glanced at the corpse whose male characteristics had been completely consumed, then turned her head to look at the Hunter, "The one you're looking for... is probably the 'assistant', right?"
"Well, it seems he has been dead for a long time."
After saying this, it was unclear whether the [Hunter] felt relieved or was feeling something else, he just remained silent with a cold face.
The Purifier looked around and saw bodies created by fusing Chen Xi's cells with monsters. They would be further broken down into several pieces and put into ovaries somewhere to produce newborns continuously.
Su Xin frowned. Although the matter was clear, she still couldn't find any information about Helena's situation, so she had no way to analyze whether the other party was affected.
"...Let's go." She breathed a sigh of relief, her heart in turmoil.
The Purifier blinked. "Are we going home? What about this place? Are we going to destroy it?"
"...Forget it. Can you modify the AI's logic? Change back the distorted content?"
"Hehe~ It's nothing, wait and see..."
[Helena] had been looking worried from a while ago. Now that she had calmed down, she was even more hesitant. She frowned and asked softly, "...Sister?"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Su Xin turned her head to look over.
"...If we go back, then this body...?"
"Ah, please burn it, Hunter. It won't come back anyway, so there's no point in keeping it.
"No!" Helena's eyes widened. "This is my sister's body. I won't allow anyone to destroy it. I can put it away and preserve it well!"
Su Xin felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. She felt that this behavior was a bit weird. Who would collect a corpse? It wasn't a large-sized figurine, especially since the corpse was her own. That was even weirder.
However, she also understood that now was not the time to argue, so she did not refute immediately, but looked at the Purifier who was typing on the keyboard.
"Are you ready? Master Purifier?"
"Oh, it's almost there. Let me adjust the hatching speed and unlock all the blocked information...Okay, the file has been sent. The AI will handle the rest. Let's go home!"
Su Xin smiled. Between going back to the inn to take a look and leaving immediately, she chose the latter and asked Helena to take the three of them out together.
After a slight dizziness, Su Xin stepped onto the rubbery ground for the first time, which she had only heard of from others, and looked up at the swarm of insects covering the sky.
