Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

Their requirements were not high, and they did not intend to directly solve this thorny problem. As long as the clones could survive the ore disease outbreak, it was enough.

Even infected people can live for a long time with appropriate medical conditions. This is not a problem for Kane and Adams. As long as the experiment can be successful, they can just change their bodies when they can no longer survive.

However... things were far from going as smoothly as they imagined.

Many accidents occurred during the experiment. After ordinary clones received desensitization therapy directed at the Origin Stone, various changes occurred that were difficult to understand with common sense.

The Source Stone is the imprisoned devil. Modern industry released this devil from the cage. After in-depth research, they discovered that the Source Stone's impact on humans is far more than what it seems on the surface.

Recalling the experimental records he had read at that time, Kane felt deeply frightened even with his mind.

The alienation caused by those clones being deeply infected with ore disease... can they really be called human beings?

The mutated clones caused considerable damage to their laboratory, so Ball Pharmaceuticals spent huge sums of money to directly buy a mobile plot to build a campus in order to cover up the noise caused by the experiment.

For several years, their experiment had not made much progress. Even if all the assets in their names were added up, this kind of loss would be too much to bear.

When Kane wanted to give up and was about to find a suitable host, and then plant the seeds to slowly wear down the opponent's spiritual will, the addition of a person changed their situation of being neither good nor bad.

Ayin.

With the addition of this genius, the progress of their experiments has improved by leaps and bounds in a short period of time, and no serious experimental accidents have ever occurred. However, as a price, the experiment has always been firmly in the hands of Director A. Adams and Kane has no right to interfere.

In other words, even if they want to interfere, they don't know where to start. Even other staff in the laboratory don't understand the meaning of various practices, and Director A has no intention of explaining it to others.

After a period of weighing, they finally decided to let Supervisor A do it.

The final result was pretty good. They successfully obtained a clone that could survive normally in the external environment, but there was still a slight problem in the end.

For unknown reasons, these clones without exception have developed their own consciousness. It is speculated that this is probably due to the source stone, but it is impossible without contact with the source stone.

Supervisor A didn't have any good solution to this problem. He could only give a compromise plan. As long as a certain part of the brain was removed, the nascent consciousness could be completely erased.

The problem is that they intend to use this body for their own use. Who knows what the consequences of removing part of the brain will be.

In the end, Kane and Adams had no choice but to accept this reality.

Although the clones have their own consciousness, the bodies of the clones are much better than those randomly found. The individual qualities may not be that outstanding, but they definitely fit their souls.

For some special reasons that have not yet been thoroughly studied, planting seeds in the spiritual world of these clones is very easy, even a beginner like Kane can do it.

Unfortunately, the seeds of this kind of spell place a heavy burden on the caster. Most people can only plant one seed. Otherwise, wouldn't it be safer to plant several more seeds?It was under these circumstances that McGee was born.

No matter how powerful the Origin Stone technique is, it depends on the level of the user. Unfortunately, Kane's level is not very good.

Adams can roughly snatch other people's bodies, firstly because he is strong enough, and secondly because he is very talented. Only when he has mastered the principles of the spell can he improve the spell itself, while Kane can only follow the steps step by step. to do it.

Excluding the time spent on researching cloning technology, it took him almost 20 years to catalyze the seed into shape. If it were another person's body, he might not be able to catalyze the seed into shape in his lifetime.

McGee is Kane's last hope. Of course, he can also go to Director A to see if the almighty Ayin can do anything.

However, Kane would not have the slightest bit of trust in Director A's unusual existence.

When Adams was still alive, the equally crazy guy was able to hold down Director A. Now that Adams is dead and Director A has found a new backer, Kane doesn't feel that he has the ability to ask him to help.

"Damn Adams... Our plan will succeed if we wait for a while, why do we have to provoke that monster?"

Kane gritted his teeth with hatred when he thought of Adams' death.

But in the final analysis, for a being like Adams who can change his body at will, is he... really dead?

Chapter 75 Ayin’s plan

Of course dead.

Adams died very cleanly, not even ashes were left, Ayin was extremely sure of this.

Oh no, he did leave a large piece of soul crystal behind after his death, which is now stored in the headquarters of Bol Pharmaceuticals.

Ayin was also quite interested in that thing. He also mastered the method of reading the information inside. From time to time, he would go over and look through it, looking for the clues he needed from the huge and messy memory.

Because he wanted to study the impact of the clone's consciousness on the spiritual seeds, Adams also taught him the magic.

However, his talent is much worse than Kane's, and he can hardly even get started. He can read the memories stored in the soul crystal, but he still needs external power.

The answer is also very simple, it is the special substance he extracted from the clone's brain.

It is true that the brain is a very important organ of the human body, but even if the brain is lost, a person's body can still survive.

First, the brain of the clone was used to extract human precipitates to strengthen Ayin's poor Origin Stone skills. The remaining body of the clone could just be used as waste. Ayin did not constantly transfer his consciousness into it, but simply controlled him. It's enough to say it.

Ayin made perfect use of his poor Origin Stone skills and cloned human bodies to achieve a relatively perfect cycle. It was only after that that his research speed increased by leaps and bounds.

Ayin really wanted to know who invented this Origin Stone technique. He was definitely a genius. He was not stingy with his praise. Only the most superficial use could achieve such an amazing effect. Then To what extent would its real inventor reach such exaggeration?

Judging from the effect of the spell, its inventor is very likely still alive in this world. If possible, Ayin really wants to meet that person.

Unfortunately, there were too many messy things in Adams' memory. Looking for information about a person was like looking for a needle in a haystack. After a few attempts, Ayin gave up on this stupid approach.

He still has a lot of work to do, and Ayin won't touch that thing for the time being until he finds a more efficient method.

Moreover, Ayin has found something more interesting now.

When Kane mobilized all his men to find McGee's whereabouts, Ayin also appeared at the underground entrance of the hospital.

Looking at the messy laboratory, Ayin showed an interesting expression.

"Oh, someone is really here? It's only been a few days and you can't sit still? I just don't know whether the person coming is Kane or McGee..."

According to Ayin's inference, Kane's spell is very close to completion. Although it is not yet time to transfer consciousness, it is still no problem to command McGee to grab a few things through hints.

"That should be McGee. Kane doesn't have the guts to come here alone."

Entering the laboratory through the ajar door, Ayin looked up at the ceiling and shook his head in disappointment.

"It's too rough, it's really too rough. If you only have this level, how can I count on you next?"

There is a camera hidden in the corner of the ceiling. Ayin cannot be stupid enough not to update the laboratory's protective measures for more than ten years. He obviously did this on purpose.

Before evacuating this laboratory, Ayin had already removed most of the defenses here in advance and deliberately left many very important things behind. He was just waiting for Kane to take the bait.

With the importance of this place, it is impossible for Kane to give up this place.

It is true that the opponent has taken the bait now, but the roughness of the technique makes it difficult for Ayin to look straight at him. Anyone with a brain can catch Kane's pigtails from the traces left at the scene.

But there was nothing he could do. Apart from Kane, a fool, Ayin couldn't easily disclose the details of the experiment.

"There is no way, it seems I still need to do it myself..."

Ayin is still counting on others to help him complete the next experiment.

It is unrealistic to expect such a scientist to give up his desire for knowledge. Even if various restrictions are placed on him, Ayin has many other ways to achieve his goals.

For example... taking advantage of some idiots who don't know what they are called.

"If I'm not allowed to do it, then if someone else does it, it's none of my business, right?"

Ayin said to himself, his eyes shining with a daunting and fanatical light.

He destroyed the hard drive that stored the surveillance video and destroyed the surveillance camera. He did become slightly interested in McGee's combat effectiveness during the surveillance. But what interested him even more was the changes that had happened to McGee. .

After checking the damage in the laboratory, Ayin found that the other party took very few things this time.

"Only one purified liquid source stone was taken away. Are there two more fusion reagents?"

After thinking for a moment, Ayin quickly made a decision, "In other words, more than 40% of Kane's spare body has been assimilated by the Origin Stone... It's kind of interesting..."

In fact, Ayin concealed a very important discovery in the experiment.

There is no problem whether the fusion reagent or the clone is used alone, but if these two things are mixed together, it will be a bit fun.

"There should be some kind of 'information' stored in the Source Stone, the soul of the Source Stone? Or... the will of the Source Stone? When encountering brainless clones, this hidden will will become apparent. The clones often He does many incredible things in a confused state of consciousness.”

Before Ayin took over the experiment, the accident was even more horrific.

When the ore disease in those clones reached the final stage, every drop of flesh and blood on their bodies seemed to have a will of its own, ruthlessly tearing the clones into puddles of squirming mince.

The most terrifying thing is that these minced meats have not lost their activity, but under the control of some kind of force, they gradually pile up into a terrifying foreign object.

The researchers who witnessed this scene at the time suffered unspeakable mental trauma, and some are still lying in mental hospitals today.

Now Kane's clone has used those potions, but Ayin is not sure what will happen.

Although it seems fine now, what happens when Kane uses a spell to erase the clone's consciousness?Will the original accident happen again?

Or to go even further, what will happen when Kane's consciousness enters the clone? Ayin is looking forward to that scene.

"They will still come here..."

"I need to make some more preparations."

Chapter 76 Considerations of the agent

"From today, you will live here."

"Someone will come over to deliver food to you at a fixed time every day, so don't think about running away."

The door was slammed shut, and with the sound of the key being locked, no expression could be seen on the deputy's somewhat pale face.

In order to prevent him from escaping from here, the other party did not even completely heal his injuries, but hung him up and kept him in a half-dead state.

Although there is nothing wrong with normal activities, don’t even think about strenuous activities.

In fact, there was no need for them to do this. The agent had no intention of escaping from here.

The connection with the empire was interrupted, causing his mind to be in chaos, and he urgently needed a safe place to consider his next plan.

Now he seems to be imprisoned in this manor, but in fact, besides here, it is difficult for him to find other safe places. At least it is much better than falling into the hands of his father in this body. It seems that he The final performance still had a certain effect.

After being brought here in a daze, he quickly regained his composure. After all, he was an elite agent of the Empire of Consciousness. The previous accidents made him feel a little confused at best, but they could not break his will.

Now that the connection with the empire has been lost, the wish of the owner of this body can only be put aside for the time being. Finding a way to establish contact with the empire is the most important thing.

The only problem is...even he doesn't know where the empire is.

The territory of the Consciousness Empire does not exist in any known territory of Terran civilization. Every time he performs a mission, he puts his consciousness into the descending body through a special device, and then reports to the Empire after the mission is completed. , leaving it up to the Empire to reclaim his consciousness.

After that, the descending body will be used by dedicated personnel and become the nails that the empire lurks in the civilization of Terra.

But now that he can no longer contact the Empire, his consciousness is trapped in this advent body. Before he can find a way back, he must play the role of 'McGee'.

[Will the empire notice that I have lost contact?No...it's better not to put your hopes on this. 】

Lying on the bed, the agent silently thought about this problem.

It is a very stupid thing to place all hope on the Empire. He knows very well that this backward civilization actually has no good intentions at all. The Empire only maintains a very limited attention to Terra. A pawn like him Disappearances would not attract many people's attention at all, and there were not a few agents who rolled over and died every year.

[Maybe... I should take the initiative to do something. If I can attract the attention of the empire, I will have hope of returning. 】

First of all... ordinary things would not attract the empire's attention at all.

Even if a disaster such as massacre of a city or country occurs, this is an internal matter of the Terran civilization and has nothing to do with the empire.

If you want to attract the empire's attention, you must find another way.

【That laboratory! 】

After searching for a moment in McGee's memory, he quickly found his target.

It was precisely because of the potion in that laboratory that the connection was established between this man and the Empire. Maybe he could follow what McGee did before, and maybe he could re-establish contact with the Empire.

He was just an ordinary working class person in the empire, and he didn't know much about the inside story. However, he had been acting as agent for a long time, and he had vaguely guessed some of the empire's criteria for selecting descendants.

The higher the person's fusion rate with the Origin Stone, the more likely it is that they will attract the attention of the Empire. The Empire seems to have been silently collecting information about these infected people, and they don't know what the use is.

The fusion rate of this man named Mikey with the Origin Stone has reached 40%. Although it is not like those monsters with a fusion rate of [-] or [-]%, it is quite rare among ordinary people.

If the fusion rate of ordinary people exceeds 15%, their lives will be in danger, and if it reaches 20%, they will definitely die. That's why this person named McGee can attract the attention of the empire.

And this 40% fusion rate, if he read it correctly, was all accomplished with the help of those potions.

If he could return to that laboratory, he might be able to further improve the fusion of this body, and then there would be a high probability of attracting the empire's attention, so that he could go back.

But before that, he still had a lot of troubles to solve. The father of this body was targeting him for some unknown reason, and the other party also possessed very strange spells, which made him very reluctant to face the old man.

But staying in this place, he was at least safe. He believed that he would not be handed over easily by the owner of the manor.

While the agent was thinking about these questions, the originally locked door opened with a bang.

He subconsciously looked in that direction and saw the man who brought him back standing at the door, looking at him with a smile.

"Do you have time to chat with me?"

Enduring the pain, the agent sat up from the bed and nodded silently.
