The road to completion starts from the Gate of Truth

Except for the part above his neck, his body was completely unable to move. Both the mechanical and human parts seemed to have been disconnected from his brain.

If he could look back at his back, he would find that the artificial skin on the back of his neck had been cut open, the protective shell on his back had also been removed, and the artificial spine composed of mechanical and electronic components was exposed to the air. , a thin metal wire was roughly inserted into the gap between the components, causing a short circuit in part of the circuit, completely blocking the signal connection between his brain and the lower torso.

——This is a method that Fang Yuan came up with after carefully analyzing the structure of his artificial limbs. It can make Zhizi Yingyin lose his ability to move without causing him irreparable damage.

Rolling his eyes and observing the surrounding situation, Hiruzi Yingyin found that he had been taken to an abandoned residence. His daughter Kohina was also tied into a rice dumpling, lying in the corner of the room with a dejected face, twisting from time to time. Move your body, trying to break free from this bondage.

Of course, the most important thing is that the strong man who defeated the father and daughter is sitting opposite Zhizi Yingyin, looking at him up and down with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Speaking of which, your transformation into a prosthetic body is really thorough!" Fang Yuan said.

He had checked it before and found that the setting of Zhizi Yingyin was indeed the same as what he had seen in the main world. Most of his body had been replaced by machinery.

This "most part" is really worthy of the name. In fact, according to Fang Yuan's examination results, except for his brain, cerebellum, brainstem and a small part of the spinal cord, this guy's whole body is made of holmium metal as the basic frame material. A complete mechanized prosthetic body.

Of course, the little OO below him is no longer there. No wonder he used artificial insemination when he robbed women to give birth to his daughter. After all, he himself has long since lost that function... Ahem ! Putting this kind of gossip aside for now, let's get back to the topic - "Prosthetic transformation...are you talking about my body...Humph! What kind of joke are you talking about! Aren't you yourself a person who is more powerful than me?" Do you want a monster that is even less human? Don't tell me how much human part you still have in your body!" Although he was in jail, Zhizi Yingyin showed no fear at all. Instead, he opened his mouth and spoke back.

It can be seen from his words that he still thinks that Fang Yuan is a mechanical transformation person like him, but with more powerful capabilities! "...I'm sorry, I am indeed a 100% pure human!" Fang Yuan finally understood what the guy opposite was thinking, and was speechless for a moment.

It's so pitiful that after he obtained supernatural power, he often used alchemy, alchemy and other powers to "knife" himself, constantly optimizing and strengthening his body. Later, after obtaining the third method, he was upgraded to In the realm of materialization of the soul, the external body has become a projection of the essence of the soul in the material world.

But to Fang Yuan, he is still a real human being, both psychologically and physically - he has flesh and blood, his skin bleeds when it is broken, he feels pain when he is hurt, and little OO still maintains a normal appearance. reproductive function.

He never thought that one day he would be treated as a mechanical transformation by a person who was almost the same as a robot! Regarding Fang Yuan's excuse, Zhi Ziyingyin just responded with a "liar" look: (﹁ ﹁) "Okay, let's not talk nonsense. Let's talk about why you guys treat me so badly when we meet. Take action? Are you really the kind of perverted murderer who wants to kill every person he sees?" This is what Fang Yuan doesn't understand the most. He has only been in this world for a short time, and he has only punched him to death along the way. Apart from a gastrea animal, I have never had any grudges with anyone, so why am I being chopped down for no apparent reason! "..." It seemed that he was very surprised by Fang Yuan's question. After a long silence, Zhizi Yingyin said: "Although we have the intention to kill people and silence them, the real reason why we took action is not because of you. Did he take the lead in releasing his momentum and showing hostility? " "..." Fang Yuan blinked, having difficulty understanding what the other party said.

After detailed questioning, he found out that the father and daughter actually felt a heavy pressure when they saw him. They thought it was Fang Yuan's deliberate release of momentum, which naturally led to hostility.

Of course, this does not mean that the two of them did not have the intention to kill people and silence them. It can only be said that it was the powerful aura that Fang Yuan exuded inadvertently that made Zhizi Yingyin and his daughter directly define him without thinking too much. He became an enemy and then took action without hesitation.

Fang Yuan also finally realized that his method of using the mental world to bless the physical body actually had such a flaw that was not considered a flaw.

'It seems that we can't leave it on like this on certain occasions in the future...' This was the only conclusion Fang Yuan drew from today's incident.

"Okay, let's change the question to the next question. How much do you know about 'Gastrona Virus'?" "..."... More than an hour later, Fang Yuan finally ended the inquiry.

"Mr. Zhizi Yingyin, I am very grateful for your cooperation. Your information has saved me a lot of trouble!" Fang Yuan stood up from his seat, walked up behind Zhizi Yingyin, and pressed his hand on his shoulder. The back of the neck.

"What are you going to do? Let Dad go!" Hiroko Kohina, who had been staying in the corner, struggling with the rope on his body, thought that Fang Yuan had finished asking for the information he wanted, and now planned to eliminate the hidden dangers, and suddenly became anxious He shouted out and struggled even harder. Looking at his momentum, it seemed that he had to crawl to his father's side to protect him even if he had to crawl.

"Don't worry, I have no intention of killing you (this is also harmonious)."

When Fang Yuan saw the little girl looking at him like she was looking at her father's enemy, he admired Zhizi Yingyin's brainwashing ability and had to clarify something: "To be honest, I don't think much of you. I feel bad, this conflict itself is just a misunderstanding, I will let you go later, don’t worry about what I will do to you..." This is the truth, Fang Yuan really doesn’t have any bad feelings towards Zhizi Yingyin and his daughter. .

In fact, compared to the indecisive and over-the-top male protagonist Satomi Rentaro, Fang Yuan actually admires Hiroko Yingyin, an avenger who is determined to destroy the world - as long as the other party changes his over-the-top speech. If you are used to and show off your actions.

As he spoke, Fang Yuan removed the metal wire inserted into the back of Zhizi Yin's neck, blocking his nerve conduction signals. Zhizi Yin immediately felt that his body had finally regained control.

But Zhizi Yingyin couldn't feel relaxed at all.

You must know that if he followed his temperament and stood in Fang Yuan's current force field, he would never let the father and daughter go.

In particular, Zhizi Yingyin himself knows that he is not a good person. Thinking about it personally, anyone's first choice in this situation should be to kill their father and daughter (which is also harmonious) to avoid future troubles. .

However, at this moment, Fang Yuan made a choice that was completely contrary to common sense... - There must be a conspiracy in this! ')427'\u003eChapter 426: Dark Cuisine Lover—Sumi Muroto

No matter what Zhizi Yingyin, who believed deeply in conspiracy theories, guessed, after Fang Yuan obtained the information he wanted, he did exactly what he promised and left without doing anything extra.

"Sure enough, as mentioned in the original plot, the gastroenterovirus in this world was indeed created by humans."

Fang Yuan confirmed this information from Zhizi Yingyin, which made his impression of human beings in this world even worse.

"This reminds me of those bastard capitalists in the Resident Evil world. They are all on the road to self-destruction, and they can't even see the taillights!" It seems that no matter which world the human beings are in, They are all accustomed to seeking death.

"Moreover, ordinary people in this world are obviously even worse..." Walking in these narrow alleys, Fang Yuan could see some ragged little girls hiding in dark corners from time to time. When he saw Fang Yuan noticed While they were there, all the people who exclaimed in low voices ran away in all directions, as if they had seen a savage beast.

"..." Even though the iconic red eyes were not visible from them, the fact that they were all female, as well as their young age, as well as the physical fitness that was not consistent with their age shown in their actions, Fang Yuan directly You can determine their identities - they are the so-called "cursed children".

Although in the original plot, most of these poor girls who were not accepted by ordinary people hid in the ruins of the outer areas and struggled to survive, but now it seems that even in the inner city, there are many "cursed children" here. Seek life.

However, judging from their frightened looks when they saw strangers, it was obvious that their situation was not very good.

"Alas -" Fang Yuan sighed, but he did not go directly to contact these poor girls like some of the protagonists, nor did he provide any material help.

There was no other reason. There was only one reason why Fang Yuan didn't help these children - he had no money.

Yes, this was a dilemma he had never experienced before during his usual time travel, because alchemy could not be used, and other extraordinary powers could not affect the range beyond his physical body. Fang Yuan encountered this kind of situation for the first time. The embarrassing situation of "a penny can stump a heroic man".

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that his soul's material body didn't need to eat like ordinary people, and could only survive with the endless magic flowing from the origin of his immortal soul, he would have to think about how to fill his stomach.

Well, by then the content of this volume will probably turn into a messy plot like "The Working Demon King Fang Yuan"... Fang Yuan, who didn't want to become a wage earner, walked out of the intricate and narrow alleys behind him and returned to a more... On a wider street with more people.

The previous interrogation of Zhizi Yingyin took more than an hour, plus the time spent on the road, and before you knew it, it was already sunset.

Under the dim yellow sunlight slanting in the west, looking at the people coming and going from work on the street, the peaceful atmosphere of "everything is normal", no, it should be said that it is too "normal", and then think about the dark corner that is almost separated by a wall Among them, Fang Yuan couldn't help feeling a lot for those poor girls who were struggling to survive and didn't even dare to see anyone.

"...Forget it, no matter how much you think about it now, it won't change anything. Let's go find that woman first!" With that said, Fang Yuan looked at the street signs, determined his position, and then turned around in a certain direction. Step away.

... In the basement of a certain hospital, a woman with messy hair and sloppy clothes was busy doing something.

Although she was wearing a large white coat, she could still see the beautiful figure of this woman from the lines of the clothes.

If she washes and irons her unbearably messy hair, and puts on nicer clothes, she will become a charming and sexy beautiful lady.

No, even in her current sloppy appearance, she is still a decadent beauty with a different kind of charm.

It's just that what she's doing now makes her immediately lose all her bonus points in the eyes of ordinary people - this woman is cooking and eating in a beaker next to a corpse! Gu~~ There was an unseemly sound of gastrointestinal peristalsis in her belly. The already hungry woman stirred the viscous soup in the beaker with a bamboo skewer and said to her belly: "Just wait a moment, it's almost done." "It's almost done..." After waiting for a few more minutes, with a "ding" sound, the timer on the side sounded the countdown bell.

"Very good, it's time to eat!" The woman pierced the soup with a bamboo skewer, and a lump with a sticky surface dripping with dark juice suddenly emerged from it. It matched her current appearance and those around her. The body looked as if the internal organs had been dug out and cooked.

Of course, everyone who knows this woman knows that she does not have such a heavy taste. That thing that looks very unappetizing is actually just some kind of taro.

"Ah~um~chew~chew~gudu...Well, it was a little overcooked this time. Is it a problem with the heat or the time?" While eating, he was talking to himself, as if he was in a restaurant. The chef is tasting the new experimental dishes.

At this moment, suddenly, the basement door was opened.

"Huh? Come here at this time, is it Rentaro?" Thinking this, the woman turned around, only to find an unknown man standing at the door.

"Hello, are you Doctor Sumire Muroto?" The visitor asked, looking at the woman squatting next to the corpse eating an unknown dark substance with a bamboo stick.

... "..." "..." After a brief silence, the woman named Sumire Muroto finally reacted.

She did not put down the unidentified substance in her hand that was extremely damaging to her image. Instead, she was still savoring the taste of the food while squinting at the uninvited guest at the door: "Ah, I am... but who are you, little brother? It looks like Very familiar! And how did you know my identity and where I live? "...Yes, I am indeed not a local."

To be precise, I just arrived in this city today.

As for where I learned your identity and residence...well, this was kindly provided by a certain 'enthusiastic citizen'. "

The visitor, Fang Yuan, said this.

Yes, he didn't lie. He learned about Sumire Muroto's seclusion place from Hiroko Yin's mouth.

As one of the surviving Cyborg soldiers in the New Human Creation Project, it was naturally impossible for Zizi Yingyin not to pay attention to one of the four sages who led the project. During his time in Tokyo, he had already made clear the secrets of the chamber. Tosumire's hiding place.

Of course, after confirming that Sumire Muroto is no longer involved in any government-related projects, Hiroko Kageyin did not go to trouble her - what he wants to revenge is this sick world, not a completely guilty person. The reclusive scientist.

')428'\u003eChapter 427 Bait and deal, formal meeting with the hero

"...So, you are looking for me because you want to obtain research information on gastrea?" After patiently listening to Fang Yuan's request, Sumire Muroto brushed back her messy long hair that covered half of her face. Narrowing his eyes: "Why do you think I will give you the information like this?!" "Based on this!" After the words fell, Fang Yuan flicked his finger. Under the control of his micro-level power, huge power was condensed in The small fingers hit the air with extremely high speed and special frequency, and a finger wind as sharp as a sword suddenly popped out.

With a "swift" sound, the finger wind brushed against Sumire Muroto's mouth and cut off the bamboo stick in her hand. Then, without stopping, it shot directly at the opposite wall. Quietly, a hole as thin as a finger appeared in the brick. Wall made of stone.

"..." Sumire Muroto looked down at the taro that had fallen on the clothes, then looked up at the hole in the wall behind her. After two seconds of silence, she turned to look at Fang Yuan with wary eyes and said, "You Are you a reformer? "Who sent you here?" Without waiting for Fang Yuan to answer, she sneered: "Huh! Do you think you can make me surrender with this kind of power?" The kind of frail little woman commonly seen in Hollywood plots is instead a perverted female scientist who can eat dark food next to a corpse without changing her expression. She also has a strong misanthropic tendency towards the death of her lover, and is generally violent. It's really impossible to threaten her.

But... "I think you misunderstood!" Fang Yuan smiled and said: "I am not threatening you, and I am not a reformer. I just showed you the special power I possess - As a pure human, gain power beyond that of gastrea!" Fang Yuan threw down the bait.

"Not a modified person...a pure human being?" Sumire Muroto looked up and down Fang Yuan's body, her face full of disbelief.

"If you don't believe me, you can use X-ray or something to check. There are absolutely no messy mechanical parts in my body!" Fang Yuan increased the amount of bait.

"..." Muroto Sumire was silent for a few seconds again, and then said: "Follow me!" Then she turned around and walked to the corner of the room - there was a portable X-ray imager.

... Ten minutes later, not only did they confirm that there were indeed no artificial parts in Fang Yuan's body, but they also tested Fang Yuan's strength and physical strength.

When she saw the completely unscientific test data in front of her, Muroto Sumire looked straight at the man who came uninvited: "It's unbelievable, just an ordinary human, can actually reach this level? Aren't you really infected with the protostomia virus like the cursed children?!" "Hehe, what do you think?" Fang Yuan asked back.

"..." Muroto Sumire certainly knew that this was impossible.

In the ten years since the appearance of protostomia, it is impossible that no one has studied the combination of protostomia virus and humans.

But just like all the victims who were infected by the protostomes and mutated into protostomes, all such experiments failed.

The only way in the world to create native humans who can fight protostomes is "embryo infection", which is also the way those "cursed children" were born.

Children born in this way can indeed have powerful strength far beyond ordinary humans. The strongest among them can even fight against the "Zodiac" in stage V head-on and even win.

But the only ones who can "have the honor" to obtain this extraordinary power can be women, and starting from the time when protostomes were first "discovered", the age of these girls cannot be more than 10 years old.

And the man in front of him, whether in terms of gender or age, does not meet this standard.

In other words, either some kind of transcendental biotechnology has appeared in this world, successfully realizing the operation of safely implanting protostomes in adults, or as Fang Yuan said, this is another kind of supernatural power different from conventional cognition.

If it is the former, although Muroto Sumire has long faded out of the research circle, she still keeps an eye on the development of related technologies.

If there really was a force that developed this level of biotechnology, she couldn't have not heard anything about it.

Then the conclusion is very simple. Even if it sounds ridiculous, after eliminating all the wrong options, the only one left is the correct answer - this is indeed some kind of extraordinary power that she doesn't know! 　　"Tell me, what kind of power is this? I can give you any information you want!"　　The fish is hooked! 　　...　　A few days later.

Still in this basement, another uninvited guest came to the door.

Well, it shouldn't be called "uninvited guest". Judging from the familiar attitude of the visitor, it is obvious that he is a frequent visitor here.

"Doctor, are you there?"　　Pushing open the half-open basement door, the boy tiptoed into this place that made him feel very uncomfortable.

- Although it was not the first time he came here, under the bad living habits of that sloppy doctor, it was always filled with the indescribable smell of corpses and disinfectant, and he couldn't get used to it.

I can't imagine how the ultimate doctor who is always sloppy and stays at home can live in such a place for so many years. If it's him, staying here for three consecutive days is the limit. If it's longer, he will definitely develop a mental illness! 　　While complaining in his heart, the boy walked down the stairs and finally came to the room.

But this time, he unexpectedly found the second living person in the room besides the doctor.

"Who are you——?" 　　Seeing the stranger in front of him flipping through a stack of documents, out of professional habitual vigilance, the boy quietly put his right hand behind his waist, where he could easily pull out a pistol.

"Oh? Are you looking for Muroto Sumire?" The man, Fang Yuan, put down the information in his hand, raised his head and looked at the boy in front of him, and recognized his identity at a glance-it was the protagonist, Rentaro Satomi, who had only seen a back figure before.

Fang Yuan's gaze paused slightly on the other person's left eye, right hand, and right leg. He didn't see anything abnormal from the outside. He couldn't help but sigh again at the artificial prosthetic technology in this world - it's almost as good as my technology... Ahem, okay, let's not talk about Fang Yuan's bragging.

Just as Fang Yuan was looking at the so-called "male protagonist" in this world, Muroto Sumire finally heard the noise and walked out from the inner room while scratching her messy hair.

"Oh, it's Rentaro! Eh, you're alone today? Didn't Enju come with you?" The third update is complete')429'\u003eChapter 428 Rentaro's consultation, slightly changed plot

"Enju...it's not time to check the erosion rate yet, so I came alone..." Satomi Rentaro scratched his hair, said a little embarrassedly, then looked in Fang Yuan's direction with a puzzled look and asked: "Who is this...?" "Ah~ Don't worry about him, just think he's staying here for free!" Muroto Sumire waved her hand and said with disgust.

"...Stay here, stay here for free?" Satomi Rentaro looked at the mess in the basement, especially the various corpses that had been embalmed, and felt a little confused.

Anyone else want to live in a place like this? Turning around to look at Fang Yuan who had been silent for a while, seeing his strong and perfect body, and then looking back at the slovenly doctor, Rentaro suddenly had a bold guess in his mind - could it be There must be something between these two people! Yes, if you ignore the dirty white coat on Sumire Muroto and trim her hair, she is still a beauty whose appearance and figure can be rated above 90 points. In such a dark basement After staying for a long time, it’s not impossible to find a strong man to relieve the loneliness... No, no, no! The young man immediately shook his head, throwing away the increasingly unreliable thoughts in his mind.

Satomi Rentaro has known Dr. Muroto Sumire for a long time, so he naturally knows what kind of person she is. She is a perverted woman who can spend the night with corpses. Not to mention a boyfriend, she doesn’t even have a sex partner—— In fact, no man in the world can accept living with such a woman! According to common sense, this strange man should be a pure guest, or a "customer" like him? Rentaro thought of his prosthetic eyes hidden under the camouflage skin, and couldn't help but turn to look at Fang Yuan, and looked at him again, guessing which parts of the other person's body were artificial... "Okay, don't worry about that guy, anyway. Tell me about you. What's the reason for coming here this time?" Sumire Muroto waved her hand and turned Satomi Rentaro's attention back.

"Uh, no, not really..." The young man came back to his senses, and then immediately shook his head, indicating that everything about his prosthetic limb was normal.

"I just have some doubts, and I hope to get answers from you, doctor... Just a few days ago, during a commission, I met a strange person at the scene of a gastrea-related case..." Satomi Rentaro hesitated. He said, seeming to consider whether he should say the next words.

"A strange person?" The half of Sumire Muroto's brow that was not covered by her long hair raised her eyebrows, and she became slightly interested: "How 'strange' is that?" "Well, a person who claims to destroy the world... ...He seems to be a reformed person like me, and the degree of reformation is much deeper than mine. Even his neck was twisted 180 degrees without any damage...I am a little concerned about this person, and I would like to ask the doctor to help investigate this. person’s identity.”

Satomi Rentaro expressed his request.

"Huh?" Fang Yuan, who was listening on the other side, raised his head in surprise.

If he remembered correctly, Satomi Rentaro should be talking about Hiroko Kageyin. In the first episode of the anime, the first meeting of the two people was just like what Rentaro said - after a brief fight, although Rentaro relied on his Tendo's fighting skills won a move, and he kicked Hiroko Yingyin's neck and twisted it 180 degrees, but then the opponent broke the broken neck back with his hands as if it was nothing, and then left calmly. .

However, the original plot was followed by a battle with a spider-type gastrula that had just been infected and transformed. Rentaro didn't take Hiruko Kage Yin's matter to heart at all, and came to Sumire Muroto just to consult with that person. The thing about gastrea, but now... Is this the butterfly effect that occurred because of Fang Yuan's arrival? Or maybe the previous plot development was different from what Fang Yuan remembered? "Oh~~ My neck was twisted 180 degrees and I was still unscathed... Does that mean that the spine starting from the cervical vertebra has been modified..." Just listening to Rentaro's description, Sumire Muroto judged a lot of information. .

You know, although the human body mechanization technology in this world is powerful, it is not so dark that it is too exaggerated.

Compared with Rentaro Satomi's surgery, which only involves mechanical replacement of limbs and eyeballs, it is much more difficult to transform the central nervous system such as the spinal cord.

And unlike organs such as the limbs and eyeballs that are "less important" compared to the entire body, the spinal cord is the part of the central nervous system responsible for controlling most low-level reflexes, and its functions are closely related to most of the internal organs of the human body. Once the spinal cord is mechanically replaced, the major organs of the human body must also be synchronously transformed.

In other words, the person Rentaro was talking about had not only his spine transformed into an artificial mechanical organ, but most of his internal organs should also have been transformed.

Transformers of this level were rare when Sumire Muroto was in charge of the New Human Creation Project. It was usually soldiers who were dying on the battlefield or volunteers who had no choice but to choose this path.

Several names quickly flashed through her mind, all of which were subjects she knew who had undergone this kind of transformation surgery. She didn't know which one Rentaro had encountered... "Well, I probably know the situation. I will help you pay attention in the future... But from your description, the other party is a madman who wants to 'destroy the world'. I'm afraid he will jump out on his own without us investigating!" The world's top mind who read all the books in the library in three days, Sumire Muroto not only has the world's top attainments in gastrea and mechanized transformation of the human body, but also has considerable achievements in human psychology.

For those anti-social and anti-human psychopathic thinking patterns, even if she has not met him in person, but only heard Rentaro's verbal description, she can give a preliminary psychological profile, and intuitively concluded, "The other person must still be there." will jump out again" conclusion.

"I hope so... But the other party seems to have no bottom line in his actions. Even the police can kill him. I really don't know how many casualties he will cause next time he appears..."　　Rentaro Satomi smiled bitterly and shook his head. For a moment, he didn't know whether to expect the other party to jump out and cause trouble, or to expect the other party to continue to hide like this.

Seeing this, the doctor who had known this boy for a long time had to sigh and say: "You kid, you are really too kind..."')430'\u003eChapter 429 A world not worth saving

After sending off Rentaro Satomi who came and went in a hurry, Muroto Sumire turned to look at Fang Yuan who had been pretending to be invisible and had not said a word from beginning to end.
