Late at night, mountaintop shrine, underground ice cellar.

This is just the periphery of the [Ice Cellar], a house made of iron cages, wrapped in cold all the year round, like a prison, or it is a prison, and ordinary people can only stay in it for three days in the warmest clothes. Inside the cage, there was only a wooden plank suspended by iron chains, there were no windows, and a faint blue light floated in the air.

Heavy breathing echoed inside the cage, the door opened, and a man appeared at the end of the hallway, dressed in a black kimono and a black cotton jacket on the outside. Step by step, he walked towards the iron cage.

"Oh, it's old! It's just that this level of cold is a little unbearable. As he spoke, the man tugged at the padded jacket on his shoulder.

"Are you here to let me out? If not, then please come back. "In the iron cage, the main station of the Koike family is straight.

"Koike-san, we've been working together for ten years, do you have to be so ruthless?"

"Hehe, Patriarch, maybe this is the last time I will call you like that, in my heart, from the moment you made that decision at the meeting, our cooperation is over. ”

Usami Kuo didn't speak, just opened the folding bench and folding table he had brought, and he sat there, with an iron cage between the two.

The head of the Koike family frowned and said, "I don't have Yaxing here to drink with you." ”

"Kikumasamune's sake, are you sure you don't want some?" Usami Kuo put the celadon wine glass on the table, "I'm calling it hot." ”

The head of the Koike family hesitated, sat down on the wooden board, stretched out the iron cage with his hand, and picked up the cup of warm sake.

"When was the last time we drank like this?" asked Usami Kuo.

"Twelve years ago, your daughter passed the family test. ”

"Hehe, I forgot. ”

The two of them sat in a cold iron cage, the lights dimmed, silently drinking the sake in their own wine glasses, and whoever finished drinking it would come from the wine cup by themselves, and did not say anything during the process.

"What are you doing with me? You can just send someone to kill me, or leave me to fend for myself here. ”

"Although you didn't succeed in fusing the bloodline back then, you won't die of cold here, right?"

The head of the Koike family sneered: "Hehe, just like you, we are all old. ”

"Yes, we are all old, and the future and family belong to the young. Usami Kuo said, "Hey, can you drink a little slower?" ”

The head of the Koike family snorted coldly and said, "They are all people who are going to die, can't you let me take two more sips of wine?"

"Absolutely. Hisao smiled, "Let's get down to business, I know you're not happy with my choice today, but I'm doing this for the future of my family." ”

"You're the head of the house, you can say whatever you say, anyway, you can put the rebuttal in the ice cellar with a single word. ”

Hisao still smiled, "Do you want to know what's hidden in the ice cellar? Hehe, it's not a good thing, it's just a tube of blood." ”

"A tube of blood?" the head of the Koike family wondered.

"Here you go, I took it out of the ice cellar on purpose, you can see this tube of blood, and thank you to the intruder for not taking it away. ”

Taking the cold test tube, the liquid called "blood" in it was black and very viscous, the head of the Koike family squinted, put it in front of his eyes to observe it carefully, and asked, "Are you sure you didn't confuse it with soy sauce?"

"I'm sorry, but it's blood, and it's Yukihime's blood. ”

"What?!'s Miss's?" exclaimed the head of the Koike family, "But, but this ......"

"That's right, Koike-san, as you think, a person with this level of blood flowing in his body is already a half-dead person to a certain extent. ”

The head of the Koike family stood up suddenly, "Do you know what you're talking about? That's your Hisao's blood! 15 years the head of the Usami family! You're now telling me she's a "half-dead"?"

"Calm down, Koike-san. ”

"I can't calm down!"

Hisao sighed and said, "Alas, as before, you still can't hold your breath like this. Sit down and let me tell you a story. ”

"Thirty years ago, when my parents were still alive, I was just a gangster in the family, mingling in the family's underworld every day, and I didn't go to school, I only knew how to play with women every day. ”

"Are you showing me about your childhood?"

"Hehe, don't be angry, I heard about you then, the best child of the Koike family. ”

"Hell, you know you're dragging me into the underworld! I was inspired to be a scientist when I was a child, but now I'm the head of Tokyo's biggest underworld! Who do you think it's all about?"

Jiuxiong took a sip of wine and said with a wry smile: "I didn't do it at the time, so among my peers, only you are willing to help me." And aren't you doing very well now?

"No kidding, is this life of squeezing your head in your belt good? Besides, I don't promise I'll survive tonight. ”

"Don't worry, even if something really happens, I won't kill you. ”

"Do I need to thank you?"

"Forget it, you better wait for me to finish and decide whether to say it or not. Thirty years ago, there were no YF reagents, to be precise, there were no finished YF reagents, and at that time, underground forces all over the world were researching YF reagents, and they all wanted to take the "hope of mankind" into their own hands, and of course, the Usami family was no exception. ”

"How did I not know?"

"You were just a student at the time, how could you know this, I also accidentally overheard it from my father, who was the researcher of the YF reagent at that time, and the YF reagent was not called that at that time. Hisao took a sip of the sake in his glass, sighed a long breath of heat, and after a moment, two words that had been dusty for many years came out of his mouth.

"[God-making]. ”

In a sense, the YF reagent does mean this, forcibly breaking through the human body's functions, and even mutating, producing unexplained abilities. But what exactly are you trying to say about this?" asked the head of the Koike family.

"Don't worry, listen to me slowly. As you said, there is an inevitable connection between the creation of gods and the YF reagent, but the results they embody are completely different. The bloodline changed by the YF reagent is at most human, and the bloodline that created the god is the real god. ”

The head of the Koike family was silent for a long time and said, "Hisao, do you really believe in the existence of "gods"?"

"Of course I do, and I'm going to succeed soon. ”

The head of the Koike family frowned, "You mean Yukihime?"

"That's right, thirty years ago, my father didn't succeed in creating gods until he died, and in this way, the creation of gods was completely submerged by the times, until twenty years later, a Chinese girl broke the secret, and after that day, YF reagents spread all over the world, and everyone wanted to get it, and the Usami family spent centuries of savings to buy a batch of reagents, but how many were really successful?"

"Luckily, your daughter is one of them. ”

"Hehe, yes, I'm lucky that the gods favor me Usami. At that time, the YF reagent could only be regarded as a semi-finished product, and the success rate was extremely low, and even if the blood was fused to mutate and produce abnormal abilities, it was even more difficult. The organization of the dark list appeared as if out of thin air, not only controlling the entry and exit of the entire underground force, but also releasing YF reagents with a great success rate, and the family bought them in large quantities, as if success was just around the corner. ”

"Yes, at that time, I was really a Usami family and was about to rise!" sighed the head of the Koike family.

"Who isn't? You're just a small surname in the family, and I'm the patriarch, and I almost committed suicide a few days after the mutation incident!" Hisao shouted, "Dugu tried to completely master the YF reagent, and finally mutated the reagent, which led to a major reform of the underground forces in the world, and the two major organizations of [Assassin] and [Mercenary] were all destroyed, and that year can be said to be the darkest year for the underground forces." In the family, too, all the fused ones either died or mutated into Deadpool, but Yukihime survived. ”

"And now you're telling me she's going to die?"

"I was also desperate at the time, obviously it was the hope of the family, the [survivor] of the mutation event, how could such a thing happen? Later, I learned from my investigation with Momoko that Yukihime's bloodline was very special, in fact, she also mutated at that time, but the mutation was delayed for eight years, and it was only in the last few days that the phenomenon of blood devouring appeared. ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?" asked the head of the Koike family in a low voice.

Hisao stood up, and he suddenly became silent, not because of the Koike family master in front of him, but because of what he had to say next.

A year ago, I discovered that Yukihime's blood was very similar to the presentation of the [God-Making] project that my father had studied, and it could even be said that the two were the same thing. That's right! My father's life's work has actually appeared in Yukihime's body!"

The head of the Koike family also stood up, he held the iron railing in front of him, and asked excitedly, "So Yukihime is a god!? No, her blood is indeed the blood of a half-dead person." ”

"That's exactly what I want to say, Koike-san, I took over the Usami family with you, although you are only a small surname, but I give you a status in the family like a big surname, this matter, I hope to get your support. ”

The head of the Koike family silently poured himself a drink, "You said, if it is about the future of the family, I will support you unconditionally as before!"

"Okay, Xue Ji is indeed a "half-dead person", but according to the god-making plan, she is also a "demigod body", and now she only needs an opportunity, to be precise, a reagent, a serum, and she can truly become a god!"

"Does this have anything to do with last night's thief?"

"Nope. Hisao shook his head, and he said, "I don't really know who the thief is, but I do know who has this serum. ”

"Poof!" After Hisao said those two words, the head of the Koike family slumped on the wooden board, his eyes straight, and he looked at the man outside the bars with a look of horror.

"You want a deal with the devil!?"

In the ice cellar, the roar of a man echoed.
