Chapter 381: The Ideal That Gradually Goes Away
"I disagree!"
Originally, he was going to abandon his body and use the eye soul to live, Denton already felt very strange, not to mention, if he wanted to maintain that eye soul system, he had to use the power of the Great Eye......
How can this be?
"Stop! A system that must survive with the help of the power of the Great Eye cannot be said to be a success at all! ”
Denton also revered the Great Eye, and regarded the Great Eye who saved them as a benefactor.
But he doesn't think of the Great Eye as a god who guards them.
The Great Eye's attitude when he prayed for the healing of the Red Death in Adenis speaks for itself.
"The Great Eye will leave one day, and if you keep relying on the Great Eye, what will become of it?"
Quite simply, when the time comes, no matter how good the future created by Edith's eye soul system is, it will eventually become a veritable hell!
Because they didn't solve the problem of the Red Death at all, they just postponed it.
Therefore, this matter, if it is not solved by the strength of their human beings, there is no point!
Denton convinces Adenis.
"This is something that we should solve on our own, and we can't pin the future of the Demon World on an unknown force all the time."
Denton believes in the human possibility.
That's why he is obsessed with the experiment of physical enhancement and transformation.
Adenes, however, disagrees.
He believes that the Great Eye is the benefactor who helped them build this world, and will definitely be by their side at all times.
And, in addition to relying on the power of the Great Eye, Edith's Eye Soul system is too much in line with his definition of an ideal world.
There was no need to fear death, no more death threats, and the ideal world in which people could live happily ever after, and Adenis really couldn't give up because of Denton's idea that seemed to him to be just a worry.
Adenis rebuked Danton harshly, and ordered Danton not to continue his sacrificial flesh enhancement experiment.
"You're wrong......"
Denton muttered under his breath and left dejected.
Adenis looked at Danton sadly.
"Why can't you understand me? Friend......"
……
The Eye Soul system was implemented after all.
Because of Adenes' decision.
It was also because the Great Eye agreed to give Adenis help.
The inhabitants of the Eye Demon World have become Eye Spirits.
Denton is no exception.
But, this is only Denton's stopgap measure.
Because Denton didn't intend to stop experimenting with flesh enhancement.
Even if the Soul System is already running.
Even if Adenis had already ordered him like that.
Denton shared his thoughts with his assistants.
"Goyo, the Eye Soul System that relies on the power of the Great Eye will collapse one day, and that is definitely not the future of the Eye Demon World, so, as before, continue to assist me in completing the experiment!"
Goyo agreed.
Humans should survive on their own evolution...... Goyo agrees with Denton's philosophy.
What's more, he is confused about the road ahead.
Denton's invitation gave him a way forward.
Time is like the hands of a clock, drawing a circle and returning to square one.
In the past, because of Denton's invitation, he had the motivation to continue to live, and now, it is the same.
The same goes for Chloe, who calls Denton her father and gets the meaning of survival from Denton.
……
The first is the preparation phase.
With the help of Goyo and Chloe, Denton secretly built a new laboratory.
Then, with Adair's help, Denton's body was transported from his slumber, where the bodies of all the inhabitants of the Beholder World were stored, to Denton's laboratory.
Yes, Denton decided to experiment with his own body.
At the same time, Denton wanted to open a new experimental project...... He wanted to directly create a human who had completed his final evolution.
As you can imagine, no matter which project it is, it will take a lot of time.
Ironically, however, the operation of the Eye Soul system gave Denton plenty of time to experiment.
……
Denton's experiment began again.
The first is the flesh enhancement and transformation experiment.
Although there is experience in previous research, that is not enough to rule out the dangers of experimentation.
For Denton, it was an countless experiment to pull his own body, which had already stepped into the realm of death, back to the world of the living.
But these failures are not meaningless.
In the repeated tugging with the Grim Reaper, Denton's physical body "evolved".
A strong body and miraculous abilities, an incomparably strong tolerance to external factors, and the cells that are extracted alone will not age the dead cells.
There is no doubt that Denton achieved the final evolution he had hoped for, attaining immortality.
However, this success is the accidental product of countless failures, which cannot be understood and cannot be reproduced.
It was hard to get the immortal body, and if it couldn't be used for the people, it wouldn't be meaningful, and Adenis wouldn't stop the eye soul system because of this......
With that in mind, Denton began to study ways to popularize the results of his body.
At the same time, Denton's experiments to create the ultimate life form were also going on simultaneously.
It was not a baby that grew from an embryo, but a child who already had a certain human form from the beginning.
……
In the process of creating the ultimate lifeform, Denton suffered greater difficulties and blows than the intensive transformation experiment.
The children who were alive one second were all dead the next.
"Why? Why can't it be successful? ”
Denton watched the scene in great pain.
Goyo comforts Danton.
"Summarize the reasons for the failure, then reset and start over."
"Well, but before that, they have to be buried."
Goyo didn't quite understand Denton's approach.
"Just scrap it, these are not people yet, they are just some failures."
"Even so, it was a valuable sacrifice."
Denton swore that he would never let these sacrifices go to waste.
In the end, however, Denton's expectations were disappointed.
Most children die as they grow up.
The few children who were about to take shape caused Denton even more pain.
Once,
A child, with joy at the new birth, smiled beautifully at Denton.
But in the next second, the smile became tattered, and the whole face lost even its shape.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry ......!"
Denton, who witnessed this scene, couldn't help but cry bitterly.
He wanted to put an end to the experiment.
He didn't want the children to suffer like this anymore.
Goyo encouraged Denton.
"It's a little bit closer, we can't give up, otherwise the children's previous sacrifices will be in vain."
Just like he did when Denton's flesh-enhancing transformation experiment failed.
But after that, how many times were expectations disappointed, and how many children were sacrificed?
I can't count them.
And this repetition has been going on for hundreds of years.
distress, anxiety, pain, sadness...... All kinds of negative emotions eroded Denton's heart, and at some point, Denton began to point the finger of these pains at Adenis and Edith, who refused to admit his experiments.
Subsequently, Denton's goals began to drift as well.
"I have to prove to them that I'm right! If I use my cells, I will be able to create the perfect ultimate lifeform! ”
Denton added his own cells to the children's initial settings and continued the experiment.
He began to pour more affection into the children, not just the boys, he also began to raise the girls, and named them Leon and Mion.
"Look, it's Daddy who came to see you."
Denton saw them as his own sons and daughters.
"By the way, Daddy is going to sing you a lullaby."
Denton sang his usual tune.
"The egg made with a smile is still one step away, with tears and anger, the egg will soon break, infused with blood, and it will cost life to buy ......"
……
Contrary to the constant failure of creating life, Denton's experiments on how to apply his physical properties to others were successful.
He used his blood and cells to create a strengthening device and transformed the body of his daughter Chloe, allowing her to live under this red sky with her own body.
It's the same with Goyo, who has been strengthened and transformed into a body.
Then, Denton suggests, it's time for them to find more companions.
Without the consent of Adenes.
Goyo understood what Denton meant.
Does he want the transants to protect this place?
Could it be that he already sees Adenis as a hostile force to be confronted?
Does he want to provoke a war?
It was as if Goyo had seen that tragic future.
But the question is, when did it start? The Denton, who wept and apologized for a person's sacrifice, became like this......
And what role did he play in this?
Is this kind of life, such a future, really what he wants?
Goyo was suddenly a little confused.
