Night, Research Institute No. 401.

“......”

His consciousness sank into darkness, and after an unknown amount of time, Thorton slowly opened his heavy eyelids, only to find that his limbs were locked in silver shackles, like a large font suspended in a large white hall.

"Crunch-"

It clenched its hands into fists, its thick arms secretly bulging wild muscle lines, and the green tendons on its skin were intertwined, and with the force, the chains of the four silver shackles began to stretch and deform.

"Don't try, you can't break free from these shackles."

Suddenly, Xuan Yue's slightly tired cold voice came softly from behind it, making its hair stand on end!

"Stinky boy!! Let go of your Uncle Thorton, you have the ability to fight with Uncle Ben for 300 rounds!! ”

Thorton, who was found trying to escape, no longer struggled secretly, but blushed widely, tearing the restraints on his hands with a hideous and terrifying face, and the chains of his hands were torn so that they "creaked", but they were as tough as small cobwebs that captured their prey, and there was no appearance of breaking apart.

“......”

After holding on for less than half a minute, Thorton suddenly softened, decadent like a deflated ball, gasping for breath in his mouth, his vicious eyes were full of confusion, and the "voice" and power in his body ...... It's gone.

"Looks like you've found out."

Xuan Yue was wearing a white scientific research coat, holding a stack of experimental data files in her hand, and slowly walked out from behind it, with a pair of deep dark circles on her face, she held the black-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose with one hand, and said lightly: "I have blocked the super gene and dark plane system in your body. ”

"Blockade, Blockade ......"

Thorton seemed incredulous, his face full of sluggishness.

"The super gene and the dark plane system are just "tools" in the end, and although there are certain protective procedures, it is not difficult for real scientists to decipher it. ”

Xuan Yue stared at the information file in his hand, and said lightly: "Three generations of Kamigawa super soldiers, half-beast body, there are traces of artificial modification of the gene engine in the body, it seems to be the handiwork of Styx, and the foundation is very good." ”

"Hey, hey, boy, hurry up and let Uncle Ben go, Uncle Ben promises not to eat you, how about it?"

“......”

In the face of Suoton's clamour, Xuan Yue's eyes looked at it indifferently, there was no emotional fluctuation in his eyes, only a chilling coldness.

Thorton swallowed a little frightened, and said, "Stinky, stinky boy, you, what do you want to do?" ”

"I'm sorry, there are some things I have to do."

Xuan Yue closed the information file in her hand and said in a flat tone: "You were also the guardian saint of this planet, but unfortunately, you are guarding this planet, and I am guarding this world. ”

"Hey, stinky boy, what do you mean?"

"I'm sorry, I need strength, the power to protect this world."

Xuan Yue raised her right hand and slowly spread out her palm, and a "seed" surrounded by dreamy light and shadow floated up from the palm of her hand, flashing a hazy light blue shimmer in the air, blooming like a gorgeous stamen!

["Heart of the Earth" begins to detect targets.] 】

[The target has been confirmed, and the target is: three generations of Kamigawa super soldiers, half-beast body, genotype "Crocodile God" Thorton.] 】

【Warning! Warn! If the stripping process is forcibly activated, it will cause irreparable damage to the stripped "genes" and "dark plane computers"!! 】

"Calculate the damage."

【Terminal Computing......】

[Calculated successfully!] It is estimated that more than 63.17% of the data and genetic resources will be lost during the divestiture process. 】

"Go ahead and start the program."

[Instruction received.] 】

The dream "seeds" floating in the air began to slowly rotate, and the soft light and shadow like the stamen gradually drove the surrounding air, and the flickering light and shadow gradually formed a star cyclone.

“......”

Suddenly, the surface of Suoton's red skin began to slowly precipitate traces of white air, which merged into the central star cyclone little by little, like a trickle of water around the "seed", nourishing its growth!

"This feeling is ......"

Thorton suddenly felt his eyelids heavily, and a feeling of incomparable weakness welled up in his heart, a peace and peace it had never felt before......

In this life, it is either fighting or on the way to fight; In order to survive, it did not hesitate to kill everything to fill its stomach, and it also had a big fight with its own brother, and the two brothers parted ways.

Later, it had a fight with a winged "meat bun", and was inexplicably sealed as a "sacrifice" for thousands of years, and it was locked in that dark space, with no food to eat and no one to talk to, so long that even the self was blurred......

'Who am I, who am I?' ’

It suddenly felt tired and tired......

As the astrocyclone absorbed its "power" and "energy" little by little, Thorton's eyes began to lose their vitality and luster, the wild muscles of his body began to atrophy and stiffen, and the shackles and chains of his limbs gradually loosened.

"......" it hung its head weakly and opened its mouth wide as if to say something......

"Do you have any other wishes?" Xuan Yue stood beside him and said in a calm tone.

"I, am I going to die......"

Thorton's eyes gradually dimmed, as if he wanted to say something, but finally raised his head with great difficulty, breathed weakly and said: "I, I'm so hungry, can you let me take a bite......"

"Well, this won't work, is there anything else?"

"Tell my brother that it's still so ugly and ugly......"

After speaking, Suoton's head hung weakly, and his huge body gradually lost its voice like dead wood, and beside it, Xuan Yue's face was very flat, as if what had passed in front of him was not a living life, but an inconspicuous withered wildflower on the side of the road.

In his mind, a cold mechanical voice suddenly sounded:

[Divestiture successful. 】

“......”

Xuan Yue raised his hand and made a move, and the astrological cyclone began to slowly close, turning back into the light blue "seed" back into the palm of his hand, quietly lingering with an invisible glimmer, reflecting his close face with extreme coldness.

Upgradeable program has been detected, is it being upgraded?] 】

"Yes."

[Started initializing "Dark Plane Computer Fragments" and "Broken Gene Models.] 】

【Upgrading......】

[Estimated upgrade time: 2 days.] 】

[Countdown: "47:59:59."] 】

The "seeds" on Xuan Yue's palms began to overflow with wisps of light blue air, surrounding him like a stream of water, beginning to slowly moisturize and change the structure of his life, and at the invisible genetic level, it seemed that an invisible mysterious force began to quickly rewrite his genetic sequence!

The full sense of power began to slowly flow through the limbs and bones of his body, but Xuan Yue's eyes became more and more cold, like a bottomless pool of cold water, making it impossible to see his gaze.

"I'm sorry."

He muttered softly.

Ever since he embarked on this path of searching for the truth, he has known that the value of some things will gradually fade, disappearing in the gravel of time like withered petals, leaving no trace of nostalgia.

The higher he walked, the bones piled up higher and higher under his feet, until he could no longer see the creatures under his feet......

Thorton is just one of the many corpses in this mountain of corpses.

'Am I going to be the second Karl?' He thought to himself.

“Q？”

Suddenly, Xiao Q flew in from outside, and saw the owner holding the "seed" and standing in place in a daze, his little head tilted, and then flew straight forward, landed on Xuan Yue's shoulder, and said happily: "Q! Q！ Q！！ ”

"Little Q......"

Xuan Yue tilted her head slightly, her eyes fell on Xiao Q on her shoulder, her heart trembled, her eyes cleared slightly, and then she got out of the "weird" state just now.

"Sure enough, Carl left me a lot of gifts......"

He pursed his lips and looked at the "seed" in his hand, a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, but unfortunately, I don't want to become a second "you".

"Little Q, you've helped a lot this time."

“Q？”

......
