The men and women in the glass vessels all looked to be in their early twenties.
Judging from the appearance and characteristics, they are most likely local people and civilians in the Empire where the sun never sets.
The consciousness and bodies of these people were forcibly stripped off, and their bodies were soaked in nutrient solution. However, their consciousness was imprisoned in the underground laboratory of this attic, and their state was between the edge of life and death.
It can be said that you cannot live without dying.
Raising his hand to touch the glassware in front of him, Zhao Tianyi walked slowly down the long aisle.
His eyes were always staring at these test subjects who were worse than dead, and a strange light kept blooming in his pupils.
"Finally, I started to look forward to it."
Carefully examine the various scientific research equipment in front of you.
Zhao Tianyi's brain was running rapidly, frantically calculating the feasibility and purpose of these experiments.
"It's not just as simple as the soul-flesh separation test, the purpose of doing this should be more ambitious..."
Raise your hand to support your chin
Zhao Tian couldn't stop mumbling to himself: "Are you studying the special characteristics of the subconscious, or are you trying to break through the limits of the biological body?"
"No, it doesn't seem to be the case..."
He shook his head silently.
Zhao Tianyi's eyes suddenly widened, he lowered his voice and said excitedly: "There is no mistake, it is for evolution. The ultimate purpose of these experiments is to allow creatures to achieve self-evolution in desperate situations!"
Take a quick look at the many high-end testing equipment around you.
Zhao Tianyi pondered for a moment, then showed a rare smile, and his whole body could not stop trembling silently due to excitement.
"You have done so many things, but do you just want to be the only one who exists forever?"
Suddenly waved.
The body suspended in mid-air disappeared fleetingly, and Zhao Tianyi rushed forward along the rows of glassware toward the deepest point.
"What a pity, Nakayama Takeshi..."
There was a strange light in his eyes.
Looking at an oval container not far away that was larger than other vessels, floating inside was the head of the "Chosen One".
"If you want to truly gain eternal life, the first thing you must do is to abandon the most basic biological sensibilities, greed, anger, ignorance, love, hate, and resentment. These things are the key to making human beings truly unable to escape and gradually aging."
Continuously trample in the void.
With a strong and graceful figure, he jumped suddenly and landed in front of the head of the "Chosen One".
Still sucking the lollipop.
Zhao Tianyi slowly raised his head. The cross pattern on his forehead was almost the same as the mark of "The Chosen One" in the vessel.
"You will never be able to obtain eternal life, because you have too many obsessions, your self-awareness is not pure enough, and you are still influenced by the emotions in human nature. Even if... those emotions are negative, you will still Become a yoke that binds you.”
Anger, greed, bloodlust, even selfishness and extreme fear of death itself.
This is the complex emotion that Takeshi Nakayama can derive from being an ordinary person.
If you want to gain an eternal life and become the only eternal true god in the legend, you must break away from these most basic emotional categories.
God, high above.
How could there be so many troubles and sorrows? If you can't do it, you are not worthy of being called a god, but just a powerful mortal.
"However, these hundreds of years of research and experimentation are not all in vain."
Open your palms.
Zhao Tian expressionlessly stretched out to the terminal console of the large machine on the side. A translucent ripple flowed out from between his fingers, slowly seeping into it like mercury.
"I will inherit this knowledge and data..."
He chewed the lollipop in his mouth.
Zhao Tianyi's eyes were deep and he said as usual: "In your place, I will eventually become the only one in the legend!"
The pupils of the eyes flickered, and the light flowed endlessly.
In an instant.
Massive amounts of test data poured into Zhao Tianyi's brain like a tide through mental power.
...
same moment.
Located on the ground square outside the "Tianshu Tower", a shocking battle has already begun.
In the sea of fire, countless buildings collapsed.
A large number of tanks were destroyed, and many spacecraft wreckage fell directly into the surrounding residential buildings. There was an endless stream of ruins.
"Young man, why are you doing this?"
Suspended in the sky above the "Tenshou Tower".
Mitsuru Haruki's body was filled with brilliance, and three magatama lines were slowly rotating around him. A few samurai night watchmen gathered around him, their expressions deep and full of vigilance at all times.
"I came all the way from Kyoto here in an attempt to challenge the authority of my Mitsuru family in Sakurai County. Now I am facing enemies from both sides. If I continue, I will only end up with a miserable defeat in the end."
Narrow your eyes.
Haruki Mitsuru smiled coldly and said hypocritically: "Why don't you give up resistance and return to my "Sakurai County" sect. I promise with my personality that I will never continue to embarrass you and your subordinates."
Stretching out his palm in the air, Mitsuru Haruki asked tentatively: "How?"
Still maintaining the trinity's combat form, Kondo Rintaro and the three hall masters behind him were already covered in wounds.
Although it was not life-threatening, in just a few minutes, facing the frenzied sniping attacks of an entire "Military Sword" family alone was really exhausting for them.
In Mitō Haruki's eyes, the four of them are just a group of arrogant gang members.
I was lucky enough to defeat the "Zhongshan Group", so I dared to come here to show off my power.
Only Rintaro Kondou knew in his heart that all this was just to protect Xue Yun and Zhao Tianyi in the "Tianshu Pavilion". It was a plan they had planned in advance.
As for the gentle-looking family head in front of him, he is not really a magnanimous gentleman.
The other party's intentions are obvious.
It's nothing more than a trick to trick powerful enemies into surrendering. Once the people of the "Black Dragon Society" give up resistance, the fate that awaits them will be a hundred times more miserable than dying in battle.
"Old guy, do you really think we are three-year-old children?"
Grinning.
Kondo Rintaro shook his head silently and said in a deep voice: "We have killed so many of your troops, and we have almost wiped out your Mitato family's nest. Will you let us go so easily?"
Looking around, the city was already in a mess.
Except for the "Tenshu Tower" which was tightly protected by Haruki Mitsuru, almost half of the buildings within a one kilometer radius were destroyed.
"Haha, what's there to worry about?"
Mitsuru Haruki spread out his arms and said nonchalantly: "They are just ordinary houses. It's just that they collapsed and were damaged. There will always be people to rebuild them. As long as the roots of my Mitsuru family are still there, the mere untouchables will be there again." Why bother?"
He pondered for a moment.
Haruki Mitsuru raised his eyebrows and continued: "In comparison, I appreciate talents like you more. If you can use them for me, even if you destroy an entire city, I can build a bigger one!"
To be fair.
Haruki Mitsuru really didn't take the people under his control seriously. In his heart, their life and death didn't matter at all. The so-called population was just the material used to fill the labor force.
No matter how many people die, as long as a few years pass, new untouchables will be born like mushrooms after rain. There is nothing wrong with treating them as resources for sustainable growth.
Sighed softly.
Rintaro Kondou, who also came from a lower class background, couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although he deliberately found the topic in order to delay as much time as possible, the other party's reaction made him extremely disappointed.
The daimyo who guarded one side and the one in power who commanded thousands of people turned a deaf ear to the lives and lives of the people below.
This is so sad and limitless...
Buzz~~~
The two sides are confronting each other.
A strange buzzing sound suddenly rose from the "Tenshu Pavilion" below.
