Zhou Jinru said sincerely: "Rhode Island's research in this area is indeed not as good as Rhine life. I only know that there were humans in the world of Terra."
There was no way around it. After all, there were specialties in the art industry, and the research direction of Rhine Life was originally geared towards human body structure. Otherwise, they would not have been able to come up with such a shocking experimental project as the Balrog Project.
Seria heard something behind Zhou Jinru's words and said angrily: "Doctor, you have a bias in your heart. Not all research projects involve violating the laws of nature."
"Okay, I apologize to you. If you are like this, you must have relevant research results?"
"Um."
Seria leaned against the car door, her silver-white hair still dripping with water, and said slowly: "That happened when I was the director of the Defense Department. I know a researcher who specializes in this area. She talked to me , there is actually no difference between humans in the past and us now.”
Ceria touched her horns: "Whether it's the horns, the tail, or the extra ears on the top of the head, they all seem to be added later and have nothing to do with our essence. Even if our bloodline is very similar to animals, it has nothing to do with it. , the proportion of man and beast is fixed within a very stable value.”
Zhou Jinru asked doubtfully: "Do you have any samples of ancient humans?"
"I don't know, but I am certain that there are still some data left in the ruined cities scattered across the world of Terra. Before our civilization was formed, there was a very high-stakes civilization in this world, and the ruined cities are their legacy."
Zhou Jinru was stunned for a moment: "There's something wrong with what you said. I remember that it was the end-user who built the abandoned city. How come it has turned into another civilization now?"
"Doctor, this is not a contradiction. The terminators are inextricably linked to previous civilizations, and countless centuries have passed since the era of the terminators."
"Okay, go ahead, I'm just curious."
Zhou Jinru's heart was not at peace. In the third message he left, there was a statement asking him to go to Taiyue Base. The name Taiyue Base sounded like the base camp of Taiyue, the Final Product.
Seria didn't care about Zhou Jinru's interruption. She pointed to her tail: "The so-called dragon transformation is to reverse the originally stable ratio of humans and beasts by activating the source stone skills, but for inexperienced people, , this is a very dangerous behavior, because when the proportion is reversed, you need to maintain your sense of autonomy, otherwise it will become a killing machine that does not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy."
Zhou Jinru understood Seria's euphemism. Her subtext was that gaining too much power would lead to the gradual loss of human consciousness, allowing the animal side to dominate oneself.
Unfortunately, Zhou Jinru didn't have relevant data at hand. He could only get a glimpse of it from Seria's description, but it was difficult to understand the principle.
"Like me."
Before she finished speaking, white scales quickly grew on Ceria's face, the nails on her hands became sharp, and at the same time, her eyes transformed into dark golden vertical pupils.
This time, the dragon transformation only lasted a few seconds. After Seria released the state, she looked a little more tired.
"Do you need to spend your life to transform into a dragon?"
"What you did just now is not enough, it only lasts a few seconds, it consumes your physical strength,"
Ceria smiled: "Because of the consumption of life, only dragons have special abilities, and other races don't even have the chance to try. The liberating power of the ghost race is very similar to that of dragon transformation, but in essence, it is different. This I won’t make any further explanations. Doctors can ask Ms. Xingxiong for advice when they have the opportunity in the future.”
Seeing that Seria was already very tired, Zhou Jinru shut up decisively and did not ask any more questions.
…
…
In the quiet Rheinland Institute of Life Sciences, Helmer and three others swiped the card to open the door and hurried inside.
Thanks to their luck, the white-faced owl had just arrived home and saw the fire outside before he had time to rest. When he hurriedly chased him out, he had the entrance card of the institute with him, which was of great use now.
Ifrit supported Hemo and said anxiously: "Sister White-faced Owl, we need emergency medicine."
"No, don't worry. Have you forgotten that I am a medical operator?"
The pale-faced Hemo activated her Origin Stone skills and gave herself a treatment, but this did not change her current situation.
The white-faced owl helped Hermer sit down in the rest area. He looked at the foreign object in her abdomen and couldn't help but sigh.
Having been chased by people from the Integration Movement with no way to go, the three of them jumped off the bridge. Even if they and Ifrit landed in the rubbish heap, there was no accident. However, it was Hemer who was accidentally pierced by construction debris. Entering the abdomen, they were eager to escape, so they helped Helmer back to the institute, because it was difficult for Saint Alar to find enough medical power to treat the wounded.
"Hemo, please stop holding on. A doctor with a doctor's degree cannot heal himself. I'm going to find emergency medicine."
"Can't a doctor heal himself?"
Helmer was stunned. He raised his head and looked at the white-faced owl, his eyes filled with confusion. Why did this sound so weird?
"According to relevant data analysis, there is an 83% probability that the doctor added it when telling the story."
The white-faced owl replied mechanically.
Helmer's hand was covering his abdomen, which was already stained red with his own blood. The researcher whispered: "Maybe the doctor is right. A doctor cannot heal himself. He can always say something amazing."
"Doctor Hemmer, you shouldn't think so much. Ceria is still fighting. She bought us time to escape."
"I don't know, White-faced Owl, are you and I really wrong?"
Helmer was still stuck in the words of Ifrit who was in the Balrog state. The topic that she had avoided talking about for so many years had now become her shackles.
"Hemo, Ceria asked me to protect you. She and I are the only ones with fighting power. I should protect you."
Ifrit came back with the first aid kit, and there was still a little uneasiness on her face. No matter how powerful she was, she could not ignore her age, she was still a child.
"Let me handle it, Eve. Go outside and take a look. Don't wake up the sleeping researchers."
The white-faced owl took the first aid kit and pushed Ifrit out. At this moment, a large group of people came in from outside, and the leader was Seria.
"Ceria?"
exclaimed the white-faced owl.
She also saw Zhou Jinru lying on a stretcher.
"I'm fine, how are you?"
Zhou Jinru hurriedly signaled that he was fine, looking at the first aid kit in the white-faced owl's hand, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
"Eve and I are fine, but Dr. Hemmer needs emergency surgery..."
Seria immediately recommended herself: "I'll do it, I've done surgery, or I can be your assistant."
"I……"
As soon as Wei Feng opened her mouth, Zhou Jinru, who was next to her, grabbed her and whispered: "Try to cooperate with Seria as much as possible."
