That was the end of the experiment log.
Underneath it was a letter Gao Ye had written to Meng Chao.
[Meng Chao, I told you before that the consciousness transfer experiment that happens once in a blue moon will open up a brand new path for human civilization.
[Now, I'll send you the experiment logs for the past half a month. In the future, I'll send new experiment logs to you from time to time. I hope that you can pass them to the experts in Agricultural University. I believe that they'll be of help to the research they're currently conducting.
[Due to the limitations of the experiment conditions, many of the measurements aren't very accurate. The research methods we can use are also very crude, but at the very least, I obtained the freshest personal experience. This is something I can't get from any high-end lab.
[After getting used to it for half a month, my soul and my brand new body have completely fused together.
[I can clearly sense that my intelligence has increased. Many of the problems I've been thinking about for years have been easily solved. I've overcome a lot of difficulties in life science and come up with a lot of algorithms, formulas, and magnetic field models.
[I'll compress these results and send them to you. If you trust me, you can train as you please. I believe that I can help you reach a brand new realm.
[If you don't trust me, you can pass them to Black Tortoise Zong Yue from Agricultural University's martial arts and life science department. You can train under his guidance.
[Of course there's a price.
[The phantom pain is getting worse.
[My intelligence is also fluctuating. I've gone through five standard IQ tests within twenty-four hours a day, and the difference between my scores is huge. This means that the fusion between my nervous system and my soul isn't perfect. In fact, my body and soul might separate at any moment.
[My memory seems to be getting worse. Every time I wake up from hibernation, there will be around ten minutes where I don't remember much about the world.
[I don't know whether it's because my body and soul aren't compatible or because I've been living alone in the dark and far away from people.
[I might really turn into a monster or even become a demon.
[But that doesn't matter. Before I started the experiment, I already predicted this outcome.
[There were a few times when I woke up from the rotting darkness. In my daze, I thought of myself as a wounded guerrilla who died in the forest.
[Before he was executed by the enemy, this guerrilla left his last words to the people who were watching.
"After we leave, they will build schools and hospitals for you. They will also increase your wages and benefits. This is not because they have found their conscience, nor is it because they have become good people. It is because we have been here.
"Hehe, Guardian Gods and Devils are two sides of the same coin. If there were no Devils, Guardian Gods would never be willing to protect humans.
"Superhumans are the sabers of human civilization. The blood of the strong flows for the weak. What beautiful slogans, but the more beautiful they are, the less likely it is that their dreams will come true for no reason.
"Normal people can't just wait for superhumans to protect and save them.
"If a normal person can't hold a saber tightly in their hands, their chests will definitely be hit by a blade. It might come from a monster or a superhuman.
"Normal people must have the power to become demons. Only then can they keep the superhumans in check and spur them on so that the superhumans can turn these two slogans into reality and create a better future together.
"That's why I'm willing to become a bullet, a saber, and a demon that lingers in the hearts of superhumans.
"Of course, I don't know how long I can maintain my beliefs.
"Perhaps as the phantom pain becomes stronger, the problem of the incompatibility between my soul and my body will erupt. Before long, I will go completely mad and lose myself.
"Before that, I'll send my coordinates and weaknesses to you. Please bring a group of Extraordinaires to destroy me and let them witness my power.
"Take note. Do not come alone, or else, I might kill you.
"Once I die, I hope that you will be in charge of dissection and harvesting. I believe that with your skills, you will definitely be able to decipher all the secrets hidden in my body and help our civilization ride through the waves and continue moving forward.
"Professor Sandworm, 13th of May, Year 56 of the New Era."
The email came to an abrupt end.
Meng Chao sucked in a deep breath, got up, and turned off the light. He sat in the dark for a long time.
He imagined himself as a huge sandworm with a human soul. He lived alone and lurked in the dark to evolve and think.
"The so-called Supernatural Entities …"
Meng Chao mumbled to himself. "Just what are they?!"
…
The next morning.
Meng Chao took Lu Siya's sports car and went to a training camp set up by the abnormal beast research department in the west of the city.
On the way there, Lu Siya was in high spirits.
"Xie Xiaolei is a person with some skills. His guess was right. The higher-ups don't want the matter of Gao Ye turning into a monster to blow up. This will deal a major blow to the biochemical modification faction, and it will also cause the runic symbol machines faction to become restless again, even though they had just stopped fighting.
"If the conflict that was suppressed is ignited again, it won't be good for everyone in Dragon City.
"So, if a company can step forward and clean up the mess that is Spirit Creation Creatures, even if it's a small company like Superstar, the higher-ups will still support it with everything they have.
"I think that Xie Xiaolei's suggestion is very attractive and practical. Let's not talk about his skills. At the very least, he's a general who has been through many battles in the business world.
"Superstar doesn't have any people who are good at operations, right? Forget about your father, Qin Hu is just an amateur. He won't be able to expand his company if he relies on his sense of brotherhood.
"If Xie Xiaolei is in charge of Superstar's operations, I believe that within a few years, it won't be a problem for the company to expand by ten times its original size.
"Of course, you, your father, and Qin Hu might not be able to control such an ambitious veteran in the business world. If we're the slightest bit careless, we might end up inviting a wolf into our home, and he might end up taking over our company.
"So, it'll depend on whether you're confident in yourself. If you're really afraid that you won't be able to suppress Xie Xiaolei, I don't mind taking over Spirit Creation Creatures.
"Hey, I've been talking for a long time, but you've been propping up your cheeks and looking out the window with a contemplative expression. You look like you're deep in thought, but also melancholy. Are you even listening to me?
"Meng Chao, I've noticed that you're becoming more and more impudent lately. Even if our employment relationship has long since been terminated, I'm still a few years older than you. I can be considered your older sister, right? What's with your attitude?!"
Meng Chao finally looked away.
He pointed outside the window and said, "Look there."
Lu Siya was a little stunned.
She looked outside the window and noticed that the glass walls of the skyscrapers on both sides of the road formed huge screens.
On the screens was a huge motion advertisement created by the Supernatural Tower.
The screen flashed, and a veteran hunter with a full beard appeared. He was fighting fiercely against a monster in the depths of the wild.
When the hunter fought bravely and finally ended the monster's life with one slash, he turned his head around and showed his pearly white teeth at the screen. He smiled and said, "I'm a superhuman!"
The screen flashed, and the scene changed to that of a power plant. The flames in the huge furnaces seemed to have a life of their own, and they danced fiercely. The unstable and rampaging fire-type crystals could only be turned into electricity after the superhumans' vitality magnetic fields were used to suppress them. Only then could they be turned into electricity and be sent to all the households.
The superhumans who worked hard had their faces blackened by the smoke from the flames. They faced the camera and smiled. "I'm a superhuman!"
The screen flashed again, and this time, it changed to that of an operating theater.
The doctor had his eyes shut and was mumbling something. Dozens of lancets, hemostatic forceps, suturing machines, and all sorts of surgical instruments surrounded him. After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and said calmly, "I'm a superhuman."
Next, a few more scenes appeared. All of them were superhumans fighting hard in various fields.
In the end, two lines of words appeared on the screen.
Superhumans are the sabers of human civilization.
The blood of the strong flows for the weak.
"Lately, the Supernatural Tower has been putting up more advertisements. They keep showing these two slogans on the streets and alleys all day long."
Lu Siya cast Meng Chao a strange glance. "What's wrong? Is this the first time you're seeing them?"
"Of course not. The television and livestreaming platforms often show promotional videos related to these two slogans. The Supernatural Tower even put these two slogans on their banners. They're all over the city, so it's impossible for them not to see them."
Meng Chao paused for a moment. "I just want to ask, do you believe in these two slogans?"
Lu Siya snickered.
Meng Chao frowned. "What do you mean? You don't believe in these two slogans and think that they're lies?"
"I didn't say that. Don't wrong me," Lu Siya said.
"It's not that I don't believe in these two slogans, but …"
"But what?" Meng Chao asked.
Lu Siya thought about it and said, "Let's put it this way. Have you ever seen the Supernatural Tower or the Survival Committee putting up advertisements and banners on the streets that say 'the sun is round'?"
Meng Chao frowned. "Of course not. What kind of question is that?"
"That's right. The government will definitely not shout slogans like 'the sun is round', because this is an obvious truth. You can see it when you look up," Lu Siya continued.
"Then, have you ever seen the Supernatural Tower or the Survival Committee say things like 'hot-blooded young men must chase after beautiful and rich girls'?"
"…"
Meng Chao said. "No."
"That's right. They don't, and it's impossible for them to do so. There's no need for them to do so, because even without the government's promotion, hot-blooded young men will definitely chase after beautiful and rich girls as long as it's possible. There's no need for them to get excited or shout slogans," Lu Siya said.
"Do you understand now? Obvious truths like 'the sun is round' don't need to shout slogans. Things like chasing after beautiful and rich girls don't need to shout slogans either. So, do you think I believe in the two slogans the government is promoting?"
Meng Chao sighed. "You don't believe them."
"Wrong. I believe them."
Lu Siya smiled slyly. "As long as I believe in these two slogans, more superhumans will gradually believe in them. And once most of the superhumans believe in these two slogans, it won't be important whether I believe them or not, understand?"
Meng Chao snorted coldly and looked away.
It was to hide the fact that he did not understand what Lu Siya meant.
The sports car stopped in front of a gray twenty-story office building in the west of the city.
The sign in front of the building said: Monster research center, statistics center.
Hidden behind the seemingly normal sign was the training camp of the abnormal beast research department.
