"So that's how it is …"
Within a large and spacious laboratory, exclamations of shock and awe continuously spread out. Seizing Seizing
Before them was a large laboratory that was very spacious. There were many sophisticated instruments everywhere, making it look very professional.
In the surroundings, the instruments were still operating, flickering with faint lights.
Such a scene was very rare in these days.
After all, the entire world had fallen into darkness, and the places that originally operated had lost power. Only a few places were not affected.
This place was one of them.
Not only was it not affected, but from the rumbling sounds, one could imagine that the daily consumption of this place was not low.
Within the laboratory, looking at the things in front of her, the girl could not help but look amazed.
"You made all of this?"
The young woman said as she looked at the Aberrations beside Chen Heng.
Hearing the girl's words, the Outlander turned around and looked at her speechlessly. Then, he nodded. "What else?"
"Everything in this place is my work."
"Otherwise, do you think you humans could do all of this under the influence of the Void Power?"
He shook his head and said proudly.
"Is that so?"
The girl instinctively wanted to retort, but she could not deny that the construction of this place was indeed very good.
To be able to build a place like this under the current circumstances, this was indeed a very powerful ability.
"This place was originally a park for you humans, but it was completely abandoned. After I came, I used what was left here to modify it, and it became like this."
The Alien nodded and said with a hint of nostalgia. Thud …
"You're the only one?"
Liu Na asked curiously.
"Originally, there was more than one."
The Alien fell silent for a moment before saying, "In the beginning, I had three companions who came here with the help of the Void Beast's power."
"However, before that, two of them were accidentally infected and had to commit suicide."
"Their corpses are still preserved by me, and I'm preparing to make them into the highest-grade puppets."
"Using corpses as puppets?"
Liu Na frowned, instinctively feeling a little disgusted, "Don't you think it's blasphemy?"
"Don't look at us like you humans …"
The Outlander glanced at her and immediately understood what she wanted to say. He shook his head and said, "Even among you humans, because of your skin color and environment, there are many different customs and habits, not to mention different races."
"To us, the Kars, the best funeral is to turn our corpses into eternal works of art and preserve them forever."
"In the past, we've always done this."
He walked to the side and pulled the curtain to the side, revealing what was behind him.
There were rows of circular containers filled with a unique transparent liquid.
In the two containers at the very front, there were two creatures that looked like Aliens lying inside, staring at them intently.
Their appearance was very similar to the Xenomorphs beside Liu Na. There were only a few minor differences, which couldn't be seen under normal circumstances.
On the surface, if it weren't for the fact that they were in the container, one would have thought that they were still alive.
Looking at this scene, Liu Na could not help but stare blankly for a moment before continuing to look behind.
Behind that, there were rows of other containers.
It was the same round container, but the corpses stored in the container were different.
There were Xenomorphs, other creatures, and even human corpses.
"Humans …"
Looking at this, Liu Na paused before asking with a complicated look, "Those puppets outside were modified by you?"
"That's right."
The Mutant nodded and did not deny it. Instead, he admitted it. "I was the one who did it."
Don't misunderstand.
"Before I modified them, they were already corpses.
"Even if I didn't modify them, they would have long since rotted away.
"Based on what you humans say, I'm just making use of trash."
Looking at the girl, the Outlander explained.
Different creatures had different habits.
For these Xenomorphs, using corpses was a very normal thing.
Originally, the alien did not want to explain anything to Liu Na, but out of consideration for Chen Heng, he decided to explain a bit.
After all, his life was still in Chen Heng's hands.
If he wanted to live, it was best to be a bit more obedient.
Thinking to there, the Outlander turned and looked to the side.
Not too far away, Chen Heng was sitting there, receiving a baptism from some sort of instrument.
It was a special transmission device that could directly transmit knowledge to one's mind, and it was very fast.
However, under normal circumstances, very few people would do this.
After all, the human body was quite fragile, especially the brain.
Using this method to transmit knowledge, if one was not careful, one might end up becoming an idiot.
As such, even among Xenomorphs, very few people would do this.
However, Chen Heng had already been sitting there for many hours.
Moreover, it seemed that his mental state was quite stable and did not seem to be affected at all.
"What a monster …"
Looking at Chen Heng, the Outlander could not help but sigh, not knowing what to say.
"If it was an ordinary person, even us Kals, after receiving this knowledge for so long, our brains would definitely explode and turn into idiots."
Standing there, he could not help but complain.
In actuality, from his personal standpoint, he hoped that Chen Heng would die here.
Before, when Chen Heng had gone up to receive the knowledge, he had almost burst into laughter.
However, soon, he understood what it meant to be a superman.
From Chen Heng's situation, hoping that he would become an idiot like this was not realistic at all.
However, he could not help but sigh. Seizing Seizing
"No matter how you look at it, apart from looking like a human, he doesn't seem like a human at all …"
He looked at Liu Na and could not help but complain.
"Don't look at me."
Meeting the Outlander's gaze, Liu Na shook her head and said, "In actuality, that's what I think as well.
Apart from looking like a human, this fellow doesn't seem like a human at all. "
Thinking back to the time she had spent with Chen Heng, she said this.
Before this, she had spent some time with Chen Heng.
During that time, she had a deep impression of how unique Chen Heng was.
It was as if he was an inhuman being in human skin.
Not only was he incredibly powerful, but he also had the ability to dispel nothingness energy and heal people's injuries.
She had personally seen Chen Heng waving his hand and all of his injuries had been healed; it looked like he was just playing around.
Moreover, he didn't seem to need to eat, drink, or even sleep.
He did not seem to need to do all of the physiological things that humans did.
No matter how she looked at him, he did not seem like a normal human at all.
If it wasn't for the fact that he had been very calm and gentle, she would have thought that he was a mutated beast in human skin.
However, she was certain that Chen Heng was a human.
After all, apart from those strange things, he was not much different from a normal person, and he was quite easy to talk to.
Moreover, as his father's student, Liu Na had seen him a few times in the past.
Even though they had not interacted much, she could still remember what Chen Heng had been like in the past.
At the very least, he had been a normal person in the past.
As for his current appearance, it was most likely because of that unknown power, causing his physiological structure to change.
Liu Na did not dare to be certain and could only guess.
Before this, she could only ponder over the conjectures in her heart by herself.
However, now that she had this alien scientist by her side, she could discuss things with him. Swish.
Even though he could not be trusted, if it was just these questions, they could discuss them.
After all, Liu Na was very confident that as long as Chen Heng stayed here, he would not dare to have any ill intentions.
However, as soon as she voiced out her conjecture, the Aberration in front of her immediately widened its eyes.
"You said that he was just an ordinary human in the past?"
Standing there, the alien's eyes widened, a look of confusion on his face as if he was thinking, "That doesn't make sense …
"Theoretically speaking, the power of nothingness can stimulate the mutation of living beings, causing new changes in living beings. Even the birth of a whole new race is very normal."
"But the situation with his body is still a little too exaggerated …"
The alien shook his head, "Planet Karl was also corroded by nothingness in the past, but even after Planet Karl was completely destroyed, we did not find anything similar.
"If there was, we would not have fallen to such a state …"
He gave a bitter smile as he spoke.
"Then why is it like this?"
Liu Na frowned. She couldn't figure it out no matter how she racked her brains.
"Perhaps it's because you humans are more compatible with nothingness energy …"
The alien looked at Chen Heng before deeply breathing in and saying, "Do you remember that scene from before?
"That scene from before …"
Liu Na felt quite startled before quickly recalling.
The scene of Chen Heng controlling nothingness energy and looking like a god once again appeared in her mind.
In that scene, the nothingness energy that was like poison to ordinary people seemed to madly rush into Chen Heng's body.
However, Chen Heng did not seem to reject it at all and instead absorbed that nothingness energy to strengthen himself.
That scene was still engraved in her mind, and she did not dare to forget it.
"Now that I think about it …"
In front of her, the alien thought for a moment before saying, "Perhaps compared to us Kals, you humans are more compatible with nothingness energy, so it's easier for such existences to be born.
"The reason why we Kals are unable to do it is because we are not compatible enough.
"However … if that's the case …"
He seemed to think of something and a look of excitement appeared on his face, "Perhaps, as long as we pass some special checkpoints and unravel some of the secrets of the mutation process, every human can be like him, using their human bodies to wield terrifying power like mutant beasts.
"Allowing everyone … to wield power like mutant beasts …"
Standing on the spot and hearing these words, Liu Na instinctively felt quite startled and could not help but look forward to it.
She could not help but think back to the terrifying power that Chen Heng had displayed before.
With just a casual strike, he could flatten mountains, and even a forest would be instantly destroyed by him.
Even that terrifying Void Beast was not a match for Chen Heng at all. With just one strike, it was destroyed without leaving a trace.
This terrifying power was almost on par with those mutant beasts. It was so terrifying that it made people feel despair.
It was just that what was different from those mutant beasts was that Chen Heng's power was controllable and could be controlled by him. He could use it as he pleased.
On the other hand, the mutant beasts' power was incredibly violent and would only instinctively destroy everything around them. They could not control it at all.
If everyone could grasp these transformations and become like Chen Heng …
No, they did not need to become like Chen Heng. Just a tiny bit of what he had displayed would be a massive transformation that would have far-reaching effects. Seize, seize.
Thinking to there, Liu Na could not help but look forward to it.
"How about it? Do you want to try it out? "
In front of Liu Na, Alien was also quite tempted. His eyes were burning with passion as he looked at Liu Na and said, "I have quite a good grasp of the mutation of the power of nothingness. As long as you are willing, we can immediately start testing it out."
"You want to use me as a guinea pig?"
Hearing this, Liu Na immediately reacted. Her expression greatly changed, and she looked at the alien with a somewhat hostile gaze.
"You're not willing?"
Seeing Liu Na's reaction, the alien paused for a moment before saying, "That's a bit difficult."
"Apart from you, where else can I find a living human in this world?"
He could not help but scratch his head, feeling quite troubled.
"Speaking of which …"
Hearing the alien's words, Liu Na seemed to think of something and suddenly said, "That layer of forest outside, was it you who set it up?"
"Don't you think too highly of me?"
The alien was still deep in thought. Hearing Liu Na's words, he instinctively waved his hand, "Being able to hide here and successfully create a Void Beast is already the best I can do.
"As for those outside, it has nothing to do with me. They're all natural environments formed by the nothingness energy."
Hearing this, Liu Na frowned for a moment before relaxing her brows.
She had come here once before, exploring this place with Chen Heng's father.
It was just that when they left, they met with an accident.
The place where the accident happened was none other than the black forest on the outskirts of this area.
This was where Chen Heng's father died.
She had thought that everything here was done by a single person.
However, from what the alien said, it did not seem to be the case.
Thinking about it, it made sense.
If the other party was really the culprit behind all these changes, they would not be able to control him so easily.
Looking at it this way, it seemed that the accident they had encountered before had nothing to do with him.
Thinking about this, Liu Na's brows relaxed. Looking at the Alien in front of her, the hostility in her heart lessened.
"Why was your Carl's Planet destroyed?"
Standing on the spot and looking at Chen Heng, who was quietly sitting there, Liu Na thought for a moment before continuing to ask.
Previously, in order to obtain the results of the Alien's research, they had directly come here and did not ask much about anything else.
Now, Chen Heng was receiving the knowledge by the side, and she felt quite bored standing there, so she asked the same question.
"As you can see."
In response to this question, the Alien was silent for a moment, then said, "In the beginning, it was the same as you. Mutant beasts suddenly appeared and wreaked havoc everywhere, forcing us into a corner."
"Your technology is so advanced, but there's no way to get rid of these mutant beasts?"
Listening to the Alien's words, Liu Na was a little confused.
Although she did not understand the level of civilization on Carl's Planet, from the fact that they could use the power of the Void to cultivate Void Beasts and even escape across galaxies to this place, their technology was clearly above human civilization.
Even such a civilization couldn't do anything to those mutant beasts?
"There's no way …"
In response to Liu Na's doubts, the Alien seemed a little helpless. "Just like you, the mutant beasts that appeared on Carl's Planet also have the ability to evolve infinitely.
"They can evolve infinitely through their perception of the environment, making themselves continuously stronger.
"As long as we can't kill them immediately, they'll become stronger and stronger in the future.
"More importantly …"
At this point, the Alien paused, fell silent for a moment, then continued to say, "Actually, at the place of the Cataclysm, we once went all out to kill a mutant beast.
"That time, we succeeded."
"That mutant beast was completely destroyed by us. Not even a single cell was left in its body. It was completely destroyed.
"But then, after a few days, it appeared again …
"And it looked exactly the same as before."
Standing on the spot, the Alien recalled the past. At this time, there was a rare look of fear on his face. "These mutant beasts seem to be immortal.
"Even if we kill them, they can revive through the power of the Void …"
