In the picture that constituted the Supreme Emperor's last words, the innocent girl of the Nuwa Clan was replaced by some adult researchers who looked indifferent as if they were facing a great enemy. Be it the Pangu, the Nuwa Clan, or any other intelligent species, their faces were all covered in a thick layer of ice, as if they were hiding all their feelings behind the thick ice.
It was not until this moment that Li Yao realized something very strange.
As far as he could see, all the primeval species who established laboratories in the primeval relics had sealed at least seventy percent of their feelings.
Perhaps, only in such a way could they bear the endless bizarre, unbelievable mysteries and fears in the primeval relics, right?
If they had normal feelings, when they realized that almost a hundred powerful species that were no weaker than the Pangu civilization had perished and been completely obliterated billions of years ago, and that even they might follow in the footsteps of their predecessors, they would've gone mad a long time ago, and no research could progress at all.
Only the girl, perhaps because she was too young, could still show some normal feelings. It was probably why she was particularly close to the Supreme Emperor.
Then, the picture flashed, and the researchers performed all kinds of intense and destructive experiments on the golden meatball appeared.
The researchers stimulated the defense ability of the golden meatball with intense electric arcs, tested the self-healing ability of the golden meatball with highly toxic and corrosive liquids, and even intentionally did not provide any nutrition to the golden meatball for a long time in order to test its tolerance limit.
It seemed that they did not want the Supreme Emperor inside the golden meatball to be born at all.
Such treatment that was full of wariness, hostility, and even malice naturally raised the Supreme Emperor's resistance.
In the next picture, a tall member of the Pangu Clan collapsed on the ground outside of the crystal tower, his entire head exploding. Blood and cooling liquids splashed all over the ground.
The shocked researchers were everywhere. Although they had sealed most of their feelings, they could not stop their uncontrollable fear of the golden meatball.
"I killed a researcher."
The grave keeper's voice was both calm and cold as he said, one word after another, "The guy was a geneticist and a pharmacist. He was best at cracking the pieces deep inside the gene strands with natural and artificial poisons. He injected almost a hundred kinds of venoms into my fetus to test my self-healing and immunity abilities. He even tried to implant a seal into my gene strands, which was a gene fragment that was filled with his commands. After I was really born, if necessary, my body would automatically secrete all kinds of hormones and synthesize a fatal poison with his telepathic thought, and I would be killed by him.
"This was one of the seals that the primeval civilizations came up with to contain me and all mankind.
"It was not the most effective seal, but it was indeed the most painful one. I was almost killed by his drugs many times, only to be saved by his antidote. In some sense, when I was dying, my head was indeed full of bizarre illusions, as if the past billions of years ago were flashing by in a flash, only to be stolen by him without leaving anything behind.
"In most cases, I don't hate what the researchers do. After all, most of the experiments cause me very little pain. Also, I can read a lot of the mysteries deep in my genes through these experiments and get to know myself better.
"But the researcher's methods are too painful. I don't really hate him. I just want to get rid of this miserable state. Plus, I'm separated from my only friend. My heart is filled with disappointment and anxiety again, and I just want to vent my feelings without restraint.
"Therefore, when he walked to me with the syringe that was filled with venom again, I gathered all my strength and performed a tiny 'push' in his brain.
"It was hard to explain what the so-called 'push' was. It was like an upgraded version of hypnosis. After scanning with my telepathic thoughts, I could scan the operation of his brain clearly. I could even influence a certain part of his brain tissue to make a certain decision. Then, as long as I squeezed it in my telepathic thoughts, I would be able to influence his decision.
"I hoped that, no, I ordered him to inject the venom into himself.
"To be honest, I did not intend to kill him because I knew that every time he prepared a venom, he would prepare an antidote at the same time. After all, they only wanted to stimulate my genetic memories with the venom and test my self-healing and immunity. They did not really want to kill me. The antidotes in the past had all kinds of side effects, and the detoxification process was quite painful, but they were all amazingly effective when it came to reviving the dead.
"Therefore, I believed that even if he injected the venom into himself, he would be able to save himself with the antidote immediately. At most, he would suffer a little.
"But out of my expectation, my 'push' greatly shocked the Pangu researcher. Subconsciously, he activated his every brain cell to the maximum and gathered all his brainwaves and mental power to resist me.
"For me, mental resistance of such a level was nothing more than a game. I increased the power of 'push' indifferently, but the guy's eyes were wide open, and every inch of his skin was red. His face was like a cracked ice shell, and he couldn't have been more frightened. The wrinkles on the back of his head were spurting out hot streams. In the end, before the other researchers realized what was going on, his entire head completely exploded.
"I've made a huge mistake.
"Or rather, the abilities and terrifying potentials that I presented were too powerful for the Pangu civilization to suppress in the regular ways. They decided to abort the research project and cast me into a super long-term hibernation state. Thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years … or maybe forever, until they made progress in their studies in other fields and were confident that they could absolutely control me. Then, they unfroze me for new studies.
"Regarding the outcome, I had no room to resist at all.
"At that time, I was just a tiny fetus after all. However many mysteries were hidden deep inside my genes, there was still nothing that I could do without nutrition, energy, and a fleshly body. It was one thing to hypnotize an unsuspecting researcher, but it was another thing entirely to hypnotize a hundred specialists of mental warfare who were highly vigilant and had all kinds of magical equipment such as' brainwave amplifiers'. The latter was a hundred times more difficult.
"Even though I knew that they had injected the hibernation drugs and all kinds of bizarre nutrition drugs around me and turned the crystal tower that contained me into an enormous, translucent amber, there was nothing that I could do.
"My sea of consciousness, which had been full of vitality and surging tides, gradually calmed down and solidified.
"The range and pathways that I could perceive around me were slowly shrinking and dispersing, too.
"Earlier, I could sense at least dozens of visible, invisible, and high-frequency spiritual and magnetic waves within hundreds of meters. I could hear the heartbeats, blood flow, and brainwaves of countless researchers. However, the glamorous brilliance and noises were all taken away, and drowsiness surged up uncontrollably like a thick black tide, covering the golden ball of flesh with a black membrane.
"Originally, I should've fallen asleep just like that. Perhaps, I would never wake up again.
"But right then, deafening noises and earth-shaking explosions echoed outside the laboratory. Even though I was about to hibernate, I could sense the intense, pungent air of slaughter.
"Since I had been injected with a lot of hibernation drugs and completed 95% of the hibernation program, there should be no more trouble. All the researchers ignored me and ran out.
"After an unknown amount of time, my friend ran in in a hurry and lunged at the crystal tower that sealed me.
"Her body was stained with blood, and she was covered in thick smoke. She looked panicked and out of her wits.
"She told me that all the researchers of the Pangu, the Nuwa, and other races living in the ancient ruins had been betrayed by the people outside.
"Just like they were scared of the 'true human beings' of the ancient era, the people of the Pangu civilization outside were scared of them too. They were scared of them, who had studied the mysteries of the ancient era day and night and mastered the remarkable technology and ancient magical equipment. The people outside demanded that they hand over all their research files and the war machines that they had excavated. They even asked them to teach the people outside how to use war machines such as the 'space knights'.
"However, those were just excuses.
"My friend told me that her people had already launched a protracted civil war outside the ancient ruins. The civil war almost destroyed the entire Pangu civilization, as well as the Pangu, the Nuwa Clan, the Zhurong Clan, the Gonggong Clan, the Kuafu Clan, the Houyi Clan … All the beautiful feelings and moral laws in the hearts of the primeval carbon-based intelligent races.
"Even though the two parties in the civil war had reached a dead end and were unable to move at all like two vipers biting each other's weakness, they would rather die together than let go at the same time.
"In desperation, both parties focused their eyes on the primordial relics. They both wanted to rope in the specialists and researchers in the primordial relics as their 'secret weapons'. At the same time, they were afraid that the non-combatants, who were relatively innocent and gullible compared to the soldiers and politicians, would be roped in by the enemy's camp. If that were the case, they would rather take action first and destroy all the specialists and their research results!
"It sounds rather unbelievable, but war is the most unreasonable thing in the first place. The two parties in a frenzy had no concerns at all. They both claimed that they were the real dominators and the rightful heirs of the Pangu civilization, which meant that they had the right to command the people in the ancient ruins. If the specialists and researchers in the ancient ruins disobeyed their orders, they would be traitors to the entire civilization. Of course, they could be punished mercilessly!"
