In the beginning, after Xiao Ran sensed that the dimensional beast had gradually regained its rationality due to the singing of Sherry Dew and the others, he had the thought of ordering the MS inside to directly behead the dimensional beast, but he hesitated for a moment.
Who was more terrifying between a berserk dimensional beast and a rational dimensional beast? Of course, one didn't need to think too much to get the answer. Of course, the berserk dimensional beast that couldn't be communicated with was more terrifying. However, who was more terrifying between countless berserk dimensional beasts and countless rational dimensional beasts? Perhaps different people would have different answers. For Xiao Ran, the answer was only the latter, especially since these dimensional beasts were originally humans but had now become monsters. They might even have their hands stained with the blood of their loved ones.
For an existence that was once human, perhaps most people would find it difficult to accept such a change after knowing that they had become a monster and could never recover. At that time, no one could guarantee what terrifying things these dimensional beasts, who had awakened their rationality, would do. At the same time, Xiao Ran felt that it was better to let these dimensional beasts, who had no way of turning back, die without knowing anything, than to live in pain for the rest of their lives after awakening their rationality. At least, Xiao Ran found it difficult to accept that he was born as a human but had turned into a beast. Thinking about it, there were definitely many problems.
But it was precisely because of that hesitation that Xiao Ran took the initiative to step forward and use Psychokinesis to contact the dimensional beast that had regained its consciousness. This connection was also sensed by Ingram and Uzzes, who were also Psychics. They also learned that this dimensional beast was actually transformed from a little girl, an ignorant little girl who was at most three years old.
Ingram sighed because he pitied the girl. Uzzes' sneer wasn't directed at the girl, but at the girl's fate that she couldn't control. The weak couldn't resist the fate of the strong.
Xiao Ran could definitely kill a crazy soul without mercy. However, in the face of a child's soul that was as white as paper, Xiao Ran found it difficult to give the order to behead it. However, Xiao Ran would definitely not allow this life that had transformed from a human to a dimensional beast to continue to maintain its consciousness in the extremely important stronghold. Therefore, in the end, Xiao Ran waved his hand and got Ingram to continue injecting the drug into the dimensional beast, causing it to fall into a deep sleep once again.
"If you want to continue the research, don't use this sample." Xiao Ran said to Dilandar after a short silence, and the latter nodded in understanding. The dimensional beast that had regained its rationality and its human soul had awakened, but its body was still that of a dimensional beast. Dilandar didn't want to pursue this philosophical question. Anyway, there were still many dimensional beasts captured, and research materials wouldn't be lacking because of this.
Xiao Ran looked at Ingram and asked, "What's the result of the analysis?"
"The results are out." Ingram pressed a button, and a large virtual screen appeared in front of everyone. Some data and graphs were displayed on it, and there were some special notes on the specific items.
"Regarding the soul, there's no way to read the results with equipment alone, so we can only talk about what can be observed." Ingram walked to the front of the virtual screen and pointed at the content on the screen with his hand. "This curve is the monitoring graph of the special cell activity. From the graph, the cell activity has been continuously rising, but after the few of you started singing, it can be clearly seen that the cell activity began to stagnate, and then a relatively flat line began to slide down. This line continued to accelerate until Miss Freya started her routine. When Miss Sherry Dew started her routine, it fell to the lowest level and fell into silence."
"So far, the cells are still maintaining silence. This is enough to show that the singing has a very strong suppressive effect on the transformation of these cells, but for the time being, we can't confirm whether this suppression is permanent or temporary, so we still need some time to observe."
"In addition to these special cells, the monitoring also shows that under the influence of the song, the energy circulation in the dimensional beast's body will also be sluggish and completely stagnant. The completely transformed genes in the body will be reduced in strength, and the activity of all the cells will also show a corresponding performance, showing a reduction in defense, attack, speed, and other comprehensive weakening of combat strength. It should be because the dimensional beast's body is assimilated and transformed from those special cells, so it will also be affected by the song."
"The overall decline in strength is more than 50%. Whether this ratio is only effective on this type of dimensional beast or all dimensional beasts requires more testing."
"However, I didn't find any signs of the transformed cells being reversed from the monitoring. There were only some small changes in the dimensional beast's head. This change is benign. It's as if the sample's brain was given a brand new power, resulting in some changes. However, it's not a physical or structural change. I speculate that this change is due to the awakening of the soul and spirit. That's why this dimensional beast regained its human rationality in the end."
Ingram paused for a moment, then said, "In terms of the influence, according to the available information, I have roughly sorted out the data. Miss Yao, Miss Makina, and Miss Rena, the suppression of your singing on the dimensional beast is between 23% to 25%. Miss Freya's suppression is between 30% to 33%, Miss Mei Yun's suppression is about 40%, and Miss Sherry Dew's suppression is the highest, reaching 100% of the full value."
"Therefore, Miss Sherry Dew doesn't need to participate in the experiment because there is no need to obtain any useful data from it. However, since all of you are battlefield Valkyries, the more dangerous the situation, the stronger the power you can unleash. Therefore, this data is only limited to reference."
Xiao Ran looked at the Valkyries and the rest. "Then, you will cooperate with the genetic research department."
"We know. Even if Lord Xiao Ran didn't say anything, we would have cooperated fully." Mei Yun glanced at the sleeping dimensional beast, and there was a rare hint of anger in her tone. "I will never forgive you for turning a three-year-old girl into this."
"Okay." Xiao Ran nodded gently and said to Dilandar, Ingram, and Uzzes, "What are you going to do next? All departments will do their best to cooperate and find out more detailed information about these cells as soon as possible. Find out how to destroy them, and even find out if there is a way to reverse them. Find out other ways to suppress them, find out more about them, and find out more about them as soon as possible."
Tillandar and the other two knew the seriousness of the problem, especially the infection and inspection of the cells. It was of utmost importance. There was no room for jokes. It wouldn't be too much even if they transferred all the power of the genetic research department to this project.
After leaving the genetic research department, Xiao Ran didn't head to Law's technical department because the situation there was much more complicated than the genetic research department. After all, the genetic research department had been researching dimensional beasts previously. After having a certain foundation in genetic comparison, it was easier for them to sit down.
On the other hand, Law's body had been destroyed inside and out. It was more troublesome to study it. First, they had to clean it up, then find the equipment that could still operate bit by bit. After that, they had to analyze and repair the wreckage and so on. The situation was much more complicated. It was impossible to obtain anything useful in just a few days.
After returning to the Burning Legion, Xiao Ran immediately got in touch with Earth. The person he contacted was Kane. He also learned about the current situation on Earth through Kane.
The invasion of the dimensional beasts this time was a huge disaster for Earth. From the beginning to the end, Earth had only suffered losses without any benefits. This kind of loss was not considered a loss of military strength. It only included the destruction of cities caused by the invasion of the dimensional beasts and the destruction of the dimensional passageways, the sacrifice of civilians, the changes in the geological environment, and a series of related losses. After all, in the face of this disaster from the beginning, the various countries on Earth did not have the courage and strength to deal with such an incident. It was completely the Burning Legion that took over this battle for them.
It was also because of this that the violent dimensional beast invasion this time had caused a new understanding of the dimensional beasts on Earth. It was no longer just an accident that could be dealt with and thought that they could solve like before. They knew that the situation was serious, but they didn't expect it to be so serious that it wasn't something they could solve at all.
Today, more than 30 dimensional passageways appeared at the same time. Countless dimensional beasts emerged from the passageways, and the place where the battle took place was completely flattened into huge pits. The impact of the battle could even be felt by the entire world, which made many people on Earth anxious.
And Renard, as a representative, also received extraordinary attention. Originally, because of Renard's means, he had already influenced and indirectly controlled many countries, but they were more afraid of Renard. At the very least, they wouldn't rush over. But now, the situation of the dimensional beasts in the closet had made many people aware that those dimensional beasts weren't an enemy that they could fight against with their military strength. Now, they were rushing over to flatter Renard, hoping that Renard would consider helping them guard their countries and protect their own safety. They were simply following Renard's lead. Now, Renard was extremely busy, but the specific arrangements would probably take one or two days to be confirmed.
The impact of the dimensional beast invasion was far more than that, but for the Burning Legion, it was just a battle that had ended. But at the same time, it also brought about some influence on the Burning Legion's control of the world. At the very least, although the Burning Legion that saved the world was mysterious in the eyes of countless people, it had also become the only life-saving straw in their hearts.
In the following time, the Burning Legion's division was completed. The genetic research department and the technical department continued to be busy. Xiao Ran was waiting for good news from both sides. On Earth, due to the silence of the higher-ups day after day, the atmosphere gradually became more tense and worse, almost reaching the level of global martial law.
Suddenly, one day, many countries stood up and announced that the reorganization of the anti-dimensional beast coalition had been completed. Countries would provide more resources and manpower to join the anti-dimensional beast war, and a certain organization that had mastered more advanced technology than Earth by hundreds of years would take the lead to work together to fight against the dimensional beasts.
This so-called certain organization was of course the Amalgam. However, the Amalgam's reputation was indeed terrible, so this time, the name of the organization announced through these countries was completely changed to the Burning Legion. The battleships that appeared on Earth and the mecha that destroyed dimensional beasts were also confirmed to be the mecha of the Burning Legion. Countries were also guiding public opinion, explaining that their transformation fighters, MS, and other technologies were all spread by this organization, and so on. They did their best to promote the reputation of the Burning Legion on Earth.
Then, a small country in Western Europe that was originally not eye-catching suddenly announced its reorganization. It seemed so unimportant in the wave of news created by various countries, but as the First Fleet sent forces to descend on the sky above the country's capital and stationed themselves near the capital, more relevant information was gradually 'leaked'.
It turned out that the Burning Legion had always been the true leader of this country, at least since a long time ago. Therefore, the organization that possessed technology that surpassed this world by hundreds of years was basically this country. Internally, the Burning Legion was essentially the Amalgam, but it had changed its name. Not many people knew about this, and those who knew didn't dare to leak the slightest bit of information. The Burning Legion label was also to provide some convenience and suitable reasons for further control of this world.
Soon, France suddenly announced that it would be incorporated into the small country controlled by the Burning Syndicate, which was unanimously approved by all the members of the parliament. This caused a new wave of protest, especially within France. Many people stood out against the protest, but after the Second Fleet landed in the sky above Paris, the protest inexplicably ended. Those who were against the protest became those who were in favor, and those who were in favor became even more supportive. With such a powerful military force above their heads, it wasn't a threat but a guarantee of safety. The initial anger turned into joy, and the initial shame turned into pride. Because at such a time, nothing was more important than ensuring the safety of one's own life and property.
