Chapter 31: My dear students, the times have changed!

T01 World District

Wise Man Planet (Mini/Alteration),

It was originally a blue planet with golden patterns.

But now, an unusual pale color pervades the entire planet, looking like distorted, sickly skin texture.

One could clearly perceive the slow decline of the planet's vitality.

Every corner of the planet is patrolled by mutated monsters all the time.

Under the supervision of Ability Users, mutated monsters faithfully seek out surviving humans, killing or mutating them.

Within a city full of dust, gloom, and collapsed steel-concrete buildings, there are quite a few surviving humans underground.

"No noise is allowed; if not necessary, refrain from making any sound when outside!"

"Public spaces prohibit excessive movements!"

"Everyone must clean themselves before leaving the room!"

"Shielding Clothes must be worn when going outside!"

"Mutated monsters patrol the city above! Be careful! Be careful! Be careful!"

Bloody red taboo signs filled the underground refuge.

There were only a few humans in the base with the freedom to move...

Each of them wore a dark silver hooded cloak that covered their entire body.

These Shielding Clothes could block the natural biological signals emitted by the human body, causing the mutant monsters' mutating organs to "malfunction".

Thick soundproof materials covered the base's ground and dome.

Most humans had a white Destiny Intelligence Bone on their foreheads, which could record and deduce information.

They were ordinary humans.

There were also humans with noble bloodlines, or exceptional talents, whose Wisdom Bone abilities were stronger. They had golden Destiny Intelligence Bones instead of white ones on their foreheads,

"Has today's Nutrient Paste and water been delivered to every human's shelter?"

"It has been."

"The Nutrient Paste quota has been reduced by 3.78% again, are there any abnormal emotions among the survivors?"

"Most have none, for the few who express emotions, I have already operated the shelter system to monitor their rooms closely."

"Good, today you can follow me into the Laboratory."

"Yes, Doctor."

A group of humans with different white and gold Destiny Intelligence Bones formed a circle, the weak fluctuations emanating from their Wisdom Bones transmitted information rapidly through space.

They were the managers of this human shelter.

The Doctor and his students.

The Doctor walked in front, the Destiny Intelligence Bone on his forehead flickering slightly,

"Sky Eye Robot has detected traces of mutated monsters patrolling the shelter recently..."

He initially didn't want his students to be exposed to the core secret he hid so early.

But now the situation is getting more severe, he has no choice but to do so.

Upon unlocking a series of tightly sealed doors, the students became more curious about the Doctor's hidden secret.

In this mutated and sick post-apocalyptic world, only with enough energy could survivors stay alive.

Tight security, meanwhile, implied huge energy consumption.

On a deeper level, even in this energy-scarce mutated world, the Doctor would rather waste a significant amount of energy to lock up his secret.

The Doctor, being much more intelligent than his students, was aware of the impact of his actions, which meant that this secret was far beyond their imagination.

Even more terrifying than researching mutated monsters.

Finally, they arrived at the last door, where an array of massive lethal weapons was activated, coldly aiming at them.

After recognizing the Doctor's biological information and Destiny Intelligence Bone on his forehead, the weapons stopped, and the system opened the door—

What appeared before them were numerous research chambers made of Crystallized Glass.

And within those chambers were naked, mutated humans with broken Destiny Intelligence Bones on their foreheads!

Upon seeing, hearing, smelling, and sensing the presence of humans, all the mutated humans immediately fell into endless madness, violently slamming against the glass that could not be shattered even by fission bullets.

They viewed these humans, sharing the same blood with them, as mortal enemies branded deep within their genes!

"This..."

"Human experimentation!?"

"Doctor, you... have violated international conventions, you're actually researching Wise Men!"

"Turns out it's true..."

"This deformed body... it's too perfect."

Different attitudes could be heard from the students, excited, curious, indifferent, and even infatuated...

However, the doctor closed the laboratory door without any hesitation.

In front of the students' gaze, he took off the hood of his Shielding Clothes, revealing two cold and ruthless eyes, one larger than the other. He stared at the students intently, his voice cold,

"International conventions?"

"My dear students, where is the international community now?"

"Human research?"

"What's wrong?"

"As researchers, haven't any of you secretly researched the Wisdom Bone of Wise Men in private? Haven't you ever fantasized about conducting human experimentation?"

"Open your foolish, ignorant eyes and look at everything before you!"

"Put down your ignorant and backward, self-enclosed thoughts. This is the end of the world already!"

"My dear students, the times have changed!"

"For the survival of Wise Men, put aside your shitty ethics and morality, so what if we do!"

The doctor's words left the excited students speechless.

Even some students had begun to fantasize about obtaining partial research rights and starting experiments happily.

"Doctor, then these..."

A leading student stepped forward and asked respectfully,

"How did you obtain these experimental subjects?"

"I trapped and captured them, as well as some death row inmates, made by my own hands." The doctor was somewhat satisfied with the students' reactions and adaptability.

Perhaps there was no need for adaptation at all.

The previous debate was just a necessary performance for both parties to maintain a little "dignity."

He continued,

"I had no choice but to lift the ban and let you all participate."

"It's because there's a core experiment too important, I'm overwhelmed, and I need other experiments to be conducted simultaneously. Even with all of you involved, it might barely be enough."

As he said this, the doctor led the way in front, and the Wisdom Bone in the forehead of the Wise Men test subjects gradually changed from white to gold.

But upon arriving at the core, what shocked all the Wise Men was that there was a boy with a white Wisdom Bone in the laboratory.

And he didn't look insane at all!

Looking at the boy's face, some Wise Men who paid close attention to the news already had some guesses in their hearts and hesitated to ask,

"Doctor, this is...?"

"That's right, he's Elliot Carlton's child..."

"The child of a legendary genius who could leave his name in the entire history of Wise Men!"

"The large Spirit Collider was invented by his father!"

"With his father as a witness, even though he only has a white Wisdom Bone, he is definitely extraordinary."

The doctor spoke with a somewhat fanatical tone,

"And in fact, it is so."

"After encountering the altering contamination, he didn't become completely contaminated and turned into a loyal servant of those Ability Users!"

"Even though he displayed early symptoms of contamination, he still retained his independent personality and intelligence!"

"Under such a contaminating factor that could contaminate a planet, keeping his independent personality and still being a White Bone Wise Man..."

"This is simply a miracle."

"And our main research object is him!"

It seemed as if the boy sensed something and opened his confused, numb eyes.

In these dark days, he had experienced tortures so intense that even the devils living in hell couldn't imagine!
