Chapter 318: Birth of the Second Supernatural Entity!

Meng Chao’s pupils narrowed to the size of a needle tip.

Before Gao Ye could say the last word, Meng Chao fired his chain sabers at the speed of lightning. He accurately cut off all the cables connected to Gao Ye’s helmet.

The ends of the cables let out crackling sparks and fell on the floor like dead snakes.

Meng Chao sighed in relief.

Gao Ye’s smile just became brighter.

“Did you think that I would use this superbrain helmet to transfer my consciousness outward? Was that why you have been eyeing the cables above my head all this while? Were you ensuring that they don’t release any powerful spirit energy ripples? Was that why you patiently stalled for time with me? Was that it?” Gao Ye asked faintly. “But how could I place the real equipment to transfer my consciousness in such an obvious place?”

Meng Chao had a bad feeling. He gritted his teeth and strode forward. He did not care about Gao Ye’s disability and kicked the wheelchair over.

Gao Ye fell on the floor like a torn ragdoll, which revealed numerous rows of cables connected to his spine.

These cables went into the wheelchair, and through it extended to a corner of the lab with really messy cables.

Meng Chao could sense powerful spirit energy fluctuations from them.

It was as if waves of spirit energy were being transferred from Gao Ye’s body to some part of the lab.

Meng Chao yanked off all the cables while saying, “What are these?!”

“It’s useless,” Gao Ye said calmly. “I’ve been talking to you for a really long time, and I was using the consciousness transferring equipment all the time. Now, we’re at the last step. I just completed it through the wireless network. Even if you disassemble the entire lab, you won’t be able to stop me.”

Meng Chao’s skin crawled. He remembered the Supernatural Entity from his nightmares and fear entered his voice. “Y-You’re mad! You turned yourself into an experimental subject!”

“The transferring of consciousness is extremely dangerous, and the research itself breaks ethics and morals. If I don’t dare to become an experimental subject, how would I have the dignity to look for volunteers to conduct the experiment?” Gao Ye asked faintly. “It’s only by turning myself into the first experiment that I will be able to gather a large amount of data, and the experiment will become more stable and safe. Then, I can progress to the next stage of the research.

“I was going to use the large amount of resources from Spirit Creation Creatures, which would have helped me complete the research wearlier and in a smoother fashion.

“But now, I have no other choice. Some elites have entered the company. There are at least three Heaven Realm elites among them. They’re the reinforcements you have been waiting for, right?

“I’m happy that I was able to meet a bosom buddy like you, Meng Chao, but I’m afraid that our conversation will have to come to an end for the time being. I believe that we will have a chance to meet again. At that time, I will definitely introduce my friends to you.”

Gao Ye extended a skeletal arm and gave Meng Chao a wave.

Meng Chao’s skin crawled. He yanked Gao Ye up from the floor.

Gao Ye did not have all limbs, so he was light and did not have much weight. He was like a skeleton with only skin covering it.

The light in his single eye quickly faded away along with the soul behind it.

“No...”

In Meng Chao’s eyes, Gao Ye was dying, and he did not know how he should keep the last bit of the man’s soul in his body.

Before he could think of a way, the light in Gao Ye’s single eye completely disappeared.

His breathing and heartbeat stopped completely and his vitality magnetic field vanished like a candle in a storm. Even if Meng Chao grabbed his shoulders tightly, all he would be holding was just a cold corpse.

Behind the strengthened window, the Ultimate Sandworm gradually woke up in the huge hatching pond.

Countless monitors screeched, and the researchers cried out in surprise. The red light signalling high security alert flashed nonstop. In the midst of chaos, the Ultimate Sandworm yanked off the dozen steel cables restraining it and raised its head like an aquatic dragon.

Meng Chao could clearly see a bump forming quickly behind the slits on its head.

Then, with a loud bang, the air that was sucked into the bump gushed out after it went through super high compression.

It blared in an airtight space like a huge horn. The airflow tore through the air at nearly sonic speed and destroyed the eardrums of the dozen researchers in the room. It also shattered the strengthened window in front of Meng Chao.

He felt as if two burning drills had been stabbed into his eardrums, and they reduced his ear canals, cochlea, auditory nerves, and brains into mush.

When he reached out to touch his ears, he felt blood.

Before he could focus, the second attack came charging at him.

This time, the Ultimate Sandworm did not use a soundwave. Instead, it used a mind attack that was so vicious Meng Chao could not block it.

The creature’s mental power was like an avalanche. It turned into visible ripples that rammed into the brains of researchers and Meng Chao.

The researchers cried out in pain. They rolled on the floor while cradling their heads.

Meng Chao could sense all his brain cells crackling as if they were popcorn, and his mental strength index started plummeting.

“Do you remember our conversation about whether monsters can possess intelligence?”

A dense row of small holes appeared under the Ultimate Sandworm’s slits.

Air gushed out of those holes and caused the flesh membranes inside the hole to vibrate.

Due to the speed, strength, and vibrations of the air flow, the Ultimate Sandworm could release sounds that were similar to human speech.

But there was a huge difference between “speaking” through holes and speaking in the manner of a real human.

This was similar to mixing a monster’s roars and the whines of a pipe organ. It sounded crazy, calm, evil, but also holy. It sounded like the sound of a demon.

“Mammals have myelin sheaths, which are similar to an information highway. Octopi and squids make their nerve bundles longer and thicker, which turns them into the smartest creatures in the ocean. While annelids like sandworms are primitive creatures, they have individual nervous systems in each section of their bodies. Even if you cut off a part of them or destroy their central nervous system, they will continue to live and fight.”

The demonic voice continued coming out of the Ultimate Sandworm’s holes. Gradually, they turned into Gao Ye’s voice. “If you combine the three completely different nervous systems together and create nerve bundles that are as thick as those of giant squids but have the myelin sheaths that are similar to those found on human nerves while also using multiple nervous systems connected to each other, would you be able to use them as a vessel to carry the human soul in place of a human brain?

“Would you maybe be able to reach the secrets hidden in the depths of the human soul and awaken super intelligence? Now, I will finally have the chance to personally experience it and find the answer.”

Meng Chao took a gulp. It was hard for him to do anything.

He saw that the progress for the Mystery of the Supernatural Entities jump to 13%

He now had a general idea about the super Giant Sandworm which had wreaked havoc underground while possessing super high intelligence. The identity of another one of the Nine Great Supernatural Entities had come into his possession.

The current events shed light on many of his questions. After all, no matter how wild Giant Sandworms evolved and mutated, it was impossible for them to gain intelligence equivalent to human intelligence.

But this Supernatural Entity was originally a human. It was Gao Ye!

“You...”Meng Chao knelt in front of the shattered glass and lifted Gao Ye’s original body high up. He shouted, “Your body is already dead! You can’t come back anymore! Is it worth it?!”

“Indeed, the me of yesterday is dead. But I have gained a new life today.”

The Ultimate Sandworm (Gao Ye!) grinned, which bared its fang-covered mouth. It was an attempt to put up a human-like smile, but it just made him look more terrifying. “Thank you, Meng Chao. I was never able to make the decision and get rid of the human body, the shell that was incomplete, weak, and constantly tormented me with pain.

“Even though it had multiple flaws, at the end of the day, it was the pillar of support I was born with. However, it was also the final obstacle I faced on the brand new path I wanted to walk.

“Thank you for helping me come to my decision. I hope we meet again!”

Gao Ye opened his mouth to the limit.

The researchers watched it in dumbfounded shock. Some had yet to snap out of the shock from hearing Gao Ye’s demonic voice, while others started screaming hysterically. They grabbed their companions and started fleeing in all directions.

Gao Ye ignored them and directed his mouth at the ground.

The bottom of the hatching pond was made of loose earth, because it was the most suitable environment for Giant Sandworms to grow and move around.

The Ultimate Sandworm was even larger than the super Giant Sandworm Meng Chao had fought in Trash Site 4. Hence, its ability to eat earth and dig tunnels was also ten times better.

In an instant, half of its body disappeared into the earth.

With the squirming and expansion as well as contraction of its muscles, the sandworm could send out a lot of the earth it ate through the excretory hole at the end of its body. It turned the center of the lab into a mess.

Meng Chao’s mental strength index finally returned to normal.

With a growl, he threw his chain sabers forward.

One of the chains had flames around it, and the other had electricity. They sank deep into the Ultimate Sandworm (Gao Ye)’s body.

Unfortunately, Gao Ye was no longer the handicapped person who sat curled up into a ball in his wheelchair, weighed less than forty kilograms, and could not fight back.

Not only did he have a set of incredibly terrifying super nervous systems that could support human intelligence and violent mental powers, he also had a body as tough as steel.

No matter how many times Meng Chao activated his spirit energy magnetic field and sent flames and electricity into Gao Ye’s body, he could not stop him from fleeing underground while squirming around.

Meng Chao yanked the chains back. They grew so taut that they became two straight lines, but in the end, he just ended up being dragged down by Gao Ye.

Meng Chao gritted his teeth so hard that sparks flew out.

The chains wrapped around his arms nearly crushed them.

But he kept his grip around the chains despite the great pain. As long as he could persevere for one more second, there was a chance that Lu Siya would arrive with her reinforcements.

No matter how efficient the Ultimate Sandworm was when it came to digging earth, there was a limit to it. There was no way that it could create a tunnel of dozens of kilometers in an hour, right?

But against his expectations, after Gao Ye dug several meters underground, his speed rose swiftly, and there were signs that he would soon disappear underground.

Meng Chao refused to let go and was dragged underground. The earth and rocks around him were as smooth as a mirror. The tunnel was clearly not made just now!

His mind raced, and Meng Chao immediately understood what had happened. Gao Ye had prepared a backup plan.

He used Giant Sandworms to dig multiple tunnels under the lab and create multiple complicated and interconnected escape routes.

The tunnel behind them was gradually blocked off by the earth that gushed out of Gao Ye’s excretory hole, and in front of them was a dark maze.

The situation was worrisome.
