Gray Serpent's Devotion; The All-Purpose Judah
"Of course it's because I missed you, Snakey. It's been a few days since we last saw each other, hasn't it?"
"Oh, that's a good answer, I like it."
"I'm glad you like it. Let's go eat together later. Even Fusion Warrior can't eat instant noodles all the time."
"Yes, yes, yes~ What a worrywart little guinea pig."
A look of pleasure spread across Mobius's face as he gazed at the flawless White Youth before him, feeling that his bed, which he hadn't lain on for some time, was finally going to be useful.
"Speaking of which, your strength as Chimera is indeed far superior to Kevin's in every aspect."
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"Kevin sent over the medical report. I just compared your data and found that your evolution speed is 8.7 times that of his, Bai Ge. Although you are both Chimera, it seems that the gap will only widen in the future."
Mobius looked at the medical report in the Bai Ge's hand, his fingertips tracing the lines of data, his snake-like eyes filled with excitement.
The moment he looked at Bai Ge again, it was as if he were admiring a dazzling gem.
Mobius knew very well that the White Youth before her was the "infinity" she had been searching for! He was the ultimate embodiment of her ideals, even a beacon of human evolution!
The Chimera Project is not just about evolving a single individual; it also contains the possibility of enabling ordinary people to evolve as well.
After all, the Chimera Fusion Warrior seem to be just devouring and absorbing the abilities of thousands of Honkai Beasts, continuously evolving and growing. The stronger the Honkai, the more types of Honkai Beast are born, and the more abilities they can gain as ultimate creatures.
But in reality, this is also a pioneering path that, through its own infinite evolution, reveals many possibilities and ultimately finds an evolutionary solution suitable for ordinary people!
It can be said that the Chimera Fusion Warrior are the ultimate ideal pursued by Mobius, and their very existence is a beacon guiding the future evolution of all mankind.
"Bai Ge, stay in my lab tonight and let me study your body carefully. I believe that [Rebellion of God] is just your starting point, and you will definitely reach a higher realm in the future."
Mobius touched Bai Ge's cheek with fascination, admiring the boy's flawless appearance.
"That's only natural, Snakey."
Bai Ge said with absolute confidence.
He has never been one to stand still, even if the future crosses the Finality, because there are still things on a higher level, such as the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum...
But sooner or later he will conquer the "trees" and the "sea" of this world as well!
"By the way, what were you doing just now? You seemed so engrossed in looking at the destruction pool?"
"Oh... I almost forgot."
Mobius paused for a moment before realizing what was happening. She gave a helpless, bitter smile, thinking that whenever Bai Ge was in front of her, she would forget everything she was doing.
But there's nothing we can do about it.
For Mobius, there was no one more attractive in the world than Bai Ge.
However, although what had just caught Snakey's attention was not even a fraction as good as the White Youth beside her, it did have a value that made her look forward to it.
"Come on, Bai Ge, come and see this evolution that's taking place in the destruction pool."
"Huh? Evolution? This... this is?!"
Bai Ge's gaze fell upon the destruction pool.
In the pool filled with green dissolving liquid, there was a hideous creature that was barely human, seemingly on the verge of death, and its body was being continuously dissolved.
If left unattended, it will likely dissolve in this destruction pool without leaving a trace within half a day, as if it had never existed in this world.
But...
"It... wants to live? No, it's trying hard to survive?"
Bai Ge opened her eyes wide, feeling utterly shocked.
The eyes of this hideous creature radiated an astonishing will to survive. Although its mouth had long been completely corroded, it was silently screaming for life.
Mobius's snake-like eyes were also filled with emotion.
"How about it? Although it is the complete opposite of you, ugly, lowly, weak, and has countless flaws as a living being, its only flaw is its will to live, which is enough to be called [beautiful]."
"Mobius, what exactly is it..."
"It was insignificant, just a byproduct of my testing of new technologies. I threw it into this disposal pool yesterday, but as you can see."
Mobius looked at the experimental subject in the pool with a look of pleasure. Although it was a life form she had created, it had shown an evolution that exceeded her expectations.
"I thought it had been completely destroyed yesterday, but look... it has evolved. Even though more than 80% of the organism has been corroded, it is not only still alive, but it has also developed consciousness."
Mobius's voice became somewhat excited. She loved witnessing moments of biological evolution, even though most evolution was as appalling as what this experimental subject was showing at the moment.
But the process of evolution is not beautiful, after all, not everyone can be as special as Bai Ge.
The evolution of most organisms is inherently ugly.
But only by experiencing that ugly process can people truly understand what... the beauty of life is!
"... So it was you."
Bai Ge also showed a look of sudden realization, recognizing who the guy in the destruction pool was.
It is the Gray Serpent, the original Gray Serpent.
One of the Current Civilization executives of the [World Serpent] organization.
Bai Ge had dealt with the Gray Serpent a few times during his time at the Hearth Home, but the Gray Serpent back then was so different from the one he saw now that he couldn't recognize it immediately.
"Bai Ge, what do you think I should do with it?"
Mebius handed over the disposal to Bai Ge, Snakey was very interested to see how Bai would handle it.
"..."
Bai Ge remained silent for a while, knowing that if he did nothing, the Gray Serpent would not survive.
Even if it has survived until now, it is impossible for it to escape the fate of dying in the destruction pool on its own.
If Bai Ge makes this choice, then the fate of the Gray Serpent will be changed. In the future, it will no longer exist in the Current Civilization, and perhaps... the [World Serpent] organization, which is basically operated by the Gray Serpent, will also cease to exist/go bankrupt.
A troublesome enemy might simply disappear.
But...
"Let it live. It has persevered until now. No matter what it becomes in the future, at least for now, its will to survive deserves to be rewarded."
Bai Ge decided to let the Gray Serpent live.
Under Mobius's astonished gaze, he personally stepped into the destruction pool. This liquid, which could even dissolve Honkai Emperor, was just a slightly hot and disgusting slime to Bai Ge.
The Gray Serpent's ugly eyes stared straight at Bai Ge.
Shock, longing, hope, pleading, yearning... countless emotions instantly appeared in its newly born consciousness, and the moment Bai Ge dragged it out of the destruction pool.
A single, glistening tear slid down the Gray Serpent's eye.
It knew it had escaped its fate of death!
"Hmm, consider this a reward for showing me something amazing. I'll grant you a body."
Bai Ge used the powers of the Herrscher of Reason and the Herrscher of Life and Death to construct the body of a Current Civilization Gray Serpent, which is the artificial human body that is half mechanical and half biological.
At the same time, he thought to himself...
(This thing might not necessarily be an enemy in the future. In fact, if things continue like this, I might become the master of the World Serpent... Hmm, that would be even better, the Gray Serpent is a very useful worker, its loyalty is very high!)
Bai Ge didn't notice how fervent the Gray Serpent's gaze was towards him at that moment.
This is the third update. I'm asking for flowers, votes, and tips.
I almost forgot that the Gray Serpent also comes from Previous Civilization; let me mention it.
Chapter 314, The Worship of the Gray Serpent, Almighty Judah (Please customize)
(I survived! I survived! I survived!)
The test subject, pulled from the destruction pool by Bai Ge, now knew the ecstatic joy of surviving a catastrophe.
An indescribable emotion filled its android body, and its single red eye shone brighter and more dazzling than ever before.
It excitedly touched its own body.
It has very little flesh and blood; it's mostly mechanical. This body was created by Bai Ge using the power of the Herrscher of Life and Death to heal its ugly body and then wrap it in machinery.
Although its performance wasn't powerful, it was still a million times better than the mangled body that had been barely clinging to life in the destruction pool just seconds before, constantly at risk of death!
The joy of life filled its entire being.
It knelt before the White Youth, gazing up at the benefactor who had granted it the power of life, but before it could even adapt to the language system that came with this artificial human body...
"From today onwards, your name is Gray Serpent."
"!!!"
Bai Ge bestowed upon it the name that originally belonged to the Gray Serpent.
What Bai considered a perfectly reasonable action caused the Gray Serpent to tremble with excitement once again.
The name "Gray Serpent" doesn't sound good, nor does it have any special meaning.
Even so, for the Gray Serpent, this was an immense blessing that defied description.
Because this is a name! Not a test subject's number!
A life with a name, such a simple and ordinary existence, was something that the Gray Serpent, which was struggling to survive in the destruction pool just seconds ago, wouldn't even dare to dream of.
