Chen Ye was writing a file in his room, but today's file was a bit different from usual.

He was recording the changes in his body.

Chen Ye opened his mouth and pulled at his lip skin, looking in the mirror. "Six more teeth have grown."

Chen Ye tried to move his right eye, and the next second, his right pupil split into nine.

As soon as he moved again, the nine pupils merged back together.

"My pupils split on their own if I'm not careful, so I need to be mindful of that. Besides that, my ten fingers can shoot out silk threads. The threads are as hard as steel and can be made transparent."

Yes, Chen Ye's silk threads could be made completely transparent, just like 003.

And besides the silk threads, the puppets controlled by Chen Ye's threads could also be made transparent.

As for where the puppets came from, there were two ways to obtain them.

One was to come into contact with a certain object, or a pre-existing puppet-like creation, and then link it with silk threads to control it directly.

The second was to stab silk threads into a human body, which would also allow for direct control.

Chen Ye had casually pulled in four extras before.

In addition to this, Chen Ye also possessed abilities similar to 005; he could pick up rocks or metal and refine them.

This could be used to refine metal weapons or metal puppets.

It was worth noting that neither the metal puppets nor the rock puppets generated any heat themselves.

This meant that a thermal imager could not detect invisible rock or metal puppets.

But in the end, whether they were puppets or not didn't really matter.

It was far simpler for Chen Ye to shoot out silk threads to cut down living beings than to have puppets kill them.

So, for Chen Ye, the greatest use of puppets was actually for laying lines.

Chen Ye's silk threads could only be fired in one direction. If he wanted to make a turn, he would need a puppet as a pivot point.

This was true whether it was from left to right or from top to bottom.

For this purpose, Chen Ye had created many small wiring puppets. They were miniature in size, made of metal, with a hollow chest.

In theory, if these small puppets were deployed in advance, Chen Ye could use his silk threads to cut off every corner of the area.

The advantage of using silk threads was their speed, wide range, and strong destructive power.

The disadvantage was that it took time to set them up, and they were not suitable for prolonged combat because the threads would get tangled.

If he controlled puppets to fight, it would be simpler.

Firstly, there was no need to specifically set up the battlefield. Secondly, the invisible metal puppets could not be detected by the enemy, allowing them to catch the enemy off guard.

Moreover, as long as there were more puppets, even prolonged combat would not be a significant issue.

However, puppets also had their drawbacks.

Firstly, there was the line connecting Chen Ye and the puppet. If this line were severed, the puppet would lose its ability to move.

Also, the attack part of the puppet still relied on weapons.

When using melee weapons, it was difficult to guarantee killing the opponent instantly.

But if they could be paired with firearms and the firearms were made invisible, the effect would be different.

Although the bullets fired could not be made invisible, it was still sufficient.

At the very least, the enemy wouldn't know which direction the bullets were coming from, making them unable to dodge or evade.

This was especially true when engaging enemies at long distances, reducing the possibility of the silk threads being severed.

"Speaking of which, which organization were those people from before? How did they track down 004?"

Among Chen Ye's creations, the Queen Bee was the most human-like. Her appearance was almost indistinguishable from a human.

What, you're talking about the Invisible Man?

You know he's invisible, just ignore him.

It would be one thing if the Fishman was exposed, but the Queen Bee shouldn't have been exposed so quickly.

Chen Ye couldn't figure it out.

"Also, didn't I ask Raven to record it? Where did he put the recording?"

When Chen Ye returned this time, he found that all his creations had disappeared. He had no idea where they had gone.

There was no choice. Since he had no clues, Chen Ye could only speculate.

For example, were those people a special organization that dealt with supernatural phenomena or monsters?

That was quite possible.

It was likely that there were many other containment organizations in this world.

Chen Ye had read many novels and watched many movies. Whenever special forces appeared, there were always more than one.

At least three.

Why?

Because triangles have stability.

And usually, when special forces appear, a group of characters who are set up to be incredibly powerful will start causing trouble.

Then, within these special organizations, all sorts of ridiculously strong characters will start appearing one after another, with several factions fighting each other to the death, almost to the point of blowing up the Earth.

And before this kind of plot unfolds, there are always a bunch of cannon fodder who appear first to die.

Looking at it this way, those people from before should have been the cannon fodder who appeared first.

With enemies all around, if the major powers knew Chen Ye's secret, they would inevitably attack him en masse.

Chen Ye's deduction was not without basis; take his double-eared pot as an example.

Since things as unreasonable as the double-eared pot exist in this world, there's no reason why similar things wouldn't exist.

And if such things exist, they are usually controlled by a certain unit or national organization.

If these things, like Chen Ye's double-eared pot, can create superhumans, then it's even more troublesome.

Although all of the above are assumptions, and the enemies Chen Ye predicts are all imagined, there's always a chance.

What if it really is exactly as he thought?

Chen Ye took two bottles of potion from the cabinet. "The experiment on the immortality trait of the vampire reagent must begin. As long as I master the immortality trait, I won't care even if everything collapses."

To Chen Ye, those people were never his subordinates, but test subjects.

Test subjects can be replaced at will; as long as there are potions, he can have as many of those monsters as he wants.

Excluding Chen Ye, who was busy fighting an imaginary enemy, the Nine-Tailed Fox's side was already overwhelmed.

"Damn it, is there no other way to effectively deal with these monsters besides large-scale destructive weapons?"

"How is Chu Yang doing?"

"He's still cooperating with the experiment. His internal body structure is already vastly different from a human's, and all his stats are far beyond normal people."

"If we can achieve a breakthrough in biotechnology from him, the research and development progress of the first-generation enhancement reagent will directly see a leap forward."

"How much longer will it take?"

"Uncertain, but I think it should be soon."

"Soon?"

"Do you know how strong those monsters are?"

"When facing 006, I almost took an entire squad to hell to see my great-grandmother!"

"If you and I swapped places, and that monster got angry for just a moment, I guarantee you that monster would beat you so badly your own mother wouldn't recognize you!"

"We need Chu Yang's abilities even more than you do!"

"I understand how you feel, but please calm down."

"Chu Yang's use in the rear is much greater than on the front lines."

"If the enhancement reagent can be successfully developed, our hundred-man armed force will be able to directly contend with a thousand 002s!"

"I don't care how many 002s their reagent lets us fight, I only care about the lives of my team members right now!"

"Let me ask you, if a thousand 002s, or even ten thousand, were to appear right now, who would be the ones rushing to the front lines to deal with them?"

"Obviously, it's us!"

"Can't you look further ahead?"

"Further ahead?"

"Do you mean we should burn some paper for ourselves in advance, just in case?!"

"We don't even know how to get through the present, why the hell should we consider the future? What future do we even have!"

"You..."

"What about me? Let me ask you, if your reagent research fails and our front line is annihilated, will you take responsibility for that?"

"I..."

"What about me? I was suddenly transferred to lead the charge against the monsters. Do you think I wanted this? Do you think the brothers under me wanted this?"
