Mouse Pup
Du An's sudden 'resurrection'.
Qin Yiguan was on high alert. He turned around and grabbed Du An by the throat. If this guy caused any trouble, Qin Yiguan would break his neck immediately!
"You really came..."
Do you remember me?
"I've been doing parasitic research on you for four whole years, so we're practically old friends."
Du An's expression became calm, and he even managed a twisted smile. "I remember, your code name was ' Mouse Pup,' which means a young white mouse in a laboratory."
Mouse Pup.
When Qin Yiguan heard this word, his brain seemed to explode. Fragments of memories flooded his mind, and his head throbbed with pain.
Ring Research Institute!
His childhood was spent in that white building, and that's where his ' Black Calamity ' personality wanted to escape!
Every day, I am pushed into all sorts of operating rooms, research labs, and various instruments that look like metal coffins.
Five groups of scientists take turns each day to conduct various kinds of research on me.
Du An...
He was one of the scientists in that group.
He would drain all my blood every time!
finally.
On the day I turned six, I finally couldn't take it anymore, and I rebelled!
I bypassed all sorts of security checkpoints and found Du An's lab. I'm going to kill him! I'm going to kill him!
but...
The moment I broke down the door, my adoptive parents appeared.
My mother comforted me and hugged me; she extinguished the anger in my heart, and they took me home.
after...
I can't remember anything; all I remember is killing my adoptive parents.
At this moment, Qin Yiguan's Pupil trembled violently.
But he discovered that, without realizing it, he had already released Du An's neck and taken several steps back.
At that moment, Du An stood up, took out a pair of glasses from his white coat, and put them on. In the dim light, the glasses reflected a white light, obscuring his eyes.
He chuckled softly, "You were born in the Leviathan Rift, a being from a parallel universe. I remember when you first arrived at the Ring Research Institute, you were curled up in swaddling clothes, with tiny hands, tiny feet, and a tiny head, your skin crystal clear, truly like a baby mouse just hatched from its burrow."
"You know what? You're incredibly valuable."
"Leviathan Rift, it clearly exists from the Metaverse."
"But your body has actually appeared in reality."
"Your adoptive parents are holding you in the Metaverse, and when they leave the Metaverse, you will still be in their arms!"
"Such a special baby deserves my utmost attention and thorough research."
"You're strange; your body has an incredibly strong regenerative ability and can withstand any experiment!"
Qin Yiguan's mind went blank.
Previously, Jiaolong claimed that she was born from Leviathan, a claim he had never been able to grasp, but now he knows the truth.
Could this be related to the Boundless One?!
"Back then, when you broke into my office and were about to kill me, your parents suddenly appeared and took you away."
Du An looked at Qin Yiguan, his expression seemingly calm, but his body was actually trembling slightly. "But the fear you caused is deeply buried in my heart. A six-year-old child, yet you've given me, an adult, nightmares every night!"
"And so I fell into a deep slumber in the Metaverse, entering this distant, deep sea."
"I have built a vast underwater empire here."
"I'm hiding here from you too."
"I also scanned the blood in your body into digital items using the Metaverse scanning technology from back then, and brought them into the Metaverse."
Do you know how Tuomen Acuminate Fungus * comes about?
Du An looked at Qin Yiguan, "It wasn't something I found in the deep sea, but rather a mutated form of the Tuomen Bacterium that parasitizes your blood!"
"I've tried so many times on you, but I've never succeeded."
"But unexpectedly, in my first year at the bottom of the ocean, it completed its own iteration."
In other words, you created the Tuomen Acuminate Fungus *!
"It made my descendants incredibly powerful, and my underwater empire incredibly prosperous!"
As for me.
Du An let out a breath, then looked at Qin Yiguan and said, "Four months ago, you reappeared in my nightmares. I realized that you would eventually find me and kill me, and, deep down, I felt that that moment would come very soon."
"So."
"I modified myself by mimicking the genes of crab barnacles."
"Crab barnacles are also a type of deep-sea parasite. They live inside crabs, absorbing their nutrients, blocking their nerves, and controlling their thoughts."
"And I chose to parasitize this enormous blue whale."
As he spoke, Du An glanced back at the nerves and blood vessels connected to the blue whale's skin behind him.
"My thoughts entered the blue whale's brain."
"I share the same perspective as it, and I can perceive everything it perceives."
"I use its energy to preserve my body from decay."
"I watched you enter Giant Whale City, and I watched your every move!"
Du An suddenly laughed, "You're looking for the parent organism of the Tuomen Acuminate Fungus?"
"I'm telling you, it doesn't have a mother at all!"
"The 'research findings' about the Mother that Shui Luo and the others mentioned are nothing but lies I fabricated."
"But to be fair, the one who controls all Tuomen Acuminate Fungus... is indeed me!"
"From the very beginning of creating the Tuomen Acuminate Fungus, I compiled a special language for them and transmitted it through pheromones!"
"The Tuomen Acuminate Fungus on my body acts as an 'information operative' within its species."
Qin Yiguan listened quietly without interrupting, waiting for him to confess without being asked!
"The Tuomen Acuminate Fungus does indeed have its drawbacks."
"Later on, it will evolve into an uncontrollable state, forming a ' Negative Doppelgänger.' In principle, this means the parasite has completely gained the initiative and turned the tables."
Du An's expression was somewhat crazed, "But I can't bear to give up the power it brings. My underwater world still needs that power to grow! So, I keep infecting my descendants with this parasite, and then observe everyone, trying to find a special constitution among them, someone who is born with antibodies and can maintain the Tuomen Acuminate Fungus in a stable state..."
"Although, this will cause many underwater inhabitants to die."
"To be precise, tens of thousands have died."
But this is for the sake of science.
"Similarly, with this goal in mind, I waited for a long time, but still without results."
"With the number of Negative Doppelgänger increasing, the inhabitants of the underwater world are becoming more and more panicked."
"I then came up with some ideas to reassure the public."
"For example, they could bring in that swindler old Daoist priest to pretend to govern, delaying the process as long as possible."
Qin Yiguan suddenly realized, "So you knew Ying Dang's true colors all along."
"Hehe."
"Certainly!"
Du An breathed a long sigh of relief. "Finally, just two days ago, I confirmed that the person with the antibodies against Tuomen Acuminate Fungus has appeared."
"He is my biological son, Shui Luo."
"So, I've decided to Awakening."
But then he saw the thick blood vessels and nerves behind Du An constantly detaching. He slowly stepped closer to Qin Yiguan and whispered, "At the same time, I am finally using my real body to face you."
