Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 595: I am a truth seeker (5300)

The man's voice carried a distant echo, as if he was recalling a very distant past.

【Back home, my mother is already old, she has heard about my achievements a long time ago, and she is proud of me - I can't tell my mother about the Grand Duke, I just told her that I am going to a distant experiment Office work, it may be difficult to come back in recent years]

【My mother happily told me, let me go. She lives well alone, and the neighbors in the neighborhood take good care of her. Of course, she is also very strong, and she also helps each other with her neighbors. 】

[I was very sad, and finally my mother drove me away, so I went to the Grand Duke's private laboratory to participate in the research of confidential technology]

[That was the happiest period of my life - my mother's life has been settled, someone recognized me, my wisdom, my hard work, and if I don't look down on me because of blood, I will obviously be recognized in other places The powerhouse of the fourth energy level who is worshiped as a **** is actually equal... At least on the surface, he communicates with me as an equal and invites me to participate in his research]

[Then, things get a little more complicated]

【The subjects I have been assigned are 'life solidification' and 'artificial humans' that can perform 'soul transfer'... To be honest, the former is a new technology that I have never heard of, while the latter is very classic' Common topics of immortality' and 'soul transfer']

【To be honest, the latter topic is really meaningless-the soul of the sublimated person comes from the body and thinking mode, which is the basic knowledge of basic knowledge. The higher the level of the sublimated person, the more difficult it is to separate the body and soul , splitting at will will cause damage to the self]

【Especially the heart-light body, the powerhouse above the third energy level, once the body and soul are separated, even the heart-light body will decline... This is quite confidential information, because the special source quality that constitutes the heart-light body requires The perfect harmonious state of body and soul can be gradually derived]

【Even if a 100% adapted body is created for the soul transfer from beginning to end, there is no way to bring the power over, and because of the transfer and decline of the soul, almost 100% of the very important memory will be lost--that transfer Are the people from the past still the original people? Fairies don’t even do this kind of thing]

【But the Grand Duke told me, don't think about the decay of the soul, and don't think about the inherent thinking that 'only the sublimated' can have a soul... I just need to solve the artificial human body with a high adaptation rate]

[To be honest, this is also very difficult. Initially, the connection between the soul and the body is the source matter, but after the soul is formed, its spirit matter will in turn nourish the body, and a blank body itself will also give birth to the source matter. The conflict between the three is essentially There is no solution to the problem, 100% is impossible. I have been studying for several years, and finally created a practical artificial human with a maximum of 95%... and it is still an isolated case. Most of them are only about 70%~85%, and they are extremely expensive]

[Even if the standard is lowered to this point, the verification itself is a big problem]

[Not enough, the experimental materials are not enough. And researching this technology, how can it be successful without the information of goblins and dragons, which can change bodies at will? In addition, biotechnology is indeed not the strong point of the Grand Duke, or even the Empire, it is the strong technology of Feiyan Land]

【We need more volunteers... But where are so many death row prisoners and volunteers who voluntarily donate their lives? Not to mention the goblins and dragons I need... Hey, that's funny, where are the volunteer goblins and dragons? 】

[The Grand Duke was silent for a while after knowing this, he recognized my previous achievements, and then asked me to change a subject - this time I am in charge of the formation principle and suitable environment of the 'soul aggregate' as the main researcher]

[This has nothing to do with what I learned back then. Fortunately, I have figured out the alchemy skills in this area over the years. This subject is not difficult for me. After the materials and precious books arrived, I made a quick confirmation]

[The soul, as a highly ordered collection of spirit matter, needs to be in an area with a lot of energy to maintain stability without a physical body]

[The Void Realm is actually suitable for the survival of the soul, but the Void Realm is too damaged after the disaster of the skyfall. It is in the repair period, so it will strip the soul, or in other words, the energy of all the Void Realm exists to repair itself... Those virtual machine gods have been essentially controlled by the instinct of the virtual world, they are the tentacles of repair, just like the goblins are the tentacles of natural psionic power]

【In other words, the Void Mech God is another kind of fairy! It's no wonder that the Mech God of the Void Realm can also be used as an inheritance, and it's no wonder that the goblins are so concerned about the operation of the Mech God of the Void Realm. All the knowledge in this world is indeed common! 】

[So, I came up with a rather outrageous and proven correct result]

【The most suitable environment for the soul to exist is actually hell】

[It sounds like nonsense. But in other words, it is the 'volcanic area' or the ionosphere above the sky, which is full of thunder and electromagnetism]

[They correspond to virtual realm areas, not only will not absorb the energy of the soul, but will overflow part of the natural spiritual quality to ensure the survival time of the soul. To be honest, there is no difference between these two places and hell. I also know why in ancient myths and legends, the soul will eventually go to Hell, or reincarnated. This is actually true]

[But the problem is that ... is not enough]

[The energy of the volcano and the ionosphere is too little, maybe it can be barely maintained before the catastrophe, but now it is not enough]

【I really want enough energy, enough energy to make the soul exist forever, it doesn’t exist on Terra, but in the sky... around the sun, if there is a corresponding area around the sun, maybe it’s true There will be that kind of environment]

[I probably also understand a little bit why in ancient mythology, the residence of the heavenly father, the hall called the Temple of the Sun, has another name of "heaven after death" and "resting place"]

[Of course, there is actually something more interesting. The human body itself is actually the best habitat for the soul... After all, the human body is a stable negative entropy body that can absorb energy to maintain its own existence. Unfortunately, the human body's life span is too long. Short, not as durable as the natural environment]

[It sounds like nonsense, but in fact, as long as the resonance frequency of the soul is slightly adjusted, dozens or even more souls can be stuffed into a body]

【Here lies the difficulty—how to adjust the soul thing? There is no way to mass-produce this thing, so although it is a theory, I have no intention of doing experiments. The lives of volunteers are very precious, even corpses. We must respect all teachers]

【My research has been a great success. Although the guess is very bizarre, and there is no such environment on Terra at present, the Grand Duke is very excited. He made an exception and promoted me to be the deputy director. The Central Secret Laboratory is responsible for an important technology of a core project]

【The name of this technology is very strange...'Dead Lord'...Why is it called this unlucky name? 】

【I was apprehensive, but I still declined, because I knew very well that my qualifications were far from enough. In less than ten years, I actually became the deputy director, and I would definitely be rejected by my colleagues. Let me go to the central laboratory first and start as a researcher, and then promote me after I make some achievements]

[The Grand Duke is a little unhappy, after all, his kindness was rejected, but he also understands my thoughts]

[In any case, I am very excited - after all these years, I finally proved myself to the Grand Duke and everyone]

[But I didn't expect, this is the beginning of the nightmare]

【Originally...】

[My research has achieved reality in this way]

A man's life flew before Ian's eyes.

When he was young, he watched his mother work hard, his back ached from exhaustion, and he read the account books by candlelight every day, just to let him study at ease, and he felt guilty, grateful and motivated.

When I was an adult, I understood the barriers of class, and I was cautious in every step of the college, ignoring the contempt and difficulties of teachers and classmates, calming down my mind, and seriously polishing my foundation.

After leaving the academy, he was valued by Grand Duke Sorin, and it was the first time he met someone who cared and respected him.

Then it is year after year of study, research, experiment, racking your brains to overcome problems, and finally get satisfactory or unsatisfactory results.

This man's life, he thought it was smooth sailing.

Although he is an unrecognized illegitimate child, his childhood life was difficult, and his growth process was also very depressing, but he has always had an inexplicable optimism in his heart.

——His father did not tell the family elders of his existence, and he was able to grow up alive.

——The mother brought him up hard and sent him to study, and he rewarded him with excellent grades.

——Teachers and classmates made things difficult for him, maliciousness and deceit were nothing more than that, and did not prevent him from being valued by the Grand Duke.

——Even even those extremely complicated and difficult researches, he led the team to tackle key problems, and there was no result that could not be researched.

He is a genius—someone supports him, someone helps him, someone favors him, and he has to apply for as much research funding as possible along the way.

Isn't this kind of life just smooth sailing?

He has always looked at the whole world with such an optimistic and positive attitude.

But now...

Ian sensed a kind of extreme fear and bewilderment from the wandering emotions.

【Why is the Grand Duke working with the Lingzhi Institute and Feiyandi to conduct research together? It's okay for the Lingzhi Institute to say, isn't Feiyandi an enemy? Even I, who have been in the research institute for the past few years, know that the turmoil in the Grand Dukedom is due to the Flame Land]

【Why would they use this method to treat volunteers? Not a volunteer, but a purchased experimental subject? But aren't these people all refugees from the Northwest... They are also people like us, they just left their homes because of the war? ! 】

【I even saw an old woman who was as old as my mother appear here... Her body is full of abscesses and herpes... vomit...】

[The people in the Lingzhi Institute said that she did it voluntarily. She was seriously ill. In order not to hinder her children, she came here voluntarily to find a cure... If it was just like this, I might be able to feel at ease]

[But the group of **** from the Institute of the Intellect told me with a smile that these viruses were actually "accidentally" missed by them, in order to observe how much the virus's infectivity and lethality would be accurately hit in a normal village age group]

[They said that this virus can accurately kill people over the age of 50, whose bodies are beginning to age. They are the backbone of a country, a collective with experience and wisdom. Will not hesitate to use this weapon to attack the enemy]

[But they used it on their own people first...]

[It shouldn't be like this...I'm going to ask the Grand Duke, I want to find out what's going on]

【...The Archduke told me that although it is difficult to accept, they will not sacrifice for no reason. If you do not want to usher in the death of tens of millions of people, then sacrifice now is necessary]

[Although the technology of the Institute of Intellectual Knowledge is vicious, they did obtain specific medicines and vaccines against the virus through research on the situation of the old woman. It is these constantly updated vaccines]

[Although they are crazy, they are still members of the empire in the final analysis, and it is impossible to really let this lethal weapon spread to their own territory]

【The Grand Duke told me that he knows what kind of person I am, he knows that I am afraid that people like my mother will also become one of the experimenters and one of the victims... I can’t deny it, I’m just afraid that my mother will also Becoming one of them, I just feel morally unfair to these dead experimenters, I don't have the courage to stop all of this]

[I don't have the courage to stop a country...even if it's just a Grand Duke]

[The Grand Duke noticed this, he told me that my mother is safe and happy now, she is well protected]

[And if I really don't want to, I can also leave the Avak Laboratory and do the research I want-my contribution is greater than I imagined, and he will become the second-level researcher after me. After leveling up, arrange a barony for me, let me become a nobleman, and spend my old age in peace】

[As a price, I can no longer conduct related research for the rest of my life. A brave retreat like me should have been killed secretly and kept the technology completely secret, but the Grand Duke swore that he would never do this to anyone of his own]

【I believe the Grand Duke, I know, this may be the best ending】

[But in the end, Dagong said to me meaningfully]

【He said】

【——Adelbert, if you really feel dissatisfied, why don't you try to oppose it and ban it? 】

[Why do you have to keep silent, back away, and pretend not to see all of this? 】

[Replace a plan that everyone thinks is wrong with a better plan—if it were you, I believe you can do it]

[I don't believe in myself]

【But if the Grand Duke believes in me, maybe I... really can? 】

This moment.

Following the path given by the phantom army along the way, Ian passed through the box gardens and finally came to a vast flat land.

This is a round-shaped fortress, which is the main body of the central laboratory where the researcher of Archduke Sorin is stationed. The shield enveloped the laboratory, and Viscount Avak was standing on the top floor of the laboratory. As the local lord, he was undoubtedly the top of the central laboratory.

Many phantoms confronted him silently.

Ian raised his head, and he saw that in the center of the phantom army, there was a man in a blood-ice armor, holding a frosty sword tightly in his hand, his pupils were scarlet like blood, and he exuded a deadly breath. Exactly the same as myself.

He stood in the phantom of the sea of ​​people, but he seemed to be alone. The entire Little Garden was obviously very bright, but his body seemed to be full of overlapping shadows.

And what he was staring at was not the fortress laboratory or the phantom in front of him, let alone Viscount Avak, but the dead darkness in front of him, a long road with no end.

In front of Ian, the phantom army gave way. They stared silently at the second dead king, and then disappeared with a soft sound, turning into fluorescent white light.

They turned into surging rivers of dead souls and merged into the man's body.

Then, on the top of his head, a nearly solid crown was condensed, causing a strange diamond-shaped imprint to appear on his forehead.

Ian was tens of meters away from the man. The man named Adalbert looked back, and they looked at each other.

Pure cyan, with a little silver mist, appeared in the vision of prediction, making Ian narrow his eyes slightly.

[Why are you here? 】

The original dead king looked at Ian, looking at his own kind.

The two pairs of scarlet eyes looked at each other. It was obviously a confrontational scene, but he smiled first.

Although it is a smile, it is actually more like a self-deprecating smile: [You are not from the leader of Sorin, not from the leader of Avak, and you have no direct connection with these tragedies and the dead... Why did you go all the way? Straight here? 】

【You have clearly obtained the power of the dead king, haven't you? Even after the dead soul dissipates, this power will leave, but the perception of the power that has already been obtained will not disappear... You are the third energy level in the future, or even higher]

[In this case, it's time to leave, why come? 】

"I am a seeker of truth."

Ian replied, his tone was taken for granted: "It's you, right? The undead souls who had endured countless pains in the Avak laboratory were liberated, but accidentally led to the fall of the Void, forming the Abyss of Silence, directly Or the Avak Territory mutation that indirectly led to the death of nearly a million people."

"Don't think I'm a saint, I came here to avenge these dead souls. I was indeed very angry, that's why I killed those beasts in the Lingzhi Academy and gained the power of the dead king."

He said slowly, staring into the eyes of the man in front of him: "But in essence, I just want to know the truth behind all of this, and the true meaning behind every final plan."

"For example, the plan of the former dead king...is it one of the many 'legacy' that Inaiga II intended to transform the world?"

"That's all."

Ian's eyes were not at a loss. Even before facing the army of thousands of phantoms, he was still fearless, let alone only facing the man in front of him now?

Dead Lord looked at the young man in front of him, his face was blurred, and he couldn't see the specific appearance at all, as if thousands of different faces appeared and disappeared at the same time.

But Ian could feel that the other party's expression softened a bit: [You face your inner desires without any confusion, and you don't deliberately show your morality... but you don't deliberately despise it, you just think It exists naturally]

[You are a good person... a good person who is more suitable than me to be a dead king. It is better to say that fate guided you to come here, maybe it is to make you a real dead king]

Speaking of this, Yadbert lowered his eyes, and his tone became cold: [But because of this, now, at this moment]

【You shouldn't be here】
