The First Order - Chapter 759

Chapter 759 The head of the Anjing House

Were there really gods in this world?

Li Shentan did not think so, even though he was regarded as a demigod by the others.

In Li Shentan’s opinion, there were no real gods in this world at all. These “gods” were just some powerful individuals, as they still ate, drank, defecated, urinated, and had normal emotions and feelings like normal people. Other than being better at fighting, they did not have appearances like gods at all.

For example, Chen Liu’er still had to pretend he was indifferent to the world to make himself appear more like a god. In Li Shentan’s eyes, that was being surprisingly silly. He wondered how the Pyro Company managed to mislead that fool most of the time.

And now, Qing Shen suddenly claimed it was because of the Blood of God that Chen Liu’er and the other clone were able to awaken their powers. This stunned Li Shentan. Could there really be gods in this world?

He looked at Qing Shen and wondered, “Are you referring to the No. 001 Experimental’s blood? It was left behind from before The Cataclysm? Wouldn’t the blood deteriorate after such a long time? Back then, the entire world was out of power, right? 99% of all electronic components had been damaged, so how did they manage to preserve it?”

Qing Shen said, “By storing it in an enclosed container, it could remain intact without any preservation measures.”

“I don’t really believe that.” Li Shentan shook his head.

“Then let me start from the beginning.” Qing Shen thought for a moment and said, “This No. 001 Experimental was sent to the Pyro Company for cancer treatment initially. At first, they had no way of treating him. But seeing that he was on the verge of death, the Pyro Company had no choice but to try an untested drug on him. That drug was called TSX001. As a result, something weird happened. A week later, not only did the patient fully recover, but he also turned into an even more powerful Neo-Human.”

“Do you have any information about that?” Luo Lan asked. “If you have the data, we can have a look at it more intuitively.”

“No, the data was destroyed during The Cataclysm. No one even knows how to develop TSX001 anymore. Otherwise, the Pyro Company would not have had to go through so many years of detours.” Qing Shen said, “However, a blood sample of the No. 001 Experimental had been sent to Laboratory 9 before The Cataclysm, and the Pyro Company was able to retrieve it from there several years ago. The strange thing is that despite it being more than 200 years since The Cataclysm, the blood sample has still remained intact in the extremely harsh environment even though it was not protected by any corresponding measures.”

Qing Shen remembered he had read a short passage from the records that were kept. It was a clinical description of the No. 001 Experimental’s condition after being treated with the drug.

According to the passage, the No. 001 Experimental’s eyes had turned into a sea of stars, and he could even switch his eyes between that of a human being and a wild animal in an instant.

Moreover, he started seeing things that were very far away and could hear whatever he wanted to listen in on. He could also alter the thoughts of others and nearly dissipated into consciousness to merge with the world.

But it seemed the No. 001 Experimental managed to stop himself from dissipating before falling into a coma.

Qing Shen thought to himself, ‘How else can a Neo-Human like this be explained other than by describing him as a god?’

“Since the TSX001 drug was effective, why did the rest of the Experimentals turn into monsters instead of being cured?” Luo Lan wondered.

Qing Shen looked at Luo Lan seriously and said, “This is where the No. 001 Experimental is special. It’s precisely because he was the only one who truly completed the transformation that he’s called a god. The reason why the Pyro Company believes their genetic technology can change humanity is because they really created a god with their own hands before!”

But to the Pyro Company’s surprise, even though they had clearly succeeded, the world had played a huge joke on them as a disaster descended.

If it had not been for this disaster, they would have created a brand new world! The No. 001 Experimental was their key to that new world!

However, it did not matter that the No. 001 Experimental had disappeared. The Pyro Company felt that since they could create a No. 001 Experimental, they could just create a second one.

But countless years had been wasted in between. As time went by, the young scientists turned into gray-haired old men in the blink of an eye. However, there seemed to be no end to the path they had embarked on.

The Pyro Company had to admit the No. 001 Experimental was just a fluke and that they were not actually that smart.

Luo Lan curled his lips. “How are we going to find the No. 001 Experimental when we don’t even know what he looks like? Even if that person is standing next to you, you might not recognize him.”

“Let’s go.” Qing Shen looked at everyone. “It’s starting to get chaotic outside, so it’s a good opportunity for us to leave.” With that, Qing Shen found a set of clothes and wrapped himself up tightly. It was as though he was afraid of being recognized. Luo Lan pursed his lips. “You’re disguised quite well.”

Qing Shen smiled and said, “There’s too many people who want to kill your brother. Since we share the same appearance, I naturally have to be more cautious.”

Luo Lan snapped, “Why do your words piss me off so much?”

“But don’t worry, no one can kill him anymore,” Qing Shen said with a smile as he opened the door and walked up the stairs.

The people outside had already left the building. They went off to search the other buildings to see if they could find any valuable information.

Wang Yun headed towards one of the buildings that was specially equipped with a power distribution box outside. This meant there were probably some electronic equipment and servers belonging to the Pyro Company stored inside.

But before he could approach, he suddenly saw a black mist float out of that building!

The black mist floating in the air flew enchantingly into the distance. However, it could no longer move after flying for five to six meters.

Wang Yun sneered, “Wang Wenyan, still not coming down? I’ve finally got you this time!”

During the battle in Luoyang City, Wang Wenyan, as the director of the Wang Consortium’s intelligence agency, had killed a large group of people from the Kong and Zhou Consortiums. Now that the other party had appeared here, it must be for some extremely important intelligence, right?

Although other people might not be able to take on Wang Wenyan, Wang Yun’s power was a natural nemesis of Wang Wenyan!

Wang Wenyan’s power enabled him to turn into a cloud of black mist and pass through any places without hindrance. Even if it was a gap as small as a pinhole, he could still get in and out of a place easily.

Meanwhile, Wang Yun’s superpower was to control the air…

The black mist kept changing its shape in midair, but it was unable to break free from the “cage” imposed on it by Wang Yun. A moment later, Wang Wenyan fell to the ground and revealed his true form. A hard drive also fell out of his pocket, and he looked to be in an extremely pathetic state.

Wang Yun sneered and said, “Wang Wenyan, you probably never expected this day would come, right? You’ll pay with your life for killing our Kong Consortium’s people.”

Then Wang Yun picked up the hard drive from the ground and was about to kill Wang Wenyan. But at this moment, more than a dozen small paper cranes descended from the sky. Wang Yun’s pupils suddenly contracted and he retreated quickly!

If the head of the Anjing House had personally come here, Wang Yun would definitely not be a match for her!

However, the paper cranes did not attack him. Instead, they turned around and flew away immediately. When Wang Yun turned his head back, Wang Wenyan was nowhere to be seen.
