Self-cultivation of Kamen Rider ZIO

Chapter 382

"I disagree!"

Denton already found it strange that he wanted to abandon his body and use the eye-soul system to live. What's more, in order to maintain the eye-soul system, he had to rely on the power of the great eye...

How can you do this?

"Stop it! A system that must rely on the power of the Great Eye to survive cannot be called a success at all!"

Denton also respects the Great Eye and regards the Great Eye that saved them as a benefactor.

But he would not regard the Great Eye as a god to protect them.

The attitude of the great eye when he prayed for the cure of the red death disease in Adnis earlier explained everything.

"The great eye will leave one day. If you keep relying on the great eye, what will happen then?"

It's very simple. At that time, no matter how good the future created by Edith's eye-soul system is, it will eventually become a veritable hell!

Because they didn't solve the problem of Red Death at all, they just postponed that problem.

Therefore, if this matter is not resolved by their own strength, it will be meaningless!
Denton persuades Adenis.

"This is something we should solve by ourselves. We can't always pin the future of the beholder world on an unknown force."

Denton believed in human possibility.

That's why he was obsessed with the experiment of strengthening and transforming the body.

Adnes, however, disagrees with this view.

He believes that the Great Eye is the benefactor who helped them build this world, and will always be by their side.

Moreover, apart from relying on the power of the Great Eye, Edith's eye-soul system really fits his definition of an ideal world.

There is no need to be afraid of the red death disease, no need to be threatened by death, and an ideal world where people can live happily all the time is in front of them. Adenis really can't give up because of Denton's idea that he thinks is just unfounded worry.

Adnis severely reprimanded Denton, and ordered Denton not to leave any room for him to stop his sacrificial physical enhancement experiment.

"You guys are wrong..."

Denton murmured in a low voice, and left in a daze.

Adenis looked at Denton sadly.

"Why can't you understand me? My friend..."

……

The eye-soul system was implemented after all.

Because of Adenis' decision.

Also because the great eye agreed to help Adenis.

The inhabitants of the beholder world have all become beholders.

Denton is no exception.

However, this is just a stopgap measure for Denton.

Because Denton does not intend to stop the experiment of physical enhancement and transformation.

Even if the eye-soul system has already started running.

Even though Adenis had ordered him so relentlessly.

Denton shared his thoughts with his assistant.

"Goyo, the eye-soul system that relies on the power of the great eye will collapse one day. That is definitely not the future of the beholder world, so, as before, continue to assist me in completing the experiment!"

Goyo agreed.

Human beings should rely on their own evolution to survive... Wudai agrees with Denton's idea.

What's more, he is confused about the future path.

Denton's invitation gave him a way forward.

Time is like the hands of a clock, drawing a circle and returning to the original point.

In the past, because of Denton's invitation, he had the motivation to continue living, and now, it's the same.

The same is true for Chloe, who calls Denton her father and gets the meaning of living from Denton.

……

The first is the preparation stage.

With the help of Goyo and Chloe, Denton secretly built a new laboratory.

Then, with the help of Adair, Denton's body was transported from the place where the bodies of all the residents of the beholder world were stored between the slumbers to Denton's laboratory.

Yes, Denton still decided to experiment with his own body.

At the same time, Denton also wants to start a new experimental project... He wants to directly create a human being who has completed the final evolution.

It is conceivable that no matter which project it is, it will consume a lot of time.

Ironically, however, the operation of the eye-soul system gave Denton ample time to experiment.

……

Denton's experiment started again.

The first is the body strengthening transformation experiment.

Although he has previous research experience, it is not enough to rule out the danger of the experiment.

For Denton, it was countless experiments to pull his body, which had already stepped into the realm of death, back to the world of the living.

But these failures are not without meaning.

Denton's physical body "evolved" during the repeated struggles with the Grim Reaper.

Powerful body and magical ability, extremely strong tolerance to external factors, extracting alone will not age dead cells.

There is no doubt that Denton achieved the final evolution he expected and gained immortality.

However, this success is an accidental product of countless failures, which cannot be understood or reproduced.

After finally getting the immortal body, it would be meaningless if it cannot be used by the people, and Adenis will not stop the eye-soul system because of this...

Thinking of this, Denton began to study how to popularize his physical achievements.

At the same time, Denton's experiment to create the ultimate life form is also going on simultaneously.

That is not a baby that grows from an embryo, but a child that already has a certain human shape from the beginning.

……

In the process of creating the ultimate life form, Denton encountered even greater difficulties and blows than the enhanced transformation experiment.

Those children who were alive one second, all collapsed and died the next second.

"Why? Why didn't it work?"

Denton watched this scene in great pain.

Goyo comforts Denton.

"Summarize why you failed, then reset and start over."

"Well, but before that, they must be buried properly."

Goyo didn't quite understand Denton's approach.

"Just discard it, these are not human beings, they are just failures."

"Even so, it's a valuable sacrifice."

Denton swore he would never let these sacrifices be in vain.

However, what Denton ushered in in the end was only the failure of countless expectations.

Most children die while growing up.

The small number of children who are about to form has brought Denton even greater pain.

once,
A child showed a beautiful smile to Denton with the joy of a new life.

But in the next second, the smile became tattered, and the entire face lost its shape.

"sorry Sorry sorry……!"

Denton, who witnessed this scene with his own eyes, couldn't help crying bitterly.

He wants to end this experiment.

He didn't want those children to continue to suffer like this.

Goyo encouraged Denton.

"It's still close, we can't give up, otherwise, the previous sacrifices of those children will be in vain."

Just like he did when Denton's experiments with physical augmentation failed.

However, after that, how many times did expectations fail, and how many children were sacrificed?
I can't even count them.

And this repetition has been going on for hundreds of years.

Distress, anxiety, pain, sadness... All kinds of negative emotions eroded Denton's heart. At some point, Denton began to target Adnis and Edie who refused to admit his experiment. s.

Subsequently, Denton's goals also began to deviate.

"I must prove to them that my idea is correct! If I use my cells, I will be able to create a perfect ultimate life form!"

Denton added his own cells to the children's initial settings and continued the experiment.

He began to pour more affection into the children, not only the boys, but also the girls, and named one of them Leon and the other Mion.

"Look, it's Dad who came to see you."

Denton considered them his son and daughter.

"By the way, Dad will sing you a lullaby."

Denton sang his usual tune.

"An egg made with a smile is still one step away. With tears and anger, the egg will be broken immediately, injected with blood, and cost life to get it..."

……

Contrary to his ever-failing attempts at creating life, Denton's experiments in figuring out how to apply his physical attributes to other humans have been successful.

He used his own blood and cells to create a strengthening device, and transformed his daughter Chloe's body, allowing her to live under the red sky with her own body.

The same is true for Wudai, who has obtained a strengthened and transformed body.

Then, Denton suggested, it was time for them to find more companions.

Without the consent of Adenis.

Goyo understood what Denton meant.

He is, does he want to transform people to protect this place?

Could it be that he already regards Adnis as a hostile force that needs to be confronted?

Does he want to start a war?
Wudai seems to have seen that tragic future.

But the question is, when did it start?The Denton who would cry and apologize for the sacrifice of one person has become like this...

And what role did he play in it?
Is this kind of life, this kind of future really what he wants?

Wudai was suddenly a little confused.
