Ling Cage: I am a spiritual master, devouring source matter to become a god.

Tali continued, "Back then, the Hela Empire proposed the Digital Immortality Project, for which they built a supercomputer and a super server. Although the Digital Immortality Project failed, this supercomputer should have survived. If we can find the remnants of Hela, we will definitely be able to find this supercomputer."

Hearing Tully's words, Jing Yuan said, "Dr. Tully, I'll take care of the supercomputer. But before that, I hope you can wake him up."

"I just have to try."

“Okay, thank you!” Jingyuan said, “Then I will arrange for you to stay at the Lighthouse first. The Genes who are with you, and the assistants you need, I can bring them over. The rest of you will stay on the Dawn. Dr. Carrie will assist you throughout the process.”

Tali nodded and said, "I need two assistants, Quinti and Lola."

"Okay, I'll go and bring them over right away."

“And…” Tali called out to Jingyuan, but seemed hesitant to speak.

"What else?"

Seeing that Tali was looking around hesitantly, Jingyuan smiled and said, "You can just say it."

Tali hesitated for a moment, then said directly, "More than half of us, the remnants of the Zeon, want to break away from the rule of the Bria. May I ask you to take them to the Lighthouse? We can help you!"

"Take in the remnants of Zeon?"

Upon hearing Tara's words, Jingnan quickly replied, "With the size of our lighthouse, we can't accommodate so many more people, and besides..."

Jingyuan raised his hand to stop Jingnan from continuing. He looked at Tali and said, "You've come here and seen it for yourself. Our lighthouse's survival mode is simply to hide in the sky, which is why we are extremely short of supplies."

Your lives exist on the ground. Because you've fused with Mana genes, you can temporarily escape the Devouring Beasts.

So even if your people don't go up to the lighthouse, they can be guaranteed safety for the time being.

If you're only worried about Buria's rule, I can help you kill him.

However, the consequences were predictable.

Although the Buryat rule was harsh, it ensured that the tribe remained stable.

Kill him, and the problem will remain the same regardless of whether there is a new ruler.

In this apocalypse, there is only one reason for authoritarian and oppressive rule: the environment.

Only by changing the environment and eliminating the mana ecosystem can we all survive.

If not, then whether in heaven or on earth, death is inevitable!

Since Jingyuan had put it this way, Tali couldn't force him to do anything.

Jingyuan continued, "I know you want to restore the Zeon people to human form. Once you've perfected the plan for restoring them to human form, we can try containing them in small, multiple batches."

"Restore them to human form?" Tali asked, puzzled. "I didn't intend to restore the Zeon to human form!"

"Huh?" Jing Yuan was a little surprised. Wasn't her research about restoring the Zeon's ecological chimera to human form?

"So what kind of research are you doing?"

"It's evolution! I'm researching a new evolutionary approach. If this approach succeeds, we can not only restore our human appearance but also become superhuman. I believe this is the direction of human evolution!"

Jingyuan was confused and subconsciously said, "Tumen said that you have the technology to restore eco-chimeras to humans. I only thought of asking you to come over after hearing him say that."

“Tumen only told me that you want to restore this eco-chimera to human form. The technology isn’t difficult; it just requires tools to improve efficiency and success rates.” Tali looked at Mark.

"Hmph! This guy's a bit dishonest!" Jing Yuan looked at Tali. "Let me guess, your plan won't work on people like Bria, right? That's the root of your problem!"

"Yes. Bria and the others have exhausted their potential, and their bodies have suffered irreversible damage."

For them, the only way to further increase their strength is to evolve into a Devouring Beast.

Jing Yuan didn't understand. "You think that transforming into a Devouring Beast is also a form of evolution?"

Tali nodded. "The Devouring Beasts have existed on our Earth for longer than human history! In fact, many of our human genes are originally from Mana creatures."

Tali looked at Mark again, "You said he was originally a clone of a Mana creature that had its non-human genes removed."

That means the genes of the Mana organisms contain human genes.

Dr. Carrie, who had been standing nearby, said, "Mark's genes are only 94.6% similar to human genes. Biologically, he is not the same species as us; he only looks similar."

Tali nodded and said, “We are like him, not the other way around. Many creatures on Earth have the genes of the Mana. Over countless years, they have been integrated into our evolution.”

"So you think we can merge with them?" Jing Yuan asked.

Chapter 261 Finding Clues from Robots

Tara shook her head again. "No! That's what I thought when I first proposed the gene fusion plan. But over the years, I've realized that we can't fuse with them. But we can evolve by following their methods."

The Angel Potion and Miracle Potion were created through research on Mana organisms.

Essentially, these drugs contributed to human evolution to some extent.

The gene optimization scheme I'm researching also uses the power of technology to optimize human genes.

"But in the past, I took some detours."

After finishing his sentence, Tali looked at Jingyuan and the others from the Lighthouse, "If this plan succeeds, you too can evolve into superhumans!"

Jing Yuan remained unmoved. Firstly, he was a superhuman himself, and secondly, he knew that having more superhumans wouldn't make a difference.

The ancient immortal civilization was powerful enough, right? Yet it was still destroyed by Mana.

Before Jing Yuan could speak, Tali continued, "Of course, this was my previous idea. As you said, our primary problem is solving the ecological problem. If we can't solve the ecological problem, no matter how strong an individual's abilities are, it's useless! Humanity will eventually face extinction."

Everyone sighed.

Although there is a concrete plan now, no one is sure whether it will succeed.

Jingyuan asked, "If we wanted to transform Mark into a real Mana creature, could you do it?"

These words drew everyone's attention to Jing Yuan.

Tali hesitated for a moment. "That's actually a bit difficult. The reason I can remove non-human genes is because we know what human genes are like. But to restore his original genes, I don't know his original gene sequence, so it will be very difficult." Tali looked at Jing Yuan. "You want to transform him into a complete Mana creature?"

“Mark and I discussed it beforehand. We would only resort to Bai Yuekui’s Bloodstained Strategy if the Soul Extinction Plan failed. I never expected things to turn out this way…” Jing Yuan looked at Mark, paused for a moment, “Let’s wake Mark up first and see what he’s willing to do!”

Tali nodded and said, "I will do my best."

Jingyuan expressed his gratitude to Tali, and then left the Ecological Research Institute with Jingnan.

Jingnan walked beside Jingyuan and said, "I thought you would agree to let him take those people to the lighthouse."

"It's not impossible to bring them up, but I don't trust them yet. I'm not worried about them causing problems while I'm here, but I need to go find a supercomputer next, and I'm afraid no one can keep them in check when I'm not around."

"That's right!"

Jingyuan said, "Arrange for a few people to keep a close watch on those Genes. If there are any unusual movements, let me know."

"it is good!"

The Gene people are different from the villagers of the Peach Blossom World.

The villagers of Taoyuan live in a simple environment, and the people are simple too.

However, the environment in which the Gene people live is very complex.

That Tu Men didn't tell Jing Yuan the truth.

In Tumen's view, Tali's genetic evolution plan was a good thing, but he dared not let Jingyuan know about it.

But Jingyuan didn't care at all.

"By the way, when they brought the spaceship back, did they bring back the robots from the spaceship? I left one intact robot behind."

Jingnan nodded, "I brought them all back!"

“Take me to see it!”

Jingyuan and Jingnan left the Institute of Ecology and went straight into the Research Department.

There aren't many people left in the research department these days; most of them have gone to the Dawn to build the Soul-Destroying Tower.

Jingnan led Jingyuan to a storage room.

That's right, it's just a storage room!

Several robots were left here.

Jingnan said helplessly, "We tried to modify the machine's core, but unfortunately we didn't succeed!"

"Is their technology difficult to crack?"

Jingnan nodded. "Although our Lighthouse has a lot of technology from the old world, there are still some gaps in its technology."

"Sigh!" Jing Yuan sighed deeply. "Now we're basically certain that these robots belong to the Hela people. I originally wanted to use these robots to find the Hela people, but unfortunately..."

Jingnan asked, "Among those remnants of the Zeon, are there any computer experts?"

"The Genes engineers specialize in biological technologies and are not proficient in computer technology. Among the settlements left from the Old World, which one still possesses computer technology?"

"Then we'll have to ask the people of Dragonbone Village for help!"

Jingyuan looked at Jingnan, "Going to Bai Yuekui for help again?"

"No need to look for Bai Yuekui! We have people from Dragon Bone Village right here."

"What?" Jing Yuan was somewhat surprised. Why were there people from Dragon Bone Village on the lighthouse?

Jingnan explained, "Before you came back, several people from Dragon Bone Village were helping us build the Soul Extinction Tower. One of them was named Mu Qing, you should know her. She was among them when we went to the Great New World."

“I remember. The girl who was with Tasia back then.”
