"Yuan Yuan, the data you requested, number 367, is ready. At the same time, the warship Kongo is also ready and can proceed with the next experiment at any time."

A gentle yet slightly timid voice sounded behind Yuan Yuan. He didn't turn around, but kept staring at the computer screen in front of him, looking at the experimental records, trying to find inspiration that could help him break through his current predicament.

Fujisaki wasn't surprised that he didn't receive a response. He had already gotten used to the other's habits during their time together, so he stopped reminding him and just waited silently.

While waiting, Fujisaki couldn't help but drift into a daze as she gazed at the ramrod straight back silhouetted against the cold light of the computer screen.

Just a few days ago, some vague fragments of memory suddenly surfaced in Fujisaki's mind. In these memories, it seemed that he had been in contact with Yuan Yuan before, but at that time, his identity did not seem to be that of an assistant, but a student?

Moreover, it wasn't just that their identities were different; the Yuan Yuan I remembered seemed to have a richer expression, unlike his current cold demeanor.

Fujisaki never told Yuan Yuan about these memories.

Although Fujisaki is a boy, due to factors such as his personality, he likes to pursue romance just like ordinary girls. Therefore, he subjectively defines these fragmented and vague memories that were leaked after being sealed by Yuan Yuan as residual memories from his past life.

Because of the romantic reason of "knowing each other in a past life," Fujisaki subconsciously felt a strange fondness for Yuan Yuan, who always had a cold face and seemed impossible to like.

How romantic it is for people who knew each other in a past life to meet again in the next life, and for one of them to even regain some memories from that past life.

[Furthermore, judging from the school uniform style, it seems that in my previous life I wasn't the troublesome male I am now, but a female. How wonderful! If only I were a female in this life, I wouldn't have to suffer from the frustrating thing of being male but not being boyish enough.]

Feeling a pang of emotion, Fujisaki sighed unconsciously.

"You're comparing me to someone you know, and you're subconsciously concluding that I'm not as good as him."

Suddenly, a cold voice rang out in front of Fujisaki, startling her into a scream as she was still lost in thought.

After regaining his composure, Fujisaki realized that Yuan Yuan had already walked up to him without him noticing, but because he was distracted, he hadn't noticed.

Ignoring everything else, the naturally timid Fujisaki immediately bowed her head and apologized.

"I'm sorry, Yuan Yuan, I was lost in thought."

Yuan Yuan ignored Fujisaki's apology, his cold eyes fixed on her, his voice even colder than usual as he asked...

"Tell me who you're comparing me to, and how you came to the conclusion that I'm inferior to him."

Although Yuan Yuan's tone was cold and seemed devoid of any emotion, Fujisaki inexplicably detected a hint of annoyance in his voice.

She blinked, then gave a timid smile, asking in a somewhat ingratiating tone,

"Um, can I choose not to tell you?"

Fujisaki's hesitation seemed to fuel Yuan Yuan's anger. He stared at Fujisaki silently for a long time, and only when she was about to give up did he speak coldly.

"Of course you can, but if you don't say so, you'll be the one to conduct the artillery tests on the three sea fogs today."

Immediately, Fujisaki's face fell. He was just an ordinary human. Although he was a little smarter, if he were hit by the sea fog's cannons, he would definitely die.

With a pained expression, Fujisaki revealed the secret she had been keeping for several days.

After listening to Fujisaki's words, Yuan Yuan fell completely silent. He walked back to the computer and sat down, then began to rub his temples vigorously, so hard that they turned pale.

Yuan Yuan naturally didn't believe in things like past lives or reincarnation, and he hadn't forgotten how Fujisaki had appeared before him. The defense system he'd set up around his residence was perfectly functioning, yet Fujisaki, just an ordinary person, inexplicably bypassed it and appeared in front of his house. If it were anyone else approaching his residence without permission, they would have been riddled with bullets long ago.

Even a fool could figure out that Fujisaki was the mastermind behind bringing him to the isolated island and trapping him there.

Now that Fujisaki's identity has been confirmed, these memories are worth considering.

Logically speaking, the current situation should be that Fujisaki's memories were previously sealed, but now something went wrong with the seal, and some of her memories have leaked out.

However, because of the identity of Yuan Yuan [the teacher] in Fujisaki's memory, Yuan Yuan was somewhat unsure of the authenticity of the memory. He did not think that he would suddenly have the idea of ​​becoming a teacher someday.

[Leaving aside the authenticity of the memory, the current concern is the significance of its appearance. If it's a leaked, sealed memory, why would it leak? This isn't a fairy tale; the seal can't break so easily. Was this a warning from the person behind the scenes? Telling me they're running out of patience?]

What would happen if the guy behind it all lost patience? Would he just kill me? Abandon me? Or do something even more ruthless?

[If the seal hadn't been breached, and these memories had recently been directly written into Fujisaki's mind, then the implications behind this are even more worthy of deep consideration.]

Yuan Yuan tapped his fingers lightly on the table, a cold and stern look suddenly appearing on his face. He gave the order.

"Pass down the notice: the experimental progress must be accelerated. Not only King Kong, but also the Tianlong experiment, which was scheduled for eleven days later, should be brought forward to today. At the same time, the marine exploration mission and the deep-sea resource exploration mission are temporarily suspended. All research projects should be carried out ahead of schedule, and the parallel calculation core auxiliary experiment should be started."

Yuan Yuan's grim expression while he was deep in thought had already made Fujisaki quite uneasy, but when he suddenly broke the silence and spoke loudly, he startled Fujisaki even more.

Fortunately, Fujisaki reacted quickly. He immediately adjusted his mindset, and without asking Yuan Yuan's reason for doing so, he responded with a "yes" and turned to walk towards the remote communication station on the side to begin recalling the Tianlong and the Sea Fog Fleet that went out to carry out exploration missions.

As Yuan Yuan watched Fujisaki sitting at the liaison desk, skillfully issuing command after command, a shadow fell over his eyes.

"Although I don't know the reason, it seems that a big change is about to happen. This state of being out of control is really disgusting."

Chapter 139 Shock

Humanity is once again gripped by panic.

When Gastrea ravaged the land, humans used megalithic monuments made of holmium to drive away the Gastrea and ensure the safety of their settlements.

When the chimeras ravaged the Earth, humans had those who possessed the serpentine markings and passed the Hell Test to drive them away and ensure human safety.

But when the race called Elves appeared before the world with overwhelming power, humanity despairingly discovered that they had no means to deal with them.

Neither holmium nor snakeskin could deter the elves. These creatures, with their handsome appearances yet more terrifying than chimeras, seemed to fear nothing.

The only thing that could bring humans any relief was that these elves did not seem to intend to attack human settlements. All humans could only pray silently that the elves would not attack their settlements, placing their lives entirely on the elves' whims.

But just when humanity was focusing all its attention on the elves, a race forgotten by humanity launched a surprise attack on Tokyo, one of the three major settlements.

【Monsters】are a race that appeared after Gastrea, unknown to the general public, yet instilling extreme fear in the human elite.

Each monster is overwhelmingly powerful to humans, and for a long time, weapons for monsters were a key research and development project in human armed forces development plans.

However, when the chimeras arrived, these powerful monsters, with their bizarre abilities unimaginable to humans, forcefully attracted the attention of all mankind, causing people to forget about the monsters.

However, the monsters did not disappear because humans forgot about them. Led by three monsters with snake patterns, they thrived in the depths of the forest and should not have appeared in front of humans for at least twenty years.

However, due to a great battle with the elves, the monster race suffered heavy losses, with a large number of its core forces killed in action. Furthermore, Gastrea's reproductive capacity was extremely low, and the monsters that mutated from Gastrea had an even lower reproductive capacity that was almost negligible.

If we try to make up for the population loss of the monster race by relying on natural reproduction, it will probably take hundreds of years to achieve anything.

Therefore, one night, the leader of the monster race, Gura, led thirty monsters in a fierce attack on Tokyo. With a barrage of thorns, they easily shattered the giant stone monument on the outskirts of the settlement, which was used to drive away Gastrea.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Bi, who was traveling with Gu Luo, was again unable to recognize reality. Seeing that the attackers were monsters that could use supernatural powers, he mistook them for synthetic beasts. He stood at the front of the crowd and tried to use the snake pattern to disperse the enemy. The snake pattern owner knocked out the prisoners.

After destroying all of Tokyo's defenses and counterattacks, the monsters did not massacre humans. Instead, they spoke in human language, loudly commanding and gathering all the humans in the settlement.

Subsequently, the corpses of the monsters killed in the previous war with the elves were brought over. Guluo personally operated the machine, using a large number of thorns above the heads of the crowd to shred the monster corpses into pieces, raining down a bloody rain of flesh and bone fragments upon the humans.

The monsters' bodies possessed both the life essence necessary for developing abilities and highly infectious bodily fluids similar to Gastrea. This rain of blood, created from the monsters' corpses, infected hundreds of thousands of humans, turning them into Gastrea, with the exception of a few who died.

With such a vast Gastrea population, quite a few Gastrea managed to obtain and utilize the life essence, mutating into numerous monsters and making up for the population deficit caused by the war. However, it will likely take some time before the monsters can regain their pre-war strength, once the newborn monsters have developed their abilities to a certain extent.

After this incident, humanity discovered that besides the elves, there was another race that was not afraid of the giant stone tablets or the serpent patterns. Panic gripped the land; everyone was filled with terror, as if the end of the world was imminent.

If humans didn't understand how terrifying a race that wasn't afraid of monoliths and serpent patterns was when they were on guard against the elves, they completely understood after seeing their three remaining settlements shrink to two overnight.

It is precisely because of this understanding that fear arises. When fear reaches its extreme, it becomes hysterical. People in both settlements went mad, and in just one night, the number of ordinary people and police officers who died from gang fights exceeded four figures.

The lower-level humans are restless, and the upper-level humans are also unstable. Eric, the leader of [Troya], sent a distress signal to [Redemption], hoping that the Child of Monsters could help humanity and completely destroy the monster race before its strength is fully restored.

Because of Yuan Yuan's demand that "only one intelligent race will be allowed to dominate Earth after three years," Hongye has been looking for opportunities to attack other races. This time, she has the chance to destroy the monster race, and naturally she will not let it go. Eric's request for help just gave her a reason to send troops.

However, what Hongye and Eric didn't know was that while they were discussing this, a jet-black Dosak eight-eyed lion entered the monster's lair. Half a day later, thanks to monsters possessing earth-type powers, all the monsters withdrew from the monster's lair from underground, and at the same time, a large number of Dosak eight-eyed lions migrated from the neighboring forests into the monster's lair.

Although the number of Demon Children capable of demonization was already quite large, Momiji's most valued members were undoubtedly the first batch to achieve demonization. Considering that the attack on the Demon's Nest required cooperation with humans, Momousagi, who harbored extreme hatred for humans, was unsuitable. Therefore, the task of leading the attack on the Demon's Nest fell to Gold Crown.

Led by the Golden Crown, a large number of Demon Children rushed into the forest where the Demon Nest was located. Before even encountering any enemies, they had all transformed into demons, roaring as they tried to tear their enemies apart.

However, when the demonized children of monsters and a large human army rushed into the depths of the forest, they discovered that what awaited them there was not the weakened monster race, but a large number of Dosak eight-eyed lions, and the leading male lion was that terrifying being with a jet-black coat who had successively killed the level five Gastrea creatures [Aries], [Gemini], and [Leo].

The terror of the chimeras goes without saying. Without the protection of the serpent pattern, even though Gold Crown and the others chose to flee without hesitation, everyone who entered the forest suffered a devastating blow. Not a single human escaped, and among the demon children, only Gold Crown and a few others who were fast enough to escape survived.

The Demon Children who went to attack the Demon Nest with Golden Crown were the backbone of the pro-human forces in the settlement of Redemption. After suffering heavy losses, the forces that rejected humans finally gained the upper hand. Although they were not able to enslave all the humans in Redemption because of Momiji's insistence, they finally cut off the possibility of cooperating with humans.

Chapter 140 Scheme

The owner of the serpent pattern can only protect their immediate subordinates. If they send some of their subordinates on missions to distant places, these mission takers away from them after a certain distance, changing them from "protected" to "unprotected." The ubiquitous chimeras will not spare any of the unprotected.

This is a rule for the use of snake patterns that was discovered by snake pattern owners shortly after the purpose of snake patterns was discovered. It is because of this rule that the situation where settlements are still scattered all over the world, and where settlements can rest easy and not worry about being invaded by chimeras as long as the snake pattern owner says a word, has not occurred.

It was precisely because of this rule that when the leader of the Dosaka Eight-Eyed Lions came to him with a cooperative plan to have the weakened monsters withdraw from the monster's lair and have the stronger chimeras confront and annihilate the invaders, Guluo agreed without much consideration.

Anyway, Gu Luo, Zhu Bi, and Bai Lu all have snake patterns. As long as any one of the three is still in the clan, there is no need to worry about this black lion attacking the demon clan.

On the contrary, each of the human and monster children's factions has only one serpent mark, and the owner of the serpent mark will not leave the settlement rashly. This means that those humans and monster children who step out of the settlement and head to the monster's nest become "unprotected" who can be attacked by chimeras.

Judging from the usual behavior of chimeras, they would definitely kill these unprotected people without any mercy.

As it turned out, the eight-eyed lions of Dosaka did not disappoint Guro. Before long, the majestic black lion, covered in blood, reappeared before him with its pride.

"I think those people will never understand until their deaths why the Dosak lion pride, which was observed to be tens of kilometers away, suddenly appeared in the monster's lair. They also never imagined that intelligent individuals would appear among the synthetic beasts, which have always been regarded as irrational life forms."

Looking at the Dosak eight-eyed lion squatting in front of him, its mouth and paws covered in blood and its body completely black, Guro couldn't help but sigh.

Dosak, who had just led his pride to kill all the humans and most of the monster's offspring who had entered the monster's lair, calmly licked his injured right paw, unmoved by Guro's感慨 (sentiments/reflections), and gave a perfunctory reply.

"Synthetic beasts are prone to mutation, so it's not surprising that they might mutate into intelligent individuals."

Gulu grinned, unconcerned by Dosak's blatantly dismissive attitude, and instead turned his gaze to Dosak's injured right paw, asking with apparent curiosity,

"As the strongest member of the Dosak Eight-Eyed Lion clan, and even using the name Dosak directly, how could you possibly be harmed by those guys?"

Dosak glanced indifferently at Guluo, then lowered his head again, licked his wound a couple more times, and finally answered.

"Of the people I just killed, three were at the same level as the red dog next to you, and the other one, although not as good as you, could still easily kill that red dog and escaped."

Upon hearing this, Gu Luo's pupils contracted. Of course, he knew that the red dog the other party was referring to was Zhu Bi, but it was precisely because he knew that he was shocked.

Although Guluo never underestimated the strength of the chimeras, and even less dared to underestimate the strength of the leader of the Dosak Eight-Eyed Lion, who was among the top chimeras, the actual combat data still made him feel a little scared.

Facing three Zhu Bi and an enemy capable of killing them, Dosak only had one wound on his right claw, demonstrating his formidable strength.

Silently assessing Dosak's true strength, Guluo's expression turned grave.

Seeing the worry in Guluo's heart, Dosak calmly spoke and explained softly,

"I'm sure you've already received Lord Yuan Yuan's notification, that you must become the only intelligent race on Earth within three years. Let me make this clear: in the entire Dosak Eight-Eyed Lion Clan, including myself, there are only three intelligent individuals, which doesn't qualify us as an intelligent race at all. So you don't need to worry about me competing with you for this goal."

Hearing this, the heavy look on Guluo's face eased slightly, but he still couldn't completely believe Dosak's words. He didn't understand why Dosak would offer to help him fight against the children of humans and demons if it weren't for the competition for the only intelligent race.

"Because we come from hell, we yearn to return to hell. If I understand Lord Yuan Yuan's orders correctly, the only way for us, who cannot exist as intelligent races, to pass this test is to choose an intelligent race and then help him win the last spot."
