Chapter 882: Rejuvenation: Restoring Youth, the House of Evolution's Most Useful Technique

"What? You want me to restore Mosquito Girl to her state from the Human Era?"

Dr. Jinos was somewhat dazed.

"Right, a mosquito's hands and feet are really not too convenient for daily life."

Arriving at the House of Evolution's new base, an old civilian house building, Broly explained the reason for coming here.

"But, Mosquito Girl never had a so-called Human Era state to begin with, so how do you expect me to restore her?"

Dr. Jinos showed a troubled expression.

"?"

Broly looked at Mosquito Girl with doubt.

"Dr. Jinos, could you be mistaken? How come I remember having a Human Era state?"

Mosquito Girl also looked at the white-coated doctor with some doubt.

"Impossible. Your birth process was all conducted by me alone. Gene fusion, creating the embryo, cultivating it into a complete adult body in the cultivation tank — every step, I have detailed records. From the moment of your birth, you were in the form of Mosquito Girl. You never had the posture of a normal human."

Dr. Jinos swore solemnly.

"If she never had a human posture, then how does Mosquito Girl have memories from the Human Era?"

Mosquito Girl is now his wife, so Broly naturally believes Mosquito Girl a bit more. He frowned at Jinos, suspecting this scientist was worried he would settle old scores over Mosquito Girl's modified body.

Thinking it over, Broly gave this person a guarantee: "Dr. Jinos, Mosquito Girl currently has no intention of hating you, so you don't need to worry that I'll do something to you just because you transformed the once-human Mosquito Girl into her current appearance."

【Nani, the meaning of these words is: if Mosquito Girl hates me, you'll do something to me, right?!】

Dr. Jinos complained inwardly, but on his face, sweat beaded on his forehead as he defended himself: "I'm truly not lying. I swear, if I'm lying, then right now I'll immediately suffer gene chaos and die before you."

"So, Mosquito Girl truly never had a Human Era posture?"

"Truly never."

"Then the memories are————"

"I speculate that they should come from the genetic memory of the human gene portion inside her body. Just like how some people clearly never did a certain thing, but when doing it for the first time, they have a sense of familiarity, a feeling of having done it before.

Mosquito Girl, you say you have Human Era memories. Can you now recall what exactly those memories contain?"

"Uh——"

"Is it that you can't recall any details at all?"

"Mm."

""

"This is normal. Because those familiar-seeming memories don't belong to you at all, but to the gene provider of the human genes inside your body."

"Alright then, Dr. Jinos, I believe your words, but what I want to know is whether you can help Mosquito Girl have hands and feet?"

"If it's just purely having limbs with functions similar to hands and feet, that's actually not difficult."

Dr. Jinos answered.

"How to do it?"

Broly asked.

"Human modification, amputation, replace with mechanical limbs imitating human hands and feet."

"That way, Mosquito Girl wouldn't have feeling in her hands and feet, right? Isn't there a better method?"

Broly frowned and asked.

"If possible, I'd prefer Mosquito Girl to have normal hands and feet, so when I hold her hand, she can feel it."

"Mr. Broly, may I ask presumptuously, what is the relationship between Mosquito Girl and you now?"

"She's already agreed to be my wife."

Jinos: "————"

At the side, the Armored Gorilla gaped.

After a while, this gorilla came to his senses and applauded.

"Mosquito Girl, congratulations."

As a fellow experimental subject of the House of Evolution, Mosquito Girl's current circumstances made the Armored Gorilla offer heartfelt blessings.

"Thank you."

Mosquito Girl thanked him, then hid behind Broly, seeming a bit embarrassed.

"If it's about having normal hands and feet with sensation, the first method would have to rely on biological limb transplant, but that involves rejection reaction issues.

Unfortunately, the provider of the female human genes inside Mosquito Girl's body already passed away normally many years ago.

And back then, the batch of egg cells I purchased from her, the only ones remaining, were also destroyed together when the House of Evolution was destroyed previously.

Now, even if we wanted to clone a clone with no rejection reaction to serve as limb transplant material for Mosquito Girl, it's not too likely."

"Since you said first method, that means you have other methods?"

"There are other methods, just very difficult, and I'm also not certain if they can actually be realized."

Dr. Jinos nodded, but didn't make absolute promises.

"What method?"

Broly pressed.

"Besides possessing mosquito genes, Mosquito Girl's body actually also has stick insect genes, and stick insect genes can let her regenerate severed limbs.

So, in theory, we can amputate her limbs and let them regenerate, making her grow a pair of normal human hands and feet herself."

"Theory is like that, but reality?"

"Reality is, when stick insect genes regenerate hands and feet, they prioritize choosing the mosquito genes, which are also insect genes, to regenerate.

Wanting to interfere with this point, I currently don't have a good method either. After all, biological genes aren't something I can just program whenever I want to program; this requires a large amount of experiments and research."

Dr. Jinos shrugged.

"In other words, if we can block out the mosquito gene, can the stick insect gene choose to use human genes to regenerate limbs?"

"Yes, more or less that's the meaning."

Dr. Jinos nodded, looking at the thoughtful Broly, and his heart stirred; he couldn't help but ask: "Do you perhaps have a way to help block out the mosquito genes inside Mosquito Girl's body?"

"I'm not sure if it's possible, but I have something in my hand that can expel foreign objects from the human body."

Broly answered while pulling out the Horse Talisman.

"This is?"

Jinos looked at the stone block that suddenly appeared in Broly's hand, his face showing confusion.

"This is the Horse Talisman, a special magic item from other worlds where rule power is concretized; its function is to heal and restore the state of living or non-living things, and it can eliminate all abnormal influences produced by external forces."

"It's just that I'm not sure whether it can help block out Mosquito Girl's mosquito genes, nor do I know if blocking out the mosquito genes will have any bad effects on Mosquito Girl."

After hearing this, Dr. Jinos, although not quite believing that a stone could have such an effect, still gave his own advice: "We can try it first on other individuals who have undergone gene fusion."

"But Dr. Jinos, wasn't our original House of Evolution destroyed? Where do we get gene-fused individuals now?"

""

Armored Gorilla subconsciously asked, just as the other three all looked at him at the same time, which made him realize too late that there was actually another individual fused with genes of a different species present here.

"Can I still walk off the experimental table alive?"

The Armored Gorilla lying on the experimental bed asked with a mournful face.

"Rest assured, I also know a bit of resurrection magic; you are doing experiments to pave the way for Mosquito Girl, so even if you really die, I will resurrect you."

Hearing Broly's words, the Armored Gorilla who had survived Saitama and Genos's hands had a face that barely improved a little.

"Ah, so Mr. Broly also knows the trick of resurrecting others? If possible, please do let me witness it."

Dr. Jinos seemed somewhat interested in resurrection magic.

"Ah, Doctor, I am loyal to you."

The gorilla's heart rose again.

"I know, but what I want to know more is, after an individual is resurrected, in what state will they be resurrected? Will it be the state after being modified before resurrection, or can they be directly restored to the state before modification—"

Armored Gorilla:

"

【Do I have to die once again?】

Before Armored Gorilla could say anything else, the Horse Talisman activated by Broly shot out a beam of light onto him.

And Broly, who activated the Horse Talisman, also sensed a vague feeling of choice from this Armored Gorilla, this gene-modified beast.

Somewhat unfamiliar, yet somewhat familiar; after thinking about it carefully, Broly discovered that this vague feeling of choice was somewhat similar to his own transformation feeling.

One leaned toward humanity, the other toward bestiality; the Horse Talisman seemed to be letting him choose which one to serve as the main subject of the restoration target.

Regarding this, Broly chose the human one, and after making the choice, the Armored Gorilla lying on the experimental table with his hands and feet bound by iron handcuffs soon began to tremble.

"Ah, body, so itchy—"

Armored Gorilla struggled, but could not move.

"This is—evolution?"

Dr. Jinos widened his eyes, just seeing the Armored Gorilla on the bed slowly shrinking in size, while the dense black hair on his body was gradually fading away.

When the effect of the Horse Talisman disappeared, the Armored Gorilla originally on the experimental bed had turned into an ape-man with somewhat protruding cheekbones,

and somewhat dense hair on his body.

"Wrong, this is not evolution, but rather human genes covering over the original chimpanzee genes inside him, thereby producing changes in appearance."

"So, have I become human? By the way, can you let me go now? I want to scratch my itch."

The ape-man's words were ignored by no one.

At this moment, Dr. Jinos was muttering the words 【this is not scientific at all】 in his mouth.

The actual effect of the Horse Talisman brought a shock to this scientist that was greater than the shock Saitama had previously brought him.

Dr. Jinos had more or less reached a conclusion about Saitama's situation: he was a guy who had unlocked his limiter but had not expanded the limiter's threshold, barely still within his understanding.

But the situation with the Horse Talisman was very unscientific, exceeding his understanding.

"Of course it's not scientific, because this is magic; by the way, can you confirm his condition now?"

Broly interrupted Dr. Jinos's chatter, pointing at the ape-man on the table and urging him to speak.

"Ah, yes, Armored Gorilla, how do you feel now?"

"Except for some itchiness in my body, I temporarily have no other feelings."

Dr. Jinos gave Armored Gorilla a full-body examination and found that the other's physical quality had decreased somewhat, but his brain had improved quite a lot.

"From what we can see now, he has no problems; it's just that some characteristics of the remaining chimpanzee genes still linger, such as dense body hair, making him look like an ape-man on the outside."

o

Broly stayed at the new base of the House of Evolution for a day, and when he came out again, a blonde, red-eyed woman who looked very much like Mosquito Girl was by his side.

She had normal human hands and feet, but on her back were thin, transparent mosquito wings like fairy wings, and on her head was something that looked like a helmet but was actually a special organ for mosquito blood-sucking and perception.

Mosquito Girl had become more human, but still retained some mosquito characteristics, looking like a female fairy transformed from a mosquito demon.

"Mosquito Girl has become like this, so the blood sac definitely cannot be transplanted; then, do we still need to clone her clone to take the blood sac?"

"Let's forget about that."

"Then Mr. Broly, do you have anything else you need me to do?"

Time was pushed slightly forward; after Mosquito Girl successfully became a female fairy, Dr. Jinos realized his role was over.

He came somewhat nervously to ask Broly, this Gold Master who had invested money in him, if there were any other orders.

Of course, mainly he was worried that after losing his usefulness, he might be silenced; how to put it, this was Dr. Jinos judging a Saiyan's belly with a petty man's heart.

But there's no way around it, because many evil organizations in this world, after achieving their own purposes, will do this for confidentiality work.

Even Dr. Jinos's original House of Evolution occasionally does this; if they don't do this, it's probably because Dr. Jinos himself feels it's unnecessary.

"I heard Dr. Jinos, you changed from a senile old man back to a young appearance; I don't know if you can help me concoct some potions that can restore youth?"

"Wrong, just this?"

"Yes, this is quite important to me. I have some wives in other worlds; although most are now young and beautiful, and some are even immortal and never age, there are also some who age normally. I hope to obtain your youth-restoring potion."

"If it's just that, then no problem, leave it to me. However, the youth serum I developed—I can only guarantee its effectiveness on normal humans in the world I'm in. As for whether it works on humans or non-human species from other worlds, I don't know."

"It doesn't matter, just go ahead and prepare it."

"Alright, also, my youth serum's essence is to reset a person's cellular age. In other words, this isn't a single injection that makes one forever young and never ages. Those who use the serum will still grow old. As for whether those who grow old again after using the serum can continue using it to restore youth, and whether their bodies will develop drug resistance rendering the youth serum useless, I don't know these yet, but they need time to prove—"

Dr. Jinos made many advance declarations in advance, but none of it hindered Broly from placing what might be this world's one and only business order for a youth restoration serum on this side.
