Chapter 659: The So-Called 'Humanity' Experiment

Qi Yu has been feeling confused lately, confused as to why her master's temperament suddenly changed dramatically.

Before, Zhang Jie loved to play and pretend, was cheerful and carefree, but ever since that time he almost got attacked, everything has become different.

He has become mature, become silent, and his way of expressing emotions has become much more restrained.

If it weren't for the fact that his pheromones haven't changed, Qi Yu would suspect he had been possessed!

Previously, all of Qi Yu's little tricks for attacking Zhang Jie had completely lost their effect; even striking her signature pose, pointing at the inside of her mouth, was useless—Zhang Jie would just let her get something to eat herself, as he was busy.

The most outrageous thing! It was her Qi Yu's promotion-to-elite guard ceremony! Zhang Jie actually didn't come!!!

He! Actually! Didn't come!!!

Xiao Chongniang, after the ceremony ended, stayed alone feeling sulky, and didn't even go home.

When the water from a faucet turns hot and cold intermittently, that means someone else is using it!

Zhang Jie definitely has someone out there!

But indeed, just as Qi Yu thought, Zhang Jie does have someone out there.

But some of them are enemies.

Today he actually originally planned to go to his own little bug girl's ceremony, Qi Yu's ceremony—how could he possibly not come?

In fact, he did indeed come; he attended Qi Yu's promotion ceremony and personally placed on her a token belonging to a senior investigator.

He and Qi Yu spent a pleasant day together; at night, Qi Yu, like last time with Lei Na, invited him out for a walk.

Of course, he agreed.

They strolled along the riverbank, gazing at this brightly lit city, a strange atmosphere gradually rising.

At that moment, Qi Yu secretly glanced at Zhang Jie, as if making some decision, she fiercely cheered herself up, just as she was about to speak!

In the distance, the sky suddenly burst forth with a blinding light comparable to daylight!!!

This sudden scene completely interrupted Qi Yu's plan; she stared blankly at it, only feeling her body tremble uncontrollably.

The next moment, she stabbed her sharp insect limb into Zhang Jie's abdomen; this sudden strike left him no time to react at all.

In Qi Yu's helpless, shocked gaze, the insect limb stirred, turning his innards into a mess of rotten flesh.

But Zhang Jie didn't die; he merely quickly broke free of Qi Yu's attack and vanished instantly from the spot.

Yes, that's how it happened; later Zhang Jie realized that this phenomenon was the phenomenon accompanying the Mother Goddess's ascension.

Qi Yu was affected by her, directly harming Zhang Jie.

Zhang Jie backtracked, once again losing an unknown number of years of his lifespan.

Likewise, this is the reason he didn't come to Qi Yu's ceremony.

"Sigh, a troublesome autumn."

During this period, Zhang Jie backtracked both major and minor events five or six times; previously he had no idea there were so many disasters around him.

At this moment, Zhang Jie stands upon countless mimetic corpses; opposite him, a worm-woman with not a single good inch of flesh from head to toe glares at him, full of resentment.

Again this human—last time he prevented her from perfectly resurrecting by descending into her vessel; this time they painstakingly gathered a resurrection for her, only for him to destroy it again.

"Why do you! Once again, again and again!!!!"

"You deserve to die!!"

She roared at Zhang Jie; Zhang Jie, expressionless, raised his gun at her.

"I hate you!!!"

Bang!

Mother Goddess fallen.

"...."

"Sigh."

Zhang Jie took out his insulated cup that he carries with him and took a sip; inside was filled with some little red fruit.

He really is feeling a bit weak.

"I don't know if that little brat Qi Yu will be angry..."

The answer is obvious; when he heard the call from his hometown, Zhang Jie finally realized that Qi Yu still hasn't returned home to this day.

It seems she is truly angry; this is still the first time Qi Yu has stayed out all night.

"Sigh."

Zhang Jie sighed again, but it wasn't over; immediately after, the Abnormal Bureau's inquiry communication came in once more.

He briefly explained the situation and, as a side note, learned that the Evil God Fleet on Cloud Star seems poised to attack Azure Star; the Star Fleet's suppressing power over surface lifeforms is easy to imagine, and the pressure within the Abnormal Bureau is likely to explode.

Zhang Jie said he was powerless; the Abnormal Bureau, possessing technology capable of crossing the Star Sea, he didn't believe they lacked the ability to resolve this matter.

Let them worry then! He's going to go coax Xiao Chongniang.

Ding-ling-ling.

The phone rang again; this time it was a message from Ceng Tian.

"Come over?"

"I've found out, some experiments that Si Luo is conducting."

"Um, how to put it... it's kinda... disgusting."

"You'd better come see it in person..."

Zhang Jie felt helpless; fine, the task of coaxing Qi Yu will have to be postponed again.

(There's still a bit left unwritten, folks, wait a moment)

Qi Yu, who hasn't returned home yet, is squatting on a certain riverbank bridge, constantly looking at her phone, waiting for Zhang Jie to come find her actively.

If Zhang Jie comes today, she will ask him out, then right there at the riverbank where she is now, she will pour out her feelings to him.

But Zhang Jie still hasn't sent her any message even until now, except for that time when he left and said sorry to her.

"Psychology Committee...."

"I feel uneasy!"

"Wuuuuu..."

Qi Yu's eyes were filled with tears as she gazed at the rolling river; her inner unease surged like the river's endless flow.

She seemed to have gone through a breakup....

But suddenly Qi Yu realized that this relationship of hers seemed to have never even begun!

She couldn't even count it as a breakup!

Thinking of this, Qi Yu felt even more heartbroken; her wailing spread across a radius of several tens of meters, frightening the nearby residents so much they dared not turn on their lights, fearing some abnormality had appeared here.

Unlike Qi Yu's unease here, Zhang Jie over there felt utterly unwell from head to toe.

Before him lay the various experiments conducted by the Abnormal Bureau over the years.

Here, Zhang Jie finally got to see just how the so-called 'humanity' two characters are written.

What is meant by extracting a specific genetic trait from a living organism and then crossbreeding it with its own offspring over three thousand times?

And what is meant by using cellular-level technology to suture humans with abnormalities together, then observing the offspring's resistance to abnormalities and pollution when he reproduces with another normal human?

This is merely the tip of the iceberg; it's what Zhang Jie picked out and could say from inside, while the rest—by the time your brain realizes you've finished reading that passage—it's already too late.

Zhang Jie felt his sanity points plummet dramatically.

What the hell is this so-called humanity! Before the power structure has even changed, it's already like this!

You're saying your humanism thinks they're doing things too humanely! Typical conservatives think the radicals are too conservative.

"I need to remind you."

"Si Luo is the most likely to become the next veteran chief of the Forbidden Permit."

"It's not easy to deal with him."
