Chapter 597

In this way, it makes sense.

Assuming the "Supreme Heaven Parasite" is a genuine Supreme Divinity, then its host, that is, the host parasitized by the Supreme Divinity...

In this sense, its hosts are likely to be terrifying and fearsome existences.

As long as no more Supreme Divinities appear on Jarilo-VI, it will be fine.

First the "Old Man of the Turbid Sea," then the "Fifth Starfish"... this planet is small, so please, Supreme Divinities, move elsewhere.

Just as Bronya was praying devoutly, the "Containment-3396" archive turned to the next page.

And this part also proved that a significant portion of her guess was correct.

【Strategic Guidance Protocol:】

【Due to the physical and abstract contagiousness exhibited by "Containment-3396," comprehensive containment has not yet been achieved.】

【The central location of "Containment-3396" is designated as "3396 Zone," contested by multiple organizations (including GOIs, Serpent's Hand, and the Department of Abnormal Incidents). It has been declared a neutral, non-armed zone through multi-party agreements to prevent global war and veil-breaking scenarios.】

【To limit public exposure and prevent more "Containment-3396" infections from occurring within the global population, the capture of all "Containment-3396-01" entities has been deemed a top priority.】

【All captured individuals must be contained in Level 4 hazardous biological containment cells, reinforced with an "Atlas-style Anti-Anomalous Rune Array."】

【If 15% of the population is infected, refer to document "3396-Alabaster" for details regarding personnel evacuation, regional isolation facility locations, and subsequent changes to Foundation primary tasks.】

"Herta" Space Station.

"GOI... contested..."

Seeing this data, Asta frowned.

The "Supreme Heaven Parasite" is clearly a Supreme Divinity, and it parasitizes humans and other creatures.

In other words, it must be the manifestation of some abstract concept, and it is very dangerous.

But such a dangerous containment object would actually make the major anomalous organizations of the Foundation civilization compete to bring it under their control.

There is only one explanation that makes sense.

——The benefits gained from obtaining the "Supreme Heaven Parasite" far exceed the costs of the struggle and the costs required to control the "Supreme Heaven Parasite."

So, what level of benefit would it be to make these organizations willing to risk internal war within civilization just to get their hands on it?

Asta lowered her head, transferring the history that happened in the distant past to the IPC.

Hmm... the most special thing about the "Supreme Heaven Parasite" is that it can parasitize and modify biological organisms.

And the humans after modification rarely have changes in their mentality...

"Could it be this?"

Asta felt she had faintly grasped a clue.

If the "Supreme Heaven Parasite" could help those organizations mass-produce soldiers with some traits of a Supreme Divinity...

Or, it could significantly change the physique of the parasitized, or even allow them to obtain immortality...

Then, the reaction of these organizations is not surprising.

After all, the Xianzhou Alliance traveled the star sea to seek immortality for their Emperor, eventually finding the "Abundance" Aeon, "Yaoshi."

Even today, so many people know that the "longevity" bestowed by "Abundance" has very strong side effects, and will even cause a person's body and spirit to mutate.

Yet countless people still go to the Xianzhou to seek the medicine of longevity, and even imitate the Xianzhou, searching for "Abundance" in the star sea, praying for their blessing.

"After going crazy, there is still a chance to wake up again... if you die, there will be no chance for any change."

Asta shook her head.

She is still young, so naturally, it is difficult for her to understand the fear of death when one's lifespan is coming to an end.

Ask yourself, in the entire universe, who does not crave the power to master everything, and who does not crave the "Permanence" to witness everything, even if the universe is extinguished, one can still exist forever.

But Asta still felt she had underestimated the "Supreme Heaven Parasite."

Because what she imagined is a field that Aeons can touch, and using the authority of Aeons to guess the abstract concepts mastered by a Supreme Divinity.

Would undoubtedly greatly underestimate the true level of "Containment-3699."

She even suspected that after being parasitized by the "Supreme Heaven Parasite," the host could possibly ascend to divinity, or even Supreme Divinity.

If such a conjecture were true, it would be too crazy.

Asta shook her head, stopped guessing, and continued to wait for the follow-up archive of this Supreme Divinity.

And the audience started a new round of discussion.

"GOI? I remember yesterday they sent some ammunition to the Foundation."

"Yes, it was 'Lead-Tin Alloy Anti-Anomalous Armor-Piercing Rounds'; could it be that after being parasitized, the parasitized will also use spells like the Fifth Church believers?"

"Very likely."

"Perhaps we can compare Fifth Church believers to Pathstriders, and the parasitized as Emanators."

"Don't... 'Lord Ravagers' can ignite galaxies; can they ignite the universe?"

"Mere parasitized hosts, how could they obtain such heaven-defying power? Even 'Nanook' can't destroy the universe just because they want to."

"It can't be that dangerous... the Foundation and the civilization in the archive likely haven't entered the universe yet; if they could mass-produce terrifying existences below Supreme Divinity and above divinity, the Foundation would have been gone long ago."

"By the way, aren't you all curious about what form this Supreme Divinity exists in? And what concept is it a manifestation of?"

At the end of the archive, there is also a photo attached, titled "Death Valley near the edge of the 3396 Zone."

The valley in the photo presents a rust-like red on the outermost side, which means this mountain area is rich in iron elements.

However, in the center of the image, which is also the center of the valley, the rolling mountains present a bone-like white.

Very abnormal.

After a while, the photo faded away along with the label below it.

When the screen lit up again, it was a video with somewhat distorted colors.

Undoubtedly, it was an archaeological site.

In the valley, there was a large area covered by a shed, separating the scorching sun from the earth.

Under the shed, professors with their students, as well as staff, were carefully clearing the soil, fearing that one careless move would damage the precious relics in the soil.

Just then, someone exclaimed, and the cameraman ran over with the camera.

It turned out that a student had discovered an unknown cavity, its upper structure already damaged, revealing a black hollow space below.

And deeper in the cavity, there was a faint blue-green light.

Seeing that unusual light, the audience's hearts tightened simultaneously.

"They're done for!" an archaeologist sighed.

Magical ancient relics have a natural, irresistible charm for scholars like them, just like the Twin Towers were to passenger planes.

In order to leave their names in journals, and even in human history, scholars are willing to bear certain risks.

But that is a containment object!

It is a Supreme Divinity!

It is the "Supreme Heaven Parasite"!!!

Even exposure to "Containment-3396" will cause drastic changes in the physical and abstract properties of the organism!!!

Some people felt worried for them, naturally some felt excited, and couldn't wait to see what these poor guys would become.

"I don't know what the difference is between being exposed to the light of 'Containment-3699' and contacting 'Containment-3699', or its secretions."

"I'm actually curious whether the subsequent changes are random or controllable, and what the ratio of beneficial mutations to harmful mutations will be."

As long as we know what kind of mutations they will undergo.

We can know why the civilization where the Foundation is located would fight to the death to snatch the "Supreme Heaven Parasite"!

And in the eyes of everyone, the large-scale operation of the archaeological team began! ===== CHAPTER 599 =====
