Chapter 951: Emblem Evolution?! Shapeshift into a True Demon!?
What does it mean?
Does he look down on me?
Li Sanjiang wants to get angry but lacks the energy.
The pain intensifies, leaving me powerless to fight back.
Even having a Mouth to retort is a luxury.
At present, Su Yang keeps throwing stones at it.
Like children playing, it's painless and harmless, yet highly insulting.
"Vision Perception my guess is wrong, not all Gene Modification subjects are players."
"And a considerable portion are Normal Difficulty civilians like you, used as targets."
"Your existence may only serve as Task targets."
"You and I have no grudges, there should be no need to kill you."
"But with a Task at hand, I can only act on orders."
Speaking so, Su Yang tosses the stone he holds onto the ground and forcibly pulls a Rebar from a broken concrete pillar nearby.
After gauging its weight briefly, Su Yang walks slowly toward Li Sanjiang.
"How about this: I don't kill life nor abuse life; I'm not a pervert."
"Answer me a few questions, and I'll hand you over to the Enforcer, how about that?"
Li Sanjiang whines twice, as if expressing something.
Su Yang suddenly realizes, "Sorry, I was a bit heavy‑handed, forgetting you can't speak now."
"Then let's change the method; I ask, you answer."
"All you need is to nod or shake your head."
Li Sanjiang's eyes show a hint of deliberation.
It ponders how much of Su Yang's words are true and how much false.
"Beep—"
From afar, a police siren blares, chaotic and overlapping, echoing all around.
Li Sanjiang hears it, like a drowning person seeing a rescue straw.
His eyes are full of hope.
Rather than falling into Su Yang's hands, it prefers to be captured by the Enforcer.
The judgment outcome is unknown, but ending up in Su Yang's hands guarantees a dead end!
Therefore, Li Sanjiang decides to agree.
Delay time!
He then lifts his chin, indicating Su Yang to question.
"Who arranged your Gene Modification?" Su Yang asks.
Li Sanjiang shakes his head.
"Did you do it to yourself?"
Li Sanjiang nods.
"Is there really such a Gene Modification Serum?" Su Yang furrows his brow.
He originally was just talking nonsense.
Did not expect it to become a prophecy?
So, Li Sanjiang's mutation was entirely an accident?
But how did he know that thing could Shapeshift?
He couldn't just pick up a needle off the road and stick it into his body, could he?
Considering this, Su Yang asks again, "Did someone specially deliver a Reagent to you?"
Li Sanjiang thinks, hesitates for a moment, then nods.
Su Yang can't help but touch his chin, thinking—someone is deliberately creating Gene Modification warriors.
From the Imperial Company's Trial, it appears.
Su Yang is clearly a Success Product.
No Side Effect at all.
He will not become a ferocious terrifying Monster, nor have a bloodthirsty craving.
Of course, from a player's perspective, such issues wouldn't arise.
Because the rules themselves dictate that he cannot be a Defective Product.
But in the eyes of the Company's R&D team, it is different.
Su Yang is perfect, without any impurities or defects.
From the corpses on both sides of the Trial Passage, it seems failure leads only to a dead end.
There is no second possibility.
Then why…
Did Li Sanjiang become a Werewolf after Gene Modification?
Is he truly a Success Product or a Defective Product?
This group captures Lower City District Normal Difficulty residents for experiments; what is their intention?
Countless questions rise in his mind.
Su Yang vaguely feels he has grasped the key to this Death Game.
Perhaps it's an open-ended Mission Logic.
He must find the Clearance Method himself.
And Gene Modification is clearly the Core.
Just need to sort out cause and effect, perhaps can achieve clearance quickly.
And obtain a rare Hidden Achievement.
This is very important to Su Yang.
The siren grew nearer, Su Yang realized he must seize the time, and asked, "Is the Reagent still at your house?"
Li Sanjiang nodded.
"Alright, then I'll go to your house once."
Saying that, Su Yang turned and left.
?
Li Sanjiang, seeing him leave gracefully, while doubts lingered in his heart, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Saved…
"Quick, quick, quick, the suspect is there!"
"Be careful, the opponent's destructive power is strong."
"Electric Gun ready!"
A group of Enforcers stepped over the ruins toward Li Sanjiang's direction.
Seeing this scene, Li Sanjiang felt both relief and a few sighs of having survived a disaster.
"Wuwu!"
It mustered its last ounce of strength, emitting a whimper, indicating its location.
This damned place, it doesn't want to stay even for a second longer.
"Found it!" someone shouted.
"It's pinned down, move the surrounding things away!"
"Wait, be careful of a trap!"
Just as the Enforcers hesitated, a ripping sound suddenly rang out.
"Sss—"
A Black Shadow darted in at extreme speed.
"Careful!"
The Enforcers were horrified, Retreating in all directions.
"Pfft!"
Li Sanjiang's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked down in disbelief.
He saw a thick, long Rebar brutally pierce his chest, half of it inside.
It passed cleanly through the heart.
A small half emerged from the back.
"He deceived me…"
Li Sanjiang's consciousness drifted, his gaze fixed on the Silhouette under the moonlight in the distance.
Although the distance was too great to see clearly.
But it still caught the curve traced on the opponent's Mouth corner.
And raised his hand, moving his lips toward the Hand Ring.
Li Sanjiang couldn't hold on for long; tilting his head, his consciousness vanished.
"The suspect is dead?!"
"Team 1 and 2 go find the killer, everyone else follow me to the exit!"
Just as the Enforcers were busy.
Su Yang said to the Hand Ring: "'Cleaner' can come to finish up now."
After speaking, he sent a precise location.
The next moment, a wisp of intense blood aura silently surged.
"Hmm?"
This time Su Yang saw the exact form of the blood aura.
It resembled a visible, tangible ripple.
It gathered into a small stream, slowly drilling into the chest emblem.
Su Yang unbuttoned his shirt and glanced.
He suddenly discovered that the emblem, now merged with flesh and blood, was glowing with a black‑red sheen.
It seemed to be metamorphosing in some direction.
"What's happening?"
Su Yang placed his hand on it and found it felt just like touching other skin.
There was no unevenness at all.
But the Transform was real.
Recalling the scene of striking the Strength Testing Device, Su Yang couldn't help to fall into thought.
"'Demon' emblem can temporarily grant me great power."
"But it seems there is no cost."
"Collecting this blood qi can let it evolve—does that mean..."
"It can also let me evolve?"
This question is worth delving into.
The reason "Taboo" is Taboo is, of course, more than just this astonishing status.
Perhaps the crest is what countless top Old Era Remnant Faction members will stop at nothing to obtain.
Taboo is born to hunt top players.
Using them as "food", how could they be mere common folk?
The reasons behind all this may be far beyond simply having a strong Innate Talent.
The crest must be providing powerful support from behind.
At present, Su Yang discovers that blood qi can cause the crest to metamorphose; he seems to have found a brand‑new path of strengthening.
"If I endlessly collect blood qi—"
"Will I become..."
"A true Demon?!"
