Chapter 144: The truth
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ye Bei’s body was coiled in the mercenary base. In the middle of his body, the cracked computer in the white zone was operating normally.
In the vicinity of Ye Bei, the logistics personnels of the mercenary were trembling. They waited quietly, with no intention of escaping.
!!
In the computer…
The scene continued.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle!
A large snowflake ended.
Thomas appeared again, but this time, his face looked even older.
There were many wrinkles on his forehead.
Beside him stood a young assistant who seemed to be less than 20 years old.
But this time, Thomas’ expression was pretty good…
“Humans are not alone! The earth has existed for billions of years but how long has it been since humans were born? During the research process today, we accidentally found a mysterious pearl in the stomach of a deep-sea fish… Something incredible! The enormous energy contained in it can completely speed up our research progress! I hope that God will bless us and let that day come soon. In addition, this pearl has been around for at least hundreds of millions of years. There are various signs that humans are definitely not the first intelligent creatures to appear on the earth, nor are they the race with the fastest technological development.”
As he said this, Thomas slowly took out a pearl that was emitting white light.
Ye Bei’s eyes instantly narrowed when he saw this.
That’s right… This pearl was the mystic pearl! It was exactly the same…
Found in the belly of a deep-sea fish?
In other words, there were fish that managed to escape from that gully in the depths of the ocean… This was indeed incredible.
This video was very long.
Next, all were some footage that Thomas recorded about the research progress. But every time he recorded, Thomas looked a lot older.
Finally…
Another short video caught Ye Bei’s attention.
Thomas looked very weak in the video. His body was leaning against a wheelchair. At the same time, there was a drip on his arm. He seemed to be seriously ill. A middle-aged man was standing beside him. That man was naturally Thomas’ assistant.
This time, the two men in the scene looked unusually calm.
“Actually, from the moment I first came to this island, I thought that perhaps all my efforts in my life were just for the benefit of others! My dream is to change the entire world so that humans can live better! Just now, they came again… Yes, we have made a breakthrough in our research. When testing creatures, we can make animals undergo a mutation. Whether it is the strength of the body or the lifespan, it will increase. This should be something to be happy about. But now, I feel uneasy because this isn’t a real finished product. Its progress is also a failure. Its evolution has a huge flaw… I don’t know if I am right or wrong. If I have another chance to choose, perhaps I will never come here again!”
As he spoke, Thomas shook his head lightly.
Pop…
The assistant behind him did not have any expression on his face. He then turned off the recording with a pop sound.
On Ye Bei’s side, the computer once again turned into a snowflake…
The mutant plants and mutant beasts on the research island did not evolve because of some virus leak! Humans had already achieved a breakthrough in their research… The information he received before was completely fake.
It could even be said that…
The fact that the mercenary base was able to discover the research island might have been part of someone’s plan from the very beginning.
Who was that?
Ye Bei’s pupils suddenly contracted.
At the same time, the video on the computer was about to come to an end.
Hiss!
The snowflakes ended.
The scene on the computer became clear again. However, this time, Ye Bei’s first glance was not on Thomas but on the environment behind him…
What used to be full of various technology products had been messed up.
The entire research facility was like a ruin. It was as if there had been an intense battle here and there were many bloodstains on the ground.
Thomas’ hair was white and many of his teeth had fallen out. The assistant beside him was gone.
When he looked at the computer, his dry eyes were filled with loneliness and regret.
“Perhaps this is my last recording. Today, they came again and killed all the people involved in this research. I’m now hiding in a completely sealed room. I’ve secretly built this place over the years, so they don’t know… Of course, the mysterious pearl from the ancient civilization was brought to this place, too. I’m going to give it to a python which was meant for research, hoping that it can bring the pearl to fated humans. This room will open again in a month. If I’m not wrong, those people would have already left and the python will have enough food to stay here for a month.” Thomas said.
As Thomas spoke, the mystic pearl in his hand gently swayed across the computer. A reticulated python was in a cage behind him… If Ye Bei was not mistaken, that python was the female snake that had given him the mystic pearl back then.
Buzz…
The video in the computer had completely ended here.
When this video finished playing, a progress bar popped up.
“Hint: the video has been successfully viewed. Now, destroy it. 10%… 50%… 100%…” The video was automatically destroyed. In less than three seconds, it was completely deleted without leaving any traces.
“It seems that the truth is far beyond my expectations! Thomas used his own body as food to feed the female snake in that sealed room for a month before it left with the mystic pearl… However, all the successful research was taken away by humans. What kind of organization was it? In addition, this computer was clearly kept in a secret room. Why were there so many abandoned computers beside it when we found it? During this period, any humans came?”
Hiss! Hiss!
Ye Bei spat his forked tongue and looked at the computer that had completely destroyed all the information. His eyes flashed with a lot of doubt.
Although these videos revealed a lot of valuable information, but it made the whole thing confusing at the same time.
Clatter…
After thinking for a long time, Ye Bei did not have any leads. The body that was wrapped around the computer suddenly exerted force and crushed the computer directly, making a clatter sound.
“Forget it… I’m with the help of the system! And now with this powerful body, it would be a good thing for me if humans really mastered the half-finished evolution potion. After all, the evolution points would be a lot more if I get to devour mutant humans.”
Ye Bei thought so in his heart.
Humph?
However, just as this thought came to him, something flashed in the broken computer and attracted Ye Bei’s attention immediately…
