Chapter 711 Dissent
“That’s true.”
Liu Ling echoed: "Salasmith is indeed the best "container" among all the selected ones. Unfortunately, those reserved cells did not get the energy source of the subject and completely collapsed and decomposed within the next two months. We always wanted to recapture Sarasmith, but in the end we just got her body. It was too late to find her, and the whole body completely decayed, and both the cells and genes were no longer worth recycling. Since then, we have not found a second case that is equivalent or similar to it."
"Sarasmith is indeed dead. But her genes appear in another person."
Presiding Judge Calave slowly opened the holographic screen on the coffee table, and the three of them suddenly saw the image of Las Messeth imprisoned in the Holy See.
"This is a Dark Knight, female. It was captured by the servants of the "Iron Warriors" Legion on the Imperial Frontier. At the same time, it was sent to the Imperial Academy. There was also a biological sample from the body of this Dark Knight. The Institute confirmed that it had mutated and was a special ability that had never appeared before. Its body can freely split for a certain period of time, thus producing biological independent bodies with self-awareness and can be controlled by the subject. Although it does not have combat capabilities for the time being, it has extremely strong detection and reconnaissance capabilities."
"It is indeed a very interesting and research-worthy living sample."
Hanusk looked at the image of Rasmeses slowly nodded, and then changed his subject: "However, what is the connection between this and the former Sarasmith?"
Liu Ling's reaction in this regard was obviously much sharper than Hanusk. She was a little surprised, and then her eyes were filled with ecstasy: "Can't this dark knight have the same genes as Sarasmith in his body?"
"The Vatican and the Imperial Academy have always been unable to understand why this change occurs."
Presiding Judge Karavi chuckled, "One is the Dark Knight, the other is the trainee who was judged as a failure by the Battle Sisters Temple. The only thing they have in common is gender. Apart from that, there is no possibility of intersection. But here is the problem: the long-lost gene appears again, and it is in a Dark Knight."
Hanusk snorted coldly from his nostrils: "It's funny, but it's not ridiculous. This is a kind of blasphemy, the dark world's invasion and occupation of the empire. It should not be allowed to continue to live. It should be purified at the first time, from the heart to the body, completely purified."
Liu Ling's view is even more radical than Hanusk: "We need Sarasmith's genes. But this cannot be a reason to make a dark creature survive. The purification ceremony should be conducted at its cellular level. Otherwise, even if the gene to recreate His Majesty's body is obtained, it may be a re-pollution of His Majesty himself."
Neither answer was the result that Karavi wanted. The elderly Supreme Court President shook his head: "I tend to let this Dark Knight live. Sarasmith's genes may be our only chance to rescue the emperor. I am not completely opposed to the "Container" plan. But look at the experimental subjects we had after the last failure, none of them could match Sarasmith's degree of fit. Maybe it was the emperor's soul who guided us to find this Dark Knight. This time, no mistakes are allowed."
"Your Excellency, is this what you call us?"
Hanusk's face was cold: "I still keep my opinion. The "Container" plan must be suspended, and there are too many uncontrollable factors. The Golden Throne is currently operating in good condition. His Majesty the Emperor may not need us to do anything extra. He should be able to rely on his own strength to wake up from his sleep. All we need to do is wait patiently."
"You're so conservative."
Liu Ling glared at Hanusk with dissatisfaction: "We have been waiting for tens of thousands of years. Don't forget that each of us, including you, has received the genetic indoctrination of His Majesty the Emperor. It is because of this that we can live to this day. It is the emperor's power that supports us to guard the empire, and we must do our best to help His Majesty get rid of the current predicament. The loss of Sarasmith's genes itself means that we must continue according to the "container" plan. This time, we must integrate all departments and no longer be as chaotic as before. We have a high chance of success. His Majesty will wake up soon and lead us to conquer all space areas."
"The quarrel you are now is a kind of chaos."
The Supreme Presiding Judge stopped the anger between the two: "I think we should adopt a more stable approach. The previous experiment failed and had accumulated a lot of experience for the "Container" plan. We know how to face various sudden changes and accumulated a lot of resources for the experiment itself. My plan is like this: Or follow the original old method to select genes from the imperial subjects and pair them with this Dark Knight one by one. The fusion experiment is only carried out in the cellular stage, selecting the most stable biological basis from it, and becoming the entity in the next stage. What do you think?"
Liu Ling didn't say anything, but just looked at Hanusk sitting opposite him with a provocative look.
Hanusk's expression was cold, without objection or approval.
Only when gene pairing matches each other can the selected individuals accept the parasites of foreign genes. This process is very cumbersome, but as Kalawi said, regardless of the degree of stability or the probability of safety, it is the highest among all experimental methods.
"If there is no objection, I will release the experimental execution book in half an hour."
Supreme Presiding Judge Kalawi knows how to use forms to achieve his goals. Although he doesn't like the tough and violent style of the Black Cross faction, Kalawi has to admit that if he does not receive the support of the First Judge Liu Ling, relying solely on his own strength, he may only confront Hanusk and cannot take the initiative in the three-person vote.
The experimental execution book is released in the form of a document, with the specific execution procedures jointly participated by the Vatican and the Imperial Academy. Karavi and Liu Ling signed their names at the end of the document in sequence. When it was Hanusk's turn, perhaps to calm down their inner dissatisfaction or to obtain some degree of compensation in some way, Hanusk said unhappily: "Of course I will not object to the signature. However, before conducting the experiment, you seem to have forgotten one thing."
Karavi raised her white eyebrows and asked seriously: "What are you referring to?"
Hanusk pointed to Rasmeses on the holographic screen and said: "This Dark Knight is the key to the experiment itself. Whoever discovers or captures it is a very meaningful achievement. I suggest that all units and individuals involved in capturing events should receive corresponding rewards."
Liu Ling glanced at Hanusk and said lightly: "They should have received the reward. Being loyal to the empire is the duty and obligation of every human being. As long as His Majesty the Emperor wakes up, this is the most reward in the world. Besides that, what do you think they need?"
“Not everyone has the same thinking logic as you.”
Hanusk refuted Liu Ling quietly: "Everything in this world has its own rules, and humans cannot live simply by relying on belief. They need bread, wealth, and life resources in all aspects. Of course, I admit my spiritual role, but I must never ignore material needs. Many things must be solved with money and material things. If you give them what they want, they will naturally be able to give you more."
Liu Ling slowly frowned, and his eyes flashed with sparks that could burst out at any time.
This is the biggest conflict between the Black Cross and the Judgment faction. The former tends to do all actions without material rewards and simply for the emperor. The latter advocates that only the material foundation can produce stimulating effects among human beings. This is originally a material world, and spiritual slogans can produce effects at a specific time, but cannot require everyone to be in the same position as themselves. If you want to get greater and more rewards and support, you must first let others get more
"Enough, we shouldn't continue to waste time on this issue."
The presiding judge Kalawi had a deep worry in his eyes: "You should learn from each other's theories instead of slandering each other. However, for now, Hanusk's proposal on this matter is right. Letting Your Majesty wake up is the primary key to overwhelming all matters. We are willing to pay for it, and we can also take out enough things to exchange. If this exchange can make Your Majesty wake up from his sleep, I am willing to pay any price, even life."
Liu Ling and Hanusk looked at each other, and the hostility in each other's eyes quickly faded. They nodded at the same time, Hanusk picked up the pen and signed his name on the experimental execution documents.
At night, through the window, Su Hao silently stared at Konoha Town, which was very busy in the dark.
This place has been transformed into a huge military and supply base. The work efficiency of mechanical slave labor is extremely high, and the layout of the entire Konoha Town has been completely changed in a short period of time. The factory and energy supply system have been initially improved, and mechanical repair shops and biological warehouses are being built. They are tireless, and even through the windows, you can hear the noise of people and the roar of machines outside.
Su Hao was not interested in this orderly chaos at all. His eyes quickly crossed the outer wall of the tall and thick city walls and saw a place further away.
To the north of Konoha Town, there is a band-like area that is as bright as stars.
There is Oviado City.
It is never a happy thing to be on the night shift. However, this is the world. You rarely have the opportunity to choose your job freely. Even if there is, it is often because you have to accept it unwillingly.
The height of the warning tower is equivalent to a six-story building, with a very wide view. With heavy machine guns and integrated machine guns, no one will think they are dangerous.
A young man in his twenties stood on the tower, looking absent-mindedly into the distance.
Next to it, a mercenary of about the same age was sitting in the machine gun post, smoking leisurely and leisurely.
"Don't be so rigid, this is what night shifts look like. There is actually no danger here, it's very safe. We have the most sturdy protection in the world, and this one
As he said that, the smoking mercenary pointed to the heavy machine gun that was placed in front of him.
The young man standing slowly shook his head, with obvious worry on his face: "No, I'm different from you. You came later, and I don't know what happened here."
Later, it refers to those who followed Earl Thomas to establish Oviado. They were not indigenous people on the border of the empire, and they had just stayed here for a short time. For example, the mercenaries who are sitting in the machine gun posts have only lived in Oviado for half a year.
"You mean the battle with the dark creatures?"
The mercenaries came to interest: "I have also dropped a few dark cubs. They are not as terrible as you say. They are all a group of primitive fools, only taking turns with knives and spears, but we have guns and ammunition."
"They aren't as stupid as you said."
The young man replied lightly, with a rather sarcastic bitter smile on his face.
He was the former resident of Konoha Town. He had witnessed with his own eyes the terrifying scene of more than a hundred Dark Knights leading up to tens of thousands of Dark Warriors under the planning of Las Messeth. It had become an eternal nightmare in his mind.
After a few seconds of silence, the young man asked in a low voice: "Have you... seen a bug?"
"Word? What kind of bug?" The mercenary obviously did not react.
"In the dark creatures, there are some large spiders and ants."
Not everyone knows the dark world well. Although the young man has participated in the fierce battle in Konoha Town, he only has a very simple understanding of the spider demon and the ant demon. He raised his hand and kept marking the shapes of the creatures he wanted to express in the air: "They are big and terrifying. Almost all of them are shiny eyes on his forehead, and there are several pairs of hard and sharp teeth. Well... that doesn't seem to be teeth. I heard from veterans that it should be the palate of the mutated dark creatures, which is equivalent to the teeth of our humans. It is very hard, black, and even harder than some metals."
"Haha, what do you mean is that those dirty and lowly big fools who still bring their own tableware?"
The mercenary obviously did not take the words of the young man to heart, nor did he resonate with his description at all. He just used this conversation as a pastime to pass the boring time according to his own understanding: "Just like the knife and fork we usually use? First cut meat with a knife, and then stuff the pieces of meat into our mouths? Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
"I'm not kidding you."
The young man was very dissatisfied with his seriousness being misinterpreted by others. His face suddenly pulled down: "Especially those spider demons, whose bodies were covered with a thick shell, and even the rockets fired from close range could not be penetrated. On the last day of the battle, a particularly huge spider demon appeared. It slammed into the city wall like crazy, like a high-speed train with a horn. I will never forget that terrible scene in my life. Many people I know were abandoned from the broken city wall and then fell from afar. It was like a lot of sacks suddenly in the air. It felt like an earthquake or a violent vibration caused by a volcanic eruption."
"Damn you, was the wall of the city at that time, made of paper? It would be broken by a monster a few times. It was simply a poor project to cut corners."
The night wind became colder and colder. The mercenaries took out a bottle of white wine from their coat pockets, pulled out the plug and poured a big mouthful into their mouths. With a strong sense of alcohol, they handed the bottle of wine to the young man, while exaggerating an exaggerated amazement: "Don't worry, that kind of thing is absolutely impossible to appear in Oviado City. Whether the buildings or the walls here, every brick was transported from the empire's territory, all of which are trustworthy products. You should trust our boss. I don't like the nobles either, but Mr. Thomas' performance so far is still very satisfying. The price he gave is very high, and the safety protection measures here are not bad, even exceeding some military constructions. Although the environment is a bit bad, for example, now, it is so cold that you have to have a sip of wine to survive this damn night. But I don't think it's any difficulty. At least when I decided to leave, my pockets will not be empty."
The young man was not as bold as a mercenary. He took a sip of wine and looked at the dark glasses in the distance. For a few seconds, the young man felt confused, even in a trance, and always felt that he had heard something and felt something, but he could not tell whether it was real or illusory? Or was it just a confusion caused by some thoughts in his mind for a long time?
The mercenary looked at him and asked, "Hey, what are you thinking?"
“I don’t know if I made the right choice?”
The young man looked into the distance and smiled bitterly: "You know, I was not a resident of Oviado. I used to live in Konoha Town, not far from here."
"I've heard of that place."
The mercenary nodded: "That place is completely different now. The people who came back from patrol last time were very surprised. They all said that the former town of Konoha became a military base. The protective walls there were tall and large, and all buildings were equipped with steel plates, and even some composite bulletproof technology made of armored ceramics were used. This word is really difficult to pronounce. I heard from the patrol captain. When talking about that town, even Mr. Thomas's personal guard felt envious. He said that he had never seen such a heavily guarded fortress in the world. Yes, that was a military base, a real fortress."
