"Cultivating Special Abilities? How is that even possible? Hahaha..."
Both guys couldn't help but burst into laughter. It took a while before they finally stopped. Ma Rufei said, "Master, it's impossible to cultivate Special Abilities. At most, you can only train by breaking through your limits over and over again. Your abilities can improve, but the process is very slow and offers no real benefits. Take my Defensive Ability, for instance. I have to train by withstanding increasingly horrifying impacts, and it's incredibly tough. Even after a lifeti of such grueling training, I'd still be just an ordinary person. My lifespan wouldn't increase, and I'd still die before I'm a hundred. It's completely different from Cultivation."
"Special Abilities are ultimately not that impressive," Chen Chaoyue added. "That's why they aren't valued, and not many people research or discuss them. Cultivation, on the other hand, benefits humanity trendously, so many people research it and start from a young age. However, the most popular trend right now is Genetically Enhanced Humans. They can possess heaven-destroying, earth-extinguishing strength without any need for Cultivation. Soon, even Cultivation might beco obsolete."
"Yeah, we're just waiting for our country to make a huge breakthrough in Gene Enhancent Technology. Then we'll both undergo Genetic Enhancent and beco super powerful masters," Ma Rufei said, his face full of anticipation.
Zhang Bin's face drained of color. He quickly said, "Listen to , Genetic Enhancent is the wrong path. Cultivation is the correct path of evolution. You must not undergo Genetic Enhancent, or you will be beyond redemption."
"Brother Bin, you're worrying unnecessarily," said Chen Chaoyue. "The technology for Genetically Enhanced Humans is already mature. Arica has produced so many of them, and we've never heard of any bad incidents or them causing any harm to the world."
The ticking ti bomb of the Genetically Enhanced Humans had been detonated prematurely by Zhang Bin. In the underground base, he had killed so many powerful SSS-level Genetically Enhanced Humans that there weren't many left on the outside. Thus, although the world's superpowers were secretly dealing with the Genetically Enhanced Humans and silently hunting down those on the run, they had not publicly revealed their horrors and dangers.
One reason was the fear of inciting public panic. The second was the inability to explain to their citizens how the state's vast wealth, spent researching Genetically Enhanced Humans, had not only failed to produce any benefits but had created man-eating demons instead.
Even so, all the superpowers continued their research on Genetically Enhanced Humans. They were no longer mindlessly producing more but were instead focusing on studying the defects and finding ways to avoid them.
This still required imnse wealth, so they publicly claid that Gene Enhancent Technology was continuously improving, calling it a promising biotechnology that could elevate humanity.
Ma Rufei and Chen Chaoyue, although wealthy, were not privy to such top-level national secrets. Ma Rufei added, "Master, to be honest, the country is recruiting volunteers for Genetic Enhancent. We've already signed up and are about to undergo the procedure. We ca today to bid you farewell."
Zhang Bin's face changed dramatically as a storm raged in his heart. How could this be happening? They know full well that Genetically Enhanced Humans are demons, so why would they still recruit volunteers for experints? Do they really believe the defects can be so easily avoided and corrected? Gao Si said that, given Earth's current level of technology, it's simply impossible. It would take hundreds or even thousands of years to fully assimilate the technology of the Xing Yue civilization before they could develop devices to rapidly strengthen spiritual power. Only then could they possibly create flawless Genetically Enhanced Humans, and even then, there would surely be many restrictions. Otherwise, why wouldn't Gao Si undergo Genetic Enhancent himself to beco super powerful?
However, he also understood that China, having acquired the complete technology of the Xing Yue civilization, had likely beco overconfident. They would certainly continue their research, at least in small batches. But he couldn't just stand by and watch Ma Rufei and Chen Chaoyue beco experintal subjects.
So, he imdiately began to plead with them earnestly, "Don't you know that the success rate for Genetic Enhancent is terrifyingly low? Once you go through with it, you're likely to end up dead, and it'll be too late for regrets! You don't lack money or won. You have such wonderful lives, why take such a risk?"
Ma Rufei spoke with soaring ambition, "Dr. Han promised that Gene Technology has made a huge breakthrough. The death rate will be reduced to a negligible level, and no defects will erge. Becoming powerful is my dream. I dream of exploring the stars with you, Master, piloting a Flying Saucer. We could live freely on the Moon or Mars, unconstrained by the need for oxygen. I don't want to live for less than a hundred years only to kick the bucket and beco a corpse."
"I'm with Brother Ma. I yearn to beco strong and extend my lifespan. There's no other way but through Genetic Enhancent," Chen Chaoyue said eagerly. "And since Dr. Hanbing Yun has promised there are no dangers or defects, what do we have to worry about?"
Damn it! That malicious woman is definitely trying to get my friends killed! Her words are bullshit. How could Genetic Enhancent possibly be risk-free? Even with the Xing Yue civilization's technology and enhancing Superpower Users with strong spiritual power, the success rate wouldn't reach one hundred percent. Besides, all the Genetically Enhanced Humans they create turn into man-eating demons! Without a doubt, once Ma Rufei and Chen Chaoyue undergo Genetic Enhancent, they'll be locked up for life. They'll beco true experintal subjects, never to see the light of day again. What aning is there in living like that?
Zhang Bin trembled with rage. Perhaps this is Hanbing Yun's way of getting her revenge on . This move is utterly vicious; only a woman as cruel as her would do sothing like this. I can't even understand why she is targeting . I didn't assault her, nor did I kill her entire family! Is it just because I refused her invitation that one ti? Or because I demanded the Third-in-Command execute the person who ordered my Flying Sword and Space Ring to be seized? No, no, that can't be it. There has to be another reason. It looks like I have to make a trip to the Capital City and settle this score with her once and for all. That woman is too vicious and dangerous. Even without much power, she's still scheming against . What's more, her blind confidence and arrogance might lead her to believe she can solve the defects. She could start experinting recklessly, creating hordes of Genetically Enhanced Humans and potentially triggering another huge catastrophe. She has to be stopped.
