Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Chapter 985: Chapter 985: The Lab Escapee, Xiaobai the Mouse

Members of the Deng Family were at a loss for what to do with Lin Shen for the moment. After Deng Yongxin left with his people, Deng Kuang patted Lin Shen on the shoulder and said, “Rest easy, with me here, no one will bully you.”

After a pause, Deng Kuang continued, “I’m currently finding someone to help you obtain identity proof from the Celestial Court. It’s just a matter of a couple days. Just wait a bit longer; once you get your identity proof, a planet will be allocated to you. It won’t be too late to leave then.”

Lin Shen gazed at Deng Kuang blankly, not expecting him to say these things. It seemed like he might know that Lin Shen had nowhere to go, and it was even quite possible that he knew Lin Shen was not from the Celestial Court.

“Haha, don’t look at me with those eyes,” Deng Kuang laughed as he patted Lin Shen’s shoulder again, “I once said, your brother and I were brothers in arms; knowing these things isn’t surprising. You just wait.” “I’ve got some business to take care of so I’ll be going first,” Deng Kuang said, “You have my communication number. Remember to contact me if you need anything, don’t shoulder it all on your own.”

Watching Deng Kuang leave, Lin Shen was inwardly troubled: “What on earth is going on with this Deng Kuang? Could it be that he really has some relation to someone?”

“We could have a good talk; we could cooperate,” said the voice of the Purple Mansion Butterfly Lady in Lin Shen’s mind.

“Cooperate?” Lin Shen asked quietly, without revealing anything.

“You are a person from the Ancient Realm who has entered the Celestial Court without permission. If you’re discovered, you should know exactly what your end will be; otherwise, you wouldn’t conceal your identity and follow me to the Deng Family,” said the Purple Mansion Butterfly Lady bitterly. “No wonder the people of the Deng Family could so easily spot my slip-ups; as it turns out, you’re not a person from the Celestial Court at all. I told you so much, which only made my own flaws more exposed.”

“What would happen if I were discovered?” Lin Shen asked, his heart stirred, as he replied with a question of his own.

“Are you truly ignorant or are you putting on an act with me?” the Purple Mansion Fairy said coldly. “If you’re acting, there’s no need. The reason you were able to deceive the Divine Illumination Mirror is that I helped project the figure of Kuafu upon you, otherwise, you would’ve been discovered by the Deng Family long ago for who you truly are. How else could you still be talking to me like this?”

“But you still haven’t told me what would happen if I were discovered,” Lin Shen said coolly.

“Giggle, are you really saying that you don’t know what consequences await those who infiltrate the Celestial Court without permission? If that’s the case, then that’s even more interesting,” the Purple Mansion Fairy said with a fiendish laugh. “Should you be able to enter through the main gates of the Celestial Court, you might become a guinea pig or experimental subject for them. But if you are of no value, not even fit to be an experiment, you would end up as disposable cannon fodder, or dispatched to mine until death for the Celestial Court.”

Lin Shen was alarmed to hear this, but he said nothing, not wanting to interrupt the Purple Mansion Fairy, so she could continue.

“People like you, who don’t enter through the main gates of the Celestial Court, once discovered, only have one fate, and that is death,” said the Purple Mansion Fairy with a smile.

“Why?” Lin Shen couldn’t understand. Being from the Ancient Realm, what difference did it make through which entrance one came into the Celestial Court?

Those who come in through the main doors can be used as lab rats, cannon fodder, miners and so on, so why do those who don’t enter through the main doors get killed right away, without even the chance to be lab rats?

With a smile, the Purple Mansion Fairy said, “It seems you truly know nothing. As a basis for our cooperation, let me clarify things for you, so that you understand the predicament you’re in now.”

“Although I do not know which Ancient Realm you come from, it doesn’t matter. Every Ancient Realm is a testing ground for the Celestial Court, and all creatures from the Ancient Realms are test subjects of the Celestial Court.” The Purple Mansion Fairy said with a cold laugh: “You can understand it this way, the test subjects that come out of the gate have gone through the experimental procedure like lab rats, everything is under the control of the Celestial Court, and the risk assessment is also normal. But someone like you who sneaks into the Celestial Court is like a lab rat that has escaped in the middle of an experiment, nobody knows what kind of harm you bring with you, and whether you will infect people outside the lab; the risk is unassessable and uncontrollable, hence upon discovery, immediate destruction is warranted.”

“A testing ground for the Ancient Realm? What are they experimenting with in the Ancient Realm?” Lin Shen found it hard to believe what the Purple Mansion Fairy was saying. Although the Ancient Realm was not as vast as the Celestial Court, it was still an immensely large Cosmic space, and to think that such a space was merely an experimental field was truly hard to believe.

“I don’t know, perhaps only a few masters of the Celestial Court would know.” The Purple Mansion Fairy continued: “I know you don’t believe it, but think about this, the civilizations within the Ancient Realm are not that weak after all, quite a few beings already possess the capabilities to survive in the Cosmic space, so why do their civilizations keep getting destroyed time after time? Why is there a break in the succession of civilizations?”

“You mean to say that all this is secretly controlled by the Celestial Court?” Lin Shen felt a chill run down his spine.

He had previously learned from Lin Wan that human civilization had undergone multiple destructions.

At that time, he was somewhat puzzled; according to Lin Wan, the people of the ancient civilizations were incredibly strong, many of whom had the power to break through the gates of the Celestial Court.

What kind of disaster happened in the Cosmic space that could directly cut off such human civilizations?

If it were a Cosmic-level disaster, or even a Cosmic explosion or something, then why was only the Ancient Realm affected, while the Celestial Court itself remained unscathed?

If what the Purple Mansion Fairy said was true, then everything would make sense.

The break in human civilization’s succession was not due to some disaster, but rather because it was being controlled.

Many things that he couldn’t understand before now seemed explainable.

What Lin Shen still couldn’t figure out, was why the Celestial Court would do this, and what benefit it would bring to the Celestial Court?

In theory, the people of the Celestial Court also came from the Ancient Realm; they themselves were from the Ancient Realm, so why would they reject the Ancient Realm?

“It’s very easy for someone alone in the Celestial Court to be found out their true identity, if you cooperate with me, and encounter the situation like now, I can also help you solve it.” The Purple Mansion Butterfly Lady struck while the iron was hot and continued to persuade: “I extracted the Deng Family’s bloodline from Duo, so I could only show the image of Kuafu to others and hide my own existence. This is also your best cover. Together we will both benefit; divided, we both suffer.”

Seeing that Lin Shen remained silent, the Purple Mansion Butterfly Lady seemed to feel that her conditions were still not tempting enough, and continued to say: “I can also transfer to you a portion of the Kuafu bloodline, helping you to merge with the Kuafu bloodline. With this bloodline, you will be able to practice the Sun-Chasing Clan’s Sun-Chasing Great Method, and even less people will be able to see through your identity.”

“If bloodlines could be transferred so easily, wouldn’t the Deng Family be more than just a few people able to practice the Sun-Chasing Great Method?” Lin Shen said.

“Others naturally cannot do it, but I am different; I am the Purple Mansion Fairy, possessing the Purple Mansion Yinyang Rebirth Method, otherwise how could I extract the bloodline from Duo, this is a unique ability in the Cosmic.” The Purple Mansion Fairy said proudly.
