Chapter 630: Light of Dawn ( 1 )
Half an hour later, Jiang Ziyi finally finished his meal and was eating an apple.
Since they had to wait for a long time, both Jiao Lizhi and Jin Xuyan decided to regulate their energy to consolidate their foundation.
Seeing how relaxed they were, Jiang Ziyi felt unhappy and said, "Du Fengyan, didn’t you want to know about the so-called Facility? Why are you ignoring me?"
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi and Jin Xuyan finally opened their eyes.
"I’m listening now," she said.
Swallowing the apple, Jiang Ziyi said, "Fengyan, I believe that your sister already found out the location of the Facility. Since you already caught the Matkuna soldiers, you should know that this so-called Facility was nothing but a small laboratory owned by them."
"We already know about this. You should tell us what we don’t know," Jin Xuyan said.
Jiang Ziyi looked at him with a complicated gaze for a while before he continued, "Captain Jin, you should know better than I do about this Facility. After all, the Pei family is one of the five families that are involved with them."
"I did know that the five aristocratic families were involved with them. What I want to know is what they gain from working with those aliens."
Looking at him, Jiang Ziyi asked, "What do you think the human wanted the most?"
"Besides wealth and power, what else did they want?" Jiao Lizhi asked.
"With the Tarakam Civilization’s advanced technology, we had lived for hundreds of years and only counted as teenagers. For us, good food is what we want. But for humans who can only live for several decades, what they lack is lifespan."
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi’s eyes flashed with understanding. "You mean those bugs promised them immortality?"
"They didn’t promise the human an eternal life but a longer lifespan," Jiang Ziyi nodded.
After hearing this, they fell into a long silence. Jin Xuyan thought about his previous life’s memories and came to a conclusion. "Does the zombie virus come from them?" he asked.
Jiang Ziyi thought for a moment before he replied, "Well, you can say that the zombie virus is the consequence of those families’ greed."
"What do you mean?" Jiao Lizhi asked.
"Do you know about the Elixir of Immortality?" he asked her back.
"I heard about this before. But what is the connection between this elixir and the zombie virus?" she asked again.
"They attempted to recreate the S-00 serum. They lacked the main material and tried to replace it with specific human blood. But as you know, the serum is given by those bugs. So how could they replace the core material with ordinary blood?" Jiang Ziyi chuckled.
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan frowned and said, "So the reason they abducted so many children and subjected them to experiments and hellish torture is to get the blood to replace this material?"
Jiang Ziyi nodded and continued, "Although they managed to get the replacement, the quality was not up to par. So it was impossible for them to recreate the S-00 serum."
"But ten years ago, they successfully created the perfect replacement for the material. From what I know, the source of this material is one of the Pei family’s children. Because of this, that old man Pei Gan was promoted as the Fifth Elder and became the head of the research department."
After he finished his words, Jin Xuyan’s eyes dilated for a moment before they returned to normal. The timing was too perfect to be called a coincidence. It seemed that the material the Facility obtained back then was his blood.
"So the Elixir of Immortality was made using a child’s blood?" Jiao Lizhi said with disbelief.
Jiang Ziyi nodded and continued, "But to get this material, the child had to experience bone-crushing pain and be at the edge of sanity."
"Why?"
"If they only wanted blood, they could get it from anyone. The problem is that the blood had to come from an ability-user who had an RH-negative blood type during the activation of his ability. To force the child to release his superpower, they had to push him to the limit." Jiang Ziyi shook his head.
"So that’s the reason they tortured the child," Jiao Lizhi muttered in shock.
Jiang Ziyi glanced at Jin Xuyan before he added, "Unfortunately, even after all their efforts, it was impossible to recreate the S-00 serum, and they were only able to create the Elixir of Immortality. Do you know why?"
Jiao Lizhi shook her head and said, "Don’t keep the suspense."
"Because the core material for the serum is Matkuna Race’s blood. The DNA sequence of the Human Race is different from the Matkuna Race. So how can they recreate the same thing using different materials?"
"After all these things, what is the connection between the zombie virus and the Elixir of Immortality?" Jiao Lizhi asked.
"I have talked so much. I want fruit juice."
The moment she heard this, Jiao Lizhi had the urge to slap this man. He was still as annoying as before!
Despite her annoyance, she still gave him a bottle of orange juice and said, "Speak."
Jiang Ziyi drank some juice before he said, "The Elixir of Immortality has several side effects. After taking the elixir, along with the DNA mutation, the user will experience an increase of blood lust and often lose control over their abilities."
"This side effect will last for two years or more. During this time, the more the user uses their ability, the more they lose control. But this is not the worst side effect."
After taking several sips of his orange juice, Jiang Ziyi continued, "The worst part is they will slowly lose their humanity and senses. The first sign is the change in their appetite. They will no longer be able to eat human food."
When she heard this, Jiao Lizhi was taken aback and asked, "If the side effects are so bad, why do they still want to create this elixir and use it?"
