A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 823 - 809: The Slumbering Place of the Genetic Primordial

Now, in Aphel's view, it is apparent that the whole village has been altered by Genetic Power, making the mutation even more convincing.

The power of the Genetic Primordial is extremely terrifying.

The mere radiation from afar can cause people to mutate and gain all sorts of strange Genetic Abilities.

Such a large forbidden zone.

All of it caused by the radiation of two Genetic Primordials.

No one knows from where these two Genetic Primordials came or why they lie dormant here.

The place where the Genetic Primordials lie dormant is completely inaccessible.

So.

People being mutated by the Genetic Primordial's genetic radiation is a very likely scenario.

Of course.

There are also aspects that don't make sense.

For example, why is the mutation so consistent among these people, why do everyone mutate into genetic monsters, losing human form?

"No need to think about it, they've been punished by the gods. Of course, I don't know why they've been punished; perhaps the gods in your world have a twisted sense of humor?"

Baiyu said to Aphel.

Aphel squinted, "Do you know something about our world?"

Baiyu replied, "Of course, I can even take you out of this world to see the broader universe. Except I must survive, not be killed by my classmates. Only the one who can win to the end gets such privilege."

Aphel looked at Baiyu skeptically and didn't continue on this topic, instead asking Barry, "Village chief, is everything fine on the side of the Genetic Primordial?"

Barry shook his cat-like head, "No, we've never approached that area, so the specifics are unclear.

Yet all these years.

The Beast Puppet has been studying the Genetic Primordial, it might have obtained new abilities from it.

How did you come back this time? Has that force that once invaded our village been destroyed?"

Upon hearing this question.

Aphel's face darkened, "No, their strength far exceeds our imagination.

They capture test subjects worldwide for dastardly genetic experiments.

They have numerous powerful mutants.

Behind them is an unimaginable and vast force; overthrowing them is virtually impossible.

Our village was attacked.

Because they are perpetually searching their domain for these forbidden zones, probing the genetic secrets within."

Barry's face showed despair, and his body started trembling, "Does that mean if you escaped, they would certainly pursue you.

They step into the forbidden zone.

Our fate would be the same as that of our companions a few years ago."

The villagers vividly remember the inhumane massacre from years ago when the Geling Company destroyed the village and killed most of its people.

Even though the company's fatalities were no less than those in the village.

Yet, the loss for the company seemingly doesn't matter much.

"Don't worry, we are here to resolve this. As long as we can harness the power of the Genetic Primordial, this place will turn into a true forbidden zone, beyond anyone's reach."

Vina began to steady Barry's emotions at this moment.

They returned here.

Firstly, to seek revenge on the Beast Puppet, since its actions led to the company invading the forbidden zone, partly causing the demise of the village.

Secondly, to become stronger.

Only then can they avenge the company and free themselves from its control and pursue their own desires.

The company won't spare any test subjects.

If not powerful enough, they'll be hunted to the ends of the earth.

And if they want to boost their strength.

Then they can only gain power from the Genetic Primordial.

Barry remains worried, despite Vina's reassurances, because nobody truly understands the situation of the Genetic Primordial.

"What do you plan to do next?"

He leaned on his cane, his voice slightly fatigued with a sense of impending doom.

Aphel said, "Next, we'll head directly to where the Genetic Primordial lies dormant. Village chief, instruct the villagers to be careful, and if company pursuers arrive, you can temporarily hide.

We've set many traps along the way.

Even if the company pursuers do enter the forbidden zone, they'll be severely weakened; as long as you hide well, you won't be in danger.

After this incident, no one will disturb your lives anymore, and I'll help you find a way to turn back into humans."

Barry could only nod.

Now that they've turned into such ghostly figures, they're not very afraid of the company people; death is the worst outcome.

Moreover, the forbidden zone has a complex terrain.

Those outsiders indeed dare not venture recklessly, or they may mysteriously vanish within.

Led by the village chief.

Aphel, Baiyu, Wang Shenghua, and Vina reached a barren mountain.

At the foothills.

Looking up.

The entire mountain lacked any vegetation, full of rugged rocks and uneven paths.

The village chief refused to continue upwards upon reaching this point.

Aphel led the way, "This place is where the purple Genetic Primordial lies dormant; since we don't know the origin or names of the Genetic Primordials, we refer to them by the color on their bodies.

This Genetic Primordial is entirely covered in purple patterns.

Lies dormant inside a nourishment pod.

Since my birth, it has remained motionless, and up to now, it shows no signs of awakening. If not for the continuous radiation, I would've mistaken it for a corpse."

Baiyu showed curiosity, "Who discovered this Genetic Primordial first?"

"The adults in the village, the oldest among us, burned the mountain because they found the plants and animals under the Genetic Primordial's radiation began severely mutating.

Such genetic radiation increases rapidly as you move closer.

Far away from this mountain, you can noticeably feel the radiation decrease."

Aphel had already climbed the mountain.

She led, with the three others following closely; once inside the barren mountain's range, they felt their skin loosen.

Baiyu frowned.

This feeling only occurred when he encountered high-pollution entities causing mutations or extraordinary materials.

He never felt this sensation with other genetic mutants.

"Be careful, something feels off here. I almost lost control of my Pollution Level,"

Wang Shenghua whispered in his ear.

Her gaze showed apprehension as she looked up the mountain, seemingly searching for the source of the polluting force.
