Chapter 301: Chapter 301 – The Reason Why The Kar Planet Was Destroyed

“So it’s like that…”

Within a sparse laboratory, sounds of amazement continuously sounded out.

It was a massive laboratory with all kinds of intricate devices, looking incredibly professional.

All around, there were various machines operating, giving off faint lights.

This was quite a rare scene.

After all, the entire world had fallen into darkness, as most of the electricity plants had stopped operating.

Only a few places were not affected, including this place.

Not only was it not affected, but from the sounds from all around, it seemed that this place would use up a lot of electricity every day.

Looking at everything in the laboratory, the girl could not help but cry out in wonder.

“Did you make all of these things?” the girl looked at the lifeform as she asked.

Hearing the girl’s words, the lifeform turned and looked at her speechlessly before nodding, “What else? Everything here is my creation.
Otherwise, do you think that you humans could produce something like this under the effects of the Nothingness energy?”

He shook his head somewhat proudly.

“Is that so?”

The girl wanted to retort, but she had to admit that this place was set up incredibly well.

For him to be able to create a set-up like this in such an environment, it was indeed quite incredible.

“This place used to be an industrial park for you humans, but it was abandoned.
After I came here, I used the things left behind here and modified them to create my equipment,” the lifeform said as he nodded.

“All by yourself?” Liu Na asked out of curiosity.

“There were three of us at the start,” the lifeform fell silent for a moment before replying, “We came here together using the power of Nothingness Beasts.
However, two of them were infected and were forced to commit suicide.
I kept their corpses and am preparing to turn them into the highest grade puppets.”

“Using corpses to make puppets?” Liu Na frowned, feeling quite disgusted, “Don’t you feel bad for them?”

“Don’t use your human views to judge us…” the lifeform said as he shook his head, “Even among you humans, you have different customs between different ethnicities.

“For us Kar people, the best burial is to turn corpses into eternal works of art that will last forever.
That is how it has always been.”

He walked to the side and pulled some curtains to the side, revealing what was behind.

There were rows of cylindrical receptacles filled with a transparent liquid.

In two of them, there were two similar lifeforms lying within them with their eyes closed.

They looked quite similar to the lifeform beside Liu Na, apart from some small differences.

Seeing this, Liu Na continued to look out and saw more rows of receptacles.

They also contained things, but they were different.

There were corpses of other creatures and even humans.

“Humans…”

Seeing them, Liu Na paused and looked quite complicated, “Were those puppets outside modified by you?”

“Yes,” the lifeform nodded and replied honestly, “It was I who made them puppets.

“However, don’t misunderstand—before I modified them, they were already dead.
Even if I didn’t modify them, they would have long since rotted.
In human terms, I just recycled the materials.”

Different creatures had different habits, and to these lifeforms, it seemed that using corpses was quite normal.

The lifeform had not been planning to explain to Liu Na, but he was wary of Chen Heng.
Thus, he decided to explain in the end.

After all, right now, his life was in Chen Heng’s hands.

If he wanted to live, it was better for him to act obediently.

Thinking to there, the lifeform turned and looked to the side.

Not too far away, Chen Heng was sitting with a machine attached to him.

It was an information-installing machine that could quickly and directly transmit information into one’s mind.

However, very few people ordinarily did this.

After all, people’s bodies were quite weak, and this was the case for their minds as well.

If one was not careful, using this method could result in their minds being destroyed.

Even the Kar people rarely used this method.

However, by now, Chen Heng had been sitting there for a few hours.

Moreover, it seemed like his mind was completely fine.

“What a monster…”

Looking at Chen Heng, the lifeform could not help but sigh, not knowing what to say.

“If he was an ordinary person, even if it was a Kar person, their minds definitely would have exploded by now,” he could not help but say.

Honestly speaking, he could not help but wish that Chen Heng would die here.

Back when Chen Heng had decided to receive the information this way, he had almost started laughing.

However, he soon understood what the term ‘superhuman’ meant.

It seemed that hoping that Chen Heng’s mind would explode was pointless; this made him sigh.

“No matter how you put it, apart from the fact that he looks like a human, there’s nothing else that is human about him…” he could not help but say as he looked at Liu Na.

“Don’t look at me.”

Meeting the lifeform’s gaze, Liu Na shook her head and said, “In actuality, I feel the same.
Apart from him looking like a human, he doesn’t feel human at all.”

She had spent some time with Chen Heng, and she felt that the feeling he gave off was quite unique.

He was like a non-human creature wearing the skin of a human.

Not only was he incredibly powerful, but he could even heal people’s injuries.

She had seen Chen Heng heal all of her injuries with the wave of a hand as if he was just playing about.

Moreover, he did not seem to need to eat, nor did he need to go to the toilet.
In fact, he did not even need to sleep.

He did not seem to need any of the human biological needs.

He did not seem like a human at all.

If it wasn’t for the fact that the way he acted was quite normal and he was quite friendly, she really would have thought that he was a monster.

However, she also felt that Chen Heng was indeed a human.

After all, apart from his surprising abilities, there was not much difference between him and a human.

Moreover, as his father’s student, Liu Na had met him a few times in the past.

Even though they did not have a close relationship, she could remember what Chen Heng had been like in the past.

At least back then, he had been a normal person.

Was it the unknown energy that had caused his biological composition to change?

Liu Na was not sure and could only guess.

However, now that there seemed to be some outer space scientist next to her, she could discuss this.

Even though she did not completely trust him, she could at least chat about things like this.

After all, Liu Na knew that as long as Chen Heng was fine, he definitely would not dare to have any ill-intent.

However, after telling him her guesses, the lifeform’s eyes widened.

“You’re saying he was an ordinary human in the past?”

The lifeform looked dumbfounded, “That makes no sense…

“The unknown energy can cause creatures to mutate, and it would not be unexpected to create completely new races.
However, for something like this to happen to him, it’s a bit too exaggerated…”

The lifeform shook his head, “The Kar planet was also corroded by the unknown energy until it was completely destroyed, but nothing similar happened.
If that was the case, we would not be in such a situation…”

He bitterly smiled as he spoke.

“Then why did things turn out like this?” Liu Na frowned, feeling quite confused.

“Maybe you humans have more affinity with the Nothingness energy…”

The lifeform looked at Chen Heng as he deeply breathed in and asked, “Do you still remember the situation from before?”

“The situation from before…” Liu Na felt quite surprised and thought back.

Before, Chen Heng had controlled the Nothingness energy, looking like a god.

The Nothingness energy, which was like a fatal poison to most people, seemed to madly surge into Chen Heng’s body.

Moreover, Chen Heng’s body did not seem to reject the Nothingness energy and instead seemed to absorb it to strengthen himself.

That scene was still in her mind, and she did not dare to forget it.

“Now that I think about it…” the lifeform said, “Perhaps you humans have greater affinity with the unknown energy and it is more likely to produce such existences.”

“Actually, that means…” he began to look excited as he continued, “Maybe as long as you can pass a certain threshold, every human can become like him, using a human’s body to unleash a mutated creature’s terrifying power.”

“Having every person… wield a mutated creature’s terrifying power…”

Hearing this, Liu Na felt quite startled and thought to herself.

She could not help but think back to the terrifying power that Chen Heng had displayed.

With just a single attack, he could flatten a mountain, and even a forest would be instantly annihilated.

Even that terrifying Nothingness Beast was not a match for him, and it had been destroyed in a single hit.

This kind of terrifying power was on the level of those mutated creatures and could make people feel despair.

However, different to those mutated creatures, the power Chen Heng had was something he had control over and could freely use.

Even though those mutated creatures’ power was incredibly great, all they could use it for was wanton destruction.

If every person could become like Chen Heng…

No, even if they could just wield a tiny percentage of what he had, it would be a massive change.

Thinking to there, Liu Na could not help but long for this.

“So? Do you want to give it a try?”

The lifeform looked at Liu Na with a burning gaze, “I have decent control in using Nothingness energy to mutate.
If you want, we can immediately try.”

“You want to use me as a test subject?”

Hearing those words, Liu Na’s expression changed as she looked at the lifeform hostilely.

“You’re not willing?”

Seeing Liu Na’s reaction, the lifeform was a bit surprised before saying, “Then things will be quite difficult.
Apart from you, it is very difficult to find living humans on the surface.”

He scratched his head, looking quite troubled.

“Speaking of that…”

Hearing the lifeform’s words, Liu Na seemed to think of something and suddenly said, “Was it you who set up that forest outside?”

“You’re overestimating me,” the lifeform said as he waved his hand, “To be able to hide here and create a Nothingness Beast, that is already the extent of my abilities.

“As for the things outside, it doesn’t have anything to do with me; that is the result of being affected by the Nothingness energy.”

Hearing those words, Liu Na frowned before relaxing.

She had come here before with Chen Heng’s body’s father.

It was just that when leaving, they had run into some problems, and it had been in the black forest in the surroundings.

Chen Heng’s body’s father had died there, and she had thought that all of this was because of someone.

However, it seemed that this was not the case.

That made sense.

If this being really was the mastermind behind all of this, it would not have been so easy to take him under their control.

Thinking to there, Liu Na relaxed and felt less hostility towards him.

“How was your Kar planet destroyed’?” Liu Na thought for a moment before asking.

In order to obtain the lifeform’s research, they had directly come here and not asked too much.

Chen Heng was taking in information to the side, and she felt quite bored so she began to ask questions.

Hearing this question, the lifeform fell silent for a moment before saying, “At the start, our situation was just like yours: Mutated creatures suddenly appeared, rampaging everywhere and forcing us to the brink.”

“You weren’t able to kill those mutated creatures despite your advanced technology?”

Hearing the lifeform’s words, Liu Na felt quite confused.

Even though she did not know too much about the Kar planet’s civilization, the fact that this life form could harness Nothingness energy to create Nothingness Beasts, as well as travel through space to arrive here, meant that their technology was more advanced than Earth’s.

Was such a civilization powerless in front of the mutated creatures as well?

“We couldn’t do anything…” the lifeform seemed quite frustrated, “The mutated creatures that appeared on the Kar planet also had incredible evolutionary abilities.

“They could continuously adapt to their environment, becoming stronger and stronger.

“As long as we did not kill them immediately, they would become more and more difficult to kill.
Moreover…”

Speaking to there, the lifeform paused for a moment before continuing, “In actuality, before the catastrophe, we had successfully killed a mutated creature.

“We completely annihilated that mutated creature so that not even a cell was left.
However, a few days later, another one that looked exactly the same appeared.”

Standing there, thinking back to the past, the lifeform looked a bit fearful, “It’s as if those mutated creatures cannot die.
Even if we kill them, they can revive through the Nothingness energy…”
