The same.

I once dreamed of conducting scientific research with the idea of ​​benefiting the world, but Destrudos almost destroyed her ideal with his own strength and showed her with practical actions how terrible the consequences of the wanton development of technology are.

Professor Hirano turned his head, and his eyes hidden by wrinkles now flashed with a strong cold light, as if he was confronting a giant.

“Teacher Meng, even after what happened to Destrudos, can you still devote yourself to the science you love with your original intention?”

One word hits the weak spot in one’s heart.

This is exactly what I am hesitating about now.

Not to mention keeping her original intention, it was even difficult for her to touch scientific research again.

The shadow of Destrudos loomed over my dreams for a long time.

That’s why she resigned from her position as director and came to the university.

ka ka ka-

I clenched my fists in my dream, and the sound of bones could be heard faintly.

If it were in the past, she might have answered righteously, “Yes, because I believe that humans are not an ignorant race”, but the actual results slapped my dreams in the face time and time again.

She no longer had the courage to say such words.

Seeing that Ga Meng looked depressed, Professor Hirano chuckled. He also got the answer he wanted.

“Teacher Meng, don’t take it personally. I just wanted to test you.”

“test?”

“Well, I want to see your reaction. Maybe I can also use this to know if Kondo would still be able to continue his research with a passionate sense of justice if it was me who was injected with the drug.”

Professor Hirano patted my dream’s shoulder with his weathered hand, his strength was gentle, and it seemed to have solved some heavy knot in my heart.

“Thank you, my dream teacher.”

After saying that, he turned around and walked away slowly.

Looking at this estimated old figure, a passion rose in my heart.

She bit her lips tightly, hesitating.

But when he saw the figure about to disappear at the end, he still raised his voice and shouted loudly.

“Professor Hirano! If Mr. Kondo is really as passionate and righteous as you say, then he will definitely continue his research.”

Hirano stopped, but did not turn around, just stood there.

“Although he will be confused and afraid when he sees the technology he has invested everything in showing its terrible side, he will definitely cheer up after a short stay. It is precisely because he has seen the horror of technology that he must work harder to use it in the right way!”

Looking at my trembling palms, I clenched my teeth and clenched my fists, as if I had made some kind of decision.

“I would do the same!”

Even though it had been a long time since the words were spoken, the passion between the two still remained.

Hirano was silent for a long time, and finally after a relieved laugh, he turned around and nodded, saying: “You two really look alike, my Mr. Meng.”

……

EDF headquarters, inside the U-Force secret base.

“wrong……”

“That’s not right either…”

“None of them are right!!!”

Amid the scraps of paper all over the floor, Masaki Keigo frantically tore up the list in her hand, then she collapsed to her knees amid the debris.

“After the composition of the stone statue is analyzed, it will be no problem to copy it!”

“I have found the source of the [Light Factor] that I thought was the most difficult!”

“But why…why is it like this…”

Keigo Masaki scratched his cheeks frantically, his fair skin was twisted and deformed, and one unimaginable hideous expression after another appeared on his face.

“Why is there no one who meets the criteria for a test candidate!!!”

“Although I know that humans are too weak and in urgent need of a new evolution, I didn’t expect them to be so fragile! Their physical fitness cannot withstand the powerful energy after evolution!”

“If it weren’t for me, even the aliens wouldn’t bother to transform such a race!”

Snapped!

He swung it in anger, and the test bottle on the table shattered to the ground with a sharp sound.

Masaki Keigo pressed his hand on the table and murmured fiercely, “Before evolving towards light, this race still needs a simple strengthening…”

Then her eyes slowly turned to a stack of yellowed manila documents on the table.

The four bright red words “Confidential·Military” above have become dark and deep after decades of passage.

“Is this really the only option…” Masaki Keigo pulled out a document that had been sealed for a long time, “The cell transformation drug can directly strengthen the human body and then combine it with the [Light Factor]. Maybe it will succeed.”

Gradually, Masaki Keigo laughed, a crazy and unbridled laugh.

What was left behind were countless experimental subjects who died miserably in the laboratory.
