Chapter 653 Alpha, Madman
Gu Qingyuan looked at the creature in the nutrient chamber in front of him. The creature could only be described as half a person, quite human-shaped. Most of the torso below the neck was the same as that of a normal person, but the rest of the body was a branch of flesh and blood. The branches took up most of the nutrient chamber, floating with the dark green liquid in the chamber. At the original head of the biological sample, there were flowers in full bloom, with dodder-like vines entwined around it.

[Sample name: Mushuren]

[Survival time: three natural days]

[Although I cut off some branches of the Immortal Ancient Tree to give the sample the vitality to break through the upper limit, but without the limiting threshold of the subject’s will, the frenzied vitality will only give birth to countless trees, and it is difficult to maintain the human form. Even if I cultivate it through technical means and use the fruit of the Immortal Ancient Tree as a carrier, it is difficult to achieve the expected goal.]

[The experiment has undoubtedly failed. Perhaps the life form cultivated by the fruit of trees is too different from the human being born from the womb. The elf I expected did not appear, but this kind of monster was cultivated instead, a mindless, violent half-tree man? ]

[I don’t have much time left. The remaining gene original body can’t let me squander it for a long time. Maybe I can change the direction and use the beast form as a sample, then cultivate the beastman, and then complete the transformation into a human through transformation, just like the monster who refined the horizontal bone in my memory? What kind of existence is a human being, and what kind of great power does it contain? Even with my current knowledge reserve, it is difficult to fully analyze all the mysteries.]

There was a piece of paper with sloppy handwriting under the nutrition chamber where the wooden tree man was stored, as if the researcher just casually recorded his own experience, which was more of a reflection on the experiment. Following that paragraph were large pieces of fragmented quotations, like the mumbling after waking up from a dream. Overall, this person, who was more like Frankenstein than a researcher, was not in a very good mental state.

What Gu Qingyuan noticed was that the scribbled piece of paper contained familiar Chinese characters. In the bloodline knowledge of the Demon Wolf, even the interactions among human overlords were in another self-contained language and writing system, so the identity of this person could be basically confirmed!

Walking past one nutrient chamber after another, the biological samples inside became increasingly bizarre. Gu Qingyuan looked at them one by one and was able to generally find similar sources from his memory, such as orcs with animal heads and human bodies, vampires with wings and fangs, elemental bodies made entirely of stone or water, or goblins similar to goblins.

However, none of these experiments were successful. There were always various defects in the biological samples. These were not naturally evolved individuals, but synthetic humans born through genetic adjustment. The fusion of genes would always lead to conflicts of one kind or another. The information contained in a single gene fragment was enough to fill several large libraries.

The consequence of genetic mutation and conflict is that the lifespan of these biological samples is drastically reduced. Among thousands of samples, the longest-lived one only lived for less than a year before dying of genetic exhaustion.

A series of failures also made the mental state of the person leading the experiment increasingly unstable. As time went on, the recorded information began to become increasingly chaotic, mixed with a lot of useless exclamations, madness, and hysteria.

Gu Qingyuan discovered that there was only one person in this vast demiplane, no other life forms, and the only things that accompanied him were fleeting experimental creations.

[Three days ago, the biological samples I brought with me were used up. The experiment did not go smoothly. Gollum only lived for 312 days. This was because I cut a large number of genes and only retained the main gene fragments. But even so, he died of organ failure.]

[Now, I have lost all my experimental materials and live alone in this lifeless world. None of the plants transplanted to the outside world survived, as if this is a forbidden zone for life.]

[My spirit has started to suffer from the long wait. Even if I have eternal life in the physical sense, the loss of my soul will still exist. Perhaps one day I will become a madman, a psychopath, or a monster. I should prepare a cemetery for myself.]

[The experiment was successful. I overlooked the most important biological sample. The experiment can continue.]

[Adam is very healthy. He is already three years old and has a strong learning ability. I should consider making him my assistant. Even with the assistance of the intelligent brain ‘Origin’, it is still too inefficient for one person to support the operation of the entire institute.] [Adam has learned his first word. His learning ability is indeed strong. I want to pass on the knowledge I have learned to him. I hope I am a good teacher.]

[He calls me dad. Well, at my age, it’s normal to be called dad. Does this count as being a father? Oh, by the way, Adam understands Linear Geometry. He’s such a smart kid.]

Adam is dead

[The experiment failed again, but we are one step closer to the expected result. Some areas need improvement. I need a large number of samples as controls. The ecological park can accommodate them. Maybe I should decide on a name. Alpha is good, let’s take it.]

Gu Qingyuan flipped through the experimental report in his hand. It was more like a diary, recording Alpha’s various emotional changes and strange ideas. When the biological samples were exhausted, the diary was discontinued for a while, and then the experiment began again.

The only choice for the missing biological samples was Alpha, and he began to experiment on himself.

The birth of Adam made the almost crazy researcher feel much better, but Adam’s death also shattered his faith. After that short line of words, this diary began to look like a real experimental report. The cold narration, numbers, and records represented the disappearance of lives.

Gu Qingyuan quickly sketched out the image of Alpha in his mind, an immortal species who had mastered powerful high-tech technology to extend his lifespan indefinitely. At the same time, the image of a researcher who did not have the mentality that an immortal species should have began to take shape.

In science fiction terms, the long period of time caused Alpha to lose his emotions, become numb, and go crazy. To put it in a more fantasy way, it was a mismatch of state of mind, leading to obsession. After all, technology emphasizes speed and quickness, and it cannot do much for the mind, unless it is the idealistic AT stance or mental protection. For one with that level of idealistic power, it doesn’t matter what is manifested. The fact that such a thing can be born shows how powerful the mind is.

As a person who started out in the fantasy genre, Gu Qingyuan knew too much about mysterious things like the mind and state of mind. The so-called spiritual power is like a crystal ball, which can be very hard and cannot be broken by hammering, or it can be very fragile and break with a single poke.

Take the common methods of seduction such as the Heart Sutra of the Beautiful Girl as an example. It is not like the protagonist in some novel who says that he has watched countless movies and can see all the uncensored cavalry, so he is immune to the methods of seduction and can remain calm.

If that were the case, that group of evil witches from the demon cult and the Blissful Demon should have smashed their heads against each other and died. This kind of martial arts is the power of the mind, stirring up emotions. As long as there is a slight ripple, they will take advantage of the opportunity and fall into the illusion and be unable to extricate themselves.

As for Alpha’s state, there was no mental explosion to resist all kinds of monsters. According to the diary in his hand, Alpha has survived alone for at least three thousand years. The power of the mind does not increase with long life, but is worn out with the passage of time.

In other words, Alpha, he’s crazy.
