Chapter 507: Chapter 281: The Twisted and Brutal Genetic Chain, Challenging Dean Lao Deng (Combined Chapter, Supplementary)
Gene locks, in fact, refer to substances that appear in the body, which ordinary people do not possess.
This is also why enhanced humans, beastification people, mutants, and mutant beasts are much stronger than their kin.
These biological research institutes mainly focus their research on the gene lock.
But Brian had never imagined his own gene lock would be so disgusting.
Visible on the camera screen were tiny, pure black spheres resembling the HIV virus, still within his blood’s cytoplasm. But that wasn’t the key thing, what was truly shocking was that the surfaces of these spheres were densely covered in human faces!
Actual human faces!
The facial features were indistinct, like a layer of skin had been draped over a person’s face.
This wasn’t even the most disgusting part.
What was even more nauseating was that these faces were constantly struggling, bulging or sinking, as if attempting to break free of the black sphere’s restraints and surge into the cytoplasm...
This eerie scene made Brian involuntarily think of a Hong Kong movie from his past life called "A Chinese Ghost Story," where the Black Mountain Demon’s true form imprisoned countless souls, with human faces twisting and writhing on that great mountain...
This scene really resembled the form of Brian’s gene lock!
"This thing, I absolutely can’t let anyone see..." freewebnoveℓ.com
Brian quickly destroyed all the samples he had observed.
Actually, Brian had distinctly sensed the presence of the gene lock within his body before, but he simply thought it was just a special characteristic of his mutant body. Consequently, whenever he bled or excreted other bodily fluids, like during bloodfeeding or pulling radishes, he would control his body to expel these substances before they left his body.
Now, Brian knew that the part he had been excluding was his peculiar gene lock.
This made him feel relieved.
Otherwise, if this ghastly thing had been absorbed by someone else, who knew what chaos it could have caused.
With these thoughts,
Brian paused from leaving.
Maybe... he should give it a try?
...
Laboratories are never short of experimental subjects.
The most common are ordinary lab mice and specially bred various types of mice.
The genetic makeup of mice is incredibly similar to humans, and they reproduce quickly, so they are needed in many places to sacrifice their bodies.
Lab mice are a massive industry.
Generally used for various drug trials, disease experiments, they can be custom-bred, such as for diabetic mice, certain types of cancer mice, tumor mice...
Behind many drug discoveries lie countless bodies of experimental mice.
Of course, mice are just one type. Rats, moles, guinea pigs, and various other rodents each play their roles.
After rodents come various kinds of monkeys.
There are many other small creatures used for experiments, like horseshoe crabs that can detect bacteria, or rabbits, dogs, cats... but these animals are not commonly used for live experiments, so they’re not elaborated upon here.
Following the various monkeys come humans themselves.
Medical experiments are the most common type.
However, this category is subject to many complex regulations; additionally, drug trial participants are often poor patients or normal people trying to make a bit of money and are relatively free. There are many restrictions, and the requirements for safety are quite high.
Yet, enhancement reagents and beastification reagents are dangerous substances.
Therefore, some wrongful acts have occurred: death row inmates, criminals sentenced to hundreds of years, homeless individuals who no one pays attention to, unlucky victims of human trafficking, gamblers and addicts who have signed high-interest loans... these are all sources of test subjects.
In short,
If there’s no demand, create it.
If the demand cannot be created, then force it into existence.
Humans themselves are a renewable resource.
Beneath those hypocritical exteriors, the world is much bloodier and more brutal than Brian’s previous life.
But Brian was not repulsed by this.
After all, not everyone can truly be called human.
He would not partake in vile deeds, but he would not refuse to utilize waste.
Under his orders, the competent biological institute’s proxy, Gandob, accompanied by an armed security team, delivered some lab mice and two metal cages to a specially sealed laboratory.
Gandob wiped the sweat from his forehead:
"Boss, there’s something I must remind you, our previous Class-A goods were obtained through the corporation’s channels; now we can only rely on the connections you have, boss. But Class-A goods are in high demand, most of Los Angeles’ Class-A goods are monopolized by the officials...
Although our institute is eligible to purchase, without the corporation’s support, we can only buy at high prices.
Currently, it’s not too problematic with few projects, but once the institute gets on track, we might face significant financial pressure in this area."
Hearing this, Brian nodded.
Class-A goods are those who have lost their human rights, officially defined by the government as ’legal’ human subjects for experimentation.
He reassured Gandob, "Don’t worry, our institute won’t be conducting many human experiments in the future. With NW Operation Department’s connections, we won’t lack supplies."
Brian, utilizing his Second Level Staff identity within the NW Operation Department, could deal with criminals involved in team cases.
Such as Maggsi, who brutally killed eight individuals just to film and sell bloody videos.
This guy, after swiftly being sentenced, was directly sent over to Umbrella’s care.
With the channel from the Operation Department, securing small amounts of Class-A goods was not a problem.
However, Gandob’s words did remind Brian.
