“Fetal movement undetectable. Signs of life undetectable!”
“It’s not working… it failed again!”
Vincent watched as the few lives that had just been born vanished before him, causing him to be very depressed. Genetically, there was nothing wrong; their life templates were complete and their designs were logical. He did not know why he kept failing over and over again.
After he had begun the Immortality Gene Editing Plan, he had been trying to create an intelligent species with an extremely long lifespan. To achieve this, he had been adding sections of plant genes to existing genes of new humans.
The self-repair abilities and vitality of plants far exceeded that of animals. Even if a plant was chopped up into a few pieces, as long as there were water and sunlight, it could grow out again. Whether it was underwater or on land, cold or hot, plants could be seen; they were even found in harsh environments such as dese
“What’s wrong?” Vincent asked.He had gone to the mall with Sophie and was having lunch with her, when he noticed that she looked like she wanted to say something but was holding back. Therefore, he put down his chopsticks and looked at Sophie.Sophie shook her head. “Nothing,” she said. “It’s just that every time I see you, it always feels like you have become a bit distant and unfamiliar, even though we have just met up not long ago.” Vincent knew that this was because he had been frequently entering the Scroll of Creation, where he would spend a few months each time. Whenever he met up with Sophie, only one day would have passed for her since their last date, but to Vincent, it would be a reunion after parting for a long time.“Doesn’t that make me seem more mysterious? I feel different every time!” Vincent remarked with a smile.Today, Sophie seemed to have lost her usual queen-like tem
On the bed, Phoebe clung onto Vincent’s back, her hands roaming over his lean muscles as if she was not willing to let him go. Vincent turned around and wrapped his arms around her shoulders. With their bodies touching, they stared into each other’s eyes.Phoebe grinned and said, “I kept having dreams about you after we were apart. Vincent, you’re a perfect lover to me!”“A lover? What do you mean?” Vincent immediately questioned.Phoebe smiled at once. “It means that you’re not a suitable husband or boyfriend for me. Whether it’s me, your Sophie, or your future girlfriends, we’ll all feel that you’re unreliable!”“…”Vincent suddenly remembered something. “Wait. I thought you said that your ex-boyfriend came back. So why are you here now?”Phoebe held out her right hand to show Vincent the ring on her slender finger. “That&rsqu
As he grew older and closer to death, Akhenaten became increasingly fearful. He feared the feeling of growing weak and knew that death was creeping closer and closer. Recalling his glorious life, he did not want it to end just yet.Akhenaten remembered the burly man he had encountered when he was young, the archangel Faros that had held his hand and told him he would one day become a king of mankind. He was the messenger of the gods that had given him his divine sword and godly powers, and the man who had bestowed him knowledge of the gods. Akhenaten wanted to meet the angel again. Even if he had to die, he wanted to go to the Divine Kingdom and become an immortal being like that angel!He began commissioning many temples dedicated to the Goddess of light Gaia. He became a pious believer, spending a large amount of time praying in front of the statue of Gaia every day.During the last two years of his life, he took all the gold he had accumulated and ordered the best sculptors in his
This was the second time Vincent was trying to alter his body, and he was getting more practiced at it. The biggest difficulty when it came to creating the elixir of life was solved when the elves were created. The only thing left to do was experimenting with the elixir and trying to get the success rate as high as possible.Vincent injected the elixir into his body and immediately felt his body changing. He was experiencing an immense change straight from within his genes. However, it was different this time. He was changing his entire body, not just a specific part of his body, and thus this attempt was much riskier. The elixir was not directed at altering a specific organ in his body. Instead, the elixir was made to change the very genetic components of his body, turning his genetic makeup into something akin to the elves.This transformation was much more difficult than the ones he tried out before. In the past, he could never even dream of attempting something lik
Vincent walked out from a police station in a small town in Nanyang County, Chuang Province. He had contacted a friend of his that was selling forged identities and procured a list of people who had died, but had not yet been recorded by the authorities. He highlighted a few men that was of the same age as him, then went to the cities they lived in to apply for a replacement national identification.Vincent’s method was simple. All he had to do was slightly hypnotize the officers with his mind power to take his cues, and they would approve the application. After that, the officers took new photos of Vincent and issued him the replacement national identification and the household register.He used his mind power to affect the optic nerves of the officers, then used his sub-brain to create an image that he wanted the officers to see and sent it directly into their optic nerves. Thus, whatever they were seeing through their eyes were all things that Vincent wanted t
Vincent sat in front of a bar in his hotel in London, wearing a newly made suit he had ordered. It was custom made by an old and famous shop frequented by the riches. He wanted to avoid wearing famous brands again because he was called “parvenu” with his luxury-branded outfit in Russia. He was wearing a very expensive watch that cost him fifteen thousand euros. Vincent had spent one hundred and fifty thousand euros, or close to a million yuan. Even though he did not know why the watch was worth that much, it was expensive, and Vincent just wanted to enjoy the feeling of spending money like water!He had spent almost a month traveling the world. He had arrived first in London. When he was learning English at young age, the first book his mother bought him was Harry Potter, and he became very interested in England. Because of this, he made England and Scotland his first stops. He had toured every place that Harry Potter featured.After that, he
The Source Form flowed into Vincent’s mind structure, and he felt his mind power growing again. He could feel himself approaching his limit of his meditation, and he knew that if he kept going, he could become assimilated into this zero-dimension world. At this moment, Vincent realized that he could not pull back his mind power. His mind power had an intense transformation in this unique space. All of his mind power clamored like water approaching the boiling point.He felt his mind power and his consciousness melding together. As the two began fusing, every shred of his consciousness became imprinted with his mind power. It seemed like his mind power was enough to hold his mind. Before, even though he had his mind power, his mind, thoughts, and memories were still dependent on his brain. After breaking through into this stage, it seemed as though his mind power could store all of Vincent’s consciousness.“I didn’t expect that my consciousness a
It had been almost eight hundred years since Vincent left after creating the elves. The acceleration of time had also gradually decreased to about 4000 times that of normal. It had only been shy of two months on Earth, but in Gaia’s World, dozens of human dynasties had risen and fallen. Even the first generation of a long-lived species like the elves were entering their final years.It had been almost fifteen hundred years since the birth of the orcs and twelve hundred since the birth of the humans. Over a thousand years of development, because of the large amounts of trade, coupled with the birth of religion and Bloodline Knights, the division between classes, as well as the rich and the poor, became wider. The civilizations also gradually went from a primordial era of cities and tribes to an era of nations. Countries of different sizes started to appear on the Alen continent. Throughout the constant separation and merges, the territories of the humans and orcs gradual
