Chapter 709: Human-Made

er eyes were just a bit bloodshot. She glanced around, making sure everyone was safe for the time being, before speaking:"Captain, the mutated white spiders here intentionally let me know they were he...Ripples, after receiving the original's memories, had reviewed their entire life and found them pitiable. Then it asked the stone mortar:

What is the original body's desire

She had no desires, death was liberation for her.

"What task am I to complete"

"Prevent this dimension from collapsing."

"So impressive! Then fill me in on the background."

This world exists with other races besides humans, vampires and werewolves are the two largest, and also the two most powerful.

Long ago, there was a race called 'Mimics'. They had no fixed appearance or attributes, but they could grow into any kind of creature.

And their reproduction and destructive power are the strongest, but vampires are inherently resistant to this race, which is related to the way "living simulacra" reproduce.

"This could be explained in more detail."

Ripple acutely sensed that this was the key message to completing the mission.

As I mentioned before, "proto-beings" don't have a specific appearance or attributes. What they eventually grow into depends on the genes they acquire.

This is a species that lies between biology and plant, when they are not fully grown, they are a plant, and have a dreamlike appearance, like a round floor lamp standing on the ground.

A slender rod at the top had a circular lantern emitting a white glow, non-aggressive in nature. Originally, the humans here called it a Lantern Tree and even chopped down some for illumination.

But disaster followed, as this lantern tree would strike when people were unprepared. From the lantern, it would extend tentacles, with spikes at their tips piercing into bodies and injecting a neurotoxin while extracting genes from them.

Because of the effects of the nerve paralytic, the person being attacked wouldn't initially notice anything. After two hours, they would start to experience dizziness and weakness, and the area where they were pierced would begin to show signs of illness.

At that time, a perfect replica of the person would be born in the center of the lantern. Once the pierced person had died completely, this person grown from the lantern tree would break free from the lantern shell and perfectly replace them.

And this pseudo-human will infiltrate humanity, beginning to spread its seeds. These seeds will fall onto humans through corrosive liquid, killing them while providing nourishment for the growth of the lantern tree. Then, another cycle of propagation begins.

After every large-scale death, a forest of lantern trees grows, slowly encroaching upon human territory little by little.

This plunged humanity into panic, because these synthetic humans were completely indistinguishable. They possessed the same genes and flesh as humans, and you couldn't tell if the person in front of you was human or a synth.

Ultimately, only the vampire race was spared, as the Lantern Tree could not replicate their genes.

From one perspective, vampires could be considered dead. When a vampire is asleep, they are essentially a corpse, devoid of activity, and unable to allow the lantern tree to extract their genes.

Vampires' powers, heightened senses, and keen sense of smell allow them to detect the presence of a newly turned vampire immediately.

To protect themselves, humans made a pact with vampires. Humans would provide sustenance for the vampires, and in return, the vampires would eliminate the chimeras that infiltrated human society and completely eradicate the lantern trees.

After the agreement came into effect, the vampire clan dispatched their offspring below the count to participate in this mission. This was also a way to train them and weed out the weak.

After the complete disappearance of humans, most vampires went into hiding. A small minority, however, continued to enjoy the lights, wine, and abundant food supply of human society.

After the crisis was resolved, humans didn't want to continue supporting vampires and instead supported werewolves to fight them. A secret organization of vampire hunters also emerged.

Of course, humans don't want to be seen as ungrateful, so they target those more extreme vampires. These vampires are mostly low-level vampires who haven't learned to control their powers, so they cause trouble everywhere.

Lower-ranking vampires easily die if caught by a blood hunter or attacked by werewolves, but higher-ranking vampires don't care about that. They only react when they lose a high-ranking offspring.

So this subtle triangular relationship has persisted until now, until a company called Creation Bio emerged.

After hearing the millstone's account, ripples suddenly felt a flash in her heart, and then she directly asked:

"Are you saying that the trigger for the dimensional collapse is something called 'Pseudo-Life'"

"Congratulations, you got it right! But the return of 'pseudo-living' is not them making a comeback, but rather humans fanning the flames of their revival!"

After a moment of thought, Lian Yi spoke softly:

Could it be related to the hybrid species created by bio companies They probably introduced "synthetic" replication properties and tried to combine the genes of vampires and werewolves.

But high-ranking vampires wouldn't be controlled and cooperate with experiments, so the first thing they had to do was create vampires themselves.

Like Originals and Taylor, they should be classified as failed experiments, so they were placed in corresponding groups and then guided into conflict.

When there is conflict, there are casualties. As for the fate of these injured or deceased vampires and werewolves, both sides in the conflict do not care, they become test subjects for their experiments.

"Bullseye!"

The stone grinder snapped its fingers, its tasker was clever.

Ripple suddenly had a bad feeling, and she said it out loud:

"The collapse of the plane must be because this hybrid breed was successfully created, and they are no longer afraid of vampires. Without their natural enemy to restrain them, these 'Second Generation Mimics' have completely taken over this plane!"

"Yes, all things give rise to and restrain one another. Such a creature without natural enemies is terrifying; the ultimate result is unrestrained proliferation, leading to the collapse of the plane."

The stone mill said helplessly.

"I don't even know how to criticize these self-destructive humans. They try to improve 'artificial life' by fixing its flaws, and then get bitten back. It's truly karma!"

Even the ripples complained.

"That's about it. You're now an intermediate-advanced tasker, so you can handle things yourself."

"I understand! Please contact me if you need anything!"

"Is there any news about the Xianxia noodles' task"

Before they severed the connection, Ripples asked.

"No reply for now, will contact you as soon as possible! Wishing you all the best with your mission!"

After being separated from the stone mill, ripples continued to push forward with the transformation of her suspended body.

"Wow! The data has changed! A 100% conversion rate! Quickly!"

The voice of Bai Dagua changed, and before anyone else could react, she grabbed a syringe and thrust it toward the lying Ripples. Unfortunately, her wrist was grabbed the next second.t this time, Yao Mei's face was pale white as she sat on the ground in the yard, still using her hands and feet to back away. It was obvious that she was frightened out of her wits.Ripple didn't have...
