Chapter 68: Chapter 22: Peak Brain_2

No. 97 said, "gene module."

Hearing this, Gao Xin realized, were those enhancements that the people of Crime Prison Island evolved on their own?

Once acquired by AI, could it then mass-produce them and further enhance other Radiations?

"So there are things even AI can’t create? Makes sense, it doesn’t have a human body."

Gao Xin thought quietly, with Crime Prison Island being so lawless, could it also be to allow the Radiations there to evolve? To provide materials for Emperor Ran?

At this moment, Meimei asked, "Gene protector sells for a million coins on the outside, so the ratio between the redemption coupons and official currency is 1:100?"

Liu Xu replied, "Roughly speaking, 1 point of redemption coupon is enough for an ordinary person’s daily food needs, and they can eat quite well."

"As for the gene protector, if you exchange it officially, that’s certainly expensive. But there’s a type of black market medicine circulating on the island, a counterfeit version of the gene protector made by some power, selling for only a thousand points. It can also allow a person to reorganize after gene collapse and then become a Radiation."

Gao Xin’s eyes lit up: "Just a thousand points?"

Su Lei said in a daze, "Then... who would buy the official one? Wouldn’t that be a silly loss?"

Meimei expressed surprise, "The gene protector was invented by AI, said to involve an extremely complex manufacturing process. Some of its elements are completely beyond human understanding; someone actually managed to replicate it?"

Liu Xu nodded affirmatively, "Yes, but the mortality rate is very high, with only a one in ten chance of success..."

"So you can die?" Su Lei exclaimed, "The official protectors have a hundred percent success rate!"

"This success rate is only one-tenth? The price is also one-tenth... Hey, wasn’t it just diluted a bit?"

Meimei pondered, "Even if it’s just diluted from the genuine product, this capability is still very strong."

Everyone nodded, it’s not something you can just dilute. If it’s not a complete dose, those with collapsed genes who inject it will still die, essentially a complete waste of effort.

The counterfeiter must be a skilled cybernetic sorcerer who, after thoroughly researching the human-understandable parts, manufactured them himself, and directly dispersed the incomprehensible parts into several portions, thus achieving dilution.

Being effective even after dilution involved high technical content; the island really was full of talents.

Gao Xin frowned, "But what good does it do? Buy ten doses of the black medicine, spend ten thousand points, in the end, still only one person becomes a Radiation."

"The cost is the same, the gain is also the same, and nine people just die needlessly..."

Liu Xu responded, "But still, many people are desperate for this opportunity, wagering their lives."

"The Yakuza regularly selects people from the slaves, sends them to the radiation chambers, and then distributes this kind of black medicine, letting them gamble with their lives."

"You have to know, the chance is one in ten, but it doesn’t necessarily mean only one out of ten will survive; luck might allow several to live."

"Of course, it’s also possible that no one survives."

"After all, it’s the disposable people dying; for the Yakuza, one survivor is already a non-loss, two a big win. Considering this opportunity, tons of people are fighting over it!"

Everyone looked sorrowful; the disposable people on the island had it too tough.

This might be their only chance to turn their lives around, so even with just a one in ten chance of survival, they still take the bet. If they lose, they’re just dead.

Gao Xin then asked, "What about us newcomers, how will we be arranged after going out?"

Liu Xu sighed, "Well, of course, you will be sent to various teams, except for women and handsome men, most newcomers are first tested in the Redemption Games."

"Survivors then undergo further evaluation for special skills and physical fitness, and are assigned to different slave groups."

"Like the prey group, the labor group, the servant group, as well as the redemption group and the enforcer group."

"The enforcer group is the best; on this island, you can think of an enforcer of various powers as a civilian."

Gao Xin raised an eyebrow, "Civilian? An enforcer is a civilian?"

Liu Xu nodded, "Forget about the disposable people; only Radiations selected from the newcomers enter the enforcer group. They have a lower status than the powerful Black Hand Group, but it’s much better than being a slave."

"They are in charge of overseeing slaves, standing guard, or sometimes with no work, just training."

"When off duty, enforcers can move freely, even participate in the Redemption Games themselves, and keep the redemption coupons they earn for themselves."

"They just have to pay up a fixed 100 points every month."

Everyone nodded slightly, having time off, the ability to move freely, and private property.

Becoming an enforcer indeed amounted to becoming a civilian of this village.

Previously, Sasaki had all the Radiations step forward, then took them away, not joining them in the Redemption Games, obviously selecting that group into the enforcer group for training, and if strong enough, they could join the Black Hand Group.

Without a doubt, the Black Hand Group was the core force of various powers, people like Sasaki, Tanabu all belonged to the Yakuza’s Black Hand.

Gao Xin fixed his gaze on Liu Xu, "What about the Redemption Group? You weren’t originally from the Redemption Group, were you?"

Liu Xu shook his head, "Of course not, I only arrived a month before you. I was initially selected for the entertainment group and underwent gender reassignment surgery."

"But unfortunately, my surgery wasn’t very successful, it got messed up down there, so the entertainment group returned me, and I was sent to the Redemption Group..."

Meimei looked puzzled, "Unfortunate? I’d say you were really lucky, but why do you call it being sent to the Redemption Group?"

Liu Xu said bitterly, "How was that lucky? In the entertainment group, there’s food, drink, one’s own room, just some training daily, and at worst, later working in a gallery or a bathhouse, isn’t that much more comfortable than being a laborer?"
