I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature

Chapter 1049: Chapter 765: Failure

"The life preservation technology is different from the last time, but still requires you to adapt to it yourself. If you cannot succeed in this world’s environment, then we will have no choice but to look for a lower-level environment."

The World Tree battle suit transformed into new clothing, its self-cleaning function allowed her to ’battle’ in the lab without the need for an additional bath.

She loved this feature too much.

Many times, experiments require strict disinfection, but this self-cleaning feature could ignore that procedure.

Nonetheless, she would still retain the necessary habits.

"The most critical thing is your physique; it’s too stable, so we must weaken it. But before that, let’s give it a try. We have many opportunities, and if that doesn’t work, we can start by extracting part of the essence of life."

Ahn Ke took out something she had cultivated from an experiment box.

"It looks a bit creepy." Zheng Yichen looked at the things in the box, each resembling red roundworms.

These things, bathing in a certain liquid, moved slightly upon being exposed to light after the box was opened, making it uncomfortable to watch.

"Don’t underestimate them. If such things parasitize the brain, a person could resurrect even after death, maintaining their life force."

Zheng Yichen picked up a sealed test tube and examined it: "Then what’s the cost?"

"The cost is the likelihood of psychological issues, but those can be ignored," Ahn Ke explained the specific function of these things: "Mental issues often arise due to haphazard parasitic resurrection. If the resurrection is done in a normal manner, such problems won’t exist.

Another flaw is that these things are too fragile, but that’s sufficient for you."

Ahn Ke looked at the adorable creatures in the box; many issues that others saw weren’t problems to her. Mental issues arise from the chaotic parasitic resurrection that leads to an increase in the stored life information within the life roundworms.

It could be considered a split personality.

There’s also the scenario where an individual’s mental power isn’t resilient enough, collapsing before achieving symbiosis with the life roundworms.

As for shaping these things into a Life Archival Card format, it would require extra modification of the life roundworms to increase their strength.

"So, you’re planning to stuff this thing into my brain?" Zheng Yichen was somewhat resistant to this method.

"No, just like last time, you just need to digest these things. When life roundworms fuse with an individual, there is a dissolution and reshaping process."

Ahn Ke shook her head. The life roundworms are foreign objects and will only be reshaped after they dissolve in the host and complete a true parasitism.

Zheng Yichen does not need to follow this form. He just needs to digest the life roundworms, absorb the beneficial parts, and transform them into a form that can be used for himself.

Even if successful once, it’s not easy to succeed again; it requires Zheng Yichen to continuously ’cut his flesh.’

"Ordinary people do not possess your enormous life force, so they need to generate new life roundworms to preserve their life information for a life archive.

You do not need to generate such things with your life force; you only need to obtain the advantages of the life roundworms which are inherently the easiest to absorb."

As for things like the Life Archival Card, they can be considered later, after her man has firstly obtained the life preservation ability.

"Let’s start then."

Ahn Ke showed a bright smile to Zheng Yichen, taking out the surgical knife he had given her: "Let’s begin, starting with a preliminary fusion test."

This involved cutting a piece of flesh from Zheng Yichen, allowing the life roundworm to merge with that piece of flesh, and then bluntly reattaching it to Zheng Yichen.

It might not seem technically sophisticated, but this method is very effective for Zheng Yichen, with the technical parts all focused on the life roundworm.

As for performing genetic modifications on Zheng Yichen, that’s futile. Gene drugs can’t overpower Zheng Yichen’s inherently stable gene condition; they would just be digested by him.

Zheng Yichen looked with some distaste at his flesh floating in the nutrient solution; the life roundworms were zealously burrowing into it, while Ahn Ke was making additional analytical records beside it.

"Even after being severed from your body, this piece of flesh can be preserved naturally for over a month, providing there are no withering or degradation issues."

During this month, it doesn’t require refrigeration; whatever its state was a month ago, it will be the same a month later. The strong vitality makes this piece of flesh remain alive for a very long time, even unaffected by bacteria.

"In other words, I can survive a month without eating or drinking?"

"Yes, survive healthily for a month, and for you, a month is far from the limit," Ahn Ke while recording, glanced at the parameters displayed on the equipment beside her, her expression tightened: "Failed, proceeding to the next experiment."

She never thought she’d succeed on her first try. Failure is just failure, and she has plenty of materials at hand.

Are you going to eat this piece of flesh?"

"Of course not," Zheng Yichen quickly waved his hands: "Just burn it."

Ahn Ke nodded. Even if left untreated, the flesh would quickly disappear due to withering. As for others taking it away to conduct secret research? At best, they could only record Zheng Yichen’s genetic map; it’s impossible to research anything substantive.

The withering disease on Zheng Yichen’s body never disappeared, but as he grew stronger, it no longer manifested. Those who dream of obtaining his power through transformation or cloning, without his strength, will pay the price.

"This time, try lowering the life state of your arm. Can you do that?" Zheng Yichen nodded; that was easy for him to achieve.

Yet, even so, the second attempt still failed.

The next day, Ahn Qi received a call from Ahn Ke.

"What’s the matter?"

"Dear sister, help me find a suitable lower-level world, I need it urgently," Ahn Ke replied.

"?" Ahn Qi was confused as the voice she heard from the phone was tired, a rarity for Ahn Ke: "That’s not easy to find, but I’ll try my best to search and will inform you immediately when there’s news."

"Good, please hurry," Ahn Ke said before hanging up.

She looked towards Zheng Yichen in the lab, somewhat helplessly packing up the box containing the life roundworms. From yesterday to today, all attempts had ended in failure.

Life preservation is more special compared to the essence of life, but the materials they had on hand were not as good as when they researched the essence of life. The materials for the essence of life came from a high-level organism.

Without such materials for the life roundworms, even a piece of Zheng Yichen’s flesh that had separated from his body failed to merge at all, leading to a constant streak of failed attempts. Compelled by necessity, she now had to seek out an even lower-level environment.
