Chapter 1352: Chapter 1350: The Last Legacy

Han Dong had just fallen into the Organic Research Institute hidden underground when a discomfort similar to needle pricks spread throughout his body.

“What’s going on? My current state is the Posture of the Deceased…”

Hints of metallic qualities were already emerging on Han Dong’s exposed skin.

Previously at the station, the floating metal spores didn’t take any interest in Han Dong, who was as The Dead, but now they ‘infected’ him immediately – it definitely wasn’t just because of the concentration of the spores.

“It must be a combination of high-concentration pathogens with a certain realm, forcibly eroding my Body.

It must be a kind of high-end realm capable of ‘Reality Intervention’ effects.

Can a Mythic Body’s realm achieve this extent? To envelop a research institute as vast as a labyrinth.”

Anxiety was gradually accumulating in his heart; Han Dong’s speculation about the level of Handsome Jack leaned more towards King Level.

At the same time, Han Dong was estimating his own rate of infection.

In about five hours, the infection will have occupied more than 50% of his body.

“If we go by the competition’s timing, five hours is more than enough… Let’s not deploy my realm to resist for now, a little reservation would be convenient for later discussion.

Besides, the nature of this infection is akin to a plague, which quite suits my Right Arm.”

Just as Han Dong was planning to check the situation in the nearby laboratories, Jack’s voice came through the broadcast:

“Welcome to the competition hosted by Mr. Jack, the handsomest of all Pandora.

I believe you’ve intimately felt the metallic tingling sensation spreading throughout your bodies, yes! That’s right! The concentration here is nothing like the areas you’ve experienced before; this is the “Final Inheritance” left by this handsome guy in Pandora.

Your Bodies come from different worlds and possess different attributes.

I believe you can better adapt to the fruits of the research that my team and I spent decades on.

Of course, for those who are not adaptable but are very capable, I also have provided an alternate competition route.”

The rules are simple.

You just need to meet the corresponding requirements to win.

1. Find the [Original Bacterial Strain] hidden in the research institute, a total of three strains.

Their ‘storage’ methods and locations are entirely different; you will need to find the strains based on the clues in the research institute.

Once you have a strain, inject it, take orally, or absorb it directly using your abilities in whatever way you think is appropriate.

Survive after absorbing all strains while maintaining consciousness, and you’ve passed the challenge.

Let me remind you, if the strains are absorbed by other participants, you can achieve the same effect by Devouring their flesh, and the absorption efficiency might even be higher.

2. There is a [Developer’s Passage] inside the Organic Research Institute

Specifically for participants unsuitable for bacterial strain inoculation, you can freely destroy the scenery and find the entrance to the Developer’s Passage to claim victory.

However, this is more difficult than the former, please be cautious.

The competition will officially begin in fifteen minutes; during this time, other participants might arrive, so make sure to go for it.

…

“The ‘Final Inheritance’ left in Pandora? Jack and his scientific team have studied this for decades.

It seems that the research isn’t completed yet… They’re one step short of the result, which is to synthesize the three different strains of bacteria ultimately.

Now Jack has returned and wants to use this competition akin to ‘raising gu’ to utilize our bodies for the synthesis of the three strains.

The successful will indirectly become an object, taken back to the Black Tower by Jack.

Playing quite the game of chess, aren’t I?

However, it just so happened that I was chosen to participate in this gu-raising contest, and I am rather proficient in biological research related to pathogens.”

Han Dong has been very interested since the first time he saw “metal spores”.

Now it seems that metal spores are just low-grade products of the research facility.

Thanks to their excellent air transmission properties, they were spread by ‘Handsome Jack’ throughout other areas of the company, to fend off and infect invaders, while also serving a screening function.

Only those who resist the initial infection are qualified to participate in this competition.

[The Game Begins]

Instead of immediately rushing to the various laboratories that might store bacterial strains, Han Dong inspected the office, quickly flipping through the documents left there.

Whether it is some seemingly useless manuscripts or diaries that contain personal information, Han Dong skimmed through them as much as he could.

With the first layer of Talent Tree – Dark Knowledge unlocked by Han Dong, as he completed opening the gate, he perceived the truth.

The passive bonus effect also obtained a huge improvement, exponentially increasing Han Dong’s reading ability, and even when reading these simple documents that don’t require understanding, he could easily multitask.

The Demon Eye emerges.

All three of Han Dong’s eyes on his face were inspecting different documents, omitting a large amount of irrelevant information, only collecting the key points to store in his brain.

Gradually, Han Dong had organized in his mind what exactly the Hyperion Corporation’s classified Organic Laboratory was up to.

“Jack is a talent.

On such a planet that is directly related to metal, when everyone discovered that Iridium ore had ‘technological leap’ characteristics, research focus was all placed on military weapons, intelligent machinery, space technology, and other studies directly related to physics.

While developing in physics, Jack also devoted some of his thoughts to the biological field.

Attempting to make a breakthrough in biology with the ‘technological leap’.

However, the deeper research content is all hidden, and the purpose of the research is not clear yet…”

Continuing to monitor the research files, he finally collected information about ‘bacterial strains’, with the following clues:

The first type of bacterial strain has a strong carnivorous trait, requiring a large amount of meat protein daily, otherwise, once malnourished it will quickly lose activity, transcribing toxic proteins within cells to self-degrade.

The second type is named ‘The Lifeless’.

Note: This strain has extremely high lethality. Personnel below Level C are forbidden to approach, and Level B researchers must report to management and obtain permission before entering the cultivation room that stores this strain.

The third type of strain has a high imitation metal and metal reliance.

If there are no metallic materials within a ten-meter radius, the activity of the strain will decline exponentially and completely deactivate after five minutes.

If there are metallic materials within a ten-meter radius, the strain will adsorb and imitate them.

“Got it… just need to follow the clues to find the experimental area with the corresponding traits.

The first one should be easy to find, since it needs to eat meat continuously, it must also need a constant supply of flesh.”

Earl Release, maximally enhancing the sense of smell, precisely captures a hint of meaty odor interspersed in the air.

Passing through dark experimental corridors and crossing layers of rubber curtains, he comes to the depths of a secret laboratory… The scene before him undergoes a 180deg transformation.

The cold, dilapidated metal style of the laboratory directly changes into a slaughterhouse.

The entity referred to as ‘meatball’ by the robot Little Yellow, like a white pig, was skewered through with shoulder blades by two iron hooks, transported to the cultivation room in a hanging fashion.

Han Dong’s gaze had already noticed a cluster of ‘minced meat conglomerate’.

“Is this thing the bacterial strain?”
