    Chapter 211

    One day, Yashan returned alone from Huixiang City to Su Hao's experimental base in Temple Forest City.

    The moment he landed in the courtyard, he saw Su Hao already waiting for him.

    Yashan hurried over with a grin.

    "Boss Wei! Great news!"

    Su Hao waved his hand.

    A diamond table and two chairs rose from the ground.

    Taking a seat first, he gestured toward the opposite chair.

    "Sit down. Tell me slowly."

    Yashan obediently sat down.

    "Boss Wei, the first batch of students from the Wei Academy—Huixiang Branch..."

    Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly stopped and looked around.

    Something felt off.

    A moment later, realization struck him.

    "Boss Wei, wait just a moment! I'll be right back!"

    How could such important news be discussed without a table full of delicious food?

    Su Hao froze for a moment before smiling helplessly.

    It had indeed been quite a while since he had enjoyed one of Yashan's meals.

    Waiting a little longer wasn't a bad idea.

    Soon enough, Yashan returned carrying a table full of steaming dishes.

    Only after both of them had eaten their fill did the conversation continue.

    Yashan said excitedly,

    "Boss Wei, the first batch consisted of two hundred students."

    "They've already completed their first evolution trial."

    "One hundred and thirty successfully evolved inside the Experimental Mutant Beast Zone."

    "Eighteen withdrew voluntarily."

    "As for the rest..."

    "They all died."

    "Our expectations were completely fulfilled."

    "Everyone in the Temple Forest Society witnessed the results with their own eyes."

    "There isn't anyone left who doubts the New Century Project anymore."

    Su Hao nodded casually.

    "Not bad."

    "The mortality rate is a little high, though."

    Yashan shook his head.

    "It may seem high, but to everyone else, it's perfectly acceptable."

    "Evolving into a mutant has always carried enormous risks."

    "Before entering the mutant classes, every student already understood they might lose their lives."

    "Compared to never having the opportunity at all, they're more than willing to accept that risk."

    "Nowadays, countless people are competing just to enroll."

    After thinking for a moment, Su Hao said,

    "Have future students enter the Mutant Beast Zone in groups of three or five."

    "Their survival rate should improve considerably."

    Yashan's eyes suddenly widened.

    He slapped his thigh.

    "That's right!"

    "Why didn't I think of that?"

    Everyone in the Temple Forest Society had been celebrating the first trial's success.

    No one had stopped to think about reducing casualties.

    Yashan immediately decided,

    "Starting with the next class, all students will enter in groups of three."

    He continued,

    "Boss Wei, the two Super Mutant Beast Zones have now been completely finished."

    "They've both passed every safety inspection."

    "We're ready to begin releasing mutant beasts."

    "There were originally two proposals."

    "The first was to divide each Super Mutant Beast Zone into eight separate regions, each dedicated to a single evolutionary sequence."

    "The second was to release all sequences together while adjusting their proportions."

    "After discussion, the Temple Forest Society unanimously chose the second plan."

    "What do you think?"

    Su Hao nodded.

    "Either approach works."

    Yashan immediately smiled.

    "Boss Wei, would you like to inspect the completed Super Mutant Beast Zones yourself?"

    After thinking briefly, Su Hao agreed.

    "It would be best to take a look."

    The two wasted no time.

    Transforming into their Child of Fate forms, they shot into the sky and flew toward the distant Mutant Beast Zone.

    ...

    The scale of the Super Mutant Beast Zone was astonishing.

    Its total area was almost comparable to an entire nation.

    Yet compared to the world itself...

    It was still only a tiny corner.

    The forest of Barrier Trees stretched endlessly toward the horizon.

    Even viewed from high above, the protective forest remained over ten kilometers wide.

    Landing at a random location, Su Hao stood atop one of the Barrier Trees.

    He infused it with Blood Qi and recorded its information.

    Little Light immediately began analyzing its genetic structure.

    Moments later, the report appeared.

    "Mr. Su Hao."

    "Genetic comparison complete."

    "The specimen is suitable for propagation."

    "All descendant Barrier Trees will function normally."

    Su Hao nodded before taking flight again.

    As they circled the entire Mutant Beast Zone, he periodically selected random Barrier Trees for inspection.

    The full circuit required two entire days.

    Finally, they landed atop a mountain inside the Mutant Beast Zone.

    Looking across the endless wilderness, Su Hao nodded in satisfaction.

    "You've done well, Yashan."

    "There are no problems with the Barrier Trees."

    "The area is also large enough."

    "It can comfortably sustain mutant beasts of every level and gradually develop into a complete ecosystem."

    Yashan scratched his head sheepishly.

    "If you hadn't insisted on making it bigger back then, Boss Wei..."

    "I'd probably still be guarding that tiny experimental Mutant Beast Zone."

    "Only now do I truly understand what you meant."

    "The achievements of an organization depend entirely on the vision of its leaders."

    Su Hao smiled faintly.

    "No one is born with vision."

    "It comes from experience."

    "It comes from seeing enough."

    After a pause, he continued,

    "Use this as the standard for every future Super Mutant Beast Zone."

    "They may be larger."

    "They must never be smaller."

    Yashan nodded firmly.

    "I understand."

    Su Hao's expression gradually became serious.

    "Yashan."

    "Now that we've chosen this path, there are many things we need to guard against."

    "You should remember one principle."

    "It's always easier to destroy than to build."

    He pointed toward the endless forest surrounding the Mutant Beast Zone.

    "Let me ask you something."

    "If someone deliberately destroys the Barrier Trees and releases the mutant beasts..."

    "What would you do?"

    Yashan immediately fell silent.

    He no longer possessed the naïveté of his youth.

    Having lived for over fifty years, he understood all too well the darkness hidden within human nature.

    Given enough time...

    Someone would inevitably attempt such a thing.

    If every Super Mutant Beast Zone were destroyed simultaneously...

    The consequences would be catastrophic.

    After thinking for a long time, Yashan slowly shook his head.

    "I don't know."

    "No matter how I think about it, I can't find a perfect solution."

    "If someone is determined to destroy them, we can't guard every section of the boundary forever."

    "The best we can do is repair the damage afterward."

    Su Hao nodded.

    "There will be many problems like this in the future."

    "They all appear simple."

    "But once you actually face them..."

    "You'll discover they're incredibly difficult to solve."

    Yashan sighed.

    "I've experienced that countless times already."

    "So..."

    "What should we do?"

    Su Hao pointed toward the endless Barrier Trees.

    "When you look at this forest..."

    "What do you think keeps the mutant beasts inside?"

    Yashan answered without hesitation.

    "The Barrier Trees."

    "That's everyone's first impression."

    Su Hao smiled.

    "And if I planted several other species of trees inside and outside the Barrier Trees?"

    Yashan thought for a moment.

    "Then I'd assume those trees were responsible."

    Su Hao continued.

    "What if I also carved enormous rune patterns throughout the surrounding area?"

    Yashan's eyes gradually brightened.

    "I'd probably believe the runes were doing the real work."

    Su Hao nodded.

    "And what if..."

    "I deliberately left several obvious gaps in the Barrier Trees..."

    "Gaps that actually served no purpose whatsoever?"

    Yashan immediately understood.

    "Then no one would suspect the Barrier Trees anymore."

    "They'd all believe the runes were the real barrier."

    "Exactly."

    Su Hao smiled.

    "No matter what methods you use..."

    "Your objective is the same."

    "Divert everyone's attention away from the Barrier Trees."

    "Make them appear to be the most ordinary, insignificant trees in the entire world."

    Turning toward Yashan, Su Hao said calmly,

    "So..."

    "Go create a lie."

    "A lie convincing enough that the entire world accepts it as truth."

    "Engrave that lie into everyone's minds."

    "As long as it continues working..."

    "Keep lying."

    Yashan's face gradually flushed with excitement.

    The thought of deceiving the entire world strangely thrilled him.

    He nodded vigorously.

    "I understand, Boss Wei!"

    Su Hao smiled with satisfaction.

    After a moment's silence, however, Yashan scratched his head awkwardly.

    "But..."

    "Boss Wei..."

    "How exactly do we deceive the entire world?"

    Su Hao nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

    After explaining so much...

    It seemed Yashan still hadn't understood a thing.

    Sure enough...

    The honest Yashan might be capable of fighting an entire army by himself.

    But asking him to deceive the whole world...

    That was asking far too much.
