Chapter 455

The panic continued. Most of the Desolate were mutating. Even if they did not go extinct this time, they were close to it.

Thanks to Yun Yi and Bo Nan's timely intelligence, most of the Celestials responded in time. There were some injuries, but not many. After all, the quality of the Celestials was not to be trifled with.

The Celestials began to shrink their defense line. After what happened to the Desolate, the Celestials could no longer control such a large territory. They could only shrink.

Yun Yi did not participate in the snake hunt. He was a researcher, and what he should do was what a researcher should do.

In front of him was a one-eyed human-headed snake. Unlike the other human-headed snakes, this human-headed snake was transformed from a celestial being.

After he was bitten by the human-headed snake, the poison entered his body. It did not go through the channel of consciousness, but directly into his body, so he still retained some basic reason.

He volunteered to be a test subject. Yun Yi's surgical experiment on him, and he could vaguely describe any real feelings he had.

"Did it work?" The one-eyed human-headed snake laid on the experiment table. His face was twitching uncontrollably. His entire body was trembling. The bone-deep pain was tormenting him, forcing him to spread the poison. However, he endured it all, using his willpower to resist the pain from his soul. He tried his best to express his feelings clearly.

"It worked!" Yun Yi, who had finished writing the final experiment notes, squeezed a smile on his face, and reached out to the Celestial.

"Really? That's great!" There seemed to be a different kind of light shining in the remaining snake's eyes. It seemed to be relief, or maybe it was relief, or maybe there was nothing at all.

Yun Yi closed his eyes, and the big snake totem behind him shone. He used the sacrificial power as much as he could, and a huge force exploded in Yun Yi's hand, smashing the human-headed snake and its soul into pieces.

Looking at the flying powder, Yun Yi coldly ordered the experiment table to collect the infectious substances.

It was not hatred, nor was it because he had lost control of his power. It was just that Yun Yi, who had cut his body piece by piece, understood how much pain this Celestial was suffering. If possible, Yun Yi did not want him to live for another second.

But to ensure the accuracy of the experiment, he had to keep his life while cutting his body, and then test the reaction of various drugs to his body.

Sometimes, when he couldn't express his feelings clearly, Yun Yi had to do the same experiment several times to ensure that the information he got from the other's mouth was accurate.

Retracting his hand, Yun Yi bit his lip and walked to the bathroom to wash his hands. Then, he splashed water on his face. His eyes were red as he wiped the water off his face and continued to work.

"The experiment results are out." Yun Yi handed the heavy stack of documents in his hand to the others. Everyone present had solemn expressions on their faces, even Yun Rong, who was becoming less and less proper with Killer J, had her eyes closed, seemingly trying to suppress some sort of emotion.

"The power of infection codenamed poison is a variant of the totem's original power. It contains fragments of information about the so-called Serpent of God. It knows too much about the Desolate Man. Under the impact of the poison, no Desolate Man can resist the infection. Even a Celestial Being will be infected and mutated if the poison is directly injected into his body."

"The best way is to prevent the poison from entering the body."

"Also, the locator has been developed." Yun Yi lifted one of the boxes, revealing a huge snake eye inside. The eye was always staring at the same spot.

"What an infuriating slowness!" Yun Rong opened her eyes. This person who always wore a mask seemed to be showing a hint of seriousness at this very moment: "That bastard tried to infect me through my consciousness, I definitely won't let him get away with it. I'll be participating in this operation. The one peeping over there, do you want to go?"

"Who's peeping? Hah, who's peeping? " Killer J loudly shouted from the door, then noticed the solemn expressions of everyone in the room and awkwardly explained: "About that, your teacher had originally wanted to join in on the fun … to eliminate the bad guys, but unfortunately, the boss has reached a crucial point. After a while, I will have to return to the boss's body for a period of time to upgrade and modify myself"

"But don't worry, little disciple, before I leave, I'll definitely teach you my ultimate technique!" Killer J smiled sheepishly and expressed his intentions clearly. None of the three of them could participate in this operation, so the Celestial Beings could only rely on themselves.

"I've already expected this" Yun Yi wasn't disappointed, as this was within his expectations. The greatest danger that the Celestials faced in the past had always been Negri's will blocking it for them in the ancestral wasteland, and now that Negri had won, they would have to face the aftermath of their own desolate consciousnesses. If they couldn't even deal with that, then the Celestials would truly be a bit lacking.

"Then let's do it this way. Gather everyone, we'll find that damned insect and have him pay back some of his debts!" Po Nan stood up. His body seemed to have been wrapped in bandages that covered a bit of his skin.

It was said that he had gone to Noah and asked for something. Noah wasn't as sentimental as Lanshan and wouldn't accept a disciple, nor was he like Killer J who had the chaotic thoughts of taking Yun Rong as his disciple in a fit of pique.

His actions were almost identical to Negri's, he would give any talented person he met a chance to grow stronger. As long as one was determined enough to discard the limitations of their past, Noah would give them that chance.

He wouldn't play the game of taking in disciples. Everyone was both his experimental subjects and his chess pieces, but it was clearly much easier to obtain power from him compared to the other two.

Lanshan was sentimental, but if your talent wasn't as good as her eyes, she wouldn't even open her eyes to look at you. Killer J's thoughts were chaotic, but if you tried to take advantage of him, you would learn what it meant by 'no one can afford to offend Killer J.'

Yun Rong only happened to be there, and Yun Rong's ability was quite interesting, which was why Killer J decided to playfully give her a certain amount of training.

Noah was the only exception. There were countless people who had obtained power from him, although most of them had not survived.

Quite obviously, as the head of the propaganda department, Po Nan had to watch as his own students turned into monsters in front of his very eyes, which stimulated him and also became a stumbling block on his path to eternal peace.

He had two ways of doing this. He could either lower himself and ignore all these emotions and let them go, or he could eliminate the source of these emotions and turn it into a part of his past.

Obviously, Po Nan chose the latter.

Carrying the case, Yun Yi pushed up his glasses, allowing the signal to flow through them. One should never underestimate the destructive power a researcher could unleash once they've made sufficient preparations. Yun Yi didn't like to destroy things, but if he didn't do so this time, he would be letting down the hand holding the scalpel.

As for Yun Rong, she had been dragged away by Killer J, saying that he wanted to teach her his ultimate technique, so she would soon catch up to them.
