Chapter 1303: Mortgaging One's Future to the World Government! (Two-in-One)
No. 0009, Beast God World, Patria Continent.
Between the Northern Patria Alliance and the Free Nation: New Patria.
There exists a vast mountain range, magnificent and towering, like a screen across the land.
Deep within the northern part of the mountain range.
It is covered in snow year-round, and biting cold winds blow in winter.
But at some point.
Stone houses lit by lights appeared here, as well as figures wearing black or blue winter clothes.
The originally uneven mountain terrain was now covered by flat cement roads.
Convoys composed of jeeps, trucks, armored vehicles, self-propelled artillery, tanks, and other vehicles, accompanied by bursts of noisy rumble, extended outwards like winding dragons.
Looking further in, one could see these personnel and vehicles.
All emerged successively from two light gates of different colors and sizes.
One was a Small Stargate, three meters high and two meters wide, with edges emitting silver-white starlight.
The other was a 'Celestial Dragon Gate', ten meters high and thirty meters wide, with edges of light blue radiance.
This was actually a space gate secretly manufactured by Im.
This name was an external hint that this 'gate' was related to the Celestial Dragons.
Further emphasizing the immense value of the Celestial Dragons to the World Government.
To put it bluntly, without Im, without the Celestial Dragons, the World Government could not exist, much less conquer myriad worlds.
Due to the larger size of the 'Celestial Dragon Gate'.
The World Government arranged for large vehicles and armored units to pass through this 'gate'.
Personnel from various departments, including soldiers of the Star Realm Army, traveled through the 'Star Gate'.
Currently entering from the Titan World side was the Second Brigade under Colonel Little George.
As he was most skilled in tank combat, his troops had a full sixty main battle tanks.
Furthermore, considering he was responsible for conquering the 'Beast God World'.
The newly appointed Army General Nikola Zhekov ordered this unit to be prioritized for re-equipping.
Therefore, Colonel Little George's brigade had undergone a complete upgrade in terms of their military uniforms, firearms, and even the models of their tanks and self-propelled artillery.
First, let's talk about the Star Realm Army's military uniforms.
With deep blue as the main tone, paired with silver-white lines and blue-gold military rank shoulder insignia, they looked very fitted and sharp.
If it was a military officer.
Different ribbon bars or medals would be affixed to the left chest, and a gold chain would hang on the right chest.
They would also wear a black coat draped over their shoulders and a pair of white gloves.
It is worth mentioning that these military uniforms, including the gloves, were made from the special material 'Demon Slayer Fiber' submitted by Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
It possessed excellent breathability, moisture resistance, flame resistance, and resistance to cold and heat.
In terms of strength, it could easily withstand the claws and fangs of tigers and leopards, and even the slashes of ordinary blades.
Next, the equipped firearms were primarily the G3 automatic rifle produced by the Munich Nation in the 'Nuclear World'.
Supplemented by MG3 general-purpose machine guns, Glock 17 pistols, AT4 anti-tank rocket launchers, and other modern weapons and equipment.
The tanks were T-95 main battle tanks produced by the Rakshasa Nation in the 'Nuclear World'.
After all of them passed through the 'Celestial Dragon Gate'.
Following them would be the officers and soldiers of Lieutenant Colonel Manfred's Air Force First Air Division and Lieutenant Colonel Karl's Navy Third Aircraft Carrier Battle Group.
As for their warships and fighter jets, they were currently shrunk into 'models' and sealed in boxes.
After finding a suitable port, they would contact the Headquarters in the Titan World to enlarge them.
Actually, Im could completely transfer the location of the 'Celestial Dragon Gate' to the sea.
And enlarge its size.
This would allow these warships and fighter jets to directly sail in from the sea of the Titan World.
However, unless necessary, Im would not do this.
Since his subordinates could find a method themselves, and the situation was not very urgent, he would not easily intervene to help.
"It... it's actually true..."
Looking at the mighty tank convoy and the teams of blue-clad, fully armed elite soldiers before him, Cain murmured in astonishment.
It wasn't just him; Hank, Schaal, Millie Elia, Elizabeth, Antonio, and others who came with him.
Were also dumbfounded at this moment, staring blankly at everything here.
Although they had learned about the existence of the World Government beforehand through 'Propaganda Films'.
When they witnessed and experienced the process of the 'Great Army Entering' on site, their body and spirit were still subjected to an indescribable huge impact.
Every single main battle tank made these Pseudo-Divine Weapons feel a strong crisis.
Because although 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' looked strong and tall, even muzzle-loading cannons could cause damage.
If subjected to concentrated bombardment from multiple cannons, most 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' would still turn into meat chunks.
If replaced by these T-95 main battle tanks, basically one shot would be enough to blow up a 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon'!
Roshi and Ruri Kohaku, the two squads of ninja responsible for bringing them over, saw this and did not rush them, allowing them to slowly recover from their shock.
They occasionally answered various questions from Cain, Hank, and others.
The patrolling Star Realm Soldiers around them just glanced over.
Seeing Roshi and the other ninja, they quickly turned their gaze away and went to other places.
The group walked and talked, and after a moment, arrived at the reception room of a three-story stone building in the center of the camp.
"Welcome everyone. I am Ilawan, the branch minister of the government branch appointed for the 'Beast God World'. I am a Sea Star Person and also the person in charge of this 'Star Gate Camp'. Please give me your guidance."
A middle-aged gentleman in a suit, with flaxen hair, appearing to be between forty and fifty years old, and with very Europa-style facial features, smiled and was the first to greet everyone.
Hank, Schaal, and others had no reaction.
But Cain, who had carefully studied the organizational structure of the World Government in the past few days, felt a chill in his heart.
Other World Government branch minister.
This meant that this man, whose blood aura seemed only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary adult, would be the highest official leader of their world!
"This is Researcher Hange from the Biochemical Research Institute. Next, she will be responsible for explaining the issues regarding 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' to everyone."
Minister Ilawan's attitude was very gentle. After introducing himself, he raised his hand and introduced the woman beside him.
"Hello everyone, I am Hange Zoe, from Paradis Island in the Titan World. I am an Intermediate Researcher."
Hange, wearing a white coat and glasses, showed an enthusiastic smile.
"Hello, Commander of New Patria, Cain Madhaavis. It is an honor to meet both of you."
As the person with the highest status on the 'Beast God World' side.
Cain stepped forward without hesitation and shook hands with Minister Ilawan and Hange Zoe in turn.
Hank didn't care about this, even though he was once Cain's captain.
All he wanted to know now was whether there was any hope of changing the despair fate of the 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons', and whether there was any possibility of Ailayin's resurrection.
The second point was what Ruri Kohaku said, that since Ailayin had complete remains, perhaps the great power of the World Government could revive her.
Mainly, he thought of Impure World Reincarnation, but whether it would work, he didn't know.
But this gave Hank a glimmer of hope in his heart...
A moment later, everyone sat around the meeting table.
Although Minister Ilawan sat in the main seat, he had no intention of speaking.
Hange Zoe pushed up her glasses under the expectant gaze of Cain, Hank, Schaal, and others, and then said:
"After our preliminary experiment and research on the remains and living body of 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons', we have confirmed that the 'Beastification' of 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' is not irreversible."
"Both the physical condition and consciousness state can potentially return to normal."
"Dr. Shouei and Master Dorothea have developed a 'White Serum' that can restore 'Beastified' 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' to human form, but the side effect is the eternal loss of the ability to transform into a 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon'."
Cain, Hank, Elizabeth, Antonio, and others across the table were first surprised and excited, but quickly calmed down after hearing the second half of the sentence.
But Hank and Cain were still very happy; at least their partners were saved!
Schaal felt regret, regretting that her father couldn't live to see this day.
As for Millie Elia, she was an extremely rare 'Sky Color Pseudo-Divine Weapon'.
She could use her special ability without transforming and had no risk of losing rationality through 'Beastification'.
Her coming along this time was purely out of curiosity.
"Of course, this is only the first generation of research results. After all, we've only been researching for just over a month."
"If you're not in a hurry, you can wait a bit longer. There will definitely be better results in the future."
However, Hange Zoe's subsequent words lifted the spirits of Cain and the others again.
Cain was shocked that the problem that made Ailayin feel despair, and even choose to personally shoot her loved one because of it.
The World Government's Biochemical Research Institute solved it in just one month.
Although there was a seemingly significant price side effect.
But the inability to transform into a 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon' anymore was a dream come true result for many people.
It could also make 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' completely exit the stage of history.
If Ailayin were still alive, she would definitely be overjoyed by this, because this was exactly what she wanted.
Elizabeth and Antonio, on the other hand, didn't like it.
What they wanted was a method that would prevent them from completely turning into 'Beasts' while retaining the ability of a 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon'.
So, after hearing Hange Zoe's words, they immediately decided to wait and see.
At this moment, Hank asked anxiously, "Can we see the specific effect?"
Although Hange's words sounded great, having experienced several betrayals, he held a certain degree of suspicion towards any words.
"Of course, we are already prepared, but we need to go to the open ground outside."
Hange Zoe stood up, looked at Minister Ilawan beside her, and said respectfully, "Then I will take them away."
"Hehehe, alright, thank you for your effort."
Minister Ilawan didn't mind at all; he was just showing his face.
As for the experiment site, he wouldn't go. Firstly, he had no interest, and secondly, it wasn't appropriate.
Just like that, everyone had only been sitting for a few minutes before they had to stand up again.
Walking out of the warm stone building, braving the cold wind and falling snow, they headed towards the open ground that had been cleared in advance in the distance.
Along the way, Hank couldn't help but ask.
"Ms. Hange, excuse me, does the World Government have the ability to resurrect the deceased?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hank thought of Millie Elia's ability to control corpses and quickly added:
"Uh, I don't mean making corpses move, but truly bringing them back to life!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze converged on Hange.
Among them, Schaal was no less nervous than Hank, because she was wondering if her father could also be resurrected?
"You mean Dr. Ailayin, right? Hehehehe~"
Hange Zoe smiled brightly.
Completely unconcerned that this was actually a very heavy and sorrowful name for Hank.
Hank felt a bit uncomfortable hearing her laughter; he hoped Hange's attitude would at least be more respectful.
But he didn't dare to voice his idea, fearing he would offend Hange.
"Don't worry, her talent has been evaluated by the Academy of Science as having significant value, so the World Government will invest certain resources to find a method to resurrect her. However, this requires you to hand over her remains to us."
Hange said this while glancing playfully at Hank.
She had heard before coming that this guy was resisting handing over Ailayin's remains, which had caused the Academy of Science to be unable to start the resurrection work.
Crucially, it wasn't even certain if she could be resurrected.
"This..."
Hank was both surprised and hesitant upon hearing this, his expression very complex.
"May I go with Ailayin?"
He wanted to accompany Ailayin, to ensure her body would not be subjected to any insult or destruction.
If she could truly be resurrected, he could also see her immediately.
Of course, Hank also knew in his heart.
With his meager strength, even if the World Government were to do something, he couldn't stop it.
But he had the courage and resolve to die fighting by Ailayin's side!
"I don't know about that. You'll have to ask Minister Ilawan." Hange spread her hands helplessly. "I'm just a small Intermediate Researcher."
Although she had quite a level of skill in researching 'Pure Titans', this was not enough to be promoted to Senior Researcher and obtain the 'Master' epithet.
So Hange had been studying diligently, working hard to improve her research strength.
At the same time, she also had to be responsible for some relatively low-end work.
For example, bringing the 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon White Serum' this time, contacting Cain, Hank, and others, and explaining the relevant situation to them was one of these tasks.
To put it bluntly, she was just a runner, but much better than a Primary Researcher.
They didn't even have the qualification to touch resources like 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon White Serum'.
Although even a Primary Researcher was an extremely excellent scientific research personnel outside.
The top academicians from the major great countries in the Nuclear World would be absorbed into the various research institutes of the Academy of Science in a few days.
Their rank would be Primary Researcher, or they would start from the even lower level of intern researcher.
"Excuse me, can my father also be resurrected? He was a former Pseudo-Divine Weapon member, 'Nidhogg' William Bancroft!"
At this moment, Schaal, wearing a simple dress, suddenly asked, her expression and tone extremely nervous.
"Nidhogg... Oh, that 'Dragon' that was entirely orange-red, right? I've seen his remains."
Hange spoke very bluntly again, saying words that made Schaal feel sad and even a little anger.
Wasn't this saying that her father had become a test subject?
"Unfortunately, his value is not enough for the World Government to invest resources in resurrection."
"However, I heard that his Lineage Factor will be used to create artificial Zoan-type Devil Fruits."
Hange's tone was very calm.
Because she felt that although the truth was cruel, it should still be known to Schaal as his daughter.
"How could this happen..."
Schaal suddenly stopped in her tracks, letting the falling snow land on her head, her face filled with disappointment and sorrow.
"Schaal..." Hank also felt sad for her, then said to Hange, "How much value is needed for the World Government to resurrect a person?"
"How would I know that? Or you could compare her to Dr. Ailayin?" Hange said helplessly.
"This..."
Hank was speechless. No matter what, he understood that Ailayin's value was far incomparable to that of a 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon'.
Just as Schaal and Hank were helpless, Cain suddenly interrupted with a smile.
"If that's the case, I think there's hope, oh. Schaal, like Ailayin, is also a 'Saint'."
"So it's entirely possible that she possesses value comparable to Ailayin. This needs to be known to the World Government."
"It just depends on whether they are willing to let her 'mortgage' her future value and then cultivate her to become the second Ailayin."
Hange, Hank, Schaal, Millie Elia, Elizabeth, Antonio, and the ninja responsible for guarding them, including Roshi and Ruri Kohaku, were stunned for a moment.
Can it be done this way?
'Mortgage' one's future value, and then achieve the present wish first?
"C-can it be done..." Schaal trembled with excitement. "If it really can, I am willing to study desperately and work hard to become a researcher like Dr. Ailayin!"
"Eh? Ah, I can't give you an answer on this kind of matter. At most, I can help you ask."
Hange didn't know whether to laugh or cry, then looked at Cain:
"I don't know what her future holds, but you are probably going to become an extraordinary figure."
"Heh, then I'll take that as a good omen." Cain made no secret of his ambition.
He wanted to make himself a high official of great importance in the World Government!
He just hadn't figured out exactly how to do it yet, so he still needed to observe and think patiently...
Thank you very much for the 100 Qidian Coin Tip from Untouchable Linkou! Bow! Thank you for your support and encouragement!
