Chapter 220: Chapter 198: The Origin of Beastification (Part 2)

[The team believes that research into the KY-125 gene will bring about unprecedented changes for humanity.]

[We will accelerate our research and strive to apply the KY-125 gene to a wider range of fields as soon as possible.]

Lin Hao read aloud, explaining the contents of the logs to Bena and the other team members.

They learned that the lab’s researchers had achieved significant results in their study of the KY-125 gene. The test subjects exhibited Beastification abilities, which was undoubtedly connected to the secrets of the Beastifications.

"This KY-125 gene is likely the source of the Beastification ability."

Lin Hao said grimly, "We need to take this information back for more in-depth research."

Bena nodded.

"That’s right. This information is crucial for us. But we still need to be careful not to trigger any other security systems."

As a Beastification, Zhou Mei had a deeper reaction to the content of these logs.

She could feel a close connection between the experiments and research recorded in the logs and her own history, as well as the history of the Beastifications.

"The changes in the test subjects’ serial numbers show that this lab conducted a massive number of experiments in its Beastification research."

Zhou Mei said in a low voice, "We need to find more information about these test subjects."

Bena agreed with Zhou Mei’s point. "Exactly. We need to find the records for the test subjects and see if we can find any clues related to the Beastifications."

Lin Hao began operating the terminal, trying to find the test subject records. With P5-level clearance, he could access more data.

However, as he worked, a warning message appeared on the screen.

[Warning: Data corrupted.]

[Some test subject records have been lost and are inaccessible.]

Seeing this message, the color drained from Lin Hao’s face.

"Looks like we were too late. Some of the key data is already lost," Lin Hao said grimly, a frustrated look on his face.

Bena frowned.

"This might be damage from the Great Cataclysm. But we can’t give up. Let’s keep searching for other potential clues."

Zhou Mei and the other team members also continued searching the lab, hoping to find more useful information.

However, another notification popped up on the screen.

[Current Energy Reserve: 4.9%]

[Warning! Energy reserve low!]

[Warning! Energy reserve low!]

[Entering low-power mode!]

As soon as the countdown finished, the lab’s bright lights began to dim.

As the energy reserves dwindled, the lights in the lab grew dimmer, and some of the equipment began entering low-power mode.

Bena and Lin Hao exchanged a look, and both saw the anxiety in the other’s eyes.

"We have to find more energy cells immediately, or the equipment here will shut down completely," Bena said gravely.

Lin Hao nodded. "Yes, we need to move now.

Zhou Mei, take a few people and go check the energy cell storage containers we found earlier. See if there are any left."

"Understood." Zhou Mei nodded in agreement, then led several team members quickly out of the lab and toward the storage room.

Zhou Mei and her team moved quickly through the corridors, returning to the storage room where they had found the energy cells before.

They meticulously checked every corner, hoping to find any remaining energy cells.

However, the storage room was indeed depleted of energy cells. Not a single usable one remained.

Disappointment showed on the faces of Zhou Mei and her team members.

"Captain, the storage room is completely out of energy cells. We didn’t find any new ones," Zhou Mei reported to Bena over the communicator.

Bena’s expression grew heavy. He knew that if they couldn’t replenish the power supply in time, the lab’s equipment would soon shut down, and they would lose their chance to uncover the secrets of this metal structure.

"Everyone, keep searching in other areas. We have to find new energy cells," Bena commanded grimly.

Realizing they couldn’t find any new energy cells, Lin Hao grew anxious.

Lin Hao immediately went back to work on the terminal, hoping to find some useful information before the power ran out.

But as time passed, the energy indicator continued to fall. The lab lights grew dimmer and dimmer, and some devices had already stopped working.

[Current Energy Reserve: 4.5%]

[Warning! Energy reserve low!]

[Current Energy Reserve: 4.1%]

[Warning! Energy reserve low!]

[Current Energy Reserve: 3.4%]

[Star Shining 2109, March 11]

[Experiment Log]

[The KY-240 gene has entered mass production and is being gradually delivered to the military for use.]

.........

As the energy indicator continued to drop, the atmosphere in the laboratory grew increasingly tense.

Bena and Lin Hao knew they had to find a solution quickly, or they would lose this precious opportunity for exploration.

Moreover, they seemed to be getting closer and closer to the truth.

The gene product had already been deployed for military use. It seemed the cause of the Great Cataclysm was a devastating war between several great pre-cataclysmic nations that had laid waste to the entire continent.

Lin Hao stared intently at the screen, trying to find more information about the KY-240 gene before the power died completely.

He knew this might be their only chance to understand the relationship between this gene and the Beastifications.

[Star Shining 2109, March 15]

[Experiment Log]

[Mass production of the KY-240 gene has stabilized. The military is very satisfied with the test subjects’ performance.]

[The test subjects have demonstrated extraordinary combat capabilities and adaptability. They are expected to be deployed in actual combat in the near future.]

[Meanwhile, we are still optimizing the KY-240 gene, hoping to further enhance its performance.]

Just then, however, the energy indicator on the screen dropped to a critical level.

[Current Energy Reserve: 2.8%]

[Warning! Energy reserve low!]

[All non-critical systems shutting down!]

Bena and Lin Hao exchanged a glance, both seeing the anxiety and helplessness in the other’s eyes.

They knew that if they couldn’t replenish the energy supply in time, they would lose this chance to explore, and all their discoveries and clues would vanish when the systems shut down.

"Everyone, pick up the pace! We have to find new energy cells!"

Bena ordered, his voice laced with urgency.

Zhou Mei and the other team members searched other areas carefully, but they still couldn’t find any new energy cells.

The lights in the lab had become extremely dim. Most of the equipment had already shut down, with only a few critical systems still clinging to life in low-power mode.

[Star Shining 2109, April 3] [Experiment Log] [The combat trials for the KY-240 gene have been a huge success.] [The test subjects demonstrated immense combat power and survivability on the battlefield, far exceeding our expectations.] [The military has decided to deploy soldiers modified with the KY-240 gene on a large scale and plans to use them as a main force in future wars.]

A look of delighted surprise appeared in Lin Hao’s eyes when he saw this log. He immediately showed it to Bena, Zhou Mei, and the others.

"Captain, look! This KY-240 gene—it’s very likely the source of the Beastification ability," Lin Hao said excitedly.

Bena, Zhou Mei, and the others crowded around. They stared at the log on the screen, their faces a mixture of shock and excitement.

Zhou Mei said grimly, "This KY-240 gene is most likely the origin of the Beastification ability. We must find more information about it."

Bena nodded. "That’s right. This discovery is crucial for us. Lin Hao, keep searching for related information. We can’t afford to miss a single clue."

Lin Hao immediately returned to the terminal, trying to find more data on the KY-240 gene. However, as he worked, another warning message appeared on the screen.

[Warning: Energy reserve below safety threshold.] [System shutting down. Please replenish energy immediately.]
