Lin Hao’s face turned pale. He frantically continued working, hoping to find more information before the system shut down.

But as the energy bar depleted, warning messages flickered incessantly on the screen. Finally, with a soft electronic chirp, all the equipment in the laboratory shut down completely.
The lab plunged into darkness, but everyone had already turned on their flashlights in anticipation.
Bena and Lin Hao exchanged a look, each seeing the disappointment and helplessness in the other’s eyes.
"It seems we’ve done all we can," Bena said in a low voice.
Lin Hao nodded. "Yes, Captain. We’ve found important information about the KY-240 gene. It might be the key to the Beastification ability."
Zhou Mei added, "That’s right. This information is crucial for us. We need to take it back for more in-depth research."
Bena nodded. "Alright. Let’s leave for now. We’ll discuss this in detail once we’re back."
With that said, Bena led the team out of the laboratory. They carefully navigated the dark corridors, eventually returning to the entrance of the metal structure.
As they stepped out of the metal building, sunlight washed over them, bringing a touch of warmth. But their hearts were heavy with unease.
They knew that while this expedition had yielded some key clues, many mysteries remained unsolved.
The relationship between the KY-240 gene and Beastification, as well as the truth behind the Cataclysm, still lay hidden within these ruins.
Bena and Lin Hao looked at each other, seeing the resolve and determination in the other’s eyes. They believed that if they kept trying, they would one day uncover these secrets and find the real answers.
"Alright, let’s head back for now," Bena said in a low voice. "We’ll take this information back and study it carefully."
"Understood, Captain," the team replied in unison.
With that, Bena led the team on the journey back. They crossed through the ruins and returned to the teleporter in October Town.
When Ye Yun saw Bena and his team return safely, a relieved smile spread across his face. He immediately had Bena give a detailed report of the expedition.
After hearing Bena’s report, Ye Yun was satisfied with the outcome of the mission.
Although they hadn’t found all the answers, the discovery of the KY-240 gene was undoubtedly a vital clue.
Ye Yun looked at the data in his hands, his eyes filled with contemplation.
He knew this information would have a profound impact on the shelter’s development.
’Perhaps in the near future, we could use this gene-tech to cultivate more individuals with Beastification, or even develop new ability users.’
’But I also know that these technologies must be used with caution.’
’The history of the Cataclysm is a warning. Any excessive interference with nature could lead to unforeseen consequences.’
Ye Yun decided to put the data away for now. He would conduct more in-depth research after finding more clues and information.
「At the same time.」
Just then, a quest panel popped up in front of Ye Yun.

’Although this operation was cut short due to the lack of energy, we still managed to uncover plenty of useful clues.’
’If we get a chance to find a new energy cell later, we might be able to find even more.’
Under Ye Yun’s management, the various affairs of the shelter were proceeding in an orderly manner.
Everything from the training of new members to the production and trading of supplies was advancing steadily. As time went on, the shelter’s strength continued to grow.
However, Ye Yun didn’t let his guard down. He knew that in this wasteland, danger was everywhere, and a single moment of carelessness could lead to a point of no return.
Ye Yun opened the system and began to check the shelter’s various stats.
Used Space: 15
Vacant Space: 0
Food Reserve: 300/300
Freshwater Reserve: 300/300
Power Reserve: 500/500
Medicine: 30/100
Construction Bots: 6/6
Advanced Bioroids: 2/2
Bioroids: 5/5
Normal Humans: 15/15
Shelter Members: 18
Looking at the shelter’s stats, a satisfied smile appeared on Ye Yun’s face.
After such a long period of development, the shelter’s strength had increased significantly.
