Chapter 445: Chapter 448: Lies in Anime_1

"All in all, everyone needs to pool our wisdom together to help me out of this tough spot. You have to understand that my disgrace is also your disgrace," Yang Gang declared, utterly shameless.

Everyone except Shen Jing wore dark expressions.

"Feifei, being the sister of such a man must be tough," Gu Xiaorou turned to face Yang Fei.

Yang Fei shrugged, letting out a long sigh: "Isn’t that the truth?"

Yang Gang was dissatisfied: "Hey, Yang Fei, Gu Xiaorou, are you guys slandering me again! As women, you need to understand the virtues of obedience and gentleness. Stop whining and shouting so much. Look at Shen Jing, she is the epitome of a virtuous wife and good mother. This kind of woman is what every man loves."

Shen Jing’s face flushed red in an instant, her head slightly downcast, her cheeks burning hot.

Yang Fei and Gu Xiaorou had dark expressions on their faces.

Damn it, they couldn’t refute him at all!

At this moment, Shen Jing coughed lightly and whispered: "Let’s... umm.. think of ways to boost our popularity, hmm?"

A proverb says, ’money makes the mare go’. Should we try bribing?" Yang Gang suddenly suggested.

"Denied!" Yang Fei and Gu Xiaorou said in unison.

Yang Gang broke out in a cold sweat.

Little Qi moved closer to Yang Gang, whispering: "Gang, those two women aren’t ordinary women, they belong to the War Goddess category."

"War Goddess?" Yang Gang gasped.

He was currently watching an anime called "King of Magic Bullet and War Goddess," the seven War Goddesses in the show each possessed overwhelming power, making them formidable foes known as Female Demon Kings.

"War Goddess huh, on second thought, it’s a pretty fitting metaphor," Yang Gang murmured.

"Right?" Little Qi paused and continued, "Any ordinary man would find it hard to manage even one. I think you should leave Gu Xiaorou to me."

Yang Gang’s face instantly turned black, "Over my dead body! I’m going to start my own harem!"

Little Qi also wore a dark expression, "Bold words. Who do you think would want to share a man’s love with other women? Yang Fei? Xiaorou? Or maybe Sister Xiaoxi?"

Yang Gang wilted instantly, he sighed, speaking softly, "I know it’s impossible. I guess those harmonious harems in anime are all lies."

Everyone subsequently put forth several suggestions, but none of them were accepted.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

The person who entered was none other than Haixing University’s chairman Xia Ziyang.

He glanced at the banner hanging at the podium and said lightly, "You can save your energy. The board of trustees just held a meeting and decided to remove Yang Gang from the position of student council president. A new president has already been appointed."

"Hey, Brother Ziyang, I was recommended by you. If I leave, wouldn’t it reflect badly on you?" Yang Gang protested.

Xia Ziyang sighed, "You all are oversimplifying Haixing University. There’s more to it than meets the eye..."

His words trailed off abruptly, he evidently didn’t want to elaborate.

"Honestly, I’ve always thought Haixing University wasn’t simple. Does anyone know who founded our school?" Yang Fei spoke up.

Everyone shook their heads, clueless.

Xia Ziyang chuckled, "Feifei is quite perceptive. To be honest, even I don’t know the depth of Haixing University."

"Well, I wasn’t that interested in the position anyway," Yang Gang paused and then asked, "But, I am curious, who is the new student council president?"

"Well,.." Xia Ziyang hesitated and then said, "You would eventually find out, so I might as well tell you now."

He paused briefly before continuing, "It’s a boy named Gu Feng, parachuted in from another university."

Pfft!

Yang Gang looked annoyed.

Gu Feng, could he really be Gu Xiaorou’s childhood sweetheart? Damn, he’s really unstoppably persistent!

"Um, President, what do you mean by ’our brother school’?" Shen Jing asked curiously.

"Yes, it’s a university located in the United States that shares a foundership with our private Haixing University – it was established by the same founder. But this fact is not widely known. I would appreciate if you all could keep it quiet." Xia Ziyang explained.

"Oh," Shen Jing nodded, not asking any further.

"That’s all." Xia Ziyang then turned his attention to Yang Gang and said indifferently, "Yang Gang, come with me."

Yang Gang nodded.

The two left the Student Union Office and walked along the winding paths of the school.

"Um, Brother Ziyang, you wanted to see me?" Seeing that Xia Ziyang remained silent, Yang Gang had to break the ice.

Xia Ziyang took a deep breath, then looked at Yang Gang and said with a faint smile, "Gang, you really have no feelings left for Zi Han?"

Yang Gang was stunned; he didn’t expect Xia Ziyang to bring up Xia Zihan.

After a pause, Yang Gang asked, "Brother Ziyang, is there something you can’t quite express?"

Xia Ziyang looked ahead, then said, "Zi Han is close to losing her mind."

"What?"

"Being engaged to someone you don’t love, must be quite hard on her," Xia Ziyang said quietly.

Yang Gang understood the implication.

He kept silent for a moment, then asked, "Brother Ziyang, about that Huang Tianlin..."

"Appears noble and virtuous from the outside, but is indeed a scumbag," Xia Ziyang interjected.

Yang Gang looked surprised, "Why is that?"

Xia Ziyang fell silent then, only after a long while, he said, "Simply put, it is for breeding."

Yang Gang was taken aback, "How do you mean?"

"Genetic modification is now public knowledge. But the public’s understanding of genetic modification is still very superficial. They are not even aware that there are levels of excellence in genetic modification.."

"Um..." Yang Gang raised his hand sheepishly, "Actually, I have no clue about the levels of excellence in genetic modification either.."

Xia Ziyang rolled his eyes slightly and pondered before saying, "Due to issues related to adaptability, genetic modifiers are generally divided into two tiers: Low-level genetic modifiers can only strengthen their physical fitness, and most genetic modifications belong to this category. High-level genetic modifiers, on the other hand, can activate the Seventh Brain Domain. Of course, these are successful cases of genetic optimization. Those who failed in their optimization do not count."

"The Seventh Brain Domain?" Yang Gang quickly grasped the key point.

Xia Ziyang nodded and continued, "Among the structural aspects of the human body, the most mysterious part is the brain. About twenty years ago, Hell Baby, who was a pioneer in genetic modification, believed in this concept: humans have only tapped into a small part of the brain’s potential; there is still massive room for human evolution. She claimed that most people have only developed less than 1% of their brain domain, and even one as great as Einstein had developed only around 3%. To prove her theory, Hell Baby commenced her research in genetic modification.

Eventually, Hell Baby led her research team to make a breakthrough. They discovered that the human brain is divided into regions—six in total—they control senses, thinking, movement, endocrine functions, genes, and subconscious thoughts, respectively. In addition to these six domains, Hell Baby’s report claimed the existence of an unknown, dormant Seventh Brain Domain within the human brain."

Hell Baby believed that the Seventh Brain Domain will be key for human evolution. However, how to develop the Seventh Brain Domain remained a mystery even to Hell Baby.

Later, the scientific facts proved Hell Baby’s theory.

The normal functioning of the six brain domains could enhance human intelligence, physical strength, reaction speed, cell regeneration, and healing abilities, etc. While the development of the Seventh Brain Domain, that would tap into God’s Forbidden Zone."

Because, once the Seventh Brain Domain is successfully developed, it would be like humans attaining the divine powers of a god. For instance: the ability to foresee the future."

ps: The explanation about genetic modification might be a bit boring, but it is crucial. It sets the worldview and the plot development for this entire novel.
