Chapter 1454: Chapter 632: The Ambition of Divine Beast_2

Lamp God said this, but Mu You knew that deep down, he must still hope for resurrection.

Unfortunately, this isn’t something he could decide—it all depends on Blood God’s condition after revival.

Mu You shook his head, refocused his attention, and returned to the game.

[You arrive at the center of the base, stopping in front of a corridor, moving carefully along the wall...]

In the game, Mu You maneuvered his character to one of the corridors. The rooms along this hallway were unremarkable, but at the corner of the corridor, the map revealed the interior wall of the ’Contaminated Material Disposal Room.’

In other words, just beyond this wall were the two gods, along with the Blood God’s Trunk.

Previously, Mu You couldn’t overhear the conversation between the two gods from the doorway. Now, at this corner, he was even closer.

[You release ’Existence’; your presence significantly diminishes.]

[You release ’Heightened Awareness’; you can now see through every movement within the surrounding area.]

[Through the perspective of Heightened Awareness, you see behind the wall: God of Decapitation and Seam God gathered around a workbench. The table is covered in various precise experimental instruments, and at one corner, a cylindrical transparent container holds Blood God’s Trunk, submerged in some kind of specialized liquid. Numerous blood-red tubes extend from its surface to the world outside the container...]

[At the outlet of the connected tubing, you see drops of dark blood forming at an excruciatingly slow pace before dripping into a test tube beneath.]

[Seam God takes the blood-filled test tube and inserts it into a specialized device. Through a series of transformations and material infusions, it results in a faintly crimson syringe.]

[Seam God grabs the syringe with one hand. With the other hand, he reaches into a metallic box filled with liquid nitrogen-like materials, rummaging around before pulling out a jellyfish-like cottony creature.]

[This cotton-like creature resembles the Divine Beast you’ve encountered, though it has subtle differences—it seems able to survive a prolonged time in open air, and it’s visibly observable with the naked eye.]

[Seized by Seam God, the cottony creature struggles violently in his grip. However, Seam God firmly restrains it, invisible strands of string forming from his fingertips to latch onto various points across the creature’s surface.]

[In the next second, the cottony creature, like a puppet on strings, rises into the air—its movements dictated by the pull of Seam God’s hands.]

["Let’s begin." Seam God said, turning his gaze to God of Decapitation, who held a scalpel and toyed with it absentmindedly. Seam God moved the cottony creature in front of him.]

[God of Decapitation gripped the small blade tightly, his eyes fixed on the levitating creature. Suddenly, his right hand swung. The scalpel carved through the air, releasing bursts of micro-cutting Sword Qi, each slash slicing through parts of the cottony creature...]

[Within seconds, when God of Decapitation ceased his movements, the cottony creature had been separated into over twenty parts, each connected by threads but floating independently.]

[A fascinating phenomenon stunned you: despite being dissected into multiple segments, the cottony creature showed no signs of death or discomfort. All the severed parts continued moving as though still interconnected and undisturbed...]

["Your turn," God of Decapitation uttered flatly, stowing the blade before leaning back leisurely against his chair, showing no further interest.]

[Seam God extended another thread from his fingers, attaching it to the syringe, levitating it and bringing it close to the floating cottony creature.]

[Steeling himself with a deep breath, Seam God carefully maneuvered the threads guiding the syringe, aligning the needle to a precise location on the cottony creature’s form. He pushed gently, injecting a few drops of the crimson fluid...]

[As the pink fluid entered its body, the originally transparent cottony creature immediately turned vivid blood-red, thrashing wildly in the air like a Berserk monster. Yet Seam God restrained its movements with his threads, binding it securely to forestall any chaos...]

"..." Mu You’s expression twisted in perplexity—he wasn’t quite clear on what they were attempting here.

From appearances, it seemed like they were modifying the Divine Beast in some way, using the extracted blood from the Blood God’s Trunk...

"So that’s why the Divine Beast wanted Blood God’s Trunk..." Mu You frowned, refraining from alerting them and chose to observe further.

The experiment evidently required meticulous precision—any slight mistake could lead to complete failure. Seam God continued cautiously manipulating the threads, spending over ten minutes injecting every segment of the cottony creature. At this point, the syringe was completely emptied.

[...The cottony creature’s body had entirely turned crimson and was violently convulsing in mid-air. Seam God exhaled deeply, wiping sweat from his brow before discarding the empty syringe. He then moved to stitch the scattered parts back together one by one with his threads...]

[Finally, as the last piece was sutured into place, the cottony creature regained its original form—but its Berserk state worsened. Even with Seam God binding it through multiple layers of threads, control seemed increasingly difficult to hold.]

[From a distance, a research assistant promptly pushed forward a cage. Inside was a semi-conscious Stone Rabbit Man—this rabbit-headed, human-bodied creature was one of the intelligent beings you’d once encountered often in the Crow Tribe.]

[Seam God used threads to send the crimson cottony creature into the cage, then released the bindings.]

[The Berserk cottony creature, resembling a zombie, leaped immediately. It lunged at the Rabbit Man’s face, forcing its way in through the rabbit’s mouth...]

[In the next moment, the languid Rabbit Man inside the cage twitched violently. His eyes turned blood-red, bleeding from all seven orifices, and flailed madly, ramming against the cage walls in agony.]

[Half a minute later, the Rabbit Man—his head shattered and body bloodied—finally ceased moving as his life trickled away, his body becoming eerily rigid.]

["Another failure..." Seam God murmured as he frowned at the Rabbit Man’s lifeless body in the cage. He noted the results on a record book nearby: ’Experiment No. 3259: Failure. Cause: Excessive vitality, biological rejection...’]

"!!!"

Mu You was shocked. These gods were so cautiously modifying their own kin, only to create a Divine Beast capable of parasitizing other creatures?

Yet alongside his shock came a gleeful realization: this was self-destructive behavior!

So far, why had only the Divine Race and the Fool relentlessly fought against the Divine Beast?

The answer: the Divine Beast directly threatened their very existence! From the moment parasitism emerged, they became locked in a life-and-death struggle with the Divine Beast.

Other races, meanwhile, had remained indifferent—some even allowing the Divine Beast’s existence. For those races, the Divine Beast posed no immediate danger.

But now, the Divine Beast was actively manufacturing such hostility!

If it truly developed the ability to control other intelligent species, then those species under threat would inevitably align with the Fool against it.

On the other hand, Mu You found it puzzling. By all accounts, the Divine Beast was a civilization of advanced intelligence. Shouldn’t this basic risk-benefit logic be apparent? Such extreme efforts brought them little advantage while propelling them closer toward annihilation.

So, why were Divine Beasts displaying this insatiable greed, unwilling to settle for replacing the Divine Race as the dominant power—now seeking complete dominance over other lifeforms too?

Was their ambition so boundless that only parasitizing every living species in the entire world would satisfy them?

Mu You couldn’t understand the Divine Beast’s maddening motives for now. Regardless, for players like him, this was undoubtedly a golden opportunity.

Naturally, at this moment, Mu You wouldn’t interrupt their actions. On the contrary, if given the chance, he would even assist the Divine Beast further—helping them plunge deeper down this path to self-destruction.
