I Am Extraordinary Alone

On the other side...

Wang Mingxue stood in front of the cultivation tank, staring at the pitch-black body pieced together by Leng Kai.

After being killed by Divine Power Tianyang, his shattered body fused with several Demon Marine Corps corpses, forming a body over two meters tall.

Now, Leng Kai is an experiment platform, naked, wearing a plastic mask connected to a tube to deliver Black Medicine through his mouth. His abdomen is also cut open with a thumb-thick tube inserted, connecting to internal black organs to adjust their functions at any time.

The liquid immersing Leng Kai is not ordinary, not only preventing the body's decay but also containing various special agents primarily to stimulate the body's skin, making it easier for it to absorb Black Medicine.

At this moment, Wang Mingxue is no longer the ordinary soldier she once was, her grandfather and lover were both killed by Divine Power Tianyang, and Wang Ye is missing. She has lost everything, leaving her with only revenge in her heart.

Thus, she resolutely underwent enhancement surgery seven years ago to become part of the Demon Marine Corps. During this period, they have secretly ventured out to seek survivors using radio but found nothing. Last year, the first Demon Marine Corps died out due to flaws in the enhancement technology, forcing them to finally face their fate.

Li Suyuan and the early volunteers for surgery among the Demon Marine Corps are reaching their end. Some died in the seventh year, while others, though alive, are experiencing physical decline.

Those like Li Suyuan and Wang Ye who underwent surgery early are called the First Generation, Wang Mingxue is the Second Generation. Following them were over a thousand regular soldiers who also underwent surgery, becoming the Second, Third, and Fourth Generation Demon Marine Corps, totaling 1000 members. The remaining 400-plus soldiers didn't refrain from surgery out of reluctance, but rather at Professor Feng Nuoyi's choice to stagger the procedures to ensure the survival rate and longevity of the Demon Marine Corps.

It's cruel, but under the current circumstances, life is currency, to be fully utilized.

Most of the Black Medicine infused with Divine Power Tianyang has been used in experimentation, yet without progress on Feng Nuoyi's end. This situation leaves Wang Mingxue extremely anxious. She desperately wishes to fly to Heisai State to seek revenge against Divine Power Tianyang, but she understands that her current abilities would lead only to her own death, offering no chance of victory.

She also wants to return to Greenland to find Wang Ye but is stopped by Feng Nuoyi. Everyone knows Wang Ye's fate but refuses to speak it aloud.

Agony and despair permeate the base, suffering seems to have a tangible scent, like the sour Black Medicine.

In this hopeless moment, Feng Nuoyi finally presents his research results. His dream and plan of nearly ten years ago have been realized under these dire conditions.

In the silent hall, Wang Mingxue and Li Suyuan sit at the aluminum long table, watching Professor Feng Nuoyi before them.

"So... this Black Medicine is theoretically viable?" Wang Mingxue asked.

Feng Nuoyi nods and says, "Leng Kai helped me achieve 90%, but the remaining 10%, he cannot help."

"What went wrong?" Li Suyuan asked.

"It's not that something went wrong, it's... he is a dead person, he's dead," Feng Nuoyi sighed.

"Just how potent is this Black Medicine? Is it enough to defeat it?" Wang Mingxue straightforwardly asked.

Feng Nuoyi seems without confidence but says, "I can't predict the result, I can only explain the effects of this Black Medicine to you."

Li Suyuan looks at Feng Nuoyi, filled with anticipation.

"Do you remember many years ago when Spencer II from United Pharmaceuticals led a multinational joint force to Heiside State to slay the Pseudo-God?" Feng Nuoyi asked.

Wang Mingxue nodded and said, "Of course, we remember, then they were all killed. Later, our spy team unearthed some intelligence; they were deceived and merely cannon fodder. Spencer II wanted to use them to draw out the Pseudo-God, but he underestimated it. How is that related to your research?"

"It is related, United Pharmaceuticals stored the most Black Medicines in existence. Spencer II was too arrogant, thinking he controlled the Federation, so he took with him all the military forces of the enterprises he could command, including those freaks he created. This gave us an opportunity..." Feng Nuoyi said.

"What does this have to do with us?" Li Suyuan asked.

"Before the Army left the Federation, they dispatched a squad to raid United Pharmaceuticals' warehouse, guess what they found? They found all the Black Medicines stored by United Pharmaceuticals, including those provided to the army, a large portion sealed away, and astonishingly even found the Black Medicine from the Lingxian Sect!" Feng Nuoyi said.

"That's impossible... the Task Force wasn't given such a mission!" Wang Mingxue said.

"This was Price's plan. He said we'd have to do unhuman things eventually, better get the dirty work done early and prepare in advance," Feng Nuoyi said.

"I start to miss that old fellow..." Wang Mingxue said.

Price died in his sleep eight years ago, his lifelong regret was not witnessing the end of the war.

"How did the Lingxian Sect's Black Medicine end up in the Federation? I've seen the intelligence, back then Pseudo-God helped the Emperor crush them, leaving their fallen bases in Yin Country," Li Suyuan said.

"Later, when the Emperor mutated, Venerable Qin from Yin Country sold all the Black Medicine to the Federation; or perhaps semi-sold, semi-gifted. Regardless, we now hold that stuff, and I've done the craziest thing," Feng Nuoyi said.

"How many kinds of Black Medicine are there...?" Wang Mingxue asked.

"Including what we originally had, a total... over ten thousand kinds. Specifically, fifteen thousand six hundred twenty-four kinds of Black Medicine. I fused them into one using the Lingxian Sect's technical principles, plus the Pseudo-God's Black Medicine as an adhesive. This Black Medicine is the darkest in the world; it doesn't reflect light, even a flashlight doesn't cast a shadow... it's like it absorbs light," Feng Nuoyi explained.

"This sounds like... poison... whoever uses it will die! Just mixing three to five Black Medicines can kill someone, you merged this many?" Wang Mingxue said.

"This brings us back to the beginning; Leng Kai helped me with 90%. This Black Medicine, injected into his corpse, according to test results, can work. Those abilities truly glowed in the spinal cord... and his body changed, the flesh turned pitch-black, horns grew from the forehead, identical to the Pseudo-God..." Feng Nuoyi said.

Wang Mingxue and Li Suyuan remained silent, knowing what this meant.

"I've used this forbidden technology to create another Pseudo-God. This is our last chance, but do you know what remains as the 10%? I don't know what will happen if this Black Medicine is injected into a living body," Feng Nuoyi said.

At this point, Li Suyuan raised his head and said, "I'm dying soon, try it on me."
