Chapter 1681: Chapter 1679: Recycling

Whoosh!

A stable portal for spatial transmission slowly tore open in the Gaine Forest.

Han Dong, draped in the Crow Robe, once again set foot in this lush and vibrant forest, standing before the fallen remains of the “Biological Planet.”

Gazing at this nearly perfect planet, flawless and without blemish,

Han Dong even envisioned in his mind various interstellar travel scenarios utilizing this entity in the future.

Whether it’s heading to the Center of Chaos for insane mutual benefits with Green,

going to the Grey Realm to complete the final piece of the Mythical Puzzle,

or traveling to other Shattered Dimensions to seek ‘food’ for the Demon Sword,

even on a day when he receives guidance from the Void, he might travel aboard the planet.

Throughout the Demon World, there are very few instances of using a planet as a spacecraft (except for demons that are planets themselves), let alone a Biological Planet that can traverse Shattered Dimensions, integrated with Migo’s highest technology.

Just as Han Dong couldn’t wait to step into the planet and reactivate it,

Buzz! Another portal tore open.

Inside the portal corresponded to a higher-level Void Passage… Nicholas arrived.

He didn’t look directly at Han Dong but instead fixated on the Biological Planet before him, murmuring:

“Is it convenient for me to join you inside?”

“Of course it’s convenient.

If it weren’t for you, Nicholas, coming to the depths of the Temple to get me out, I probably couldn’t have walked out on my own back then.”

Han Dong smiled, showing no resistance to Nicholas visiting at this moment.

He also understood the reason Nicholas came at this crucial moment.

As he advanced along the net road of the Biological Planet, the planet’s exterior structure was severely damaged due to the heavy attacks, even of King Level, during the escape.

However, since the planet was constructed in the Migo style, the truly important areas were inside.

With enough nourishment, the planet can self-repair.

No communication occurred during their journey,

until they stepped into the familiar Central Laboratory, where Nicholas broke the silence:

“Nicholas, doesn’t your orally recounted experience contradict the facts?”

“Huh?” Han Dong acted as if he didn’t understand anything.

“Although everything you recounted seems logically sound on the surface, the high-level authorities of the school, who weren’t directly involved, also believe it adds up, and the final outcome is what they wanted.

But one point seems deliberate.

Even if you risked everything to bring out the Atomic Fungus that Morgan wanted from the depths of the Temple, the final piece for his ‘self-completion,’ earning some trust.

Morgan wouldn’t conduct important completion experiments right in front of you, would he?”

“Oh? Didn’t I mention that?

At the time, Morgan detected I was in a deep coma before conducting the ‘self-completion’… It was only because of my special traits that I awoke from the coma early and had the chance to infiltrate the planet’s System.”

“Let me put it this way.

If you were Morgan… about to conduct an important ceremony that mustn’t be disturbed.

Yet, there’s an uncertain element beside you, someone you’ve controlled and taken as a hostage.

Even if they’re comatose, they might awaken early.

Would you keep them by your side?

The reason Morgan was comfortable leaving you beside him… is because you’ve long established a certain firm cooperative relationship, even building absolute trust due to a particular event.

The mental control you exhibited to us and the hostility towards Morgan was just a facade, right? After all, that’s one of the tactics you’re best at.”

Upon hearing this, Han Dong no longer hid the truth, spreading his hands.

“Ah~ Nicholas, you probably figured it out long ago, didn’t you?

However,

since you’ve deliberately waited until the final results were out to discreetly expose my ‘immoral actions’… you probably don’t plan to report me, right?”

Nicholas replied earnestly, “I’ll act according to the circumstances.

I want to know, why did Morgan choose to cooperate with you? What conditions did you offer him to make him willing to transfer all this to you?

Also, is there any possibility that Morgan might return?”

“Actually, the way I established a relationship with Morgan is quite simple.

Morgan’s only obsession is conducting [biological research].

I merely showed him more selectable paths with lower risks and exchanged a world I held for his planet and technology.

Furthermore, I can guarantee with my life.

Morgan will never pose a threat to S-01 again, and the research achievements he makes in another world can even be shared here through me, resulting in a win-win situation.”

Listening to Han Dong’s statements, Nicholas also observed his eyes.

Although Han Dong is skilled at masquerade, this time he wasn’t lying.

“When did you start planning this?”

“In Zothique,

when I realized Morgan’s essence, I realized his research nature was akin to mine.

Although Morgan is heinous, much of his ‘evil’ stems from inherent defects… and it would be too wasteful to simply eliminate such talent.

Handling it in this ‘exile-like’ manner is probably the best result, don’t you think, Nicholas?”

“As long as the final outcome benefits Mi University, I don’t mind.

Let’s leave it at that, I won’t hold you back from collecting your spoils…”

Though Nicholas didn’t express it, what he desired most was precisely such a result… deep down, he also acknowledged Professor Morgan’s talent.

As Nicholas was opening the Void Passage, intending to leave.

Han Dong suddenly reached out to stop him.

“Since you’re already here, why not stay and lend a hand… also to witness some new things.”

With that, Han Dong released something.

A dense brain fluid odor spread throughout the laboratory, scaring Nicholas into thinking Morgan was still hiding here, immediately triggering the “Void Stance.”

However.

What ultimately appeared was a Swollen Doctor, with a brain embedded with gears, a plump and worm-like body, and several arms.

Only, the Doctor’s aura, as well as the body’s condition, were entirely different from what Nicholas remembered.

Overall, there was a sense of touching the Mythical realm, with a brain gyri circuit constructing a “mind map” even Nicholas found hard to comprehend.

Nicholas voiced in shock, “Are you saying Morgan offered not just technology, but also his entire individual inheritance?”

Han Dong gently caressed the Doctor’s brain, showing a satisfied expression.

“Exactly.

This is the only way to control this Biological Planet truly.

The Doctor’s future development might even surpass Morgan… Nicholas, if you’re interested in seeing the Shattered Dimensions, I can take you there directly.”

“You rascal!”

To be honest.

Nicholas found it acceptable for Han Dong to acquire this series of biological technology and the planet, considering Han Dong undertook great risks himself.

But seeing the Doctor’s condition and learning about the ‘biological inheritance,’ he indeed felt a tinge of envy.

“Let’s go! Let’s head back to Mi University and transfer some of the technology over.

My [great contribution] should arrive soon; if you have nothing else, Nicholas, could you take me to the library once more?”

“I feel like reporting you right now!”
