Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food Chapter 1574 - 907: Jin Shirong’s Secret Space

"Mr. Liang, there seems to be an Alternate Space here, we can’t open it."

Arc Light Island.

Liang Yuan had already arranged everything and experienced the gene recombination cultivation chamber of Sprout.

These past few days, he had been cultivating in the chamber, and the gene recombination progress within him had finally reached 90%.

Now, he could already feel the invisible shackles, the genetic chains binding his body.

It seemed that once he achieved 100% gene recombination, this chain would be broken.

As for what it would be like after breaking it, he didn’t know.

Just then, someone reported from below, saying that an Alternate Space was found on Arc Light Island, likely left by Jin Shirong.

That’s why Liang Yuan appeared here.

Li Ting was surprised and said, "How could Jin Shirong have left an Alternate Space here? Could there be some secret here?"

Liang Yuan didn’t answer her, he just used Spiritual Power to sense the surroundings.

Within him, the Space Gene activated, making Liang Yuan extraordinarily sensitive to space elements.

Sure enough, under the perception of Spiritual Power, there indeed existed an unknown space ahead.

Liang Yuan thought deeply and said, "I’ll go in and take a look, you stay here."

"Could there be danger? Should I let my Beast Taming go in first?" Wang Ling’Er said nearby.

Liang Yuan shook his head and said, "No worries, if Jin Shirong could come and go without trouble, it shouldn’t be dangerous for me."

As he spoke, he reached forward and made a cut in the space.

Instantly, the space ahead twisted slightly.

Liang Yuan’s figure flickered and he stepped into the space crack.

His figure disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Liang Yuan looked around, he was already in a strange space.

This was a large blank space devoid of land and houses, only row after row of large shelves and a big machine in operation.

Ahead was a strange apparatus resembling an operating table, with traces of blood still visible.

However, what caught Liang Yuan’s attention was not the machine or the operating table, but the shelves!

On the shelves, there were neatly arranged rows of glass jars.

Inside the glass jars were specimens of brain tissues, one after another!

Anyone who saw this would have shivers down their spine.

These brain specimens varied in size, some human, others from different creatures.

Some even had skulls of Mutant Beasts.

Liang Yuan immediately recognized that the skulls had remnants of Runes on them!

These weren’t ordinary skulls, they were Rune Bones!

Liang Yuan quickly approached to inspect the glass jars, noticing tags on them.

He casually picked one, and saw some characters on the tag.

Name: Lin Yu

Superpower: Water Manipulation

Main Attribute: Water

Secondary Attribute: Spirit

The four lines on the tag were concise and clear.

Liang Yuan was puzzled, unsure why Jin Shirong would extract someone’s brain and leave such specimens.

Then he looked at other glass jars.

Mutant Beast: [Ice Arrow Fish]

Superpower: Ice Arrow

Main Attribute: Ice

Secondary Attribute: Spirit

This was a skull of a Mutant Beast, sealed within a glass jar.

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and casually smashed the glass jar, extracting the skull inside.

This was evidently a Mutant Fish skull, featuring many characteristics of a fish’s skull.

Liang Yuan saw Runes indeed present on the skull.

He examined it, silently operating his Superpower, and tried the Rune’s operation method.

Suddenly, he pointed with one hand.

Woosh!

From his palm, an Ice Arrow shot forth violently!

Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow: "It really matches the tag’s content."

"Jin Shirong collected these, could he be trying to build a Superpower Rune Library?"

It’s known that Yangshan also has a similar Rune Library, which gathers many Superpower Runes.

Since the Slaughterhouse kills many Mutant Beasts daily, they occasionally obtain such Rune Bones, naturally handed over to Yangshan’s Rune Library.

And Shelter residents wanting to learn Superpowers of the same attribute can go to the Rune Library to learn.

Of course, it’s not free, requiring Points for borrowing.

Another group, Spirit Ability Users, can also come to learn and try making Talisman Stones.

There’s no doubt, the Rune Library is a beneficial project for Yangshan residents.

However, Liang Yuan was puzzled, how could Jin Shirong create such a Rune collection place?

"Wait, why would he do such a good thing? Moreover, it’s not only Runes collected here, but also brains."

"What purpose does collecting brains serve?"

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and casually smashed a glass jar containing a brain.

Inside the glass jar, the brain tissue floated, Liang Yuan noticed the Skull still intact.

The Skull and brain were integrated, closely connected together.

The Runes on it grew on the Skull like meridians.

Liang Yuan glanced and gradually formed a hypothesis in his mind.

"Could it be that Jin Shirong is trying to replicate others’ Superpowers by taking their Rune Bones? Then learning and imitating them?"

Liang Yuan turned to look at the operating table.

In his mind, he envisioned Jin Shirong wielding a scalpel, performing craniotomy surgery.

His Replication Superpower seemed not simply to be able to copy what he sees an opponent do at once.

It requires opening the opponent’s skull and then studying the brain tissue structure. Only by analyzing the runes that appear can one learn to replicate the opponent’s ability.

"So, this is the true capability of his Replication Superpower?"

"This place is where he studies and replicates superpowers!"

Liang Yuan took a deep breath, finally understanding.

His gaze darkened as he observed the glass jars here, numbering in the thousands.

Excluding a portion of Mutant Beasts, there are also five to six hundred human brains here!

This means Jin Shirong has killed at least five to six hundred Superpower Users!

Some of the superpower users might not have had any quarrel with him, but just because he coveted their abilities, he brought them back to dissect and replicate their skills.

Damn it, this isn’t just a replication superpower, it’s downright demonic and perverted.

Liang Yuan subdued the anger festering within him and walked around the glass jars.

Suddenly, as he reached a certain spot, he froze, his expression slightly changing.

He saw that on one of the glass jars, a person’s information was clearly engraved.

This person, he knew!

Name: Wu Yaobang

Superpower: Clone

Main Attribute: Constitution

Sub Attribute: Spirit

Liang Yuan’s pupils slightly contracted upon seeing this information label!

"So it’s actually Wu Yaobang’s brain? Jin Shirong’s clone superpower indeed came from him."

Liang Yuan immediately picked up the glass jar, removing the brain inside.

He observed the surface of the brain’s skull, which was empty, with no runes visible.

The brain structure was complete and clear.

Liang Yuan furrowed his brows again: "This is wrong, it’s not right."

"There’s no Rune Bone, only the brain. How did Jin Shirong replicate Wu Yaobang’s superpower?"

"Could it be that he doesn’t need the Rune Bone, he just needs the person’s brain to replicate their ability?"

Liang Yuan suddenly had this thought.

He carefully examined the brain tissue, seeing nothing.

How did Jin Shirong achieve it?

Liang Yuan then shook his head, understanding deep down.

"This is Jin Shirong’s superpower."

"So he might indeed only need to observe the target’s brain structure to replicate their ability, not necessarily needing the Rune Bone."

"But why do other brain tissues retain the Rune Bone?"

"Could it be for verification purposes?"

Liang Yuan suddenly considered this possibility, much like a newly purchased exercise book.

Once you finish the exercises, there are answers at the back for reference, making it clearer and more apparent.

But only having the brain without the Rune Bone is akin to having exercises without answers.

Yet, by doing enough exercises, one could still find the answers.

"Speaking of which, Wu Yaobang still hasn’t been found; did he hear about my defeat of the Sprout and run away?"

Liang Yuan’s thoughts wandered, suddenly considering Wu Yaobang’s whereabouts.

He hasn’t been found yet.

This person has sought Yangshan trouble multiple times; if he can be dealt with, Liang Yuan won’t hesitate.

He then checked all the jars again, and sure enough, not all jars contained brains with skull bones.

A significant portion consists solely of brains without Rune Skulls.

This further confirmed Liang Yuan’s conjecture.

Aside from that, there was nothing else here.

It seemed this small space was specifically for learning to replicate superpowers.

Liang Yuan came out again, Wang Ling’Er, Li Ting, and others hurriedly inquired about the situation.

Liang Yuan did not hide anything, directly opened a portal, saying, "Inside might be Jin Shirong’s secret room for studying superpower users; you can go in and see for yourselves."

Li Ting was curious: "Studying superpower users? He’s not a researcher, what’s he studying?"

With a hint of suspicion, Li Ting and some Sprout superpower users hurried inside to check.

Wang Ling’Er followed them in.

After a while, exclamations came from inside.

Someone began shouting.

"Wu Xing! This, this is Wu Xing’s brain?"

"Damn it, I said Wu Xing was fine, how could he disappear? Crap, turns out he was captured by Jin Shirong!"

"Wu Xing’s superpower is Super Healing; Jin Shirong later acquired this ability, and shortly before mastering it, Wu Xing vanished."

"Thus, this place is where Jin Shirong killed Wu Xing, and his Replication Superpower requires opening skulls for research?"

"Look quickly, here’s Gu Xue’s information!"

"Gu Xue refused Jin Shirong and fled overnight; I thought she had escaped, but..."

"Ah, Wu Yaobang! This is Wu Yaobang’s brain!"

Sprout members were exclaiming non-stop inside, seemingly finding many missing Sprout individuals.

Wang Ling’Er soon retreated; she didn’t recognize the owners of the brains in the jars, thus remaining relatively calm.

"Mr. Liang, this is where Jin Shirong killed people?"

"Yes."

"Why did he collect these people’s brains?"

Liang Yuan replied, "It might be related to his Replication Superpower; the specific reason is likely beyond investigation now."

"If that’s the case, this so-called Replication Superpower is too cruel," Wang Ling’Er couldn’t help but say.

Liang Yuan sighed, saying, "This is just what he has collected; you can imagine that when Jin Shirong was still weak, he likely realized his superpower’s peculiarity, and at that time he had no way to collect brains."

"Most likely, after killing, he discarded them, meaning he killed far more than just these."

Wang Ling’Er felt even more strongly that Jin Shirong deserved to die.

Just as they were discussing, Gu Feng hurriedly approached from outside.

"Mr. Liang, urgent news from Yangshan!"
