I just became the Pirate King, and you're telling me I also time-traveled at the same time.

Chapter 257 Two Gene Chains! Second Target: Su Xiaoli!

Sitting in the car, He Weilan would steal glances at Chu Yang from time to time.

Only when she realized the scenery outside the window was becoming increasingly remote, and it seemed they were about to leave the city, did she finally ask, "Where are we going?"

As Chu Yang drove, he said, "I'll also show you around my research institute."

He Weilan was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips, her heart beating faster.

The car drove out of the city and finally stopped in front of a very large building on the outskirts of the city.

This is one of the many research institutes under the New World Group. To outsiders, it is nothing short of a money-devouring beast that only eats and never spits out.

Although the research institute could not bring Chu Yang any real benefits, it earned him a lot of public praise, with many people saying that he was making contributions to scientific endeavors.

Upon entering the research institute, Chu Yang gave He Weilan a tour in a seemingly professional manner, until it was getting dark before finally revealing his true intentions.

"Since you're already here, why don't I have someone give you a full medical check-up?" Chu Yang looked at He Weilan with a gentle smile.

Having been secretly in love with her for over two hours, He Weilan was enveloped in happiness and agreed without a second thought.

So, after the full medical examination, Chu Yang received two large tubes of blood samples, and then he returned to the city with He Weilan, completely satisfied.

Just before leaving, He Weilan glanced back at the research institute with lingering fear. She really didn't understand what kind of physical examination required drawing two large tubes of blood.

After dropping He Weilan off at home, Chu Yang drove back to the villa area alone.

However, when she arrived at her doorstep, there was a beautiful figure waiting there.

"Qilin? Why didn't you call me when you arrived?"

Chu Yang frowned and said, "Waiting here alone so late at night, aren't you afraid of encountering danger?"

Qi Lin lowered her head and said, "Have you forgotten my profession?"

Chu Yang slapped his forehead. He had been so focused on the blood sample that he had been distracted for a moment, and his question was a completely subconscious expression of concern.

If anyone dares to cause trouble for Qilin, they'll probably be in the police station's dark room for questioning the next day.

"Let's go inside and talk."

Chu Yang opened the door and led Qi Lin into the villa.

The soft light illuminated the living room, and he then noticed that Qi Lin's eyes were slightly red and swollen, as if she had been crying.

"What happened?" Chu Yang frowned.

"It's nothing, it's just that the work pressure is a bit high..."

Qi Lin forced a smile, then asked, "Have you eaten? I'll go make you some food."

Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "I've already eaten."

"Do you have a social engagement?" Qi Lin asked again.

Chu Yang's heart skipped a beat. Given Qi Lin's personality, she wouldn't usually pry like this. And thinking back to when he went to the police station to pick up He Weilan this afternoon, he vaguely guessed what was going on.

Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "I guess so! But I ate with He Weilan, you wouldn't be... jealous, would you?"

Qi Lin's body trembled, and she turned her head away, saying, "You're not my boyfriend, don't flatter yourself!"

At this point, Chu Yang was completely certain of his guess.

No wonder, no wonder Qi Lin waited at the door so late at night but didn't call him, no wonder she just tested him to see if he had eaten...

So this is a roundabout way of trying to find out what I and He Weilan did!

Chu Yang was somewhat amused and exasperated. Just as he was about to make up an excuse to get by, a thought suddenly popped into his head.

What would happen if multiple super genes were combined into one?

Supernova-level power? Or something even stronger?

Thinking of this, Chu Yang's eyes grew brighter and brighter. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly asked, "Qilin, do you believe in aliens?"

"Extra... aliens?" Qi Lin was a little confused and couldn't keep up with Chu Yang's train of thought.

After a moment's thought, she gave a fair answer, "Perhaps! After all, the universe is boundless and full of unknowns..."

Chu Yang was clearly not satisfied with this answer and asked again, "Then do you believe in superpowers?"

Qi Lin frowned and asked, "What exactly do you mean?"

I was just sitting here feeling jealous and sulking, and you come here to discuss aliens and superpowers with me?

Where did Chu Yang, who was once so warm and knew how to make girls happy, go?

Give him back to me!

Chu Yang paused for a moment, then said, "If I told you that aliens and superpowers exist in this world, would you believe me?"

Qi Lin looked at his serious expression and fell silent, offering no reply.

Chu Yang stretched out his hand, and without warning, a jet-black ancient sword appeared in his hand.

Stroking the blade of the sword [Fengdu], and looking at Qi Lin whose eyes were gradually becoming dazed, Chu Yang continued, "The reason I've been pouring money into genetic research all these years is to uncover the secrets of superpowers!"

As he spoke, Chu Yang put away [Fengdu], then waved his hand, flames swirling and arcs of electricity crackling in his palm, creating a gentle breeze in the living room.

"I can tell you with certainty that both superpowers and aliens exist in this world..."

For the next half hour, Chu Yang explained the various civilizations in the universe and the matter of super-genes in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

Only after Qi Lin finally accepted the idea of ​​giving it a try did he stretch and say, "Ge Xiaolun and Liu Chuang both possess super genes, and they should have already been taken away by the special department."

"Besides them, you and He Weilan also have super genes, but they haven't awakened yet!"

"The main purpose of taking He Weilan to visit the research institute today is to obtain her blood sample and conduct research on her supergene."

"so……"

At this point, Chu Yang teased, "Little jealous girl, if I don't use this method, you can't expect me to just tell He Weilan all this, can you?"

Qi Lin, who had been so shocked that she had forgotten what had happened before, blushed instantly upon hearing Chu Yang's words, and gritted her teeth as she said:

"If you... if you keep talking nonsense, I'll... I'll..."

After thinking for a long time, Qi Lin couldn't come up with anything that could threaten Chu Yang.

Ultimately, they were not a couple.

Thinking of this, Qi Lin's eyes reddened again.

Chu Yang suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms, asking softly, "Qilin, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Huh?" Qi Lin's beautiful eyes widened. She had been looking forward to this moment for a long time, but she never expected it to happen under these circumstances.

She neither agreed nor refused, simply letting Chu Yang hold her, her meaning already self-evident.

Chu Yang took a deep breath and said, "Earth is about to face a crisis. After you awaken your super gene, I will use the research I have done over the years to help you become stronger."

Hearing him say this, Qilin was immediately moved. You feel a little guilty because of the misunderstanding not long ago.

"Are you hungry?" Chu Yang suddenly asked.

Qi Lin nodded, so Chu Yang got up and went into the kitchen to make a bowl of egg noodles.

After Qi Lin finished eating, Chu Yang, seeing that she showed no sign of leaving, teased, "So... you're planning to stay tonight?"

Qi Lin then realized what was happening, gave him a light spit, and ran out of the villa with a flushed face.

After she left, Chu Yang leaned back on the sofa, lost in thought.

He wants to integrate multiple super genes, which requires a super soldier as a carrier.

Through continuous extension of its supergene, until the ultimate gene is formed.

Finally, this ultimate gene will become an "evolution agent" for the true form of Yuanwu!

This is entirely beneficial to the super soldiers who act as the carriers of this technology; rather than letting it benefit others, it's better to use it on our own people.

In the following days, Chu Yang was no longer in a hurry. Rather than racing against time with the Super Soldier Squad, he preferred to wait for his "insider" to gain a foothold and then reap the benefits.

The Palace of Souls.

Chu Yang, the "Godlike" one, stepped out of the nebula and asked expectantly, "Did you succeed?"

Marvel's Chu Yang smiled and nodded, saying, "Not only did we succeed, but we also cracked two gene chains in one go!"

"Is it the power of the Divine River and the War God of Nuoxing?" Super God Chu Yang's eyes lit up.

Chu Yang shook his head and said, "No, although the power of the gods and the super genes of the God of War of the Nox Star have a very high upper limit in the world of super gods, they are really somewhat useless to us."

"So we meticulously analyzed the process, preserving the core elements of both genes while eliminating the technical aspects of Kieran!"

"This way, we have greater potential for growth and development, but we lose the inherited power from our two major genes. However, those powers are dispensable to us!"

Super God Chu Yang nodded. The prototypes of these two gene chains just met his requirements for integrating multiple super genes.

Magic Chu Yang added, "We extracted He Weilan's super gene and took its essence, adding it to the Divine River gene chain."

"This is a gene reagent. Qi Lin also has the Shenhe gene. After the fusion reagent is used, her super gene will be automatically added to the second sequence of the gene chain."

Ghost Slayer Chu Yang sighed and said, "It's a pity that He Weilan's first-generation Divine River genes are too weak. Her first-sequence ability is just unparalleled fighting skills, which are extremely useless."

"After Qilin's fusion reagent is used, hopefully her genes will produce a sufficiently powerful second sequence!"

Super God Chu Yang smiled and said, "It's only a chicken rib for us. For any super soldier, unparalleled fighting skills are like adding wings to a tiger."

After saying that, he waved the reagent and said, "I'll go test it out first!"

After watching him walk into the nebula and leave, the others got back to work.

In the villa's living room, Chu Yang played with the gene reagent, lost in thought.

The principle of the gene chain is actually easy to understand: it retains the core technologies of Galactic Power and Nostar War God, endows them with inclusiveness and growth potential, and forms the "base" of the gene chain.

Adding other compatible supergenes will add "sequences" to the "base", and each sequence will possess the core capabilities of its supergene.

As Demon Slayer Chu Yang said, He Weilan's super gene was too weak, so she was only given the ability of a "fighting master".

In addition, the continuous extension of the gene chain will bring an even greater benefit...

A comprehensive improvement in physical fitness, mental fortitude, and control over one's own abilities!

Moreover, the improvement is enormous!

Take Qi Lin for example. Even though she awakened a super gene, her physical body still cannot compare to that of a god.

However, after fusing the gene reagent and reaching the second sequence, the physical strength will be directly comparable to that of a first-generation god!

However, the Shenhe gene chain, which currently only has two sequences, has negligible effect on Chu Yang.

His goal is the ultimate gene, extending the gene chain to its very end!

However, having two gene chains at present, it is obviously not enough to have only Qilin as a "carrier"; another target needs to be found.

Chu Yang fell into thought, filtering through one target after another.

The criteria are simple: either you are strong enough, or you haven't joined the Super Soldier Corps yet.

There weren't many people who met the criteria. He first thought of Monkey King, then Rui Mengmeng, and then Su Xiaoli.

After much deliberation, Chu Yang finally set his sights on Su Xiaoli.

Although Monkey King is powerful enough, choosing him would involve too many complications, and his own genes have almost reached their limit, limiting his potential for growth.

Rui Mengmeng's Nuoxing Sharp Knife gene is compatible with the Nuoxing gene chain, but her gene is quite special. When this god-making project was carried out, the physical aspect was directly pushed to the maximum value, but other aspects were not considered at all.

This results in Ruimengmeng having limited potential for development.

Su Xiaoli is different. To be precise, she is not a super soldier, but a "fairy" with special genes.

This gene has no upper limit and is not particularly special, but it has unlimited plasticity!

Without hesitation, Chu Yang used his Phantom Shift ability to arrive at the Northern Star.

Before embarking on his plan to "hitch a ride," he collected a lot of information on super soldiers, including Su Xiaoli.

Having located Su Xiaoli's apartment, Chu Yang knocked on the door.

"The takeout is at the door!" A pleasant female voice came from inside.

Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, not expecting to be mistaken for a food deliveryman. He said with a mix of amusement and exasperation, "Su Xiaoli, I'm Chu Yang. We've met before."

He did meet Su Xiaoli once back then, but Su Xiaoli was still young at the time, and Chu Yang gave her a sum of money under the guise of a charitable donation.

Su Xiaoli's mother was also a woman of the "femme fatale" type due to genetic influence, but it was precisely because of this that her life was full of hardships, and she ended up raising Su Xiaoli alone, and her family was not well-off.

A series of hurried footsteps came from inside the door, and then the door was opened with a bang, revealing a pretty face that was both innocent and endlessly charming.

"Mr. Chu... Mr. Chu? It really is you!"

Su Xiaoli hesitated at first, after all, it had been many years since they last met, but Chu Yang had left a deep impression on her, and she quickly recognized him. She screamed excitedly, pushed open the door, and rushed over.

With the warm, soft body in his arms, Chu Yang was momentarily lost in thought, while also marveling at how, although the "fairy's" genetic combat power wasn't strong, it was still quite formidable in certain aspects.

Patting Su Xiaoli on the back, Chu Yang smiled and said, "Aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?"

Su Xiaoli then realized what was happening, quickly loosened her arms, stepped aside, and said somewhat awkwardly, "President Chu... please come in..."

Chu Yang didn't stand on ceremony and stepped into the room, but then froze in shock. (End of Chapter)
