The Favored Son of Heaven-Chapter 568 - : Survival of the Fittest

Chapter 568: Survival of the Fittest

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

This was an extremely strange and extremely crazy process.

The new Queen Bee ate the old Queen Bee, then gave birth to another new Queen Bee who once again ate the old Queen Bee. Her subordinates occasionally brought her some strange plants, and she would just swallow it into her belly.

Qin Fen couldn’t find words to describe the process, and he couldn’t help but feel allergically disgusted.

Evolution, she could evolve again when she ate the old Queen Bee! Qin Fen didn’t know why there was such a bizarre way, but he knew that this was definitely not a normal way, and she might even suffer from sequelae.

This was an evolutionary method that completely defied common sense! It was just as if one was desperately looking for advancement in the cultivation of martial dao.

Multiple sieges by Song Wendong had left a deep sense of crisis in the Queen Bee. This sense of crisis forced her to evolve, even if her evolutionary methods violated the natural laws and may bring terrible consequences. She didn’t have any intention of stopping it.

The endless cycle of the new Queen Bee consuming the old Queen Bee continued as the Queen Bee evolved repeatedly. Qin Fen couldn’t understand why she could evolve just by devouring herself. However, she was indeed evolving with progress observable to the naked eye.

The Queen Bee finally stopped devouring herself. She once again imitated humans and began to meditate. She had an advantage that humans didn’t have, which was a much faster time axis in her dimension than the human world.

Scientists kept researching ways to adjust the time axis. However, before they could find out a way to adjust the time axis and a way to destroy this dimension, they accidentally opened up another tunnel connected to the Pandora dimension due to misoperations and experiments. The worst happened when the tunnel couldn’t be closed after opening it. They couldn’t even stop the startup program either. It automatically opened up new links to the future.

This new tunnel was connected to Mars! The meditating Queen Bee stopped her cultivation the moment the tunnel was connected successfully.

She looked up and looked at the space tunnel connecting Mars with the two big eyes on her forehead. They did not resemble the eyes of a human, but rather, a bee’s.

Song Wendong saw this situation and immediately contacted the superior officer who was temporarily staying on Mars and had just started to develop Mars. The person he contacted was the future Vermillion Bird.

The Queen Bee in the projection screamed at the sky, shattering all the plants around her with the scream. A huge airflow was seen in the projection, but Qin Fen could still feel the mighty power through the projection! Her power was even stronger than White Tiger, who broke into the Earth, on that day!

She was at the master class! This Queen Bee has the powerful strength equivalent to a master, or to the Military Kill Ripper!

For the first time, the Queen Bee, who had been crouching for many days, rushed out from Pandora. She ran straight into Mars through the space connection.

Qin Fen’s heart missed a beat, and he wondered: How could the Vermillion Bird survive the strength of the Queen Bee?

Soon, Qin Fen found out why.

The Queen Bee, who rushed into Mars, did not have any advantages in front of the Vermillion Bird. Instead, she was at a disadvantage. Just like Song Wendong who broke into the new dimension back then, the Queen Bee suffered the same problem when she came to the human dimension. Her combat power was forcibly suppressed. Although she couldn’t be as powerful as she was back in the Pandora dimension, she was still a formidable opponent and shouldn’t be underestimated.

The battle did not last long. The Queen Bee realized that something was off and she couldn’t beat Vermillion Bird, and that she might be surrounded by the masters. She immediately chose to retreat to her own dimension.

Qin Fen looked at the situation on the screen and let out a weak laugh. He didn’t expect that the very rule that protected the Queen Bee could in turn save the humans this time. At that time, even if Song Wendong’s team were to attack the Queen Bee all at once, they might not have been able to defeat her, not to mention the fact that they were scattered in different places at that time, and the Queen Bee might’ve attacked each of them separately.

Not long after the war, the Queen Bee began to lay eggs and carry out new biological reproduction. Occasionally, she would suddenly enter the human world, devour a few humans and then quickly escape to continue with her breeding. However, she never continued to cultivate martial dao nor produced a new Queen Bee.

It was also not long after the war when the scientists had finally got a hold of the time axis data. Although it was impossible to adjust the time in the new dimension to be slower than the human world, it could be modified to the same pace as the normal human world.

However, as the human world had the same time flow as the new dimension now, the issue of energy resources returned to haunt humans. Scientists who researched dimensions once again opened up another new dimension!

The newly opened dimension was different from Pandora. With the experience of opening a dimension last time, plus the accumulation of research results over the years, they opened yet another new dimension that was much smaller than the size of the moon.

This was just a farm and nothing else. However, due to a lower rate of production, the pace of development in the human world slowed down.

After everything was done, Song Wendong created a system of divine beast martial artists! In the beginning, there weren’t any other divine beast martial artists on Earth except for Song Wendong. White Tiger and the others had created a force on other planets, and they were constantly stimulating the progression of other martial artists through warfare, so they could select the powerful ones among them.

This was not for defense, but to prepare for a counterattack! Through the projection, Qin Fen discovered the problem that Song Wendong and the others had also discovered, which was no matter how the evolved the creatures produced by the Queen Bee were, the Queen Bee herself had completely stopped evolving!

The Queen Bee seemed anxious about this, and she seemed to be doing some weird preparation.

“She wanted to produce an Emperor…” The old voice interrupted Qin Fen’s speculation, “Strictly speaking, this Queen Bee was only the queen of her society. She was only temporarily at the top of society. Perhaps, if she had been evolving normally, she could have reached the apex someday. However, she chose the rapid evolution which had hurt herself, the result being that she could not evolve to the most perfect stage. Not only was it her body that couldn’t evolve any further, she had also hit the limit on the cultivation of human martial arts. She couldn’t have a breakthrough anymore.”

Qin Fen nodded understandingly. It was nothing else but terrible news for the Queen Bee to meet such an end. Be it Song Wendong or other martial artists, they were still growing. Perhaps they were not growing fast enough, but they definitely wouldn’t stop.

Under such a deadly threat, how could the Queen Bee not be anxious?

Similarly, when humans came to know that the Queen Bee was planning and trying to produce a stronger Emperor, what would they think about it? A Queen Bee was already this powerful, so what about an Emperor?

“The Queen Bee is a strange evolutionary creature. If she was to calmly evolve following a normal pace, she would’ve been able to evolve to a point where she could eventually adapt to other dimensions’ rules according to our speculation.”

Adapt…? Qin Fen’s eyes twitched. If she could actually achieve that, it was definitely not good news! The Queen Bee can come across the border…by that time…

Now that the Queen Bee couldn’t do it, the Emperor who was born should obviously have such ability! However, evolution was not as simple as something like treating someone for a meal, especially when she was trying to give birth to a top-level Emperor.

“At this time, biochemical beasts appeared.” The old voice was a bit gratified, “Biochemical beasts were invented due to a breakthrough in the foundation study of Pandora’s creatures. Since then they have divided out a small group…”

Qin Fen wasn’t too surprised by this. Lin Liqiang had shown his admiration at many instances previously, plus, with all the information he saw today, it wasn’t surprising to have such a result.

“However, the weight of death was still pressing against those who knew about the situation.” The old voice sounded helpless and sighed, “They were under the stress that they couldn’t afford to cause public fear, and such pressure had gradually driven the researchers crazy and caused them to go an extreme direction.”

“At last…”

From the projection, a group of biologists began to experiment and combine living humans with the creatures from the other dimension. They wanted to create new methods instead of using dead bodies to conduct scientific experiments.

The extreme method had caused dissatisfaction among another group of scientists, sparking the first argument between both sides. The argument didn’t conclude who was on the right or wrong, rather, it caused a contradiction among the scientists who were originally working together in harmony.

Contradictions are not formed overnight, and the contradictions only got worse as time went by. There were even cases where children were used as experimental subjects.

Chen Feiyu was shocked by what he saw on the projected images, his eyes burning with rage and hatred! That was the method involving him and his companions as experimental subjects. One after another, martial artists who cultivated true energy couldn’t stand the effect on their bodies and went too far, which resulted in them being chucked away like garbage.

After the contradictions accumulated, they gradually got to the point of an irreconcilable relationship.

At this time, the Qilin, Song Wendong, who had a high and utmost supreme status on Earth, finally appeared.

Song Wendong did not kill the scientists who did extreme experiments. This was not beyond the expectation of Qin Fen. The atrocities done by these scientists who had gone too far couldn’t be fairly judged with absolute morals of right and wrong. The only thing that could be said was that they were being too extreme with their methods.

After suppressing the contradiction once again, a real madman appeared amongst the near-crazy scientists. He suddenly announced that judging from the circumstances back then, the so-called divine beast martial artists couldn’t save the society that was seemingly prosperous but was actually full of danger.

Only a real master, a conqueror could save them! They would be able to destroy the dimension called Pandora only if they followed the law of the jungle which emphasized the survival of the fittest.

A group of enthusiastic scientists joined this man called Zhang Hao. They were separated from the organization called the Founding Society, which was formed by many scientists at that time. They formed their own system independently, but they still used the same name and advertised themselves as the authentic Founding Society.

The new Founding Society, which had left the original organization, stuck firmly to the survival of the fittest law in their actions. However, they didn’t insist on exclusiveness in their research results, and would always share them instantly with the original Founding Society headquarters.

Since then, there had been two Founding Societies in the world!
