Gene Unlocking: I Evolve Every Day

Chapter 858: Chapter 569: Zombie Mutation or Resurrection?

Sunlight shines on the golden glass walls, glistening brilliantly.

In front of the square, the ground is paved with white stones, surrounded by lush green trees and blooming flowers.

Inside the jade stone railing, the walls are etched with murals of portraits honoring past achievements of the Galaxy Alliance, as if they are telling the glorious and tearful tales of the past.

In the depths of these beautiful yet mournful scenes, a handsome young man stands tall.

As he stands there, the sunlight seems to lose its brilliance, and the flowers appear to fade in vibrancy.

Didan, Dapu, Saint Garo, and De Kuerde gaze at him as if witnessing the dazzling convergence of billions of stars.

Countless stellar funeral workers in white uniforms feel a sense of reverence, wanting to bow in worship to the man.

Even Zhang Qian, Zhu Ming, and over four thousand surviving super soldiers look at the man, their souls inexplicably trembling gently.

It seems as though every gesture and action of the young man can touch the soul.

That profound sense of reverence from the heart and the soul makes everyone who sees the young man instinctively lower their heads.

Everyone knows who this young man is; he is none other than the universe’s only True God, Lu Li.

It is not as if those present have not seen Lu Li before; some have even seen him more than once. However, in the past, their reverence mainly stemmed from his strength and accomplishments, like the destruction of the Small Magellanic Cloud, warranting their awe. But today, when they see Lu Li, the reverence is from the soul, as if standing before them is not a person, but the heavens and the cosmos, an expansive nature that nurtures all life.

Life and death seem to be within the other’s whim.

Yes, everyone feels this sense of life and death at his discretion.

Perhaps precisely because of this soul-shaking presence, tens of thousands of funeral workers and thousands of super soldiers, along with luminaries like Didan and Dapu, remain silent, simply bowing their heads in reverence.

Lu Li stands with his hands behind him, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.

After a moment, he slowly opens his mouth and says, “Bring them all out.”

…

The stellar funeral is being broadcast across billions of species in the Milky Way Galaxy.

The instant Lu Li appears, the image is projected to billions of planets.

“Hmm?”

“Land God?”

“Why has he suddenly appeared?”

All the wise beings immersed in sorrow momentarily pause.

Just a few days ago, when iron-based life was ravaging the entire Milky Way Galaxy, everyone hoped for Lu Li to appear and save the world. Unfortunately, he never showed up, and instead, they awaited the super soldier legion, which ultimately eradicated the iron-based life at the expense of thousands of soldiers.

In truth, everyone knows the super soldier legion represents him and knows their ability to eliminate the iron-based life was solely due to the treasures bestowed by Lu Li, the Infinite Glove. Yet, after seeing so many super soldiers die brutally, a small fraction of people’s hearts still harbored some resentment — lamenting that Lu Li could have intervened personally to prevent so many deaths.

“Alas, appearing now is too late.”

“Exactly, did not appear when iron-based life was rampant.”

“People have died; what’s the point of appearing now?”

“Land God, I am not resentful, but you have time to send them off; couldn’t you have shown a little kindness to their surviving family members while they were alive?”

This small fraction of people sigh.

And this small fraction were the ones previously criticized on the internet until they were covered in cuts and bruises.

The vast majority are rational, knowing Lu Li has no obligation to save everyone from calamity, yet he still sent the super soldier legion, exceedingly benevolent to the Milky Way Galaxy.

Seeing that small fraction start “acting up” again, each of them begins to verbally bombard them.

“None of your damn business!”

“Land God will appear whenever he chooses!”

“A lot of damn talk, does whatever Land God chooses require your speculation?”

“Behaving like second-rate minions, Land God shouldn’t have dispatched the super soldier legion to save you idiots.”

Criticism battles are rampant on River Entertainment Network, anyway, that small fraction are always cursed whenever they show their faces, ultimately opting for silence.

Once no one was being sarcastic, genuine netizens began a discussion.

“Hey, why do you think Land God is appearing now?”

“For the funeral service, what else?”

“Exactly, besides the funeral, what else?”

“I doubt Land God is merely present for the funeral now. Think about it — the treasure he bestowed upon the super soldier legion eliminated the iron-based life; he definitely has the ability to wipe it out effortlessly. Yet, he did not appear while thousands of super soldiers died, likely preoccupied with other matters, so I think his appearance now compensates for not showing earlier, leading to those soldiers’ deaths.”

“The brother above analyzes wisely; I think so too, although I’m very curious about how Land God plans to compensate?”

“Uh, that I do not know.”

A group of people engage in idle chat, sensing that Lu Li’s appearance now is more than just for the funeral, but aside from the funeral, they seem unable to fathom what else Lu Li might be here for.

Suddenly, a netizen from Earth raises a question: “Do you think the ‘Lord of Ten Thousand Stars’ appears to resurrect those fallen super soldiers?”

Once this question is posed, the entire River Entertainment Network falls silent for a moment.

Soon after, everyone bursts into laughter.
