Revenge After Death

Chapter 717





I said, 'Genome Society is like wildflowers in the spring-they'll keep coming back no matter how much you destroy them. We might be able to destroy a laboratory or clear out a city, but we can't destroy all of them in all cities around the nation.

"Even if we manage to clear out the entire nation, there are still countless more hellholes in other countries throughout the entire Othard. Like spiders on a web, they're devouring every one of us who's living within it."

This was a world of the fittest-those at the top of the food chain would hold power over everyone else. They were just like lions on the savannah, cruelly toying with their prey.

Humans, however, followed a different set of rules. We might sit at the top of the food chain, but we also divided ourselves into hierarchies within our own species.

Money, power, health, youth, and sexual desires-we were merely hollow beings controlled by these things.

"Even so, we have to keep pushing forward. Should we give up on chasing the light just because the darkness is long? Are we supposed to just sink into despair instead? The world will turn into a dark place if everyone does that," Eason argued passionately.

Unlike Zion, he wasn't someone who placed morality above everything else, but he was inherently kind.

He had always given his best to do something valuable and meaningful. If he couldn't completely clear off the laboratories, he would tackle them one by one.

"My colleagues can take over what I can't finish. There would always be successors pushing forward for the sake of family, friends, and love," Eason said.

Humanity's last hope was that clusive thing called "love". Whether we could win the final battle would depend on which side the scales of belief ultimately tipped.

"Humanity has lasted this long due to generations of continuity and the ability to adapt through evolution and survival of the fittest. But greater class divisions will exist in the future if someone were to disrupt this balance for personal gain.

"Children of the wealthy are born standing on the peak of the mountain, while children of the poor can only struggle at the base. It'll eventually lead to a downfall if this situation persists."

But those seeking to profit wouldn't think about long-term consequences. They were only selfishly ensuring that they and their descendants could enjoy these benefits.

They were depleting the future of humanity's potential in exchange for their own greed.

I looked at the roads down the crematory and saw the crying families of the deceased as they left.

The quest for immortality had spanned over 5,000 years or perhaps even longer.

"The advancement of medical technology has equipped us to better combat various diseases. The average lifespan has increased significantly now, yet they remain unsatisfied." Eason sighed and turned to leave.

I said, "As life extends, emotions tend to fade. People became indifferent after witnessing countless lives and the nature of humanity. Immortality and longevity themselves pose a great challenge to human nature.

"Everything is a double-edged sword-including the advancement of medical technology." I looked at him, reminding him that both he and Zion were currently treading dangerous waters.

The mastermind of Genome Society would stop at nothing for revenge in order to deter those who wanted to crush them.

Putting oneself in danger with no way out wasn't something everyone could do.

"Something happened, Officer Grant! Our men found something unusual in the underground area of Stellar Pharmaceuticals. The site exploded when they were down for investigation. All eight of our men.... didn't make it.'

Eason stopped in his tracks, his hands trembling as he clutched onto his phone.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Recently, Genome Society's schemes were uncovered nationwide due to Steven's plan and the exposure of Daisy's laboratory. This led to a large-scale cleanup and arrest

With their influence and connections severed, they were starting to fight back. They were gearing up for a direct confrontation now that their veil of secrecy was torn.

Time was running out, and I had to hurry. Otherwise, there would only be more casualties from people like Eason and Zion.

I smiled and said, "Eason, you're right. There are countless people like you who will rise up even if you were to die. It doesn't matter even if Genome Society is like indestructible wildflowers.

"We still have countless peers who are constantly resisting and maintaining the balance of nature's order. So perhaps..."

Perhaps, I could find a shred of hope in Eason and the others.
