Chapter 787
Stephanie stared at the man in the lab capsule for a good while before turning to look at Steven beside her. "I still prefer how you looked before this."
Even though Andy was also good-looking, there was something about him that didn't sit right.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Steven grew fearful. "Didn't you say you loved my unique soul more, honey?"
Stephanie contemplated seriously before saying, "Sorry, I suddenly think that outer appearance is equally important as well."
After that, she started walking toward the lab capsule in the middle.
Steven hurriedly grabbed her. "What are you doing, Stephie?"
"I'll kill him and reincarnate you into his body. Things will be perfect then." Stephanie narrowed her eyes, her gaze full of killing intent.
She truly meant to do what she said.
Taken aback, he hurriedly stopped her. "That's not right, Stephie."
"Even though he's not your clone subject, he's your twin. It'd be fine to kill him." Stephanie pushed Steven away and walked up to open the door to the lab capsule.
Inside the lab capsule, the man, whose face was identical to Steven's, was stunned. "Aren't you here to rescue me?" "You're not anyone to me, so why should I rescue you?" After unlocking the door, Stephanie took out her knife to kill him.
Gone was that man's earlier enigmatic demeanor as he scurried to hide under the bed in fear. High intelligence did not matter to her she only wanted to kill.
"Wait, we're biological brothers," he said while pointing at Steven. He managed to identify that it was Steven's soul instead of Andy's in Andy's body. "We're identical twins."
"That's why it's perfect to kill you," Stephanie said as she pulled him by the collar. Her knife was about to pierce his neck when she stopped to think for a bit.
"I'm planning to let Steven reincarnate into your body, so I can't leave any fatal injuries on this body. Lucky you. I'll sedate you instead."
"Wait!" The man took a deep breath. "How are you sure that his soul can win against mine? I'm not a clone subject. I have an independent soul, and this is my body. You should know that it's hard to take it away from me." He was aware of the disadvantages of soul swapping as well as the secret to soul reincarnation.
Stephanie frowned and looked at him warily. "You can just die, then. I don't want to see your face."
The man looked at Steven pleadingly.
Just as Stephanie's knife was about to swing down, Steven hugged her from the back and grabbed her hand. "Let him live, Stephie."
"He's dangerous," she softly said.
The man said, "As we're biological brothers, Andy handed the data to me after getting Sarah reincarnated. He demanded me to uncover the secrets of reincarnation, but I've never been able to have a breakthrough."
He shrugged. "I just figured that you'd come after me sooner or later. I really don't mean any harm!" "What's your name?" Steven asked.
"I don't have one. I'm Experimental Subject No. 9." No. 9 shrugged. He truly was similar to Steven, only with a livelier personality.
Stephanie wasn't sure if he was just putting on an act.
"Let's just kill him," she said, not wanting to leave any potential risks.
"I know Genome Society even better than Andy." No. 9's gaze turned intense. He wanted to take control of Genome Society.
"All the more for you to die, then." Stephanie still wanted him dead.
No. 9 said, "Do you think that the bigshot behind Genome Society won't just rebuild a new base in the Othard region with Andy dead? Their reach is beyond wide. They'll continue to come back no matter how many times you stop them.
"Besides, this ship is the only contact between Andy and Genome Society's main hub. As soon as this cargo ship explodes or stops sending any information back for a while, Genome Society will just set up a new base in the Othard region."
