Dawn Spider

Chapter 198 Hospital? Underground Black Market!

Jin has collected a total of 297 gene agent storage boxes. Assuming each box contains 10 Primogems worth of God-given Force food, he can store nearly 3000 million Primogems worth of God-given Force food.

The gene storage box is large enough to support the opening of a shop on the twin islands of Sal.

So, the main task next is to accumulate capital and fill these storage boxes.

...

This harvest includes extremely high-grade lightning-type divine-given food worth 200 million primal stones; it's very precious.

Without a doubt, Jin would keep some for himself and use it slowly.

...

...

The news that Jin's excavation team had successfully found the ruins and unearthed super-high-grade divinely bestowed food spread like wildfire across Ivory Island.

In no time, Jin's fame spread far and wide, and wherever the merchant went, he was surrounded by a swarm of insects.

Zerg warriors have no shame; if they did, it would be thicker than their carapace. Those who have awakened earth and water abilities are one thing, but many Zerg warriors without the corresponding abilities also chase after them asking if they can tag along. They'll just give them some if they find any divinely bestowed food...

These guys are quite the smooth talkers, calling him "Boss Jin" repeatedly, and they're very enthusiastic. Some of the ones with particularly thick shells even call him "Spider King Jin."

Jin now understood how the Curcuma worm king floated.

These insects are naturally Machiavellian.

...

Late April

Jin hurried along the planned trade route, rushing from the Dragon Horn Mountain of the Six-Section Shovel Armor Tribe to the Partridge Sacred Mountain of the Great Poison Armor Tribe.

The strong winds that were guiding the way suddenly accelerated, and the plane climbed straight up into the sky.

"..."

Jin sensed something was wrong, stopped abruptly, and used his mental energy to scan the dense forest ahead.

The king of the curcuma insects emerged.

"gold……"

The King of the Eshu Insects spoke in a deep voice, saying directly, "We've unearthed a treasure trove of an alien civilization hidden deep underground. We've discovered many strange devices, and after studying them for half a month, we still don't quite understand what they're for..."

"equipment?"

Jin asked, "Have you tried it? Does it light up when you inject the Force?"

"can!"

The King of the Curculigo Insects said, "Filling in the original crystal will activate it; it will display a large white screen with black and green characters."

"For processing Force food?"

"No. The equipment is much larger in scale. The largest is over a hundred meters long, like a centipede."

"A centipede? Where did you find it? Weren't you digging at site number 1002?"

"Of course! It was unearthed from ruin number 1002."

"..."

Jin was taken aback and suspicious.

My own Force Food Processor, being specifically designed for use with God-given Force plants, is made entirely of immortal-grade primal energy materials, making it virtually indestructible. So, what other equipment could have survived intact until now?
The largest set is over 100 meters long?
Could it be that they unearthed a high-standard energy equipment manufacturing plant? That's even more impossible.

The home planet would never allow the construction of such factories. Typically, these factories are built on mining planets or in outer space, not in cities inhabited by ordinary people. They certainly wouldn't be built in the ancient city of Dizhou.

This is a triple negation.

Hidden underground? Is it a clandestine factory? Who is it? How dare they!

Another question: Weren't you digging up hospitals? How come you've dug up factories too? This is just too outrageous!

Jin's mind raced, filled with doubt, and he vigorously waved his forelegs.

The strong winds, observed from high altitude, descended vertically and hovered at a height of thirty meters.

"I have met the King of the Curcuma Insects!"

"What's the matter, King of the Curcuma Insects?"

This big dragonfly was just a clumsy giant, and the King of Curcuma Insects was too lazy to say anything more to it.

Jin said, "Dafeng, you'll handle the cooperation deal with the Lord of Suoguo Mountain on your own. Tell him I have some business to attend to with the King of Eshu Insects, and he'll understand."

"Understand……"

Da Feng asked curiously, "Boss Jin, what's the matter, King of Curcuma? Did you dig up any treasure?"

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't be asking."

The king of the turmeric insects rebuked him.

"..."

A gentle breeze flapped its wings, and it rose up, hovering three hundred meters in the air. It asked, "Jin, shall I go?"

"Go! Go!"

Jin called out, "King of the Eshu Insects, let's set off too!"

...

...

A coastal rainforest less than 30 kilometers from the east coast.

On the eastern foot of a large mountain, fresh soil and rocks are piled up into three small hills, and a recently dug tunnel leads in and out.

Descending through the cave, a completely different scene unfolds below.

Four or five ordinary buildings have been repaired, restored, and reinforced.

Jin used his spiritual power to scan the area and immediately got a general idea of ​​the numbers.

This is a hospital.

The Curcuma worm king and his companions did indeed dig up a hospital, and a very large and high-standard one at that.

But how could the hospital possibly have preserved the equipment?
Jin sensed the location of the other insects and quickened his pace to move forward.

Mental scan
Beneath a building, there appears to be an underground cold storage facility for medicines, with a hidden staircase in a small room leading to the third basement level.

The three underground floors were surprisingly constructed using tungsten-tantalum alloy, which still retains some of the original energy properties. Following the entrance, the corridor on both sides was lined with two-bedroom, one-living-room apartments.

Further in, there is a huge open space, forty or fifty meters wide and over a hundred meters long, where a device over a hundred meters long and shaped like a centipede is placed. Next to it is a large, square room, where an operating device that looks quite sophisticated is placed.

There are various small rooms filled with tiny devices, like a biological laboratory.

"..."

Jin understood everything immediately upon seeing it.

They weren't exactly a clandestine weapons manufacturing plant, but they were pretty much like it; they were creating humans...

Once all life forms in the universe awaken their Force, as they evolve and grow, they develop their own unique Force genes, and gradually become unable to pair and pass on their genes.

This raises two social problems:
Firstly, some Force warriors want offspring and hope to pass on their genes.

In the technology field, there is a gene stripping technology that, when combined with other biotechnologies, can achieve this and is permitted. However, the approval process is complex, taxes are extremely high, and the price is exorbitant.

This led to the emergence of underground workshops.

Secondly, there's the primal instinct of life: everyone wants to combine with superior genes to produce better offspring.

Being a Force Warrior directly implies superior genetics. The offspring of Force Warriors have a greater chance of awakening the Force.

Therefore, many ordinary people are willing to spend exorbitant sums to combine their own genes with those of Force warriors through biotechnology, resulting in the birth of superior offspring.

This is an illegal activity strictly prohibited by the federal government, which led to the emergence of highly profitable illegal workshops.

obviously,
The hospital's three underground floors are a shady workshop where these kinds of shady dealings take place.

The relevant equipment is strictly controlled and cannot be purchased on the market. The centipede-shaped device they are using is likely a modified 'eco-base station'.

The so-called 'ecological base station' is a device created by the human civilization during interstellar exploration to terraform colonized planets and establish planetary ecosystems. Divided into 38 segments from head to tail, corresponding to the 38 phyla of the animal kingdom on their home planet, it is designed in the form of a centipede or millipede, with legs to crawl and move across complex terrain. It also has its own gene database, capable of accessing gene pool data to synthesize all types of animals, including various mammals.

With a little technical knowledge and some modifications, it can be used to create humans.

—This thing isn't broken?

When he was human, King Kong was a righteous judge who specialized in cracking down on illegal and criminal activities involving Force warriors, and he was quite familiar with such matters.

Jin was puzzled and his figure flashed as he entered the ground.

The Sumeru Insect King and the Stone Insect King, along with a group of insect warriors who were guarding the second underground level, followed them in.

"These devices are clearly not for processing Force food."

The Meridian Lord pointed with its tentacles and said, "There is a hidden metal cover here. After opening it, fill it with Primal Crystals. You need to fill it with 120 at a time. We have already filled it up."

The King of the Eros Insects rushed down, heading straight for the control panel. It bent its antennae, pressed the start button, and called out, "Little Spider, over here, come and see. There are many characters from alien civilizations here..."

As he spoke, a white light rose, a white holographic screen lit up, flickered slightly, and densely packed characters appeared:

Chordata

Hemichordates

Phylum Chaegnathae

Phylum Heterogeneous

……

Jin pulled out a spider silk thread, tried clicking on "Chordata" and selected the confirmation button below.

The screen flashed, and then a long string of characters popped up:
[Mammalia]

[Aves]

[Reptiles]

……

Click to select [Mammalia].

Click OK.

The screen flashes, displaying a long string of characters:

[Primates]

[Order Pholidota]

【Dermaptera】

……

Click to select [Primates]

Click OK.

The screen flashed, displaying a long string of characters, with "Human Sciences" prominently featured at the top.

Continue clicking down: [Hominidae] - [Humanity] - [Homo] - [Homo sapiens]

Clicking on it again reveals a long string of file numbers: 001 to 138.
Jin understood immediately; it corresponded to the 138 ancestors of the human race, or rather, to the 138 united republics of the Galactic Federation.

It's not hard to guess that the database likely contains the genetic information of outstanding Force warriors from the 138 ancestral races and 138 branch races of humanity.

Click on any one of them, [001].

A prompt message appears: Please enter the key.
The data and information are encrypted using a 24-bit key that cannot be cracked by brute force.

Jin manipulated the spider webs to move, returned to the homepage, and selected again.

[Phylum Arthropoda] - [Class Arachnidae] - [Order Araneae] - [Flaming Spiders] - [Old Flaming Spider of the Rainforest]

Clicking to view reveals a simple four-character message: "[Data Missing]"

Jin manipulated the spider silk, returned to the homepage, and clicked around randomly. The directory was still there, but the genetic data of all organisms except those in the [Humans] category had been erased.

This is not hard to understand; since it was originally intended for human creation, redundant data would definitely be cleared out during the modification process.

The insects watching from behind lit up with excitement at Jin's skillful maneuver.

The Stone Insect King asked, "Jin, can you understand these characters?"

Jin replied, "I don't understand."

The Stone Insect King asked, "Can you make a preliminary guess as to what this device is used for?"

Jin pondered for a moment, then hesitated before saying, "First, let's confirm that the equipment is indeed intact. As for its purpose... it's a bit strange. I'll investigate it more carefully."
