Jiang Han rode on the back of a creature, traveling through the Ice Crystal Forest.

This mount was "gifted" to him by the residents of the previous ecozone, "Utopia No. 7".

A so-called "unicorn" with six arthropod-like long legs and a semi-transparent chitinous shell.

The constantly throbbing "horn" on its head looks more like some kind of indescribable tentacle.

"When he runs, he looks like a giant cockroach."

Jiang Han observed his surroundings while mentally ranting and raving.

The ecological zoning of this restricted area is very clear.

Those residents are unable to leave their own ecological zone, like microbial colonies separated by an invisible barrier.

"So, who is dividing these petri dishes?"

As he was thinking, the "cockroach beast" beneath him suddenly stopped and began nervously scratching at the ice.

Not far ahead, a Soviet-style observation tower made of black hardened protein came into view.

The watchtower is very high.

A girl's head peeked out from the only window at the top of the tower.

She had long, golden hair that stretched for tens of meters, cascading from the window all the way down to the snow at the base of the tower, looking like a golden waterfall from afar.

[Rapunzel?! Holy crap! A fairytale universe, huh?!]

[This hair... why does it feel like it's moving? Like a snake...]

[Don't talk nonsense, you scared me to death!]

Jiang Han's gaze darkened.

He saw it clearly.

That doesn't belong to human hair at all; it's more like living fibers.

Those golden "hair strands" slowly wriggled in the cold wind, with suction cup-like structures at the ends.

Beneath the watchtower, a hideous, mottled werewolf was frantically gnawing at the black wall.

Its mouth was covered in black blood, and saliva dripped from the corners of its mouth.

Upon seeing Jiang Han arrive, it immediately stopped moving and let out a low growl of jealousy and fear.

Lana, the girl at the top of the tower, also saw Jiang Han.

She was initially frightened, and her shoulders hunched over.

But the next second, that fear was overwhelmed by an overwhelming joy.

She looked at Jiang Han's handsome and strong body, then at the foul-smelling werewolf below the tower, and longing was practically written all over her face.

"Handsome Purifier, please save me!"

Lana shouted in a pre-programmed, sickeningly sweet voice.

"I don't want to be defiled by that ugly monster!"

"Please chase it away and save me!"

The classic "hero saves the damsel in distress" trap.

Jiang Han felt no emotional fluctuation; in fact, she even felt a little like laughing.

He completely ignored her request.

The black gold ancient sword was drawn from its sheath and hung at his feet.

He rode his sword into the air and hovered in front of the watchtower window, looking directly at the girl.

Why are you trapped here?

He asked the question right away, without exchanging any pleasantries.

Do you know the location of the "main control core"?

【( ゚Д゚)】

【What the heck! This is the epitome of straight men! Someone's asking for help, and you're asking for directions?!】

[Single by choice, destined to be alone! I call Jiang Shen the strongest!]

The sycophants below the tower were dumbfounded, probably thinking: "You can do this?!"

Lana was stumped by this unexpected question.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with confusion, and she seemed to have been paused from her program.

A few seconds later, as if she had successfully rebooted, she began to mechanically recite:

"As instructed by the first researcher."

"After the Alpha-level Purifier rescues the Beta-level researcher, both sides must immediately execute..."

"Gene continuation agreement".

"A gene continuation agreement?"

The word is too cold, carrying the smell of biology from a laboratory.

Jiang Han's eyes grew colder.

All the unease I felt in "Utopia 7" finally found a crack at this moment.

He stopped talking nonsense.

He reached out, grabbed Lana by the back of her collar, and lifted her out of the window like a kitten.

"what!"

Lana gasped and moved closer to Jiang Han uncontrollably.

She smelled the faint, masculine scent of blood on him, and her cheeks flushed instantly.

Jiang Han carried her down to the snow.

The inferior werewolf below the tower, witnessing this scene, let out a desperate and jealous howl, tucked its tail between its legs, and ran like a madman into the depths of the Ice Crystal Forest.

As soon as she landed, Lana immediately broke free, straightened her clothes, and then tried to throw herself into Jiang Han's arms.

"Great purifier, thank you for your salvation!"

"Now, let's begin to fulfill the agreement!"

She opened her arms, her face displaying a programmed shyness, but the fervor in her bones was undeniable, and she hugged Jiang Han tightly.

Jiang Han extended a finger and pressed it against her forehead.

Lana was blocked half a step away.

"The agreement can be terminated."

His tone was colder than the surrounding ice crystals.

"Now, tell me, where is the data center?"

Lana's fervor and shyness froze, turning into immense confusion and grievance.

She doesn't understand.

Why would this purifier with such perfect genes reject me?

This does not comply with the instructions left by the "first researcher"!

During his subsequent investigation, Jiang Han finally realized that this was not an isolated case at all.

He encountered a "mermaid" who crawled out of the frozen lake and lured him with her song.

That fish tail is actually countless slippery tentacles.

He also encountered a male "Sleeping Beauty" lying in an ice coffin, pretending to be unconscious.

The man was handsome. When he saw Jiang Han approaching, he immediately opened his eyes and gave him a flirtatious wink.

again and again.

Endless.

Jiang Han's expression gradually changed from initial wariness to impatience.

Finally, he no longer bothered to conceal his murderous intent.

"Are they really using this place as a breeding ground?"

Inside the live stream, viewers around the world gradually realized something was amiss after initially laughing and joking.

After the sense of absurdity faded, all that remained was a chilling fear.

Something's not right... This is really not right!

[This isn't just a honey trap anymore, this is... this is the entire forbidden zone courting Jiang Shen!]

[My scalp is tingling. Is this restricted area trying to steal Jiang Shen's genes?]

[[Codename: Arcane Council - Violet Eye]: Steal? Too lenient! This is plunder! A procreation ritual targeting superior bloodlines!]

The comments section was flooded with messages, and all sorts of guesses were flying around the screen.

Just then, a top-pinned comment emitting an ominous golden light appeared in everyone's view.

It's that mysterious ID that always stays hidden but always manages to reveal the truth at crucial moments—Night Watchman.

[Night Watchman]: This is not courtship, it's survival.

[The Night Watchman]: The ecosystem of this forbidden zone is collapsing; its collective will is searching for superior genes to perpetuate itself. It has its eye on your bloodline, Jiang Han.

【The Night Watchman】: It wants you to become its new 'Adam'.

This comment, like a black lightning bolt, cleaved through all the fog.

A cold, cruel, and chilling truth has been laid bare before the world.

In the Ice Crystal Forest.

Jiang Han stopped in her tracks.

He looked up at the drone's camera, as if he were making eye contact with the "Night Watchman" across the distance.

Then, a cruel smile appeared on his lips.

A phantom image of a Qilin flashed past his eyes.

As he faced the camera, it was as if he were whispering to the entire forbidden zone, to the collective will lurking in the shadows, spying on his genes.

The moment those words were uttered, billions of viewers worldwide felt a chill run down their spines.

"I see......"

"A mandatory mating program."

He laughed, suppressing both mockery and murderous intent.

"You want my child?"
