I'm a magnetic field madman

"Nonsense."

"Dr. Albrecht, the lords hope you can create beings like those 'Enhanced Cursed Children' as soon as possible. To this end, all permissions on 'Pandora' will be granted to you, and all the Zodiac Belts have been transported to your laboratory..." A butler-like figure delivering the message said softly.

"Go to hell, what do you think research is? Do you think I'm doing this?" Albrecht rolled his eyes and cursed without any politeness...

"Three months! I need at least three damn months to produce any initial results! The sooner they do, the sooner they should just die!"

"Forget it, there's no point in arguing with someone like you. Tell those guys to give me time, or go and buy themselves some time. Three months, at least three months before I can show them the results they want, understand?"

The messenger readily patted his chest and retreated, while Albrecht, looking at the torn paper, revealed a sinister smile that suggested he had mastered the plan.

Very good. From now on, he will have complete control over all the resources and everything in the Freemasons.

And he will surely create something that will not disappoint the emperor!

With the defeat of the combined fleet, the Freemason-controlled Western world could no longer cover up its lies.

Because disaster had already arrived along with that "failed" fleet.

The ships and sailors infected by the virus created by Blue Poison began their journey back to where they came from that very day.

Fleets that set out from Australia, Europe, and the Americas soon welcomed back the ships they had sent out.

But these ships did not return with good news of victory, nor did they return like stray dogs bowing their heads to accept humiliation.

They returned carrying gifts of endless malice.

Just as Blue Poison had praised, these plague fleets, carrying extremely deadly and highly infectious properties, did indeed bring endless destruction and death to these arrogant Westerners.

Before even getting close to the coast, the corroded miniature nuclear fusion bombs and a series of weapons originally intended to strike Tokyo were all thrown out at once.

This instantly silenced the intercepting forces and counter-fire on the shore...

This act, which resembled "betrayal," left these puppet governments controlled by the Freemasons speechless.

To be honest, even without this defecting fleet, the military strength of these governments and countries is far from sufficient.

Because the gradually changing magnetic field environment is constantly urging those Gastrea to complete the metamorphosis of the Demon God, and even a juvenile magnetic field Demon God can cause astonishingly huge damage!

Moreover, the giant stone tablet could not stop the demon god's advance at all.

This left various countries, which had long relied on and become accustomed to maintaining low-intensity counterinsurgency within the safe perimeter of the megaliths under Freemasonry control, bewildered.

They had to use a massive number of armored troops and an astonishing amount of ammunition to drive the demons that appeared from time to time out of their safe zone, while also wiping out as many Gastrea as possible.

The Freemasons also realized that in the new world situation of the future...

It's no longer their place to continue the practice of keeping humans in captivity for their own benefit.

Therefore, the large-scale Gastrea cleanup operation actually began as early as two weeks ago.

The results can only be described as quite remarkable, even without the support of the Freemasons...

Relying on the megaliths to continuously expand outwards and carry out clearing operations, the troops of various countries quickly reclaimed much of the lost territory.

This further proves how easily the Freemasons' lies were exposed: that humanity must rely on the monolith to survive? With that monolith, humanity should have been the winner.

Despite this, many wild demons still posed a serious obstacle to the cleanup operations of various countries.

At the same time, the power of Bai Wujie's attack, amounting to 500,000 horsepower, spread...

The world, having partially unlocked its "upper limit," has further catalyzed the increase in the number of demons... causing the originally smooth counterattack to encounter a huge bottleneck a week ago.

The sudden awakening of demons in various regions has severely hampered the advance of ground troops. In addition, the Freemasons' demand to withdraw major forces to form a joint fleet has left countries with no choice but to maintain their existing defenses and refrain from taking action.

It can be said that the military forces within each country are already severely depleted.

But it was precisely at this critical juncture that the combined fleet, controlled by the viral plague created by Blue Poison, was "defeated" and forced to retreat.

After the satellite weapon overhead was destroyed by Bai Wujie with a single finger, the Freemasons were out of options. After all, their ability to manipulate politics and economics was utterly useless against the fleets laden with viruses.

The rampaging plague fleet destroyed the coastal defenses of those countries in an instant. Those who retained their memories of their previous lives were now completely controlled by the fungi in their brains and the worms in their bodies.

They have only one purpose in their hearts: to carry out the mission of the great and loving mother and bring "blessings" to every unfortunate fellow human being!

After destroying the coastal defenses of their former country, they did not hesitate to flood ashore, and then—

Most of them were killed on the first day... but just when these countries thought it was over, only a few days had passed—

Domestically, in their cities, almost every densely populated area, a terrible epidemic broke out.

AIDS, smallpox, Ebola, the Black Death, anthrax—all the most serious and terrifying viruses known to humankind exploded among the population like bombs!

However, this is only the best batch.

The most terrifying of all were undoubtedly the various complex viruses they had never even heard of: viral structures that directly affect DNA, fungi that alter the ecological environment, worm viruses that corrode the body and create "zombies," and so on...

In just one week, the entire country of Australia has fallen...

Humanity has demonstrated through its actions that it does not possess a strong ability to resist super plagues.

Not to mention that this is not only a virus that kills people, but also a virus that creates "enemies" for them.

Under the combined attack from both inside and outside, the so-called safe city and country were breached in just one week.

They tried to resist and tried to isolate, but the pervasive multi-pathway infection, coupled with the foolishness of the people, allowed the virus to run rampant and ruthlessly.

And then? There was no then.

Australia is completely wiped out, Europe is left with only Italy barely surviving, and as for the Americas...

The Freemasons implemented the most brutal anti-epidemic policy in this area, which was to carry out "high-temperature disinfection" on all infected areas.

A large number of nuclear fusion bombs, originally intended to be used against enemies and to maintain subsequent rule, were dropped on the American mainland... to eliminate the source of infection through direct attacks on these heavily infected areas.

The cruel approach was efficient and deterred those fools who had become too accustomed to peacetime, teaching them how to listen to reason.

Even so, a significant portion of the large number of carriers created in the plague-controlled areas still escaped... and chose to hide while continuously attacking safe urban areas and settlements.

Furthermore, the increasingly harsh magnetic field environment has created demons and various magnetic field-mutated creatures, to put it bluntly...

Just over a month ago, the Western world was filled with joy and celebration, but now it is filled with lamentations.

Condemnation, scathing criticism, slander—are these useful? They are utterly useless.

The person who created all of this wouldn't care about their suffering and death... because they weren't his people, so no matter how much they suffered, they weren't worth a second glance.

Since this world will be cleansed by him sooner or later anyway, the pollution and disasters caused are just problems that will be eliminated when the time comes.

Perhaps humanity will perish within one to two years before the Blue Dream Genesis Project is even launched.

61. Rentaro's Ultimate Insult

Inside a secret research base in Yellowstone National Park...

After recovering from his gunshot wound, Albrecht immediately threw himself into his research.

His fervent work ethic provided a slight respite for the high-ranking Freemasons.

Judging from this spirit alone, it's impossible for this most talented researcher among them to betray them.

Albrecht also didn't want to pay attention to the thoughts of these political creatures, and devoted more energy and enthusiasm to his research...

He was simply trying to present a perfect work for his God Emperor.

He is indeed contributing this loyalty based on his abilities and thirst for knowledge...

But it would never be done for these idiots who talk about politics and humanity all the time.

but……

"Oh no, this won't work at all."

Albrecht looked at the Zodiac Capricorn imprisoned in the special containment device and let out a long sigh...

These zodiac behemoths were far from meeting his expectations of being comparable to Bai Wujie's "creations," such as Skadi and Blue Poison, which Bai Wujie "created"...

Scorpio and Libra, being the lowest signs in the zodiac, exhibit behaviors that defy human comprehension.

Naturally, Albrecht also wanted to replicate the success of the White Boundary, but after investing in research, he discovered that these zodiac zones were completely "unqualified".

"They have been imprisoned and controlled for too long, so the Freemasons have chosen to restrict the movement of these zodiac signs by continuously freezing them at low temperatures and confining them in containers with a birch magnetic field. This has led to their unstoppable 'degeneration' during this long period of suppression."

Holding a cup of coffee, Sumire Muroto approached her teacher, gazing at the enormous, fleshy figure imprisoned in the cage, and sighed softly…

"Scorpio and Libra are both zodiac signs that were chosen to be 'free-range' because of their inherent weakness... This allowed them to escape harsh environments and gain the ability to survive and evolve in nature."

"Just like poultry and wild animals, even if the latter are strong, they will degenerate after being domesticated by humans for many years. On the other hand, even if the latter are not strong at the beginning, they will gradually become stronger through long-term adaptation."

Yes, Albrecht's biggest problem was that these zodiacal zones were no longer adapted to changes in the environment.

The "breeding and isolation" of these monsters, which were originally from the laboratory, makes them no longer perfectly adapted to changes in the outside world. Even if they are thrown out to recover naturally, they will need a "recovery period" of at least three years.

But clearly they didn't have the precious time to wait.

However, it's not to say that there were no benefits at all. The three years of degeneration caused these zodiac signs to begin to degenerate back to their original form, even though they did not evolve in the direction of "demon gods".

It's the degeneration of the protoplasmic vesicles that even Albrecht couldn't figure out.

Albrecht scratched his graying hair in frustration, then looked at Sumire Muroto, who was holding a cup of hot coffee, and grinned...

"My student, you came to see your teacher not to waste your breath, right?"

“Yes, Dr. Albrecht,” Sumire Muroto said softly, handing him the coffee.

"We have found Rentaro."

"Oh? Is that so? How exactly did you find it?" Albrecht wasn't surprised, not even a little bit delighted, he just took the coffee and asked with a smile.

“Since you already know, why should I repeat myself?” Sumire Muroto said expressionlessly, but seeing Albrecht’s amused smile, she sighed, ruffled her hair, and whispered…

“It’s me. I’ve always wanted to find Rentaro’s whereabouts. The Emperor promised not to hunt him down anymore, and I’ve been searching for him ever since…”

"Until seven days ago, I finally got information about him. I just sent a group of modified soldiers to take Rentaro away. He will be here soon."

“There must be a very complicated story behind this, and I think it must be a very tragic one.”

Albrecht took a sip of his hot coffee and murmured softly through the rising steam…

"And I think, isn't this kind of 'misery' precisely why our Emperor chose Rentaro Satomi as the clown?"

……

The United States, a country hailed as a beacon of freedom, was at the pinnacle of world civilization before the disaster struck.

And it is the same after the disaster.

If Tokyo is an apocalyptic city that doesn't feel like the end of the world, then America is living a life no different from before the apocalypse, except perhaps a bit more isolated.

At the end of the Gastrea War, as key targets of the Dead Hand system, fifty US states suffered far more nuclear strikes than they had anticipated.

However, because the neutron jammer was activated early on, most of the nuclear weapons deployed by Lucia were rendered ineffective, thus failing to eliminate this despicable mastermind from the world.

However, Seris's fusion bomb still hit several states.

Texas, Montana, Utah, Wyoming, and Illinois.

Without satellites, nuclear fusion bombs cannot be precisely targeted and can only cause damage within a general range.

And for this reason, the losses suffered by the United States at the end of the Gastrea War were... entirely within acceptable limits.

The most prosperous and resource-rich areas lost only Chicago and Houston, while key cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and Detroit remained almost intact.

With the Freemasons relocating their headquarters, the United States completely emerged from the shadow of Gastrea warfare in less than a year.

And because of its global collapse, its "hegemony" is even greater than before.

Of course, because Freemasonry's purpose is "herding"...

Their actions, in turn, prevented the United States from achieving its goal of global unification during this "golden opportunity," and instead forced it to remain confined to the Americas.

Even so, the standard of living in the United States after the disaster far surpasses that of any other place on Earth.

They lived lives no different from before: watching TV, playing video games, playing football, dribbling basketball, womanizing, partying, doing drugs, DOI...

They didn't even stop holding the Super Bowl, and the singing and dancing continued... Except for not being able to travel abroad freely, their lives were no different from before the disaster.

Oh no, if we have to point out a difference, then there is one.

That means there's another target for "racial discrimination".

In this country, people of color have always been at the top of the social hierarchy. Even the so-called equal rights movement that caused a great stir back then was nothing more than a tactic used by the upper class to divide the lower class.

Or rather, the so-called "diversity" that is forcibly created is actually the biggest manifestation of discrimination.

Now, setting aside the issue of skin color, the bottom of this country's social hierarchy has been replaced by a new class, which is undoubtedly—
