Chapter 196 A New Direction

No one could answer Li Tianran's question.

The future is unknown, unpredictable; any fantasies and plans made now will change to some extent when the future truly arrives.

"Go call Bai Jingyan over and have him take over the biological research lab inside Sky Castle." Li Tianran cleared his mind of those distant, macro-level conjectures; thinking about these things too much would only leave him in a state of panic.

Future matters could be considered later.

Wasn't it a bit much to start thinking about the distant "Great Destruction" when they hadn't even defeated the ancient civilization yet?

"Notify Bai Jingyan to take over the biological research lab inside Sky Castle." Li Tianran stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his brow furrowed. "Our warriors are too weak to face the ancient civilization's enemies."

During this period of fighting the ancient civilization, the mortality rate of the Pioneers was very high.

The difference in life levels could not be compensated by courage and combat style; Li Tianran needed to raise the Pioneers' life levels to a higher level as soon as possible.

Although the Apostles did not regard life level as the strongest means of their race, it was because their technological weapons were stronger, strong enough to obscure the brilliance of second-stage evolved life forms, so they tilted most of their focus on technological weapons.

But Li Tianran felt that life technology and technological technology had the same potential.

For a race, whether it was developing technology or expanding power, what was the ultimate goal?

Nothing more than to be able to live better!

The development of life technology coincided with the ultimate goal of living beings.

Second-stage evolvers could already ignore most of the thermal weaponry possessed by human civilization, so if they continued to develop, would third-stage evolution, fourth-stage evolution, truly manifest the gods and demons of the mythical age?

Time could not kill them, external objects could not kill them.

Riding the wind in nuclear explosions, bathing in magma!

The ultimate in biotechnology would be... true immortality!

Li Tianran's heart rate began to accelerate.

For a race, biotechnology was needed, and the development of technological weapons was also necessary!

Only the balance of these two was the correct path.

...

"Too wonderful, too wonderful! The gene arrangement of biological cells, there is actually such a possibility of disassembly and recombination..." Bai Jingyan sat in Sky Castle. Li Tianran had completely unlocked the permissions of the entire biological laboratory for him, and Bai Jingyan found a large amount of biological technology data and resources recorded by the ancient civilization.

The things recorded in these materials, those wonderful deductions, those wild imaginations, these materials seemed to open a new door, and Bai Jingyan immediately fell deeply into them.

For him, the technology recorded in these materials was no different from the significance of the North Heaven Gate project to Chen Tiannan.

It was simply... a miracle!

Li Tianran was not surprised by Bai Jingyan's reaction, nor did he look down on him for it, thinking that Bai Jingyan was too useless.

Because Bai Jingyan's level was not bad; the reason why he was so far behind the ancient civilization's biotechnology was because he had not been deeply involved in the study of biotechnology for long enough!

Only half a year had passed since the First Age of Destruction, and this was precisely the time that Bai Jingyan had truly been researching evolvers.

However, the ancient civilization's research on biotechnology began when the Sky Apostles were still small soldiers in the race, and then after several resurrections after great destructions, the total research time may have exceeded a thousand years!

That was the crystallization of a race's thousand years of wisdom.

No matter how monstrous Bai Jingyan was, it was impossible for him to surpass the other party in half a year!

If he really wanted to make a comparison, when Bai Jingyan first copied the gene potion of the evolver, it only took him a short ten days to successfully inject Xiao Hei's cell genes into his body, complete the replication, and create the first evolver.

According to the information obtained from Teng Ba's memory, Li Tianran learned that countless years ago, their race spent a full five years from the first discovery of evolvers mutated after being radiated to successfully copying the first one!

This data could very clearly show the comparison of strength between the two.

"Just a few hours ago, I performed an anatomical comparison of the corpses of the Sky Apostles and the corpses of the sub-sequence followers who were hunted before, and found some very abnormal phenomena. Their genes are the same, but not completely the same." Bai Jingyan's expression carried a trace of excitement. He stared at the translated data in his hand and said in a deep voice, "I was very confused about why this situation occurred, but now, I seem to understand!"

The language used by the Sky Apostle race was extremely special and not interoperable with human writing, but after Li Tianran mastered the Sky Castle, he input and saved human language and writing, so those materials could be understood by Bai Jingyan.

"The same genes, but not completely the same... What does this mean?" Li Tianran stood beside Bai Jingyan, frowned and asked, listening to his inexplicable language.

"Haven't you noticed? In the ancient civilization, although the Apostles who are in the leadership class and the sub-sequence followers all belong to the second-stage evolvers, it is very obvious that the Apostles have stronger power, stronger bodies, and more... terrifying and mighty appearance!" Bai Jingyan pondered his words, using words that were as simple and straightforward as possible.

Li Tianran raised his eyebrows.

The situation Bai Jingyan said did exist.

Putting aside everything else, just take the Sky Apostle as an example. Most of the followers of the same race under its command, although they have undergone second-stage evolution, their appearance is still similar to the pterosaur image of the dinosaur era, the same as Teng Ba's original appearance. Although it does not look ugly, it is definitely not associated with majesty and holiness.

However, Teng Ba himself, after undergoing second-stage evolution, directly transformed from the previous pterosaur appearance into the image of a giant dragon, and its power far exceeded the followers who were also second-stage evolvers.

Not only it, but the same situation also applied to several other races.

The Apostles were the most special one in the race.

The Ocean Apostle and the Black Night Apostle's bodies were huge and majestic, surpassing the followers of the same race, and their combat power was ridiculously strong.

In the war with the Sky Apostle's followers, the Black Night Apostle and the Ocean Apostle, who were also second-stage evolvers, almost suppressed enemies a hundred times their number with their own power in frontal combat.

Although the Gale Apostle and the Star Apostle did not have much change in their forms compared to the followers in the race, as long as you take a look, you can find the difference between them and the followers.

It seemed that a kind of "divinity" was shrouded in the Apostles!

And this divinity was completely lacking in the sub-sequence followers!

"The evolution methods of the Apostles and the followers are different!" Bai Jingyan raised his head and looked at Li Tianran, saying word by word.
