Hunter × Hunter: The Seven Deadly Sins

"So did you find anything?"

Illumi and Dr. Boyce walked side by side, heading back towards the arena.

"It's just started now, and there is no progress yet."

"However, I found a very interesting thing."

Boyce's voice changed, which made Illumi curious.

"Oh~?"

"tell me the story."

"You also know that from ancient times to the present, most terrestrial organisms have evolved from marine organisms."

"But there is another situation in the deep-sea creatures captured by our people in the sea near the boundary."

"We found in the deep-sea marine organisms that live near the boundary waters that some of the deep-sea marine organisms' genes actually contain the genes of certain land animals."

"This made my experiment possible."

Yilumi's expression changed slightly when he heard the words, marine life has the genes of terrestrial life.

What this means is self-evident.

"Because of weapons and equipment, only our organization has the conditions to capture deep-sea marine life in the border waters, and other countries or organizations have no problem even reaching the border waters.

"This is our chance."

"Being one step ahead of the world, understanding the origin of the Dark Sea, the Dark Continent, and the human world will help us understand the Dark Continent and the Dark Sea in the next step, and help us develop projects for the Dark Continent and the Dark Sea."

At this time, Pride, who had never spoken, took a step forward and said.

"Very good, let's go on."

Illumi nodded in agreement.

Immediately, a group of armed personnel came down to the entrance of the biological experiment base. With a "click", the automatic door slowly opened.

A group of people visited this huge biological experiment base with curiosity.

And Boyce took advantage of this opportunity,

Two steps behind, walking side by side with Dr. Ballard and Dr. Baldwin.

While walking, the three of them were whispering to each other.

After a while, it seemed that the communication had come to fruition, and Dr. Boyce stepped forward again and walked to Illumi's side.

"Boss, because my current research has deviated from the human life engineering."

"So, I think..."

"Do you want to set up an independent research institute?"

Before Boyce finished speaking, Illumi had already interrupted.

Boyce opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, he could only look at Illumi, expecting his decision.

"That's right, the three of you were working together on human life engineering research before."

"Due to the relocation of the headquarters, the Biotechnology R\u0026D Department and the New Antibiotics R\u0026D Department have been temporarily combined into the Biomedicine R\u0026D Department."

"It used to be that the conditions were not enough, but now your research direction has deviated from the human life engineering."

"Then restart the Biotechnology Research Institute and set up a Biotechnology Research and Development Department, which you will be solely responsible for."

"Then separate Dr. Ballard and Dr. Baldwin from the Biomedical R\u0026D Department and set up the Department of Human Life Engineering, which will be jointly responsible by the two doctors."

"As for the Biomedical Research and Development Department, Dr. Helen Stuart is in charge."

In just a few minutes, Yilumi divided a department into three independent departments, and each department is responsible for the research of a certain project, which is no longer as complicated as before.

Resource allocation is more reasonable.

"Boss, there is one more thing." Boyce did not back down, he still had something to say.

"Say." Yilumi said calmly.

"I'm applying for research on the longevity food [Nitolomi]."

Upon hearing this, Yilumi glanced at him faintly from the corner of his eye while walking, and within a moment of thought, he understood his intention.

"Can."

Those two words made Boyce suddenly raise his head, with a look of excitement on his face, but at least he was an old man who had lived most of his life, so he calmed down the next moment.

"Boyce will not let you down, boss."

"hope so."

Yilumi replied lightly, quickened his pace, and walked in the man-made forest.

"But, Boyce."

After a while, Illumi suddenly stopped and called out his name.

"What are your orders?"

Boyce came behind Illumi, waiting for his order with a respectful expression.

"To apply for something like this, just connect to Riley."

"Don't wait until I get back to the headquarters to say, it's a waste of time."

"Yes, boss."

Boyce nodded respectfully, but his heart tightened.

In fact, for some reason, recently, when Boyce applied for a resource from Riley, a feeling of horror arose in his heart.

The thrill that sent chills down his spine was as if what he was facing was not a person, but a computer, a computer with human thinking.

"Boss, Riley..." Boyce hesitated as soon as he spoke.

"What happened to her?" Illumi asked with his back turned to him.

"I think you'd better go and see her for yourself, I think she..."

"She's been a little out of sorts lately."

Boyce himself couldn't say what state she was in, but he just felt that there must be something wrong with Riley.

"yes?"

Yilumi responded flatly, standing on the edge of the artificial lake, looking at the calm lake, wondering what he was thinking.

A group of more than ten people accompanied Yilumi like this, standing by the lake without saying a word.

Man-made forests, man-made mountains, man-made lakes, man-made rivers, everything in the biological experiment base was artificially created, which made Illumi feel that something was missing.

"It's really peaceful here."

Illumi suddenly said, and the expressions of the accompanying Boyce and his party moved slightly.

"However, it's not a good thing to be too calm."

"Often under this calm surface, there are even more astonishing undercurrents hidden."

After the words fell, Yilu Mi suddenly turned around and walked towards the way she came.

"Pride, ask Riley to meet me in the central conference room immediately."

"yes."

Pride nodded and opened Riley's communication at the same time.

On the southern border of the island country, Qingshi Mountain.

"Woo~"

Under a cliff, a gray Timberwolf was licking something with its head down, whimpering from time to time.

The screen moves down slightly.

On the ground in front of Timberwolves, a ragged teenager was lying on his back, with messy hair, muddy face, bruises and scars on his arms and legs, and a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

He is the boy from Qingshi Town who escaped from those monsters before, Kaizhisuke.

The place where he is staying now is the edge of a vast forest on the other side of the Qingshi Mountains, which is a hundred kilometers away from Qingshi Town on the other side of the Qingshi Mountains.

Go seven kilometers further and you will see the sea.

"Shua!"

Suddenly, the boy lying on the ground suddenly opened his eyes, and first took a big breath of air.

Immediately, the first thing he saw was Yizhang's wolf's mouth approaching him, and he slapped it out in fright, and slapped the Timberwolf on the ground with a "slap".
