The expression on Valkyrie's face immediately became wonderful. This woman, who was always cold towards everything, was extremely excited when she thought of Zero's blood sample. His breathing quickened unnoticeably. Valkyrie nodded, ”Yes father, after a period of analysis and research. We found that zero's blood also contained the existence of a nucleus. ”

On the day of the Cataclysm, those who had gone through the genetic upheaval would become Adepts. However, no one knew how the Discipline came about. It was like a gift from heaven, one that allowed people to fight against the terrifying world before them. However, in the case of the Heroic Spirit Hall or the Dark Council, this phenomenon had been thoroughly studied for many years. In the blood of Adepts, they discovered a new type of life substance in their cells.

The substance was not in the known range. It was like a generator, causing everyone who owned it to produce a superpower. Because this material is the key and core of superpower, scholars call it nuclear.

Zero was also an Adept, so when Ben heard the news he didn't show much surprise.

But the next words that he said made the old man's heart tremble.

”It's also a core, but the code for a core found in the blood of zero is much longer than that for any other Adept. That means that zero has enormous and unknown potential, but more importantly, in this set of codes, we find that some of the code fits with the divine creation of the miracle. This proves from the other side that Zero is one of the survivors of the plan. ” ”He is a second generation new human with limitless possibilities!”

Ben's breathing became slightly heavier.

New humans were a way of addressing Adepts. They were another way for humans to evolve, but the new humans also had their own limitations. For example, there were limitations to their abilities in terms of potential, or they might not be able to escape from the shackles of longevity. Despite the appearance of special abilities, a small number of humans had undergone changes. This allowed them to fight against the earth, which had become extremely dangerous.

But after so many years of research, people had come to the conclusion that Disciplines were not without cost. The nucleus of the blood was comparable to a superpower generator. But since it was a generator, it needed to consume energy. Naturally, the consumption of nuclear energy was not fuel, but life force. The greater the ability, the greater the consumption. If the core of a low-level ability user was a generator, then a high-level ability user like Valkyrie would be a nuclear power plant.

In this age where the average human life expectancy was only forty years, Adepts weren't that much longer than normal humans. Of course, in order to deal with this problem, both the Heroic Spirit Hall and the Dark Council had research projects on how to extend their lives, and they had already achieved some results. However, even if the issue of longevity was overcome, the overuse of nuclear power would still lead to another terrifying consequence.

Gene collapse!

This was a result no one wanted to see, and the god found in the sacred scripture was the giant of light. The Hall of Heroic Spirits had discovered something similar to a nucleus, but its composition was much stricter than that of a nucleus. The mysterious code contained in that substance has not yet been fully deciphered. A small part of the code that can be deciphered includes near eternal life, as well as pure and recyclable life energy. From these two points of view, the giant of light created by the ancient civilization was a type of super life.

This was also the reason why the Heroic Spirit Palace would call this giant a god. The mysterious substance in the god's body was known as the Core of Light, which signified the location of hope.

Everlasting life, vast, pure, recyclable energy. This was the ideal life form. If they had this kind of life form, the human world would not be limited to the planet they were standing on. The endless stars would be their home.

More importantly, if the nucleus of light could be fully deciphered and replicated, not only humans, but also Adepts would be able to break away from their current low-level life forms and truly touch the world of the gods. This feat was comparable to the creation of the world, something that even this old man, who was late at night, would feel extremely excited about.

After that, the Hall of Heroic Spirits devoted a great deal of resources and talents to the study of the sacred scriptures. Furthermore, from the code for breaking the core of light, they had also researched a potion to extend their lifespan. However, when the giant of light was discovered, the super life created by the ancient civilization also came to the end of life, thus, the sample obtained by the Hall of Heroic Spirits was incomplete.

However, it was not easy to find samples of other giants while searching for other sacred relics. As far as Ben knew, only the Dark Council had developed another miracle in the Southwest, but there were no giants in it.

As a result, the progress in deciphering the core of light was pitifully slow in the last ten years. So now that he heard that Zero's blood contains a substance close to the core of light, how could he not be excited?

After all, his fires of life had already dimmed. If by the time he reached the end, he could decipher all the codes for the nucleus of light, then he would also have the hope of transforming into the second generation of new humans, and would possess an almost eternal life.
