Chapter 998 - The Pitiful Bald Man (2/2)

From the vantage point of Beowulf, no Level 5 Metahuman could be trusted since most of them were sided with a country or a certain group. The only Level 5 Metahuman he knew that was truly neutral was Zhuge Shanzhen.

”You want me to take care of your egg?” said Jiang Fei, a little confused. He could not help took a quick glance at Beowulf's crotch region.

”That is right, Master Zhuge. This egg will take seven days to incubate and after that, I will be reborn. I do not know what I can give you as a reward but… You are my only hope. There is no one I know that could be as unmoving as you! Please! You are all I have,” Beowulf pleaded. The impression of Zhuge Shanzhen amongst the Metahuman society was truly remarkable. If he wanted the egg for himself, Beowulf would have to be eaten alive and truth be told, he was rather be eaten by Zhuge Shanzhen than anyone else.

”Mhm…” Jiang Fei groaned. It felt like a test of morality. To be honest, Jiang Fei was tempted by the Level 5 power. Fortunately, Jiang Fei had only just recently graduated from being incredibly naive to being mentally mature. However, he could not bring himself to wrong another man when he had come all the way to beg for his help!

Thinking from another angle… Jiang Fei was surrounded by many pretty girls. If he were to become… a eunuch like Beowulf… Instinctively, Jiang Fei glance at Isabella and noticed the ferocious dragon-like stare. If was as if she was telling she would bite the hell out of him if he dares to eat the egg!

With Isabella's hypothetical fangs at his throat, Jiang Fei immediately reached a decision.

”Captain, there is no need for you to think so much. The man had only just eaten the Rebirth Egg of the Void Manta! The Level 5 power he owns is merely the same as Ariel, a pseudo-Level 5 power. There was no awakening…” said 0542 when Jiang Fei was conflicted.

”Void Manta?” Jiang Fei hits an epiphany.

”Captain, you do remember the mixed-breed Void Manta that you fought a long time ago, deep under the sea?”

”Right! That!” Jiang Fei nodded. He remembered 0541 had informed him about Void Manta had crossed bred with Earth-based animals. The mixed-breed offspring of the Void Manta was incredibly weaker than its original alien parent. Even so, that Void Manta was still at the Beginner stage of Level 4.

”When Braveheart crashed landed on Earth, many alien specimens managed to escape their captivity and roam the Earth. One of which was the Doomsday beast that you had already captured. After proliferating on Earth, the Void Manta managed to leave a weaker version of its form. As such, the Level 5 Void Manta had chosen to evolve, losing its means to reproduce to gain a new method to preserve one's life by choosing the rebirth method.”

Based on 0542 analysis of Beowulf, Jiang Fei understood that the Void Manta had been around for more than thousands of years ago. It was only when one thousand years back did the Void Manta choses to use its rebirth method to continue living. The result was undesirable since the egg was not kept safely. It was, however, due to several unknown reasons, the egg washed up ashore and was picked up by the famished Beowulf. As a result, Beowulf gained incredible powers in exchange for not having to express his libido. That was the result of genetic material far superior than that of humans. Beowulf's genetic makeup nows determines that the traditional method of reproduction proves to be unbecoming hence, it was… removed.
