Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 1029 - 478: The Whirl of Fate_3

As for Strength, Agility, and Resonance, they still reflect the attributes of his original body.

However, having been submerged in the cultivation liquid for so long, these attributes had even diminished somewhat.

—This is his true body!

Shen Ye allocated 450 free attribute points to "Strength" and "Agility."

His body gradually regained power, even forming strands of new muscle.

After all, this was a power granted by the "Gate," which could also be considered a unique "mutation."

"Congratulations, Shen Ye."

The ripple in the void reverberated, transforming into a voice:

"It seems that through our experiment, you’ve gained powerful abilities; your entire being exudes rising strength."

"We hope to collaborate with you further, to continue developing this scientific project and help you grow even stronger."

"I’d rather not." Shen Ye found a piece of clothing and draped it over himself.

The voice persisted:

"Shen Ye, if you continue cooperating with us, you can gain unprecedented power, wealth, and everything this world has to offer!"

"You will become one of the heroes!"

Shen Ye sat on a stone and started putting on his pants.

It was a pair of standard-issue leather pants for Human Empire frontline assassins—a relic from Norton, who had given him plenty over the years, including clothes.

"Slightly increases movement speed."

"—Shadow Brotherhood exclusive design."

After dressing, Shen Ye finally spoke:

"Can you tell me, how many ’materials’ were used in this scientific project?"

The voice suddenly became excited:

"Hundreds of thousands! Do you realize that this project has consumed hundreds of thousands of ’materials’? And we’ve made some discoveries and gains among them."

"—But nothing comes close to matching your level!"

"Shen Ye, you are the crowning jewel of this project!"

Shen Ye listened quietly, then shook his head and murmured to himself:

"So many people were killed..."

"I should’ve also died at your hands."

Indeed.

If it weren’t for the Ultimate Creation "Multiverse" breaking through the barrier, he would never have reached the other side, awakening within that young man.

In other words—

Regardless of himself or the "materials" next in line for the project, the outcome was inevitable: death.

This blood debt was unforgivable.

"What you carry within you is immensely significant, Shen Ye. Please don’t do anything foolish."

The voice urged.

But Shen Ye began stretching his body.

Although he had infused attribute points, his body hadn’t been active in a long time and needed gradual reactivation.

Compared to his other body, this one was older, probably in his early twenties, and more handsome.

Of course, that was of no significance.

Still, the concept of "true names" seemed to have played a role during his resurrection.

—Both bodies shared the same name.

"Rest assured, I am a very rational person; I won’t be easily swayed by emotions."

Shen Ye finally said.

Relief could be heard in the voice as it responded:

"Good, then your rewards will be arranged shortly. Whether it’s money, power, or even women, all your requests will be fulfilled."

"I have only one request." Shen Ye said.

"What is it?" the voice asked.

Shen Ye’s expression turned nostalgic: "I recall being hit by a car back then, and then immediately taken to a private hospital. The entire process was as smooth as a choreographed sequence. Tell me—"

"That car accident was premeditated, wasn’t it?"

"Why?"

The other side was silent for a moment before answering:

"You will learn the details of this plan sooner or later; hiding it from you serves no purpose."

"Yes, you were chosen."

"Chosen?" Shen Ye asked.

"Indeed, you were in good health with no close relatives. Your disappearance from society wouldn’t cause any ripples, making it easier to avoid unnecessary trouble," the voice explained.

"I see."

Shen Ye raised his hand.

A massive, flame-red greatsword materialized in his grasp.

"We’ve said enough. I have no further demands of you; I only want to kill you all."

As his words fell—

Blazing flames erupted, tearing through the room.

BOOM—

The fire scorched through reinforced concrete, obliterating everything in its way.

The ceiling was torn open, and Shen Ye finally saw it—the laboratory was situated in an extremely remote desert.

The collapsing walls also revealed the scene next door.

Countless body bags were stored in a low-temperature environment, piled densely onto racks.

Shen Ye glanced at them before looking away.

If not for the barrier opening at that exact moment, allowing him to enter the experiment, a single minute earlier or later would have meant his death too.

Bodies stacked here.

Forever trapped in Eternal slumber alongside countless innocents.

BEEP BEEP BEEP—

A shrill alarm sounded.

Once more, ripples swirled in the void, coalescing into a voice:

"What a shame, Shen Ye."

"You had already touched the threshold of upper society, but your crudeness and ignorance sealed your true Fate."

"We will learn from this mistake and refine our approach in future experiments."

"Farewell."

Even before the voice finished, Shen Ye sensed something.

A sharp whistling noise came from the distant sky.

—It was a missile.

What kind of missile?

Impossible to determine.

There was no time to escape.

As for opening the Gate and leaving—

Shen Ye scanned his surroundings and quickly dismissed the idea.

The voice had just mentioned that he was nearing the threshold of upper society, meaning there were other powerful beings involved.

In that case—

It was best not to reveal his trump card to anyone.

Especially the powers of the "Gate."

The missile rapidly approached the base.

The next moment—

A blinding light enveloped the heavens and the earth.

"Ah, it’s a nuclear bomb."

Shen Ye remarked almost casually.

Amidst the rapidly intensifying heat and Destruction, a series of faint glowing words flashed before his eyes:

"You are currently in the Fifth Epoch of the Multiverse, where Professionals can wield Technique Spirit Skills."

"You’ve used Magic Spirit Fei Lun’s Skill:"

"Transformation: Dragon."
