Main God Creation Rules

The four samples derived from the T virus are connected by a thought and exploration of the "limit". However, at the end of this exploration, Lin Yi suddenly discovered a problem: Does the so-called limit really exist?

If it exists, will crossing this limit truly allow one to transcend all things as ideally envisioned?

Just like cultivators undergoing tribulations to become immortals, just like magicians achieving legends, just like mortals igniting divine fire to ascend to godhood... If we transcend the limits of humanity, will it really be a bright and hopeful future like in novels?

528 hours, 33 minutes and 17 seconds ago, Lin Yi, who had been injected with the potion created by the main god, finally got the answer.

Limits exist, at least for life forms like "human beings".

Just as flesh and blood, no matter how tough, cannot surpass the hardness of metal, the limits of "humanity" will always exist as long as we explore them. It's just that the limits will vary from person to person. And once we surpass these "limits," what will ultimately appear is not so-called "transcendence," but rather the exact opposite: behind the limits lies a "forbidden zone."

—It belongs to genes, to humanity, and to the “forbidden zone” of life itself.

If the instinct and purpose of life is reproduction and survival, then the forbidden zone of life is extinction and extinction, and not a slow transformation from the outside in, but a violent change from the inside out that begins as soon as it is opened.

Therefore, after crossing that limit, Lin Yi gave this virus a name: Forbidden Zone.

As its name suggests, its function is neither mutation nor atavism, but simply to help you cross the limits and eventually enter that "forbidden zone"—the forbidden zone of life.

Everything in nature is in constant transformation. Water evaporates to form fog, fog condenses to form clouds, clouds accumulate and fall as rain—becoming water again. In this process, all energy is conserved. No drop of water will be added or removed out of thin air. In this state, the energy contained in a drop of water is at most the same as the energy contained when it falls from the sky to the ground. Any umbrella can easily block it.

However, what would happen if, in violation of the law of conservation of energy, a drop of water were completely annihilated, thus triggering the energy contained within it?

It's probably something like this...

In the almost still world, Lin Yi curiously observed the dust frozen in mid-air, the splashing flames, the condensed water vapor, and Alex opposite him, who was sticking an arm into the ground.

Unlike the others who are "still," this virus carrier is still "moving," but because the relative speed is so slow, it appears to be still. In this respect, I guess I'm about the same now. Only the speed of my thoughts can be accelerated to this extent without any restrictions; as for actions, I can only proceed little by little...

[Caution: The host's genetic information is being consumed too quickly. Please stop your current activity immediately.]

"...I had forgotten about you."

The origin and purpose of the God Realm remain a mystery to this day, which is evident in the fact that it can still communicate as if at normal speed, even at a thought speed that is hundreds of times faster than a fraction of a second...

After putting that thought aside, Lin Yi began to "move" her body—there were too many things to consider in this regard.

The first downside of opening the "forbidden zone" is that the subconscious's protection of the body completely fails. Once you use force beyond the body's limits, you'll probably die by your own hand before the enemy dies. Therefore, every step needs to be taken slowly and cautiously...

It "slowly" avoided several stray bullets "fixed" in the middle of its path, much like airplanes and birds flying high in the sky. If it were to collide with them at this speed, Lin Yi had no doubt that they could easily pierce through him. Afterward, it selectively bypassed those raised areas of ground—as expected, there should be a part of Alex's body underneath.

In this respect, this incomplete "forbidden zone" virus also has its advantages. Not only does it have an extremely vigorous vitality, but it can also arbitrarily distort its genetic information to become another form. The complete "forbidden zone" cannot do this, and may even fix its genetic information at the moment of contact with it.

Finally, standing before Alex on that fragile ground, Lin Yi was at a loss. How could he completely kill this being who was almost impossible to kill because of the attention of the world's will? This was simply an unsolvable problem.

At that moment, the Supreme God suddenly sent a message.

According to known intelligence, the farther a region is from the Earth's surface, the lower the intensity of interference from the world's will.

"...Why didn't you say so before?"

At that time, it was impossible for the host to take the target off the surface.

After glancing at Alex, who had concealed a large amount of flesh and blood beneath the surface, Lin Yi had to admit the judgment of the Supreme God.

Don't even mention taking it off the surface; if you get too close, it will probably bind you and devour you. It's only possible to do that under these circumstances.

"So……"

Reaching out, Lin Yi "gently" grasped the throat of the virus carrier before him. Perhaps he used too much force, as his hand felt a snapping sensation. Ignoring this, Lin Yi gradually increased the pressure on his leg, then truly "stepped" on it—

For Alex Marshall, everything before him was incomprehensible.

From the moment it tried to attack its "Creator," who had lost its armor, from a distance using its talons, to the moment its eyes and eardrums ruptured and it lost all sense of the outside world, less than half a second had passed. When it was repaired again, it had lost the ability to move and could only use the corner of its eye to look down at the city below—a semi-circular depression was still clearly visible even at such a height in the area directly below.

How high is it here?

One kilometer?

Two kilometers?

Still three thousand meters?

Alex Marshall didn't know, but it did know that in some respects it had already decisively failed—when it saw the pair of eerie "wings" over twenty meters long, spreading outwards like burning flames, behind its "creator."

The upward thrust stopped at that moment, and in the instant that the upward thrust and the downward gravity reached equilibrium, Alex saw one of his eyes again: an eye that had lost its luster, and this was the last thing it could see.

Under the God's relentless energy output, the suddenly closed wings burned everything inside except themselves to ashes, leaving not even a trace.

When the wings spread again, Lin Yi suddenly raised his head and looked up at the higher sky with the only eye that could capture information.

"what is that?"

Based on known intelligence, there is a 97.3% probability that it is a nuclear bomb.

"Has it started reacting yet?"

No signs of reaction were found.

"Then can we stop?"

[91.8%]

With a flap of its wings once more, leaving an almost distorted passage in the sky, the figure appeared beside the continuously falling warhead and issued the command: "God, world transfer."

The Manhattan virus outbreak ended in a bizarre way. Although many claimed to have seen the monster fly into the sky and disappear, these claims were largely dismissed as rumors. According to the few survivors, the United States paid a heavy price to kill the source of the virus, then spent considerable time clearing out the other infected in Manhattan, finally bringing peace back to the city. As for the disappearance of the source and the dropping of nuclear bombs?

How could a free and democratic America do such a heinous thing!

And so, this horrific disaster gradually faded with time, and perhaps only those who experienced it firsthand can still feel the lingering fear...

In contrast to this major news, there was another little-known rumor: a company called "Blackwatch" had established itself in the area where the source of the virus was supposedly eliminated, designating the entire area as a military restricted zone to prevent anyone from approaching, and quickly building facilities to block satellite observation. No one knew what they were researching, only that many excavators were driven into the area in those days, and that occasional gunshots were heard.

Intelligent Conservation: Chapter 102 The Rose Mother

If we were to ask what Rize Tedeza is most concerned about lately, besides the addition of a new junior named Cocoa Hoto at Rabbit House, it would probably be that strange customer who comes to the store at a fixed time every day.

Actually, I don't care that much. To describe it, it's more like seeing a strange person wearing winter clothes on a summer street.

The specific cause dates back to half a month ago. On that day, this strange customer entered Rabbit House and ordered quite a lot of things. At first, Rize Tenzue thought he was going to treat someone, but after she saw the strange customer taste a small bite of every dish that was served to him, she quickly realized that she was wrong - even the most rude person would not treat someone to food they have already eaten, especially in a coffee shop.

If it were only this level, Rize Tensei wouldn't care so much. After all, the world is so big, it's not incomprehensible that there would be one or two people with personalities different from ordinary people. However, when she presented the dessert to this strange customer, she clearly saw the strange customer frowning as he was enjoying the cake.

"Don't you like sweets?"

"Rize-chan?"

"Oh, sorry, I'll be right there."

After the coffee shop's busy period ended, Rize Tetsuza, who was strolling around chatting, suddenly remembered the previous customer and subconsciously asked Cocoa Hoto in front of her, "Cocoa, if someone dislikes sweets, would you still go out of your way to meet them?"

"Eh……"

Although she didn't quite understand the point of the question, Hoto Cocoa still thought for a moment and replied, "Generally speaking, no, like Rize-chan, would she go to the dentist when she has nothing to do?"

"Ugh... Don't bring this up in front of me."

"Ah ha ha……"

The question was answered, but the doubts only deepened.

As a senior waitress at Rabbit House, Rize Tenteza has met many customers. She is quite certain that the strange customer's expression when eating sweets was definitely not a positive emotion. But if sweets made him feel pain, why did she have to come into contact with him every day?

Generally speaking, it should be better to stay as far away from it as possible, right?

Lin Yi had no idea what the girl in the coffee shop downstairs was thinking. Just as she thought, Lin Yi didn't particularly like sweets. Even though he often chose high-calorie foods like chocolate as his first choice for energy intake, it didn't stop him from thinking that these cloyingly sweet things were really hard to eat.

Now, the taste has become so nauseating.

"...Is this considered a side effect?"

The whispered words received an answer, a "voice" that only the speaker could hear in their own mind.

The T-virus variant 4 drug caused mutations in some taste genes.

"If I remember correctly, I only had a portion of the feather transplanted into my spinal cord. Could this phenomenon occur without a direct infection?"

[Correct judgment]

Feeling wave after wave of nausea, Lin Yi frowned and swallowed the food in his mouth—it should have been very delicious, at least according to the reputation of this restaurant in the neighborhood, but none of that could change the fact that it only made him want to vomit.

"...Can it be repaired?"

[Since the intervention and repair rate of the "forbidden zone" virus is less than 10%, should we attempt to repair it?]

He paused, glanced at the remaining energy level on his retina, and remained silent for a long while before saying, "...No need."

I picked up the coffee on the table, forced myself to swallow the stench that smelled like rotting blood, and as I put the cup down with a frown, I unexpectedly met a curious gaze.

"..."

"..."

Realizing what she had just done, Rize Tedeza quickly bowed and said in a flustered manner, "Ah—um, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to..."

"fine."

Looking away, the girl's vaguely familiar face reminded Lin Yi of someone: "I know someone who looks a lot like you."

"...Huh? That person is now 1侕霖san<（:二）邻泣} is 芭?群·聊..."

"Now?"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yi smiled and said, "They're probably living happily somewhere."

—If there is such a thing as heaven.

----------segmentation----------

After leaving the coffee shop, Lin Yi stopped his futile search for edible food, as he had done for the past two weeks; in fact, he had given up. If he really wanted to find food that would taste "delicious" like a normal human, then given the current state of the Seventh Ghoul world, human flesh and blood would be the only option.

Unfortunately, although Lin Yi has done countless things that are even more "heinous" than cannibalism in terms of human morality, he really doesn't want to go to that level. It's not that he can't accept it, but that he's unwilling to.

If he really did end up like those ghouls, unable to survive without eating people, he would still eat them. However, perhaps because he wasn't fully infected with the ghoul virus, although his sense of taste had mutated like that of ghouls, he could still digest other foods and obtain energy from them. He simply couldn't taste the "deliciousness" of them.

Moreover, Lin Yi had something even more important to resolve than that…

On the way back, I bumped into Hanasaka Yui, who lived upstairs, and greeted her. Just like the previous two weeks, I went straight to the innermost bedroom after entering the apartment. Using my still somewhat rusty telekinesis, I moved the trigger bomb behind the bedroom door and stepped inside. What greeted my eyes was a dazzling seven-colored light...

"Rose Mystica"

After staring blankly at the seven-colored crystal floating in mid-air for a while, Lin Yi exhaled and reached out to grab it in his hand. He then sat down again in front of the workshop filled with various props: "God, begin the 1542nd test."

Intelligent Conservation: Chapter 103 Aftermath

The saying "When God closes a door, He opens a window" is a beautiful one, but in reality, when God closes a door, He not only doesn't open a window, He might even close the window you've already opened as well.

For Lin Yi at least, the "forbidden zone" virus represents that door, and his own body is that window.

In terms of increasing combat power alone, the "Forbidden Zone" virus did not live up to Lin Yi's expectations at all, and could even be said to have far exceeded Lin Yi's estimates.

This revolutionary drug, developed by combining four variant templates of the T-virus, can push a person's potential to its limit, or even far exceed that limit. However, exceeding the limit does not lead to transcendence and evolution, but rather to a despairing self-destruction.

Under the calculations of the main god, Lin Yi, in his gene state, had all four basic attributes, including his mental attribute, exceeding 1000—more than 100 times that of an ordinary person.

That kind of power can smash a building with a single punch, run at supersonic speed with a single kick, generate sound waves with a single roar, and even, through partial transplantation of the ghoul virus, allow one to fly freely at subsonic speeds in areas below 5000m altitude using the winged form. However, this superhuman power comes at a price.

"Permanent consumption of genes... I've heard of consuming flesh and blood, consuming lifespan, and consuming the soul, but this is the first time I've heard of consuming genes."

Looking through his left eye at this pitch-black "world," Lin Yi, having failed his 1542nd test, leaned back in his chair.

Gene depletion—that's the price to pay for opening the "forbidden zone."

Following the principle of energy conservation, the production of any energy requires the consumption of other substances or energy. Human movement consumes food, machinery consumes energy, and T-virus infected individuals cannibalizing people is also a form of energy intake. However, the "forbidden zone" consumes genes.

The various genes that combine a bunch of cells to form the appearance of a "human" and generate the consciousness of a "human".

The entire human genome has approximately 2.91 Gpb and more than 39000 genes. To open the "forbidden zone," a portion of these genes needs to be randomly extracted and burned as "fuel" to generate "energy" to strengthen the genes that were not burned.

Perhaps we should consider ourselves lucky?

When the "forbidden zone" was first opened in World Six, Lin Yi had the genetic fragments that made up his left eye burned. As a result, even though there was nothing wrong with the structure of his left eye, he could no longer see anything. Lin Yi later asked the Main God if his vision could be restored through transplantation, but the answer he received was despair.

The host's genes no longer contain the genes related to the 'left eye,' so even if the most intact limb were replaced, it would have no effect.
