Chapter 1312 God Skeleton Appears Again, Darkness Saint Region!

“How can I help?”

Sun Mo did not hesitate at all. Deep down in his bones, he was a kind person. Moreover, he was a teacher and had a natural desire to see children grow up healthily. “Join our laboratory!”

The headmaster invited Sun Mo.

After that, Sun Mo followed the headmaster into the Constellation Academy’s underground domain. It was also the most secretive core facility here. The white walls emitted coldness and loneliness, making one shudder.

“Your study of weaponsmithing, medical cultivation, botany, herbology, as well as the study of spiritual control would all be extremely helpful to us!”

The headmaster explained.

There weren’t many people in the laboratory, but they were all elites who were very tight-lipped. Otherwise, if the news of darkness ailments were to leak out, the aboriginals would definitely try to sneak back to the Nine Provinces at the first instant.

No one could face death calmly!

Therefore, when Sun Mo saw those researchers busy at work, he felt the greatest level of respect for them.

After Sun Mo was done taking a look around the experiment area, he then followed the headmaster back to the living area.

Most of the people here were children.

“Uncle!”

When the children saw the headmaster, all of them came running over. They even passed him the little birds they had folded using paper to him.

“You guys are conducting human experiments?”

Sun Mo frowned.

“They are doing this willingly!”

The headmaster sighed.

“Children haven’t developed their perspectives yet. How would they know what willingness

is?!

Sun Mo’s gaze turned serious.

“You think I want to do this? This is both an experiment as well as a bid to save lives. Otherwise, they’d have died long ago.”

The headmaster’s voice got louder. He didn’t feel good watching these children withstand pain until they died either.

Sun Mo fell silent.

“Uncle, are you feeling down?”

A little girl dressed in a white linen dress stood in front of Sun Mo. She then raised her head and blinked her big, clear, and beautiful eyes as she looked at him.

“No.”

Sun Mo tried hard to squeeze out a smile.

The little girl was very thin. Through her collar and wide sleeves, one could see many cut marks on her body.

Those were all marks left behind by the experiments.

“Uncle Sun said that one’s eyes don’t lie!”

The little girl said in a soft voice and then carefully took out a pearflower candy from her pocket, handing it to Sun Mo. “Here, I’ll give you a candy. It’s very sweet. You won’t cry after you eat it!” Sun Mo squatted down and patted the little girl on the head. “What’s your name?”

“Little Wei!”

The little girl said with a smile like a sunflower.

“Thank you for your candy!”

Sun Mo activated divine sight, but it showed “unknown target’.

As expected, when he needed the system, it would never be helpful.

Sun Mo’s plan to head home was interrupted. After packing up, he planned on staying in the laboratory

“Teacher, what happened?”

Xuanyuan Po was very anxious. His teacher’s mood didn’t feel right.

“Do you have any discomfort with your body?”

Sun Mo looked at Xuanyuan Po worriedly and then thought of Ying Baiwu. Was the reason she felt discomfort in the Darkness Continent also because she had a body defect?

“No!” Xuanyuan Po moved his neck around. “It’s very good!”

“If you feel any discomfort, you have to tell me in time!”

After giving Xuanyuan Po a few reminders, Sun Mo moved into the laboratory and started his career as an assistant.

For the entire month, he didn’t take any rest and learned the experiments’ principles and progress. If he couldn’t catch up, he didn’t have the right to be an assistant either. At the underground laboratory.

A doctor knocked on the headmaster’s door and placed a stack of reports on his table. “The results are out!”

“How was it?”

The headmaster didn’t reach for the documents. It was because he was busy solving a genetic sequence formula.

“I’ve never seen such an outstanding person before.”

The doctor was surprised but also feeling hopeful. “With Sun Mo’s help, our experiments’ progress will definitely be faster!”

“I hope so!” The headmaster smiled. “Then let Sun Mo be your assistant!”

After officially joining the experiments, Sun Mo gained the rights to come into contact with the core secrets. Doctor Bai Qiusheng then brought him to an underground cave that was under strict guard.

The headmaster’s spiritual beast was on guard here.

“This… this is a god skeleton.”

Sun Mo was shocked.

In the huge cave, there was a crystal that was over 30 meters tall, and a skeleton was sealed in it.

This skeleton’s skull was intact and it looked like it belonged to a male. It had flesh on its neck and one of its shoulders, but the rest of the body parts were just bones.

Moreover, these bones had many hairs that looked like ginseng roots. They flicked between being bright and dark, looking as though they were breathing “God skeleton?”

Bai Qiusheng opened his eyes wide and grabbed Sun Mo’s arms. “You’ve seen such a giant skeleton somewhere else?”

“En!”

Sun Mo nodded. From the size of this skeleton, it did belong to a giant.

“Where?”

Bai Qiusheng continued to ask.

Sun Mo shrugged.

“I’m sorry, I was being too presumptuous.” Bai Qiusheng knew that this thing was very precious and that someone who had possession of it would never let other people ‘touch’ it.

“There’s the profound mystery of curing darkness ailments on it?”

Sun Mo asked.

He hadn’t seen any materials related to this god skeleton before.

“Mmm, we hope to extract the genetic factors on this skeleton and inject them into the children’s bodies to replace those damaged.”

Bai Qiusheng explained.

Here, genetic factors were genes. “How’s the effect?”

After Sun Mo asked this, he saw Bai Qiusheng’s countenance turn grim as he shook his head, “They all failed!”

“Do you guys know where this came from?”

Sun Mo felt curious.

“It’s said to have been dug out from some ruins in the Saint Region!”

Bai Qiusheng wasn’t too sure either.

“Saint Region?”

Sun Mo frowned. He knew that the Darkness Continent’s most mysterious place was the Saint Region. It was because the rules there kept on changing and the environment was harsh and dangerous. Even an expert in the Saint Realm wouldn’t have many chances of survival if they were to go there.

us

That was right. The Saint Realm that was the cultivation tiers for cultivators came from the Darkness Continent’s Saint Region. It represented that the individual had the right to enter the Saint Region.

“Go ask the headmasters for concrete information.”

After Bai Qiusheng said that, he sized up Sun Mo and couldn’t help but tease, “The headmaster’s surname is also Sun. Moreover, you guys share a little resemblance. The two of you aren’t relatives, are you?”

“No!”

Sun Mo shook his head. The headmaster was a saint. He didn’t wish to let others have the impression that he was trying to claim a relationship with and curry up to the headmaster.

As for this body’s father, Sun Mo no longer had any impression of him. He only knew that the person had gone to the Darkness Continent to explore and died there.

Sun Mo’s life as an assistant began and he got very busy. When Li Luoran’s illness acted up a second time, she was sent down.

“She’s your student. Why don’t you go tell her?”

Bai Qiusheng handed over a few pages of data.

After Sun Mo read that, his face sank.

The research team predicted that Li Luoran had less than three years to live. Moreover, as her symptoms were uncommon, they hope to use her as an experimental subject to collect data.

“I understand your feelings, but it’s because of this that we have to continue progressing forward!”

Bai Qiusheng patted Sun Mo’s shoulder.

Sun Mo took a few deep breaths to calm down before squeezing out a smile and entering the ward. “Luoran, are you feeling better?”

“Teacher?”

Li Luoran, who was staring at the ceiling in a daze, immediately sat up when she saw Sun Mo. Her expression was first that of joy and then anxiety. She quickly tidied up her hair and clothing

She didn’t wish for Sun Mo to see her in a messy state.

Sun Mo stood by the bed and asked Li Luoran how she was feeling. However, the question to ask her if she was willing to be an experimental subject couldn’t come out of his mouth.

It was because becoming an experimental subject would mean that she’d have to be put through all sorts of experiments. Putting aside that it wouldn’t feel good, she might even die earlier than her expected three years.

“Teacher, I…” Li Luoran hesitated for a moment before asking, “Am I going to die soon?”

“That’s not true! Don’t think too much about it!”

Sun Mo lied.

“Teacher, I’m not a fool!”

Li Luoran looked at the surrounding environment. “If it wasn’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have the right to stay here, right?” Li Luoran was a cultivator after all, so she was clear about her own condition. Moreover, her mother had also died without any symptoms.

“Teacher, I’m actually quite happy. If I’m not sick, I probably won’t get to see you again, right?”

Li Luoran looked at Sun Mo bravely.

Previously, she felt very down that Sun Mo had left. She didn’t expect to see him again here. This also meant that this was a place that needed to be kept a secret.

“Just rest well and recover. Don’t think too much.”

Sun Mo consoled her. He couldn’t bring himself to say the thing in the end.

But just two days later, when Sun Mo came to visit Li Luoran again, she took the initiative to ask for it.

“Teacher, I want to become an experimental subject!”

This place didn’t confine the patients, so when Li Luoran saw those children, she had her own guesses.

“No matter what, I’m going to die anyway, so I might as well die a more valuable death. It’d be good if I could be of help to those children!”

Li Luoran didn’t want to die, but what could she do about that?

It wasn’t as if she could be the one to decide this.

Sun Mo didn’t agree. However, Li Luoran secretly went to find Bai Qiusheng and asked to be an experimental subject.

On the next experiment, Sun Mo saw Li Luoran lying on the hospital bed. “I… I’ll go out for a while!”

Sun Mo felt very upset.

“Go and take a look at him!”

Bai Qiusheng sighed and pleaded with Li Luoran.

“Teacher, are you feeling sad for me?”

Li Luoran followed him out and smiled. “I feel like our relationship has taken another step forward!”

“You’re a fool. We’re good friends to begin with!”

Sun Mo tried hard to smile, not wanting to reveal a sad expression.

Li Luoran pouted. (What I want isn’t to be friends. Also, actually, this is quite good. I’ll be able to see you all the time in my final days.)

In order to save Li Luoran, Sun Mo threw himself into experiments crazily. He worked harder than ever. He no longer slept and only relied on his great teacher halos to keep himself going.

Having persuaded Sun Mo a few times to rest but failed, Bai Qiusheng had no choice but to report this to Headmaster Sun.

“Do you want to die before them?”

The headmaster immediately came to look for him and spoke with a strict tone, “If you continue like this, I’ll chase you away!”

“But the experiments’ progress is too slow!”

Sun Mo pinched his forehead. “Headmaster, you might not like to hear this, but there are too few top-notch talents here. If we want to make a breakthrough earlier, there’s a need to go back to the Nine Provinces.”

“Are you sure that after those people see this set of skeletons, they’ll still spend the effort into treating the darkness ailments?”

Headmaster Sun sneered.

Who wouldn’t want to look for things that would be beneficial to their own development from something this good?

It was like how Bai Wenzhang’s research of the god skeleton was for the study of spirit runes.

“Then can I bring it back to the Central Province Academy?”.

Sun Mo felt helpless. “You should trust me,

right?”

“I trust you. I’m even willing to trust An Xinhui. But what about An Zaiyi?”

Headmaster Sun mocked, “Don’t forget, you’re not the one calling the shots now.”

Sun Mo kept quiet.

“Take a break for a few days. Something like this can’t be rushed!”

Headmaster Sun sighed and pulled Sun Mo out of the laboratory. It wasn’t as if he hadn’t thought of going to the Nine Provinces to recruit great teachers, but it was too difficult. The laboratory required major characters, but those people had their career and clans. How could they put those aside to come to the Darkness Continent?

“Uncle, look, I made clay figurines. This is daddy, mommy, and this is my child!”

Little Wei, who had gotten a lot skinnier, came running over. “Your child?”

Sun Mo was stunned.

“That’s right. Sister Luoran said that if I were to kiss the man I like, I’d be able to give birth to a child.”

Little Wei stole a glance at Sun Mo and lowered her head in embarrassment.

“It hurts a lot to give birth to a child!”

Sun Mo scared her.

“Huh? Then I won’t give birth!”

Little Wei’s face froze and she quickly shook her head. However, after waiting for a few seconds, she hesitated again. “But if it’s to give birth to Uncle’s child, I can bear with it!”

“Haha!”

Sun Mo was amused and couldn’t help but pat Little Wei’s head. “You like me? But I can’t marry you! You’re too young!”

“It’s fine even if you don’t marry me! I just want to give birth to one child!”

Little Wei’s expression was very serious. She didn’t really understand the true meaning behind getting married and giving birth to children.

“Why must you give birth to children?”

Sun Mo couldn’t understand.

“It’s because Sister Luoran said that Uncle’s children would definitely be very talented, just like Uncle. They’d be able to become amazing great teachers, teach us knowledge, and let us lead better and better lives!”

Little Wei looked at Sun Mo. “Uncle, will our children be as amazing as you are? For example… for example, being able to treat everyone’s illnesses?”

Sun Mo squatted down and hugged Little Wei, not knowing what he should say.

“Uncle!”

Little Wei put out her hands and patted Sun Mo’s back. “Why are you crying again? Uncle Bai said that crying children aren’t good children.”

“Don’t listen to his gibberish. Children should cry when they want to cry and laugh when they want to laugh!”

Sun Mo quickly wiped away his tears and carried Little Wei up. “What do you want to play? Uncle will be with you today!”

“I… I want to go to the Nine Provinces to take a look. They say that the world outside is very fun. There are clay figurines, kites, delicious nian gao[1], and tanghulus that are so sweet that one’s teeth will fall off!”

Little Wei lowered her head. “But I haven’t seen all those before!”

“Shall I bring you to Jinling today?”

This wasn’t his territory, so creating a teleportation gate here was a very bad decision. But when Sun Mo saw Little Wei’s eyes filled with anticipation, he couldn’t bear to reject her.

Hence, Sun Mo went to look for the headmaster and asked for a safe and concealed room.

Headmaster Sun wasn’t surprised that Sun Mo had the eight-gate cloud. “If you trust me, you can place the teleportation gate in my office.”

After Sun Mo left, Headmaster Sun rested his elbows on the table and crossed his arms. He then rested his chin on them and sank into deep thought.

There wasn’t much time left. Should he take the risk and gamble on this?
