Oscar asked in a faint voice, "What do you know?"
Selena met his gaze and replied, "I know everything about the underground city incident, except for
Callum's role in it."
Oscar's calm expression showed a hint of surprise.
The underground city virus incident can be seen as an extension of the Arctic laboratory.
Therefore, generally speaking, those who were involved in the underground city incident must have
also participated in the operation to destroy the Arctic laboratory.
And those who have been to the Arctic laboratory have no reason not to know about the "Light of God".
Unless...
Oscar thought of a possibility and asked, "How old are you?"
Selena remained silent for a moment before telling the truth, "One year younger than Selena."
The Turner family massacre happened twenty years ago.
However, the underground city virus outbreak occurred seven years ago.
At that time, Oscar was already in a vegetative state.
Therefore, Oscar may not be able to guess her identity at the moment.
But once he figures out what happened during the underground city incident, based on her age and
Black Crow and White Crow, he will definitely know who she is.
This statement was equivalent to revealing her identity openly to Oscar.
Oscar was slightly shaken.
He did not expect that this girl in front of him was so young.
She was one year younger than Selena, which meant that she might not even have been thirteen years
old when the underground city virus outbreak occurred.
Thirteen years old, still a child, yet involved in the underground city incident...
Oscar's gaze deepened slightly for a moment, but he did not continue to inquire about Selena's identity.
He shifted his gaze and spoke softly, "Twenty years ago, a storm occurred in the polar ocean. After the
storm passed, a large number of human bodies were found on the coast."
"Afterwards, the police in H Country sent people to investigate the cause, but all of them disappeared.
Only one person risked their life to send out a message."
"Somebody had built a huge laboratory in the far north, dedicated to researching human genetic
experiments."
"My younger brother was the most outstanding virus expert in the country at that time. My father
ordered him to lead a team to Arctic laboratory to save people and destroy the laboratory."
"My younger brother led a group of people to the laboratory. Although the process of destroying it was
dangerous, it was also successful. However, just as they were preparing to leave after accomplishing
their mission, they accidentally discovered another experiment that was hidden deeper and was even
more dangerous."
Selena listened intently.
Oscar's eyes revealed a cold sneer, "Today, humans have created airplanes that can travel thousands Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
of miles in a day, submarines that can dive into the depths of the ocean, towering buildings that can
withstand thunderstorms and heavy rain, and scientific and technological advances that can conquer
any obstacle..."
"Especially for those who wield strong power and authority, the easily attainable fame and fortune are
no longer enough. Compared to material and spiritual enjoyment, they pursue something else."
A sudden inspiration flashed through Selena's mind, and she grasped onto a suffocating idea.
Oscar's tone became increasingly cold, "The desire to achieve immortality, to escape the control of
fate, and to master the divine technique that can make the god of death retreat..."
"They named that experiment 'Light of God.'"
Selena suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with shock and her skin covered in goosebumps.
She wanted to say that it was impossible!
But then she remembered her "death and resurrection" and how her denial had been caught in her
throat.
Oscar looked at her. "Incredible, isn't it?"
Selena suppressed her emotions and tried to remain calm. "The secret to keeping humans young is to
maintain cell activity..."
Oscar shook his head. "No, those lunatics believe that the human soul is a type of energy that can be
cut. As long as they find the right balance, they can cut out an old, decrepit soul and place it into a
young and beautiful body, achieving the true meaning of a 'miracle.'"
Selena's breath caught in her throat, and her heart was filled with a deep, ocean-like fear.
Death is the ultimate gift that heaven has bestowed upon all living beings, the only true fairness.
But when the day comes where even this greatest of equalizers is no more, what will happen to the
human world?
The old and decrepit souls that should have returned to the dust will crawl out of hell once again.
Criminals will change their skin and continue to wreak havoc.
Young and beautiful people will become tools for others to evaluate and assess, with no dreams or
sense of self.
Those in power will trample upon the exploited without any restraint, completely shattering the societal
laws of equality and freedom that took humanity five thousand years to build.
No one will fear death anymore... and humanity will eventually be doomed.
It's too amazing!
She finally understood the meaning behind the words that person said before he died!
Selena shivered and her voice became icy cold. "How many people who participated in the 'Light of
God' experiment in Arctic laboratory are still alive?"
From the girl's eyes, Oscar saw a ruthless determination to decide life and death.
He knew that once those people fell into the hands of this girl, they would have no way out but death.
Oscar exhaled slowly. "Fortunately, when my younger brother and his team discovered the experiment,
'Light of God' had not been completely successful yet."
"You are the only 'test subject' that I know of who has succeeded."
As for the person who used 'Light of God' to give Selena a new lease of life, she would have to find that
out for herself. Once she found that person, the remaining people from that time would naturally be
uprooted.
Selena lowered her eyelids and remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "Thank you."
Oscar watched her turn and head upstairs and whispered, "The Turner family suffered a tragedy
because of 'Light of God'. If you ever get your hands on that thing, do not hesitate to destroy it."
"I will," Selena replied, her footsteps pausing briefly before she entered her room.
...
At the same time, Osvaldo, who had recently left the Turner family, suddenly turned around and looked
in the direction of the Turner family mansion.
Lady Lauren watched her son's movements and began to mutter bitterly again, "Honey, how did our
son go from being married to a single young man who's about to get engaged?"
The contrast was quite significant.
Benjamin glanced at Osvaldo and said, "Who made him so useless? It's been so long, and that Turner
girl still hasn't shown any signs of being pregnant."
If she had a child, then there would be no need to worry about Oscar anymore.
Lady Lauren held back her temper and couldn't help but criticize her husband. "If our son really does
this, he might be able to get married sooner, but when Callum returns, he might not even be able to call
himself a man anymore..."
Although it had been almost 20 years, no one could forget that man with the gentle smile and the
formidable methods.
