Survival Arena-Chapter 398 - : Survival of the Fittest, Resigned to Death
Chapter 398: Chapter 398: Survival of the Fittest, Resigned to Death
Inside the laboratory.
Chu Ge began his cautious operation, first connecting the workstation to the nuclear containment device, then slowly opening the containment device.
Doctor Whitebeard stood at the entrance, warning, “Be extremely careful, you cannot afford any mistakes, the fate of humanity is in you…”
Before he could finish, a leopard paw pressed against his face, pulling him out.
“Brother, you got this!”
The voice of “I am God” came through.
Chu Ge didn’t look back, his attention focused on the workstation’s virtual keyboard.
Sorcerer Cat hesitated at the door for a moment but chose to leave in the end.
It was still pondering the secret of evolution that Chu Ge possessed.
It felt a lump in its heart.
Very annoyed!
Very frustrated!
But it couldn’t find a reason to vent at Chu Ge.
After all, Chu Ge hadn’t schemed against it; it was simply not strong enough and had been killed by the beast.
Boom——
Suddenly, a loud noise erupted from inside the lab, and a steel door fell, blocking the entrance. The floor began to shake violently, as though an earthquake was striking.
The nuclear containment device in front of the workstation began to spin, whirling like a high-speed flying saucer, producing a whooshing sound.
A strong wind blew, making Chu Ge’s mane flutter like blazing flames.
Chu Ge frowned.
The wind was getting stronger, and ordinary people could hardly withstand it, let alone the nuclear radiation.
Chu Ge took a deep breath and continued his operation.
The walls of the laboratory suddenly lit up, and the four walls were different colors: blue, white, green, and gold.
The interweaving of the four kinds of light made the laboratory seem magical.
Chu Ge grew tense.
The nuclear containment device was spinning faster and faster, the ring seeming to expand, growing larger and larger.
Chu Ge worried he might get slashed; he tensed his muscles.
Outside the laboratory, the Survivors glanced at the sealed steel door and began to discuss among themselves.
“Is that guy up for it?”
“Wait, if this continues, won’t he be the one conquering the world? What does that have to do with us?”
“Do you have any better ideas, can you open it?”
“No way, it’s too complicated. The Lion memorized it for most of the day, and even if we try to memorize it now, we wouldn’t make it in time.”
“We have no choice then, at least we helped him fend off the Bright Organization. By rights, we should be credited in the conquest of the world.”
“I am God” furrowed his brows deeply, pondering something.
At the end of the corridor, there were no human warriors, as if the Bright Organization had already canceled their orders to encircle them.
Inside the laboratory.
Chu Ge completed the first step in the operation of opening the nuclear containment device; next was to stabilize the containment device.
For some reason, he suddenly felt the wind generated by the containment device getting hotter, scraping against his skin like little knives peeling fur, causing intermittent sharp pain.
“Could it be that nuclear radiation is accumulating?”
Chu Ge thought with surprise, growing even more nervous.
This was only the beginning, what kind of scenario would unfold later?
The mere thought made him shiver.
Stabilizing the nuclear containment device was even more complicated than the previous steps; it wasn’t fixed, it changed according to the effect of the containment device. If too strong, the power needed to be reduced, if too weak, it needed to be increased, and the operational formulas for increasing and reducing were different.
Chu Ge’s gaze was locked onto the monitor, which displayed a 3D image of the nuclear containment device turning red.
Outside the laboratory, all the Survivors suddenly felt uncomfortable.
“Quick, get out of here, nuclear radiation from both underground and aboveground is converging here; the reason no one is capturing you is that everyone else has already gone into hiding!”
Huang Yukun said urgently, sweat beading on his forehead.
Not just him, but everyone else felt the same.
Their physical condition was far inferior to that of the Survivors.
“I am God” spoke in a grave voice, “Lead the way!”
Huang Yukun and others immediately began to run.
The other Survivors followed closely behind.
“I am God” looked back at the laboratory’s steel door, his eyes filled with concern.
“Is this kid up to the task?”
…
BOOM—
The howling wind generated by the high-speed rotation of the nuclear containment device was terrifying, deafening.
Tables and chairs in the laboratory shook violently, scattering papers all around.
Chu Ge gritted his teeth and persevered, his claws trembling.
The floor beneath his feet had turned red-hot.
If it weren’t for his mastery of Raging Flame Separation and strong tolerance for high temperatures, he would have been hopping mad with fear by now.
“How am I supposed to hold out until the end?”
Chu Ge regretted his decision internally, though he felt okay for now.
But given the situation, the impending danger was absolutely terrifying.
Could he end up being burned to ashes?
Just then, the voice of the Leader of the Bright Organization rang out, “Can you still hold on? It’s not too late to shut down the nuclear containment device.”
Give up?
So be it, even if it means death!
After holding on for so long, how could I just give up?
Chu Ge said through gritted teeth, “Still can… Are you afraid that my failure will endanger you all?”
“Not really. I have already ordered everyone to take cover in the protective floors. Even if you fail, it won’t have much impact on us.”
Hearing this, Chu Ge felt the pressure inside him lessen instantly.
If that’s the case, what was there to fear?
He had already endured pains beyond the imagination of ordinary people!
“Was that dolphin really you?” the Leader continued to ask.
Chu Ge replied, “Does it matter? It’s been so long.”
“It matters. My mother always wanted to find it.”
“How is your mother now?”
“She passed away ten years ago.”
Chu Ge fell silent.
He couldn’t help but remember the blonde girl he had met on the Pacific Ocean back then.
So much time had passed that Chu Ge could no longer remember her face.
But the thought of her searching for him for decades stirred an indescribable feeling in his heart.
It was unclear if it was touched or sadness.
He had simply lent a hand without any thought of repayment, yet he changed a person’s life.
“Do souls really exist after death?”
“What do you mean?”
“Perhaps my mother is still looking for you.”
“Better not.”
“When my mother adopted me, I was only five years old. She devoted most of her energy to animal research. Many people thought she was lonely, but I knew she was happy. In my memory, she never cried; she always had a smile on her face. Before she died, she said something to me.”
“What did she say?”
“Survival of the fittest, embrace death as returning home.”
Chu Ge was stunned.
Embrace death as returning home?
What does that mean?
Could it be that the blonde girl knew his identity all along?
Chu Ge furrowed his brows, deep in thought.

An alarm sounded from the workbench; Chu Ge snapped back to reality, realizing that the power was too high and needed adjusting.
He hurriedly operated the controls, but his heart couldn’t stop pondering the Leader’s mother’s words.
The Leader said softly, “I’m very curious about your identities. From what you’ve said before, it seems you became animals out of necessity, as if bound by some force. Is it the power of God? Or a higher civilization that transcends human culture?”
Chu Ge shook his head, indicating he didn’t know either.
He believed the Leader could see his gesture.
In such a large laboratory, there must be surveillance.
