After taking control of the cockpit, Qin Tian began his slaughter.He held Jiela's main vine with one hand, continuously infusing it with an inducing toxin.Inside the ventilation ducts, the emerald green vines wriggled like living creatures. Jiela's main vine trembled slightly in Qin Tian's palm, and dark green toxin flowed along the vine, condensing into tiny dew drops on its surface."Begin," Qin Tian whispered.In an instant, tens of thousands of vine tendrils trembled simultaneously! The branch vines lurking in the ventilation system, like awakened venomous snakes, began to spray deadly toxic mist into every cabin.In a metal corridor, a Xingdao (Star Pirates) who was loading bullets into a magazine suddenly coughed violently. He confusedly wiped his mouth, only to see his palm covered in black blood."I... cough cough... how..."His pupils suddenly constricted, and his skin turned grayish-blue at a visible rate. A dozen or so companions around him simultaneously collapsed to the ground; some painfully clawed at their throats, their fingernails tearing off large chunks of flesh; others bled from all seven orifices, their eyeballs melting in their sockets.Only three Xingdao (Star Pirates) wearing filter masks stood frozen, their faces under the masks ashen.In the Blood Arena, Flag stood on the central platform, his gaze constantly sweeping around.Behind him stood hundreds of fully armed Xingdao (Star Pirates), the humming of plasma rifles charging up rising and falling, everyone staring intently at every entrance to the arena, awaiting any potential enemies.Suddenly—"Cough... cough cough...."A Xingdao (Star Pirates) standing to Flag's right suddenly bent over, coughing violently. He instinctively covered his mouth, but sticky black blood seeped through his fingers, dripping onto the metal floor with a corrosive sizzling sound."Hey! What's wrong with you—"His companion beside him was about to reach out to help him when he saw the man suddenly fall to his knees, making suffocating sounds from his throat. His skin turned grayish-blue at a visible rate, the whites of his eyes quickly became covered in black blood vessels, and then, black blood began to seep from all seven orifices!"Bang!"The man fell heavily to the ground, his body twitching a few times before falling silent.Flag's pupils constricted, and before he could give an order, painful groans erupted one after another around him."Ah—my throat....""Save... save me......""Cough cough cough... Ugh—"Like falling dominoes, one Xingdao (Star Pirates) after another began to cough up blood and collapse.Some clawed at their throats, their fingernails tearing open skin and flesh, revealing blackened blood vessels underneath; some knelt on the ground, vomiting black blood mixed with fragments of internal organs; others frantically tore open their protective gear, as if something inside them was scorching their internal organs......In a blink of an eye, nearly a hundred people had fallen around Flag.What!!Flag's pupils constricted, his expression changing in horror.What on earth is going on?"Poison! It's poison gas!" a Xingdao (Star Pirates) shouted in collapse, "The ventilation system! The poison gas is coming from the ventilation system!"The surviving Xingdao (Star Pirates) retreated in terror; some frantically put on filter masks, while others directly tore off cloth to cover their mouths and noses. But what was even more despairing was that those wearing masks also began to show symptoms of coughing up blood!Flag suddenly turned his head to look at the ventilation outlet. Under the capture of his spiritual power, he did indeed detect an anomaly in the air. However, what he couldn't understand was why some people died from the poison while others, like him, had no reaction.Arena, execution room, combat preparation area...Xingdao (Star Pirates) fell one by one, and fear spread like a plague throughout the spaceship. Among the thousands of Xingdao (Star Pirates) inside the spaceship, at least 30% or more died from this wave of poison gas attack.These Xingdao (Star Pirates) were basically Spiritual Energy User or Esper; some had very poor talent, while others possessed special bloodlines or abilities.On the system panel, evolution points soared rapidly. At the same time, white, green, blue—talent orbs of various colors penetrated the metal cabin walls, swarming in as if summoned by some force, and drilled into Qin Tian's body."Ugh—"Qin Tian suddenly grunted, kneeling on one knee. He had never before received dozens of talent orbs at once. After the orbs entered, his body reacted violently, strange patterns appearing on his skin, sometimes fiery red like flames, sometimes icy blue like frost. These talents rampaged through his meridians, repelling each other, causing violent energy conflicts."Damn, it still happened."He had long anticipated this scenario: when the number of hunted creatures reached a certain level, various talent orbs entering the body could very likely lead to conflicts between talents.But even with anticipation, this could not be avoided."I can only endure it."Qin Tian gritted his teeth.Just then, a familiar electronic voice suddenly echoed in his mind."Warning! Multiple talent conflicts detected.""Talent Recycle Bin—activated."In his mind, next to the hundreds of talent orbs, a trash can-shaped icon slowly appeared.At the same time, a stream of information merged into his consciousness."Talent Recycle Bin."Qin Tian's eyes burst with surprise.The Talent Recycle Bin, as its name suggests, allows talent orbs that are temporarily deemed worthless to be thrown into the recycle bin. Afterward, if the talent is truly useless, it can be melted down into evolution points. If it is deemed valuable, it can also be moved out of the recycle bin and re-integrated with the body.The emergence of the Talent Recycle Bin solved the huge problem of multiple talent conflicts, both now and in the future."Recycle, recycle, recycle all."Qin Tian threw all the newly acquired talent orbs into the recycle bin. After everything settled down, he would carefully study these talents and select some valuable, high-potential ones.After the talents were recycled, the energy conflict within his body immediately disappeared, and Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief."I'm fine now, and next, you're all going to be finished."Qin Tian rubbed his hands together, and just as he was about to unleash a massacre, a Soul Imprint sensation suddenly began to rapidly fade.That was—Karl! This is bad!Qin Tian's expression changed. Two minutes ago, "Beep beep beep."Inside the laboratory, a piercing alarm sounded."Imperial warships incoming! All personnel prepare for combat!"What, Imperial warships are here!All the researchers' faces changed dramatically, panic and fear flooding their hearts.They knew very well what a harsh judgment the Empire would pass on them once it learned of the experiments they had conducted.Karl's eyes flashed; the Imperial warships had indeed arrived.Perfect, he had long been dissatisfied with the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates' rudimentary experimental environment. If he could enter the Empire's research institute and conduct experiments with the Empire's vast resources, he would be willing, even if his personal freedom was restricted.Furthermore, if he could establish himself within the Imperial research institute, it would also be a good thing for his master.The status, resources, and power possessed by a top scientist were even comparable to high-ranking officials in the military or other fields.Karl walked to the central control panel, closed the laboratory door, and then turned to the researchers and said:"The Imperial warships are here, and the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates are finished. But as scientific researchers, we still have a way out. Immediately clean up the laboratory and back up all data. Perhaps this data can save our lives.""Yes!"Hearing this, the researchers seemed to grasp at a lifeline and quickly followed Karl's instructions.Karl watched the bustling scene with a slight nod.In fact, he had already backed up all the data and information, but to make the surrender seem more reasonable, he had made such arrangements."Dr. Karl."Just then, the female researcher behind him leaned over and whispered:"Are you planning to betray the leader and defect to the Empire?"Karl frowned and snapped:"What do you mean betray? The leader and I are merely in a cooperative relationship, there's no—Pfft!"Before he could finish speaking, Karl's head separated from his body, his bulging eyes filled with intense shock.Blood gushed out. The bloody and brutal scene before them stunned the other researchers, leaving them standing frozen in place. "Those who betray the leader must die!"The female researcher's previously meek face now became incredibly cold. She gripped a silver scalpel, pale yellow supernatural energy swirling around the blade, and killing intent flickered in her distinct black and white pupils.Swish swish swish! The scalpel cut a cold silver arc through the air, moving so fast its trajectory was almost invisible.The next second—All the researchers' movements suddenly froze. Their pupils slightly constricted, and an extremely thin line of blood quietly appeared on their throats.The bloodline slowly widened, then "Splat—!"Blood spurted out like a fountain, splashing onto the white walls and precise instruments, the glaring crimson painting a cruel picture in the laboratory.The female researcher expressionlessly retracted the scalpel, blood drops falling from the blade creating tiny dark marks on the floor. Her eyes were cold, as if the recent slaughter was merely a trivial matter like brushing away dust.Just then, the female researcher's nerves suddenly tensed, a cold killing intent assailing her from behind like a venomous snake.She spun around abruptly, her pupils constricting—A stern-faced man had appeared behind her at some unknown point, so close she could almost feel his breath. His eyes were as sharp as knife blades, and the chilling killing intent was almost solidified."You—.."Her voice had not yet fallen—Bang!The man's fist, like a meteor, pierced through the air, instantly punching through her chest. Flesh and blood exploded, bones shattered, and her body was violently blasted with a bloody hole by the furious force.The female researcher looked down, disbelievingly at the huge empty hole in her chest, blood gushing down like a waterfall.Her lips trembled, as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately, her eyes quickly dimmed, and her body fell heavily like a broken puppet.The man slowly retracted his fist, shaking off the blood, then stared intently at the corpse on the ground.Karl's deformed large head had separated from his body, his wide-open eyes still frozen in an expression of disbelief.Seeing this, Qin Tian's fists clenched, grinding audibly, and he was consumed by rage.Karl was a talent he valued highly, his importance no less than Li Qi and Feng Mocuan, the two original Night Demons.According to his plan, after the mission was over, he would mass-produce the youth potion developed by Karl, thereby creating immense wealth. Besides that, Karl's other research, the super-soldier serum, also held great promise.Moreover, Karl could also use this opportunity to infiltrate the Imperial Biological Research Institute, and perhaps develop more valuable scientific achievements in the future, bringing him greater benefits.However, all of this was ruined by this woman before him.He hadn't anticipated that the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates' leader would have an informant arranged beside Karl, and that she would act so decisively, directly chopping off Karl's head, giving him no chance to heal or compensate.What a pity. Qin Tian sighed deeply, preparing to leave and continue his slaughter of the Xingdao (Star Pirates).However—Buzz!A strange psychic fluctuation suddenly rippled through the laboratory, and the air seemed to instantly freeze.Qin Tian snapped his head up, his pupils constricting.He saw a wisp of eerie blue misty energy slowly float out from Karl's severed head, twisting and surging, as if pulled by some invisible force, gradually solidifying into a form."This is—?!"The eerie blue mist trembled violently, as if struggling, roaring, and finally—"Hiss—!!!"A sharp, non-human shriek suddenly exploded, the mist twisted wildly, and in an instant, it transformed into a translucent phantom.A withered, skeletal body, tattered scholar's robes billowing without wind, and two eerie blue ghost fires burning in its hollow eye sockets, like a malevolent spirit crawling out of hell!Qin Tian's breath hitched.After death, mental energy should dissipate into the world.But perhaps Karl's resentment and unwillingness before death were too strong, or perhaps it was his unique brain development, coupled with the catalysis of the Soul Imprint, that caused his spirit to mutate, transforming him into a unique undead!"Meow—..—·——"The undead Karl slowly raised his skeletal hand, eerie blue flames dancing wildly around him, and the laboratory's temperature instantly dropped to freezing point.His "gaze" first fell on the female researcher's corpse, then looked at Qin Tian, squeezing out a hoarse whisper from his throat:"Is this my new body?"Karl felt the cold energy surging within him, and suddenly, a strange smile appeared on his skeletal face."So this is what it feels like to die and be reborn, Master. Do you think this counts as a ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) different form of immortality?""Hmm, I suppose so."Qin Tian narrowed his eyes, watching the undead Karl floating in mid-air.Unexpectedly, this mad scientist seemed to adapt to his new form extremely quickly—even from that hoarse whisper, Qin Tian could detect a hint of distorted excitement."As expected of a madman with a distorted brain."Qin Tian murmured, "He can even enjoy himself after death."Although Karl could no longer infiltrate the Imperial Research Institute, his survival as an evil spirit opened up new possibilities for his value. More importantly—the Netherworld Ghost Pact finally had a use!Qin Tian raised his hand, and a dark rune appeared in his palm, its lines wriggling like a living thing, emitting a chilling aura. He gazed at Karl, and said in a deep voice:"Karl, since you are no longer among the living, then sign another ghost pact with me."Eerie blue ghost fires flickered in Karl's eye sockets. He slowly turned his head: "A contract? Heh—interesting."Qin Tian stopped wasting words, and the rune in his palm suddenly burst forth with dazzling black light!"By the Netherworld as witness, the Soul Imprint—established!"In an instant, countless pitch-black chains shot out from the rune, coiling around Karl's spirit body. Eerie blue flames and black chains intertwined, emitting a piercing shriek. Karl did not resist; instead, he spread his arms, allowing the power of the contract to invade his soul body.Seconds later, the chains suddenly contracted, transforming into a stream of light and merging into Qin Tian's body.At the same time, the Netherworld Ghost Pact on his chest felt slightly warm, and a pitch-black vortex slowly unfolded before him, emitting a chilling suction."Come in," Qin Tian said faintly, "this will be your new home. Within the Ghost Pact, your strength will rapidly increase."Karl let out a low laugh, his form transforming into an eerie blue stream of light, and he plunged directly into the vortex.Qin Tian felt the newly added cold energy within his body, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth."Ghost Scientist—heh, that's a good start.""However, since you have died and been reborn in a new form, why not change your name? What do you think of the name Kael'thas?"Within his chest, the cold energy subtly fluctuated."I like this name. From today onwards, I am—Death Singer, Kael'thas."
