Honkai: Man(Sludge) From Future

Miyuki Shirogane had always felt like there was something wrong with his research work.

He often went back to his dormitory and wondered if he had taken on some kind of incredible research job.

Sometimes, he would see some ridiculous Honkai beasts with his classmates.

Later, he went to see a different style of weird things. Those things looked like living organisms, but they actually weren't. They were more like strange tumors that could autonomously secrete and replicate a special type of genetic information.

All of these things seemed to be related to a woman named Cocolia.

Cocolia, one of the directors of the Academy City.

She was one of the women who held supreme power in this area within a few dozen square kilometers.

But the things she brought for the students to see always felt strange.

For example, this strange living organism?

'Is this thing really considered a living organism?'

'Why am I responsible for taking care of this thing? Don't ordinary students have human rights? I just did a little better on the exams, so why do I have to suffer like this?'

Miyuki Shirogane had wondered more than once if he had entered some strange research institute.

But he didn't have any other choice, especially after he had seen the research institute take out so many 'Stigmata battlesuits'.

He knew that he had no way of escaping and had completely become a laborer for this new institute.

'One day, I'll be finished because I know too much…'

Miyuki Shirogane sighed and looked up at the relevant information on the screen.

The only thing he knew was that this thing could create a special genetic medicine that could change human skin, and this thing was what had caused all the commotion in North America.

'If those North Americans knew that the medicine they were using was made with this thing…'

'The people of America are so pitiful.'

'But seriously, can this thing really change skin color?'

Miyuki Shirogane felt a little curious. He thought that this thing should be very precious, but he didn't know why it was just placed there, allowing him, a student, to come and check on it every day.

What was the difference between this and placing it out in broad daylight?

He didn't see any special protection other than surveillance, and they didn't even have the idea of burying it underground.

Clearly, the 'tumor' that could change human skin color was not considered a thing that could get lost.

Thinking about this, Miyuki Shirogane thought about the battle alerts about the Honkai attacks outside.

He was just hiding in the research institute, with no need to take any action.

This made Miyuki Shirogane feel a bit ashamed.

"If only I had the power to fight, I wouldn't just be sitting here doing nothing."

"That's not a good thing, though."

The sudden voice startled Miyuki Shirogane, and when he followed the voice, he saw someone who seemed to have been sitting there all along.

The person was wearing glasses, a research white coat, and on the coat was the mark of the Anti-Entropy Research Institute and his name.

[Welt Yang]

'Strange, I don't remember ever hearing that name.'

"Don't worry, I'm one of the investors in this research institute. A lot of the assets inside belong to me."

Yang was generous in his speech, causing Brother Shirogane to gasp.

His openness made Miyuki Shirogane even more nervous.

"How come I haven't seen you?" Miyuki Shirogane carefully asked, looking at Teacher Yang's very friendly face.

"Don't worry. Even the most famous Dr. Tesla in the Academy City used to work for me. Cocolia is also someone on the same level as Dr. Tesla. I've come here to observe the situation of the Great Honkai. If there are no accidents, Dr. Tesla will control the Honkai fission and have it explode above Nagazora City."

"She will vaporize all of the Honkai energy nearby."

Welt Yang didn't dare say that he could definitely beat the current Tesla.

Not only could Tesla create a Moonlight Throne out of thin air, but she also knew how to use physical effects to induce Honkai fission.

The Honkai fission bombs that killed Reanna and Welt Joyce were things like that.

As a Herrscher, Teacher Yang couldn't understand why Tesla was so ridiculously strong.

This even made Teacher Yang consider asking Noldrei to modify his body.

But he gave up on this terrifying idea with his strong conviction. At least he didn't want to become a Teletubby. That sacrifice was too great.

"The Stigmata battlesuits, those things are the result of my modifications. Considering that we work for the same group, you can call me Teacher Yang."

Miyuki Shirogane heard a hint of pride in his voice, but he didn't know what Teacher Yang was so proud of.

He didn't know that Teacher Yang had won over the person in charge of the Academy City in the matter of aesthetic trends, successfully preventing the students and security guards of the Academy City from having to wear weird skins to fight the Honkai. He had also saved the last of the aesthetic sense of those Valkyries.

Although Overseer Otto and Noldrei mocked him for this, Teacher Yang insisted on preserving the visual health of the students.

"Teacher Yang, what exactly is this thing? Why does it look like a living organism to me?"

Miyuki Shirogane glanced at that thing, and it did seem to have a subtle pulsation.

That was what made him the most uneasy.

"What kind of existence do you think can produce the corresponding genetic information? I think it either needs the power of the cells, or the relevant part of the reproductive organs, right?"

"It's like humans producing eggs and sperm, this thing can also produce genetic information that suits human needs."

Yang was also researching this thing that had fallen from Noldrei. In Yang's view, Noldrei wouldn't actively reproduce, but he could create biological organs and tissues that had reproductive capabilities.

The effects that this thing had were much more convenient than if he were to maintain human reproduction himself.

"This thing? Isn't it more like a virus?" Miyuki Shirogane thought this thing was more like a kind of organized living virus.

"It is, you should have learned about related things, right? There are all kinds of coexisting viruses in the human body. They either weaken or are latent in the body. Do you know how much research value this piece of 'meat' has?"

Teacher Yang observed this piece of meat tissue. He couldn't believe that Cocolia had brought it back in a plastic bag.

"Value?"

Miyuki Shirogane hadn't directly understood the value of genetic currency, but this kind of gene polymer tissue had all of the characteristics of genetic currency.

"It can change human skin color, and harmlessly modify human protein molecules or gene fragments at a set point. What can this power bring?"

Teacher Yang looked at this small piece of meat with a complicated expression and sighed, "It can further our understanding of targeted cancer treatments, improve human cellular molecular research projects, and has supreme importance for promoting the treatment of all human diseases."

Miyuki Shirogane was shocked and became even more confused by Teacher Yang's attitude.

'With such an awesome thing, why aren't you guys hiding it in an aseptic basement dozens of meters underground, but just letting me, a high school student, take care of it?'

'No wonder the teachers of the Academy City aren't afraid of the students trying to die. This technology has a gap of almost a hundred years compared to the outside world, right?'

Miyuki Shirogane had been living in normal human society for the past half year. Now, he was suddenly being told that someone was running into the stage of cancer treatment. Whoever you told this to would be completely dumbfounded.
