Global Survival: I Got the D-Rank Personnel Simulator

The three of them passed the corner. Unlike the corridor ahead, this corridor contained only one laboratory, but the interior space of this laboratory was extremely vast, with the corridor occupying only a small part of it.

A massive golden eyeball watched them through the glass window. Even though they could only see the bottom of the eyeball, they could feel the weight of that gaze.

The aura they had sensed earlier originated from this golden eyeball.

The golden eyeball merely looked at them, not causing them any harm.

This corridor was also covered in bright golden powder. This powder coated the walls and floor, leaving not a single crack.

”...This corridor doesn’t seem to consume mutation organs.”

Bessie Pro discovered that mutation organs were no longer being consumed within her body and frowned as she spoke.

This wasn’t good news, because it meant this corridor operated under different rules.

”...Should we go through?”

Bessie asked nervously.”We have no way back. We can only pass through here.”

Lin Ye threw a mutation organ, created by alienating a biological sample, into the center of the corridor. The mutation organ underwent no change, lying quietly on the golden floor.

”Seems like there’s no problem... Wait, it seems to have turned golden. How did I not notice that just now...”

Bessie rubbed her eyes, looking at the mutation organ on the ground. She was already beginning to lose her understanding of what the color gold meant.

”...That’s more than just turning golden.”

Lin Ye unsealed the Abyssal Eye. Using the Abyssal Eye, he stared back at the golden eyeball. The mutation organ that had turned golden was also within his field of vision. He could see that the fundamental structure of the mutation organ had undergone an essential change.

The reason it turned golden was because the mutation organ had transformed into an aggregate of countless golden eyeballs. Those golden eyeballs were packed together like fish roe, staring at them.

The golden powder in the corridor was all composed of tiny golden eyeballs. This was a corridor covered in golden eyeballs.

Lin Ye used the Abyssal Eye to observe the corridor and the laboratory, discovering that inside the laboratory was a strangely shaped Phantom of an Abyssal creature.

Just as Lin Ye prepared to stare at that Abyssal creature, the golden eyeball contracted slightly. All the golden powder around them vanished, and the golden eyeball no longer looked at them.

Lin Ye also resealed the Abyssal Eye. This eyeball clearly did not want to come into contact with the Abyss, not that it feared them.

A silent agreement was reached between both sides. They could pass safely, and Lin Ye would not bring the Abyssal creature over here.

The three of them passed through the corridor. As they passed the glass window, Lin Ye saw the research report on this eyeball. It only listed the name of the research project; the remaining contents had all been cleared.

This eyeball was called: Twilight Eye.

”...Why is there another corner ahead? Please tell me the exit is right around that corner.”

Due to the impact of facing the golden eyeball, Bessie hadn’t noticed earlier that the end of the corridor was yet another corner. Now, she felt on the verge of breaking down.

”The exit might occupy its own corner. That’s usually how it’s designed.”

Lin Ye tried to deceive himself. He actually didn’t think this floor would specifically design a corner just for the exit, because earlier, only the golden eyeball had occupied an entire corridor.

”There’s no special aura ahead. Maybe it really is the exit.”

Bessie Pro was the first to pass the corner.

Lin Ye and Bessie followed, passing the corner. On the other side was a spotlessly clean Pure White Corridor. One side of the corridor held a laboratory that looked quite ordinary. Inside the laboratory was only one mutation organ stored in a glass container.

It was a very ordinary-looking human brain. The brain sat in the solution like a real specimen, devoid of biological activity, not moving, with no strange sounds around it.

The end of the corridor was a staircase leading upwards.

”What is this now? A deity’s brain? Is it sleeping? Should we sneak past now?”

Bessie spoke in an extremely small voice right next to Lin Ye’s ear.

”...This seems to be just an ordinary mutated brain, and the degree of Alienation is extremely low.”

Lin Ye observed the brain in the container with confusion. He didn’t think something appearing here would be so simple.

”It really does seem to be just an ordinary brain. I’ll go test it first.”

Bessie Pro walked to the glass window, then called them over with a complicated expression.

Lin Ye also walked to the glass window. Next to the jarred brain was its research material. Earlier, Lin Ye hadn’t dared to casually sense the situation inside the laboratory, so he hadn’t seen this material.

The information on the research material wasn’t much; it could be summarized in one sentence:

This is the brain of the last survivor of this Plane.

The owner of this brain was extremely fortunate. Even when the deity of this Plane died, even when everyone else died, he still lived, and lived to see the Plane’s destruction.

”So this was once a Plane, and now only these mutation organs remain?”

Lin Ye carefully sensed the structure of the brain. Only after confirming there was no issue did he walk towards the staircase leading upwards.

”How long are you going to stare? Do you need me to comfort you?”

Lin Ye stopped and asked, looking back.

”Huh? I’m coming right now.”

Bessie, who had been standing before the glass window, snapped out of her daze. She pulled the duplicate, who was still grinning foolishly, and ran to Lin Ye’s side.

Tears slid down her cheeks, dripping onto the ground.

”Are you sure this is just an ordinary mutated brain? Why do I feel so sad right now?”

Bessie asked, gripping the duplicate tightly.

”I know what you want, but I am not your kind, even if our appearances are similar and our names are almost the same.

I also know why you are sad, but I cannot truly empathize.”

Bessie Pro pulled out the tips inserted within the two of them and followed Lin Ye up the stairs.

”Why did you mold me in her image?”

Bessie Pro had to admit that, due to this body, she had indeed been influenced by that lower life form.

”At the time, I just happened to lack a companion with taste, and I wanted to see if you would be influenced by her. It was part of the experiment.”

Lin Ye said casually.

”Did you get your answer?”

Bessie Pro asked, somewhat troubled.

”Not yet. Is there anything you want?”

The top of the stairs was a golden door. Before pushing it open, Lin Ye asked.

”Things I want?”

Bessie Pro didn’t understand Lin Ye’s meaning.

”Anything. Wages, food, hobbies... even freedom. If you want to survive on your own, after we get out, I can make you a resident of the Free City and help you find a decent job.”

For an individual capable of independent thought like this, Lin Ye would give it a chance to make a choice.
