Skretil's Ignorance Walker

In a huge building constructed of some kind of alloy, sophisticated instruments were constantly performing various calculations. The supercomputer issued a sharp alarm, which made an old man frown.

“Do you want to stop the operation?”

A researcher reported that the old man looked at the girl in the petri dish, then looked at the people around him, and sighed helplessly.

"Stop it."

After receiving his order, the researchers and operators sitting at their seats couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As the various instruments slowly stopped, the alarm sound also stopped abruptly.

The old man turned around, sat down and picked up a cup of coffee. The loose white robe he was wearing was very different from the style of this laboratory. It seemed a bit sudden and out of place, but no one cared because the people around him who looked a little anxious were dressed the same as him.

"Finally you stopped. I thought you would wait until she died before you were willing to stop."

A sturdy man said indignantly, looking at the old man with a bit of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"Watch your words, Avanxon. You shouldn't speak to me in that tone."

The old man didn't care about the man's attitude, he just kept talking to him without turning his head. But this behavior made the man even angrier.

"What? Did I overstep my authority? 'Father God'?"

The man said jokingly, his solid muscles undulating with his movements, making him look full of vitality.

"Okay, stop talking now."

At this time, a middle-aged woman came forward and began to dissuade the two men. Just as they were talking, the door of the culture dish was opened with the sound of the air valve venting.

"Strange Love!"

Upon seeing this, the man immediately took out the towel he had prepared in advance and stepped forward to catch the weak girl who walked out of the petri dish.

"Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Brother, I'm fine..."

The girl leaned weakly in the man's arms, but she still pretended to be strong and wanted to walk by herself. Finally, after some stumbling, she came to the old man.

"Sorry, Father God, I failed again..."

Looking at the girl's self-blaming expression and weak body, the man felt more and more angry in his heart.

"This is none of your business. You've worked very hard. Go and have a good rest."

"Well, I'm fine. I can continue the experiment..."

Faced with the man's concern, the girl shook her head and continued to speak to the old man, but this time the other two also rejected her proposal.

"Your body has been overdrawn too much. Take a good rest. Don't be so anxious. We have plenty of time. After all, we have been conducting experiments for hundreds of years. Although we have always failed, fortunately we have you as our only success. If something happens to you again, it will be a serious loss for us."

The old man said in a calm tone. He didn't even look in the direction of the girl. He just leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.

"……Yes."

After hearing what the old man said, the girl had no choice but to give up. She lowered her head and planned to leave in disappointment. Seeing this, the man immediately stepped forward to support her.

"Let me help you back to your room."

"Well, thank you, brother."

The man helped the girl leave. As they watched them leave, the woman who had been standing nearby sat down opposite the old man.

"This experiment has failed again."

"Yeah... Why on earth is that? All the parameters are the same as last time, but why did it still fail? Was that really a miracle?"

The old man opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling. He didn’t understand why there was already a successful case but why it could not be replicated. What went wrong?

The woman opposite saw the old man's expression and smiled gently.

“Maybe it really is a miracle. Even though we have already regarded ourselves as gods, we are still just immature explorers of the mysteries of life.”

But when he heard her words, the old man slammed the table in excitement.

"Impossible! Everything in the universe has a traceable path. No matter how complicated something is, it can be broken down into basic formulas. I don't believe in so-called miracles. One day, the experiment will succeed and be stably replicated. At that time... our family's obsession can finally be put down."

"Oh, by the time your so-called ideal comes true, I'm afraid Qiai Ai will have been ruined by you, right?!"

The old man had just finished speaking when the man who had just sent the girl back to her room came over again. Hearing what the old man said, he sneered with disdain.

"Avanxon, you've also experienced a great disaster, don't you understand me at all?"

Seeing the man coming to cause trouble for him again, the old man said this time with some displeasure, and the former showed no intention of restraining himself.

"I understand, of course I understand, but what you are doing now is too dangerous. We have finally gained a foothold on this planet, and I don't want us to wander again because of your paranoia."

The man looked into the old man's eyes and said seriously. After hundreds of years, he had already developed feelings for this land and regarded it as his second home, so he was unwilling to watch it go to destruction.

"What do you mean? I know what I'm doing and I don't need you to teach me how to do it."

The old man also showed impatience with the man's words. He waved his hand, wanting the man to leave.

"You asked Sora to bring new people over, right? Don't you consider the impact this will have on the mortal world?"

However, the man did not stop there, he continued talking.

"The people we brought here have all been screened, so nothing serious will happen. Besides, even if something does go wrong, Blythe and the others will help us solve it."

The old man was a little tired, so he stopped arguing with the man and left alone and returned to his room.

"Look at him! He just knows how to push everything onto others! Why should we let others clean up our messes? Can't we solve this problem from the root?"

Looking at the old man's back as he left, the man spoke angrily to the woman beside him.

"Okay, okay, it's not like you don't understand. He won't do anything particularly excessive."

The woman began to comfort the man, but the latter was still a little annoyed.

"If we treat the mortal world as our testing ground and the living beings as guinea pigs, we will be bitten back one day if we continue like this. The people living in this world are not guinea pigs. They have their own ideals and lives, and they also have their own loved ones."

The man looked at the woman with some loss. Facing this kind woman, the man began to speak his true feelings.

"That's why I chose to help them, so that as many people as possible can be with their loved ones. But that guy treated them as playthings and manipulated their fate at will. Is this really what the so-called gods should do?"

After saying that, the man looked at the woman in front of him and left with some disappointment.
