Chapter 37: The Pyramid
Li Deng’s death did not cause even a ripple.
The Third Military Factory continued its normal operations—its efficiency even improved slightly.
The workers felt grateful to the Qin family simply because they were allowed to eat the meals they were already supposed to have.
But none of this mattered to Qin Jun anymore.
In the era of modern weapons, the power of ordinary people had become infinitesimal, with no real possibility of affecting the upper echelons.
Especially in the apocalypse, the appearance of evolutionaries further weakened the voice of ordinary people.
Moreover, the baseline of ordinary people had dropped significantly—they would tolerate anything as long as they could survive.
It must be said that after the apocalypse arrived, the Qin family held an absolute advantage. Most of East Capital’s industrial district was still operational, producing a plethora of weapons, industrial products, and compressed foods daily.
For a long time, East Capital would have an ample supply of resources. This is why ordinary people preferred to be slaves here rather than leave East Capital.
Because in East Capital, at least they could survive.
Now, the internal situation in East Capital was quite stable, with pedestrians starting to appear on the streets, and even some entertainment venues emerging.
Classes were clearly divided.
At the top of the pyramid was, of course, the Qin family, high above everyone else.
Below the Qin family were high-ranking officials like Meng Mi and Zhao Yi, who could also be considered the aristocracy of East Capital, holding extraordinary status.
Next were the recruited evolutionaries, who had significant privileges. Then came small leaders like Hu Weimin, who were attached to the Qin family and held some power.
Below them were the administrative staff of various institutions, akin to government officials in the past, enjoying a decent life without worrying about food and drink, and even earning points for consumption.
At the very bottom were those without connections or abilities, the ordinary people. They toiled day and night in the Qin family’s factories, working only to earn enough to feed themselves.
This pyramid structure was unfair and irrational.
But it was very… stable.
……
In the past few days, Qin Jun had toured various industrial districts within the East Capital, making appearances in both administrative and military areas.
He officially announced to everyone that he had entered the Qin family’s decision-making circle. Although the subordinates of the Qin family had expected this, they were still somewhat shocked and moved.
At twenty years old, Qin Jun could now control the lives and deaths of millions with a single thought…
However, no one was dissatisfied; the Qin family was destined for Qin Jun in the future, especially considering he was an SSS-level gifted evolutionary.
Though only a month had passed since the apocalypse, people had fully realized the power of evolutionaries.
……
The black obelisk that had arisen in the northern part of East Capital was now completely controlled by the Qin family.
Qin Jun had stationed a division and more than twenty evolutionaries there. Biologists, linguists, and scientists from various fields worked tirelessly around the black obelisk, conducting research day and night.
No one knew how the black obelisk appeared, but that didn’t stop humans from studying it. The obelisk was engraved with numerous patterns and texts, depicting the fundamental rules of the apocalypse and more profound knowledge.
With these researchers, the Qin family quickly summarized a cultivation method.
And they immediately began secret human experiments in the research institute…
……
East Capital, Evolution Research Institute.
In a silver-white sterile room, Qin Jun slowly opened his eyes. The energy crystal in his hand had turned dull and colorless.
But corresponding to this, he felt the power in his body grow a bit stronger. He looked at the several-ton iron anvil in front of him, reached out with his right hand, and squeezed slightly.
The iron anvil immediately collapsed, making a piercing screech, its volume compressed by an invisible force.
In the analysis room outside the window, researchers quickly analyzed Qin Jun’s physical data and formulated the next round of training methods.
Qin Jun nodded in satisfaction and walked out of the room. Outside, a servant immediately handed him a prepared cup of tea, and a middle-aged man in a white coat approached.
“Young master, your evolution level should soon reach Level 3.”
This man, Zhao Bo, was the head of the Evolution Research Institute and the scientist with the deepest understanding of the black obelisk.
He led the team that established the evolution research institute and personally led a team to assist Qin Jun in his cultivation.
It must be said that while the apocalypse was a catastrophe for humanity, it was also an opportunity for transformation.
After the apocalypse, not only did evolutionaries appear, but the black obelisk also propelled technological advancements at a tremendous rate!
Qin Jun’s team recorded changes in his body data during cultivation. Using the information from the black obelisk, they devised the most suitable and scientific cultivation methods for him.
Such a luxurious cultivation team was probably unique in the world…
Qin Jun smiled. In just one month, he was about to become a Level 3 evolutionary. Apart from his innate talent, the team’s support was also invaluable.
“Director Zhao, you’ve worked hard.”
Hearing Qin Jun’s praise, Zhao Bo’s smile stretched to the back of his head.
In the apocalypse, these researchers also had to rely on powerful factions to maintain their extraordinary status.
Qin Jun was the future heir of East Capital, and becoming his confidant brought immense benefits to Zhao Bo and his family.
Zhao Bo then whispered, “Young master, the first batch of genetic potions has been successfully developed and is undergoing human trials.”
“If there are no issues, they can be put into use. By that time, your cultivation speed will reach new heights!”
The Qin family had swept through East Capital and nearby spatial anomalies, acquiring not only talent seeds and energy crystals but also genetic potions.
By analyzing the components of these potions and the information from the black obelisk, the research institute had produced the first batch of genetic potions.
Of course, for safety reasons, the potions weren’t immediately used, instead, they were tested.
What better experiment than human trials for precision and efficiency? Even if it was extremely cruel and inhumane…
