Chapter 538: Amnesia? No problem!

"You say he's gone mad?"

After hearing Genos' statement, Fang Mo turned his head with a smile, a knowing smirk crossing his face: "Hehe, madness is good... Who among us isn't a bit mad?"

"This..."

Genos seemed stunned upon hearing this.

After a while, he hesitated and then asked, "So... Mr. Fang Mo, how should we handle him now?"

"If he's gone mad, he probably isn't much of a threat anymore."

Fang Mo looked at the doctor on the ground, who was babbling foolishly, and a gleam like that of appreciating a new toy flashed in his eyes: "For now, let's just capture him, and we'll see after we've explored his base."

"Alright."

Genos, without doubting, nodded, then somehow produced a bundle of steel rope, tied the doctor's hands, and grabbed one end of the rope to prevent him from suddenly running away.

"Okay, let's go."

Seeing Genos tying up the miserable doctor, Fang Mo gestured grandly and was ready to randomly explore the other's base.

However, just at that moment.

Saitama, who had been watching the show, started to ask questions.

"By the way."

Saitama looked at Fang Mo curiously: "Didn't you just say you support the theory of the House of Evolution? Why then did you drive this guy mad?"

"Of course, I support his theory."

Fang Mo, hearing this, replied as a matter of course: "But his theory has some flaws, like his ideas are too extreme, such as wanting to kill humanity if it doesn't evolve... Obviously, that's unacceptable."

"But wouldn't he become even more extreme after going mad?"

Saitama asked.

"Ah, that's where you are mistaken."

Fang Mo laughed upon hearing this, then explained: "There's a phrase in my hometown called 'destruction before reconstruction,' which also applies to Doctor Genus. You see, although he's gone mad now, it might actually be a good thing, as there's only a thin line between a madman and a genius..."

"Although I don't quite understand, it kind of makes sense."

After hearing Fang Mo's explanation, Saitama scratched his head, seemingly accepting his nonsensical talk.

"I see, destruction before reconstruction, huh?"

Genos, too, unconsciously nodded: "So, to grow, one must destroy their current self, take down the enemy with a life-for-life approach, and then use the materials from the opponent to create new parts..."

"Don't misinterpret the meaning."

Saitama couldn't help but facepalm and complain when he heard this: "I've told you, Genos, don't be too extreme..."

"Sorry, sensei, I have reasons I must become stronger."

Genos bowed his head upon hearing this, but soon added: "But if Saitama-sensei thinks it's wrong, I'll be careful in the future."

It's worth mentioning.

While Saitama and Genos were listening to Fang Mo's ramblings.

Ancient One was just silently watching the people in front of her, especially Saitama. Perhaps because they both had bald heads, at the moment, she even felt a bit of sympathy for him being deceived by Fang Mo.

After all, she had been led into the trap by Fang Mo step by step herself.

But these were ultimately just her inner thoughts; the people in front of her didn't know about this bald sorcerer's internal struggles, so very quickly, everyone began to explore the base.

The so-called base of the House of Evolution.

Was not just the white tower they had just seen.

Under Doctor Genus' meticulous design, the base of the House of Evolution was divided into two parts. The ground-level white tower was just a decoy, containing nothing but traps and no valuable items, and it had also been blown up by Carnage Kabuto with a punch just now.

Doctor Genus' real stronghold.

Was actually hidden underground.

In the original story, Saitama accidentally discovered an iron door, which he lifted to uncover its secrets.

But now, due to Fang Mo's involvement, the plot had changed... When Carnage Kabuto had charged out earlier, he directly smashed the iron door, and now a big dark hole on the ground clearly marked the way to the underground base.

It must be said, the underground base of the House of Evolution was quite large.

There was none of the usual darkness and dampness typical of underground places; instead, these passages were very spacious and bright. The floors and walls were covered with silver metal plates, and with white fluorescent lights, it all looked very clean.

"So... where do we go from here?"

After walking for a few minutes, Saitama couldn't help but ask: "This place looks like a maze. Do we have a map or something?"

"Sensei, is your sense of direction that bad?"

Hearing his sensei's complaint, Genos immediately responded: "Don't worry, sensei, I've memorized the path we've just taken and am currently mapping it in my brain."

"This place is indeed pretty big."

And hearing the conversation between the two, Fang Mo couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of maze-like underground lab... Tsk, these damn memories."

He couldn't help but recall some past memories, though mainly those involving his partner playing Minecraft, who always liked to build labs underground.

But compared to the previous reminiscing and regrets.

Fang Mo felt a completely different mentality now, even a bit smug, barely restraining a smile.

After all, he had also often gotten lost underground before.

But later, after figuring out the minimap, no matter how complicated the maze, he wouldn't get lost again.

After wandering around a bit here.

Fang Mo quickly unlocked his third mod.

It was a place that looked like a warehouse, with a huge glass storage tank filled with a light green substance that looked like nutrient fluid.

Following the system's electronic voice prompt, he walked up and touched it a few times, instantly unlocking a mod.

[System Prompt: New mod feature detected, research to obtain download permission.]

[System Prompt: "Container," "Liquid Storage," and other concepts researched, you have obtained download permission for a new mod.]

[System Prompt: Large Storage Tank Mod begins downloading.]

[System Prompt: Large Storage Tank Mod download complete, load now?]

[System Prompt: Large Storage Tank Mod loaded successfully.]

[System Prompt: As you have downloaded and run a new mod, you have obtained a Lucky Block, which will randomly draw one item from any known item.]

"...Hmm? Large Storage Tank?"

Hearing the name of this mod, Fang Mo paused for a moment.

Of course, it wasn't that he had never played with this mod, but the mods adding storage tanks to the Minecraft world are too numerous, almost every industrial mod comes with its own storage tank, like Tinker' Construct, Thermal Expansion, Industrial Age, Immersive Engineering, Railcraft...

Of course, there are also many independent storage tank mods.

Fang Mo momentarily couldn't recall which mod this so-called large storage tank belonged to.

But fortunately, his current permissions were still quite high, and while he couldn't forcibly enable creative mode, checking the config file was definitely no problem. Thus, he took a mental glance at the thing's config file.

And after a brief look, he came to a realization.

"Wooden storage tank, stone storage tank, copper storage tank..."

Fang Mo glanced at the config file, and a flicker of understanding crossed his face: "Oh, so it's this one, the nesting doll mod..."

Yes, that's right, this storage tank mod could be described as the most standard nesting doll.

The large storage tank was originally developed to replace the storage tank towers of building mods, becoming an independent small mod, but the storage capacity of this mod's tanks... frankly, it's a bit outrageous, it can hold up to 1,048,576,000 millibuckets.

If you do the math.

That's about a million barrels of fluid.

Of course, the most outrageous part of this mod isn't the storage capacity, since there are even more absurd ones like the quantum tank above it, but the most magical part of this mod lies in its crafting method.

Simply put, it has more than a dozen different levels of storage tanks.

Starting with wood, then stone, copper, tin, iron, bronze... Each level's construction requires four tanks from the previous level, just a mechanized infinite nesting doll, although simple, it's also not really logical.

Normally speaking, if Fang Mo didn't play industrially, he definitely wouldn't need such a large capacity storage tank.

After all, the fluids in the vanilla version are just that few and not very useful.

But just before that, he had unexpectedly unlocked the correct use of the Knowledge Book, which is to become stronger by consuming books, and in the Thermal Expansion mod, experience itself can become a type of fluid.

That is, liquid essence of knowledge.

Cough cough... that is, liquid knowledge essence.

Unlike multi-block structures, the large storage tank is an independent block that can even retain the fluid inside when knocked down.

So thinking of this.

An idea came to Fang Mo's mind.

If he could fill this thing with knowledge essence and then materialize it, could that become a new way to become stronger?

Fang Mo had previously unlocked a mod called "Gluttonous Eating," which showed on Steve as being able to devour any conceptual entity, while on Fang Mo, it manifested as him having a second stomach.

So if he swallowed the storage tank directly... would he instantly become stronger?

Thinking of this.

Fang Mo was somewhat tempted.

"This place really is my blessed land..." He couldn't help but exclaim, then continued to explore the surroundings.

The subsequent exploration went as smoothly as before.

It wasn't long before Fang Mo touched upon a high-level generator mod in the energy room, although this was clearly a purely technological mod, which he hadn't really touched before.

Moreover.

He also touched upon another mod in a place that looked like a gene bank.

That was an add-on for the Forestry mod, called the Bee Synthesis Query, specially designed by a big shot to popularize the hybridization routes of forestry bees, although this was also a technological mod, not very helpful to him.

But not long after touching upon these few mods.

Everyone exploring the way suddenly heard a bunch of hurried footsteps.

Then soon after, numerous people looking just like Doctor Genus came rushing from various places, starting to attack them with firearms.

These were Doctor Genus' clones, which had also been mentioned in the original work. A single Doctor Genus certainly couldn't complete so much research by himself, so he made clones based on himself, but the specifics of this weren't really explained.

Out of curiosity, Fang Mo casually captured one to ask about it.

It turned out that these clones were also being controlled technically by the original.

In fact, early in the original story, when Doctor Genus faced Carnage Kabuto, he had said that it didn't matter if he was killed, since he had lots of clones, but at that time, Fang Mo thought this guy was really cool, having backed up his body and memory into countless duplicates, all working together to tackle the challenge of evolution.

However, after asking now.

He found that things weren't really as he had thought.

This was more like a method of consciousness transfer, moving his memory to another body when this one grew old.

And phrases like it didn't matter if he was killed, since he had lots of clones.

Were purely Genos' way to deceive Carnage Kabuto... after all, that guy's brain wasn't very good, though uncontrollable, he was unexpectedly easy to deceive.

But thinking about it, that also made sense.

If all these clones were just like Doctor Genus, the problems that would arise would be too many, even an outsider like Fang Mo felt it was unrealistic.

But indeed, it was thanks to these clones.

When Fang Mo dealt with them, he unlocked the fifth mod.

[System Prompt: "Underground Space," "Combat Elements," "Exploration Elements," and other concepts researched, you have obtained a new mod download permission.]

[System Prompt: Adventure Dungeons Mod begins downloading.]

"...Hmm?"

Hearing this voice, Fang Mo was somewhat unexpectedly raised an eyebrow.

After several technological mods, he had finally unlocked another adventure mod.

There's not much to say about this mod; it just adds many dungeons to the Minecraft world, which are quite large in structure, somewhat like abandoned mines combined with end fortresses, but correspondingly, there are also many reward chests, and what Fang Mo coveted was these reward chests.

Like things such as horse armor, golden apples, enchantment books, and such are secondary.

Mainly, this thing could yield Books of Ages.

You see, Fang Mo was still using the old method to find Books of Ages, either finding ordinary dungeon chests or searching the map for dimensional rifts, but neither of these methods was very efficient.

In contrast, the reward chests in the adventure dungeons were just too numerous.

After joyfully accepting this mod, Fang Mo continued to explore around, but actually, from the beginning until now, quite a lot of time had passed, as this place was really too big. Fang Mo was tireless because of the rewards, but everyone else was gradually becoming bored.

But just at that moment.

Saitama accidentally stepped on a trap mechanism.

The wall next to him recessed, and an electric net shot out from inside, enveloping the few people present.

It's worth mentioning that the power of the electricity wasn't great, probably designed with the initial intention of capturing alive, and since everyone present was a monster, they naturally ignored these electric currents, the only exception being Doctor Genus, who looked like a sieve from the shocks.

But the electricity seemed to stimulate a certain nerve of his, and suddenly, he jerked alertly.

Even though he had regained consciousness, his condition still seemed a bit off, as he looked around in a daze: "I... Who am I? Where is this? And who are you?"

"Hmm? Is this amnesia?"

Fang Mo had barely paid him any mind, but hearing this phrase unexpectedly turned to look at him, then suddenly a plan came to mind, and he smiled as he walked over: "Amnesia is no problem, let me tell you about your past."

"This first has to start from the evil spirits of the Tower of Babel…"
