Part III. Chimera

 

Chapter 73 Neo Galaxy (2)

 

The Chimera that returned to the Creator was about to run out of life due to Dr. Girgo's harsh experiments. The Creator glanced and immediately understood how the human beings had treated the Chimera. The chain of Galaxy's genes was mercilessly severed and reconnected after some of the genetic information was removed.


 The Creator was dismayed and then enraged to learn that it was human beings who cut the gene chain. Whereas only the Creator could cut the chains, human beings have violated the sanctuary. The Creator had been watching over human evolution with confidence, but he realized that evolution of human beings was now out of his control.

 

The Creator, however, got some relief when he checked the scars of the reconnection of the genetic strands that mutated from Galaxy to Chimera. It indicated that the reconnection was made not by human beings but by the Chimera itself.

 

Dr. Girgo tried to reconnect many times, but failed. Through the frequent mutation process, the Galaxy’s fertility rapidly weakened. But the Galaxy tried to survive and managed to reconnect its genes and mutated into the Chimeras with utmost effort. Dr. Girgo cultivated the mutated Chimera. As the result, two species co-existed on the Earth. One was the Galaxy which continued to live outside Girgo's laboratory and another one was the mutant Chimera in the laboratory. They began to struggle each other for survival. Then one of the Chimera flew out into space and asked the Creator to restore the order.

 

The Creator regretted that it was too late to notice how the human evolution was so fast. At the first stage of human history, the Creator warmly watched as human beings walked upright and used tools to improve their living condition. However, human beings evolved to explore physics, and manipulated nuclear power. He mastered molecular biology, and performed genetic manipulation. The Creator began to seriously worry that human beings would lose control of themselves and eventually cause a stampede for suicide.
