On the battlefield, before Ren Xiaosu returned.
Yan Liuyuan started recalling in a trance the first time he met the Wolf King.
When he woke up in the endless darkness of Laboratory 39, he heard the angry roars of the trapped Experimentals who had awoken earlier than him.
The young Yan Liuyuan could feel the Experimentals' hunger for him. They craved his flesh and blood badly, and it was as though they could complete their transformation to Neo-Humans instead of staying as walking corpses if they devoured him.
He quietly left the laboratory. Unlike the Experimentals, Ren Xiaosu and he had been placed in a ward in the lab, not the cages that imprisoned the Experimentals.
It started snowing. Yan Liuyuan walked in the snow in a daze until he smelled the warm scent of blood.
The young Liuyuan trembled in fear as he tried to escape through the snow. But when he turned around, he heard the whimpering of a young wolf pup.

A message from weirdo and Legge:
Thank you all for being such patient readers in this tale of Ren Xiaosu. It has been fun translating and reading your comments, and I hope the quality was up to expectations. Every word chosen, and every character's motivations were analyzed to reconcile possible "out of character" behavior. It is my belief that translations should bring across the author's intended message in its most original form.
I know I took a long time clearing up at the end, but I know you'll understand. Yes, we're really reaching the end. My thoughts are that The Speaking Pork Trotter had planned out the story very well, and most side characters were not forgotten. Their backstories also endeared to me as I translated their parts. My personal favorite has to be P5092, depicting how everyone has two sides to them. Sometimes, you just can't judge a person if you don't understand their motivations. Who can forget Hu Xiaobai and Wang Yuexi, two side characters who aren't extraordinary in strength but made a difference in the Prosperous Northwest goal. Zero's story affected me pretty deeply as well.
If you're feeling empty after this, do check out my other translated work: I'm Really a Superstar on Webnovel. (disclaimer: the story might not be for everyone)
Alternatively, you can support me on patreon/legge if you like and appreciate the work I've done.
Also, please check out weirdo's work by searching @ wxw "the grandmaster strategist". He has been a great editor, and I often consult him when parts of the story did not add up.
Thank you, :')

Thanks for sticking with us for so long, and I hope you enjoyed the story!
