Six years ago, Jiang Bei and his team brought back over forty Huaxia children, but several of them were no longer among the living today.
However, Jiang Bei felt that this current Happy Island was even more terrifying than the last. The second letter had mentioned forcing young girls to become pregnant until an embryo containing their own DNA could be harvested, claiming that human stem cells were the most powerful cells available; one of their most common uses was cell reinfusion to restore youth, and furthermore, stem cells could be cultivated into any human organ or tissue. Beyond that, the girls’ bodies were also sources of precious adrenochrome—substances that high-ranking officials and the wealthy required to stay young forever. There were also placentas, umbilical cord blood, and the like; if you had the money, there was nothing you couldn't obtain.
Jiang Bei couldn't even imagine the kind of terror those girls must have felt on the island. There were others with peculiar fixations, too, and some of the children were not even ten years old.
