Chapter 121: Fate 2
What it was like to fall from a powerful person to a powerless ordinary person, Adam and Eve swore that they would never want to try again in their lifetime.
They didn't know what kind of means Yun Mo used, the latent energy in his body seemed to have been pressed on the door valve, and he couldn't even lift it up for half a minute, just like the water in the palm of his hand, he could obviously feel the soft texture, but he still couldn't stop the speed at which it was quietly draining.
Since she was left in the mountains yesterday, their situation is really not good. In the past, he could still rely on the ability of the space system to run rampant, and forcibly crush people or things that were not pleasing to the eye. But now, they can only sneak between the mountains in fear, searching for the road to the base camp.
It's only a kilometer away, and they crawled all night.
During this time, they encountered a lone alien cub, and their half-human-tall dragon creatures were outrageously strong, their fangs and claws cutting through their pampered skin, leaving a series of hideous and terrifying scars, with the smell of fragrant blood spreading, they had no doubt that in the next second, a large number of aliens would rush over and eat them.
The shadow of death looms over my heart. Stripped of all pretenses, they are essentially just two children.
Eve's heart-rending screams echoed in her ears, just like the countless ordinary people she remembered who had been killed by them, and she erupted into a terrible howl before her near-death, as if death was a terrible thing.
They had been dismissive of death, and they only thought it was a coward's mediocre self-infliction, and it was not worth mentioning at all. But. When it was their turn to face death, they realized that their previous arrogance was so ridiculous.
What is the Adept? Why was the Adept born? It is not a person who is born out of a deep fear of death that has stimulated the potential of life. Others do. The same is true of them, a qiΔ mutation evolution, but just to survive.
The two of them are so naΓ―ve.
Adam had forgotten how he had returned to the camp, and he was as badly wounded as Eve. Both of them are carriers of high-concentration viruses, and the nutrients contained in their blood are enough to make that alien cub crazy. So. It shouldn't be possible for the cub to let them go, but now, how could he ......
"Wake up." The sky glows. The meager light penetrated through the cracks into the tent, and Amir wrung a wet towel to wipe the cold sweat from Adam's forehead and said, "The next day." Congratulations on being alive. β
Adam's gaze gradually focused on one place. His gaze fell on Amir's face as if he were in a different world, and he murmured, "Eve...... Ability ......"
"Eve is still alive, but your abilities will be blocked for a while." Emil remembered the scene last night when the two children covered in blood were thrown into the camp by Yun Mo, and took out the lines that Yun Mo commanded, stating, "She said, when will it be enough to reflect." and you will be freed from your bondage. Without the mind of introspection, it is better to be an ordinary person all the time. β
Adam clenched his fists sharply: "She doesn't have the right to make decisions for us!" β
"She has." This time. The fastest to retort was Amir, who looked into Adam's eyes with a look of disappointment, "Just because she is better than you, because you are a tool, because you disobeyed her." β
"Adam, you know better than Eve what path you have chosen." "Scott gave you a choice, and you like to be a tool. It is true that being a tool will give you more resources at your disposal, and some information handovers will not shy away from you. But, you guys, you really shouldn't have done anything to the researchers. β
"That made Scott decide to give up on you." "He has mercy on your talents, and for the sake of protecting the base of Idasa, he has sent you here. Because, in this part of Australia, no one pays for your actions anymore. β
"This is Yun Mo's punishment." Amir smiled weakly, and said with an obscure look in his eyes, "Adam, your 'new master' is not a good stubble, and if you play tricks under her nose, she will definitely kill you." β
Adam closed his eyes, as if trying to reject these irresistible facts.
"Yun Mo hated those who disobeyed orders, especially on the battlefield. The biggest mistake you made was to overstep her authority and use her soldiers. Amir got up and patted her crumpled garment and lifted a corner of the tent, "You don't care about human life, she thinks it's more precious than you." β
"Adam, have you really figured out your future positioning?"
The curtain of the tent fell, obscuring all the light, and the space inside was quiet again. Adam turned his head to look at the unconscious Eve beside him, for a long time, as if looking through her into their past.
Parents, zombies, gunsmoke, ruined cities...... The only thing they learned in the last days is that the weak have no right to live.
What's wrong with that! If ordinary people don't die for the supernatural, what value do they have? Isn't it normal for the survival of the fittest for the sake of the evolution of civilization? The meaning of ordinary people's existence is to strive for more resources for the supernatural, because because they are special, because they are the main combat force, they deserve to enjoy a qiΔ!
But why? Are they going to be punished? For the sake of a group of dispensable ordinary people, accept unwarranted punishment!
Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to think about this kind of question anymore.
Outside the camp, the consuls of all countries formed a circle, and Yun Mo, who had fought bloodily for half a night after leaving last night, spread a map on the ground, pointed to the desert area with one hand, and said in a cold tone: "Here, the Victorian Desert and the Great Sand Desert, the entire area, are high-risk areas. β
"My comrades-in-arms and I stepped on the point, and the shape is not optimistic." Yun Mo continued, "You should know that Australia is an independent continent in the southern hemisphere, and before it was discovered, it was a pure land that had not been in contact with the outside world for centuries. In the same way, its ecosystem is quite independent and self-contained. β
"Australia is primitive, and the creatures on the continent retain relatively primitive gene chains." Saying this, she paused, picked up the marker and circled the place, "In other words, the aliens born from these creatures are more threatening than the monsters born in the rest of the places. β
"For example, the Australian brown snake in the desert." Yun Mo directly gave Xiao Chen a look and ordered him to bring those precious rations over.
Xiao Chen said goodbye, even though he knew that no one was robbing him of food here, but he felt uncomfortable thinking about the real rations in his eyes and the real specimens in the eyes of humans on the table. Come to think of it, in the end, he still has to do it.
He turned and trotted to a distance from the camp, then crouched down and quickly dug up the dry ground. Xiao Chen's hand was like a high-end plow, digging down more than a meter in minutes, and then resisted a poisonous snake corpse with a thick bowl mouth from inside.
Everyone: When did the "......" bury him?
Carrying the rations and placing them in the center of the camp, let everyone come to observe and observe, Xiao Chen stood aside with his arms folded, staring vigilantly at the group of people who were doing his work on the rations, his eyes were cold.
"Unbelievable." A skinny Australian young man fiddled with the snake's body, his face full of horror, "The brown snake is one of the top ten highly venomous snake species in the world, and I have never seen a brown snake that can be found five or six meters long." β
"Well, Australia accounts for a lot of the top ten venomous snakes in the world." Yun Mo added, "With a diameter of twenty centimeters and a length of six meters and two, it can only be regarded as a cub of the alien species. But look at its head. β
She stepped forward and flipped the triangular head of the snake, revealing a large bag on its skull. In the exclamation and whisper of others, she turned over the snake body again, pointed to the two small cocoons that emerged from under it, and said calmly: "The atavistic evolution is in advance. β
"Atavism?" Lieutenant General Tosk was the first to come into contact with the term, and Russia did not have a reborn person like Yunmo who could lay out an outline of biological evolutionary atavism, and like most countries, they were first exposed to a strange and inaccessible realm.
"Remember the dragon tragedy before the end of the world?" Yun Mo didn't talk much nonsense, and directly played a big card, "The atavism of snakes has a great possibility of developing in the direction of 'dragon'. β
"Shhhh And this sentence is too informative, and even everyone in the Huaxia camp was scared.
"The snake turns into a dragon, the carp jumps over the dragon gate, these ...... It's all legends, right? Zhou Yan tugged at the corners of his mouth and said uncertainly, "Mythological stories, can they be taken seriously?" β
"Myths and stories are legends for us, and facts are facts for ancient times." Yun Mo didn't argue, just exposed the topic, she didn't want to spend her time arguing about the theory of materialism and idealism, "If you don't believe it, dig open the crown and cocoon of the brown snake and see what is inside." β
Xiao Chen stepped forward resignedly, stretched out a piece of his fingernail and easily cut through the crown and cocoon of the brown snake.
At the same time, seeing what was inside, the onlookers were taken aback and said, "Claw...... Child? β
In the center of the crown of the head of the brown snake, an incomplete horn was exposed, and the cocoon sac on its lower abdomen slipped off two soft claws.
It was also until this moment that everyone looked at each other for a long time, and began to connect the two creatures that could not be beaten together by eight rods, but the more they thought about it, the more they felt chills.
"The more primitive the Australian creatures are preserved, the less difficult it is for them to return to their ancestors, and the level of happiness has not yet been reached, and the characteristics of the body surface have already diverged." Yun Mo looked at a group of Western soldiers and made an analogy that was easy for them to accept, "For example, your legendary dragon may be the evolution of a certain monitor lizard. β
"Bats can become vampires, wolves can become werewolves, and monitor lizards can become dragons." Yun Mo continued, "That's the reason, you know what I mean? β
Everyone: "......" would rather not understand! (To be continued......)
