257. The Ancient Gods
Su Zhe couldn't see through the young man in front of him.
Because he not only has great strength, but at the same time, he also knows a lot of secret things.
"The samples they gave me were actually very mature cell tissues. It is said to be mature because these things are not genes that have reached this level by mutation by accident and evolution in a short period of time. ”
Su Zhe peeked at the other party, and the young man still had a clear look.
His face was calm and calm, and he nodded, motioning for himself to continue.
"That level of evolution...... As far as I can judge, it must be a stable genetic state that can only be achieved after millions of years, or even longer, and it can even be said to be extremely stable, and it can rarely be changed under external influences. ”
"So, those cells you mentioned should be collected from the 'blood clan', right?" Zhuge Yun asked.
"That's right! You really know what to do! ”
Su Zhe now has a sense of admiration for this young man, and he seems to know all secrets.
He pursed his lips, sighed, and said, "But the funny thing is that I was like an ignorant child at the time, and I didn't think about anything other than to be shocked by those things. ”
"Haven't you ever wondered where the people from 'Ispartine' got them?"
"No, I was really curious, but I didn't have the heart to think about it, and I didn't have time to explore those things......"
"Well, I see, you're just a scholar after all."
"Scholars...... But I'm not stupid, who wouldn't doubt that they could get their hands on these living tissues at will? Of course, I thought about it, and it was human nature, but I quickly forgot about it...... Because, there were so many things that I needed to marvel at at that time. I was dazzled by the research results and hidden facts, and I didn't have time to think about those deeper things, but only wanted to understand the truth as defined by science. ”
"Well, you have a lot of expertise, but you limit your thinking about those aspects, after all, you're not a museum investigator or a detective, just a researcher."
"Perhaps, but as the results of the research continued to emerge, I began to have a delusion."
"Oh, what delusion?"
"I used their advanced technology to learn a lot of secrets. Technology far beyond the highest level of human beings has accelerated tens of thousands of experiments, and I have a trance that human genes are actually related to those creations. ”
Su Zhe glanced down at his hands, as if he wanted to see through them with his eyes.
"It's like...... The same base in a cocktail? Zhuge Yun smiled faintly.
"Yes, that's right! This metaphor is so vivid! How do you know? ”
Su Zhe felt this in his heart, this young man completely understood what he was trying to express.
The base liquor is also called the main liquor, the liquor base, as the name suggests, is the basic liquor, which plays a decisive leading role in the cocktail and is also the leading element in the cocktail.
With a good base wine, you can create a myriad of deep and vast flavors, which can be said to be the foundation of the ever-changing cocktail, such as rich aroma, strong and refreshing, and exotic.
Like red wine with cola, white wine with sprite are simple cocktails.
He hadn't done much research on the liquor, but he had at least heard of it. Of course, I also knew how the cocktail was made, so I nodded in the affirmative.
"The more I learned, the more confused I became. You know, it's human nature, curious about the unknown, and unscrupulous to find out the essence of everything. As my research deepened, they gradually let go of my authority, and I was really pleasantly surprised that I could ask for things that I had never dared to expect before. His tone was a little agitated again.
"For example, using the blood of practitioners as a sample for research......
"Well, that's an inevitable consequence. After all, you're ultimately going to serve them. Zhuge Yun nodded and said casually.
"Then I discovered the secrets that were hidden in the depths! Do you believe that faith alone can regenerate a broken optic nerve? And the potential in their genes, which is almost limitless energy. There is certainly a limit to human potential, but no one knows exactly where that limit lies. ”
"Like this ......"
After saying these words, Su Zhe suddenly stared at the young man in front of him, unbuttoned his shirt, and exposed his chest.
A faint blood-red color appeared on its body, like transparent skin, and even the blood and veins flowing below could be clearly seen.
"Uh-huh, they modified your body, didn't they?"
Zhuge Yun's expression was still not too surprised-he had long known that Su Zhe's body had broken through the so-called "boundary" of human beings.
"Nope! I did it myself! ”
The veins on his forehead were knotted, wriggling like earthworms, and a small bulge appeared, right in the middle of his eyebrows.
"Oh I see......"
Zhuge Yun's divine sense detected that the other party's body was undergoing some kind of change, and the bulge in the middle of his forehead was transparent and bloody, faintly revealing a trace of strange energy.
The small granules covered with blood after the bulge cracked a thin slit horizontally, the connective tissue stretched open the blood vessels, and the flesh burst out, and a bulging crystal appeared in an instant.
On his forehead, the shape of an eyelid appeared, as if a third eye had grown.
"Heh-you're not simple, you actually used the power of ghostly energy to transform your body through 'stone water'."
Zhuge Yun's face was calm, and he slowly shook his head.
This was because he knew that the pineal gland in Su Zhe's brain had been fused by ghost energy, and it was several times larger than that of a normal human.
The optic nerve also degenerates and becomes a secondary sensory ability. That is to say, he has also begun to have the rudiments of divine consciousness, and the senses of his body are far more than many times sharper than ordinary cultivators, and if they are well controlled, they will also form many powerful abilities.
However, unfortunately, this body has not evolved completely.
Although I don't know how many tribulations he went through to open this "Heavenly Eye", he is still far from reaching his ultimate form - evolution has no end.
"I don't know if this body is human or not, but I do...... There's no going back! This is an awareness I have had from the very beginning. At that time, I swore that if I survived, I would seek revenge on those who persecuted me! ”
Su Zhe gritted his teeth and said, the resentment in his heart that had been suppressed for hundreds of years seemed to explode at this moment.
"But weren't you protected by 'Ispartine' at the time? Who can force you to do what you don't want to do? ”
"Nope! It's not 'Ispartine' but someone else, the one I mentioned earlier, who wants to assassinate me. And not only that, but they also stationed an undercover agent in 'Ispartine', his name is Li Yinlong, to act as my assistant. ”
Su Zhe clenched his fists and bit his lower lip with his teeth.
"Huh? Li Yinlong...... Li Yinlong, well, I've heard this name somewhere, and I seem to have a little impression. Zhuge Yun was also slightly stunned when he heard this name, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"I've been to places where Ispatin was hidden, can you believe it? It was their prison, which had existed for an unknown number of centuries, holding ancient creatures from unknown sources. ”
"Prison ...... Do they have some prisons? Zhuge Yun was a little surprised.
I see, those ancient creatures still exist on this planet. Thinking of the energy it possessed, Zhuge Yun couldn't help but show a greedy look.
"Hmmm! Yes, I'm sure, and there's more than one place. There are towering trees hundreds of meters high, unnamed places covered in thick ice, fossilized shells on walls that look like sedimentary rock, and ruined buildings surrounded by magma that do not belong to any of the recorded dates, and so on......"
Su Zhe didn't notice the change in the young man's expression, and said in a tone of awe while searching and reminiscing in his memory.
"Hmm...... Interesting, you don't know where those places are, right? ”
"Yes, but there, I saw the source of those living cells, the creatures sleeping in strange huge containers, among them the 'Blood' and 'Wolf' you mentioned earlier."
Zhuge Yun nodded, but did not speak, he finally figured out something.
"The first time I saw those humanoids, I was terrified. They are very numerous, at least not in the place I went. After that, I began to stay there for a while, and those 'people' were inhibited by drugs in their normal state, and they were no different from us humans in appearance. ”
Su Zhe paused and continued: "Through my research, their genetic structure and number of bases are very similar to humans, and they are indeed inextricably linked with humans, and they are almost immortal creatures. But they are bloodthirsty, and it is difficult to eliminate the unique trait of that gene by drug inhibition alone. ”
"It's just a race influenced by the ancient gods, and although the truth of this world has always made people mad and desperate, humanity has always had the courage to face their abyss, which will never change. Forget it, you'll learn about these things slowly. ”
Zhuge Yun's indifferent words came, making Su Zhe a little confused.
"I ...... I don't know what you mean, but what do you mean by the ancient gods? Su Zhe asked suspiciously.
"If you really want to know, I'll tell you about it later, but for now, I want to know about your experience first, for example, why do those werewolves call you 'Lord'?"
Su Zhe smiled miserably and said, "When you talk about this, you may not believe it." In that prison, I came into contact with a creature that was imprisoned, and I found that the creature had a very high level of intelligence, and after a brain tomography, it was found that the connections of neurons were extremely complex but very organized, and the order of magnitude was several times that of humans, but due to long-term drug inhibition, its vital signs were already very weak, although I tried to find a way to prolong its life, but in the end they all failed. ”
Zhuge Yun frowned and asked, "The appearance of that creature, does it have many pale pink tentacles on its head?" ”
"That's right! But you—How do you know? Su Zhe was taken aback.
"That creature is called the 'Moon Beast', and it is an independent subordinate race that has crossed countless star systems in search of a place to settle, and it should be a creature left here."
"Oh my God! You've seen them. ”
Su Zhe was stunned and completely convinced, where did this young man come from? I know it in such detail.
