Volume 1.The Choice of Fate Chapter 71. Love and intrigue
Trembling his palms slightly, Mu Chen stroked the barbed protrusions that appeared out of thin air on Zhang He's right arm and right shoulder, for Mu Chen, who had devoted his life to biotechnology, the scene in front of him was so exciting.
When he first saw the power of the Devourer when he was young, he made a great wish in his heart to be a great scientist who could help the Devourer reach a higher realm.
At this moment, seeing Zhang He's right arm and right shoulder, especially the mysterious runes engraved on his muscles, Mu Chen's mood could no longer be described as excited.
It's like opening the cracks in the door of a treasure house in front of an adventurous and money-loving person, and the jewels inside are shining brightly, regardless of how much treasure there will be in the end. The psychological stimulation and thirst satisfaction alone is enough to drive the person standing in front of the door into madness.
Although Mu Chen is well aware that there may be many dangers and difficulties to overcome in the face of treasures within reach, as a scientist, he also knows very well what sometimes an obvious goal and direction represents.
From today on, Mu Chen thoroughly understood Professor Sima's pursuit of ancient ancestral civilization, although he was not a biologist, just a professor of history.
But a miracle that has never been discovered and a civilization that is not recognized by the world can shine in its own hands, and at the same time be accepted and worshiped by the world, until then. For scientists, it's all worth it.
This is only the superficial vanity, but more of the recognition of one's perseverance and persistence, which is the satisfaction that is difficult to exchange for thousands of gold wealth.
Immediately, Mu Chen stared at Zhang He and asked softly and suspiciously, "You, how do you feel now?" ”
"In addition to the strength, there is nothing special compared to before, if it was just muscle expansion, now you can clearly feel the energy in the right arm that can be vented at any time!" Zhang He raised his right arm, and said with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
For him, who has a rune right arm, he actually doesn't know much more about the power of runes than Mu Chen, and the only difference at this stage may be the difference between the host and the bystander.
But from a psychological level, Zhang He is different from Mu Chen in that the power of runes is the power that can control his life in the future, and it is also the power that can protect all the people he cares about.
But for Mu Chen, it was different, behind the power of the runes was the ancient ancestor civilization, which was a past that had never been officially confirmed, and it represented more unknown biotechnology.
Thinking of biotechnology, Mu Chen hurriedly walked to the corner of the wall, rummaged on the messy ground, and then opened a sealed bag and took out the blood drawing needle inside.
Seeing what Mu Chen was doing, the corners of Zhang He's mouth showed a helpless smile, but Zhang He, who was once a top student, and was ready to enter the Halle Institute even when the gene deletion rate was unqualified, was not unable to understand Mu Chen's behavior.
Immediately, Zhang He's eyes slowly closed, adjusting his breathing rate as much as possible, and the originally swollen right arm and right shoulder no longer returned to the body as before, but began to decompose on their own like hot steam.
With a large amount of hot steam, Zhang He's right arm and right shoulder returned to their normal size, but the strange thing is that although the swollen muscle tissue disappeared strangely, the runes carved on the muscles did not disappear.
On the contrary, after being reduced by a few points, it is carved on Zhang He's right arm and right shoulder like a tattoo, which makes him look a little more wild and artistic.
Seeing that his body had returned to normal, Zhang He also looked left and right in novelty, and then stretched out his right arm in front of Mu Chen.
Without any polite hesitation, Mu Chen gently sent the needle into Zhang He's right arm, and after a tube of bright red blood was withdrawn, Mu Chen was like a child who had obtained a novelty toy, with a smile on his face.
Then he turned around and walked towards the aisle, with his back to Zhang He and Mu Xiaoxiao at the same time, and said softly: "I'll go to another laboratory for a preliminary test, and we'll talk back later!" With that, he left the laboratory impatiently.
Seeing Mu Chen's back, Zhang He shook his head helplessly and chuckled a little, but when he moved his eyes to Mu Xiaoxiao's body, he found that the girl who had always been strong in Zhang He's heart, was very aggressive, and could even take the initiative to confess to himself.
At this moment, his eyes were already full of tears, and he stood aside in a daze, staring at himself affectionately.
In an instant, Zhang He's heart seemed to be pulled by something, although it hurt, but it was more of a touch, and then, Zhang He walked slowly towards Mu Xiaoxiao.
I wanted to open my arms to give her a hug, but just as he raised his arms, Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly rushed towards him, hugged his waist, and at the same time buried his head deep in his chest, crying softly.
At this moment, Zhang He didn't know how to comfort Mu Xiaoxiao, but he was not an idiot, he knew that Mu Xiaoxiao was an emotional catharsis after witnessing his turn from danger to safety.
In other words, this is the embodiment of Mu Xiaoxiao's deep love for himself and his closeness, and then Zhang He silently folded his arms and hugged Mu Xiaoxiao's body tightly in his arms.
At this moment, for the two of them, what revenge, what rune power, what messy laboratory, and even Mira, a woman who always jumps out, can all be left behind.
At this moment, the two people who hugged each other just wanted to make each other's hearts blend together quietly.
……
On top of an abandoned earthwork hill, a man in a black robe slowly pushed his hood back to his head, revealing his face.
The fair face is slightly powdered makeup, the willow eyebrows are curved with light lip gloss, and the expressionless face makes it look a little cold, this person is Mira.
Just now, it was she who used the method of assimilating her teammate An Sili to control Sauron, but just after she showed her face, another figure suddenly fell beside her, and after she slowly stood up, she found that it was An Sili.
"Eldest sister, everything has been arranged, and during our entry into the third sector, the other new humans will also proceed according to the plan you have made, and it will not affect the final progress in any way!"
Hearing what An Sili said, Mi Li just nodded slightly, and continued to stare at the off-road vehicle that had left!
Following Mira's gaze, An Sili's brows furrowed slightly, and she asked suspiciously: "Eldest sister, the thought borer in your body is not infinitely reproducible, why don't you assimilate a few more brothers and sisters like you build and share with me, but choose self-heating people?" And it's two, and more importantly, they're not high-ranking people, right? ”
After sighing slightly, Mira said softly: "It's not that a high position helps us a lot, on the contrary, there is such a saying in the history of natural people, called 'Hades is good, but the little ghost is difficult', although I don't quite understand what kind of existence the identity of the person in the words is, but the semantics can still be understood!" ”
"Besides, at this stage, Minister Li has no effect, on the contrary, this Sauron, as long as everything goes well, he will definitely become a pivotal figure in the natural person area in the future, as for Minister Li, it will take a while to make him disappear, there is an old qualification like him in the Devourer Base to suppress it, and some things are very difficult to do!"
Hearing Mi Li's words, An Sili nodded understandingly, but at this moment, Mira suddenly asked, "How is the investigation of the people who attacked Zhang He at night?" ”
Shaking her head slightly, An Sili did not respond.
It's just that Mira didn't say anything to blame, but patted An Sili on the shoulder and said: "It's really difficult for you, after all, there are too few clues, but you must think of a way, I always have a feeling in my heart that this person who attacked Zhang He will have an uncontrollable impact on our plans in the future!" ”
With Mira's words, An Sili nodded seriously, and then disappeared after a wave of weakness in her body, leaving Mira alone, still standing on the earthwork hills.
Then, Mira slowly squatted down, gently picked up a handful of dirt and sand with her hands, and exhaled lightly between her lips and teeth, revealing the weeds that had withered and yellowed between the sand and dust.
Gently pinching it with her slender fingers, Mira stared at the weeds in front of her in a daze, and after a few minutes of silence, a faint green glow slowly rose on her palm.
Immediately afterward, the already yellowed weed turned into a verdant and fresh plant at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even accompanied by a breeze, enough to gently flutter on Mira's fingers and dance with a natural charm.
In the next second, Mira slowly re-tied it to the ground, then stood up, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, and said softly: "Although it is an underground cave, it is too desolate here, let me help a little!" ”
The moment the words fell, a dense layer of green fluorescence appeared on Mira's body, and then she turned and walked towards the bottom of the earthwork hills, but as her feet moved, almost every step of the lotus, and a small patch of green vegetation was born on each footprint.
That is, when Mira walked down the earthwork hill about ten meters high, behind her, a green vegetative trail also appeared out of thin air, and then this winding vegetative path began to spread in all directions.
Under the rays of the artificial sun on the top of the underground cave, in an instant, the originally desolate earthwork hills were directly transformed into green hills.
Smiling back, a happy smile appeared on Mira's face, even as the most frustrating healing of plant-based abilities, as long as it is used properly, there is no possibility of creating feats.
It's just that the natural man's view of the new humanity is like a cure in this plant system, which has long been ingrained, and now, Mira, as the supreme leader hidden in the new human group, has to make changes for the future of the new human.
Perhaps, after a while, the new humans will be freed from the slavery of natural people, and they will not have to waste their lives for a fate crisis that does not belong to them, just like what happened when they were trapped in the core of the Abyssal Beast Chieftain during the sniper war.
The new humans can sit down and communicate with the Abyssal Beasts peacefully, but for the native naturals, they will only think that this is predation and aggression from the underground.
Thinking of this, Mira's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled, and then the vegetation under her feet dried up instantly, and at the same time, Mira muttered softly: "Conceited, arrogant, inflexible natural people, you will pay for everything you have done!" With that, Mira's figure flickered, and her figure disappeared under the earthwork hills that had been revitalized.
However, what Mira didn't expect was that on a rock wall not far from the earthwork hills, a small mechanical lizard about the size of a palm crawled lightly.
Its surface layer even has a camouflage color changing function, if it weren't for its own movement, I'm afraid it would not be obvious from a distance that this is a mechanical life.
What's more, on the back of this mechanical lizard, there is a circular camera, and since it is the day when the artificial sun is shining, it is impossible to see its slightly flickering electronic signal.
However, judging from the form it revealed, the scenes of Mira, Zoro, and even the last Ansri have already been recorded by it and transmitted to an unknown place, and it is obvious that everything about Mira is also being closely monitored.
